| IT Talk |
The Week has been going on great, 10th Month, Church and what nots.
Oh, Guess what. I totally forgot about the Bintan trip tml. Blessy told me it's tml and I didn't even know about it! I totally forgot that today's the 28th and tml would be the 29th. How retarded I am. This shows how prepared I am for the trip! haha.
If you are wondering why I am not packing and I'm still blogging, that's because I'm currently facing a crisis. I've a few choices to make. Choices that would change my life (for while) Please give your 2 cents worth with regards to my choices. OMG Here I go.
Laptops
I've a few options. I heard Fujitisu aint that great (because M is using it and I've heard wayyy too many stories about it) M takes pretty good care of his laptop and still it fails on him. I heard that toshiba ain't that user friendly and stuff. T says HP aint that great either, and so is Dell. However I've heard that Dell has great technical support. I would love a MAC book, but I fear that it ain't that user friendly (Rah tells me that Mac is the greatest thing on earth) However, I am not sure if Im a MAC user kinda shiat. I mean, I can get used to it, but it's gonna be freaking hard to get help in Aussie. Tsk. WTF am I suppose to do?
According to Retrevo, they say that Sony Vivo is the best Laptop. But dude, it cost a bomb yo! Its way out of my budget! And my budget is like 2000 bucks. A Vivo is about 3K man. Woah.
I guess, I'm still settling between IBM/HP/MAC.
Now for the next category of distress.
Handphones - Sony Ericsson Vs Samsung
I am sick and tired of Nokia. I've been using Nokia since secondary 1 and I feel it's time for a change! I'm using a small samsung phone as my second line and I like it. Samsung feels durable and what not. But I have yet to give Sony Ericsson a try! T has really bad experiences with Sony and she told me not to get it. M told me that Suet was facing problems with her sony. I'm super confused. Isabelle who was working for Samsung also told me that Sony would make a better choice. Based on a few reports, this is what I've gathered.
Sony Ericsson have edged past Samsung to become the third largest handset manufacturer in the UK, the two companies are locked in a fierce battle to take the title, according to sources. The number one UK manufacturer currently being Nokia and in second place Motorola. Could Sony Ericsson’s success leapfrog them to steal Motorola’s second place?

So Now i'm freaking confused. I cant really choose a samsung phone to buy. But these are the sony ericsson phones I'm considering right now.
 Sony Ercisson 850i
I've felt the phone, played around with it. One thing that seriously bothers me is the freaking touch screen. I can try to work around the touch screen and all, but OMG I'll get annoyed by it. It's the only Sony Ericsson phone that has a 5 Mega Pixel Cyber Shot Camera! Why is God so unfair! haha. Oh well, here are the other reviews I read on Ciao.Co.Uk
Comment No.1:
Advantages: Sleek and attractive design.
Disadvantages: Poor 5 MP camera and haphazard 'touch buttons'.
My Sony Ericsson K800i had served me well for the past 16 months, but recently I felt it was time for a change. It's general functionality, coupled with the standard of the camera, was becoming obsolete in the current mobile phone market, so I went on the hunt for a new phone. Importantly, the feature I require most on a phone is a decent camera. Although I own a digital SLR - I like having a decent phone to take pictures of my family and of intriguing ...
...N95, until I noticed the Sony Ericsson K850i on display as a live phone, and thought 'Wow!'. The K850i is the latest in the K series, taking over from the K800i/K810i, and it includes the 5 MP camera and high speed 3G. Having owned two of it's predecessors, which never let me down, in conjunction with it looking fantastic, I decided to purchase it on Pay As You Go - which is what this review will concentrate on. Design ++++++
Comment No.2:
Advantages: Cool, easy to use, amazing camera, good media player, funky features
Disadvantages: Expensive on pay and go, attracts fingerprints something chronic!
...I should point out that Sony have added a "fingerprint attraction" feature, so fingerprints just fly straight towards the phone and take up a semi permanent residence there. If vanity bothers you that much, be prepared to carry a cloth around with you to clean it! About the title of this section - it is a bit of a brick. For me this isn't a bad thing, as I like to know when I'm holding the phone, or that it won't fall out of my pocket as I'm walking ...
...wheel look quite funny). Sony have solved the problem by making the buttons quite small, but placing them a fair distance apart. Vertically they are spaced 0.5cm apart, and horizontally they are 1cm apart. It does slow texting down slightly, but I rarely make mistakes. In fact seeing as I never have to go back to correct the "mashing the keypad" effect of closely packed buttons, I probably get a text finished quicker. Navigation is achieved using ..
 Sony Ericsson 810i
My second option would be Sony Ericsson 810i However, I'm not loving the joy stick! Grrr I'm such a fussy phone-buyer! haha. This phone has a 3.2 Mega Pixel function and its buttons are...relatively interesting looking. Not my favourite, but interesting I must say. I think buttons should be easier to get used to then Touch screen.
