So I’m testing this new application for my BlackBerry. It’s a wordpress application which makes it easier for me to post to my blog without loading my browser in my phone.

So anyways I’m just gonna go back and do nothing. Ciao.

I just realized I don’t write interesting blogs as I used to few years ago. Pathetic.

Anyways. I’ll write a long blog later but right now I’m just excited to say I have a new phone! Yes. I have finally bought a new phone. My Sony Ericsson z601 is still usable, and it’s used for my old number but yeah, now I have a new Blackberry Storm 2! It’s quite heavy though, not what I’m used to.. and I thought iPhones/iPods are heavy.. hehe. However I’m going to watch American Idol first so later.

Yesterday I finally received my original HORI screen protector for the DSi. :D

I ordered it from play-asia less than 2 weeks ago and it finally reached me. I got the fake screen protector when I bought the DSi which is normal in Malaysia and I screwed it up. I didn’t know how to put it on so it had scratches and holes on it. But this HORI one is soooo fricken easy to put on and it sticks flawlessly, like it’s not even on the screen. You have no idea how happy I am that the screen is brighter again.

Then I found out about this iPlayer that can play basically mostly any format on the DS/DSi but it’s quite expensive. USD$36+USD$20 shipping (I could opt for free shipping but it’ll take ages). I hate having to convert all videos into DPG before I can put it on my DSi. I’ll get it soon.

My PR class… suddenly we’re told that our last assignment would be a fricken group assignment.. URRRRRGHHHH! I hate this. I thought this semester we could avoid that but nooooo. I HATE group assignment. I’m already rushing for time for my final project and graduation showcase, now I have to worry on group project. Thing is, there’s 7 people in my group. I’m the only girl. And today in class, all we did during discussion was laugh like hell cuz the guys were being perverts that are into beastiality haha. I’m scared it’ll end up having only 2 or 3 people that will do the work. Oh well we’ll see. I usually don’t have good luck with group project.

I just typed a shitload of stuff to test blogging from dsi and I accidentally clicked cancel. FML

If this go through then cool.

EDIT// cool it worked. Wasnt sure if wordpress editor would work on dsi browser. Now I can blog whenever i’m away and with wifi connection.

If you are by any chance looking for insurance quotes, you can get it from the website. I’ve already mentioned quite a few times before that insurance is important.. well to some it may not be, but in some situations, it’s vital to have insurance.

This is an overdue post.

I GOT MY FRICKEN NDSi. If you have me in facebook then you might already know.

Bought it last Wednesday (Oct 7th 2009). Been a tough week to research, survey and deciding. I finally decided last minute that I wanted the pink NDSi because it actually look damn good in real rather than the picture. I’ve surveyed Low Yat and Sungei Wang so many times.. I found out that some Sg. Wang sellers are dumb stupid and they want to argue with me with the fact that firmware update 1.4 will block all flashcards, Japanese console is way cheaper (RM580-ish) and they also have the very expensive package (RM1100+). I wanted to buy from this woman at Low Yat for RM800 but she didn’t carry pink NDSi.

So at last, I decided to buy from this guy that i found at Low Yat forum. It’s extremely risky since this is my first deal from someone who doesn’t have a store, and anything could happen. However he is the only one offering Acekard 2i instead of fricken R4i and its clones. The deal price was RM775, but suddenly during that day he said price went up so I’d have to pay RM790 instead which is sooooorta true cuz pink color just launched, the price is still higher than the black one. Oh well. It’s still cheaper than other stores. And cheaper than getting it from Play Asia or something. At least he let me keep the original US charger.. I hate the fact that most stores open up the box, and exchange the charger with a cheap universal charger that’s compatible with Malaysia.

So here’s what I got:

- NDSi console US version
- Acekard 2i
- 4 GB Kingston’s memory card
- Screen protector
- Silicon casing
- Free Malaysian compatible charger

So far I’m loving my NDSi. I fucked up the screen protector though so I bought a new original HORI from Play Asia. Still haven’t arrived yet. I love the camera even though it’s very low quality but I’ve been having fun with it.. love the flipnote application which allows you to do flipbook animation. This would’ve come in handy when I had to do my flipbook animation :\ And if you have wifi connected, it’s like youtube for DSi where you can view animations and download them or comment them. Whatever you write for comment on your DSi will appear on the Flipnote Hatena site. Wanna see some of the comments I’ve made?

