Money buys happiness;
but not forever.
We all need money,
money for us to buy our needs and wants;
money for us to enrich and enhance our lives;
money (literally) for survival.
It certainly can make us happier, but how long can this last? (:
According to one study, joining a group that meets just once a month produces the same happiness gain as doubling your income.
According to another, being married produces a physic gain equivalent to more than US$100,000(S$140,000) a year.
Impressive figures?
There are many things we can do to make ourselves happier, those are just a few examples to show that simple things can actually make us a happier person, other than having money.
The Conclusion?
Money is definitely not a good gauge for happiness.
Anyway, It's already April!
I-so-cannot-believe-it!!!
Hahaha. This is how scary time is. Before you even know, time just passes so so so quickly!
Had an awesome time for the past 2 weeks, outing outing with my family and my lovely friends (jo and margaret, the hexagonals, and my fellow s15).
Colleagues are treating me well, and i'm doing good at work.
Volleyball training is still as enjoyable as ever.
And and i've gotten myself a new phone,finally gotten rid of the rotten old one :D
Life haven't been better (:
Nothing much from me alreadyyyyy.
That's all for now!
Adios, my friends!
