Another Bite of Apple

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!

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!

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 knowing you S3!

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!

iPad-MIni-Black

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.

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, purple and pink. I didn't wanna embarrass hubby using iPink so I chose iPurple. Haha

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

Unnecessary Dilemma

My mother in law once asked me about places that she could buy clothes or blouses from, at low price, so I replied, ‘Eh, mak kan orang sini (Muar). Patutnye mak la lagi tau’.  But since she really didn’t know, I tried to name a few places around here that I could recommend her, but nothing really came to mind. Here’s why! Because all this while, I’ve been shopping online!! Haha. (Berbalik pada cerita mother in law tadi, we finally brought her to Wetex Parade and bought a couple blouses there. Our treat, so kalau mahal pun xpa la pasal memang susah nak carik yang cantik dan murah kan.. Quality comes with the price. Hihi)

My favourite online shopping website is of course, ThePoplook.com. Till today, I’ve spent over a thousand buying dresses and blouses from that famous line. They’re just my taste! Hihi. Senang beli online sebab xyah round round jalan penat kaki kalau x jumpa apa kita nak kan.. Penat carik and still x jumpa, fed-up, boleh main Facebook terus, or better yet, shut down laptop, tido saja. Haha

Look at those!

All the dresses and tops I bought from ThePoplook.com. Hubby said I’m a crazy shopper. Naahh, there are many out there who are way crazier than me.

Just now, when I was browsing the website (the most dangerous activity for me because I always end up buying something), I saw these caftans. There are three designs, but these two are my favs. I’m just torn apart between them and I can’t pick one! Help!

I’m more to Lime Print, but Light Brown pun cantik jugak especially when I pair it with my dark purple long skirt. But I belum pernah ada baju colour lime tu. Takkanla kena beli BOTH pulaaaak though I really love caftans. Caftans are the best! They are comfy and flowy, perfct to beat the heat nowadays. It’s just been extra hot for the weather right now, kan? Tak tahan nk pakai baju fit2 lagi. So uncomfortable. Kejap je badan dah melekit macam hape.

Okay, so, which ONE??

p/s- Hubby said, ‘shopping selagi boleh, nanti dah ada anak kena berkorban sikit duit tu for baby.’

p/s/s – No, I’m not pregnant yet.

A Mad Woman In The Middle Of The Night

I can’t sleep. I’m so mad right now that I can’t sleep. I just realized that my favourite top was left in Tropical Inn Hotel during the English Conference that I attended last Saturday. Grrr! I’ve been looking all over for it and just now it suddenly clicked that the last time (also my first time!) wearing it when I was in JB. Eiiiii! Marah kat sapa sebenarnye?? Diri sendiri tapi mainly marah kat Mr.Gonzales! Sebab dier yang kemas the whole thing. I didn’t help because I was in the conference. At 12 o’clock, I left the conference and went up to our level to help him carrying the luggage to check out. Salah sendiri sebab x double check and yakin je hubby dah kemas everything. Baju tu i letak dalam almari and obviously hubby x check. Huhu.. Sedih sebab baju tu first time pakai and soooo comfy! Geram btol!

So, as a result, terpaksa beli lagi sekali. Disebabkan geram yang teramat, beli la pulak 2 colours. Black and coffee. Saje je kan? Memang saje pon.

This is the one yang tertinggal kat JB.

Hish! X pasal2 rugi lagi hundred lebih.. Kalau ikut hati yang sedikit jahat ni, nak je rasenye hack Maybank2u hubby sebab i still rasa dier yang salah. Tapi x jadi. Takpelah. He still has to pay, tapi esok baru claim depan2.

Okay. Now I feel much better. Off to bed now. Bye.

A Boring Update, Don’t Read.

When was the last time I properly updated this blog? Last November? Adoi kesiannya The Blind Kitten…

Siang tadi tertidur petang lama gila. 2 until 6!! I woke up early and slept quite late the night before. Memang letih sangat, tambah2 lagi tadi ada program kat sekolah. Balik2 terus tido and pukul 6 tu la baru bangun. Hubby said, I tido mati. Haha. Then, bangun2 je mak called. I told her that I just woke up and soalan wajib dari dia, ‘Dah sembahyang ke blum?’ No la mak. I’m in the time of the month. Sebenarnye ni memang update merapu sebab xtau nk tulis apa. Dah lama x blogging btul2. I miss the time when I always had something to blog about. Siap buat notes dulu sebab banyak sangat nk type. Haha.

So, actually last Saturday, I went to JB for English Conference organised by Brighton Education. It’s only my third time being in JB (kesian gila haha). Met two college buddies, one of them was my senior and the other one was my classmate. Well, the conference was fun but I had to go back early sebab kesian kat hubby ke’boringan’. He was not in the program, he was there to accompany me so bila I sibuk kat conference tu dia bosan, especially bila dah check out. So, about 12 something, we went back together. Tak terus balik rumah, singgah JPO. Terbeli la pulak Coach Shoulder Bag. I really love the colour and design. I thought beli nk buat raya handbag, tapi x jadi sebab rasenye memang terpakai pon before raya. Haha. So, since dah x jadi buat handbag raya, boleh la reveal gambar kat cni. Haha.

This is the bag! So comellll.. Haha

This is the bag! So comellll.. Haha. Gambar original kat S3, malas nk transfer. Ada kat Dropbox jugak, tapi malas nk download. Haha

Hubby pon sibuk nk bag jugak, so time masuk Adidas tu dia ternampak bag ni and sambar la jugak satu. Jumlah kerugian almost almost 2k.

Huhu. Esoknye beli pulak Wireless Printer from Brother kat Wetex Parade. Asalnya nk beli cartridge je, tapi tah camana, terbeli printer trus. Tapi memang best. 10 kali ganda hidup lebih senang dengan wireless printer. Takdelah wayar berselirat sana sini. Haha. Okay. Memang batak pon.

Brother printer is the best!

The same model I bought.

Eh, apesal asek cakap bnda yg I beli je ni…. Eh, bisinglah!

Actually, ada kerja lain nk buat skrg sebenarnya but I dont feel like doing it. Tu la.. Bila kerja makin banyak, jadi makin malas! Rasa nk tidooooo je… Tapi dah malam2 mcm ni, time semua org tido, I xmau tido la pulak. Huh. Dari dulu I memang ada issue ngn time management.

Okaylah. SHOULD go to bed now. Babai.
