baked again!

Nuts! It needs to be at least 20m at 150c. 

Brownies! Getting better... This one I should have leave at the oven a little longer to get the crisp top. 

Yomie! Second cup in a week! 

Cm sister's mochi cookie! 

weird dream.

So the dream revolves around a guy in a place. The guy was sightseeing /foreign at this place. He later group up with another two pax. They were touring this area and saw the incoming group from opposite side were drenched. He realized that this was because one section up ahead was open, no roofing. He knew this because he visited there from the other side previously.

Then there was this scene where they parted ways. The guy /me was waiting for a 3:30 flight. While waiting I was thinking maybe can go eat something...

Then another scene where we were in a cruise ship. We landed in this port city in India called Sustainable. There some of the cruise ship tourists were chilling at a coffee shop. 

Last scenes was whereby the guy found out one of the girl the met earlier was involved with another guy who pretended to attack her. So, he was running to alert everyone abt their wrongdoing, whilst the girl and the 'bad guy' was chasing him from behind. 

The guy/me pass through a guard who then joined forces with the girl and started to follow /chase from behind. 

The guy managed to reach the group but he was couldn't talk to them as they were in a swimming session. The girl then approached the guy with a knife, and teached him how to swim by using the knife as a model. 

Liverpool. Champions of EPL

Finally.

Chelsea beat MC 2-1. Liverpool wins 2020 EPL as MC can no longer achieve the points Liverpool is currently holding.

3 - 

Can do better

3 be more consistent with updating data

Things to do today

Pyton

Review stock 

Read news 

Do economy Malaysia data 

Prepare trade for next week

back to habitica

I realised, though I have made some good steps forwards on my trading and reading, I am still slacking in some other aspects.

Decided to go back to habitica to sort my daily life. I have reduced the minutes but increased the sessions so that it is more feasible. Ie 2x 30m instead of 1x 60m

Other news:

Football is back on 17/6

Market looks bullish. Not good for me but let's see

Going out for a dinner date

CMCO is looking like a good bridge between before and after covid. I was qing at ikea today. Long q but no one is complaining (everyone knows it is part of it now, qing). A lot of people though. 

Bought curry puff! 

Should remove some games that are too repetitive. Looking to limit my time on steam and epic games too

grateful post

Setting SL to take profit or lower profit yesterday. Most trades were right but one was greedy.

Had another good sleep but tummy still gassy. Haha

Gonna go shopping for milk + order outside takeaway today after the call.

profit!

Took $350 for profit yday, though the remaining is abt - $150, still good.

The remaining are long position except for mnst. 

Keep it up,  keep reviewing what you have read to reinforce it into your habit. 

Ab exercise twice day! 

CMCO extended

Our cmco is now extended until June. I think that is a good idea, health wise. Not sure how badly this will hit the poor and small biz even further.

Hopefully everyone will be fine. Most importantly, they will have the determination and will to come back stronger. (and stay healthy throughout) 

Grateful stuff

1) still losing weight 

2) started stardew valley. My my that game is addictive. 

3) baked another round of bread..more or less the same like the previous one. Good crispy edges. Buttery insides. I like

4) played gloomhaven over the weekend. 😬 

Observation: CMCO

Went out today for the first time since they have announced CMCO.

Drove out to DJ to tapau lunch, then head to Tmn Mega for bakery stuff, before heading to Starling's supermarket & then back home

What did I notice?
A lot of cars, seems like back to usual already in terms of the number of cars on the roads. Having said that, it was easy to find parking (which means not everyone is 100% out back to pre covid).Nee

In TTDI, I think there are more shops open for business, but in Tmn Mega, most shops are still close re Magnum Toto etc.

Restaurants in DJ and Tmn Mega only provide for take away/ delivery only. What does this means? Less income for the food & beverage industry, coupled with a higher cost of operations (sanitizers, temperature check controller, fixed employees - unless they cut them down, ingredients unused which cannot last goes to waste). When it is fully reopen, the F&B also cannot operate at full capacity due to the required social distancing.

We are also required to queue up in most places, which is trying to control the volume of patrons at each shop.

I think generally people are also more conscious and wary about these matters.

Having said that, I do feel that this is the new normal. And businesses that can operate in this manner will be able to survive through this unfortunate climate. Those which are cash rich, less capital intensive, low maintenance will be probably one of the few good companies to keep your eye on them. You can start to research on these companies.

In theory, tech companies and tech related companies are good place to start. FB, GOOG, MSFT are top picks. TWTR NVDA too
You have to rationalise moving forward what does covid bring to them and out of the pandemic what they can bring forward to better the place.

3 Grateful Things:-
1- Awareness of my body. Observing its status. I have been meaning to go for a medical checkup but didnt due to the lockdown. Let's see in the next few weeks if this is possible
2- Talk by Conrad. Picked up a few tips. He is still bearish but the charts/ markets are currently bullish. If SPY break upwards (above the fibonacci, then we might be looking at a strong bull run). Having said that, there is a lot of mixed bull / bear indicators
1) President election year = bullish
2) January barometer - bearish
3) Sell in May and go away - bearish
4) poor economy results (likely but not confirmed) - bearish

3- Bought ingredients for baking bread and making pasta! :D

mco soon to be over...

