buy high, sell higher.

i'm lucky enough to be surrounded by some people who are just very very sharp with numbers, very in the know on global news, very keen on the worlds intermixed position politically and financially across a vast field of industries.  this is pretty evident in some of the obscure political and financial articles and posts i blog every so often.  these select few are quite amazing at looking at economies of scale and filling in the holes deriving intuitive theoretical applications.  and with my insatiable curiosity, it seriously pushes me in a direction helpful of predicting ebbs and flows which i can hopefully capitalize on in years to come.

"life comes down to a few moments...she's one of them for u"  - k.e.

they always say, if the dollar's dipping, buy gold.  i've actually been looking at diamonds lately.  yep, u hear that chomo?  buy it now so by the time u need it, it will have appreciated enough to trade up (or u can use it as a get out of jail free card, hahaha).  i actually know someone that did that.  don't you worry, im proposing next month. haha.

and while i'm on the subject of taking steps towards domesticity, i just found out that i will be moving in about 2 weeks.  goodbye cuscaden residences, hello gloucester mansion.  i'm in no position to complain or be picky, even though i'm sure ya'll know that i've definitely got something to say about the place, however, this means that i will NO LONGER BE LIVING OUT OF A BACKPACK, I WILL NO LONGER HAVE TO SLEEP ON THE COUCH (unless i pass out on it), and most of all, I WILL FINALLY HAVE MY OWN PRIVACY!!!  this comes at a great moment, cuz not only will i have my own place in spore, the taiwan apt is finished in the next 2 weeks as well!

been drinking so much lately that it's hard for me to kind of remember when the last "good night" was.  i do detox for a few days here and there but because my body has been so used to substance abuse, there are slight withdrawal cravings i need to control to keep my sanity alive amidst this current streak of jetsetting.  it's good that phase 2 of my singapore move seems to be in effect, this semi creation of a spore niche should ease up on the extraneous debauchery, but knowing me, opens doors to new vices.  the end of the year is just going to fly by.  took some time to look at the calendar, my personal schedule is gonna "fly" by in 3 week segments and don't forget all the frequently last minute corporate travel that needs to take place during "contract season".
