Nexus 7

At first the craze was on handphones.
Then it moved on to handphones with cameras.
Then it was handphones with higher megapixels camera and video recording.
Then it was the ipod, smartphones, androids.....
Now, it is all about the tablet.

Yesterday Hot UK Deals posted an offer for Nexus 7 32GB tablet for 179 pounds. A 16GB was worth 159pounds. So, the 32GB Nexus 7 was really hot stuff yesterday. It was not available for order from Carphone Warehouse.

I never wanted a tablet till yesterday. The interest in Nexus 7 made me do some research on tablets and I must say, after reading and watching a few youtube videos, I looked at my tiny Acer minibook on my study table and thought "A tablet would be better and so much lighter"

LOL

Then I started recalling when I was so happy to get my salary to buy my first laptop which was the Acer minibook. I was happy I could carry it in my handbag, like how Paris Hilton carries here chihuahua in her bag, instead lugging around with a not so pretty computer bag. To be honest, the Acer laptop was only light to carry in the handbag if I didn't pack the portable charger and socket into the same bag. But, what is the point of a powerless laptop, right? In addition to the weight issue, my laptop speakers has started giving me problems and it gets really heated up after using it for a while.

Hah, I am like writing out points as to why I should get a tablet. Just because I looked up tablets, Google ads on most sites I go to advertise tablets now, which makes it even more irresistible  Even my own blog advert is advertising about Nexus 7!

Postitive, light bulb thought: Maybe a tablet would make me read more scientific journals for my research?

Oh, there was a bit of snow today in Glasgow.




Boneless Chicken

This picture was taken by my dad's best friend on one of his travels. I guess it is a way to catch people's attention. Boneless chicken, anyone? ;P

Bourbon biscuits

I have never heard of Bourbon biscuits until I watched Food Network channel here. It is my favourite channel to watch!

So, the chef on tv was making ice ceeam cake with bourbon biscuits. I wanted to make the cake hence I added the biscuits into my online Asda shopping cart. Yes, my housemates and I get our groceries delivered right into our living room from Asda. We found that Vegetables and fruits were fresher than Aldi and Asda's price was guranteed cheaper than Sainsbury, Tesco and Morrisons.

Anyway, back to the biscuits. I received it but I never gotten around to buy the other ingredients to make the cake. Hence, one day I opened the packet and tried it. It was really good.

I just ate some because i was so hungry as it is late and I had an early dinner. I know i should have a green apple instead;)


NHS

So today I was at the doctors again. I received my blood test results and I am perfectly healty.

The doctor said she will give me a referral letter to see a specialist... How long do I have to wait for the letter?

6-8 weeks!!!

Crazy........

Melanie C

I used to be a fan of Spice Girls.
I found these two videos of Mel C singing and Baby Spice duet with Mel C singing 'I know him so well".
I felt the songs were perfect to listen in December -xmas, winter, cold, dark
