I LOVE MY APPLE!!

This post is specially for the blogging competition that is being hosted by Nuffnang. In case you have no idea what it is, you can click here




Anyway,this competition is actually about one's love for Apple products. No, not literally a real apple.

But, It's this one!

Anyway, if you still have no idea what are the differences between the two pictures above, you can actually head to Apple's website(online store) here



Now, I love Apple products, because they're not only trim and sleek(everyone wants something that looks nice, and slim right?), but have functions that are the eighth wonder of the world, so much that heads will turn when they see you carry an Apple product that never fails to make anyone, look like a prodigy. I'm not kidding, it's not some copy and paste thing.

I for one, have always been envious of whoever who owns an Apple product. The products are simply irresistible, that I feel like snatching from those who own them.

Anyway, enough talk about the products as a whole. I need to touch on the point of the post, and that is, my favourite Apple product.


Apple products range from a large variety from a large range of MacBooks(Air, Pro, Mini),

to Imac,

iMac


And lastly, to Ipods!

Apple iPod


Among all those stunning products, I have to vote for the 'Ipod Touch' as my favourite Apple product!

(Taken from wikipedia.org)

The iPod touch has the iPhone's multi-touch interface, with a physical home button off the touch screen. The home screen has a list of buttons for the available applications. All iPod touch models have included the applications Music, Videos, and Photos (collectively duplicating the standard functions of the iPod classic), iTunes (providing access to the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store), Safari, YouTube, Calendar, Contacts, Clock, Calculator, and Settings. Later models added Mail (accessing POP/IMAP/SMTP e-mail), Maps, Stocks, Notes, and Weather, which could also be added to the earlier models with the purchase of a software upgrade. Direct links to web sites can be added to the home screen by the user.

The iPod touch is equipped with Wi-Fi 802.11b/g, and, like the iPhone, includes the Safari browser and a viewing client for YouTube. The device's Wi-Fi capabilities can also be used to buy music from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store. Also like the iPhone, the iPod touch currently does not support the 802.1X authentication method, making connectivity to certain private networks impossible, even when authorized. The iPod touch 2.0 Software Update will support WPA2 Enterprise with 802.1X authentication.


Though this heavenly product seems flawless, it is apparently not so true.


It lacks some of the iPhone's features: access to any phone network, an internal speaker, a microphone, a camera, physical buttons for volume control, and Bluetooth capability. The iPod touch uses software-based volume controls which require users to double-tap the home button, bringing up an on-screen slider.



But, who can resist the temptation of owning such a magnificent product? It's slim and definitely lighter than the Iphone. So if I don't love it, who will?

Singapore SuperHero Blog-Tastic Contest!

I've just spent 7 hours on this post. This post is about a contest that sends bloggers searching for their thinking hats. This contest is none other than "Singapore SuperHero Blog-tastic Contest"! Photobucket

Singapore Movie Fiesta 08 in collaboration with nuffnang is calling out to Singaporean bloggers to blog about what qualities and attributes Singapore's very own Super Hero should have.

I know I won't win this contest because this whole story sounds really far-fetched. But I guess it didn't hurt to set my mind to do some creative thinking!

Any way, I would just like to say, that this story was created solely by my imagination. And it's disgusting, i guess. And the drawings are pathetic, but I guess that adds to the whole stupid story. Hahaha. Here goes...



In the bustling streets of Woodlands, lives a petite little girl, by the name of Oi Ting Oose. Oi Ting Oose is a very quiet girl, too quiet for a 16 year old. Because of that, she never had any friends, except her pet dog, Rufus.

People simply found her weird.

First, being that she always carried Patrick the Starfish everywhere she wentPhotobucket.

When asked why she was so glued to it, all she said was, “he’s like my boyfriend”.

Second, being that she has this habit of picking her nose all the time.

dig nose

And instead of wiping it off or something, she collects it in potion bottles. disco bruce morphing potion

And last, being that she lives in a cardboard box! box

No one in school liked her because she was a very odd person. She was often bullied and no one came to help her. People even made fun of her name. Malays called her “Tikoose/Tikus” (mouse) and Chinese called her “pig noose”. She was always seen crying in the girl’s toilet, hugging her Patrick starfish.

It was a real pity though. Because Oi Ting Oose was a very intelligent girl. She scored straight ‘A’s and was also a greeNE Ambassador for the school. She took care of all the greeneries in school and was Head of all projects that linked to Nation Education. And that she was ugly. She was famous for all the wrong reasons. She made heads turn because she wasn’t drop-dead gorgeous, but because she was horribly ugly!

She was so ugly that she made Cinderella’s stepsisters feel pretty! But she was an innocent girl.

But this small, innocent girl in the day was terribly different at night.

Why? Because Oi Ting Oose was no ordinary girl. She had SUPER POWERS.

See, when Oi Ting Oose was young, She accidentally fell into a nuclear reactor, when her Mom visited Iraq during the ‘Iraq-Kuwait’ war.

Miraculously, She came out unharmed. And over the years, she discovered something magnificent. The "booger" that she picked out of her nose, was MAGICAL.

She was so intrigued by it, that she actually took up Witchcraft to have a better understanding.

Through the better understanding of this “mucus magic”, Oi Ting Oose also picked up a few spells, one of them is to make her prettier.

And from then on, her life changed, so did her name.

Her nickname became: Lady Sovereign of Slime.

She remained the weird child in the day, but when night time came, she transformed into a gorgeous lady with skin tight black leather costume. Photobucket

She looked marvelous.

Being an intelligent girl, she decided to be Singapore’s Super Hero and avenge her mom who died trying to save fellow Singaporeans from Dr. Singland and Spittyman.

Dr. Singland

Photobucketwas a nasty man who manipulated Singaporeans into believing that Singlish was the “in thing”. He used many techniques and strategies such as propagandapropaganda

and briberyBribe.

And unfortunately, Singapore fell into his trap, after gaining independence in the 1960s.

Spittyman who was his partner in crime, did nasty things as well.

Photobucket

He sends out transmissions every now and then to brain-wash people to spit. The transmissions have been sent to all parts of Singapore, influencing people to spit.Radio Waves 2小印度大門口

Elderly people in Kopitiams and those living in Little India have been strongly affected by this horrendous act.

Anyway, through her intelligence and witchcraft, Oi Ting Oose overcomed her power way better than any Super Hero could. She could control slime and traveled using it, like how Frozone does in Incredibles.

frozone 2

And she even created a belt to hang her potion bottles of (hardened mucus) slime as ammunition for her best ever creation, which is the ‘Slimo-beam 4100’Water Gun.

It has two functions:

1. Shoots slimy webs over people who spit on the floor.

2. Spray slime that diffuses into people’s blood and make them speak proper English!

You must be wondering why no plans were made to kill Dr. Singland and Spittyman. Well, it’s because they’ve been caught, but have escaped and are missing, just like Mas Selamat! But she’s trying her best!

So, this Superhero has to be made to real life in order to assassinate these EVIL people!



The End!



Well, I hoped you enjoyed it!