Three grateful things

- that I am content. Haha

- lost weight 

- did some reading! 

things I made over the past one month includes focaccia bread, normal bread, brownies, kimchi jjigae, dapur fancy's murtabak Maggi, ggyeran pang (Korean egg pancake) 

update

Baked bread

Made me feel that i should have gone to see them in concert previously.

HAIHH

coronavirus

Malaysia is on MRO, movement restriction order from 18-31 March due to the covid19, to prevent it from spreading further and managing the risk at the moment

In the meantime, played element TD and xherosiege on warcraft 3 with chew.

Played FM again. Managed this 2nd tier Dutch team FC dorchecht. Bought a lot of free players, and sold some of them for 100-200k. Lol. Hopefully can get promotion in my second season with them.

liverpool out!

Good performance from Liverpool vs atletico.

They kept attacking from the start. Got what they deserved when Gini equalized. Should have see it off in normal time if not for our poor finish.

Then Adrian made a bad mistake. :( conceded a goal from nowhere. That gives atletico the drive to defend harder, play their game and they countered, and scored another.

In the end, I am happy with the performance. Unfortunate result. 

March 8

Liverpool won! 2-1 vs Bournemouth

Milner goal line save and pep talk😍😍

Finished reading Jo Nesbos' Knife. Very good and love the ending! Can't wait for the next book 

Gonna be a productive week ahead. Projection, shared drive, Microsoft access

March 2

Got a postcard from Jen. ❤️❤️

Met up with Fynn for dinner, talked about the meditation and Buddhism.

Manage to do some gardening this money. Planted two new pots, refreshed the soil for the current ones and move some soil to the kantan bunch. 

March 1: grateful post

Bought this airasia pass to travel with family, solo or with friends in the coming one year! Ideally for me is to go Korea, Taiwan, China and Australia. Japan if it is Osaka sure! 

We also jog 10k yestrday morning

Celebrated saigujie's bday at one world hotel yesterday too

Bought my tools for making a scoby hotel in the coming weeks and pots for plants in my room

new PM

Malaysia today appointed a new PM after a week's long fiasco in the political scene. We appointed Muhiyiddin, who collaborated with the opposition ie BN / UMNO to obtain a majority vote (this is according to them and Agong) among the MPs.

This is not what we the people want, but we have to accept for the time being. Have faith that the right people, the politician who is currently fighting for us, will no doubt continue their hard work against this poorly arranged, heavily self-interested politicians.

I know that those who have conscience will continue their struggle against the corrupted. What we can do now is continue to believe in them and not give up hope. 

Even if they (the corrupt) get into power now, no doubt those who betrayed the people will get their backlash in the next election. 😊

back from meditation

Grateful stuff

Did the meditation course. Daunting but it is over now. Will write more about in due time. 

Happy Liverpool won against west ham. First game I watched in two weeks? 😂 

Happy that I manage to find time to do my meditation practice yesterday, though I need to improve on the duration.

Coronavirus seems to be getting worse in other countries. Unfortunate :( may the virus stop spreading soon.

nephew and how to be better uncle

My method was trying to relate him to somewhat similar situations and hopes he gets that emotional part (that the opposing party will feel) or the rational aspect (that he should account for when making his decisions)

Lol. 

3 grateful things!

1) Uninstalled some apps, including a game

2) another year already. I think yday was a good (extended) family time.

3) did hiking on sunday

three happy photos

Alisson's celebration 

Someone enjoyed my brownies 

A dialect book at naisse in KL

lfc Singapore store

penang trip

1) found a solution to address how sis can deal with Ethan. By deducting his minutes on the phone

2) did my exercise in the morning. 

3) manage to drive through to ipoh without feeling tired. This even though I didnt sleep that early yesterday. 

grateful for the week post

1) that I sort of raised the potential issue with tz. I think it's good to have it out before going any further

2) trading. I think this week was ok even though they're weren't many opportunities. Ok that I am a is determined

3) mahjong. You have to believe, and have right attitude and mindset. 😂

hiking: Bukit Saga 2020

I was not that surprised when I heard from yeeli two weeks back that she was going to hike Bkt. Saga. I have been waiting to get confirmation from someone that Bkt Saga was still open. She did that for me. Thank you Yeeli!

We went there yesterday. Emily, jyi, yf and Wang Wei. We got off to a bad start as the construction path was Muddy and it sinks in easily, and goes in deeply too.

Once we passed that, then we start the climb up. The path was A (from the residence). I realized during this hike how steep Saga really is. Wow. Each time you look up and can see the angles.  Like a very steep staircase. Crazy. 😂

We took about 1.5hrs to reach the peak. There was a guy who was sharing with us that there will be a group that is hiking to the lookout point. To and from will take approximately four hours. Wished I could have join them.

2 years already?

By end of this year I can eat steak etc like normal. Though I think i may stick to my current diet. It does make it easier when I eat at home or out with friends. 

2020 Resolutions

I have set some targets for 2020

Among them are:
1) Spend 3 hours on trading on weekdays
2) Help to provide bazi to 10 pax
3) Go for medical checkup
4) get in shape (abs/ belly)
5) become healthier mentally (more calm, less emotional, at peace, not easily annoyed etc)
6) pickup a language (korean/ chinese)
7) be more kind and friendly to everyone
8) accept people around me as they are

I also have to do a review on a month to month basis to see how I am achieving the goals so far..

penang trip

Had dinner with family etc last night. Steamboat. 

