No warranty for hinge?

Life

Harumph!

N80

Looks like Sony-Ericsson isn’t covering my phone hinge with warranty and is about to charge me RM280 to have it changed plus three working days! One day I can probably tolerate but I still have six weeks of warranty left and this is how they treat me?! I’m going over to Nokia as soon as the price of the N80 that I’ve been eyeing comes down a bit.

Hope it lasts till December or something.

In the mean time, it’s time to spend some major $$… on something big, non-portable, and well, I did say it is rather big right?

On a 200km day…

An early morning start with just coffee, a long drive to Sentul and back to section 17, a rapid excursion to Sungai Buloh and throw in two trips from SS2 to Desa Sri Hartamas!

Yummy pork chops from Yut Kee!

A mid-autumn festival…

Life

Mooncakes, lanterns and fire!

The Mid-Autumn Festival (Traditional Chinese: 中秋節, Simplified Chinese: 中秋节; pinyin: Zhōngqiūjié; Korean: Ch’usǒk or Chuseok 추석/秋夕; Vietnamese Tết Trung Thu; Taiwanese Tiong Chhiu;also known as the Moon Festival, Mooncake Festival, or the August Moon Festival. In Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, and Malaysia, it may be referred to as the Lantern Festival, similar in name to a different festival which falls on the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year) is a popular Asian celebration of abundance and togetherness, dating back over 3,000 years to China’s Zhou Dynasty.

Nice and lovely…

The Festival falls on the 15th day of the lunar month 8 of the lunar calendar (usually around mid- or late-September in the Gregorian Calendar), a date that parallels the Autumn Equinox of the solar calendar. At this time, the moon is at its fullest and brightest, marking an ideal time to celebrate the abundance of the summer’s harvest. The traditional food of this festival is the moon cake, of which there are many different varieties.

Oops, something caught fire!

DSL? S/D or D/S? 2sty? Reno? L/A? CNRL?

Mumbo jumbo? Not really. It’s just means Double-storey Link, Semi-detached or Double-storey? Two storeys, Renovated, Land Area and Corner Lot! My goodness and you think the IT industry has a lot of jargon!
