Social Media hiatus

Since I promised to blog regularly, I finally turned our bay window in our bedroom into my blogging corner where I could just sit and blog away my thoughts. No excuses na talaga. Haha.

loving the natural light coming in. I would add a big make-up mirror here also...

gadget crazy?

Are you like me? Am I hopeless?

I just noticed, so I took a pic

Beware! 

Huwag maging funny-walain. Tsk.

Colorfy App

Adult coloring books are the rage now. This is successful because maybe a lot of adults are really stressed. Lalo na dito sa Pilipinas. Paglabas mo pa lang ng gate mo ma-stress ka na. Traffic, lack of road discipline and simple garbage problem bubulaga sa iyo. I salute kung sino man ang nakaisip ng Adult coloring books. It is really a great way of de-stressing. 

Strava

I use this app whenever I want to track/record my route and its length when I'm out biking. It is very helpful, indeed. It can be used in running, walking, too.

Back to Prepaid

I gave my p999 Smart plan to my son just because I pity him that he spends two hours on the road commuting by bus five days a week. He dislikes using the MRT. Mas madalas pa daw sira. At sa sobrang siksikan, dugyot na raw siya hindi pa nakakapasok sa opisina. True story.

New baby

Our contract at Sun mobile expired last May 14. After four years, it was time to say goodbye to them. Medyo bitin kami sa services nila. You know naman the quality of internet services here in the Philippines, pang-21st slowest out of 22 countries.

Goodbye, Iphone

I called Fifth Avenue Friday morning to ask about my phone's situation. I didn't have high expectations. But the lady told me it's working na daw and they need my Apple ID to fully restore it. I was ecstatic. 

Fifth Avenue

April 22, 2015

I was praying for a miracle that my phone won't die any soon. For some, napakaliit na bagay. But for me, it's a source of stress. Remember, stress is the usual source of an illness kaya it needs attention on my part. I bought this  from my own savings last 2013 for p34,000+ for the first time. I don't buy gadgets. My husband buys it for me. In my opinion, it's not a good investment and I would rather buy jewelry which appreciates in time. Or something for my kitchen which would make me one happy cook/baker. Sobrang nanghihinayang ako.

on impulse

Last Tuesday I had this inclination to turn on my iphone which was laid to rest last January without warning even with a newly replaced battery. I charged it first and leave it to attend to my usual routine in the morning. I almost jumped for joy when I saw that the icons were back. Hindi na yung usual Apple icon. Hallelujah!

Gadgets, Errands and an almost Heart attack

I went through my routine as usual in the morning. After lunch, my husband went off first to see his Kumpare regarding their vinyl hunting hobby. I dropped off my son at the MRT station and proceeded to the mall to have my gadgets 'consult their doctors'.

Busted Ipad

I don't know what is with this year but my gadgets keep on 'falling apart' one after the other. First my Iphone last January and now the Ipad.

Greenhills part 2

It's just right to go back to the shop that tried to repair my cellphone. We paid him and we rightfully deserve to be given a just explanation why my phone broke down once more. To make the long story short, wala na daw pag-asa. Dead as in double dead na yung phone ko. Ang lungkot. Gumastos pa kami tapos ang kauuwian din pala, wala? Life is unfair.

Anyway, I didn't believe him. I told my husband for us to go somewhere else to have my phone repaired. Huwag sa Greenhills. Feeling ko kasi vultures yung iba. Maaaring sinasabi nilang wala na pag-asa pero bibilhin na lang daw nila at kakatayin baka pwede pa ibenta ang ibang parts. I'm sure gagawin nila tapos ibebenta sa mas mataas na presyo. Que horror.

Flatliner

We tried to resurrect my phone so off we(with my husband) went to Greenhills this afternoon. The problem was overcharging the battery. They replaced it for p1400.00 and ask for a labor fee of p400.00. I was ecstatic that I don't need to buy a new one. It's not my priority right now, not in the near future actually. I believe that one should not waste too much funds on gadgets alone. Nasisira din at nag-dedepreciate ang value. Not a wise investment, indeed. I bought it for p34,000. last Jan. 2013 and yet after two years, it got busted just like that. And they were telling us that once repaired, I could to sell it to them for p10,000 na lang daw. Fastbreak daw ang tawag doon. Ano, hilo?

I was able to use it while we're eating in Cafe France. I even took a shot of our merienda. Plus, I was able to send my SG pics thru email again. Imagine my disappointment when we got home while I was charging it, it went dead again. As in flatline. 

dead cellphone

Today is a sad day. Natuluyan na yung cp ko. I learned about it while we're still in SG. Sa kakagamit at lagay sa bag, plus my bag was full of other things.

For the record, ngayon lang ako nakasira ng cellphone since my Nokia 2110 days. I'm so frustrated.

RIP my Iphone 5. Sana not forever.
