理财有方

I was watching 理财有方 on Channel 8 just now and 郭亮 interviewed a Malay family whose monthly household income was only $700. The family had 6 children but they spent only $10 for three days of food for the whole family ($100/month), $200 for other household expenses, $100 to support the husband's smoking habit and still managed to save $300 a month!

Tips from the family:

1. List out all expenses
2. Plan
3. No luxury items (these include tidbits and eating out)

I was impressed. They are my 偶像 now. I must learn from them!

南丁格尔誓言

尽力提高护理专业标准，
勿为有损之事，
勿取服或故用有害之药，

虽然没有办法在医院里当协助他诊治病患的护士，但我希望在他生病的时候可以成为他的贴身看护，细心地照顾他，直到他痊愈。除此之外，我也希望可以成为协助他料理家务事的贤内助，让他可以安心地上班，不必担心家里的琐事。为了他，我不介意当一个幸福的小女人。=P

Girls day out.

Met up with Daphne in town this afternoon. We went to the Topshop at Wisma Atria first 'coz Daphne got a Topshop gift card from her friends and it is going to expire soon. Then we went up to food republic to have our lunch. I ate the 剪刀剪 Hainanese curry rice. I ordered a set meal (set A, $3.80) which has a small piece of pork cutlet, some cabbages, 扣肉, a fried egg and some rice. The curry was not too spicy but it was still delicious. I like their chilli paste best. Curry leaves were added to the chilli paste and it has a very nice curry taste. I find it very special. It is so nice I feel like eating it again. =P

Then, we went to Starbucks at Wheelock Place to eat muffins because Daphne was still not full. She showed me photographs and videos of her nephew. The lucky kid wears branded goods from top to bottom. Kids nowadays are so fotunate. When I was a little girl, my clothes were mostly bought from the small shops at the marketplace because mommy thinks that there is no point in buying expensive and good quality apparels since kids grow out of their clothes very fast. I agree with her on that but I will still buy the cute little adidas sport shoes for my baby when I have one. HeE~!

Shopped around Isetan Scotts and Tangs after that but didn't find anything we like. Went to Takashimaya and I bought a black nightdress.

Daphne needed to get a new strap for her Swatch so we went to the Swatch outlet at Heeren. While she was choosing a strap, I spotted Adam Chan in the shop. After a while, Daphne spotted him too. She came to me and commented that Adam Chan is not good looking in person and he was just behind us when she said that! I hope he didn't hear us. =X

After Daphne got the new strap fixed to her watch, we went to Centrepoint. While we were shopping at GAP, she suddenly realised that she had left her bottle at the Swatch outlet. We went back to the outlet but the sales assistant had thrown the bottle away. I thought that was bad service. They should at least keep the bottle in the shop for at least a day before regarding it as unwanted then throw it away. Daphne was so mad with the sales assistant that she thanked him sarcarstically for throwing her bottle away. We had to go to Plaza Singapura to buy a similar bottle from Daiso.

After getting the bottle, it was time for us to go. We will be meeting again next Tuesday to watch the local production, The Leap Years. It was so sweet of her to offer to watch it with me again though she has already watched it before. Love my sweet girl friend to bits!
