Hello again...
Same shit, different day, as Stephen King wrote in "The Shawshank Redemption", one of the greatest stories in my estimation.
Today represents a small improvement on the previous days, I guess. I managed to sell my Accord Customer Care shares at 43c each and reap a profit of about S$180 and recouped my capital of S$1082.13, which is not bad, considering that I once had to stare in horror as it plummetted, until a nadir of 23c,at which point, it represented a loss of over 35% over just 2 days. I also reaped a small profit on the Kuala Lumpur market from the likes of CBS Tech, Golden Plus and Sersol.
However, I hung tough, which is what counts and tides one through the sometimes stomach-churning gyrations of the stockmarket.
That said, I'm still in a rather dull stupor that lingered since the night before. I guess I still miss holding someone but yet, I resolve to get over this 'hangover' to get on with life.
I need to start living, for my own sake, and stop worrying endlessly about things which people think at the back of their minds are guaranteed, but are not, for ill fortune can snatch them away in any flash of time. Nothing is guaranteed in life, but I guess pride and self-preservation are the most worthwhile when it comes to fighting tooth and nail.
If my appearance makes me unapproachable,seem hostile or causes me to be misunderstood, then it's just a cross that I have to bear. I'm not going to bend over backwards to make people like me or see my inner niceness. This is due to the fact that, ultimately, my pride is of utmost importance, and I won't pay any price to lose it. I guess most other people are the same.
Anyway, none of my previous loves were lost causes. Anson gave me a nice Adidas watch; Ben gave me a DVD(which I haven't even watched yet!) and allowed me to tape several shows from cable television; Robin gave a pair of cool cK sunglasses and cooked up some nice stuff when we were together; Erwin allowed me to experience what it was like to be with a totally straight-acting, well-built guy while Ray allowed me to experienced a teenager and gave me the idea of writing my own electronic diary(this blog of course!) and allowed me a new way of venting my sometimes profound thoughts.
