Just feel like blogging about a few random thoughts that I have before I start on my cross-cultural project.
First: There was a flash the other day. It lasted for few seconds. Just didn't occur to me that it's still there. Made me suddenly miss the comfort of familiarity. Missed the 'ya ya ya i know'. And that very peculiar sound. It's just a flash. I am oredi used to its departure.
Second: Media really blew up the Jack Neo's scandals. And I pity his wife. There are many views on what she should do or should have done but no one has the right to question whether it's right or wrong; it's their lives, her decision. I admire her though. It all boils down to one single word - love. Her love for him surpasses everything else. I'd have taken the same position. On the other hand, I wished I had the courage like Wendy Chong. Becos I didn't have, I was unable to do what I should have done. Now I am left with the 'what ifs'. Real foolish.
Third: The battle between iPhone and Blackberry has been going on for a while and it will probably continue until Google's Nexus One is available here. Somehow I feel that iPhone has boosted the sale of Blackberry in the last few months. Not that the latter is not good or incomparable but I feel that it has gained a substantial amount of preference owing to the recent craze for the former. So many people went crazy when the other two network providers launched the sale of iPhone. I tried to do a little research through observation just to see how exactly has iPhone proliferated the market. I gave up after two days. It was a fruitless exercise. The number is simply overwhelming. It has totally lost the brand image it used to have and clearly diverted from its original target audience. I termed it 'the public phone' even though I am using one too. I guess this is one of the rare occasions for me where 'good things are worth the wait'. I have wanted the phone ever since ST launched it. But I couldn't get a ST line. Then I thought I could just get the iTouch since it serves almost the same purposes. When I was going to get the iTouch, taa-daa!! The news came that M1 and SH are launching it. Lucky I didn't get any other phone sooner if not I'd surely regret my choice becos I am totally in love with my personalised public phone! : )
