I haven’t been very tech-savvy for a while. I mean, yeah sure I have new gadgets but a few years back, I used to switch from phone to phone like how often my maid would change the bedsheets (and it’s very often). I got quite bored I suppose, when phones got more and more identical. Just a few days ago while at a coffeeshop I told myself, the next phone I get should be is like one of those touch screen gadgets.. In my mind I had a O2/blackberry thing going on.

The G900 (above ^) is a pretty sweet looking thing with 5.0 megapixels of quality as its camera and a touch-screen. I’m pretty shocked at its retail price - not even BND700 - but I suppose it’s for those who really have size as an issue as well. While the phone has a lineup of great functions, I personally would have preferred it if it had a wider screen (it’s quite long already) and a QWERTY keyboard (Haha I like typing that word, QWERTY, ’cause I can just slide my fingers over it like I’m on the piano). I haven’t tried it out, for fear I’d be disappointed with the interface. I have issues with how phones look like on the inside; how the menus are, whether the colours on the inside match the phone itself (my W580i has dark and cool themes but my phone is white!) but I’ve checked out some videos online already.

Unfortunately, folks, our breaths are yet to be taken away.
The XPERIA X1 my friends, is the real deal.

I went to watch two very awesome movies today :) A day well spent! Ya’ll should catch Kung Fu Panda (FTW! Don’t even compromise if you’re a real cartoon/comedy lover) and Get Smart like what a friend and I did today. It was the bomb diggity HAHAHA since when do I talk like that :S A day well spent indeed!

I saw Winnie there too! It was the first time I ever talked to her and coincidentally she was sitting at the same row and I was, while watching KFP. Haha we had a funny conversation :P

I haven’t watched movies in like, ages really. I think the last flick I caught in the cinema was Alvin and the Chipmunks and that was like, last year? Heh? How pathetic. What have I been busy with all this time? But the 2weeks break are making up for it! Hopefully I’m going to be able to go to KK this weekend or next week. Air Supply is going to have a concert there live, and my mum wants to go. My mum ah. Haha.

My mum is super adorable lo. She had a minor operation last Thursday - she’s fine now - and it was her first I think so she wasn’t sure how the procedure had to go and stuff. She had to remove her dentures (THE FUNNIEST LOL), her nail polish from her toenails and remove all her makeup. She didn’t really like the fact she had to go without her makeup on because she wanted to look gorgeous during the operation -_- that’s my mom. Lawlz.

They placed her dentures in this:

(Sorry my pictures differ in size. The more horizontal ones are huge when they are uploaded in “full size” where as the more vertical ones are just the right fit. If you didn’t understand anything I just said, forget it.)

She was still quite drowsy after the operation; she had no idea what happened, couldn’t even remember the doctor who operated on her. Haha. And she was mumbling stuff while she was half awake or asleep; asking me to take out the makeup and put lipstick on her, msg her friends to say that she’s fine, etc, asking for food haha! Love my mom lah she’s so adorable at times. I also saw Carrie Wong there too! Do you know, it actually kinda scared me why she was there. I wasn’t sure if that was her or not. Then I asked the nurse who was there ’cause I wasn’t sure yet then found it was a dental thing than I was like phewwww relief HAHAHA she saw me I think, she looked really drowsy hahaha!! Like her eyes half opened and I wanted to say hi, but I was scared HAHAHA SORRY! Funny lah, but hope your tooth is fine already woman! :D

Stuff I want to buy if I do go to KK:-

1) Camera lens (doubt my mom would splurge this on me)
2) Shoes!
3) Vaio Pouch for my Notebook
4) Red Razor Pro Click 1.6 mouse :) yes I am aware that I do not game but that’s one really cute mouse.
5) Lots of clothes. And shorts.
6) MAC Shadestick…
7) Altec Lansing speakers!

Hmm that’s all I can think of right now.

It’s past midnight and I got stuff to do tomorrow morning. I miss you Block 5 PS people alot! Since Clement left we haven’t been as ‘whole’ as we used to be. Since we can’t do tomorrow night hopefully we can sometime during the holidays. Unfortunately we are excellent are procrastination.

Goodnight :)

I had a wonderful weekend with my friends and going to church :) Although it was really tiring, it was all for GOOD! This spells the start of commitment… Right Y? Hehehe. *hehehehehe* –> this was really annoying (ahem!). Anyway, I took my camera out until there was no space left in my cam. So here you go!

Pictures! I was going through photoblogs the whole of yesterday afternoon, and I got inspired! Especially the pictures from you know.. local Bruneians/people who live in Brunei. Anyway, I went out yesterday for Coffeebean and Pizza Hut with some cool and lame people :) Enjoy! These are not professional photos, so if you are looking for pro shots, this is the wrongggg place :P All these are n00b!

Not exactly great specifications but hey, it’s gorgeous.

“Keyboardists”

What I miss most about Singapore is the convenience and the food.

I think this is called Tako Pachi.

Alex eating at a foodcourt, I forgot its name.

I emailed SMU about 3 days ago before I left for Miri about an enquiry I had regarding the entry requirements. I couldn’t find the information I needed, so I sent an e-mail, thinking that it was the most appropriate thing to do. Thankfully, the person who I replied was quite helpful and this is part of what she said:

There is no fixed minimum grade as it depends on the competitive standards of the applicants for the year. SMU takes a holistic approach in its selection process, therefore we will look at your submission as a whole.

I quickly googled the word holistic then was redirected to Wikipedia which had many different terms in use of this word. I understood it, and I realized that why of course this is relevant and plausible, it’s Singapore! And as well as one of the top private universities in that country, in the heart of Raffles City. It did scare me quite a fair bit and I was feeling a bit apprehensive before I calmed down. I’m in the midst of my first year exams and I’ll be sitting for my mocks in a few months time. It’s the very exam of which my tutors will use to predict my grades that I will be sending off to university for. Very, very crucial, no joke, no kidding, no fooling around.

Perhaps that is what’s been in my mind the most these last few days.

On a lighter note, I managed to go for my swim while I was in Miri :D I finally could unwind from all that I needed unwinding from and have a jolly good time with my friends. I loved the pillows and really wished I could take it home :P 8 girls were squished into a room but it was still all good. Don’t mind the funny English I’m typing with, I have an English exam to do next week before I’m finally done with my exams for good! (well at least until my next exam that is).

Here I’ll end with a stupid joke from Aaron.

One day, a Char Siew Pao (pork bun) and a Tao Sa Pao (black bean bun) were in an oven, getting cooked. They saw from outside a hand was slowly opening the oven to grab one of the paos/buns. Suddenly, the Tao Sa Pao exclaimed, “OMG we’re going to be eaten up!” Then the Char Siew Pao said…

“OMG A TALKING PAO!“

I know many people have heard this in various forms, but heck, it’s really stupid/lame so it’s going to take the place of my picture-less post. I didn’t bring my Canon thinking it would be too much to carry :(

Good night and sleep tight everyone!

Oh, and how did you like my new header? HAHAHA.
[edit] I have a picture!

Lol - red team for Telematch 2008!
