善后

最近的我已变成了莱佛士医院的常客了。

老爸的大肠癌手术、近几个月又陆陆续续的入院、出院、阿宁的心脏搭支架手术、还有我那即将到来的常年健康检查,让我对那间医院产生了恐惧感。

其实生病的人很辛苦,但他的亲人家人也同样的辛苦、痛苦。亲身的体验让我的精神饱受煎熬。我即使再乐观、再乐天派,让老爸那样的欺负、折腾,往往都让我说了很多不该说的话。辛亏有弟妹来分担,也没有小孩的负担,至少还未崩溃,但也令我的情绪很脆弱。

所以,已对阿宁说,日后我生病了,就把我送到疗养院去。既然咱们都没有下一代,疗养院的确是个很好的选择,毕竟在哪儿可得到妥当的照顾。而且对家人应该不会有太大的压力吧。其实阿宁不喜欢我讲这些,但始终得面对现实。

Financial Turmoil

It started off with Lehman Brothers declaring bankrupt, closely followed by AIG shouting for help. Stock markets all over the world plummet like nobody business. Indices yoyo-ing up down up down. So roller-coasterish..... :(

As at now, my stocks' portfolio has gone down for 45%. This is crazy. Looking at the stock market now, all the blue chips are damn cheap (oops, JJ, if you are reading this, please do not imitate me using the "damn" word).

So, should I feel sad or happy? I feel like going shopping, for stocks........

Quote of the Day

"If the Ferrari president is right about the Singapore GP being a circus, then we have to be grateful to him for providing the clowns." -- Bernie Ecclestone

I couldn't help laughing when I read the papers this morning. What a lousy loser. Just because Felippe Massa had a fiasco driving away from the pits with the refuelling hose still attached to his car. Definitely a nightmare. His team mate, Kimi Raikkonen crashed into the barrier, during the last 4 laps. This, confirmed, must dui sim gua........