Reached penang abt 3pm yday 

Watched Liverpool on aotg this morning. 4-0.very entertaining game. 

Visiting kaima and 2yee, bought biscuits for ah theng. Now praying to mom

one new thought

I will practice to set a  time not to be angry, yell or shout at anyone everyday. 

I also should start appreciating everyone on what they are good in doing. For example, Kf, although emotional, is a helpful and direct person.

Review on Christmas :

Gathering with family for lunch. I am glad they liked the brownies! We end up talking about shares and investment too

In the evening, gaming session with the guys. Chew ffk. We played overcooked, hidden in sight and burglar bros. Because chew ffk, he offered to treat us dinner. Thank you Chew! 

At night, pack and got ready for my trip to Pg. 

--

Finished reading silenced by kristina ohlsson. Good stuff. 

what happened today: negativeness

Rejection.

It happened two days ago and today also, though for different situation/issue. 

First was a good direct question from a female acquaintance asking me why I still team to her when she tried not to reply me. I realized then she didn't want to talk to me, which I think is a good thing that she shared with me because I wouldn't sense it (but of course it still hurts somewhat). I was somewhat affected by it right after ie my mood. I can understand it may not be my fault but it still take time to digest the emotion and let it out of the body. 

Second was from a cousin. We ended up bringing the same item for the party. She stated dessert, I said cake + brownies. Turns out we are both bringing burnt cheesecake. She didn't like that fact. I can understand, and I can also understand her reaction. But isn't my response just as similar as hers.? She called but I did not answer because I don't know what I would say to her. I don't think is a big thing. Really. I think my end, I should ask what dessert is she bringing before hand, but I am sure her reaction wouldn't be this bad if it is a different type of dessert that I am bringing. 

Anyway. Rants! 

Oh, I have also been bad at controlling my time on fifa. Need to control! 

3 grateful things 

1) meiyee as a peer for qimen and trading 

2) been trading more consistently, and profiting overall

3) I have been sleeping well ie I did not wake up in between, well, not as badly as before. And I tend to wakeup later too

Update on HPH & Weekend

So, I have finished setting up myself for HPH.

I have went with Habitfull and Habitica for tracking my habits/things to do on a day-to-day basis. I would recommend Habitica toANYONE who wants to build up a good habit, or stop a bad habit. Out of all habit building apps, this is the one that comes with full features without having to pay a single cent. You only need to pay if you want a an improved hero (it is a part game too)

I have also installed a pomodoro app to help me study. I tried it on Friday and it works, not efficient enough but at least it works to some extent. Will keep it up.

I am also using an app called AppBlock. My my I think this is the app that is worth paying if you feel you are spending too much time on IG and Youtube.

So I done most of my goals thus far except for reading news yesterday night and exercise this morning (which I still can make it as long as I do it before 12 tonight)

---

Weekend activities

Imperial 2030 + PR Friday night
HL won Imperial and KS won PR (tied with me on golds and points, won by having a corn!)

Imperial was good I think, but I made the mistake of investing too fast. Should have kept some money instead of keep investing when I had the chance.

PR was a fast game but I should have taken the custom house instead of the statue

I also watched Jumanji this morning. That was good too!

---

Oh yeah, I had a bad flu since Thursday. So I have been consuming the following so far:-

1. Ginger + Lemon/Apple juice
2. 100 Plus
3. Porridge
4. Vege + Rice
5. Kimchi
6. Pomegranate juice
7. Water, a lot of water
8. Tea
9. Honey + yogurt
10. Cereal + milk
11. Fish head noodle
12. Potato chips (BAD i know)

I think I would have been better if I slept a bit more.  I do feel much better now after an 1.5hr nap in the afternoon.

---

Update on HPH

So I've finished reading High Performance Habit by Brendon Burchard a few days ago and planned to follow his guide on improving my habits to convert into meaningful results.

For the past two days, I have been drawing out goals and sub-goals, both for life and 2020 in the following categories:

1. Health
2. Friends
3. Intimate Relationship
4. Family
5. Spirituality
6. Emotions
7. Work/Mission
8. Finance
9. Hobby
10. Adventure

I have completed all of it, except for carving out a more detailed plan for my Primary Interest: Trading, and perhaps Bazi/ language too. Will need to do the 5 key moves + Progressing Mastery for these activities (to-do-today)

I also accept that I need to find my "Why" on committing my time into these activities. That will help me stay on course and push myself to work on it harder. I will also complete this within the next few days.

I have downloaded Microsoft To-Do app to see if it can help me to track my daily progress. As is, I have a list of activities to do on a daily basis (which will help me achieve my goals I have written for 2020).

So let's see

I should do a review of my performance on a monthly basis to see how far I have come. I have written where I am now in my goals so that will be good to compare against later on.

Dream 10/12

Minyoung visit me in Malaysia. We go on a road trip with a bunch of kids like a field trip. Then we had a big dinner where we have old smdu friends and family gather together

She was eating with some bunch guys from du whereas I was eating at another table

Then there was a group of guys who wanted me to follow them to go and play paintball at an amusement park. We shot most the guys when later we were arrested, we realized that the area is a government secret agency and an artifact was stolen. We were jailed. 

