Another Bite of Apple

source

After about two weeks purchasing iPurple and falling in love with iOS, I decided to switch from android to apple. So, I passed down my S3 to my husband (he wanted it badly), and bought the second Apple gadget that I used to hate before. Taadaaaa!

iPHONE5!

Beauty!

So thin and sleek!

The home screen…

The lock screen..

I purposely chose black for the colour, to match it with my iPadmini that I bought before. Plus, I’ve been using white phones (S2 and S3) for two years so it’s kinda getting old. To be honest, I was not familiar with Apple gadgets and iOS, but it actually wasn’t that hard to master. I remember after buying an iPhone5, I went to Pizza Hut for dinner and there, I didn’t really eat though hubby ordered a lot of food. I just ate the salad and spent the rest of the night playing with my new gadget. Honestly, I couldn’t rest until I figured out the tricks and shortcuts this gadget has to offer.

 After more than two weeks owning and using this gadget, I admit there are certain things that are lot easier on S3, for example, well, the obvious one, setting the phone ringtone! Hahah. Using iTunes for the first time was quite confusing especially when I wanted to set the ringtone but I managed to do it (after several emotional tries haha), thank you Mr.Google and Mr.Youtube. The only bummer is, I can’t use Google Maps on iPhone because it’s not available on Malaysia AppStore. The iMaps installed in it for navigation purpose is super stupid, I can’t get anywhere using that. So my friend suggested me installing Waze. That one seems promising though I haven’t used it properly yet.

Matching black! My iPadmini and my iPhone5! The ‘in’ things right now. Haha

I don’t regret doing this move (from Android to iOS) even though I notice a lot of people around the world vote for android, particularly Samsung compared to Apple. I loved my S3 before, and I love my iPhone now. Both are great phones!

It’s been an honour owning you S3! Hehee

Though I already passed down my S3 to my hubby and it’s practically his now, but I don’t allow him to trade that phone to get an iPhone5, in case he wants to ‘berhijrah’ too soon. It served me well for less than a year so I don’t want it to be in a stranger’s hand.

So, that’s it! Bye!

New Obsession, iPurple!

I’ve got myself an iPad mini! At last! I named her iPurple since I chose her the purple casing. We didn’t have any intention to buy it actually and I blamed the whole thing on hubby. That day, we actually planned to go to Watson to buy my product supplies. After that, we went to the third floor to look at some cool phone casings. I was the one who wanted the phone casing, hubby usually was the victim who had to pay them for me. Haha. After buying two phone casings, I wanted to go home straight away, tapi hubby ajak singgah Navotech pulak. He said, ‘Singgah sini jap, nk tgk something.’ I said no, nanti makin tengok, makin banyak duit keluar. Hubby degil, dier cakap, ‘Takde laa… Sekejap je. Nk tengok bukan nk beli.’ Yeah right.

We went to different sections, hubby asked the salesman about computer stuff and I just walked around looking at everything. I noticed hubby went to iPad sections with the salesman and they chatted for more than 20 minutes. I knew it was 20 minutes because I looked at my watch. Kalau setakat tanya2 gitu je apesal lama sangat. So I went to him and held his hand signalling ‘Let’s go now’ but instead, he turned to me and said ‘Beli iPad nak?’ I was like, ‘Now????’ He insisted on buying but couldn’t give me solid reasons why. At first, I didn’t agree and thought it was a waste of money since we didn’t really need an iPad (though I agreed it was so cool to have it), but finally I surrendered. We always made random decision like this you know.. Remember when I bought my Sony Vaio Pink laptop last year? Mcm ni jugak lah. Cakap nk tgk2 je last2 beli jugak. Haish!

So, here’s the second argument. As usual, Apple’s products are available in two colour selections, black and white. We wanted the white one (I always hate black gadgets, I think they’re boring), but the one that we wanted (Wifi+Celullar, 16GB, White) was all sold out already. Black, that was all they had left. I asked hubby to order it first and waited until they called, maybe about a week or so, but hubby refused. He insisted on going home with an iPad on that day itself. I surrendered again.

So okaylah. Nk black, black je lah.

Unboxing the iPurple (which was not yet purple at this time).

Putting on the screen protector.. Look at her! Black and sexy!

It turned out, the black iPadmini was not that boring. To my surprise, this colour looks so classy and stylish. If you look at the featured image on top on this entry, you can see that the black colour actually covers both sides (front/back) like iPhone 5 whereas for the white ones, they use silver colour for the back side (less stylish because of the dull silver but of course it was cuter).

I was torn apart between these two colours of the casing, PURPLE OR PINK? But since I didn’t wanna embarrass hubby using iPink, so I chose iPurple. Haha

iPurple is actually my first Apple product (I’m an Android user). Now that I’m loving it to bits, I’m now weighing my decision to buy an iPhone 5. Haha!

p/s- Hubby yang nak sangat iPad, but balik rumah daku yg conquer. HAHA

I Am Back Babeh!

