Let me tell you how bad it is. I asked a friend to come view my centre asap, before it's closed for business. I'm really worried. Things have not been going on well. A customer offered to help me distribute more flyers to get more customers so that my biz won't fold that I can continue teaching her daughter who has a case of intellectual disability.
Anyway, this friend of mine is totally ... Kind??? He said he wants to INVEST HIS $$$$ in my biz, but does not have enough money yet. I was totally stunned. Anywayz, I will definitely not take his money. The biz is too small - scale to earn enough profits to split.. It's good enough that he's been offering me moral support.
It's weird how he always thinks well of me. OVerly well in fact. Known him for 5 years. In this 5 years, he's been extremely lavish with his compliments on me. He would use words like beauty, beautiful, gorgeous, unique, intelligent, can do wonders blahblahblah.. Gosh. I can only say that it's a case of beauty lying in the eyes of the beholder. I'm definitely far from what he describes. Or perhaps, he says this to all teh girls. :) STrangely, JJ never ever thinks well of me. Well, maybe JJ knows me better? Whatever.
I've got a BBA. JJ's got an MBA. My mom's got superb salesmanship. BUT, the biz has been bad. I guess one reason is that she has chosen the wrong biz to do. I had wanted to go into retail, then later trading, which I think we would be able to manage very well, because retail is where her expertise lies. Now, we are foraying into an unknown biz.. Anyways, my mom has her own biz to look after, limited energy to help me too. And JJ's been too busy to help much, so effectively, his MBA has not contributed in anyway. Or so you would say, having a business degree does not mean that you will do well in biz.
Anyway, was happy teaching the children today, especially the boy. He reminds me of a panda. :) OF the 15 words Panda needs to learn for spelling tomorrow, he had only copied 8 words. He said before he could finish copying, the teacher had erased all the words. Damn. I wanted him to get full marks 15/15 for once, cos he's been failing ridiculously. Well.. I hope he will do all right tmr.. It means a lot to me that all the children improve in their results, their behaviour, their speech.. Panda has a very complicated family background. Hope I can help. I'm turning into a social worker.
HP beep. think JJ's checking on me to see if I am still awake. He's going to scold me! But I miss blogging! and reading blogs!!! DEprived. going to sleep..
I'm afraid.. :(

Either he is a real sweet-talker or you must really believe that beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder...i do believe in the latter...hee :)
Gotta admit though, I think its nice that he's showing concern for your sleeping hours. One of his saving graces, heheh.
If he totally didn't care, he wouldn't have bothered checking. So it's a good sign. I'm not saying it excuses everything else that's happened, but I'm just saying he's not a total arse. :P
And kudos to you for turning down the money. I've always felt that it's a bad idea to get business tied in with friendship. Too much potential to go 'boom' in your face.
me can help u distribute flyers in my district too! ^-^
blush >> i believe he's both. haha
dingy >> ya, he does have his merits, but some faults just cannot be compromised despite other merits right? e.g. A man massages her wife's tired shoulders everyday. But he punched her in the eye during a quarrel. He's still bad. ha.. :) oh.. u have explained that u are just trying to say that he's not a total arse. ya..he's not. whatever. forget it.. i'm depressed about my relationship since after the first week together. been working on it ever since.
u know, i think husbands and wives can't work together in a business too. think they will end up in a divorce.. perhaps, i read too many such stories. There always seem to be a lot of flawed and failed relationships around.
wendy>> that's awesome of u girl.. :) but dun need lah. :) say a prayer for me will do. Pray for me!!!!!
