Yayness, good news.
I'll be able to change my phone this weekend!
Well, I'm not very sure if it'll be definite, but it looks pretty solid from where I am now.
My current phone, Z520i has been a bit of a disappointment. Okay, my parents got it for me cuz it was the cheapest of the lot, and I needed to change my phone cuz the previous one, a nokia 3120 (or something like that) decided to go diving in the toilet bowl =.= And it was going crazy. So yeah.
The software has crashed twice already.
It looks nice, white and all, more suited to girls than guys. It's got a great keypad, nice and soft. BUT..
The phone has very little memory, and there's no memory card slot! It doesn't take great pictures, much less videos (not that I take much vids but I got a really grainy one of my baby cousin).
The font for messaging is just GIGANTIC. And there's no way for you to change it. It's really huge la.
As for the crashing of the software, the screen just blanked out. You turn it on and all you see is white. Just white.
As if my phone isn't white enough already.
So after living with it for a few days, not messaging, being able to receive calls only, amd making calls if I key in the numbe with uptmost precision and care, I bring it to the Sony Ericsson centre at Wisma.
Thank goodness he was nice enough to lend me his phone. (And I still feel so bad that he had to buy another phone just to lend me his K750i.. -sigh-)
Anyway, after a few days in phone-hospital, it gets discharged. The software has been upgraded and all, etc.
Only for it to crash AGAIN a few months later =.=
The phone shuts itself off periodically, especially when I'm on the line, or when I flip it open and it dies, then it's the same scenario, the screen goes blank, and you can't do shit with it. (he lends me his phone again..)
And this time, the service at the centre SUCKED to hell and back again. It was there for more than 3 weeks, and I received no notification whatsoever, of whether my phone was repaired or not.
It has blanked out twice again this week, the latest of it's spasticity just earlier on. Thankfully, it didn't stay blanked out for long.
I'm always so afraid that I'll be greeted with a blank screen whenever I flip the phone open. So I'm NEVER getting a clamshell phone anymore. It's candybars for me, man.
So now, I'll be getting the K800i. A great camera, 3G, bigger memory space and a memory card slot (:
Sooooo freaking happy.
I was just looking through the phones at gsmarena.com when I was like, hey, what about K800i? Read through the specs and all, then it was off to the online m1 shop thingy to look at the pricing. it's $58 with a $200 trade-in. And since my plan isn't up yet, I'll need to add on another $100. Which would mean paying $158.
Which means it's WITHIN MY PARENTS' BUDGET!
I showed dad the page, gave him the math, and he gave a weird head-side-nodding gesture thingy. Then I was like, "What's that supposed to mean?"
And he was like, "Go and do it lor."
OMG.
APPROVAL.
I was previously aiming for N73, but then it's laggy, has functions I don't and never will need (I think =/), which would only slow it down, and it doesn't have a message counter. Being pampered by my Z520i for quite some time now, I don't think I'd be able to live without a message counter. My bill would like, EXPLODE. And my phone would get confiscated. Yadda-yadda.
So the K800i would be a better choice, yeah??
I'll be changing my phone this weekend (:
And my CNY booty: $222 (I think xP)
Overall money that came in an ang pow would be $242, counting the one ah ma gave me for my O level results as form of encouragement cuz she didn't know what to buy me. xP
That's the most I've ever gotten, I think. LoL.
So now I've got about $70 plus 80 on hand. Money that I can actually use and touch. Should I buy the new Evanescence album? Or wait till the 7th and final installment of HP comes out, buy the book and celebrate my patience at Vila'ge? xP
Headache ar, not knowing what to do with the money. Haha.
Seems like my blog entries get longer and longer. Or are relatively long. I'm spouting nonsense, I think.
I'm still esctatic about the necklace and earring set he gave me. xP Really very pretty la.
It hasn't gotten to the stage where I can say that I love him.
Yet.
I like him, definitely, but it hasn't deepened or reached that level yet.
I don't know if I'm holding back, if I'm forcing myself not to throw my entire being into another relationship again. I'd be doing Nat much wrong if I'm being with him just to fill up the hole inside me. I wonder if my sub-conscious is still in depression without me knowing, despite my sunny desposition. I catch myself missing him, thinking about him, wondering why it had to come to that.
So confuzzled.
Bleh, don't wanna think about that anymore. It's time to let the past go, and see what the future holds. A whole myriad of adventures would befall me when poly starts. I can't wait to know which poly I'm going to, and more importantly, which course.
So many things going on, chasing each other in my mind right now. Wish I could just chase them all away, just be me without any cares, any worries, to be truly happy..
Bugger.
Journey
