CNY Wind Blowing?

You might think that the post is totally not relevant to the title, but then, I am just trying to jumble everything up into one blog post to make up for the period of time that I stopped blogging.

First things first, I would like to wish all my friends and readers that are celebrating Chinese New Year in 6 days time. This year, as always, I will be in Miri to celebrate the Chinese New Year and of course, fill my stomach with food. Hehe, no offense but just a lame joke that I am trying to pull.

Then again, this year, I don't really feel the Chinese New Year atmosphere roaming around that much.. If you are wondering what I mean by that, its like, you can't feel the hyp-ness where people are excited to celebrate Chinese New Year... Maybe its the economical situation? Or just because of the "happenings" that has been happening in Miri lately... A lot of people are saying that the year 2009 is starting off with a very bad luck to Miri... Oh well, we just got to live to the fullest don't we?

Well then, what have i been doing for the past few weeks? I haven't been blogging or online as much for a start. Got a few personal stuff that I had to take care, and lots of running errands. Even so, I did not let the opportunity of pampering myself escape from my grasp hehe... I managed to get hold of the latest Sony Ericsson C905 Black Edition. From the moment i saw this phone, I was immediately mesmerized by the functions it has. Which includes, the latest 8.1 megapixel phone cam with Cybershot. As the official Sony Ericsson website dubs it, Picture Perfection.

Below is a picture of the phone taken from the Sony Ericsson website and you can have a look at the overview of the phone HERE.

Just for a preview of the 8.1 Megapixel phone camera. Below is a picture that I snapped out of boredom.

This picture was taken indoors, around 7pm.

Next on my pampering myself list is another gadget that I would dub as my media center... These few days I have been thinking of working on something like uploading mp3 ringtones for everyone to download... of course, the latest songs... and maybe the songs that you might want to request but most importantly, FREE.

So, what is this gadget that I am talking about? At first I considered of getting myself a MacBook... even considered the iPod classic and iPod touch.. but in the end, I settled down with an Asus EeePC. It is a bit small and has no optical drive, but it fits my purpose of portability and functionality.

Thats it for this blog post, hopefully I will be coloring upcoming blog posts with a lot of pictures since I've gotten myself a wonderfull gadget! Thank you for reading my blog!

2009. New Year, New Beginnings?

Counting the hours, it has been approximately 49 hours 30 minutes into the year 2009. So, what does it mean to be in the new year? Some people say, new year, new resolution, everything new. Lol. Does that mean being a different person every year? Different personality and different behavior?

Everyone is looking forward for a new year. But for me, it suddenly turned upside down. Things did not go the way as planned, family issues, financial issues, and etc. So what is it that people call a prosperous new year?

Yeah i know, life always has its ups and downs. But sometimes when i think of it, isn't it a bit too much for someone like me? I agree that life has its challenges. And getting through them gives one experience. An experience that even money could not buy....

Well, these few days i've been thinking a lot... and i mean A LOT of sleepless nights. And i think it is time for me to make a final decision. A decision that will either turn my life over, or make it worse. Well then, with that said and my thoughts put into words, I would like to wish my readers a Happy New Year and i wish you all with a prosperous new year.
