Gotta get that soon, I'm reading Asimov's robot stories collection these days :)
And these three were quite random. I entered the bookshop, looked at the shelf... pff, why not :D I'll probably order I, Robot soon

edit: hah, nevermind, all of the stories from I, Robot are included in my collection :p called The Complete Robot for a reason it seems

That hand isn't mine, but it shows the size perfectly. It cost me €0,01 and €10,- per month for 500MB and some 3600kbps dl max, after 500 mb it will be like 128 kbps I think. It is a nice way to warm your hand, as it gets pretty hot while using. :)

I always kinda wanted watch, but I was quite unsure about the type, brand etc., but I finally ordered these. They look pretty luxurious imo, but they were for 125€, which is not so expensive. It is possible to get some not-so-good-loooking ones for cheaper price (like 50-80€), but I just wanted exactly this model (Casio Edifice EF-547D-1A1VEF).

If someone here has any deeper knowledge about watch, I would highly appreciate a comment about this purchase :) thx

Get Breitlings.
No, really, good choice imo, even there are not many watch-holder nowadays in the world of mobile phones, but still, it pays back when they last at least 5 years of no-problem service, then it´s good. My watch used to last year or two, which is insanely little. As well as no watchmakers in our town. So getting some help required travelling to nearest town..
Dunno how much do you use to go for a trips into nature, hiking etc., but I recommend you not to take them with you there, get some cheaper (5€) ones, cuz a friend of mine losts one every year in the forest.

Bought a flight ticket to London, going for a 2 week trip in summer with my bro. Sum: 319€

Alesis Q88 midi keyboard. It was hard to decide whether to get 61 or 88 keys version, but ended up with 88 and I'm glad I did. Also very many better touch in the keys than my previous keyboard <3

Looks like a good purchase! Definitely recommend 88 key always. Especially if you aren't 5 years old. Or a pop musician.

Thanks A.K.B.! The only reason I was thinking not getting a 88 is that it does not fit under my desk. But it is quite narrow so it fits nicely on top of the desk between my monitor and keyboard so is ok. And I am moving away from this tiny apartment anyways by the end of this year so it would've been stupid to not get a 88.

Bought an AC/DC TIG inverter!! \o/
My first own welding machine ever. Buying it for around 1000€ but found an offer for over 2k! So I might make a good deal here if the machine is working properly and for longer. It is 8 years old but proly cost around 4k back in the days.
I can weld aluminium with that thing! That's what the AC (alternating current) is for :beer:

Really looking forward to set that thing up and get started. Next thing to buy: welding helmet. But not an automatic one 8)
Sorry for the bigass pic.

I've been thinking about getting one of those as well, but dunno if I like the idea of reading on sach. I know for a fact that I prefer printed books, but still it's hard to ignore the benefits of e-books.

Also, about a minute ago I bought this:
