Jocose and Sassy: My "will get" list this December

December 12, 2008

Yup, you read that right.  I WILL get them, not just wish for them.  That’s because if I really want something, if the price is reasonable, I’ll definitely get it.  I wouldn’t call this list a “wish list” because it will depress if I see something I want but won’t get.

People call it “impulse buying,” but I call it “SSS” (Satisfying the Splurge Sometimes).  In my POV, It’s good to splurge sometimes.  Not only will you get satisfaction from buying the item/s you want, but you’ll also feel good because you gave yourself something as a reward from all the hard work you’ve been doing for the past 12 months as well.  Besides, it’s the time where people’ll get their 13th month pay and if they’re lucky, they also get bonuses (In our company, however, I doubt we’ll have) so go ahead! SPLURRRRGGEEEE! :D

Aherm…so without further ado, here’s my “will get” list:

 

1.  A brand new desktop computer

  

Getting ready for Blizzard’s Diablo 3 game, so I’m getting a new PC with these specs:

Processor        Intel Q8200 Quadcore 2.33Ghz  

Motherboard    MSI P6N SLI        

Memory             Transcend DDR2800 2GB x2        

Harddrive         Seagate Barracuda 500GB Sata        

Optical Drive    LG 22x Sata Lighscribe DVDRW        

Monitor              Viewsonic 16″ LCD        

Speakers         Edifier M1350        

Video Card      Inno3d 8600GT 1GB SLI Ready x2   

 

2.  Metal Gear Solid 4 for the PS3

It’s been out for a while so the price is cheaper now.  Whoever said “strike while the iron is hot” was wrong about his/her theory.  haha

 

That’s pretty much it.  I’m not a very materialistic person so I keep my “wants” list low.  Not that I’m saying people who post a lot on their list are materialistic.  I guess I’m just a guy who likes to keep things real.  

 

 Chill (o.o) b
