Designed by Apple in California and assembled in China, Richard bought this Apple MacBook for me on his birthday. It is an all white 13-inch LED-backlit widescreen notebook and he got it for $1388, payable by monthly installments. The projected price was $1588, but we asked if it would be any cheaper if we do not want any freebies. Without mouse, bag and screen protector and we got the computer for a $200 lesser.
I had been looking at Apple computer not long ago. We went to different stores (pass by) to look at various notebooks. We even went to Jurong Point, but bought nothing. I think sometimes it is really fate that plays a part. On Richard’s birthday, we pass by Causeway Point. Richard said he wanted to go Courts to look at computer. Before we went to Courts, we were already stuck at the new shop, NuBox, the one where he had purchased this set of notebook for me. We spent a long time in the shop. The shop supervisor, Vincent was very friendly and showed me demonstrations on iMovie and iphoto. Ricsson viewed with enthusiasm as well. Soon, Richard decided to buy for me…. I felt so bad. I did not give him anything valuable on his birthday. Instead, he is spending more money on me… adding on to his debts…
One thing I like about this computer is its look. It is all white, so nice. I am still getting use to this computer. And another good thing is that I can easily type chinese character already — as you can see from my post Three Jewels at Peace Diary. Let me test type on Chinese. I had not done so for donkey years…
以前， 我做工使， 我自己有钱。现在我要看孩子，做家务， 看好家里的一切大大小小的是。我真的忙得很。一点娱乐也没有。可是如果看到孩子开心或叫我“妈妈”我绝得很感动。
如今， 我的钱以花得七七八八。我也一身债。。。欠人情债，也欠保显公司的债。以前，$1388/$1588 的东西， 我都一次过换清。。。如今。。。我觉得很惭愧。。。要让我的老公在他身日那天买萍果电脑给我。。。很感激我的老公。感谢天主耶稣！