OH GOODNESS SOMEONE PLEASE DECIDE FOR ME! :(
And I have to say this! But i would really wanna get a DSLR Camera real soon! haha. I have to save $$, for real. But who am I kidding, at the rate I'm spending my cash, I would get a DSLR when I'm in my grave.
 baby, I'll get you one day, ONE DAY.
Oh damn it. I've so much to consider. I've to get my laptop and phone ready before going to Australia. I hope June's IT fair would help me decide. It's gonna be at the Expo from the 12th June to the 15th June :D
Anyway, back on Sunday with images to share with you all. Till then, if you can help me decide on what the fuck I should buy, please help. I'm rotting.

| PDA = Not Palm Top |
Good afternoon darling buns. :) I'm here typing at 2pm, on a Monday! Alright it's not the usual timing that I blog, but I'm very sorry! it's because I fell asleep on the floor last night! Right, I'm such a boob and I love to sleep on the floor. But let me tell you something, it runs in the family. My whole family (Except mother) lovessssssss to sleep on the cold hard floor. you should try it some time, its liberating. :)
Anyway, I've to blog about something very serious.
Recently I've noticed an increasing number of Singaporeans showing PDA. PDA you say, Palm top? no no no my friend. It's called Public Display of Affection. I can't understand why can't they keep their hands to themselves on the trains, on buses or even in the shopping malls?! Yes, I know I'm in an open relationship right now, however, I can't see myself smooooching around with anyone while waiting for the train in front of 20 strangers.
That day at City Hall, I was waiting for the train and this girl just couldn't keep her hands off her boyfriend and she consistently keep giving kisses on her boyfriend's lips. And eventually frenching in the middle of no where. Now I understood why the boy wore sunglasses. I would. That is just totally embarrassing. Everyone was staring at them. Everyone was staring at them because everyone was facing the reflective door, so we could catch the action but be discreet about it.
Just that day, I was walking in marina square alone and I saw this couple hugging and smooching at the railing near Anderson's ice cream. I thought ok fine, Walk as fast as you can jillian. When I went around Marina Sq for 30 mins, and I ended up at the same spot. Guess what? Those two were Still standing there hugging and smooching!
Like hello people, God created bedrooms for a reason. God created men to build Hotels for a reason. Use it please. What's with the PDA. Hugging once or twice is fine. A peck on the cheek or lips is fine. But frenching and being stationary and being a hindrance to the human traffic is just being annoying.
Enough of that, Now i shall update you about the exciting week I had!
Monday
Vesak Day meant a holiday for us, and a special day for others! For me, it meant heading out with my sister and bringing her out! :) Plus of course with my best friend! :) We head over to Ikea to shop around and what not :) I love these two girls of mine.
 Look at bf and her shopping-ness  haha, I love crabs  Charms say this is the puppet's thinking face, and thus sister bought it for her! haha After which, we Headed down to downtown for Dins!  Ti Amor!  Alright, I look pro and retarded and I love my bf!  Yup that's her alright!  Her Appetitizer!  The full course for us all!  I love this!  Sister's dessert!
Drove over to compass point to grab pocky for my sister's crazy collection! some day I'll feature her collection. It is obsessive! haha. :) Anyway, M rode down and we hung at my house for a while. Sister needed to study so the 3 of us went out for prata :)
 Ok the roti john was filled with Flowers! (haha, that indian spice thing)  Flowers.
Tuesday
The day before, M and T came over to our place and noticed that Gabby was limping away like a hotdog and Daddy said It would be great if I can bring Gabby to the Vet! So i thought might as well! But, on Tuesday, When I went down, Gabby was already running around like some mad dog and barking away! So I guess he didn't need to go to the vet after all. He's such a attention seeking dog! (haha I typed dog as dong and couldnt stop laughing!)
M and I had a huge argument and I was super angry with him. Bf called me at the right time and I ranted. So we met for Dinner :) I love my Bf, What am I going to do in Australia without her. I am going to tear right now :(
 Sushi Tei with the Bf  And she's exploring her options  Ok she knows what she wants!  Glorious food!  I love toufu!  She loves chicken? haha.
M wanted to meet and talk about our shitty misunderstanding and he was being a big cunt at that time I had no choice. :(
 The Beach with Bf before I left to meet M :)
M and I talked, screamed, yelled and punched. But everything was resolved.
PS: M, I'm sorry for making you feel insecure. No one ever feels secured with me, you know that right?
Wednesday
I can't remember what happened on Wed. Oh! I bought loafers for Daddykins! cause he bought boots instead of loafers and he got conned. haha. Funniest. Now daddy is loving his new loafers man! :) Jessica M and T , we all met up at Tm to buy the loafers and hung around in the East! We went to white sands HK cafe and just talked :)
No visuals on that, but I got lomo shots! haha. I need a scanner! OMG. Who has a scanner to lend me?
