The Fray sucks.

the devil wears moleskine, part five

five times. wow. and maybe a sixth, too, if it continues to screen. and maybe a seventh, to round out the number.

i'd like to write more, but i'm not going to.

silver sliver

the Chinese office of the company my aunt works for gave her this silver Motorola SLVR L7 to use when she's in China. it replaces the black Motorola RAZR V3 she misplaced.

i actually like it a lot---i think it looks way better than the black-colored version.

pearl jam

Pearl Gray?

TRENDY

this is the first ah lian bag i've seen that proclaims itself as TRENDY.

lovely. and to round things off, a quote from the current bag lady herself.

'what? it's eleven thirty-nine already? i still have to clean the LV wallet!'

Now Playing---On Both Sides

this is the new Nokia N95. can someone explain the rationale behind the slide-down dedicated media keys to me? because it would appear that their functions are duplicated by the directional pad whilst in music-playing mode. and in standby mode, with the music player in the background, the phone's screen orientation is vertical instead of horizontal, so the media keys are pointing in all the wrong directions. and do you really want to slide the phone down and reach all the way up there just to do something with your music?

buy an iPod, lah.

panic (at the PowerBook)

so i've finally got a proper copy of last.fm working on my Mac, and i run it for a couple of hours. then i check my user profile. and apparently i've been listening to PANIC! At The Disco, whatever that is.

um, hi? no, i haven't?

and what the heck is Waking Ashland? if there's one thing about me that you do not screw around with, it's... well, there're many things, but music is definitely one of them. you do not screw around with my music. and there is no PANIC! At The Disco in any of my iTunes libraries.

If you're going to make your old man buy you an Xbox 360, at least have the decency to carry it yourself. You won't be a teenager for much longer, for goodness' sake. And, also, don't be such a cheapo---at least spring for the full Xbox 360. The Xbox 360 Core bundle is like the poor people's discount.

blue is totally the new green

i've just noticed... almost everything media-related by Apple is blue. Safari, iChat, Mail, Preview, and now iTunes.

in other news, it looks like we're in for a spot of lovely weather.

i would like to marry Steve Jobs

so, normally, the day after an Apple Special Event, i am left both excited and disheartened, because OMG SHINY NEW TOYS, but also OMG CANNOT AFFORD ANYTHING ANY MORE.

so when all those shiny (and matte---new nanos and shuffle are aluminium) new iPods were lauched i immediately checked my bank account balance, in between transcribing everything from the IRC chat room into the iChat window, where i was delievering news to Adri.

some of the new features, like brightness control, gapless playback and some sort of way to see where i was on the list whilst scrolling through thousands of songs/artists/albums, i have wanted for a long, long time.

so when the new iPods, with all that and some new Search function and longer battery lives and brighter screens were annouced, i was dismayed. because i won't be able to afford anything new at that price for a very, very long time, even if they're cheaper now.

but OMG Apple. they updated the software for ALL fifth-gen iPods. so i have brightness control, gapless playback, and an alphabetical overlay when i scroll through lists above a certain speed!!!

i don't have Search or a brighter screen or a larger-capacity battery, but WHO NEEDS ALL THAT? the Search is too Creative-fussy, anyway. and i have daily access to a power point. or a computer with FireWire or USB 2.0 ports.

I AM SO EXCITED!

the devil wears moleskine, part four

"This is a non-gentle reminder that we are meeting at SIX-THIRTY PM, at RAFFLES PLACE INTERCHANGE. I don't understand why it's so difficult to confirm an appointment, especially when all you have to do is send a quick response, but the details of your incompetence do not interest me. Those of you who DID respond---what do you want, a kiss on the forehead and a gold star on your homework at the end of the day? Be late at your own peril, I am in an excellent mood today. Oh, and Emily? Dress like a hobo and you will be shaming just yourself. And me. That's all."

wow. six Prada references in one (admittedly long) text message. and, yes, i think i am très très cool, and très très chic. that's all.