We get to play that round again and narrator suggest to dial #411 for police when the time is right. I rang the police when I saw a bunch of corpses. They came immediately on a helicopter.

I showed them the bodies and then bring them to where they are having the auction. The police overhead the bidder and told him the weapon he is auctioning now, there is only one unit in the world and it belongs to them. The police then made their arrest

I later complain to my friend on how Hl kept blaming me for not finishing his work 

Homo Deus

Chapter 1
The book begins by talking abt the change in how we approach famine, plague & war since the early civilisation (it is becoming lesser of a problem as we advance our civilisation with technology & improvements. People are less likely to starve to death than overeating .

Whereas many people died due to plague in the past, the number of deaths have been reducing as we progress forward. From millions (Black Death 1330s) down to tens of thousands (Ebola 2014). Wars is now rarer than ever and most countries will put war as a last option. Countries benefit more from trading with their competitors than waging war with them.

Now with our tech advancements, we are looking to prolong life, or even live on forever. And if this does come true, it may affect our marriage (will "till death do us apart" still applies?), our career (changing career in your 50s may not be deem "too late" anymore)

Right to happiness
How should we measure a successful life/country? By income/GDP or by happiness/GDH?
Should we consume drugs in order to stay happy? What if once we gain our happiness, in order to achieve the similar feelings, we need to strive for the experience again (promotion, falling in love)?

To attain real happiness, humans need to slow down the pursuit of pleasant sensations, not to accelerate it.

Be a better human version, by biological engineering, non-organic & cyborg.
Biological is done by doing the rewiring of the DNA etc, cyborg is attaching a bionic attachment onto a human.

And if everyone in the near future is making biological improvement to their babies, would you? If you do not, then your kid may be left behind in class / work.

Lawns are a sign of your wealth (That is the history of lawns). If you are rich, you can afford to maintain a luscious garden.

I didnt write it after that.. :D
just gonna post this out

Games I tried on Origin

Recently I have received a free one month access to Origin Access, whereby you get to play a selection of games that is parked under the "Vault" for free. So, obviously, I made good use of this perk/benefit to try out some of the games that have been on my wishlist.

#1 Mutant Year Zero

This game is X-com esque but you can only control up to 3 characters. There is also an aspect of sneak/stealth, indicated by your torchlight. I find the graphic design for this game amazing. Although there aren't that many skills available for the characters to enjoy different playstyle, the game is still worth playing. Story line arc is predictable but nevertheless still good.

#2 They Are Billions

Strategy and RPG game where you have different missions so certain games involves controlling a hero to explore a dungeon whereas other missions you are playing real time strategy (but you can pause). This game I particularly was looking to play mainly because it involves zombie and upgrading your tech level concept. It is great to play BUT FREAKING DIFFICULT. There are just too many zombies like it should but too many too enjoy... lol

#3 Into the Breach
I just played this today and finished playing it already. A solid game like FTL where once you finished the game, you just want to have a go at it again to see the different combinations of robots/mechs can lead you to the end. I finished the game twice in -3-5 hours? Decided to uninstall it after because it will be too additive.

Next games to try: Tyranny, Frost Punk, Shadow Tactics

grateful #1 7/12/19

Three things I am grateful about yesterday.

1) Successfully lead a group of accountants to hike up and down Bukit Wawasan. I was also pleased that they enjoyed it and found a few like minded hikers that I hope we will meet and hike again soon! 

2) I baked brownies and brought it to Eugene and Hexiang's Maxine's 100day event. Joanne tried it and complimented it by saying "I cannot differentiate this and tricia's brownies." it definitely has to be the highest compliment I received for my brownies.

3) I went and watch movie Knives Out with Grace after that. It was an entertaining movie but l sorting suspected something either the old guy is still alive or the murderer is one of them. Anyway, I brought my newly bought water bottle and almost left it there! I ran back to the cinema and managed to get it back from the cleaners, who dumped it into rubbish bag already.

they upgraded the app

So I think i will try to post more often again!

First stop is to talk about the basketball over the weekend. 

We played our inaugural Olympic with friends 2019 game, which was around the world. Obviously I suck in any sports game... So I ended last place. Big surprise for the day was that cm beat Hl to third place. Lol

I went to hike puchong wawasan hill by myself after that to see the time required to go up and down...  I ended spending two hours there. Trying different routes. It was also my first time ending up at the waterfall.

Korea

I will be going home in less than 8hrs.

How do I feel?

Traveling alone gives me a lot of time to think. And wonder. Usually I will have a lot of to do list when I am about to head home. But..... upon reaching home, all these things to be done are left behind.

Emotions. Currently feeling a bit more. Maybe I am overthinking. How I wish things will be different when I go back home, but I know it wouldn't.

To accept that it wouldn't will make me feel better, I think. Or should I strive to push for a change, a breakthrough?

It is not as bad as I am writing, nor as difficult. Everyone, it must people encounters or suffers from it. The comfort or ease of the sense of knowing, the comfort of familiarity.

Alone by myself feels good in the sense that I don't feel pressure. I don't sigh. I just, relaxed. :)

Back to reality. Things to learn, habits to stop, books to read, tasks to solve.

oh baby, over1k!

