Unpredictable

Yesterday and today, absolutely busy.

Running here, running there.

But there were some huge upsides to those days.

Yesterday, quite a number of familiar faces turned up.

Firstly, my parents came. I was pretty surprised, I wouldn't have predicted my dad to come to this place.

He did complain quietly about something, although I heard, but not my fault, either the head waiter or the chef's fault :P. Either one didn't follow it correctly, although I explained.

Luckily he still liked the food.

And then, Danesh a/l Thiagarajah came with his parents.

Glad to have a complement from him.

And finally the noisiest group of them all...

Theresa Belle, A.E.C.K.Y Low, Nicole Wong and Sharmili Nair (never knew her before) came.

They... I mean we were laughing like crazy most of the time.

Nice to see that they enjoyed their food too.

I managed to get them a 10% discount.

Theresa wanted ice-cream, heard one scoop is RM7.90, and straight away - Uh... nevermind!

Eh, Theresa, you haven't offered me a discount in Sushi King yet! :P :P

I'm calling you Sushi all the time :D

This morning, I had a real good wake up call.

My dad bought me a new mobile phone. WHAT?

I never asked for one, never requested, never needed one, didn't exactly want a new one at the moment either.

But it's cool. Real cool.

Phone name/Phone brand name: Absolutely no idea! I didn't even bother to look. And by looking at the phone, none of you can guess what brand it is either. Seriously.

Advantages (might have a lot because my previous phone only can call and sms) :

1. Woohoo! I can log on to facebook via the phone now

2. I can easily go to Eurosport for the latest sports news.

3. Love the ability to play songs and listen to clear radio, with good sound quality

4. I finally have bluetooth! :P

5. There's the world timezones, which makes it easier to find out time differences, especially when watching live sports matches, or even for my Auckland trip

6. You can watch TV with it!

7. Two sim cards can be used at the same time.

8. Nokia batteries is compatible with the phone. Excellent, I can use one as a spare battery.

9. 3.2 Megapixel camera.

10. (The best part) It's only RM375!

Disadvantages:

1. Messaging is hell for this phone. The dictionary messaging is so much more complicated than the Nokias/Sony Ericsson etc.

2. TV isn't that clear, and I only can get local TV! I wished I had ESPN...

3. The phone's framerate is pretty slow online. Very slow in fact. Not the internet speed's fault.

4. I can't play Mousehunt on this :(

5. Battery life - Around 6 hours. That's pretty miserable.

6. The melody composer... the instruments sound really irritating.

Overall: Considering it's just RM375, it's definitely worth it.

Now I can take pics from the Paramore concert! Woohoo!

Next blog post... maybe tomorrow, or only after the Paramore concert.

BTW, manager, I want my February salary.
