My SIII

Have always been a loyal Blackberry fan. I love how emails get pushed to me straight away. It is hard to use  at the start due to its complexity. But once you get used to it, it is the best simple phone! Definitely love the pop-up QWERTY keypad which makes it so easy to type even without seeing.

However, when I started using Instagram with my iPod touch, I started getting envious of others with android phones or iphones. They get to upload their pictures instantly! Their camera was good and they have so many apps!!  Then, I was determined to change my phone to an android. The plan was to change my phone when I return to Malaysia in December. Change of plans and I'm back in September. That also means, time to change to android!

Was definitely eyeing on Samsung SIII for quite some time. I wasn't that interested in getting an iPhone because I already have an iPod touch. I thought that there wouldn't be much of a difference between iPhone 4s and 5. True enough! I'm glad I chose SIII!

Here are some of the reasons why I love my SIII:

First of all, my favourite app, Cymera!

 Easy to use. Just snap!

Once you are satisfied with your picture, you can edit it straight away! Look at the top bar above the picture.

 Under the beauty section, you can even enlargen your eyes!

Add details to your picture!

Or add a frame!

 Once you are done, save it and upload it wherever you want! Facebook... twitter... instagram...


Secondly, I love how they allow you to insert widgets on the main pages.

I have my calendar and to-do-list to keep me on track!

And of course, the Blogger app that allows me to upload posts anytime anywhere I want. I can view my blog at the tip of my finger!

The music player widget that takes only have of my page while I can put other app icons below it.

My essential email widget that can combine all my emails and view it as one.

Last but not least, the thing that I use the most. The notification dropdown. Something like the new ios for apple. You can just slide your finger down the screen to pull out the notifications. At the same time adjust whatever settings too. 

There are more to it that I can't fit everything here. From dropbox to colourful led lights to face recognition security, there is just so much to do with this android. Moreover, the big screen makes it all so easy to see and access. Not forgetting its HD screen resolution. Absolutely puurrrrFECT!

Ballarat

It was towards the end of autumn when we had a day trip to Ballarat! 

Staying in Unilodge does have its perks. Free trips and free movies are definitely the best parts!

Was having a pretty bad week that time. All stressed up due to assignments and making decisions. I didn't get to sleep the whole night and I just went straight for the trip. End of the day I was definitely exhausted after all the walking and lack of sleep.

Sovereign Hill is all about the gold mine. How the whole city was built and how it looked like back in 1800s. It is like a huge ass LIVE museum where you get to experience it yourself. People dress just like in the 1800s and all its settings to the very detailed are practically just how it is back then.

You would like it if you like history and museums. IF you are going during the rainy season, please don't wear white shoes! I wore white shoes and I learnt my lesson!

I was hopping from left to right just to avoid mud but in the end it still got dirty.

Me and le housemate, Vivi

The streets of Sovereign Hill - most of the shops are operating perfectly fine

This is what we call 'mendulang' LOL

Their cute bowling alley!

Me like this building cause it's purple. haha

Candle making factory

For us Unilodgers, we got in for free. But to pay to go in, hmmm... not that worth it if you don't like these kind of things. This is practically it, just that it's big. No rides or games. Just buildings and information on how  they make gold and how the city was built.

Just a little insight for those who wants to visit Ballarat!

Velvet

It was my first time going to Zouk ever since I came back to Malaysia. Have been clubbing in Melbourne almost every Friday night. Definitely do miss all my clubbing kaki in Melb! 

However, I am glad that I have my locals to bring me to Zouk! I have never been in to Velvet on a Friday night. Usually it's either Vertigo in Gardens or once in a while if I do go to Zouk, we either go into Main Room or Phuture. But never Velvet.

It was fun they said. LOL.

Well,  I guess it's okay. Music is good but the crowd.... too packed? I need to go there again to really have a fair view of it. Some things happened that night. Thus, I am not able to justify it properly.

Heads up to all the ladies:

KEEP YOUR MOBILES AND VALUABLES WITH YOU AT ALL TIMES AND NEVER LEAVE YOUR BAGS UNATTENDED!

 Not even for a second. Hold it at all times!

It is Malaysia, memang boleh. 

So anything can happen even in the so-called best club in K.L.

Now, I understand why no one carries a sling bag in K.L. clubs. -.-"

Anyway, glad I had my closests with me. Much lovessss!

My two lovely babes - FFsssssss

Cheers! My favourite drink - Jagerbomb!
