This Year's New Year Toto / 今年的千万多多

上星期五,今年的千万多多开奖了,与以往一样,并没有给我带来任何好运,没办法,只能明年再接再厉啦!

Last Friday, this year’s 11M Toto result was out. As usual, I didn’t get anything. What to do? Try it again next year!

与财富擦肩 / Rubbing shoulders with a fortune

最近,由于冰岛火山灰的影响,航班纷纷被取消,航空公司的业绩大受影响,股价受到重挫,新航就是其中之一。仅大前天一天就下降了五毛多,闭市报$14.96。我是前天一早看了报纸才知道的,早上想赶快吃进,早上的开盘价是$15.00,可一上网突然发现想不起来我的用户名和密码了,嘻嘻,从来还没交易过嘛,也不奇怪。心想着不着急,等晚上一到家第一时间赶快吃进。哪儿想到晚上到家一看,居然已经涨到$15.24了。一天之间便损失了200多块,真是令人痛断肚肠!本人向来对股票的升降有着强烈的第六感,这次看着史无前例的停飞报道却无动于衷,看来这次的破财是命中注定的啦!

Due to the recent eruption of volcanic ash in Iceland, many flights were cancelled. Airline companies lost out severely and their stock prices fell dramatically. SIA was one of them. I read in Wednesday’s ‘My Paper’ that the day before, SIA’s share price dropped 50 cents+ within a single day. The closing price was S$14.96. I was thinking of buying once I reached the company. The opening price on that day was S$15.00. But after logging into my site, I suddenly realized that I could not even remember my account number or password. Hehe, nothing strange there as I had never tried to activate the account since it was opened. So I was thinking of postponing it after finishing work. I logged in immediately after reaching home. You know what happened? It had already increased to S$15.24. I had lost more than S$200 in one day, all because of the account number and password. I just could not believe it and it was indeed a heartbreaking experience. I have always had a very strong sixth sense for the stock and share market. However, after watching all the volcano related news for several days, I didn’t even link it with the stock and share prices. How strange it is. It looks like I was destined to lose my fortune!
