YES! Finally! Got my own iPhone (3G)!


Click here to get your iPhone 3GS today!

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Yes! Finally! Got my very own 3G iPhone today!

Okay, okay. I know, I should have waited till Starhub offered it since I'm already with the carrier. But, I can't freaking stop myself!

So, here it is. Some of the pictures, I took of my brand new iPhone. I haven't played with it much yet. Just, getting the hang of it.

At the shop, I didn't even know how to 'On' the thing. I thought, I need only to press the 'Home' button. So, I was a little embarrass when the salesgirl showed me that I need to press the 'Standby' button first before pressing the 'Home' button.

So, right. Okay, I knew that! Ha ha!




I was a bit lucky, as I was afraid there will be a long queue when I reach the Singtel shop at Sengkang-Compass point.

But, in the end I didn't really had to wait that long. My sis were there before me and she told me that the iPhone was sold there and there are still a whole lot of stocks. There were already many people there buying the phone.

The whole time I was wondering if I should go to another place at Hougang Point where there are Singtel Shop too. But, anyway, glad I decided stick to Compass Point.

So, finally after a half-an-hour wait, I finally got my iPhone. I was a bit nonchalant but deep inside I was freaking excited. I felt like shouting out loud when I finally finished the transaction.

Way, cool man. I haven't felt so excited in my whole life. And, just for buying a phone? Ha ha. That's what the iPhone are doing to me.


What about you? Did you had the same feeling as me, when buying your first iPhone?

Check out the photos!

Heh! I bought the iPhone covers too!

Got, to protect your investments!

Ha ha!

I took all of the photos with my Nokia 6210. So, it isn't that good. But, hey, still okay hmm??

I'm still charging it. This is how it looks when it's on saving mode or 'Standby' mode. So dark and eery ain't it?

Ahh ..much better when the iPhone is on. See, all of the pre-installed icons. I don't know why, it looks so appealing to me. I just wanna kiss it!


Ha Ha. I'm not a nerd okay!


I just love tech gadgets!

Check out more photos below!

A little closer look!

All you need is, touch!

I haven't yet, try the ipod. Haven't uploaded any songs or movies. But, I tried, sms-ing my other phone and it works!

They say, my Singtel line would be activated in 2 days time. But, I could already msg my other phone with a Starhub account. Hmm.. what gives.

I haven't tried messaging or calling my sis and friends yet. I'll try it out maybe later. I need to save up my old contacts!

And, I'm doing it manually one at a time.
Before that? More photos!


Okay, I know. Where's the pic of the other windows? All, the pics I've taken is the 'Home' screen. Err ..I didn't realize it until now. Ha! I'll take some more photos later on with other screens. For now, these will do.

Oh yeah. I also haven't tried the wifi or 3G connection yet. I'm still charging it and I'm not sure if I can get any wifi at this time.

Anyway, there'll be lots of time to try that later on. A lot of places I wanted to try especially at home.

I'm also wondering about the bills. How much would it cost me by the end of the month?

I bought the 8G model for SGD$348 with the $56/mth package deals. I got 200 mins outgoing calls and free incoming. I also have 500 sms.





Let's just wait and see heh?


Well, they were right. The back of the iPhone is easily smudge with your fingerprints. Lucky, I bought the iPhone covers. So, I quickly put it on. It came together with the screen cover. So, it's okay now.

I love doing the touch with the iPhone. Ha ha. Nice, feeling. And, yeah the keyboard works great!

All, you need is to confidently touch-type it. Don't worry, about mistakes and you'll be fine. I tried test-type the virtual keyboard and send myself the sms.

I was pretty quick. Maybe, because, I'm used to typing on my treo. So, it seems normal to me.

I don't know bout the others but I'm cool with it.

Check out the camera. The pics taken by the iPhone is 'Okay' I guess. Too bad, they can't take video. But, I know there are software I can use if I wanted to.

This are the 2nd products, I've bought from Apple. So far, so good. I like their design and hype!

Wish, it was a little cheaper though. I don't have a Mac because it's too freakin expensive unlike the Pc. And, anyway, I'm afraid about the compatibility with other products.

I've been a Pc user for like so long and I tried an Apple mac before borrowed from my ex-girlfriend. Kind, of cool but, a little wierd in using it.


It was freakin slow. Maybe, it wasn't the latest version. I don't know. But, I'm using an old pentium III right now and it isn't as slow as an old mac!

Anyway, I'm just glad I finally got my very own iPhone 3G. Woohooo !! Feeling great and there are tons of things I wanted to try out with the iPhone.

I want to try the wifi and 3G connections. Also, the ipod, the virtual keyboard. Which, I'm not really having problem with. I have already tried messaging to some people and it already works fine. Way cool!

So, until later updates. Good night and sweet dreams!

By the way, what you waiting for? Get your iphone today!

Ha! Apple should pay me for this free advertisement!

Good night!

iPhone finally in Singapore!

Check it out!

Finally! The much-coveted item is here in Singapore shores. After, waiting for seems like eons and eons!

But, err ..I don't think I'll be getting it..just yet. He he. It's just that, only Singtel is offering it right now. Although, looking at the price and data plans, looks pretty tempting to me. I've heard that Starhub will also be offering it's own iPhone package near the end of the year. So, if, I can wait, I'll wait!

Anyway, seems like there's still a lot of issues unresolved with the iPhone right now. Although, I'm just hoping that Singapore wouldn't be having the same technical problem like the other countries. But, still, nothing beats holding the damn thing in your own hand. I'll be checking out the Singtel shops starting this 25th Aug. I wonder, if there's going to be a long line like the other countries. Singaporean are known to be 'kiasu' (i don't really know how to explain the meaning in english) so maybe, people would like rush to be the first in line. Let just wait and see. Should be in the news by today or maybe starting tomorrow.

