MY FINANCIAL IQ
I started the New Year by depleting my bank account. As of the moment, the balance is zero. And I am happy.
Er… what did I do with the money? Well, the purchase is still in the process and I am quivering with excitement (I am exaggerating, of course). Anyway, about this time, a piece of news came out about the “financial IQ” of the average Filipino dropping to a staggering 48. Perhaps mine is way below that, but what the heck. Heath Ledger died at 28. Y’all dig my drift?
Besides, the American bank, who set store on high savings as benchmark for the supposedly sound financial intelligence of us mortals, of course, wanted to keep our moonies within their vault as much as possible (to the extent of branding us financially stupid)…
So…
Still…
I feel guilty. T.T
But what can I do?
Bwahaha.

HAPPY NEW YEAR
It’s the New Year and besides an overdose of tikoy, I was inspired a bit to write this piece:
In the Chinese zodiac, I was born in the Year of the Monkey. So I am supposed to be clever, highly inventive – an erratic genius of the cycle (whatever that means). I was almost impressed with the accuracy of this list of my virtues but unfortunately, it did not mention anything about being sexy. T.T So it must be flawed one way or another. lol
Now, seriously, I have been and would be guided by a plagiarized motto come 2008: Keep walking.
And on life’s (not necessarily this year’s) to do list?
Have the Mazda
Learn to swim
Publish a book
Fall in love
Have kids
Visit Macedon
Get rich
Meet interesting friends
And so on
so forth…
