Crack

Crack

By Delrondu | Snapshot, Tech

To my horror and disgust, this is what I found after lending my brother my W850 for one morning (although I’m sure it’s not his fault but I always find a scapegoat):

See the crack in the added circle where his finger is? I’ve never heard of any complaints there before, usually it’s just the keypad.

Rouse

By Delrondu | Confession

This past week I haven’t had enough sleep. Everyday my eyes hurt from the glaring sun whenever it chooses to grace us with its full glory.
Something is off with my biological clock. Some mornings I get out of slumber at around 8am. Now, retiring a little earlier results in waking up at 7am. I just

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

By Delrondu | Cinema

This is like Pearl Harbour, a very boring first half and a more interesting second half. Actually, to be exact, the first two-thirds were dull. Only the final confrontation was better as that’s when the CGI kicks in. Otherwise, it was just the story-building and it just wasn’t fun to sit through. Nothing interesting at

Blockade

Blockade

By Delrondu | Local, Snapshot

After months of expecting, it has finally happened…

This road linking Subok and Kianggeh is just accident-prone with the recent windy situation in the country. I don’t know why relevant authorities are taking so long to clear these precariously low-hanging branches. They did begin clearing a little but I don’t see why they don’t do it

W850i

Problems with my Sony Ericsson W850i so far after less than 6 months of use:
There’s a fine crack on the bottom circular button after the Play/Pause button. This has been reported 3.7 million times already so I was prepared for it.
But when typing a text, the brightness from the screen fluctuates quite violently sometimes.

Hair

By Delrondu | Confession, Snapshot

I bought these three hair products from Darren’s hair-stylist, Jesper, who is with the Mirage hair salon during my trip to Singapore last week. There I had the most expensive hair cut of my life! Ok, so my outcry is somewhat unwarranted (I think it was $33). But I could feel difference in the

Die Hard 4.0

By Delrondu | Cinema

Also known as Live Free Or Die Hard. It was explosions after explosions after explosions, and then some more explosions. It’s as if the explosions are there to make up for whatever else is lacking from the movie, like proper dialogue, John McClane’s lack of profanity, mediocre plot and a typical summer blockbuster. Not the

His

By Delrondu | Confession, Snapshot

That same trip to Singapore last week, I finally met up with His again. And to be honest, I have totally forgotten he just had an accident and was a bit shocked to see his jagged canines and incisors (he lost a tooth and chipped quite a few others). Almost like those creatures from the
