Moulin Rouge

After much persuasion by cookiemon..dave..n a few other dudes..i finally agreed to go to Moulin Rouge. Moulin Rouge was a bash organized by Bondue (Smu’s business society)

We reached e place pretty early…n thus..it was camwhoring time..

The main event of e nite was e pageant…n it was not jus another student pageant. It was a student-faculty member..which means..Margaret Chan! Lol.. faculties were supposed to pair up with students for e pageant…n I giv full respect to jerry..who participated had e balls to compete with Margaret chan..haha..

I was there to support crystal as well (dun say dun hav k!)..hee..n dats where she introduced me to her sister n her ‘supporters’…who all turned out to be nice dudes..we really really tink she looks Taiwanese..

"i'm a crystal fan now!"

Her poster reads "A star in the MARKING" wahahaha

E event was hosted by none other than my buddy melvin and chelsea..n it started with a beer drinking competition. I was thrown on stage to compete with guys dat were like..2 or 3 times my size can..lol…we had to drink beer thru this rubber tube…which was damn tough..cos u need to suck really hard…n I managed to get into e final 3…after elimination..hur hur..

But it wasn’t even close in any way…in e final 3..the other 2 guys were like walkin beer barrels..ops…lol..but third is cool..i’m proud of myself..haha..

The Final 3...

I felt really glad dat I was thrown on stage for beer drinking rather than e next event. Cos 3 guys n 3 gals were chosen to be on stage..n e jobs of e gals were to dress up e guys with ‘army gears’ to make them look realli macho..

E guys were to be blind folded…while the gals dress them. The gears that were ‘issued’ were sponsored by..erm…Triumph…lol…really macho~..lol..n while e guys were being dressed up..they were prompted to make macho poses which they did…lol..flexing muscle n stuff..

Until e point where e emcees announced special thanks to apparel sponsors: Triumph. That’s where e guys suddenly gave e ‘sian diao’ expression..lol..it was damn funny..

At the end..crystal didn’t win e pageant n we felt it was really unjust..but..oh well…gays r wierdos (one of e judge was a homo)..ops..haha…

Trading Course/Updates

I went for yet another trading course…this time..costing me S$3288…for a 2 n haf day training..

Mervyn (GPA 4/4!!) asked me y I bother payin n goin for these courses. He said.. “jus go for internship la!”

I din really explain my reasons..cos we were talkin abt other stuff as well…n frankly..it is tedious to explain at times..

But in short..onli 20% of market participants make money. N many fund managers fill e spot of the 80%. Every year, only 10% of institutionally managed investment funds make money..n every yr..its a diff 10%...

N of those funds dat r profitable..most of them only manages 10 – 15% annual gains..

Getting myself into an internship..to learn from managers like dat?...i dunno…n also..internship..doesnt mean they gonna teach u wat they do..

I am very religious when it comes to learning…I’ve developed a high level of selective hearing..n I only learn from ppl who’s been there..done that..n in this case..i’m talkin abt hedge fund managers..high profile traders..who are able to average at least 30% per trade every few days or weeks. I’m not sayin all the fund managers in Singapore are not worthy of world class standings. Believe me..there r high performers here too! But..what r e chances that u’r gonna be under their wing thru internship?

Prayin n hopin dat u’ll impress e bank…n dat u’ll meet someone great..n dat they’ll place u under his wings..n dat he will teach u wat he does..n dat he’ll hav enuff time to do so..in my opinion…is jus leavin everything to LUCK!

I dun intend to leave my future to LUCK.

Here’s my latest trading result.

Notice where all the markets worldwide is heading..

Red figures everywhere...

N notice my portfolio now…

Bear in mind e gains r onli from 7 trading days.

Now u start to understand my persistence in spending on courses? At a time where ppl are fleeing the market..i’m busy entering it..

Jamming/New Band

I’ve also started jamming regularly again…am in e process of putting tgt a new band..playing pop/rock songs…e line up is not confirmed as yet..but we’re havin fun..so..lips r sealed..haha…

We hav some offers for gigs already..but..i dun tink we’re ready as yet…shall see how it goes..watch tightly for my musical developments..lol..
