Will and have to keeonp this entry short and sweet. Currently having my mud mask on my face, so I have to complete this entry within the next 10 minutes.

I spent my last 5 minutes paying for my VPS for this coming month. Kinda happy with the service I got for the VPS – priced at US$40 monthly. Oh yah, 3 months ago, I named the first IP after my girlfriend, VIP – Very Important Princess.

Ok, just washed off the mask. I never fail to take more than 15 minutes to write an entry. I’ll probably take another 25 minutes to write this.

I don’t remember myself writing about how I spent my days and weeks recently.  Life has been good. Other than spending one or two evenings with my girl, I’ll spend them with my friends or my dear computer at work.

I met up with my dear friend James on Monday to pass him some apps for his new aCer laptop. I hope he won’t regret buying an aCer laptop – ultra bad quality (i.e requires frequent visits to service centre). Mhm, maybe my luck isn’t good. But good luck. We had tasty dinner at the ‘cheapest‘ Japanese food restaurant at Clementi.

Some work was going to be due the next day, so I stayed back at office on Tuesday. I had dinner with 6 other colleagues at a Thai & Chinese restaurant over at City Hall before officially starting OT. It was tiring to work, but no choice. Afterall, I’m used to coding after sunsetsâ„¢. =)

Wednesday was a fine day. Work concluded at 6.45 for a ‘karaoke gathering’ with colleagues. 11 of us in total so don’t expect a list of 11 names over here. With my five (six, actally) senses, I ..

• .. am kinda certain that Michelle & hubby loves to sing.
• .. feel that Sun Yi and Sam should start a band and start singing instead of coding.
• .. see the shy side of Melissa. My first time seeing someone’s face turning red as fast as mine.
• .. ‘mother’ aka Jasleen’s voice is super-duper sweet!
• .. love singing too. =) 

We went for nice Chinese (四川) food after the k-session. 口水鸡 was ultra spicy. I admit  and don’t like spicy food and I don’t take much.

I’m taking too long.

Watched the Bee Movie with my boyfriend and his brother. Quite a nice cartoon. I got back my favourite BLUE iPod from Virginia before the movie. Had dinner at my boy’s place. We walked around causeway point after dinner.

Today. Just another Friday. Lots of work. Blew my nose many many times (usually when I feel stressed). Lunch with Gary, Junze, 2 Melissas and Val. Ate nothing during tea time coz I was too busy.

Back home. Home sweet home!

I took 1 hour and 10 minutes to write this entry. Brain cells were killed during the process. Actually I didn’t take so long to write, maybe 70% of it. 30% was spent on Facebook and other websites.

Good night.

I received an email from Tatarah regarding refunding processing fees for cancelled auctions when I didn’t even pay a single cent. Can’t they target just those who paid? Oh, maybe this is an email to remind you that Tatarah exists.

Just to share with you how much Tatarah earns per auction.

Nintendo Wii 
Retail:$659.00
#07A000C
Purchased by Member ID: 182E4860
SOLD AT $0.36

I’m unsure how much the processing fees was for this product, but I am certain the fees for an iPod was $1 with the product priced at around $348. So for a product priced at $659, automatically if you know your maths, the processing fees should be around $2, or $1.50.

Now we’ll do alittle maths:

Processing fees (Let’s assume) : $1.50
Number of bidders for the Wii (above) : 634
Total processing fees collected: $951.00 (before tax; I remember reading that processing fees include tax – LOL?)
Total processing fees collected: $884.43 (after tax)
Tatarah earns: $225.43 OR MORE

I’m assuming processing fees was $1.50 and not $2.

I conclude

633 of you lost $2 (better luck next time, yea?). Hey, isn’t this same as buying 4D? Muslims, tell me if it’s right to bet. Uhm, is this considered betting? I’m unsure. I just feel this is just like buying 4D and Toto.

Tatarah earnt $225.43 or more (okay, or less). Way to go.

Have you tried Tatarah? How was the experience? How much processing fees did you pay?
