New Year's Wants.

I want to...

...be able to drive around in a car that i've spent tons of money on without fear of being stopped by cops for 'illegal modifications'.

...buy myself a Mitsubishi Colt Version-R if i can actually find a one in KL. or Malaysia.

...have enough money to feed my manga & magazines addiction.

...get back into designing. Sandwich making is awesome, but you can't beat art & design.

...design wallpapers & icons for computers and gadgets, eg. the Playstation Portable or the iPod Touch/iPhone.

...buy more legit CDs to fill up my iTunes. Or maybe just buy songs off iTunes.

...get a Macbook Pro to get back into design. Nope, not liking the Macbook Air.

...get a bigger desk to fit my PC, the coming Macbook, and a 37" LCD TV. And the Xbox360.

...get a 37" LCD TV.

...get back on XBOX LIVE so i can play Burnout Paradise with the rest of the Lowyat.Net goons.

...have good pings so i can play World of Warcraft. Again.

...get better Pangya rates (I'm on 60% now. NEED MORE CONTROL POINTS).

...give more love to my PSP and DS.

...play the guitar again.

...fix my baby Stratocaster.

...go out to studios and jam.

...have better blog traffic.

...blog more so I can have better blog traffic.

And ultimately...

...get married and live a happy-ever-after with the Blisskat.

...open another Subway store or two. Looking for great locations. Suggestions welcomed!

...go to Japan with the Blisskat just to shut Ikin up. And blow all my Subway money at Akiba.
