That cost me an arm and a leg

(No, I won’t go Edward Elric of Full Metal Alchemist on you)

I am not your average kind of girl. When I say retail therapy, I don’t run out and buy new clothes, shoes and make up. Hell, I think the last time I shopped for clothes was around September last year. And that’s because I needed them.

When I go out for retail therapy, I splurge on office supplies. Seriously. Papers, desktop accessories, pens, and more papers. But recently, I have diverted my shopping spree to buy “investments” for my personal goal. (As I have said in a previous entry).

I spent most of my money on technology the past 2 weeks alone:

  • Bought new and additional RAM for Blue.
  • Also bought DVD-R Drive for Blue
  • Subsrcibed to DSL
  • Bought new speakers (also for my sister who doesn’t like using earphones)
  • Bought a headset (also for all those international calls by my mom hehehe)
  • Got a wireless router

Wait, why do I need a router when I only have 1 PC at home? A wireless router at that?

That’s because since Sunday, I have been staring every night at the most expensive thing I have bought, ever.

No, ladies and gentlemen, that is not a windows theme + add-ons. It’s the real deal.

I am now a proud owner of a black Macbook (120 GB).

I named her Ai, after Enma Ai of Jigoku Shoujo . It is one of the investments I made if I really really plan on pursuing this. I was supposed to get one later this June, but there was a credit card promo and we had to take advantage of it.

I know someone who is staring at this entry and fuming because I haven’t paid her yet.1

I have been busy setting this baby up since Sunday night so I can start working on it already (with all the deadlines and all). And yes, I posted this entry just so I can go squealing and tell the world that I now have a Macbook.

Hey, those are investments. Sus, now yer more streamlined so can do more werk! Werk that’d earn you millions. Then you’d look back and say, “Hey, I didn’t splurge, I invested. And I’m rich, so f*ck off.” Hehehe.
