Day 4: Fingers crossed

All excited. Fingers crossed. Tomorrow is day when my Athena arrives. Goddess of intelligence, skill, strategy; my portal to the wide wide world. After months of relentless searching, re-searching, asking opinions, changing options, I finally decided on a laptop. My own laptop. Samsung Ultrabook. I have been wanting a laptop for more than a year. Finally, I have enough money to get one. And strike off one item from my wishlist. :D(Striking off is more exciting). Its always a moment of pride when you buy something from your hard earned money.

Its been 3 years since I started working, and every time I make an invest in a gadget, there is this shiver down my spine. When the first time 15000 was swiped from my card for my point and shoot camera, I felt my blood drain with it. :D My mother always used to say, "You will know the value of hard earned money only when you start earning" , and yes, as always, your mother is always right. :)

Tomorrow I make the payment and bring her home. :) And yes, even though it was a exhausting day, I feel good. Its always good to look forward to the arrival of something or someone.

 This year is a year of parting with most of my close and loved friends moving to different places. Goodbyes are always harder. With two years of absolute fun, hanging out, night outs, partying, time had come when we all had to go in separate ways. But we always look forward to the "next time". Today was one of the days when my best friend (yeah seven years maketh a best friend) told me that he's gonna be in town on Sept 29th. I nearly squealed out aloud when I saw the message. :D 

I have a something and a someone to look forward to!! :D
