Me and my iPad

Yes I've joined the ranks of those disgusting people that has an iPad ! In fact I'm blogging from it right now. I must admit at first I wasn't that interested in it but what got me was when Apple announced that soon you can actually play Farmville on it. That was the clincher !

Since Apple has yet to launch it in Malaysia, hubby got a friend of his to buy it in US. It's pretty cool and can do most things a regular MacBook can do (except Flash related matters). The downside is that you need all these applications that needs to be purchased in order to do everything that would otherwise be free on a notebook. For example to blog with attached photos requires an app called Blogpress as the iPad version of Safari cannot upload photos. There are also lots of free apps but mostly they're games or lite editions of the paid apps.

Mine is the 3G version so we went to Maxis to get the micro sim card and a broadband account. Also I couldn't resist to have it engraved with my name when we saw that it was available at the Mybytes store in Tropicana City Mall. Soon I will also be busy accessorizing my iPad with various covers and cases but currently there's not much in the market as it's not officially here yet. So for now I have to be happy with this red patent leather case.

Can't wait for the Farmville app that's due to be out later this month and when that's available there'll be nothing that can part me and my iPad :P

Orchids

These are my current favourite things, beautiful orchids in bloom. The best thing about them are that they're indoor plants with minimal maintainance. They only need watering once a week which is perfect for a lazy bum like me. They are suppose to stay in bloom for about 6 weeks but we shall see. Well at least I'm attempting to plant something other than the stuff in Farmville! Anyways once the orchids wilt and die, I shall get new ones :)

I love them as they add colour to our living room. Can't wait to add more to the collection, maybe some white ones next. It's simple things like this that makes living in the tropics so worth the heat.

The Great Malaysian Sale

Lately I've been shopping more than usual due to the sales. It started off being just a pair of comfortable trousers from MNG recommended by Dura then it went to another pair of trousers from British India that were 50% off. Then came the tops at MNG, Gap, M&S and Zara ! I'm running out of space and now need to get rid of stuff that's just lying there.

Now I want an Ed Hardy T shirt ! Maybe I can get the hubs to get me one when he's in Seattle next month.

Fit Flops

I got myself a pair of Fitflops , yes the supposedly gym in a shoe flip flops.  Aren't they cute ???

I don't know if it will actually make my legs toned or my bum smaller but I just love the bling !
