The simple dinner at Ishi Mura! ♥ Them!!!!! My group also gave its best for MC!! Hopefully we would get a good score ya!!!

Market News

Market is really bad, super bad. The psychology behind it is simply amazing. The recent announcement by Obama to cut banks risk taking caused investors to lose confidence. However, the re-election of ben bernake and the fomc meeting served to allay fears. At Dow Jones, Bellwethers like tech stocks reported earnings but yet stocks prices fell. This was apparently due to failure to meet the whisper no. ( a benchmark of expectations by analysts rather than the fundamentals).

Meanwhile, the STI index continues to fall and is thought to emulate the elliot wave theory. If it does, the estimated time it will get bullish again should be around May. Since it has reachhed the peak of the waves and looks ready to decline. OMG MAY!!! That's so long! Anyway it is kind of ambiguous anyway!!! Never enter the market now, wait for confirmation again such as a pullback to support line if you wanna play safe.

Tiger share fell like crazy on the third day of listing, which is kind of expected as people dumped their shares. The recent Tiger airline near miss accident also caused this. Alas the ryobi kiso IPO subscription period is over; not that i can get it anyway since it is on placement. But it's gonna be listed soon since it is now "PL" status on SGX. For those who wants a share of profits can catch it on the 1st day.

Hahahaha! something funny happened in eye on tuesday. People were discussing the use of Feng Shui to pick stocks for 2010.

Back to mugging. =) Bloody biz law.

真心真意谢谢你

Thanks to everyone who wished me an awesome 22nd birthday!!!! I feel so blessed to have such wonderful friends around me!!!!!

Anyway, school is really getting hectic. Week 3 has just passed and things are really heating up. At least CCA sessions like E.Y.E and Toastmasters cheered me up. I really gained a lot from them.

Toastmasters

Energiser techniques( the Kungfu laughter, Taichi laughter, 1m laughter, 1cm laughter, breathing techniques)

Grab your audience attention (tell a joke, story, ask a rhetorical question)

Ways to prepare for a table topic

1. Be confident (maintain eye contact)

2. Be professional

• organise your thought
• theme e.g. love, friendship
• theme must relate to the tipic
• one structure and three format (tell them, tell them what you want to tell, summarise them)

Three formats

1. Chronology (past, present, future)
2. 5 Ws ( Who, What, Where, When, How) to describe scenario
3. Story telling

market news

Major markets down (Hang Seng, Dow Jones and STI)

STI down to 2819. Support line at 2700. Enter STI ETF at this time?

Is yanlord a bubble now since so many money are being dumped into china's real estates. Matter of time before it tanks?

Tiger IPO is doing well and closed at 1.58 on friday. Wow. Matter of time before it tanks as well. Better dump them asap on Monday.

Back to mugging. =)

Succumbed to the minions inside my body........Temperature raging all time high. \

换个格式写博客，提了不少新鲜感！

为了要实现今年所下的“订单”，

最近真的把自己的生活弄得很忙，

但也觉得自己过得很充实哦 ＝）

我也在某个博客读到，

把自己的理想和目标写下来，

然后每天常常去看自己写下的梦想，

而且时时刻刻的去思考要怎么完成，

这些愿望就会真的成真。

这个理论可真有道理！ ＝）

Spirited Away (Reprise)

I stumbled across a beautiful guitar rendition of Reprise from my favourite animated movie Spirited Away.

In the film, Reprise reflects the unwavering spirit of the young girl Chihoro, as she struggles with the uncertainties of a strange world filled with japanese deities and gods in a bid to save her parents.

Totally enrapturing. God, how i wish i could play like this?? I can't find the guitar tablature for this arghhhhhhhhhhh

新年要来咯！

pUSH yourself

School is here. It's time for war. =X

I cannot cui this term.

Really put in a lot of efforts for the 1st week of school, and i am all determined to meet my new year resolutions. I really want this fervour to continue for as long as possible, but it will be tough once school gets into a high tempo mode around week 3.

A look into the list of stuff that i have accomplished in the 1st week.

1)Mastered 3/4 of the song 爱我别走。Maybe once i get good enough, i will upload a video of my guitar performance here.

2) Attended Toastmasters to improve on my presentation skills. There's always something useful to learn each session. I was especially impressed by the energising techniques used by a guest speaker to arouse the interest of the audience.

3) Went for a total of 3 gym sessions in a week. Need to lose weight by running and build muscle mass for the pull-ups.

4)Attended e.y.e investment club and learnt about the downfall of LTCM,and the capricorn effect which is the bullish phenomenon that is occurring right now in the STI. Stock prices are rallying with small caps doing the lead.

It was really awesome to have Strategica session in the classroom right beside e.y.e . It was therefore really convenient to catch up with old friends, though i don't have the time to play board games with them..

And class part is super irritating in school. I have no choice but to speak out more often than what i did in term 1. Forget all the embarrassment or shyness. There is no holding back and i really can't be bothered about what others think of me.

Strive onnnnnnnnnnn!

Happy new year 2010!

As usual, it's time for me to really get down and review what the past year has brought, and to set some motivational new year resolutions for myself.

2009 has been wonderful and awesome. And i met several of my objectives that were set way back in 2009, albeit not all. Some were not achieved due to priorities and expectations that changed along the way. A major regret was that i did not sit for the JLPT4 exam. There were two reasons for these. The first was due to my heavy studies commitments. The second was that it would forbid me from taking up the Uni Jap elective mod, which i would really love to take.

For this upcoming new year, I gonna be more ambitious and greedy. I gonna set more challenging goals for myself.

1)Obtain my personal dream GPA

2)Do 10 pull-ups

3)Really practise my guitar.

4)Pick up more investment knowledge (e.y.e)

5) Be more witty and eloquent

6) Master my juggling stunts (Set up of juggling CCA)

7) Improve my general knowledge.

Jotting these down really gets me all hyped up. Some are quite intangible i realise.

It's back to school time.
