Techie or tacky ?

I'm bored *yawn* , that's why I've got time to blog.

Somehow, this blogging thingy is getting me hooked... at least for the time being. Like all my electronic gadgets, I get very excited about them in the beginning and after that it gets drown in the daily routine.

I'm actually quite a techie gal, which is very much influenced by my dad. I remembered we are one of the lucky few who got an Apple computer (the monochrome screen monitor which was joined to the CPU and keyboard) . Anyway, we only played with the games most of the time. Talk about portability! I think God not only heard our prayers for something lighter, but HE also got my dad to buy us the "Popeye" and "Chief" game consoles.

Alright, alright, confession time. Actually, both my dad and I are not really that "techie" sort. It's just that we simply love buying new gadgets, but somehow we didn't fully utilise the full features of the products.

Hmm...I'm just trying hard to remember what I have splurged on over the past 10 years... actually not much, cos it's using my own money... hehe. So far, I've bought a laptop, a printer, 2 external hard disks, 3 thumbdrives, a digital camera, 2 handphones 3 PDAs with my 4th being a combination of both a phone and PDA -- a Dopod 838.

I haven't got an iPod yet, cos I've got 2 mini stereos with surround sound system in the car and everywhere in the house. Yeah, you got it right -- it's my very own BJ -- not Bens & Jerrys, but Bryan & Joel. Thus, I really cherish the peace that I have most of the time! So no need for that at the moment, BUT I don't mind if someone is to give me one! * hint* !!

Now you know why my "weekday" handbag always weighs like a sack of rice! Besides the usual wallet with 10 or so credit cards, key pouch, umbrella, glasses, tissue paper and of course my Dopod 838 , I often carry my digital camera, an external hard disk, 2 thumb drives, a book/magazine, lipstick, sanitary pads, Tiger balm oil, sweets and occasionally a water bottle. I think I need a bag with wheels!

Yes, I'm Lazy

I can't imagine I'm actually blogging! I always wonder if I would ever find the time to do it, cos I would rather be hanging out at shopping centres window shopping or staying at home ironing my clothes, which I dread most!

It was actually my sis, Jas who is so "encouraging". She creates this blog account for me with the heading - DON'T BE LAZY. Thanks, hor!

Seriously, I hate writing! So don't expect me to write grandma stories or blog religiously. I'm a believer of "a picture speaks a thousand words", so you know what to expect from me huh!

Alyson just commented that hopefully it will not be my first and last :P
