From the privacy of a toilet...

Most of the time, in fact almost daily, I find the only place with the most privacy at my workplace is the toilet. It's quiet especially when classes are on-going. It's private because I can lock myself inside away from people. So this blog is coming while I am seated on the toilet bowl at my workplace. It's kinda sad and very restrictive n depriving.Unfortunately that's the daily situation at my workplace.

I have the freedom to go out (eat or dabao supposedly at lunchtime but I chose to go during my free periods. So that during lunch, the short break n rest time for students I am in the staff room, available. It's one of the thing I look forward to the most daily. A way to get away from everything for a while. A mood-changer. Lunchtime is a good time-out.

Been having a bit of sore throat... Trying not to fall ill and stomach today is not that great
that I get to sit on the toilet bowl thrice so far. At least I get a time to think, in relative peace n out-of-sight. Can't wait for weekend to come though I have that freaking $140 dinner this coming Fri.

Finished the biz in the toilet, now sitting on the kern in the carpark behind. Kinda just don't want to go and sit at my table... for a while. It's after exams, but lessons and cca are all resuming. Kinda hard cos some students are not in the mood to study n I am still feeling some of the normal fatigue that comes after all that marking.

Hmm... Feel like going out before this Fri. Where to and to do what... Havebt decided.

Anyway for my Groupons, next round of expiry is end-April. Definitely won't mind the redeeming. There's burger, premium sushi platter for me, Big O, Tung Lok, Lebanese food and the most recent one, Jap food at One Fullerton. Am thinking of getting the Genting trip to go with mom, that's if she could give me the convenient dates for her. Asked her yesterday. Hope she can give me an answer, it's 3D2N. Anybody? This month expense higher due to that $140... And some coupons too. Am trying to cut down but already overshot my usual expense level by a bit. Still got 8 days until the end of the month.

Stock market wise, I am re-reading the book that I gave to FH. Partly reading, translating important parts into Eng, writing it, trying to remember and also apply a bit. Just starting, will take a while. Waiting for more rise, hopefully the Greece debt won't have bad news. But as I am waiting for dividends from CapLand, would refrain from selling it. Also waiting for more upside for the more expensive lots that I've bought. Realized gains is 1 mth of nett salary. Not bad, hope for more. Hope that that stock counter which locked up half of my capital would rise and lemme sell off instead of still sitting on losses on that one counter. That's the main thing I hope to see. Also looking out for more buy or sell opportunities. Once the Jan Effect wears off, hope to buy back some counters at cheaper prices.
