I'm talking about America..
I don't know about you guys, but I feel that way..
It's great to be here, but sadly I'll be leaving the US next week :(

I have never thought that I can buy a notebook using my own money, not my parent's, although theres nothing wrong with that..

picture this.. your salary is $200 a month (after you graduate but sometimes like most of my friends their salary are around $60 to $100) and you need to buy a $1500 notebook, that means you gotta save your money for 7 months.

and after work I'll go straight to best buy to buy my first notebook.. :) I'm so happy :)

You're making $200 a month after graduating from college? You can make more than that working at minimum wage for 20 hours a week with a 100% income tax. I think you should think about switching jobs.

Dude, I make $400 a week working at McDonalds. Where the heck do you work? where do you live?!

something musta got lost in the translation -

Sounds like maybe (he) is refering to what would be the case wherever it is (he) is from (???) and is thankful that he can easily save for/get one here...

yaThink ?,..
...O'wise this makes no sense whatsoever...

err sorry for this confusion

it's back in my country where people only get around $200 for a month salary.. well it depends tho.. but so far all my friends have a salary below $100 a month and they all have bachelor degrees.

oh btw I just got Toshiba S255.. oooohhh I love it so much :) in fact I'm using my Toshiba right now :)
