Can I harbour hopes of Jnr's future being better than his present?

The Second Homerun

HIP! HIP! HOOORAY!!!!!

Junior had gotten a 2nd passing grade in Maths which was surprising cos his tutor bailed out at the crucial time. Nevertheless, it was a pat-on-the-back for him.

Yes, a reward is in the pipeline.

PS: His last passing grade was for last yr’s SA2 English.

Paying More For Less

Can you believe that yours truly was willing to pay S$27 for this eye cream which is 8g. And yet is rather unwilling to pay for THIS which cost the same but has a mass of 14g.

Why? you asked.

For the brand name, that's why. Now I just hope that it will work. Cos I ever bot a branded eye cream which doesn't work for me.

Hmm ... maybe I shud start using that and finish it all up. Instead of letting it collect dust.

Yeah ... maybe ...
