Burned a BIG hole in My Pocket

This is totally out of my calculation. I didn’t expect to spend so much this month! I have almost spent all the cash in my primary bank account!

I had swiped RM9,324.78 out of RM10,000 credit line of my credit card in December 2008! New record!

How did I spend the money?

I went to Kuala Lumpur for the PIKOM PC Fair 2008 (III) and stayed for 7 days. Some money was spent on meals, clothes, and gifts.

I helped my brother bought a netbook, ASUS Eee PC 1000H (~RM1900) at the PC Fair.

And, I bought Canon EOS 450D kits (RM2400, cash) + Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM lens (RM3900, credit card) at Sungei Wang.

As soon as I back from KL, I signed and confirmed the purchase of the new Honda City 2009, which cost RM89,980. Plus, a special number plate — RM1,000. I decided to pay more on down payment and it is most of the cash in my primary bank account.

I got new camera, new car… what’s now?“Now you have new camera and new car, you should have a new look too!”, my friend suggested to change my hairstyle. I have never changed it since I know how to comb my hair!

This is my new look.

  • you got the wrong lens for ur cam, your photos are cropped due to the crop factor of 1.6, when a EF lens is used in a EF-S body, the range is no longer 24mm, instead it will be 38.4mm... its a great lose, image taken at 17mm or 18mm is the best because it has a wider angel, capturing lots of interesting background details/scene

    Does the recent economy crisis hit your Adsense earning?
  • LcF
    the economy crisis is not so much affecting adsense earning yet..
  • It makes you look more younger. Well... good look ! Yeh ! I think most of them are right. Just have some female frens first. Thenafter, choose the right ONE to become your better half.
  • Some lifestyle modification would be a great start to 2009 too my friend. I've been a silent reader of your blog ever since you still were working in an IT company, I don't recall you ever talking about exercise even in your Life Log...

    So give it a shot. It will do wonders!! Happy New Year!
  • Who shouldn't be happy?. Greatest fear is not spending at all.
    Thumbs up for supporting the economy.
  • dude, wtf?

    Anyway, Happy spending but dun forget to save some for this year....

  • Liew, why you put up the model image of honda city, you should upload the real picture of yours mah.
  • I think new City not yet arrive, normally have to wait few months. How long is the estimate waiting period for this hot model? I haven't seen one on road yet.
  • LcF
    @Lim: I should get it before Chinese New Year (26 Jan 2009)
  • Actually this model is better than the previous model. It looks better just to start with. So... I guess it's a hole worth burning in the buyer's pocket haha...
