Lunar New Year

Today is the celebration of the Lunar New Year - most commonly known as Chinese New Year since lunar calender is the fore-calender of the Chinese. Ushering this Year of the Boar, fortune is the main theme of this year. Thus, opportunity for financial success is what the people will thrive for this year. So to all celebrants of this festivity, I wish you all a prosperous new year. Gong Xi Fa Cai.

Now on a different issue. As I have mention, money is the central idea of the year and money had always been in my mind - especially at this moment. I had been given permission to take up some of my saving for expenditure. A sigh of relief, given that I need to make purchase of an external hard drive without any financial support from my parents. Well, it is my belonging anyway. Better squeeze out some cash from my own pocket. My parents promised to buy me a new watch (at last!!!) so I better not to sulk up about it. As for my financial status, I have no idea of my future stability in terms of savings. But I will work it out. So my plans for a new laptop this year probably needs a delay to next year. It's okay anyway. Full review of the newly inaugurated Windows Vista has not been released yet. That should take up a year to get done. I'll take that excuse for the delay.
