a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down

Posted at December 14, 2007

Our office Internet line has been down for a couple hours now. Since I am the proud owner of the awesome computer-in-a-pocket that is the awesome Nokia N95, I simply connected it to my laptop and ta-dahhh!! I guess I should give thanks to Maxis 3G as well. Hmm maybe not, seeing that the small issue of over billing me is unresolved.

While on the topic of N95, David Lian told me about the app for Twitter, called Twibble. So I downloaded and installed it to my phone, and now I can update Twitter on the go using 3G :D It is teh awesome, except that my Twitter badge does not show on my blog. Don’t know why, don’t know if I am that bothered to find out why. Oh well. In any case, you can follow my tweets here: http://twitter.com/suanie . Not that I promise to update it often :D

There was an article over at Reuters Mobile Journalism about their toolkit contents, one of which is the N95. They are also using Nokia’s wireless keyboard, the SU-8W for text-based stories. I fell in love with it at first sight and had to stop myself from coming. Then I called up the Nokia store at The Curve, and found out they are selling the SU-8W for RM599. That did the trick.

My cousin from Perth was in town for a few days with her boyfriend. We met up, had lots to eat, and here’s a photo of my grandma, my cousin from Perth and my cousin from… Cheras :P Nah, he’s from Kluang, he’s working here.

Grandma and grandchildren

I’d like to say hi to my cousin’s colleague who apparently likes my blog, but thinks that some of my food recommendations are way off. LOL! As for why I always seem to have a drink in my hand, well like my cousin told you, I have a reputation to keep. It is embarrassing enough that I get tipsy after a couple of drinks these days (why, back in THOSE days I could down 4 jugs of beer without a problem… and I did and have the beer belly to show for it), so yeah my blog is the only venue where I could pretend that I am so cool, drinking and all :D

A friend of mine is looking for a shop assistant to... erm, assist at her shop @ Kuchai Lama. It is pretty much a standard shop assistant job, so you get the idea. If you know anyone or anyone who knows anyone who knows anyone who would be interested, feel free to contact me for my friend's contact number.

In case you have not heard, Dabido is heading for our shores come 28th December. He will be here until mid-January, and he would very much like to meet awesome Malaysians. If you think you are an awesome Malaysian (and you sort of know who he is), well, he would like to meet you! ‘Cos he is friendly like that. I met him when I was in Perth and we had a totally awesome and fun day out.

Maybe we organise a mini gathering in early January, ya?

Assorted Blah
