My Wish List!

Everyone is talking about i-Phones, i-Pads, or whatever 'Is' are there around but me? I'm not really into that kind of gadgetries.  I tell you why I wont.

#1 - I'm not a techie geek, totally blind when it comes to these matters

#2 - I use mobile phone for text-ing, make/receive calls, taking pictures, listening to music (I seldom surf the net via mobile phones,  what's the use anyway? My 8-5 office life is already on the net, at home - with my trusted Digi broadband. So, my life doesn't revolve around these super-smart technologies)

#3 - I don't need a super duper genius mobile phone to look cool with

#4 - I'm a pheasant, so the price of an i-Phone is totally out of my budget  :(

Having said that, I think I might need to retract the #4 reason. This after I saw these:



..and the COMING SOON

Now, these beauties got me wishing, got me writing, got me talking. They hooked me so, I'm a newly-converted barely-there-geek-rats.  I am so gonna get me one of those. One of these days, I truly hope!

I've fiddled away with the Xperia Arc and I loved what I saw. Took me almost 30 minutes, checking the thing out @ one of the outlet in 1Borneo the other day! I had to forcibly tore myself away from it because there were people behind me, wanting to look-see and the salesperson's eyes were kinda glassing over (I think he's silently stewing inside like "heiisshh, pigang lama-lama, maka bukan mau bili pun!"

Kekeke..my cousin snapped some pictures of me with the Xperia Arc and well, I just HAD TO BLUETOOHed them pics to my mobile :D





at 8.1 megapixel built-in camera, who needs the conventional digi-cam when you  can just whip out your mobile phone (and a super slim ones at that)  and shoot away?

Note to self: MUST BUY!

Hometown Glory

It's been sooo long since I last updated my dear bloggie with my picture. I mean, my own picture, preferably some recent, non-airbrushed nor photoshopped pics of yours truly.

If you ask me, did I get fat from my recent trip? No, I don't think so.  Last time when I checked my current stats at the clinic where I got treated for my sprained ankle: it was 47.6kgs. Lesser than the previous 51.3kgs.  In as much, I think I managed to control myself from indulging in gluttony, yunno, when in kampung, the glorious fete being offered to you by your over-indulging relatives is bound to torture your tastebuds! When you're watching your diet and weight like the proverbial hawk watching his preys, that can be a total killjoy! Anyhoo, I think I've succeeded a little because I just bought myself a pair 'daisy dukes' pants and I managed to squeeze myself inside it! What a real miracle! Gah, a little snug but better than nothing, no?  :P

To me dearest readers and followers, here are  pictures of my recent trip to my hometown in Ranau. Bunches of 'em are shots with my sisters, cousin and cutie pie niece :)

The majestic Mt. Kinabalu as my backdrop! :)


with my kid sister, cute as button niece and cousin
my sisters & niece. Ranau town sure is improving, cue: the sidewalk
yours truly & cousin

..that's all for now. Will upload the rest of the pics soon. :)

Unwell

Twisted my left ankle last week.

The said ankle is currently in a bandaged state.  I had to walk like Captain Barbossa with his wooden peg leg. My right leg has to bear my entire body weight, it's so troublesome.  Having said that, I still forced myself to masuk opis.  What a beautiful life, eh? NOT!

Adding to that, my headache is tormenting me too! Cold hands and feet but my body is heating up.  I think I am racking up a fever. It might has something to do with the current state of weather.  What with the hot and dry air and the next thing we know, it's raining till the next kingdom to come.

I think i'm gonna wrap up early and go home.  There's no point of staying in the office when you're a wreck.

The Long Absence..

 For 6 years.. I haven't been writing anything.  The last entry that I posted was in October 2016! Damn! That feels like a century ago.....