 Lomo  Lomo 2  I need a scanner  If i scanned this, it would be nicer  M  Shims, Kx, and Ivy  Shots
Thursday
Thursday was running around Singapore day for me! haha. I went to meet Daddy to settle my IDP thing, he passed me the bank Draft and his car. :) I ran over to IDP to settle the admin stuff for my eCOE and ran over to PS to meet Yum :) Drove over to Pico art together to meet Tanya! and to end off my contract at Pico as well :D So the 3 lil punktards went over to fetch Rah! Rah was at work and we wanted to pick her up at her work place. But her work place was so desserted and it was jammed crazy, we had a hard time looking for her place. And what's worse was her HP battery went flat!
When we arrived at her office, we couldn't find her! she was gone! We thought omg we are going to die and be late for our movie! But thankfully she called us when she was atAljunid! haha :) that Peg! We laughed about that matter and just joked all the way to daddy's office! To return daddy his car! We asked if daddy could fetch us over to Downtown! haha. :) So he did and on the way, picked Sister up! T and I updated Rah and Yum about the madness and what not and we had a good time just talking and laughing.
It's just super heart warming to still be able to create and generate cold jokes with yum and probably jokes that only both of us understand. I love the feeling of just laughing with Rah about the sillest things she says and T, I love T so much. She's my pillar. :) I'll miss the Punktards when I leave :(
Anyway, Daddy was kind enough to lend me the car when we arrived home, and I drove over to Downtown east! :D It was Dinner and Movie Time!
 Rah! After much persuasion!  I love rah! I'll miss this babe!  IRON MAN! Finally Bf and I caught this show! Well, it's not as good as everyone claimed but It's a relatively good show! It's not that typical and I've to say the effects are really good Rated: 4/5 12mn, it was time to go back!  Bf and I lepaking in the car  haha :D Same Top! Same Outfit! :)  Love love  By now you should realise we're wearing the same outfit.  Mug shots  What the fuck am i doing  Home in Odessey.

Graduation day! The day I woke up early, to wear my formal top and formal pants. I felt as though I was entering a new phase of my life. I will be going to start work, (ok I've been working) I will be going to old, I will be having my own apartment soon. Graduation is like a stop over for me, to realize that this section of my life is over, and I would need to get ready for the next. :)

Benson Blessy M and I sat at macs and updated each other about the latest and talked till we couldnt talk no more :) 4pm we all went our seperate ways. M and I went over to his place to catch my favourite show! Tong Xing Yuan (ok I'm such a loser) After which, I did up a report on behalf of M for his summon, explaining why they show wave off the summon. The whole point is M thinks that the police officer (NOT EVEN TRAFFIC POLICE) took his cash card and he wants it back. So I wrote the report for M till 9 :)
I felt tired so we hung around Pasir ris till 12 mn :D
 M  B&W  annoying bugger  Forever Quarrelling.
Saturday
Everyone say M and I quarrel over the most retarded and smallest things. But don't you agree that the smallest things matter? Yup, saturday was probably the biggest fight we ever had. It all started in the morning. However, I figured it was his own life that he was destroying with his bad habit so i left it as that. I was working and being frustrated at the same time.
After that, I met T and B at Far East for Long John Soup (OMG LOVE) and Jessica came along! We walked over to OG Center point and shopped for a while before we went for dinner! Jessica was really exhausted cause she was involved in the Great Singapore Sale Race!
 Ichiban Sushi!  Blessy! Welcome home darling!  T's feast  Gobble up!  Jessica is tired  Us :D
Sunday
I went to work and it was supposedly the last day at ESPN for me! :( I will miss that place man. Anyway, I called M to meet up and talk things out. We did and everything turned out fine. He even went to church with me after lunch. My dad was relatively please that he went to church with me :D haha. Had dinner with M and went home for family meeting :D
I love family meetings. :D After the meeting, it was supper for the crew. Daddy was hungry so we couldn't stay out too long. Sister is having holidays! So she's going to join my night life now! haha
 T and J  My sister and her unglamness  Alright, much better!
M came along and M had a really rough night after we left downtown east. I didn't make things any better and in fact I made it worse. I was sorry about it and M came along after ranting and what not. Pratas were eaten and Janice's longan drink was done. haha. :) It was time to go home to deliver daddy's Mee Goreng! haha.
 Gabby Yue Bin Bin Mao Choot Choot  he's feeling much better!  And this dog is here to say hello!
Today (Monday, 26 May) Marks the 10th for M and I. Let's just hope we don't argue today. haha. We've been doing it for the past week. I hope nothing happens! If anything happens, I'll always have Mr Sunshine to cry on, right Miss G? haha. :D