 

Hallloooooooooooooooooooooooo there!!!!

Yes, it’s me and I’m back!

O.M.G. Lama gila tinggalkan blog ni *bersihkan spider web!* If you look at the archives, there are few months missing, including the month of the 4th blog anniversary, August. Sooo sad.

Well, firstly, the reason I have not updated this blog was, I was quite busy (but if you are one of those who follow my updates in Facebook , Twitter on Instagram, you know that I was not that busy haha). I barely had time to take care of the blog because I rather spent my time watching TV, hanging out shopping,  lazy’ing’ etc.

The second reason was, my pinkish laptop (Fifi Winchester) that I have been using for blogging badly misbehaved. Though I also have a desktop at home, but I can’t blog on it. I’ve tried few times tapi feeling tu takda if you know what I mean. I ended up saving it as a draft and kadang2 satu line je pon. So, back to Fifi, well, I guess it was the time for me to find a replacement. Plus, she has worked sooo hard for these past 3-4 years and it is now time for her to rest. Or…….. Maybe hubby would want to use it since he does not have any. That, if he does not mind using a pink laptop.

Well well well, now I have the replacement so I am back to blogging!

I’ll make an entry about ‘the replacement’ soooon!

p/s – Owh my! I owe this blog 12 months story. -,-”

Darling, I’ll Get Back To You…

…as soon as I have a new laptop.

KISSES!

Introducing, SAMMY WINCHESTER! No, Not The One From Supernatural.

source 

Regarding to this entry, I now get a new phone! YEEEAAAAYYYY! I didn’t buy it tho, it is a gift from my beloved husband, Mr.Gonzales. Hihi. I think by now, you already can guess what phone I am using. Well, I’m gonna give you the name first. Haha. In case you don’t know, it’s my thing to name all my favourite stuff.

So, let me introduce you,

SAMMY WINCHESTER

(Yes, the name is after the character Sam Winchester, from Supernatural).

Enjoy the pictures of my Sammy and keep scrolling down to see why did I choose S2 over 4S.

This is his 'baju'.

His new baju! I like the casing! So classy. Haha. And the phone string is actually given from one of my students in SKTJ, as a farewell present.

Tadaaaaa! The white Samsung S2, it's just what I want. And Sammy is so cute!

The main wallpaper+screen

The menu+apps and etc

The text messaging.. Saje try2 ngn hubby. Haha

Conversation with mom when she was in Bandung. Haha

The Facebook apps..

Whatsapp with Ida. Haha.

Okay, like I said in previous entry, I was torn apart between iPhone 4S and Samsung Galaxy S2, and finally I stick to my decision to buy S2 that now is named, Sammy.

Before I go further, what I’m gonna write here is solely based on my point of view and ‘interviews’ from other users. It could be wrong so, it’s up to you to judge.

There are few reasons actually. The main reason is, Samsung is a better-built design compared to iPhone 4S. I mean, it’s tougher. It is proven through the drop test between 4S and S2 on a Youtube. I am not sure if that test is actually a fake, but I don’t wanna take a risk because I’m a person who always drops stuff. Ape bnda yang aku pegang x jatuh? Semuanya jatuh. Laptop pon penah jatuh. Haha.

Another reason is, I like the design of this smartphone. Although it is slightly bigger than iPhone 4S, yet it is thinner and sleeker, which I think looks more modern. I always like sleek phones. Regardless what brand they are, sleek phones are cool. And 4S is not cool enough for me. Hihi. That’s what I think lah, you can always disagree.

Some of my friends has advised me to take iPhone. Well, I think it’s mainly because that’s what they like, for example Salina. She asked me to buy iPhone, and I asked why? She said, because she SIMPLY likes Apple. Tu je. Kalau tanye lain, dier tak tau kot. Hahahaha. But to me, I know and admit that iPhone 4S is famous for its popular applications and some of them are sooo cool, but I don’t really mind. For a fact, Samsung is the best Android phone.  Apple products MAY have high quality and they are PROBABLY the best, but it is not the same case with this particular product, iPhone 4S. I have read many negative reviews about this smartphone, on the Internet and also from my friends who are using 4S. That’s why I choose Samsung S2.

The other day, I saw some of Apple fans wrote this somewhere on a few websites when Samsung Galaxy S2 keep winning the argument of which one is better, Hate Apple = Can’t Afford Apple. Haha. Is this a joke? Because if it is, then it is a good joke, it’s really funny!

And no, I don’t hate Apple. In fact, I’m dying to get a Macbook if this Fifi Winchester (my pink Vaio laptop) dies on me one day. It’s just that, I’m not into iPhone 4S because I think (I repeat, I THINK), unlike any other Apple products which are mostly genius, this particular gadget from Apple, is not so much.

Okay, I rest my case.
