iPod, I Pok

Went IT fair yesterday (9th March) with only one objective - get an ipod nano. But before that, was supposed to accompany sh to giordano for an interview.. but the usual me.. was at home mapling till i was late.. haha.. so i told her that i'll go to suntec to get the pod 1st before going to meet her. Took 162 to suntec.. but it took an awful long time to reach.. and don't know what my empty head is thinking.. didn't alight at the stop as i thought that the bus is a loop service. In the end i found myself stranded at shenton way.. argh! And don't know what my empty head is thinking again.. didn't took a bus back but chose to walk instead. Under the burning sun at 2p.m., i was almost BBQed.



The legendary "Boon Tat" St... wahahahaaa!




Wanted to take the whole name - Esplanade - Theaters on the Bay, but couldn't coz my 6260 cannot zoom out, and if i move back anymore, i'll end up in the middle of the road!

So i walked at the way.. something like City Venture.. haha.. finally reached suntec after additional walking of 30 mins. And my.. it was not as crowded as i expect it to be.. but i'm suprised at how many staff there were... i think it's more than the crowd maybe? Haha.. so i spent hours walking around trying to find the apple booth or rather, an ipod.. but after hours.. i still couldn't find it. SH came to meet me after her interview.. and i told her i couldn't find the booth.. haha.. maybe i was dreaming or something? Until when i've decided to go, some purple t-shirts caught my eye.. and i can see the Apple logo on it! Finally.. haha.. and met SH's schoolmate.. she's also working there... so the comission goes to her.. but before that, we went to BK for a drink.. i was exhusted.. so while resting, discussed which 'size' to buy - 1GB, 2GB or 4GB.. but in the end settled on 1GB only.. for $268 (as advertised) includes $33 voucher and a silicone pack.. don't know where it comes from.. so i add another radio receiver for $88.. in total, $323. Before leaving BK, SH told me to beware of her friend.. she says women are very li hai in pushing sales.. haha.. okok.. i get the idea.. i was once a sales staff too.. At the booth, SH's friend told me there's a $20 cash-back if i pay with credit card.. = = If i have the ability, i'd have signed up for a card and get ipod nano FREE le.. haha.. yupz.. and thanks to Chloe who helped to check the price of the nano for me.. too bad i bought in impulse.. well.. refund?




Finally got it purchased, and burnt a hole in my wallet.. and made my heart sank to my stomach. And their plastic bag, pink in colour! OMG.. hahaa.. first it was purple, next pink.. what colour next?

Returned to home base (Thomson) to get my contact lense done finally.. All was done that day.. all except my POA revision.. so in the end i skipped POA mocks as well..



Mapling these few days.. now a level 24 noob.. and it was just days ago.. just discovered my blogs were also infested with adware.. please get your popups blocker up.. Changing the way which i post my pics.. using the programme offered instead of "hello".. but i don't know.. i don't like the idea.. haha.. excpect maybe all the pics are in one post.. maybe i'll find a better one.