Unrealised earning over 1k !!! :D

Dream is not good for sleep

I dreamt a lot recently but didn't write about it. Anyway I dreamt that my two current favorite artists did a collaboration. Between rocket girls 101 and ransom collective.

I saw a scene whereby yamy was touring with ransom group because they were in Philippines and taking some photos together

In other stories . Currently reading born to run. Should be nice! 

Nervous!

First time attending a yoga class.... Scary, anxious!

Obsessed

I think I am supposed to write about something else but I cannot remember what was it I wanted to write.

Anyway I have been binging on YouTube videos on Chinese reality shows, mainly those relating to produce 101 china girls.

Kinda interesting to watch certain episodes, and see how they develop themselves and their personal life.

I watched a matching show two weeks back and it was great. Couldn't stop watching it (2 hours per episode). An happy that the two guys I like end up with the girls they were chasing.

Brief history of Humankind (spoilers)

Informative and interesting perspective to our humankind history and growth.

I will elaborate on what I think about the book.  The book starts of discussing about the general history of humankind, specifically, the Homo sapiens, how it manage to survive and conquer the other similar Homo species, even though it is not the strongest physically. And humans are so good at hunting that they caused the extinction of some large mammals.

After that, it talks about the revolutions that led us to where we are now. The Cognitive Revolution: where Homo sapiens learn more about the world, communication and writing.

The Agricultural Revolution: where "we" started to settle in a location and learn to grow our own food instead of constantly hunting and moving about, and how our body and mind started to evolve/change due to this. Our diet used to be a variety of food (whatever we can hunt/ gather/ forage) vs now where it is more constant of the same type of food (growing the same rice/ corn year in, year out). And, instead of living free without worry, now we are constantly thinking about the next harvest, whether it will be good or bad. Without the Agricultural Rev, we will not have the size of the population as we have now. The hunting-gathering period requires nimble and small pack of humans, does not cater to big group.

As part of the growth, there is more rules and protection required. Rules to ensure nobody steals and protection from other people invading and stealing the village's food. Here is where the various empires begin to emerge, along with 'imagined order', new languages (mathematics) and taxes.

Human created their own internal hierarchy

The "unification" of humankind was through three factors: monetary, imperialism and religion.

Imperialism, through time, converts locals into believing they are part of the empire. Instead of recognising themselves as their local identify and culture, they adopted the culture and practices of the empire who conquered them (that they very likely hated at the start of colonisation)

Religion also gather people who are outside a community to unite under the same purpose. Religion also includes communism and capitalism.

Scientific Revolution: An evergrowing feedback loop. with resources, you do research whereby new discoveries allow the country to develop powerful weaponry to increase their power. Increased in power to conquer more countries leads to more resources. This is also the period where human start to  develop a questioning mind (compared to earlier when they accept what is taught by their respective religion)

As humans are curious creature, we started to do more exploration and research. Through exploration, they are able to find new lands to conquer. By conquering, it promises them more resources for trading to increase their wealth (capitalism in play), all these are done at the expense of the local native tribes/ empires

Industrial Revolution: access to more energy and manpower than ever before --> leading to parabolic growth in economy (production). Have we actually consider the livelihood of the chickens in the production line? It seems that instead of treating slaves poorly, we are treating the cattles and chickens poorly for our consumption (happiness?). It also talks about consumerism as the new culture/religion - making us buy more and more products in the market (enriching the big companies - ie the new empires)

The book briefly talks about how the world is now more peaceful than before, where based on a percentage count, the death rate through war/crime is higher then compared to the present. I disagree to some extent on this comparison because there are many more people/human now than before, but I think it makes sense as there are less wars these days compared to the medieval times etc.

Happiness - after all that human have achieved, are we really happy? How do we measure our progress? We should be happier than the people who have lived 10,000yrs ago, but are we? We have develop chemical solution to maintain the happiness level (Prozac). But the problem we realised is that happiness is never permanent. Buddhist teach us to contentment, to accept life as is. There is bound to be ups and downs in life, so the solution is we should not chase the ups and accept the downs. We should reduce our pursuit for happiness (extrinsic or intrinsic).

The books end with talking about human acting as life creator and consider its ethics and morality. Although we are now able to use technology to cure many diseases and provide replacement limbs for many people (arms, legs), we are also able to create new life in the lab.  What are the consideration we should take when we are making the decision whether to create a new life/species?

Replacing my monitor

I received my 43inch monitor but there was a problem with it. I need to get it replaced at puchong and preferably on the same day. The shop closes at 10pm. I asked Ccw and cm but they  both can't make it at the time I want.

I scroll down on my WhatsApp and I found Anna. I recalled she telling me that she got no plans for the night so I asked her this:

"This is weird but are you free now? I need a hand to help me carry a monitor to a shop in puchong to do replacement." she said OK. And FYI, Anna is a Tinder match that I've just met once (first time on Tuesday this week).

Hahaha. Anyway I got it replaced and we went to murni for supper.  Talked about stuff family etc and we ended up having an ideal dating app that we both think it might sell! #exciting!

Dropped her home and reached home around 1+? Fixed my monitor and just crashed on the chair.

wc18

World Cup18 is over. France won. I won rm600 (COST: rm120 + rm50) = RM430.

Bought SON's korea jersey

Attending Conrad's course this weekend.

MARRIAGE.

