Check out all those funny-looking flowers on the ceilings inside the RWS convention centre ;p btw, could u identify my leechie idol, mr. liew, in this pic? =)
Leechie lurves this beautiful castle at Universal Studio ♥ ♥ ♥
My self portraits...not easy to include both the objects n me in the pics...cos i have short leechie arms @.@"
Learnt tt there r about 67,000 Capitaland retail investors n about 13,000 of us indicated interest to attend this year's investor day at RWS but there r only 1,500 vacancies available...so they did an electronic balloting to decide who the lucky ones are before sending out the confirmation letters...so u could imagine my excitement when i received my confirmation letter...YES, i'm the chosen one!!! keke ;p well, i knew deep in my heart even before receving the letter tt i was chosen...cos i was v.much looking forward to hear my leechie idol, mr. Liew Mun Leong, speak live as i miz his speech during CapitaMalls Asia's launch last yr! o.O when u want something so badly...the universe gotta conspire to make it happen for u ya ;p lol...pls excuse leechie n her leechie logic...u dont have to agree with me...but u gotta admit tt leechie is entitled to her own opinions ya ;p
An excited leechie walked into RWS...searching for the convention centre n ballroom...this was the second time tt i've been to rws...but the place is big manz...n i was still rather unsure abt my directions...this was the first time tt i've been to RWS Convention Centre...well, i was pretty amused with the flowers on the ceilings...lol (check out the pics ;p) such contrast to the classy convention centre at MBS ;p pretty cool tt i've been to these 2 new convention centres within the space of less than a month! B-) gotta say tt the capitaland staff were really fast n efficient with the registration n stuff...which was so unlike some staff from some other organizations hosting such big scale events o.O oops...gotta apologize for my caustic tongue again ;p
My leechie idol, mr. Liew Mun Leong, was the first speaker...n he gave an overview of Capitaland's progress over the past 10 yrs...Capitaland has 5 steady engines of growth ---> residential, malls, offices, serviced apartments n funds =) well, Capitaland is celebrating our 10th year anniversary this year! =) n mr. Liew kept stressing to us tt it's "your company"! it's true...but the way tt he said it makes my leechie heart feel so warm manz =) Capitaland also launched its 10th year anniversary book today n each of us was given a copy in our goodie bag =)
Hmmmm, most of the investors who attended this investor day were the usual uncles n aunties type...with v.few youngsters...so again, ppl seemed rather surprised to see a leechie there =.=" btw, i actually saw my uni classmate there...cos he asked a question during the Q&A abt how Capitaland differentiated ourselves from other property developers...think he was there with his wife but i didnt see him after tt ler o.O well, cos there was a mad rush for food after the presentations...as usual, all those uncles n aunties were fighting for food -.-" they prepared bento sets for us as well as buffet spread of sushi n pastries =) i pop over to listen to mr. Oliver Lim (the CFO of Capitaland) field questions before he was whisked away cos mr. Liew was looking for him....mr. Lim was being his usual charismatic self B-) n again, mr. Liew was nowhere to be seen after the presentations...i would really like to go shake his hands if i had the opportunity to o.O
During the Q&A, a lady asked y Capitaland's share price has yet to return to its previous highs before the financial crisis n yet SGX's share price has already surpassed its previous highs...(well, tt was before the ASX thingy was announced ya) mr. Liew explained tt we gotta divide the current share price by a ratio of 0.66 cos there was a rights issue...hmmm, i did my calculations...think, it worked out to be around 6.30 as compared to previous highs of 8++ o.O"
Anyway, i gotta include a disclaimer here --->
this is not an inducement for anyone to trade...n no liability shall be claimed against a leechie for my leechie comments...n pls direct all your trading n investment related queries to ur broker or banker... leechie aint qualified to answer your questions...n pls dont ask me abt my personal leechie portfolio, i'm not obliged to divulge anything...n pls dont ask my frenz which stocks i hold...they r v.bz ppl too...btw, pls dont waste ur time trying to figure out my leechie net worth by asking which stocks i hold, etc...my net worth is my net worth...it has absolutely nothing to do with anyone...apologies, no offence, but there r really some guys who r so damn curious with these questions -.-"
After the dinner, we went into RWS Universal studios...there was this special Shrek 4D show at the beautiful castle inside the amusement park meant for Capitaland investors only...the effects were so good tt i went in again to watch the last show of the nite for the 2nd time =) leechie lurves the beautiful castle n the crown in front of it! took plenty of pics =) the theme park staff was really helpful n personally brought me to Steven Spielberg's Lights, Camera & Action studio when i asked for directions there..."Lights, Camera & Action" was the other show prepared for Capitaland investors only...think the set was based on a waterboat house with tornado of scale 5...the effects of this 7 minute show was really cool manz...so i went in there again to watch a second time ;p took some pics as well...keke ;p n there was fireworks display at the lake at 9.30pm...the fireworks were so beautiful manz n i took so muchie pics! walked around the Hollywood Walk of Fame n took more pics...but the Universal Studios souvenir shops were closed before i could shop for anything =.=" nvm, there is always the next time ya =) i actually asked bro to go universal studio with me but he wanna laze at home...so this was what he miz out on...lol ;p sorry bro ;p for those of u who have miz out on this exciting Capitaland Investor Day 2010, do refer to the video here: http://www.capitaland.com/videos/index.php?vid=0

Interesting Quotes:"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." ~ Merry
"Our lives are not determined by what happens to us but by how we react to what happens, not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life.

"Master the art of manifestation by mastering your human self. What this means is that when you are able to be your True Self, in charge of your human self, you will be able to create the results you desire to have in your life easily, effortlessly & joyously.

Poor people do." ~ Harv
