First and foremost, Merry X'mas and a Happy New Year. Not that I celebrate them. Alright, here's arguably the MOST important news of my life. On Boxing Day, 26th Dec 2006, I proposed to my girlfriend. Yup, I proposed to her while we were on the cable car. We took a cab from The Cathay (after watching Blood Diamond) up to Mount Faber. Then we took a cable car towards Sentosa. We just made a return trip to Harbourfront. I had butterflies in my stomach before I popped the question. Thank god she said yes. It was raining and the cable car stopped halfway through. It was...special. The wind was blowing, it's pretty romantic I guess.
And my New Year update, nothing special. In fact, I did nothing. I bought a new digital camera. Yup, I bought a Canon Powershot S3IS. Pretty good I think. It's a prosumer camera. Only 6 megapixels but that's more than enough for normal picture printings unless I want to blow it up to A3 size. With 12 x optical zoom (that's what caught my eye) + 4 x digital zoom and excellent functions e.g macro, digital stabilizer etc. I got it for $700. It's retailing at $799 at Canon stores. Bought it at Holland Village. Daniel (my classmate) said he could have got it for a better price through his mother in law but I don't feel good. Ya know, after all I don't even know her. Now, all I need is a decently good camera bag. I'll probably go to Carrefour to look for it. Anyway, term starts next week (8th Jan). Not really looking forward to it. My new timetable sucks bigtime. At least it's only going to be for 6 weeks before practicum. Oh well, I'll see how it goes.
Time to chill out now. Catch up later.
Regards,
RuDy
PS: I didn't update you on my last game on X'mas eve ya. We lost 2-1. Pretty good game. Pitch was lousy though. I got to play the holding role for 3/4 of the game. Another game coming up this weekend.
