with her new boy, eh eh I mean toy.
warning: this post contains excessive showing-off and jakun-ness elements. Read at your own risk.
It's a calling (or sign or whatever you wanna call it). It definitely is.
1st sign: My Bros water bottle, which is always secure and strong, freaking leaks water into my bag and tada! there goes my beloved ipod T___T
2nd sign: My housemate, who's almost ipod illiterate (as in she doesn't have the habit of listening to songs and playing mp3 player), got an ipod shuffle as her birthday present. She hardly uses it, and so after my ipod is officially declared dead, she lend me hers.
3rd sign: I exceeded my phone credit almost every month! I think i just need a higher cap plan.
Hence,
2nd July - My ipod died on me after swimming in the water pool in my bag for less than 10seconds.
3rd - 8th July - suffered from severe ipod withdrawal symptoms, especially during the long hours of waiting for boarding plane or bus.
15th July - JuAnn mentioned about the release date of Iphone 3G S by 3 company. Replied coldly by saying "Iphone is so overrated and expensive! whoever buy it has no better place to spend the money"
16th July night - realised that one can actually get Iphone
FREE by just signing up for 49cap plus $5 every month for 24months. Tempted, slightly.
16th July 3am - checked through the 3 websites. Recalled all the callings. Weighed the pros and cons. Made a silent decision in my heart.
17th July 11am - dragged Ling Weng from her beauty sleep to shopping mall to check out the phone.
And guess what!! The legendary phone has been sold out within the first few hours of releasing. wtf.
Depressed. Walked to a random hp shop and omg they have stock!!!! The dramatic emotional change has completely blinded me that I signed up for 49cap without a second thought =.=
And THERE's the end of story how 1+ got an iphone for herself. It's funny to know that a person as un-tech savvy as me, can actually decide to buy the latest iphone within 48hours of knowing the existence of this product.
But the story of how a jakun got ultra amazed by the awesomeness of her new toy has just begun, hahaha.
The first thing that fascinates the jakun (ps: pretty jakun) is the bubble chat form of text messaging.
the green bubble is sent messages by me, the white one is received message.
Then the jakun was so excited to use the touch pad to reply text.
but she got frustrated within a few mins of typing. Y on earth will people invent touch pad keyboard?!!
she then shaked her phone with anger, and the screen rotated.
and once again, she was surprised and found this horizontal pad is more handy to type heh.
Within the last 48hours, the jakun has learnt that her new toy can
provide weather forecast;

serve as a compass =.= which she doesn't find it useful at all;
Ipod!!! one of the main reason she got this;

dload free colourful and cute game applications;
I was so excited to find cooking mama free games but HECK you can only prepare one dish wth.
save her from being the lost soul in perth. Discovered this in Jeng's car just now. It totally serves as a GPS but it's called google map I dunno la har =.=
admiring self's polaroid photo lol. yes that's yours truly.

and I totally love the scrolling bars to set the time hahaha omg i'm an ultimate jakun.
HOWEVER, the problems discovered so far are:
(1) You have to go thru 1077346746283 steps to convert a song into a 30sec ringing tone to be used in iphone
(2) Bluetooth is basically useless. Only connected to headset or between iphones. t(=.=t)
(3) Battery runs out ULTRA FAST unless you don't touch it at all. Which is impossible because there are so many fun things to do! arghhhh
(4), which is also the main problem, I can't take photos although there's a camera!
I mean of cause I can take photos, the camera is perfectly fine, just that when an iphone with saved photos is connected to my laptop, the blue screen of death immediately appears wtf. pekchek can!
And obviously I'm not the only victim >>> http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1502
Although I know nothing about the solutions provided in the apple website, but I'm sure this problem will be resolved soon heh. I just need to ask around what to do. Or even better, get a new laptop! (I actually wanted to get a new laptop since forever and iphone is never in the plan y am I like that T__T such impulsive buyers TvT)
Lastly (chehh so high school essay ending),
After staying in Perth for more than 2.5 years, this is the first time I find myself taking this beautiful place too much for granted,
because I never take the effort to discover and explore the essence of this city, yet complain constantly about how boring it is.
very beautiful indeed.
