New gadget, perhaps?

I have been known to my friends as someone who changes mobile phones every year. Well those were very long time ago.

My current phone is Galaxy Note which was released 2 years ago. When I first used that, friends were smirking or laughing seeing me holding such a big phone to my ear. They would make jokes that I looked funny holding an iron to my face.

Then bigger screens phablets came along (ex: Galaxy Note 8.0) which some people still use them as a phone without the bluetooth headset. So putting my Galaxy Note to the ear no longer looks ridiculous as big screens have become a norm.

Recently Samsung launched their products for 2013 lineup. I am tempted again by one of them. This will be my new gadget, perhaps?

Being Thankful

Yesterday while having a chat with my sisters, they brought up about the importance of being thankful for all the good things in life, and a practice of counting 10 of your blessings each day. Yeah, I think this is a really good practice to keep ourselves in a positive state of mind.

Here are the 10 things I am thankful for, in no particular order:

  1. I am thankful for my overall good mental & physical health
  2. I am thankful for my love ones and their good mental & physical health
  3. I am thankful for friends, some whom I may not meet always but stay in my heart
  4. I am thankful for having a job that enable me to sustain my lifestyle
  5. I am thankful for good bosses & colleagues
  6. I am thankful for my home which is in a good condition
  7. I am thankful for my safe neighborhood
  8. I am thankful for my car which I love soooo much
  9. I am thankful for being able to go for vacations now and then
  10. I am thankful for having all that I need in life

Ikea PS Cabinet

Sigh... after waiting for the price to drop for more than half a year, I finally gave in and bought this Ikea PS Cabinet for the original price of RM275. Ikea had a promotion last Christmas for this item at around RM195 which I missed.

Assembling this cabinet is surprisingly easy where there isn't any screws to hold the pieces together. It is very much like fitting the pieces together like Lego and voila, a sturdy cabinet! I got that done by myself in around an hour's time.

So now what I need are a nice big white painting, a cool white table lamp and a small decor; and I should be done.
