My new skates [wishlist updated]

Finally, I bought my skates last sat. Actually wanted to get the $199 skates, but after trying and listening to the advice given by the shop assistant and my friend, I changed my mind. The $199 is of composite frame which is no different with the pair that I already have at home. Of coz K2 is a better brand then the one I have at home which is Scorpion brand (bought from World of Sports a few mths ago). But.... my friend told me that I will need a new pair soon after a while coz composite frame is just not good enough.

A recreational inline skater will eventually go onto a metal frame skates with better wheels and bearings. So messwell get that in the 1st rather then having to upgrade after a few mths. Waste money only like tat.

So instead of $199, I bought the skates for $359 (with $50 discount).

Let me present my new K2 Moto 07 inline skates.






So wishlist updated.
Got my K2 skates.
Added new Mobile phone (model to be confirmed)

Went to the PC show on thursday nite. Went to the Singtel booth. So many new phones on offer leh. But.... my stupid 21mth contract only ends next mth end and they can only allow me to get a new contract one mth before it ends. So as of last friday, I have one and half mths before the contract ends. The singtel lady say I got to pay 100 bucks more. Siao bo. Just half a mth more only and they dun allow. So stupid rite. Got money for them to earn and yet they refused.

So in the end I went home with 2 pints of Anderson icecream. UOB one card got 1-for-1 offer. Haa.... 10.50 only.

So just put the new phone wish in my wish list lah. See later in the year got other offers anot.

I guess you guys must be thinking how come I got money now since in my previous few posts, I rattled that I have no money. Well, I just cant stand having to feel vex becoz I have no money and i cant buy wad i want and keep checking my bank account balance and forecasting my GIROs and IPPs and other expenses even before they are due. I just hate the feeling.

So I terminated my Month Savings account. Anyway I didnt regret it even though I got 16 dollars of interest instead of 400 dollars if i stay on the savings plan until the 24mths is up. I admit i was too ambitious, thinking I could save so much in a month. Anyway I feel so much happier now.

No money, no honey.....

why no money, no honey? no money, no gf lor.... haha no lah.

honey is referring to angela and k2 skates.

After watching gong zhu xiao mei aka romantic princess, starring angela zhang and wu zhun, i apparently fell in love with angela. haha.. she's kinda cute and sings very well also. I think she did very well in the show. the wu zhun, wah so very yandao. if i m a girl, maybe i will like him also wahaha. anyway, why no money, no angela? becoz today she is having her world tour concert 2008 at singapore expo!!! and i have no money to go watch!!!! wahahaha.

And then the k2 skates as usual. wahaha...






so sianzz. but well.... who told me to commit myself to a 24 month savings plan. nw every month, a substantial amount of my salary goes there, leaving the rest for me to survive on.

well, actually this is also good lah, help me make sure i save some money every month. after working for 2.5 years, still not much saving. so go to save up for rainy days. moreover, the saving plan will give a higher interest after the 24mths is up. The interest will not be a lot since the end amount will not be a huge sum. But, its a win-win situation for me lah.
