Here's to my New Gadget ixus 240

Here’s the unboxing of my new gadget fresh from Canada, my pink Canon Ixus 250 (Elph 320). This should be a replacement for my Panasonic lumix lx3. I’m still torn whether I will sell or not my Lumix LX3 since there’s a sentimental value attached into it. It was Marko’s Christmas gift last 2010. Anyway, I have posted it already on online buy-and-sell sites. Up to now, I haven’t receive any  message from serious buyer except for one who wants to buy it for 7k only (uughhh! Sobrang barat lang di ba?).

The reason why I fell in love with the camera is because its sleek and handy plus with wi-fi capabilities so I can easily post my captured moments online via itouch/ iPad transfer. Amazing right? This is my remedy for low quality and grainy images produced by my mobile gadgets. To top of the wireless transfer, it has unique program presets such as toy camera, fish eye, soft skin and sporting the slow motion video.

One of my rants would be the touch response. I would prefer the ordinary mode dial instead of the touch screen thingy. Touch screen is not so responsive (Only apple provided super-fast touch response for me).

I gave marko his homework, work on the wireless transfer of images to my itouch as I don’t have high tolerance in reading manuals. It worked well :) Now I am so ready to use this point and shoot.

Twinkle No Longer a Puppy

As I was busy doing some work, Marko exclaimed that twinkle has already started her period. It was unexpected for me though I was advised by her vet that probably she will have her first period before her 12th month. Twinkle moved toward me directing me to the blood stains on the floor. Silly of me, I don’t know if I should congratulate her (as if she would understand). It was a stinky encounter since we have to wipe the floor which has her blood stains on.


Since I am new in dog-having-menstruation stuff. I immediately googled it to get some few tips. Firstly, google says be on-guard since bitches that are having their period can attract male dogs. It’s the scent of the blood that attracts these male dogs so beware. Secondly, dogs usually have their period twice a year (every 6 months) and it lasts up to 21 days or 1 month (so we need to deal with it for one month). Lastly, if you want to refrain your dog from scattering blood stains contain her in one place by placing her in crate. It would be big adjustment for her :(

Let’s shoot for the Stars!

Don’t pressure me I panic

I had a lunch meeting at Chili’s a while ago with my most favorite client (yah I know I’m so bias). The reason why this account is my favorite is because they contribute more than half my quota every year, their team is straightforward and most importantly they are well versed with their requirement.

Speaking of which, I have encountered a client (just recently) who is not quite sure of what their requirement is. The thing is they are pretty much unsure of what they need from what they want which is making things more complicated. Apart from it I am receiving indecent proposal from the contact person who is asking me out for dinner. I answered him in a professional manner, that it is already beyond office hour already… blah blah blah (in short I have rejected his offer). Unfortunately, he took this so badly that he sent me an email novel saying how unsatisfied he is with our service and if we still want to push with this project.

At circumstances like this, I am always caught off guard. Do I need to stoop that low just to close the deal? To think that project is not visible at all. I feel so bad because I am deprived the liberty of defending myself and I want to ask for some respect. It just saddens me when some people are so unprofessional to act that way. Definitely going out with client beyond office hours is not part of my JD. Besides I am not that kind of girl, I want to take things at most professional manner as possible.
