I am potentially and willingly being conned by XYZ!!!

Ta daa.....

Just as the title said, "Yup, I am potentially been conned by XYZ already"

The story went like this:
This morning just around my lunch time, I received a sms from XYZ asking for a favor. Firstly he sms me asking how was I? Fine? Which I duly replied that I am fine. That's was when I felt something fishy already. XYZ has not contacted till now. Of course he must have something to ask from me. A favour? Wanna sell product to me?

And well... in the end, he confessed that he needed a favour from me. He told me he needed $Y00.00 for some emergency things. As I knew and understand his nature of occupation, it would be normal that he ran into cashflow problems. And in another way, I think he need the money for his wife. He wouldn't cheat me.

Anyway, I told him that my account does not have the $Y00.00 as if I lend him that amount, my account would fall below the permitted level and bank will start to charge me a penalty. We haggled for well and set it less $300.

As I was going to transfer him the money; I did some check on this guy sensing this guy might cheat my money. I called one of this friend. Unfortunately, this friend of his also not so close with XYZ. But from his view, XYZ seemed to be nice and honest. That's when I decided to lend him the money. I sms-ed him that I had transfered him the money. He promised me that he will return it by 5th of November.

An hour after I had transfered the money to XYZ, his fren called. He told me some of the not so nice thing bout XYZ and said sorry to me as he also din know it. That's when I thought my money will be gone for good. XYZ's friend apologised profusely on his recommendation, which I replied not his fault. All fault is mine as I was the willing party.

What I worried is not the money. I was worried on XYZ. Why he needs to borrow money in so sudden? Is he really so cash-trapped? Or is he purely want to cheat me of that meagre sum of money? I just hoped he really need the money I lent him for the emergency purpose as I do not want to see another friend to go down the devil paths.

And so I hope, he will keep his promise and return the money by 5th of Nov. Else, it will only show that he is a TRULY BIG LIAR. Singapore is not a huge place. If he has become a LIAR, sooner or later reality will haunt him.

I just hope he won't follow the devils' paths. And so, I shall always chant for his safety and his family that he will not be influenced by devils.

As the result will only yield by 5th November; that's why I said, "I am potentially and willingly conned by XYZ." Potentially as it does not hold the truth yet until 5th of November.

Time will tell. Let's just wait.

This on a Newsletter.......

Something caught my eyes while I was reading a newsletter.

There was this reader asking in a column on how to handle inappropriate interview questions for a job such as
"Do you have partner?" - or -
"Are you planning to get married?" - or -
"Where were you born?"

Well, for my part; I just do not understand why these questions are deemed inappropriate. Can anybody enlighten me on this?

For me, it does not matter as I do not think those questions are too personal. Probably these questions might be asked during ice-breaking session or the interviewer might want to have some chit chat.

Hmm.... In my opinion, as long as you answered the questions truthfully and professionally with proper gesture would be fine. Just my opinion though.

Vandalism at bus stop or an accident?

Low crime doesn't mean no crime. This is the slogan that I see everywhere in Singapore. It serves as a reminder to all the public that everybody has the responsibilities to be vigilant. Like the slogan said, "LOW CRIME DOESN'T MEAN NO CRIME".

See both the photos below. Is it an act of vandalism? or purely an accident?? I just wonder.

It was visible that the glass for the notice board had been smashed at the center.

The glass scattered around the floor.

Updates.....

Yeah, I know.... Lately I did not update my blog. Kinda lazy to update even though I have something to say. By the time I have the mood to update my blog, all my ideas had been blown away by the wind.

Before I forget again, below are two of the photos taken by Yi Fong during my CFG. She did not take a lot of photos as not much of the C1 NDP gang attended my CFG.

My so called "cool" pose.

Jasmine insist me in doing flasher pose. Just wonder is there any flasher smile so happily??

CFG has ended

My chapter CFG has ended successfully. I think it should be a success even though there is some communication problem between me with my chapter leaders.

I woke up this morning around 9.15am. Then Ching Fatt asked me whether I would be going for the final rehearsal at 10am. Wow.... got a shock in the morning. I said, "No leh. I was not informed." Then I think my answer has put him in an awkward position. He said, "Then probably they thought your dance is okay liao so they din inform you lor." Since I just woke up, I also blur blur and said, "Okay lor. Nvm la."

I continued my sleep. However, I felt a bit irritated already. How can they missed the point to tell me the final run through or rehearsal this morning at 10am. Sigh....

Then as I was waiting for bus, my leader sms me asking me where were I and lunch was provided for all the performers. Damn.... heng liao. Feel very irritated liao as now only tell me, plus raining quah. Hahaha.....

As I reached kaikan, a WD leader asked me.... "how come you only reach by now?" I just replied, "Nobody told me what time." She replied, "All suppose to meet at 10am ma." Duh.... That was when I realised there might be some communication breakdown liao. Anyway, I still feel they can start to sms or call me when I still did not show up by 11 or 12pm. But they din. So I guessed I was not supposed to come early lor.

While waiting for the show to begin, I started to realise luckily I need not to come early. Coz I felt I will be damn tired afterwards by just waiting and waiting. haha.....

To cut short the story, this time around, I did not do any mistake on my steps; just that I overheard those front rows spectators commenting I looked lethargic and out of breath. Hahaha... Old liao. No stamina.

And so.... our CFG has ended. I was congratulated by a lot of members that I have put up a good show. I felt happy that I did not disappoint them.

And later, Abishek asked me whether I can perform the same dance on 25th of Oct. I directly said, "Da meh!!!!" (Means No) I told him I will be going back to Msia to celebrate Deepavali with my wife ma. ^ ^

I really happy that our CFG is a success in my own terms as I saw a lot of people came to give us support. There are hiccups here and there, and we hope we will improve from here.

Thanks to all the WDs and MDs for their sporting attitudes. Just hope in the next round, I can involve fully from planning till execution.

HOORAY Telok Blangah CFG!!!!!

Be grateful....

We should be grateful with what we have.

We should be grateful to have a mum who takes care of you.

We should be grateful if your spouse is taking care of you.

I just finished doing house chores for more than 1 hour. sigh... kinda tiring. So guys, be grateful to your mum or your wife if you need not to do so. Even ironing all my shirts took me bout an hour. Geez..... Cant imagine how my mum do that while taking care of us when we were that naughty when we were young. ^ ^

So be grateful guys!!!!

Good News!!!!!

I had a good news!!!!

My sister has 2 offers to choose from.

Din really expect that she will have offers so soon. One from Prudential and another from GE. Think will let her choose her own.

Yippie..... I am so happy as I chanted that she will have offer soon.

It proves "No prayers go unanswered."
