  • Hong Kong: Apple Store, Central 中环苹果店

    Hong Kong: Apple Store, Central 中环苹果店

    Hong Kong: Apple Store, Central 中环苹果店 – Let’s fly to Hong Kong today and check out the Apple Store located at Central area of Hong Kong Island. I’ve been to one at Nanjing Lu and another one at Pudong, Shanghai, both of them are very cool.

    Actually, most of the Apple Store around the world looks the same, they have the same interior layout, the famous glass spiral stairs, and what’s difference is the language and visitors. It’s Hong Kong and it’s Chinese all around. Same as the two stores in Shanghai, this one in Hong Kong was very crowded too!

    I feel that Apple Store is one of the attractions in Hong Kong as there’s not much Apple Store located in Asia.

    Free Photo At Switch World, Gurney Plaza

    Switch World is a yearly event held by Switch, an Apple Premium Reseller here in Penang. Last time I always go check it out but now I don’t already because it’s just taking the whole Apple store out into a big place to show people what Apple has. I am an Apple fanboy and I think I know quite a lot about Apple already.

    I was at Gurney Plaza during Switch World few weeks ago so I dropped by to check it out anything special. End out, I found an external battery pack for my Google Nexus One, and I bought it up. =D Upon buying anything there, we got a free photoshoot and photo printout. Pretty cool.

    Every year, there will be a Mini Cooper, no idea why. But it’s cool.

    Many people don’t know Mac being brain washed at there too. There’s a way to tell people that Mac doesn’t lag, that is they will open a lot of folder and tell you, “see, no lag”, actually opening folder will not lag a computer. Haha.

    I bought something and there’s 5 of us, me, Qonstance, Sumay, Hueisean and Tzou Xiong, and we went to free shoot at there. Free edit, free soft copy and a free print out. =D

    So fun, but the person who edit our photo talked a lot, a little bit too much because I knew quite a lot about the software and he assumed we didn’t know. OMG. Nevermind, still we get free printout! =)

  • PLKN Experience: MacBook Pro and Photo Booth In Camp

    PLKN Experience: MacBook Pro and Photo Booth In Camp

    On a lovely 3rd Sunday of Kumpulan 2, Siri 7, 2010 in Kem PLKN White Resort, Balik Pulau, two guys who were already gone came back to the camp. Balbinder Singh and Eu Chuen.

    It’s a Sunday and as usual, I would be in the hall (they called it Dewan Rajawali) from morning until afternoon. I love being in the hall on Sunday because it’s family visiting day and my parents would come and visit me, bring food, bring laptop and camera for me to play with. I don’t like to stay inside the dorm and sleep, it’s Sunday, I need some fresh air and bright light. Dorm is dull.

    It’s still early that day, around 930am, I was just preparing myself to go the hall to check out who’s family or friends were there. I am weird, I like to see who came to visit them. Haha. As for my parents, they would probably come around noon time. It’s kinda surprise to see Singh and Eu Chuen came back to the camp a week after they had left. They made deferment because they were going to college, and they came back on a surprise visit. Nice!

    Eu Chuen, Izzi and Khang.

    Now only I know that there’s an Apple fan in camp and quite a geek too. Eu Chuen brought along his gadget, the MacBook Pro, planning to online at there but somehow the WIFI couldn’t work on that day. So I played a little with my favourite Mac app, Photo Booth. Hehe. Feel a little bit sad for Chuen because he bought his MacBook Pro few weeks before NS and the new revision came out a few week after NS. Apple really release stuff on a surprise. Still, it’s cool. I want one too!

    Balbinder Singh.

    Singh, a mixed of Chinese and Singh came all the way from Taiping and was staying at Eu Chuen’s place. Chuen brought him to camp and they stayed until afternoon.

    Sunday is always the best day because I can skip breakfast and wake up a little bit late at 745am, then there’s mom and dad, there’s lot of food and a lot of talking. We talk from morning until afternoon! Yeah.

    Wondering what’s Englbear? I am kinda addicted to Celcom Blue Bears. Each country is represented by a bear, like England is Englbear, Germany is Bearmany and so on. The Blue Bears are doing big on the World Cup, so if you are a World Cup fan, you should check out the bears.
