Wow, New Bicycle!

My wife was lucky enough to win herself a new bicycle from a company event yesterday.

The chances were small, but I guess it was her day, and took the top prize.

It’s a small bicycle, the exact model is a 6-speed Giant FD806. Nothing really fancy about it, but it is still good to have, at least it is something I can use to get me around places without the need of walking long distance, or driving.

My wife, on the other hand, wants to get rid of the bicycle. I don’t blame her, because stupid management people at work is practically forcing people to buy bicycles and join them on their weekly bicycle rides. I promised myself not to buy a bicycle because personally I thought it would be a waste of money just to ride with them, and a waste of time too. Now I have a bicycle, so I guess I cannot have anymore excuses now.

Still, I have no complaint, a new bicycle is better than nothing. Maybe I will post some pictures once I get it.

My Term Deposit

After one year, my term deposit is up. And just how much I got back from a 200,000NTD annual deposit?

6,400NTD.

The bank asks me if I like to continue with another year, the interest rate is 0.77%.

Maybe I should bring my savings back to Australia.

Stupid Science Fiction Movie

I went to see this movie called Knowing, with Nicholas Cage. I wanted to see it because the preview trailer looked so good.

The movie turned out to be good, then really good, then really shit and finally the movie just go so shit I didn’t even take much note on what happened over the final 40 minutes.

To summarize this, I hate movies that involves people from outer space.

New Showroom

Not from our company, but from a prestigous car maker.

Bentley will open its first showroom in Taiwan, right next to our company! Not too sure why I am so excited, but it is not often when you see such expensive vechicles on the road, especially when they opened a showroom right next to where I work.

It seems poor economy doesn’t quite affect the riches I guess. Ferrari, Lamborghini, Bentley all have showroom in Neihu Technology Park now, what is to come next?
