CL 15min

No, it isn't me that's unhappy (SURPRISE!!!). It's the folks around me.

The subject of why singaporeans are generally and constantly cheerless and joyless used to intrigue me - now it just annoys me.

I decided that:

1. People who don't make an effort to at least LOOK happy are selfish people - I am about the most (CLINICALLY, bordering on psychopathically) depressed person I know, and if I can smile to almost anyone (save those I hate) that interacts with me, surely all the sane folks out there can do much better - and I've not the slightest interest to understand them.
2. Our people scowl riotously because they are not encouraged/allowed to express their anger/discontentment/frustration creatively. That said, I am still vehemently FOR punishing graffiti vandals - SORRY, LW (Long & Wrong) and Black - we should all draw on our own walls and vehicles ONLY.
3. Once I am able to identify the activity that will keep my mind occupied in the 14 hours before US market opens, unhappy people would cease to bother me. Which means that I probably need a new job.
4. If all else fails (to make me less unhappy), I shall think of J and chant his name.
   

Regarding trading (see chart above) - I found out that mascara is NOT the secret (wore it on Fri - the day I entered the trade - then on Mon and Tues too, and went without it on Wed - the day I closed the trade - and didn't lose money... although I did lose a whole load of self-respect and self-esteem...); perhaps nail varnish IS (why else would LW be testing it??).

Manjot,
Re your question on trading advice - my answer is: DON'T give them.
On a serious note, I'm serious about the aforementioned.
Will drop you a line nonetheless.
