Ignorance Day

2013 is a huge leap for me that I had to get away and ignore the very day I'll crossover a certain age. I retreated to Bali to enjoy peace and tranquility but got crashed by my best bud, Hakimbo.

Bali was meant for my alone birthday retreat where I'll enjoy staying in the hotel, swimming at the pool, rest on the bed, stroll by the beach, complete a book by the pool/beach, massage and maybe shopping. I did enjoy most of it except the shopping part.

There wasn't anything fantastic at the shopping arcade across the hotel but there were tons of outlet stores. I've only managed to get 4 top to spare for the trip.

Browsing the other malls around Bali was a bore. Then again, I didn't really had the intention to shop so that was a good thing. However, I went a bit crazy while I was at the airport. I've gotten myself a couple of books just before boarding.
 

I've noticed the latest book purchase are black whereas the previous purchase were mostly white. This many book purchase, I can only start reading them once my exams are over. I just can't wait.

Birthday!!!

This is a long overdue post, almost a month. This year would be a very quiet celebration hence known as my Ignorance Day. I will be spending my time in Bali.

I didn't really expect my friends to get me present as I don't even know what I want/need. After much hesitation, I've requested something out of their budget but I was happy to top up the difference. So they got me an iPad Mini.

My first gen iPad is still in a good working condition so why would I need a new iPad. I'm quite logical with technology. If it still works, just utilize it till its demise. With most of my school materials in my iPad along with my list of comics and magazine, I've maxed out the storage. Hence I needed a bigger storage device. On top of that, having a cellular capability would be additional help since I have a complementary data SIM card to my home network. Furthermore, the first iPad is damn heavy.

So with my new iPad, I need a new case. There wasn't much nice cases around so I got this by Ozaki.

My siblings also had problems getting me a present too but by then I knew what I need, an iPhone5 armband to assist me while doing my jogging routine. Had to get the Adidas version. Strong supporter of Adidas.
