The Decisive Moment

There is so much going on these few days (probably weeks). And I have no idea how I am going to survive this. Anyway, my to do list is so simple, yet so complicatied...

1. Due date: 5 July 2011. Research presentation.
OMG. The NMMR not done, my analysis half way done, still waiting for my mentor to further guide me on the research on what else that I can do, and presentation slide is a bit...Not well done. But then again, I don't feel like really care for it. No matter how bad I did, I won't get penalised or anything. But then again, its Dr Siti we are talking about...Hope she doesn't interfere much in the presentation or NMMR thingy...

2. Due date: Unknown. FRP Posting.
Its been a year. Its fast. Its scary. But it is here again. Now that I know where Siew Ling got (bad in a way), and rumors that I got Sabah, still a bit scary. And don't even know where I get posted officially. If Sabah, means I may need to appeal... Sigh... But first thing first...Must get to know where I am suppose to go soon...

3. Due date: Before the new FRP posting.
Yes. I jumped ship. Turn to another super gigantic smartphone. But then again, the price is the same as Sony Erricsson ARC, at much better performances. Thus, I have to do the inevitable, even though I love the Arc's design, camera and screen so so so much...But still, I expected the S2 to be at least RM400 more expensive.
Booked my Samsung Galaxy S2 about a week ago at Maxis center, and still haven't get it yet. Hope that I can get it asap.

4. Due date:  15 July 2011. SKT form.
Not so top on my priority list. But still very important part of my life as government servant. Need to complete my SKT form and hand it over soon. Real soon. But probably after my research presentation.

5. Due date: 4 July 2011. Alibi.
OMG. What can I say here? To tell people where I am supposed to be at where I am not there.

Arggh...

New phone?

Thinking of getting a new phone.

My old trustworthy Nokia 5800 Xpress Music has been serving me well. Superb music capability, great Ovi Map, great Garmin (pirated though...Shh...) best speaker from a phone, and a great memory with it. But the screen got cracked (though still functional). I am ithching for a new phone after seeing the new phone.


Ever heard of Sony Erricsson Xperia Arc? Saw their display units during a promo period in City Square. And believe me, it WOWed me. The screen is the best part of it. I dare to say the colour and brightness is better than even the iPhone 4. And comes in a bigger (MUCH MUCH BIGGER) screen estate. Good for watching my movie...Wahahaha... Also, another thing that caught my eyes is the design. Its Arc. Really. The back part of the phone is actually curved. And it looks very sexy indeed. I tried to hold and play around with the display unit that day. It really is light. And the screen is DAMN DAMN NICE. Bravia engine might have played its part there. Meanwhile, it is not laggy as I thought it would be (As most of the android phone that I encountered with is slightly laggy). This baby is smooth! Smooth criminal I would say! Damn! I would really want to own it at that time, if I could!

Also comes with the new Xperia Arc is the new image sensor, dubbed Exmor R. Tried to take pictures in dark condition. And it beat my Nokia by miles! Not to the par of night vision sensor, but still very impressive for a camera on a phone.

The package seems to comes with plenty of bonus free gift, including wireless headset, HDMI (!!) cable, in-car charger. Can either get it at Maxis @ RM1499 with 24 month contract (for RM98 per month) or RRP RM 2099 (should be much lower and even lower for AP).

No money though. I wish I could!

Other subspeciality that no one really mind: Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), 512mb (380mg accessible) RAM (a bit low), and a relatively poor battery life....

Now, should I or should I not get it?
