Should I or Shouldn’t I?

Buy a car?

Recently I have been contemplating on buying a car. I understand it is expensive and parking fee is expensive and maintaining it is also expensive, but sometimes it can make life a lot easier if I had one.

The ideal car I have in my mind at the moment is the new Honda CRV. Slightly expensive, but at least it gets me around places and it has a lot of room.

Next up is probably the Volkswagen GTi.

VW Glf GTi

The pros and cons between these two are quite obvious. Both are fantastic cars, and people will probably tell me to go for the Golf GTi, and I would too, but the price of a GTi is a bit too deep. At NTD 1.2 mil. it’s not cheap. However, CRV is around NTD 0.97 mil. which is not that cheap either. On the other hand, the CRV is big, comfortable and the interior is much more luxury too. Except its big and slow but who needs a fast car in Taipei anyway?

See, this is the problem I have. If there is something I want really, I just cannot just make my mind on it. I can think, decide and compare, and by the time I actually do make the move, that would like after one year later.

Tough choice. At this time I wish I was rich so I could have just brought anything without thinking.

Cold and Wet

It was a cold and wet Chinese New Year.

It rained the whole time. Temperature dropped to 9 degrees. It was such a bad holiday.

The only good thing I got out of this was good sleep.

Sold My Phone

Not the Sony Ericsson, but the BenQ T51.

I started at NTD 3,500. No sell.

Lowered to NTD 3,400. No sell.

Throw in a phone chain. No sell.

Lowered to NTD 3,100. No sell.

Finally, at NTD 3,000. Sold.

This tells us, BenQ phones are really cheap.

One Solitary Number

I found out my bonus today.

I never expect myself to get much. Like always, if I expect too much, I can get more disappointed too.

My boss wrote this number on my notepad. This one solitary number, I was like, whoa!!

More than last year, and more than what I expected. Considering how bad the company did last year, I couldn’t ask for more.

I am going to have a very happy Chinese New Year.
