The Body Shop Sale

Yesterday I went to The Body Shop sale at the Convention Centre. I remembered last year it was also around this time of the year that they had a great sale there. It was up to 70% off & I came out of it with a lot of goodies. Good timing also since I was running out of some of my favorite items.

I'll list down my loot later on in another post as I'm actually planning on going back there today, their last day, for more. I arrived there yesterday with Mr A just a few minutes before closing so I really wasn't able to get all the things I wanted. The thing was packed! There were soo many people.

That's why I'm going there earlier today to get more loot. :) I'll update you later on my finds.

So excited. Woot!

Gear Max Screen Protector

I just bought a very nice Gear Max screen protector today for my precious VAIO. The OC side of me just couldn't stand the fact that my lappy screen is all naked & unprotected. I've been very uneasy & restless the past few weeks since I haven't bought one since I had my lappy.

Finally I found a good brand that was non adhesive, won't leave any residue, with PET material & made in Japan. I researched it thoroughly on the net before going out to get one. Luckily I found one at the IT mall today.

The sales person was even amazed that I didn't bring down my lappy so they can do the installation. They asked me repeatedly "you're doing it yourself?" I repeatedly answered a resounding "YES!" I know they were underestimating my capability to handle techie stuff, they don't know I've been a tech freak for a long time & I've been expertly putting screen protectors on PDAs, PSPs, lappys etc for so many times already. Not satisfied with my confident answer, the sales person said to me after handing me my purchase & my receipt "feel free to come back if you can't do it yourself & we'll install it for you." The nerve! I know he meant well but he was being very pushy already. I guess just because I don't look geeky doesn't mean I'm not a techie. Little does he know I've been in Tech Support for one of the biggest domain providers in the US for 5 years! (that is since I migrated to a different country & I'm now presently working in Corporate Banking....I know it's totally unrelated... go figure!)

Anyway, I'm happy with my purchase & that's all that matters. And oh yeah, the screen protector is already installed & I'm happily staring at my master work as I type here. :)

I Love Firefox

I absolutely love Firefox!

Aside from being a better alternative, not to mention FREE, to IE; I love that it's very customizable. I'm currently using the Windows Vista OS & I was able to make my Firefox look exactly like my IE w/ the AERO theme! I'm so happy with it.

It's more secure plus there are so many cool add-ons to choose from. Both to add security, as well as personality to your browser. Just finished configuring the "morning coffee" add on & I'm in heaven!

On with the customization......

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter Everyone!

I've been out most of the day celebrating the last day of a long weekend with my hubby Mr. A. Awww I can't bear to think about going back to work later on . It's almost 2am & I'm still awake typing away in my blog. I figure a short post in my blog won't take up too much of my time. (excuses....excuses)

I guess I'm just living the moment & trying to make the most of the time I have left till I have to go back to work. It's another manic monday & I can't wait till the weekend come again. The good thing is that pay day is just around the corner. Whopppeee!!!

Don't really have anything much to think about today. Oh yeah, I'm currently playing the new Nintendo DS Game Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles. I'm a game fanatic I'll have you know. I've been one since I was 10 years old playing on the old NES console. Old habits die hard & I've upgraded my console time & time when there's a new release.

Currently I'm enjoying my NDS Lite. I have so many games I'm playing simultaneously I don't know what to play first. I'm actually in the midst of finishing FFIII and Mario Party. I guess it would be a good idea if I finish those first.

So enough about that.... I think I'll play with my NDS for a bit before calling it a night.

Norton Products

I'm in the process of organizing my logins, as well as my programs in my new VAIO lappy. I'm using the built in Norton Internet Security software for antivirus, firewall etc. However, it's only for free for 90days and I have to renew my subscription. So far I'm happy with the product & I'm actually considering on purchasing Norton 360 v2. The thing is, I've searched the net & I've read about some bad experiences people had with the product. Now I'm confused.

I'm considering either the Norton 360 or the Norton Internet Security 2008 software. Hmmm. I still have 2months to go before this expires so I guess I'll read up some more. I've always had this idea that Norton was better than the others out there. I guess I need to do my homework first before I commit.

Some Template Editing & American Idol

I just finished changing my template...whew!


Thanks to suckmylolly.com for the great makeover. Editing my blog while watching AI. I'm really quite impressed with David Archuleta. He is very young but boy can he sing! I'm positive he'll be in the top 2 for sure.

I have a great idea for my blog. I'll be posting some pictures I've taken during my travels. That should be interesting...talk about making up for lost time. I guess finally having a new laptop means I don't have any more excuses for not posting.

New Sony Vaio Laptop VGN-CR35G

It's been some time since my last post. I've been meaning to write but a lot of things happened. The good news is I have a new laptop!!! I'm so excited about this.


Of course I bought this in Luxury Pink. I absolutely LOVE my new VAIO! Isn't it gorgeous!

Hopefully this motivates me to post more often. But first, I seriously need to change my layout....
