Controlling MY Addiction
To my friends and those that have been following my blog posts, you will know what my addiction is. Mobile phones and computers or rather laptops/netbooks. I now owned 4 mobile phones and a Dell Inspiron 14 laptop. I bought the laptop about 3 years ago, it’s now showing its wear and tear. I’ve been eyeing the Dell Inspiron Mini 10 for months, and now that it’s selling for RM999 at Dell Malaysia’s website, it’s beckoning to me more and more. Alas, I can just feel my new year’s resolution going down the drain. Arghhhh!!

I am planning to go for at least a vacation sometime this year, so at least that helps to keep my addiction in check. When I was with the previous company I worked for, I would have bought the netbook right away knowing that I was sure to get the bonus during Chinese New Year for at least a month’s pay. But now, only selected staff will get a bonus and I’m one of those new staff that might not get any at all. So, I’ll just save up for that since I don’t want to purchase anymore gadget with any of my credit cards. I am determine to clear off at least half of my debts by year end, and have none eventually. I am getting older, and I am aiming to live my life comfortably. I don’t want to live from paycheck to another anymore and one way to ensure that is of course, getting rid of my addiction for new gadgets 
Someday I hope I’ll be able to have financial freedom and by then, I could just get whatever gadgets that I want without having to suffer after that! LOL!