What a weird dream.

I dreamt a mix of things, but there is a life lesson to it. I was getting married to someone, someone that I am OK with, but I do not love. When we are signing the paper, I look at my partner, and I was like.. What? Is her? Why am I marrying her? Oh no, I do not have many things to talk to her. I do not even like her that much. Why did I say yes in the first place, or Why did I make such proposal?!?

I got so freak out from it.And I felt at that time it was too late to say no to the wedding. I was thinking to myself, maybe we can carry on and I can get a divorce later. It is no big deal, quite normal these days. Or don't even need to divorce, just life your own respective life.

And I woke up. I realise, WOW.I am given a second chance. haha. Do not do this. Must blog about it to keep a reminder.

Note to self

always set stop loss.. tested on both FKLI and LRCX, the consequences of not setting is quite disastrous.

in other news
went back to Pg on Wed, came back on Thu. drove back. ate chap fan outside kaima's house for dinner. stayed at Good luck inn, quite cozy :D

Jayden's bday party yesterday. played about 6-8 games of fifa with cm the whole afternoon. lol

went for a 10km run this morning.

later going for gym, plan to work the top 10 reps per set x 3 set?

Profit Thursday with caveat

Profit about $100 from US and about RM300 from local futures.

Caveat because I did two things which I should not have done if I have good discipline.
1) I moved my SL lower for LRCX to prevent from the GAP DROP. :( Now I am holding a stock at loss over $200. If it is a short term thing, (which is what I am expecting, hence the move down, then I am okay). I should target to reduce loss, not to profit already

2) FKLI holding overnight. Should have take profit, but left two contracts open. Lets' see if it can survive today's drop.

Profit Tuesday & Wednesday!

KLCI managed to take RM205 and RM700+-.

Saw some wood for labelling plants for the garden

Cook my own vege to supplement the carbs for dinner.


Profit from US stocks today! :D

Profit Monday!

Ammie teached my over the weekend in using Forecasting, check Harm to Life Door.  So, in the morning, I traded FKLI. Suprising result was so smooth. I manage to follow the big trend (Thanks to weekend course, who taught me macroeconomics is important) I compared the current KLCI number and its futures, and I use that as an indicator whether to add lot or not. I traded 9 times and I got the profit as below.

Now is at night, I took profit from TTWO, entered four positions (UNH, CRM, TTWO again, and MATCH). Happy with unrealised amount. :)

Also did some moving of my bed today. Realised there is a beam on top of my bed, and the bed is against a window. I also sleep with my toilet door open (NOT GOOD). Fixed all of it after dinner. Let's see if it will bring me better Qi.

Profits!!!

Realised a few stocks today. Happy!

Superstar dream

Hmm

Parking scene at home. Driving kammo s bmw.  Trying to adjust it

Dating with a guy scene. Was in a dinner date with a guy. Quite attractive and handsome.,in suit. We were eating a meal when their appetisers come. The appetisers is in the form of pills. One is fish oil capsules. He later suggested to perform. At the restaurant and the owners have to do some table arrangement. I sat and watch.

Play pretend selling tickets. Dunno why also.

Avengers dream.

I am part of Avengers. There is an army fighting lady,  there is spiderman, there is a Warhammer, winter soldier, hulk?

And we fight against thanos and emperor palpatine

There is another ordinary guy who has powers. 

Anyway scenes that I rmb:

1) Thanos become super big size and everyone is running away. He manage to throw a chain on spider and wrapped ard him. He them fall lor. Thanos caught him and pass him to a civilian. She tried to bite test him... When spidey came out, he has a tube behind him. Seems like thanos is inserting a bug into the spidey to mind control him.

2).the black army girl also got mind controlled already but I don't rmb how

3) an ant like human barge into a condo unit of one of the super hero , the ordinary guy who has power but not super strength. The ant tried to attack his mum but he managed to defend her. As they were wrestling, the ant guy uses his face with tentacles to attack the hero's face, twice. As the ant about to mind control the guy, the guy's mum manage to whack it from behind and he ran away.

4) staircase, condo unit need to run down the staircase. Kept switching the staircase to avoid detection. The enemy ant unit respawned and was coming up the staircase.  Managed to switchn3 staircases in the end and ended up in a place near bukit bintang / sg way

5) managed to run away from scene 3, trying to catch MRT in kl city center. As I was abt to go up the staircase (the mrt here is elevated). But I kept hearing emperor palpatines voice. Later, I can see he is everywhere.  I tried to approach and confront him but he was playing with me. He just turn away or act like he can't see me.

6) we are just chilling in my room. And I was testing the black army girl with some questions to see if she really know me but then I woke up.

Weekend and ucl final

Liverpool lost. But I am not happy with two things. Ramos made Salah injured his shoulder. Karius could have done so much better. :(

Disappointed by the circumstances of the situation. It is sad.

Weekend grwb. Picking up a few things here and there. Setting new goals.

Objective for post course : set a focus and go for it. Do not deviate.

Monday: updated

Trades:-
KLCI - normally we are not advised to hold trades overnight, so this time I am holding overnight. Let's see if I will learn the lesson the hard way, or not.

But even if it works ie I profit, I should not do this often.

