No haul posts for 3 months?! Sorry! Although, I did getmyself few stuff those months but wasn’t able to do a post because I amobviously busy! I bought alot of different skincare stuff (because my skin isgetting worse!) and few makeup things. Plus, I also got myself a new cellphone!
Darn it. Forgot to take a pic. This picture was taken from Yugatech.com
Yipee! Although it is just a blackberry curve since I can’t afford to buyexpensive cellphones. Maybe, someday?!
Anyway, I did a little shopping last Friday (last day of my1st semester) and I decided to share it with you.
I went to Etude House mainly because some of my fans infacebook requested Etude House as additional prizes for my giveaway. As I wasbrowsing around, I was like, “Omg, i don’t have enough money to buy 2 petitedarling lipstick” since 1 will costs me Php 278. My actual budget for EtudeHouse for that day is only Php 1,000 (kasi yuuungg cellphone eee, wala na kong pera wahaha!) but I spentmore than my budget. I spent like php 1, 200+ (for EH alone) I guess so Iwasn’t able to buy 2 lipsticks. Pls don’t kill me my readers, I will try to addsomething for package 5 promise! EH gave me a mask as a freebie for my purchase.
Then I went lookingfor Elf duo Blush and Bronzer but they’re not available anywhere. I dunno why.I even asked my sister to look for blush and bronzer on Greenbelt but it is outof stock too. Why oh why?
The two elf in the picture is a blush in peachy keen and aneyebrow kit. I already did a review on eyebrow kit, and it was actually my firstever blog post! Wow! For the blush, this reminds me alot of Ever Bilena inBrown. I will do a review on the blush soooon!
During that day also, I bought a back case for my cellphone kasi I'm the most careless person! (Kaya tuloy nanakawan LOL!)
Okay, I'm not a fan of ANGRY BIRDS! Honestly, I was not happy with this case. I was looking for a girl-y looking backcase and I saw something with Gold design at the store. I was about to buy that when my boyfriend stopped me from buying it. Then, he told me to buy this one instead. After a little talk, I decided to give in. Okay, ikaw na! Ikaw na panalo. LOL! When I came home, I was really disappointed and promised that I won't ever listened to him again. HAHAH! Just kidding! In fairness, the case wasn't bad at all, I just don't like the color. That's all. :) Btw, I got it in SM Manila at Cellboy for Php 350.00.
This next thing, I did not purchased that day but I was just happy to share it with you because..... it is PURPLE! LOL! Purple is 2nd most favorite color *next to pink*
I purchased this bag from my classmate for Php 800. It is not an original Jansport bag but I swear, the color is very beautiful in reality! It wasn't a plain purple color. I don't know how to explain it but it is a purple with blue sheen to it. Very pretty. Plus, it's fun wearing the same bag with my College best buddies. Astig lang pag magkakasama kami ;p
What else do I need to share with you? I think that's all Watch out for my next reviews probably today or tomorror or the day after tomorrow ;p
Oh please please don't forget to join my giveaway contest!IT WILL END ON OCT 25 SO PLEASE HURRY AND JOIN
Hi, I’m back again with another non-beauty related post. Sorry for posting another non-beauty related things here but I am trying to make my blog as informative as possible, in all aspect ^_^
Recently, my friend shared a very nice application for my cellphone since we do have the same unit. For my new followers, the phone that I’m currently using is Nokia E5. I really love this phone because it’s cheap and it’s so me. Anyway, I would like to share this application to you.
ISMS APPLICATION
(works for Symbian S60 phones, click here to know if your fone is symbian s60)
You can download the application at Nokia Ovi Store.
This applications offer thread messaging style for sms like those on iphones and blackberry. Threaded messaging displays both sides of a text messaging (SMS) conversation on one screen, in chronological order. In this way it also groups messages from the same person together.
It also supports drag and drop, Fake SMS, schedule your messages (this means that you can time stamp your messages and the message will be dispatched at that particular time which you have already set. That can be quite a useful feature if you tend to forget things) syncing with Nokia’s default SMS manager, autostart and display them in speech bubbles.
Hi, as promised this post is about the new phone that I got, but this will be a long post. I’ll be telling a very long story of myself so please, if you’re not interested, feel free to skip the paragraph with red fonts.
note: I’ll be showing and reviewing my Nokia E5, but I’ll just review it on how I see it on my own perspective and own language hahaha. I’m not very knowledgeable in technical terms for cellphone but hope this helps you. Feel free to search the google if my review is not enough. ;)
But first I would really like to show you my old fone (which I use for my TM simcard). It’s from Sony. I would highly recommend this fone, but too bad.. i believe it’s already obsolete. Hahah! Anyhow, it’s a good fone, but still, there are lots of things you can’t do with this.
This is a very old fone, sorry hahaha! ;)
My sony has a very nice features. I really like the uniqueness of the Music Player. And the Camera is actually good. You can adjust it in many ways you like. The casing is also very nice. The back is made of rubber. Plus, it has a wifi. Though, web browsing is not as good as most cellphones nowadays.
