Hahaha, ya, come to think of it, we're kinda "thrifty", though, I never regard myself as a thrifty person,
To buy a new notebook, I thought so long, now, I've decided not to give it a go,
To buy a sewing machine, so that, I can start learning how to sew, till today, I've not even pursued and decided on one yet,
To buy more additional harddisk, to backup our photos, especially from the canon eos, we've not really added any, though, we keep talking about it…
And needless to say, he's using a phone provided by the company, and I'm still on my SE W880i… why change? It's still functioning…
As long as our gadgets are still working, seriously, we can't persuade ourselves to spend that few thousands dollars, just for a change, or, to keep up with the trend…
Our TV set, not LCD, not LED, or whatever D, (now the talk is 3D), have sent for repair once, but it's still going strong, that’s why it's still sittting there, happily…
Our casio exilim, the battery's gone case, it failed to be charged, I went to the shop, asked if they've the battery pack that I can buy, they asked, "what year?", I said, 2008!! Hey!! It's only merely 2 years ago, ok~~~????
They said, "so old already, we don't have!!"
Yes, I know, a lot of people,
Change car on regular basis,
Change handphone on regular basis,
Change notebook on regular basis,
Change TV on regular basis,
But, it's just not so regular for us!!
After talking for so long, thinking for so long, contemplating for so long,
And after I've decided not to change my notebook, cos, I've a good PC sitting at home for me to use, and I'm a stay-at-home-mom/wife, ie. I'm not always on-the-go anymore, is there any reason why I need a notebook?? No, I can't find a reason for myself,
Though my twinhead efio's still slow, still loud, and still making hell-a-lot-of noise, it's still working~~
Ya, in a way, after giving it a ubuntu linux boost!! It's working happily, though still loud, still noisy… ^_^
(and, now I've this urge to try out the new linux, ie. linuxmint… ooh…)
And after so long…
Today, we've finally swiped our card, and get the cheapest ipod touch, ie. the 8GB one,
Even though this is considered an out-dated product to be purchased, (people are talking about iphone4, yorr~~~)
But then, I've to say,
I'm very happy and excited about having this new piece of gadget, and of course, I really feel very appreciative about having it…
In fact… the very reason of buying one, which will make everybody shakes their head is…
So that baby can play with it…
And the cheapest? Cos, it's for baby to play with it, while we can use it in those free-wifi place…
No important information will be stored in it, anything can be deleted, cos, baby's good at deleting stuff… (just like me!! I remember I deleted/removed the whole lot of processed geophysical data in our server, in my first job; and why on earth our sys-admin actually allow a user to have the permission do remove the data? So, I don't think it's my fault, though, I felt guilty bad that, well, I felt guilty, it's because I didn't have much IT knowledge at that time, that's why I deleted the data on the server side, and that's why I felt guilty, but now, I've slightly more knowledge about this server/client relationship, and all the permission talk, so, I don't feel guilty anymore!!)
Oh, back to our new gadget…
Well… it's still sitting happily, but idly on my workdesk, cos, I've not loaded any apps yet…
Will search for one, later today…
Up till now, I've only managed to finished whatever I'm supposed to jot down, (ya, I write down all the "inspired" topic, things to talk about on my onenote, then I can write lengthy about them…, ie. jobs I give to myself!)
All because baby's refused to sleep the night before, and I lost all my personal time... (ya, sitting in front of PC, browing people blogs, play some fb games…)
And I don't have to mentioned, I was quite upset about it, that, I let baby cried… cos, she just refused to go back to her sleep, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT!!
…………
Oh, the previous paragraph's simply, just to explain why I don't have time to search for the apps… ^_^
Ja!
