I can never imagine that she holds such an ambition, but who can blame her when she has to take care of 2 grown-ups who are still incapable of providing for her financially?

Well, at least I know where she stands in her perspective with regards to this household.

Heard that salesmen would sometimes get F1 tickets too. Of course, it would be for those who have performed well.

I could get used to this.

That crazy guy at home actually demanded the female inspector to wear plastic bags for her feet and a face mask. And the hilarious thing is she actually listened to him!

That scene must be the most comical thing mum has ever seen.

As such, I shall now only put up flattering images of anyone I know online and never to post unattractive ones. To be negligent to that effect would also be like an insult to your friend; making them look horrible to the public.

With commission, hopefully can bring in more than 3-4K a month, 5K with my business income, which is of course, the ideal scenario.

Speaking of which, traffic volume to my listings shot up 20 times to make a record high. I believe it is mainly because I have started listing my items at a fixed price instead of auction, which from research of their discussion forums, hinted that such selling format is more favored by the eBay search engine.

Called the website company to request that they start billing me for the website. And could instantly sense their willingness to oblige. Which means I am still pretty much dependent on my eBay sales to cover my other expenses (such as my Indonesian staff’s salary) since more than 90% of my take-home pay goes to paying that company.

Once the website is officially up, I can start working at getting in sales. Which involved me hiring someone locally to photograph items from existing shops who are waiting for me to fulfill my promise to ‘convert their entire store online’. Shall quit my day job once sales generated from this business surpasses my pay for at least 3 consecutive months.

This job looks interesting, with very promising potentials too. They are understaffed, and they have a huge pool of untapped customers, and they are expecting a huge turnaround in January.

Unless the lifestyle is extremely simple, like those of people living in rural villages with minimal duties, the activities that occupies our day will distract us from maintaining our mindfulness.

For us young blood with so much dreams and pursuits in life, it is just not possible to keep the mind at peace for prolonged hours.

But that does not justify us doing absolutely nothing. We have to constantly make the effort to discipline our mind to stay on the path, unrelenting despite our circumstances. And perhaps one day, we may finally be able to ‘see’ and be detached, to find true peace. conducive for our individual practice.

Although the quality isn’t at all desirable, being able to watch it is superb enough.

Finally, after almost 2 years of intensive studying, I can finally make sense of some of the programs. In 2-3 more years, I should be able to communicate confidently with native Japanese.

Each language requires so much dedicated time. Really have to find a way to learn more languages at a time.

Still, now with the experience of language learning, I am confident to take on learning other languages with ease.

And the most amazing thing was that it actually could still stagger away after a good few minutes. Tough bastard. They say they will not die unless you have their head smashed…

Shall post more of such job advertisements online for other countries soon. Hopefully one from Thailand real soon.

Next time, if I see that there are a lot of people there, I will refuse to commit any session again!

What a disaster. Stupid of me to insist on a sitting when the environment is not conducive.
