Short note for the day

Sad shit happened:
- Received a buy 1 get 1 free coupon for the Vancouver Symphony Ochestra yesterday but I’ve already paid 2 tickets for their show 2 weeks ago (for the Final Fantasy music show). Total lost: $65
- Royalbank charged me a VISA fee of $120 while they promised that my fee’s waived. Had to downgrade my Platinum card to a standard one. They really suck.

Happy things happened:
- Bought two pack-of-four bottle juice for $1.47 each at T&T. Total gain: ~ $3
- Bought two boxes of 老婆餅 at T&T, my favorite ones. They don’t always have them.

Lightbulbs suck

GU10 energy saving bulb - sucksp9GU10 energy saving bulb - sucksSo two of the halogen bulbs burnt out and I went to Canadian Tire yesterday to get some replacements. I saw these $17.99 (pack of 2) bulbs that claimed to use only 7W of energy to produce a 35W output. I bought into it and thought to give them a try. They turned out to be SO DIM, and the beam pattern was so spread out, which apparently didn’t suit my needs. I quickly returned them this afternoon, and grabbed the regular ones that I used to get.

GU10 bulb - broken and brand newWhen I was trying to install these new sets of bulbs, the suction cup came loose (I usually use suction cup to install them so that grease from my hand won’t get onto the glass surface of the bulb which can shorten its life), and the bulb fell from almost near the ceiling onto my glass desk….it broke and a brand new bulb was gone! It sucked! $4.X was gone :( I hate it so much when things like this happen, where my hard earned money goes straight into the sewer…