No regret. NDSi is better than DS Lite. I seriously hope I won’t lose this one as I’m officially broke and have no more money to replace it. Beside, I’m also saving for PC Fair in December to buy portable HDD 500 GB. It was extremely troublesome that when I went back to Ipoh for Eid break that I had to bring my big external HDD because my portable one died.

Anyways, I don’t know what to think anymore of Malaysia. When I went to Low Yat, there’s A LOT of stores that sells laptops, netbooks, accessories that aren’t MALAYSIAN and by this I mean Bangladesh people.. wtf. They no longer work those low class jobs, they now are entrepreneurs in Malaysia and educated…soon, they’ll conquer businesses in Malaysia and leave Malaysians out of job while they monopolize the industry. There’s way too many foreigners here now. Ain’t that awesome?

I have a lot of things to blog about but I’ll try to write them this weekend. First of all, I wanna blog about yesterday.

Yesterday was interesting. I had class in the morning, then a shoot after that with Alison and her bf.. which went okay except that all of us got bitten like mad by mosquitoes. I felt bad they had to be tortured like that so I treated them McD. Then came back to college for meeting. The graduation meeting is starting to feel like the old student leader meeting, where there’d have unexpected meeting one day and only inform everyone the night before which would ruin whatever plan you have on that day. Urgh. But…! I got my result! YAY!

Research Methodology –  A
Short Film Workshop –  A-
Video Editing –  A
Video Production 2 –  C+
Media Studies –  A

GPA: 3.61

—————————————-

OMG. I’m so fricken happy that my GPA is still above 3.5. The stupid Video Production 2 ruins it, but then again I’m quite surprised it was C+ considering everything was extremely fucked for that subject, all the problems with documentary and an embarrassing final presentation so C+ is acceptable. I got scared that I might get low because one guy has to resit for that subject and his final project was good. I thought I might get D or something. So far, no D ever in my subjects.

I’m also surprised at the rest. Ok, Research… It was a quite a tough subject. Then one of the guest assessor said my report was incomplete (and said that to everyone too) and would not give good marks for it.. then video editing.. well, it was an easy subject.. except the final presentation day where my group was late to present, my external HDD died so we couldn’t present normally like the rest of the groups. I thought the fuckups would affect the grade. Media Studies – wow.. it was a tough subject. The last presentation was nerve wrecking. The assignments were hard.

But overall I’m satisfied with my result. So I’m happy.

After the meeting I went to Low Yatt to survey DSi prices. If I just want the console, the cheapest I found was RM670 (USD$193) and the highest was around RM750 (USD$216) I think. If I want together with package.. where this is hard since each store is different, the cheapest is RM750, and the highest was like RM850 or almost RM900 (USD300). Still fricken expensive. BUT, this one store let me test it, and I played some games on it… omg, now I so badly want it.

You see, I thought DSi had just minor upgrade. But once you hold it, you can totally feel the difference. The surface is of course no longer smooth. The matte black has rough surface, and the white feel a bit smoother. I’m starting to think it’s good, because the DS lite tends to slide off my hands quite a number of times before. It’s thinner and a bit bigger, buttons feel different now, not protruding like DS Lite. And the screen.. argh, it felt so different. I thought o.25 inc bigger is not much of a deal but you can really feel the difference. Contra looked so good on it. Camera was eh… so-so. It’s the quality of a webcam but still quite ok. Ugly colors though. I still love metallic rose on DS Lite, but I could still live with a black DSi. White looks good too but it will get dirty. Blue – yuck. Pink hurts my eyes.

They offer either R4i, R4i Gold or R4i Pocket. I want Acekard 2i but I have to add Rm20 – Rm40 extra, wtf. If I buy online it’s only like Rm40-ish after converting currency. I think I’m gonna buy it anyway and then buy Acekard 2i online. Hopefully I can get it next week.  I still need to survey Sungei Wang and Imbi Plaza first. Oh! PS2 slim is cheap nowadays.. I think I’m gonna get it after this semester is done. It’s around RM470 (USD$135) now. When I bought it, it was RM1500 (USD$432) for a modified bulky PS2. So I’m gonna wait a bit until I can go back to Ipoh and sell the old bulky non-working PS2. I miss playing PS2 games.. at least I can play it for a while until I can get money for Nintendo Wii.. the fricken awesome black Wii! Oh half modified PSP 3000 is cheaper than Dsi, lol. It’s like RM 600-ish.

After that I had an interesting situation with scammers. FUCKING SCAMMERS. I’ll write about it later in a new post. Oh yeah, in need of a tuxedo vest? Formaltux.com is having discounts now, so if you need a tux for occasions, now it’s the best time.
