My lucky draw prize

I have just attended my company annual dinner last Friday. That's correct! On Friday the 13th. But, nothing had gone bad huh.

This year, my lucky number is 117. My number was being called during the 1st round of the lucky draw. I have chosen the prize number of 94 and here you go...


However, i did not expect anything nice from ALBA T__T (my other colleague got a Cerruti watch, damn it).

Today, I collected the prize from the committee and it has a nice white color box:




On the inside.... nothing special about the watch except for the water resistant up to 5 bars. It has no date as well.




The funny is that the watch was being purchased on 25 May 2008 with less than 3 months warranty period left... wtf.



There is one more thing... can you spot it?



Anyway, so far my record is 66.6% i.e. going back without empty handed for the past 3 years... hah hah

I bought a new Nokia E71

I bought a new Nokia smartphone ie the hot selling E71 using my previous month paycheck >.<




This phone is loaded with a lot of cool stuffs like Wifi, GPS (I still trying to install the Malsing map running on the Garmin Mobile XT but not successful), instant messenger and push emails.

Now I can check the traffic conditions at ITIS's Real Time Traffic Video-Streaming, surfing the net and checking emails while on the go.

Funny Nokia Phone

This Nokia phone is really weird and funny. Just take a look at the below pictures.





I am not sure the model of this phone. It has those PDA kind of stylus to navigate the menu on the screen. It took me few minutes to figure out on how to use the stylus. I used the stylus to touch on screen few times (so stupid... -.-III)



Finally, I found out that there is a hidden touch pad behind the keypad. Haiiiii.... I just need to flip the keypad out la... LOL

THIS PRESIDENT IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANYBODY IN THE PAST

The Obamamobile: New presidential limo is unveiled - and it can withstand rocket and chemical attacks. It's official call sign is Cadillac One, but it will always be known as the Obamobile.

But his Secret Service agents have already been familiarising themselves with the machine they call 'The Beast', built by General Motors in Detroit and based on a Cadillac chassis.

The company refuses to give precise details of how it will perform its primary purpose - protecting the president.

But bulletproof glass and armourplatingare standard throughout and the car is hermetically-sealed to withstand chemical weapons.

As with previous presidential limos it is packed with electronic communication systems to allow Mr Obama to keep in contact with the outside world.

One personal touch will be the remote-controlled ten-CD changer on which he can play his favourite artists, said to include Stevie Wonder and Bob Dylan.

Despite the protection afforded by Cadillac One, the Secret Service will be taking no chances when Mr Obama is sworn in as the 44th president. A three-mile security perimeter will be thrown around the U.S. Capital, with no vehicles allowed inside, to prevent a car bomb attack.

The Beast: Cadillac One, Barack Obama's new presidential limo - also known as the Obamamobile.