Why this I do it in the first place? tried to exit but I could exit at the right price and I believe the Malaysia market should be still positive (Then again, the advice is do not assume anything)

--> Update - the market dropped the next two days (sold at 182x, making a loss of RM2k). Lesson learn yet? this is compare to a few hundred ringgit loss. :)


US:-
took profit for MU (because it fell to my SL) and partial profit for ZTS.
got in to NVDA again at a lower price (which by practice I should not get into the same stock twice) - but the price was at EMA20 and trendline, hence I felt it is too good of an opportunity to miss.

--> Update --> the market looks shaky, took profit from ATVI, EL and MSFT

Others:-
Meeting with DBKL @ DBKL - Set a meeting with Siti Hajar next week to run through TTDI outstanding list

Gaming with the guys at night, HL got a new job (Congrats!). Still need to finish up reading the bazi stuff.

Went out yesterday with Ah Theng, Leng jie2 & yinkuan? to sunway pyramid. I definitely can learn a thing or two from the way they hassle the price. lol

Trading b#3

Traded and lost money today at the very last 10mins of the trading session. KLCI suddenly dropped 10 points or not I believe, causing FKLI to drop as well. I was at a net profit position before the drop and was constantly monitoring the KLCI price, but I cannot help with the sudden drop. During the drop, I did not check the KLCI index until it was too late.

I was contemplating whether to keep my stocks at hand, carrying forward my losses. In the end, I manage to tell myself that it is okay to lose one day and trade again the next day. It is part of trading. So I closed my trades at a loss today.

----

In the night, I entered EL, SKX, MAR. EL and SKX was influence by Crystal, but EL have good chart and SKX have a high upside.

MAR is by Crystal as well and I decided to follow up on this by getting it on the support line + trend line.

I took profit on MU by setting the SL higher than my cost. I also put a higher SL for FB . I have increase the SL for other stocks (but still below cost) after feeling comfortable with the entry price. This is to reduce my downside exposure as I believe that my entry is a good entry,if it drops below my entry, it is going to be a big chance to hit my SL.

Non-trade update:
- Finally the garden committee managed to organised a meeting today.
- Another day of eating vege

Things to do on Friday

Re:

Drop an email to hannah

It has been one week, didnt eat meat except during GJ 3 course wedding dinner, and i didn't feel too well at that point that I thought i should really eat up to nourish myself. I did eat egg though (which in my own mind that is my deal, no meat but egg is acceptable)

Looking for good temples to donate. I have thought about it and will likely to donate across the year, as i will use 10-20% of my earnings per month and donate it... but by end of this year the figure must reach RM5k

Not easy trying not to name call people  but i think i am doing quite well (almost let CM caught me but i  managed to delete the msg in time... phew!)

Today at sharemarket, I didnt do too well in the beginning, but manage to recover after wards. Most likely tomorrow, as we are having CG meeting, i wont be able to trade: :(

Hope I can catch the afternoon market

Also US market, bought a few shares, namely NVDA and qing for Amzn, Goog. etc. I started FB fares, then it let to a cyber "warfare" between BN and PH.

Side note: Deadpool become awesome in DP2. hilarious too. :!

Post GE14, Day One Trading

Mistake - Too greedy, should sell when will the number is good for self - could have earn 1k+ but end up only 300+

Gross - 200 from equity, 1k from derivatives. I think I am getting the hang of it.. Follow the trend, trade with it, only do counters when near peak. Stop Loss is good but i feel trend beats anything ie even if you are in loss, and your trade is with the trend, you do not need to worry much.

Tonight lets see how the US Market shares will perform!

my commitment to PH if they can win it

no meat , eat vege 1yr (as often as i can), if win 2yrs
give  temple 2k, if win 5k
i go work for govt for 3yrs

Done my voting

Woke up early to vote, then head to makan and sleep. Read Zone One. Dont really like it so far but will push through.

Yesterday I sent my sister's postal vote to Cheras then head home. Did it with Ah Mei jie2

Also yesterday, rewarded myself with a Boost Juice.

BG - played telestration and Captain Sonar. Watched Tun M's video ceramah..

Asked Mindy to read it again see if we can get a new government, she said difficult based on her readings/forecast for me. I read it as it is possible and good.  Overall readings all said NO, but let's see how it goes.

happy! finally!!!

Weekend reflection

Managed to do a bit of hiking and exercise at home. Should increase the duration of the exercise

Managed to do the required 30mins of reading too

Didn't do bazi

Didn't do the garden ppt etc

If I could have my Saturday again, what would I do?
- reduce my video time on the phone.
- reduce social media time too

Going to uninstall YouTube now.

Liverpool in UCL FINAL! & Discipline

Watched Liverpool lose to Roma 4-2 (could have been worse), ie extra time.. Roma was almost there.....  Luckily some decisions went our way.

Now Liverpool v Real Madrid in Kiev...

So BIG QUESTION NOW, should I spend RM20k approx to go to Kiev to catch them?

Once in a lifetime kinda thingy..... and both teams are really good teams. Get to see Ronaldo in person too, among others.

Hendo and Firmino for me :)

SHOULD I? Something to ponder

Review of today

Things to do tmr:-

- Prepping ppt for Garden presentation

Grateful, Review, Forgive

I need to revive my blogging and set things out on my todo list for tomorrow and review it on a daily basis.

