New Things

Got some new stuff to rejoice along with the new year =)

At the beginning of the new year... people would start with new resolution and stuff, but I've decided to begin it with some new stuff, with the thanks of parents and friends (because I lack the fund to support myself)

Either way, just so happy that I have to brag a little... so forgive me!! XD

Am just too excited d at the moment that's why =)

But either way... just finding reasons to rejoice in life =P
The first was my new laptop, was looking into getting an Asus though... but dad ended up getting me a Dell, not bad though.... really good, and so much more better than my previous one... but even so I've been using my old one for 3-4years and recently it started dying so had to change =p

It's a black colored Dell Studio 14 laptop... and somehow.... yeah the black is really really reflective you can even see the camera's reflection there....
this is how the desktop looks, forgive me but I've been getting into Final Fantasy VII Advent Children again lately =P

It came with Windows 7, coming from an XP user to Windows 7, man it's a huge change and difference... kinda looks like Vista though in some areas, but loving the part where you can finally multitask, suffered during Vista that's why I downgraded back to XP

It also came with Intel Centrino 2... erm... not too sure about that part but suppose to be better than my old one that's for sure ~~
oh ya... the AC power adapter, it's different... and at the point where you plug it in... got a certain blue light indicating it's on~
slightly above there that shows the battery charging light... very small and hard to notice O.O
SRS Premium Sound... can't really notice the difference until I use earphones, wah the sound quality.... O.O
The erm... mouse thingy, and I'm sure you'll notice the little design around it.?? Well it's all over the laptop even on the cover lid
keyboard... feels really different and I'm not too used to it yet at the moment cause can't seem to type as fast as I could do on my old laptop... feels really different ....
The power button is there at the corner... haha weird huh??
dual earphone jack, along with one USB port, and the D drive~~
and on the other side... SD Card reader... Network Card thingy... HDMI Port.... etc etc... along with another USB port and a SATA Port....

the sad thing is that this laptop only has two USB ports, which is hard for me since I need to use alot at a time... but either way there's always a way to find one's way around something so it's okay, not that of a big thing~~
Yeah how it looks like overall.... as nice as it looks, only downfall is that it attracts fingerprints easily, therefore looks very dirty so gotta keep wiping it~~

other than that, I love my new laptop =)

Next item!!
JENG JENG JENG!!!
yes I have FINALLY got myself a PSP...

since day one when they released the first PSP I have been wanting to get my hands on one, but always been always finding ways to avoid the desire by comforting myself that it's not all that great... but somehow just couldn't tahan anymore la so ended up buying one...
The back of it
It's Piano black color... which looks really cool only when it's clean... but after your fingers rest on it... man the amount of fingerprints that gather one it looks really dirty and annoying -_-"

So gotta keep wiping them off with a cloth.. see la maybe years later then change cover?
If you'd read my PSP Dilemma Post about the struggle on finding the right PSP, and wanting to get a 2000 model because it's safe and such.... ended up on getting a 3000~~ haha XD

2000 model cannot find d la... found also rm1200... too much to pay =(

If you'd noticed the numbering at the back is 3001, and if you looked at your PSP and wondered why it's a 3006 or something... well it's not a biggie... just that the different last number behind shows the regional code~~

3000- Japan
3001 - North America
3002 - Australia / NZ
3003 - UK
3004 - Europe
3005 - Korea
3006 - Hong Kong / Singapore
3007 - Taiwan
3008 - Russia
3009 - China

Besides...... the 3000 model ain't all that bad... kinda enjoying the beautiful screen though and it's not giving me any problems at all =]
it came with a 8GB memory stick... screen protector... and this kinda weird cover... I know the design and color doesn't really match but... can't complain la the other two he offered me were worse -_-"
and... yahahha finally, FINALLY enjoying Dissidia!!

Seriously good game la instantly addicted and hooked on to it, it's like the only game I'm playing now and abandoning the other games I have inside there... haha aiks XD
Yeah usually it'll come in a rather cool PSP box.... but for my case.
the guy gave me a Ratchet and Clank Limited Edition set for the same price...

at first I was like "ERRRRR!!!!" but then again... not THAT bad gua at least it's a limited edition set???

The PSP looks exactly the same, nothing changed....
Not like the Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core Limited Edition set where the PSP looks so cool....
ah well... at least they came along with two original UMD CD's... game and movie... haha so I guess that's of the advantage..??

whew getting tired of typing... haha but NEXT ITEM!!!
I didn't buy this, rather exchanged it with a friend for my EF 50mm f1.8 lens.... which is just a temporary exchange~~

this brand... I don't know, but I like it cause it's a film camera, and I can get full control over it manually... how??

Well see that picture, that's when the aperture is open wide at 1.8
then if I go higher to f16... it closes like that, in a way it looks cooler too =)
really don't know what brand~
but comparing a film camera lens to an EF lens to use on my DSLR it'll be impossible to fit because the mount is different in size~
the DSLR lens mount is bigger to that of a film camera lens~~
But thanks to the wonderful technology they have invented an adapter for lens like these~ =)
Just screw it in and wahlah it's ready to mount on your DSLR =)
Aperture, and focus range is all done manually...

a bit confusing at first but after getting the hang it of, it's really fun =)

the picture quality... can't really tell if it's better or not, but so far it's giving me wow results!! =)

Either way gonna be giving back to friend soon =(

Maybe he'll sell it to me??? =)
Next one... whew wei.... hahha...... a flash diffuser, was given by a friend who came back from Hong Kong, after a shooting when he noticed that I didn't have a diffuser, then he offered to bless me with one, thanks!!! =)
So... yeah now my flash has a diffuser, not bad =)

But still getting the hang of it~~~
last one last one!!!! Haha.... a new laptop bag too!!!
It came along with my new laptop bag, Targus brand, but designed for Dell... wow...
I have no doubt saying that this design is really nice and cool =)
And it's quite comfortable too =P

Whew.... I guess that's all I have to share today, thank God and the people whom have blessed me, I seriously feel so blessed, but shall use what I have to bless others too when given the chance =)

Recently my handphone also showed signs of dying and aging.... so was thinking maybe it's time to change a phone since it has served me for around 3-5 years like that, but after I sat down and talked with it, tell it if it still kept on acting up like that I'll exchange it for something better, and surprisingly now it's working fine O.O

Donno.... haha oh well =]

Life is good, and it's a new beginning for much more to rejoice and enjoy~~

God Bless~ =P
