Letting Go

... is just so hard.

You have been a great friend. All of us love you, you know that. We will miss you so terribly...

Goodbye... Norbit.

And so, a hole was burnt.

OK, I’ve gotten it. Haven’t got much of a choice actually. Was debating whether to get a PDA phone... but I hate miniscule buttons which have everything against my clumsy thumbs. And what, individual buttons for every single letter? –snore- Why, when you can have 8 buttons to represent all 26 letters along with their smart text?

The iPhone doesn’t seem all that perfect according to my sister’s mutterings and bland note “My phone is not working, I don’t know why” from time to time. And I’ve always doubted the touch-screen function anyway. And it doesn't even have Bluetooth! WHY!?

Anyway, because this new Sony Ericsson handphone of mine is a walkman, the quality of the pictures is not as great as my faulty Cybershot handphone. :(

What now, I can’t go snapping away happily whenever I feel like it or to capture the God of Pigeons and be assured of reasonably clear pictures at the same time. Yeah, you can lug a camera along wherever you go, but it’s just... different.

The other handphones that have 8MP are as heavy as cameras and LOOK like cameras.

Ah, I guess I’ll just wait in a few years/decades (?) till they make everything one-third its current size.

Meantime, I’ll just make myself deaf with the 8GB of music on my handphone while the pictures on my blog will just be a disgusting blur of dull colours with lots of noise. (>_<)

Pweeeeeeetty...

My handphone's out - and thus gives me a good reason to look at these beauties. OMG, they are so pretty! Japanese phones? I want!!! *claws at screen* Even then when I was in Tokyo with JX, travelling around in her subways, I kept eyeing the handphones the Japanese were meddling with. Their big LCD screens, their vivid emoticons that they can insert in their messages. But I doubt those bouncing cute things will turn out well in other phones in Singapore. My messages will probably turn out to be Japanese error-gibberish on the other end.

Oh look! Waterproof ones! Just right for clumsy me! Ahhh..

But seriously how practical to spend near S$1k on something that is as good without warranty? (I think...)

The level-headed side of me nags at me that I should just settle for one that looks somewhat like it... like this:

Norbit, please get well soon...

Hi Nine

I don't want to be like the rest and try sum up 2008. I'll just let Uncle Jay sing it through. I say he did a tremendous great job!

Damn, how could I miss his news all this while! Go http://unclejayexplains.com/ for more of his sexy white beard and gleaming pate.
