Extra Ecstasy~ vs Final Fantasy!!

For a person like me, getting excited is something that rarely occurs these days. There is nothing to get flustered about, and nothing really raises my interest. Except maybe the Wheel of Time novel series by Robert Jordan. But aside from that, my body feels hotter than usual and my appetite greater than every other day. To explain this, its important to note that one reason was something that happened about a week ago. Another was something that happened today. Oh well, yesterday to be exact.

The first one:

My chance to get to riches. Well, not the billions you hear about on TV and reality shows, but maybe a couple of millions, in ringgit of course. So how did this opportunity come about? One fine day, my dad's client from china sent him an email. And in it were requests for a few things. Some obviously asked for my dad to source different types of petroleum products and the last one, which is what i wanna talk about, is about mineral ores. No, we don't trade in that, but they want shipping services and chartered vessels to transport around 15million tonnes of ore this year. More like ore sands. So my dad was just plain busy trying to source sellers to fill the first couple of requests, and i volunteered to help source ships for the last one.

I think my dad trusts me a lot and is getting more encouraging nowadays, maybe because i have shown myself as an asset. But i m still lacking in many aspects, and experience in negotiation. I must admit, I have this deep innate fear of failure and the impact it brings, most of all to my pride and esteem. On the other hand, i have always agreed with my dad's saying that i am not ready to face the world yet. How can I be, when i have yet to face any big failures or cross any great hurdles. Only when i stumble and fall, and learn to climb up from the abyss of total demise can i become strong and firm in the face of adversity.

But all that aside, i happen, by luck and God's blessing, to have a friend with contacts in such an industry. As an IT salesperson, it's just plain luck he was telling me about approaching such clients in large logistics and shipping companies and making good friends among them. And a week after that this request came in. How nice!! I can't exactly place it as pure coincidence, but i will fully leverage on this one opportunity that crossed my path. And imagine, if i just made USD0.10 out of every transported tonnage. That would make around USD 1.5 mil a year alone. Nice eh? Even better when it's in ringgit, even when the USD is weakening, its still quite ok for me.

Second Case:

It's wednesday, someone asked if i was going to college. I said yeah, why not. She said she could make it there around 230pm. And so i made it too. Only i messaged her expecting to be late, but ended up early in college, while she expected me to be late, so she arrived late (by leaving late). Either way, we had some quality time together, talked, tried to fit subjects into our own convenient time slots, and she managed to persuade me to take a subject together with her. Motivation. That's the subject. I don't mind since it's as good as any other subject, so well. And i get to attend classes with her together as well. So yeah.

Another thing happened after that. She decided to give me a lift. At first it was to Carrefour in Sri Petaling, but she ended up dropping me at home. I really have to thank her, and thank my incredible luck. I think she's really being very nice to me. I just hope she will think of me in a slightly different way, a more intimate and erm, possibly allow me to get one step closer? Nah, that's all wishful thinking for the time being. Either way I do hope I can get closer to her this semester. And get rich at the same time. Talk about an aspiring pimp daddy eh...

Well, about time to wrap it up. Friends, family, relatives, Bratjas, wish me luck!! And God Bless my endeavours...