I think the first batch would be given to the people that sign-up to be in the list on the 22nd at exeter rd. And, starting monday, would be sold around the island storewide. It's going to be a mad rush. Me? I'll just wait for now. Like, I said. I'm tempted to buy it but I hope I can stop myself! Heeeellpppp !!!

Ha ha!

Anyway, since last Friday, I haven't been able to surf the Internet and watching my cable tv. As, suddenly, it went dead. At first, I just brush it off thinking that maybe Starhub were just doing some updating or upgrading or whatever. But, then by monday, I still can't access my Internet and I can't even watch my normal favorite shows. So, I called, the tech support and they ask me to check the cable, unscrewing and screwing the connection but to no evail. Finally, to make the story short they send somebody to come over my house to take a look. So, the guy came and after checking the connectivity he finally discovered that, somehow the main cable connections outside my house were kind of loose. Well, it was kind of wierd as I didn't really had any kind of connection problem before. So, I was kind of surprised that was the only reason. Anyway, finally, today, I can surf as per normal and finally get to blog about it right now.

In any case, I did manage to get connected using somebody wifi near my home with the Eee pc. I use it to surf and cleared my email. Hail! To the Eee pc! It saved me from complete boredness when it matters most. Ha! And, I was thinking of selling it before. Well, anyway, like I've said, time and time again. You never know what's going to happen in the next mins. So, live the life you want to live and don't be chained by circumtances!

I've also learned that we should NEVER say never!

In life, strange things happened. So, anything could be possible in this life. Never say, never. And, give it all you've got!

That's all for now. Cheers!

Malaysia should open up to compete in globl market

Malaysian PM vetoes call to open university to non-Malays
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia's Premier Abdullah Badawi has vetoed a call to allow other races to enrol in a university that only admits Muslim Malays and indigenous groups, a proposal which caused a furore and a student protest.
FULL STORY »

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

What de fck!?

What gives man ... Frankly, I'm a little ashamed as I'm a Malay myself although, I'm a Singaporean. I have a Singapore mom and my dad originally from Melaka, Malaysia.

I understand that the Malays there want to protect the Bumiputra's right. But, I think it's counter-productive. Why won't they open up the University for all Malaysians?

Malaysia, should open up. In this age of globalization and opening up to foreign markets. How are the Malaysians going to improve themselves and compete with the rest of the world?

The other day, I read that even the Malaysian soccer league are going to kick out the foreigners and instead the reason given that to give the local more chances of playing. Of course, some are saying it's because of money problem. Well, that could be one of the reason but really, we need foreigners to improve our own standard of football. Every soccer league in the world has them. Why can't the Malaysian League?

Back to the problem of not accepting non-Malay, non-Muslims into the University. I mean, how are they going to improve inter-racial harmony if they create this kind of segregation. I remember a verse in the Al-Quran that states that God creates man with different cultures so that they may learn about each other. Aren't they going against God wishes this way?

There's even protest by their own students. Ha! I'm just wondering what their reason could be. Are they the student themselves afraid of competition? Of losing out to deserves non-Muslims and Malays? Are they that stupid? What kind of things do they teach in this University anyway, so much so that they're afraid in losing out.

All, I know is that, only those who deserves it are able to go to Universities. I know, I'm not intellectually competent to be accepted into them. I wonder, if I was a Malay in Malaysia, can I buy my way into them. Makes, one wonder.

Anyway, click here to read more on the news update. Kind of get you thinking about the future of Malays in that country.

Happy Birthday to me!

Happy birthday to meee ..happy birthday to meee ..happy birthday to meee meeeeeee ! Happy birthday to meeeeee !!! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee .... why de heck i'm so happy about? I'm just a step closer to my grave ... haha ..

Well, well. 36 years of ups and down. Yeah, never thought, I'll still be alive right now. So much had and is happening right now. Not, just my world but the world around me. Such is life. It ain't over till it's over. So, I received a birthday card from one of my friend enjoying himself in London. I wonder if he's reading my blog right now. Anyway, he told me soon I'll be 40 so like they say 40 is the age that could truly change your life. And, it's up to you where your direction would be for maybe the next 25 years or so.

It makes me think. The more I think about it, the more I'm sure that there's nothing really for me to change the way I am. Cause, I've been true to myself all through this years. I might have change a bit but that's kind of normal. Everyone, change through the years. Maybe, a little more experience and more down to earth. Because, we have seen the world. We know what the world can do to a man. It hasn't really change. I haven't really change. I'm still the old me and in the next 4 years when I'll be turning 40, I'll still be the same. I won't change. I've got nothing to change. I like the way things are right now. In fact, this couple of years, things have been a little quiet. There's nothing really for me to look forward to and there's nowhere that I wanted to go to. So, I'm just hanging it there right now. Just, minding my own business.

Yeah, that's me. Although, been a bit kind of boring with life right now. But, as I say, the more I think about it. There's nothing really that surprises me anymore. Man, are the same since the day we started walking on this earth and they won't change. There still will be wars. People fighting each other for land, oil, power, money or whatever. That's their life. That's the kind of life they want to live in.

For me? I'm just a plain simple man. Just minding my own business. Just doing the mundane things everyday. Working to put food on the table. Yeah, I won't trade anything for this simple life. It's too precious for me. Freedom. Yeah, that's what I have right now. I don't really have anything to worry much.

Well, anyway, it's kind of late and I'm kind of sleepy. Tomorrow or rather today is a new day for me. Ha ha. Hope, things won't change. I just want to be and stay happy.

Peace .. out!

P.S. Nothin lust forever eh?

P.P.S Oh yeah, before I forget. My country is also celebrating it's national day today. haha! Have fun watching the fireworks today!
