2013 is not starting well for Alvinology

Pardon the irregular updates recently.

This has not been a good year for me so far.

First, I got a letter of demand from a lawyer acting on behalf of a Ms. Cecilia Sue.

I then found out I have misplaced a card case which contains my NRIC and a freshly topped up Ezlink card among a slew of other cards. That is at least S$350 down the drain…

I lost my wallet last week, but I managed to get it back.

Yesterday, someone stole my iPhone 4S which I had bought and used for barely a year. A brand new iPhone 4S or 5 without contract is going to set me back by at least S$788.

Maybe I should take this opportunity to try using another phone brand. Any kind sponsor out there?

I hope I will have better luck after ushering in the Lunar Chinese New Year.

Gong Xi Fa Cai.

  • Hi Alvin,
    Well, at least (I think) you travelled around the world many times last year and managed to spend some quality time with your little one during the trip too - you take plane more than we take taxi last year !!

    re phones, Try Samsung! I don't think the NOTE II needs any introduction. Or If you want something BIGGER (haha Note II already quite Big), wait for Note 8, gonna be unveiled this month (Feb 2013) - its actually a tablet, smaller version of the Note10.1, but it should work as a phone too

    Maybe "Dragon Tail" (end of Dragon Year - ie. beginning of 2013) your fortune not so good, but may the coming Lunar Chinese New Year bring you Good Luck and Fortune again!!

    Huat Ah !!!!!!!!

    • Thanks bro. :) Appreciate the encouraging words!