Left: Nokia E5, Right: Sony Ericcson W960
Anyway, I was actually planning on buying a new phone for my Sun Cellular (before, I was using Nokia N73 for my sun.) I was eyeing for an Iphone that time, so I have to save my allowances so I could atleast give a share for the phone and rest will be paid by my father.
But, an incident we least expect happened. The bank where my father keeps his money was shut down. I know you know what bank that is. My dad was extremely sad and depressed that time, and so, I can’t find any courage to ask money anymore.
That’s why I look for another alternative... a cheaper cellphone where my savings would just be enough. I also decided to buy a phone that is not sliding since sliding phone is not as durable as the non-sliding one. I would also like to try qwerty fone since I never had qwerty fone before.
At first, I was eyeing on Blackberry Gemini Curve 8520 because it cost only Php 10,000-11,000 at Greenhills shopping center. But my oldest sister, who is using the same fone, told me that Blackberry is a boring phone unless you are going to register for BBM. I was like, “Sino naman i-BBM ko?” I even asked my boyfriend to buy Blackberry fone so I could BBM him (in case I got one for myself) but he refuses since he wants iphone for himself. Ennkk. My oldest sister told me that if it’s not only for his boyfriend who happens to be in the U.S (and using Blackberry also) she wouldn’t buy blackberry, instead she would buy Nokia E71 (my other sisters’ fone, Em). *To all users of Blackberry users please don’t shoot us! We all have different opinions! and we differs in lifestyle.. Hahah*
So, the truth is I was searching the net all day and found out about this Nokia E5. So, yes, I went to Greenhills and tried Nokia E71 and Nokia E5. The sales lady was discouraging me to buy Nokia e5 and told me that it will be phased-out soon. But I just ignored that, since I won’t be selling my cellphone naman agad. I want something I could use for a very loooong time. So, in the end I decided to buy Nokia E5 over E71 for 3 reasons: better features, better camera and Php 2,000 cheaper! Would you believe that? I think I made a right decision. I even asked my sister (who is using Nokia e71) to try my new fone and she said, “Palit nalang tayoooo?” hahaha!
Since Nokia E5 is cheaper there are some things Nokia Company needs to sacrifice. I would say Nokia E5 looks way cheaper than Nokia E71 since nokia e5 is made of plastics material and a little metal at back cover and at front. Another down side, when I have to text someone outside , under the heat of the sun, I can’t no longer see the text on my screens, and so I have to look for a shed for me to be able to see it. I hope you could get me, i don’t really know the technical terms for that. Hoho!
Woooo, that’s a long story to tell! Hahaha! Anyhow, this would be a really long post since I decided to post some features I really liked about this fone. I hope this would be helpful for people looking for cheap alternative qwerty fone or people who is on budget like me.
Here’s a picture of Nokia E71 (left) and Nokia E5 (right):
As you can see, nokia e71 looks more classy with shiny metal casing than Nokia E5.
Nokia E71 is handier than Nokia E5
Now behold.. my Nokia E5
Here’s the picture of the keypad. I find that the keypad of Nokia E5 is softer than Nokia E71, softer in a sense that when you click each letters on keypad, it is alot easier and softer. I dunno if it makes sense hahaha! If you notice my screen is a little distorted, don’t be bothered because it’s not really distorted. I think the reason behind that is the scratch-free screen protector I got.
Here’s the picture of my home screen in Contact Bar view. This is the most helpful views on my part because I could put all the pictures of the names of the people I needed most or I texted most in the homescreen together with their details so I would no longer search their names in the contacts. And it’s kinda cute to wake up every morning and see the pictures of the people you love most on your home screen right? I believe Nokia E71 doesn’t have this feature.
Also, in the contact view, you could include details of them. Example, on my sister I put her title “Architect.” This is very helpful if you’re like a person who forgets most of the time. You could write, “President of Blah blah corporation” as title. Also you could insert her picture on the contacts. If you don’t have pictures of him/her, no worries because you could match it to your Facebook’s friends! Amazing right?
Just Choose her name on contacts, click Option, choose Facebook, then Select Match (be sure to have internet connection first). Then, find her name on your friendlist and her profile picture will be automatically updated on your contacts and in additional, you will be also be updated on her Status in FB. Isn’t it fun?
You can also change the view from Contact Bar to Horizontal Bar.
And Horizontal bar to Active Bar.
And so on....
You can also change the way you view your menu.
Just like this:
Grid
V-Shaped
Horseshoe
And List
Another helpful feature is that you automatically connect your emails directly on your inbox and the most exciting part is; you could have more than 1 email account. Just like me, I have two gmail account but I can update and check them automatically without signing out. Isn’t it great?
Plus, you could separately change your mode into Business and Personal.I forgot to take a picture of that, but yes, you can do that.
There are more things you could do other than the mentioned above like: Very organized calendar, Ovi Maps,Nokia Ovi Stores, Share your pictures thru "share online" application, nice gallery view, Add tags on your gallery, GPS, plus loaded with applications that are helpful for business people, or even travelers. This fone is helpful also if your blind because it has a talking theme setting which basically, talks. ;) you can also adjust the setting of the speaker (girl or boy) and their speed of talking in a way that you could understand.
See, all these features plus more for only Php 8,800.
Here’s the amateur video that I made. Very Amateur. Haha! ;p
