there is a limit to everything

i'm still thinking about this post i wrote last year. the same person is still hounding me to sell off my current iBook to him. i'm so irritated at him. he's been calling and calling till i had no choice but to resort to ignoring his calls.
i can't afford to get a new toy right now. had a sudden surge in the bills & insurance payments to pay off. after making the payments i'm left with just enough liquidated cash for emergencies.
what makes me really irritated is a few things:
this person drives a beemer. yes, that's right. a freaking BMW.
owns a landed property.
has a sideline job.
just bought a few MP3 players (including an iPod).
now, he's forcing me to sell off my iBook, my baby, for $400. what can i get for $400? doesn't even cover half the price of the cheapest macBook. i have a long list of items i want to get, but i'm not going to get any of them cos those are only what i want. i don't really need them urgently. i can't afford to get any of it yet.
if that person doesn't want to talk to me anymore, i'm fine with that. i didn't do anything wrong. i don't lose anything from this. as somebody quoted : "go screw spider ah" (he didn't actually use the word screw. i replaced it). hahah...

i'm still here, in case you're wondering

i have not updated in a month and yet there are some people who actually bother to check this blog. for this, i thank you all, whoever you all are :)
wow, it's already almost halfway thru' Jan 07 already. i was too lazy to write that i missed doing what i normally do at the end of the year - that is to reflect on what happened. i don't do resolutions unless it is required. reason being, they never get done as planned. hehe...
well, it's still not to late to reflect since the Masihi year has not ended yet right. so here goes.
where 2005 has been a somewhat unproductive and forgettable year, i decided to get off my laurels and get it going in 2006. i pushed myself as far as i could go to see what i could achieve. i did a few stumbles and took a few falls, but that didn't deter me from finishing what i've started on. i did a few major detours in the path i was taking. i did something that i didn't think i could do, and did something that i thought i could do.
so now, i welcome the year 2007 with wide and open arms. this year will mark a new beginning. a year that i plan to do a few more major rehauling.
let's see what i can achieve this year. the year i will be leaving the life of a 20-something. i'm not afraid of getting old. bring it on baby. i'm living life as i want to, not as others want me to.
