i hope i've completed my assignment for the samsung yp-t10 trial.

--

When I was given the Samsung YP-T10 mp3 player, it looked tiny. Being a clumsy oaf, I was afraid I might drop it. So far, I’ve taken good care of it. What kind of a Samsung wizard will I be if I don’t?


My thoughts on the mp3 player:

In terms of sound quality, the audio is super clear. I was impressed. I’ve never used a Samsung player before and right now, I’m in awe. The Bluetooth headset allows me to listen to my music without the hassle of my earphones wires. In addition to that, I thoroughly enjoy sharing songs with my friends through the bluetooth feature. Not only was it easy to use, it was fast and efficient.

As for the design, it’s simple yet chic. The mp3 player slender body fits perfectly on my palm. It’s not too small and not too big. The size is just nice and it’s lightweight. I love that it’s so light that I can put it in my pocket.

The lighted navigation buttons reminded me of the mooninites from the American animated television series, Aqua Teen Hunger Force. It looks something like this.


Kinda cute, don’t you think?

However, there are some cons. For starters, I had problems with the USB cable. It was hard for me to take out the cable after I’m done transferring files or charging the mp3 player. I was afraid I might spoil it or something. Am I the only one facing this problem?

Other than that, I was annoyed with the fingerprint stains on the screen. It was unsightly especially since I have sweaty palms and I kept leaving prints all over the screen. Even after wiping it clean, it will reappear once I touch the screen again.

I think this can be solved via two ways. One, to have a protective layer over the mp3 player. Kind of like a silicone screen protector of some sort. Two, instead of the current plastic exterior, the surface can be changed to one that does not leaves fingerprint stains. This is just a suggestion.

Cons aside, I really am digging the Samsung YP-T10 mp3 player albeit the fingerprint stains. The quality is top-notched. The screen is bright and clear. I’m easily amused by the dog moving about the screen. It’s simple to use. Even the user manual is just a few pages. I guarantee everyone

My brother is already eyeing on my player. I don’t think I’ll be surprised if he decides to borrow it from me.

kl was kl. nice substitute for bangkok. for now. surprisingly no bags. just clothes and shoes. whee! i did some photo taking. i'll load it up on my flickr page. it's HERE. i've got all kinds of random shots. it's pretty empty now. with my new ricoh reddish-pink camera which is made of awesomeness, if i might add - i will go clickety click. most of them will be photos of my cats or clouds. cause one, my cats are phenomenal. two, i love clouds and the shape they make. if only they were as fluffy.

here's a shot. very manhattan-ish, i think.


oh ya, thats the view from my hotel room.

the samsung yp-t10 mp3 player is made of so much win. I LOVE IT! seriously. it's light. sound quality is fab. i think it's pretty slick. one thing i hate though. fingerprint stains. other than that, i think it rocks. so far, i think the battery life is pretty solid. it's been my constant companion since i got it.

here's me posing with my new gadget.


i think it's garnered quite a few fans. heh. i'm thinking of video taping the response of friends who are digging it. kinda like the geek in the pink video. shall credit mr mraz. oh, i can get discounts for those of you who intend to get it. how much? i'm not sure yet. but i have a feeling it'll be good.

nothing fancy for my holidays. my aunt and granny are staying over for the month while my parents are away for haj. it's been interesting. i realise i'm quite bossy. especially when it comes to conserving the energy. switch off the lights puh-leeze! argh.


we did went for an after-exams party held by the nus kids. it was fun. i don't dig the scene but i love to dance. ok. well, not exactly dancing. more like flapping my hands around. basically, moving. i think i make a funny dancer. it's dark anyway. and there's far too many sexy dancers. gah!

i've encountered what i like to term, music enlightenment. i've never been so excited to discover new bands for quite sometime now. it's like. one band after the other. the past few weeks has been fruitful. the amount of new acts i'm digging = YAY! like totally. i can't believe i took such a long time to realise. man, i'm slow. i feel so ketinggalan zaman (translation: behind time/era). but still.

from patrick wolf to duke special. through duke special i heard neil hannon's voice. amazing shit. deep, deep voice. then, i realise he's got a band called the divine comedy. oh-so-quirky. HEARTS! just recently, i stumble across beirut. natalie portman was talking about them on trl. zach condon is a genius. i am floored. so young, such talent. i'm impressed.


there's nothing sexier than a guy with an accordion. for me at least. THE perfect musical instrument.

EXAMS = OVER

the pubic speaking paper was alright, i guess. but marketing. three, no. make it six words. NOT ENOUGH TIME, MR DA SILVA! seriously. i was scrambling. well, i wasn't alone. cause most of my classmates were shaking their heads after the paper, complaining they didn't finish their paper. ugh. WHY?! i dig this module. i hope it'll turn out good.

our way of celebrating our post exam status is by paying a visit to orchard road when its raining cats and dogs. my shoes and socks were soaked. why? cause i've got holes. but everything was all fun and dandy. even though i was coughing like crazy. my lungs hurt and i've got a splitting headache.

but wait!

i 'met' jim/john! the photo won't work. i'll get it up someday. sigh.

my phone died. return to life. and died again yesterday. farewell, polly jean. i love thee. right now, i have a new baby. she's called PJ. a tribute to my fallen phone. isn't she lovely?


oh ya, i think i'm getting a free samsung yp-t10 mp3 player. tomorrow?


can't wait to try it out. you guys will be able to try it out too. i'm sharing the love. well, sorta.