Grateful today:
I managed to catch Terry's trade and earn RM275 gross
Watched some videos on focus and concentration

Forgiveness:
Prolly how HL like to bring up the 10 games. I am irritated by how it is an irrelevant point that he likes to bring up again and again. But I cannot control his act. So I should just learn to accept and let him be.

Review (tbu)
1- Did my reading
2- will complete my bazi later (After blogging)
3- will loging into tws later as well

Making a tshirt

Just wanna note this down. I thought about this awhile ago but did not do anything about it. I thought of making a customized shirt for myself during exercise time / jogging.

The shirt back part will have a question "Do you wanna play board game with me? Just ask me out!"

And maybe Pc games too.

The front part can have something similar or a photo or picture of something I can relate

Reflection

I feel I need to sit down and reflect at where I am now.

I am sitting at the park now looking at people waking, jogging and the green hill with the pond in middle. I feel I need to be more effective with my day to day activities. I can do more but I am taking it too easy. I need to work harder and play lesser. My mind agrees to this but it is the lacking of discipline and focus that always derail my action plans.

So i shall first improve my discipline and ability to focus. How?

- find articles and read them (using spreeder)
- find books and consider buying them
- watch videos
- application: write down what you have learn and practice it daily.

I tend to do this now and then but drop off along the way...  How? Address this by reviewing your notes daily.

Short dream

Will be taking bus back to Penang tomorrow. the journey should be interesting.

bought gloomhaven, scythe and viticulture. :D many board games to play in the coming months!

i need to stay back and calm down, focus. need to focus on trading and bazi

Jan and Pre CNY update

January went by quickly. I attended two courses to up my financial investing game.

Last weekend, Thursday, I PKed onto a longkang outside omulab. knocked my head and had cuts/scratches all over my body.

What I am doing lately? still the same, focusing on trading and bazi.

I have excused myself from Azlan's entrepreneurship mainly because I am finding it difficult to juggle my time between myself (trading, bazi etc), garden and the project. Hence I decided to take a step back from it.

I am thinking of taking a step back from the garden as well but that will happen at a later stage. I need to help to setup the accounting system etc first.

Gym

3km under 20m

a question for myself today / and a business plan?

a business plan:-
If I were to commit myself to a business, I would rather a business that is flexible where I can do my own things at work. If it is a cafe, I do not want high traffic but high margin. Preferably online business or consulting where I can do a few jobs in a month and that is sufficient to cover the whole month's expenses.

Or perhaps the job does not need me to be on site, ie I can employ staff and all I need to do is go in once every week or so.

CONCEPT:- HIGH MARGIN, FLEXIBLE (CONTRACT?), EMPLOY WORKERS (DELEGATION)



a question for myself today:-
what get into me. Recently it is HL. I know that in the past when people are not keen to learn more ie Calvin or KS, I get it and I don't bother but with HL, I do feel I am frustrated easily with him.

Perhaps it could be because he did say that I am lazy and now he is acting the same.  But more because I feel that this is sometime he could use to elevate himself to a better position.

I know I should be affected by his choices and ultimately their choices affects their own lives, not mine.

I can share with him why I feel this is important for him and why it got into me but I should not let it affect me emotionally again.

So HL got to me because I care about him, which is normal that you are affected by things and people you care about.

Earned RM1,800 today!

I bought SAPNRG this morning when the market opened, and sold it 30mins later, taking a profit of RM1,800 gross.

I bought it because over the weekend, I saw the chart where there is a reversal on the downtrend, with a gap up.

So on Monday (Today), I monitor the opening and manage to get the share at 83c. I monitored it for 30mins before deciding to sell it at 87.5c.

3rd Jan 2018

1) When it is the football transfer season, it always makes me feel like reinstalling Football Manager and start to spend my life away, AGAIN.

2) Caught up with Woon today for dinner. Fat d.

3) Should plan further on the trip to Osaka. Seems like there are signs pointing towards this trip.

Things I have done that I am happy with

Started exercising daily again, albeit it is not long, it is a start

Reading more frequent. Started reading Cards on the Table by Agatha Christie. I think I've read it previously but do not remember the ending. Maybe I did not finish the book previously.

Did my budget for 2018, updated my portfolio. Started my analysis for FA again.

Have been doing my things to do for the next day consistently for about 5 days now.

Things to accomplish by end of this week

1) Bazi practice
2) Share FA part 2
3) Go for a run

Reflection on 2017 and Goals for 2018

So I have set myself a few goals towards late 2017. I did not complete any of them but I like to continue to pursue them moving to 2018.
1- Do more Bazi - I have been planning and planning but have yet to complete a thorough report since HL and Joanne's reading. I have been spending way too long structuring the report > doing practical. Anyway, the structure will definitely help me to churn out reports once I start.

2- Find a GF. This did not happen too, but am happy met a lot of people towards late of the year. And I realised that I would rather spend time to learn more about trading (until a more sustainable stage) before I devote more time on other sectors of my life

3- Exercise until 6 packs. Nope. I did lose weight because I was sick. My fitness level dropped towards end of 2017 because 1) my gym buddy is now in melbourne 2) lacking discipline

4- Book readings - i read 29 books this year, only two more than last year. Personal goal was 48 but looking back that is slightly unrealistic





Goals for 2018
Learn Investing/Trading

Practice Bazi
