Can you keep up?

I was clearing bit of stuff and I found a bunch of these...


Oh dear. What are these called already? Haha. Floppy disks? Diskettes?

I still remember handing in my 1st assignment in uni with a report and a floppy disk - Financial Accounting 101. We were learning how to use MYOB. Those were the days..

I wanted to throw them away. Then I thought maybe I should check if there's anything inside.. not that it would be security matter since it can only store 1.44mb!!!! The horror!!!

Brings stack to my notebook. Eh.. dont have floppy reader. Move to my sister's desktop, trying to look for that familiar slot.. EH!! dont have also!! Hahaha.

OK. Nevermind. Not checking. Threw the whole stack into the bin. LoL.

Makes me feel so old. It was only more than 5 years ago that I handed in that assignment. And almost every pc in the computer labs were equipped with a floppy drive. It was the 2nd most convenient (and #1 most unreliable) storage medium. Now? Pc's dont even have a reader for it. Hahaha.

can you guess which was my favourite? :P

And here is my faithful mobile phone. Been using it for years!!!! Dont recognise it hor? It's from the stone age.. it's all bruised and dusty behind the screen because I keep dropping it and it cracks open - leaving for me to put it back together again. Unable to get rid of the dusts.. hahaha.


Its a phone where 3G didnt mean anything and there was no such thing as XX megapixel cameras or Carl Zeiss optics or even Cybershots!!! -__-" It has one of the 1st generations of cameras embedded in mobiles..

Dont play play ok!! This phone has gone through thick and thin with me. It has even fallen down the stairs for me. Fallen down the car to the road. Jumped from my pocket to the ground. And many other similar experiences. The only thing it hasnt done, lucky me, is fall down the toilet bowl >_<"

Been saying that I want to change phone for years! And still havent done it. Haha. Sad case. But to me, a phone is just a phone. It allows me to send sms, call people, keep phone numbers.. But most of all it wakes me up in the morning. LoL.

Only shortcoming is that its not 3G. Now that we're moving towards NextG/4G (or is it G4), I havent even made a video call before.. *eeeks*

Now I see phones like N95 populating the market. Young people buying them. Honestly.. how much of the features do you use? I actually dont see the point of buying such an expensive phone when I'm probably going to use only 20% of the features. And there's a huge range of phones to choose from. We're definitely getting spoilt by choices. Anyway, I'm nobody to comment. I dont even have a 3G phone!!! Hahaha.

Okok. Going to get one soon. Until today, I still cant decide if I'm going to stick to faithful ol' Nokias or the trendy SE's.. LoL. I will decide ok!! trust me! :P
