Marching into December

2012 is coming to an end. I always like December
if I have a generally good or OK year.

During postgrad days, I does not always like
December, in fact, with the end of
each day, I was moving to my
project deadline with nothing
to show. But then, it is
really testing oneself
to the limit.

This year, I am really looking forward to
celebrating December. I have more
spare time &  not much to
worry about.

The perfect thing is I have money to shop
as well, this is really quite a good year.
On a scale of 1-10, I would

give it at least an 8.

Next year, will be quite different so watch
this page!

_______________________________________________

Mid of November was army reservist. Some like
it and some dread it. I am pretty neutral
about it or rather I try to be positive
about the whole thing.

It is just that I find it a bit disruptive to my
work.

3 weeks really pass by very fast, when I was

on hospitalisation leave, the 3 weeks
were gone just like that. 

Seriously, Me Time is just so addictive. Sometimes,

I have so many ideas which I love to

execute, tt is why I really enjoy

whatever time I have for

myself.

At the end of every year, my resolution is

to eventually to have more ME

TIME. Things haven't work

according to plan but

hopefully I am in

the right direction.

The good thing about reservist is that I get to

meet new people. Some of them are

quite interesting or fun to chat 

When it comes to meeting people, I like to

meet people who are fun & humorous.

Nothing beats laughter. Meeting

pple with intention aka

'networking' is to me

a bad social habit,

a really bad

one.

I quite detest that because I believe that

when you are ready you will meet

the right people that will guide

you along. It might seem

pretty naive, but

it works.

In the end, I always believe, "It's gonna

come from the heart if you want

things to work up"

Near work place, the star vista finally opens. When I

was doing postgrad, I always look at the 

development near Bonua Vista MRT,

& I wonder how comes buildings

are built faster than my proj

progresses.

I told myself I must submit my thesis before the building

beside Star Vista was completed. Quite happy,

I manage to do it.

I don't quite like the design of the building, it has

a really unique design, but it has a very

overbearing feel to it which it makes

it entirely unlovable.

The open concept of the building is good though, I bet

it's really save the landlord a lot of electrical bills.

Most of it are F&B as will be the trend going

forward.

My favourite stall is Awfully chocolate.

The must try is the ice-cream. I first tried it with Wilson and
then a week later, I shared a pint with Sishan
& Junli.

The ice-cream is really good stuff, the best I have
in Singapore. The chocolate is so rich,
your taste buds will be happily
stimulated.

The truffles look nice too, but I haven't got to try it.

Awfully chocolate have gone a long way since their
signature chocolate cake. I am impressed
by the ice-cream & the pastry, good
stuff.

The franchise model should be quite profitable
for the owner but rental is always the
chief thing when starting a
business.

Luckily, the internet has gaven people
with small capital a fighting chance.
Internet has democratized the business
world, it is very liberating for
entrepreneur.
