Russia . United States of America . Singapore

based on World Bank's July 2014 statistics 
Russia has a a PPP(purchasing power parity) of $3.461 trillion in 2013
by October 2013, 35% of all its financial assets are owned by a mere 110 individuals
hmm.. that's just sad for the other folks now i reckon

in 2013 Russia's imports are estimated at $341 billion
just below Singapore's of $373 billion?!
in 2013 Russia's exports are estimated at $515 billion
just a tad above Singapore's of $410 billion?!

lol wow.. i guess we're doing quite well
considering as of July 2014, Russia still has an external DEBT of $720.9 billion
as compared to Indonesia's $251 billion
and us Singaporeans at $0. not bad eh
yup! we have no debt.. we have no natural resources too sadly :(

abt that.. Russia has a massive amount of natural resources
in fact quite a large % of export is derived from their energy exports(gas & oil)
they also have impressive combat aircraft & air defence systems
i'm not sure about their ban on food imports from EU & US etc though
i keep thinkin that their food & nutrition is already severely lacking in quality, no?

what's their deal? what are they thinking?
what do d common Russian citizens have to say?
i guess i'll just have to wait & see what unfolds by 2015/16

come on USA hurry up with your country's revival
you have plenty of friends here in South-east Asia! hihi
gogogo keep up your surge in power
make it a multi-faceted growth too while you're at it not just in economy

the Swedish welcomes you, gladly if i might add
Canada should be happy to assist too
surely they don't want to see France in Europe get 
decimated by the mindless brute force of future mother Russia

ok.. facts turning into fantasy here LOL dot dot dot..
i should just stop & go to bed haha
but first lemme take a se.. (shut up, me!!)

Thoughts on Compelling New Job . LCS 2014

so i recently started working at my new job
such a different environment compared to any other i've experienced thus far

this is one of the several areas that i can be stationed at during my shift.

unquestionably, i love the scenery(plants, trees, flowers, faraway horizons etc etc) & how it eases my eyes off of the years of fatigue build-up it has gone thru staring at screens. of course, there has to be a balance in everything, i guess this period is a great "rehab" time for the side effects i've obtained by growing up as a computer gamer. gonna take a long while before i can recover tho but i'll surely welcome it w/ open arms.

expel the bad, retain the good.
that's what it's all about baby =D haha

everything seems intertwined as well because somehow, i feel d atmosphere here is just strikingly relaxed & acutely positive at d same time. perhaps it's just my current forward-looking mindset dat exaggerates its affirmation abt this place but surely there has to be some truth in it for me to think this way eh. haha

albeit d salary is markedly low.. i mean it can't even be classified as d average mean of a grunt's pay in d first-world city dat we live in. but then again there r so many plus points to this job dat it kinda overrules this meagre disparity imo. besides, d main point is d leniency that this vocation provides onto my mental & physical state. i have to use this time to see where my next path lies. 

since i'm already quite competent & knowledgeable in some of d best deals toward food, drinks & snacks, survivability shouldn't be an issue during this break time. well i say break because it's quite similar to showing up for a longer guard duty & getting some pocket money for it. lol.. anyway so i just need to gauge how much i can spare toward my preferences(e.g. koi milk tea vs coffee shop milk tea) as i can get quite selective at times due to varying reasons. undoubtedly, d staple diet of carbs, protein, fibre & micro nutrients is a top priority dat i have in place over my taste buds dat's for sure haha.

there r so many more attractive options like upgrading to become a full-timer in this line of work or simply finding any full-time job out there but right now, i prefer this three-four days of work per week. it's absurdly easy for me to find a full-time job dat pays me well into d 2k grade but at wad cost? my enjoyment or satisfaction? pfft.. been there done that took a picture yadayada.. which is y i prefer to take some time to think abt it thoroughly. let it brew at d back of my mind for a bit while i continue to be an asset to my current vocation =) i expect it to not be so soon dat i can show myself to be a trustworthy, reliable & dependable employee. every good thing needs time to bloom & so it'll be d same for me. yes there r some exceptions but i'd prefer to haul ass instead of dreaming to win a lottery ticket. fruits of labour baby haha.
