House & Car
Havin a place of my own used to be far-fetched when i was a teenager… not even to mention havin a room of my own. However, e power of money brought by e ability to earn an income changed my situation! Got a place for myself & my family (finally, a place i called home) four years ago =) after movin ard for 9 to 10 times among rented rooms. Yes, i counted correctly.
People grow, people progress in life.. With 1 mom, 3 kids and 1 me, e sweet & cozy little nest of mine, though still has its warmth as far as im concerned, started to feel just a teeny bit cramp..
In recent years, well actually started late last year, i had this bigger dream of moving into a slightly bigger space. Thanks to my lil’ sis who tots are often verbal, i hope to provide her with her personal wardrobe & some privacy for the 3 of them.. E tot of gettin a 4-room flat soon became a desire..
At e same time, due to inconvenience & discomfort encountered on numerous occasions at work, and with slightly better income, i had this "fantasy" of treating myself better by helpin me work more efficiently with a 4-wheeler.. Juz at this juncture, mom announced her pre-matured retirement, and since my cpf has since been drained, i started dumpin cash into my tiny lodge.. my fantasy can remain a fantasy..
i’ve been very lucky to be endowed with strong willpower & a positive mindset. Im lookin fwd to my desire crystalizing in 2007 & maybe even my fantasy becoming a reality without havin me feel the pinch! Work hard and get there! Jia you!
