(useless) information

A 26yr old female whose brain is powered by caffeine; without its main fuel source it has a working speed slower than that of a slug. That aside, she wishes she could grow a teeny weeny bit (read: a lot) taller and constantly whines about her weight. Enjoys devising novel ways to traumatise people with her bludders. Oh, and she is rather antisocial.

-----------

Aihuat told me today that his rental flat will be taken back in 2007 and be demolished (I think to build more condos, dammit). So he needs to get a HDB flat by then. That was when he asked me if it's OK for us to apply for a flat.

Seriously, part of me wants to scream 'YES' - well, we've been together for 8 years, you know. 8 years. It's a pretty long time, though I know that the quality of relationships can't be measured by their durations. But I know that someday we'll spend the rest of our lives together (Ok, fine, I know that sounds mushy, I take that back). I really pity him, actually, having to face me everyday for the rest of his life.

But the other part of me was still unsure about the whole thing. Not that I doubt his feelings or anything, but I felt that the whole thing was kinda rushed. I'm still unemployed, and from the looks of the current situation, I doubt I can find a proper job anytime soon (though I'm still trying my best). I have a 20K debt that I still need to repay. I have two aging parents that I need to support. As you can see, my future doesn't look very rosy right now.

If we get a flat, we'll need approximately 250K. $250000. That's a quarter of a million. Aihuat's parents have indicated that they'll fork out money to pay the 1st instalment, but otherwise we're on our own. To add on to this flat problem, we have to get furniture and electrical equipment. Great. This means we'll be in debt for the rest of our natural lives.

So now, I've got to try and sort out my financial problems. I've got to find a job quickly. I know some of you have suggested getting a temp job. I've thought of that, too. But I'll have to see how it goes.

Right now, I just need a quiet place to think. Damn this whole mess.
