A shoutout to Obama. Congrats for your win, hope that America’s economy will improve. Other factors include renewable energy, tax and most importantly healthcare will be cared for, which America really needs.

Yeah!
I am at Apple Store - Epicentre @ Orchard Store today again.
Yes, again Im at Sapura Technology to settle my iPod’s stuff.

Woke up at 9.45am, see the bright light shining. As usual, first thing wake up, is to check my emails. Turn-ed on the computer, and start checking mails.
Today’s emails seems lesser, 7 unimportant emails. 1 Urgent email from my Teacher.
mmm.

At around 3.30pm, I went over to BPP (Bukit Panjang Plaza) to meet My friend, I will not reveal the name for privacy purposes.

Let me show you something funny when I was sitting with my friend on the bus today.
It was soooo funny!

Singapore’s Post Van has stored and broke down!

Yes, It reads. ” On Toll! “
Anyways, the 190 SMRT Bus sit was very very small, and there were little spaces to sit, and more space to stand.
Now they want people to pay money to stand, if this were to go on, everyone will have more brittle legs!

After reaching Orchard. Around Scotts Road, as usual, the Old Chung Kee store hails alot of visitors selling their Curry Puffs and fried food.
To tell you honestly, their Curry Puffs taste.. Heaven.
Outside Hyatt Hotel, which is one of the expensive hotel’s in Singapore, This weird number plate car stood outside. This car is LTA APPROVED.

–
Went to Epicentre@Orchard, which is the Apple Store.

Headed straight for the FREE XBOX GAMES. Before that, I went over to the iPod counter to do the stuff I wanted.

Do you know that Apple is supporting Microsoft Indirectly? They put XBOX games for them to play, No choice, because Apple doesn’t have their own PS3 or XBOX. Thats why they took other companies games to sell, and to earn so profit margin. See?

(above) The Old MacBook Pro
Do you know that Apple also spent quite alot for Advertising. So, this is the MacBook Pro that they have been talking about for years and counting.
(below) The New MacBook Pro

There is only a few good features:
- Brighter Screen
- More Glossy
- Keyboard is black (which is good, compared to the white keyboard, it gets yellow-ish easily)
- Trackpad/Touchpad (Picture Below) is make of Glass, which allows more space to scroll on, Apple also eliminated the two left and right click buttons, to allow more space to move your fingers.
- Instead of the right and left click buttons, you can easily ‘tap’ on the bottom left and right trackpad
- While you are looking at photos, If you wish to zoom in to the photo, you can simply ‘pinch’ the trackpad
- Faster Processor and Better Specs

Who says Mac doesnt have ANY viruses?

–
As for the Need For Speed Prostreet game we played on Apple’s Store’s XBOX, we managed to hit the 280 km/h limit!

–
This is why you choose a Mac!

Some marketing tactics (:
–
After that we went to the Swan Hobby Shop to see some RC parts!

–
After that, Bus 190 back home!
