Finally, after much consideration, i bought my first e-book reading device.

So much thinking and deciding while others are rushing for iPhones and iPad.

And I ended buying iRiver Story.

Why not iPad?

Too much for plain reading, way past my budget.

Why not Amazon Kindle?

Actually, Kindle is cheaper, even after shipping fees. But the major drawback is that it only supports Kindle and PDF formats, and there is no local warranty.

So far so good.

Now, I can finally put all my finance, technology and story books together and carry them with me. Next up: figuring how to use National Library's e-resources to extend my collection.

6 weeks into work and it's the start of 7th week tomorrow.

Feeling? challenged absolutely.

I wouldn't think myself a fresh graduate, shirking responsibility.

I enjoy being ambitious, absorbing and learning all the time.

Programming, finance, people skills, etc.

I'm adapting to the pace and environment.

Knee deep in code.

Weekdays pass in a blink.

Weekends too.

I like Friday evenings.

I make it a point to dine and catch up with friends.

Friday is a "how're you doing?" day.

If we haven't yet met, please let me know :)

Tentative projections/plans:

- Start a long term investment

- achieve CFA level 1 by next year June

- Get a ebook reader (damn, why doesn't Amazon ship Kindles/ Kindle content to Singapore?)

- Ceteris Paribus, stay frugal !
