			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s not the best way to start the new year. i worked half day and took half day mc.</p>
<p>throbbing headaches, achy body and sore throat. symptoms of flu, said the doctor. I was hoping for 1.5 days of mc, so i can just sleep and sleep for tomorrow, but the doctor don&#8217;t share my view. nevertheless, 0.5 days is good enough for me, as it marks my first MC in my kp life. nothing to be proud of, but disappointed that i finally broke the record.</p>
<p>i was briefed of my tight time line for my current engagement, i got a feeling i am going to die doing it. i really have to give my 101% for this to be able to see myself through this. i hope i can do it though, it&#8217;s a good learning ground actually.</p>
<p>nothing much happening in stock market, i&#8217;m just eyeing on some penny stocks, hoping to get some quick profits. <img src='http://zandon.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Alrighty, enough of resting and let&#8217;s get down to business.</p>
<p>Earlier on, i set myself some general directions, which i think is pretty good, but more details is needed if i were to follow through!</p>
<p><strong>CFA</strong><br />
an hour a day. 30questions a day(preferably do on train to/back work).</p>
<p>order = ethic&amp;quanti, corp fin +pm + equity inv, fixed income + derivative + alt inv, FSA, econ.</p>
<p>target number of questions completed: 3.5k</p>
<p><strong>Finance</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Invest monthly about 300-400 bucks into my own stock watchlist.</li>
<li>Start my online shop! basically managing a dropshipping business.</li>
</ol>
<p>For investment, mostly need to keep a close watch on the few stocks in my watchlist. realize the profit when it hit its intrinsic value, or take the loss when it fall 20% of the purchase price.</p>
<p>Online shop was something i wanted to do, but due to whatever reasons in the past, i was deter from it. I feel online business has its own potential, it&#8217;s not going to be easy, but at least its something i can do in my free time <img src='http://zandon.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
ok i cant say much about this here, but i&#8217;m writing down the game plan in my notebook!</p>
<p><strong>Travelling!</strong></p>
<p>Plan to save 3k(after paying tix and accom i hope) for the highly anticipated vacation in july. destination unknown, but heck it, will decide when things are more certain. i only have limited leave though! note: the numbers may not make sense, coz i was gonna sell off some of my shares for this! <img src='http://zandon.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>Fitness</strong></p>
<p>I am on a game plan already. i just need to stick to it till the end i guess <img src='http://zandon.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>some lame game plan i have here? we&#8217;ll see <img src='http://zandon.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s 2010. everyone is celebrating, so am i.</p>
<p>normally this is where people look back and summarise 2009 but i&#8217;m not going to do it. its a lame 2009 actually, especially towards the end. so let&#8217;s not think abt it and move on.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s a lot of resolutions i had previously that i havent done it. 2010 is a good year to clear those resolutions. I have made the following the higher priorities ones.</p>
<p>1) Be FIT. Ok i&#8217;m working towards it, got slimmer but not where i wanna be, so will keep at it.</p>
<p>2) Travelling. This year i MUST go one of the following places.</p>
<ul>
<li>Maldives</li>
<li>Europe (Italy/France/Germany)</li>
<li>Vietnam</li>
<li>Laos</li>
<li>Japan</li>
<li>HK</li>
</ul>
<p>Wah the list looks long and nice, but i&#8217;m limited by number of pathetic leave i have, so i can only choose 1.</p>
<p>3) PROMOTION! Duhz.</p>
<p>4) Reach my financial goal and ultimately to my financial dream <img src='http://zandon.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>5) Pass CFA.</p>
<p>6) Last but not the least, be happier in 2010 than in 2009.</p>
<p>there&#8217;s a lot more but i guess these are the ones that if i truly achieved in this year, i can look back and give myself a pat and say &#8220;yes its a good year&#8221;.</p>
