As a kid I never had enough pocket
money to buy the many things I've wanted (not to say that my
parents won't buy them for me if I'd asked, just that it's not
my style to ask... I'm such a good boy ^_^ or perhaps a coward?
haha...), so once I had enough savings through my part time
jobs in NUS, I spent first and foremost on the things I have
always loved - electronic gadgets (aka toys). In a small way
I am living my childhood dream, eventhough there are still
many things I can't afford right now. Anyway, below are a list
of the toys I currently possessed, a modest list so far but it'll
grow as my purchasing power grows. Cheers~
Toy List:

Wish List:
- A new handphone to replace my old, faithful
Nokia 6610, perhaps the sleek Nokia
6680.
- A new set of speakers for elfstone, haven't
decided on which model yet.
- A set of Sennheiser
wireless hi-fi headphones.
- Upgrade elfstone to version 3, perhaps with
an Athlon 64 on an nforce4 chipset.
- A 17" or 19" LCD monitor, when LCD
technology matures more.
- Microsoft's Optical
Desktop Comfort Edition.
- A 1GB SD card for my camera and PPC.
- A good Canon digital SLR with some proper lenses.
- A freakin' car!! The Tuscani looks good and
affordable, well, affordable in a few years' time perhaps =)
