			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have given some thoughts lately and I realized that there are 2 types of gadget purchaser.</p>
<p>1. I will buy this and use it til it breaks<br />
2. I will buy this even the current one I have is still relatively new</p>
<p>I find I&#8217;m always in between these 2 types of purchasing habits.  I have a relatively new cell phone and I&#8217;m already thinking of purchasing another one.  Though the current phone I own is more superior&#8230;  I guess I&#8217;m just trying to convince myself to keep myself up to date with what I like o_o this is such a bad hobbie~</p>

<p>So it&#8217;s been a week with the new car.  All is well.  There&#8217;s still some adjusting to it since coming from a big car now everything is nice and small.  One thing that&#8217;s not so small in this car is the power.  I was so used to drive rear-wheel drive cars, this is definitely different, all the power is in the front!  I love my new car, no doubt about it.</p>
<p>Haven&#8217;t written much on my blog lately, I&#8217;m getting really lazy or perhaps I just got so much to do these days.  Work is increasing workload and at the same time I gotta do my studying as well.  AND at the same time need to figure out what to do with my newly wanted new home&#8230; Me brain no like busy thoughts.. o_o</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>These two days are very bleh for me.  Nothing feels right and nothing really goes my way.</p>
<p>Last night met up with the instructors and students from the project management class, people are nice and jolly.  I think I will start to spend time reading that new textbook.  The textbook title is Fundamental of Organizational Behavior.  For some reason this book sounds very familiar, perhaps I have studied something similar before when I was still an undergrad.  Maybe&#8230; memory isn&#8217;t so good these days.</p>
<p>Another thing is I&#8217;m trying to buy a car, but dealer is not doing such a good job at keep it up with me.  After the order went through the agent had claimed there are 3 vehicles left with the trims that meets my requirement.  So I was happy.  But a few days had gone by and received a call from him saying 1 of the 3 is damaged by hale storm.  The other 2 were showroom cars and have been driven for roughly 2500km.  I wasn&#8217;t pleased, I could have pulled the deal right there but I like the car so much I couldn&#8217;t resist letting go.  Now the only option left for me is to wait until Oct 10th for a new 2008 model.  God, I knew this kind of thing will happen, surprises are the only concerns I had when i signed the vehicle purchase agreement.</p>
<p>Which car is it, you might ask??  Let&#8217;s wait until October and we&#8217;ll see pics. <img src='http://life.eggchen.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  All I can say is one word: FAST.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today marks the first weekday of September 07.  People goes back to school and some people go back to work.  I&#8217;m glad I&#8217;m more on the latter piece.  However I&#8217;ve also signed up to a new project management course; Skills Development.  I was reading up course description, I could tell this is going to be a boring one&#8230; o_o good god (not that I&#8217;m religious or anything)</p>
<p>Over the weekend spent few hundred dollars on signing up to the course and purchased a HD-DVD drive that goes along with my xbox360.  I must say I&#8217;m very impressed with the quality of this HD-DVD player.  Too bad I only hooked up the the system to my computer monitor so it&#8217;s not true 1080P.  In time I will get a true hi-def tv&#8230; when I have a house <img src='http://life.eggchen.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Another note on housing.  The houses that are for sale right now is way too pricey it&#8217;s ridiculous.  Less than 7 years the housing market had dramatically increased at least 35%.  Young people like us whom are on the market shopping for a new home can only afford something smaller&#8230;. much smaller.  A bachelor size unit perhaps? o_o noooooooo&#8230;&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So yesterday early in the morning marked the 5th time going back to Midas to fix my squeaky brakes.  The day before I drove him and hoping they could fix it but by the time they looked at the car even I could no longer hear the noise.  This really irritates me as if I&#8217;m a &#8220;fat&#8221; liar.  But the mechanic was nice enough to offer an alternative solution.  I was told to bring the car in the next morning and he will have his grinder ready.</p>
<p>The purpose of the grinder is to smooth out the rotor surface, though it was new the grinder could smooth out any bumps that might have been there since the replacement.  It&#8217;s been 1 day now I haven&#8217;t heard any noise, I hope this sustains because I&#8217;m tired of going back to the auto shop.</p>
