the entry about glorified servantry and inedible pomes



i'd be damned if i had to pay another prodigious amount for pittance of onion slices and some miserable carrot shavings sloshed in a suspicious, viscous korean sauce. it's my maid's b-day, so i decided to pack her ass and mine and have a little us time in a cosy korean barbeque restaurant up in dempsey hill. here's the rest of the spoils that we ordered on our plate to celebrate her coming-of-age.








if the saying "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree" is anything to go by, then my room must have been the tree, figuratively speaking that is. given my propensity for recklessness and adventure, in one fell swoop, i'd decidedly replaced most of my existing peripherals, useful ones and paraphernalia alike, with new apple logo-ed devices. my hovel is now dotted with the notoriously-illuminated bitten-pome logos in the form of a desktop, a laptop, a phone and a mp3 player.


now you see it... (my old imac g5)


 now you see the newer one (with the accompanying macbook air)




my new nano in electric blue



now that i've got all my gadgetry back in working order, i can return to blogging as per normal. oh apple, apple, how do i love thee? finally, the return of some normalcy, thanks to the chanel brand of tech products. got apple?


indulging in a little cam-whoring.

Speechless... Dumbfounded... The Apple family happens to be in my wish list for Santa this coming X'mas! And here you have them for yourself already. Envy! ^^ Do you know that you can save around $300 if you ask a student to help you buy them under the Education Scheme? I hope you did ~

(z) some of them were prezzies, and the new imac g5 was actually a free replacement, thanks to the warranty validity.

(ptmd) but i think the shadey-s look nicer on you, convincing much?

(763092) yeah, that's what i did, but sheesh, i am supposed to keep it under wraps! ^^

Apple warranty is only a year for all products. unless u pay like few hundred bucks to extend the warranty? So ur iMac spoilt within a year? anyway u could have asked me to help u buy the mac air and nano, you can get them a lesser price....Cos I work in Apple.

don MUCH MUCH MUCH me. irritating!

iruffcookiedough said...

(rex) well, she's pretty camera shy, but i think you can pretty much make out how her hand looks like from one of the photos. ;p

(bryan) i bought the apple care extended warranty, and coincidences of all coincidences, my desktop actually broke down near the end of the 3rd year, basically the validity of the warranty, so i guess that was a good sign.

you telling me you work with apple AFTER i've bought those products, that's a bad sign, i guess. =(

(ptmd) irritating much? see you this saturday yah!

PATRICIA PESH said...

iruffcookiedough said...

(bryan) ok, will swing by soon to get other peripherals. will you be over at wheelock?

(ck) hoax!!!!!

(singapoor) i missed it! my friend promised to watch with me on the last day, but he backed out at the last minute. so i guess i am stuck with watching it on youtube, hopefully!

iruffcookiedough said...

(piggiewiggie) it's not so much the 4d that i struck. actually the macbook air was a gift from my dad, the iphone was free with a contract with singtel, the imac g5 was a replacement for my old comp which was faulty. the only cash i paid for was the ipod nano. =p

(pesh) long time no see! well, i might be getting the green ipod nano too, so... you know! hehe

LOL. Come on, you seriously think that I will put a porn link there? What happen if your little nephew stumble upon his uncle's blog and found a link to adult stuff?!!!

Anyway, the Broadway one is way better. If you have a chance to visit NY, make sure you take the time to go and watch.

anyhow, you missed half of your life des! Haha! Avenue Q rocks! :D

iruffcookiedough said...

(ck) well, that will be dependent on whether i do plan to go back serving on the miles high club once again. it has actually crossed my mind: flying. so if that does pan out, i might be able to catch it at NY!

(kenneth) about the doctors, i am not too sure, but they've definitely kept my pockets empty, for sure. =]

(singapoor) you had to, didn't you? haha, dun worry, i will go for the reruns in future, i am sure that will be.

(bryan) pls enlighten me. is it the one at cine?
