My new desktop

I'm finally going to retire my HP desktop that's 5 years of age. One of the many benefits from working at Rio Tinto is the corporate discounts you get. In this case, I think I will be able to get a 5-10% discount from Dell. Mining is such a huge industry in Western Australia now. Just this week in class, we were discussing the wage explosion in the mining industry, people earning 6 figures working on sites, it's unbelievable. But they figure the resources might get depleted in 15 years' time and the mining boom might be over then. Just like how the IT industry was booming once and it has slowed down since. I'm definitely going to make the most of my career in the next 10 years within the industry and see where that takes me. Hopefully after completing my Masters and CPA qualification and the work experience I accumulated in Australia, it will wind me with a great job in Singapore. But if that doesn't happen, I guess I am destined to live in Perth. So anyway, I'm excited about the new desktop I'm getting. Woo hoo! I'm finally going to get a 19" flat panel LCD monitor! I know in this day and age, who still has the bulky CRT monitor? I do and I'm getting rid of it and I'm happy! :)
