Xperience Sony

Posted on by jeanneji

It has been a little while but I think I am back into my phone binge. I haven’t kept up with things for a while, but with the moving to Virginia soon, I was thinking about finally getting a real phone plan. I saw on AT&T’s website that they are anticipating the HTC One, the follow up to the HTC One X (and other letters). It’s pretty nice, but the new HTC Sense interface is a little Windows-like. I’m sure it’s not bad since HTC is a great company, but I looked up what Sony was doing.

Sony Xperia Z.

Xperia Z
Xperia Z, coming soon!

 

This bad boy is so pretty. Given, with all the capabilities and being so new and powerful, it’s a little expensive. As a very stupid move, if I pay off my credit card, I can buy it outright and just make slow payments on it. I would also need to have it shipped from Europe (hooray) or hope for a great deal on eBay.  There’s a nice matching new tablet (also not out yet) but that will have to wait. I really want this new phone. It’s so cool! As soon as I get settled with some things, I am looking to sell off some items and have a little more money. I should work on not having so much sentimental value on objects like my old phones. The values have really depreciated and I won’t make as much back at this point. Still something though.

I applied to get certified for my CPhT so I can find more work once we get to Virginia and the site says it normally takes up to an hour. Up To one hour. It’s been about 24 hours now and I still have not heard back from them yet.  I bet it’s my criminal background check.  Woo. I can’t wait to hear back from them.

I started my Viibryd again. The side effects of coming off the prozac are kicking in though. I am so tired these days and the motivation is pretty low, but I’m hoping the Viibryd kicks in much sooner than later. Here’s to hoping!

Labor Pains

Posted on by jeanneji

Have you guys seen that Lindsay Lohan movie? I did when I was at Jenn’s. It’s ok. But in spirit of this Labor Day Holiday, I am posting…a week later. I started this then, but never got around to it. I’m on the train now, so maybe I’ll finish.

Hm… I guess it’s been over a month now? Wow. August was a rush (like the movie. haha).  But anyway, I could recap a little. It came down to people setting off to leave for school.  A few more barbecues, some little adventures. We did not end up going out to Erie for the show since Crash dropped that set (more on that later). School began, and things are…going.

August 31, 2009.  My classes officially began for the fall semester. This is my 2nd year now, so I’ve gotten the hang of things for the most part. My school shopping consisted of buying 10 notebooks and some post-its. My first class did not begin until 11, so I came back down to school that morning. After my classes, I went home. Next day, no classes and I went with Jenn and Harley up to NYC to Webster Hall.  Rookie of The Year, Go Crash Audio (<3), Kiernan McMullan. Love love love.

My loan money is to be dispersed within 3 business days (Saturday should become a standard) but then after paying bills and such, I should have a little room for spending. When I say little, I mean I’m thinking about 2 things which engulf my budget. I’m DEFINITELY getting my new camera; I’m just deciding between two (Nikon D3000 or D5000). That’s a good chunk of money, but then I might replace my iPod with something with a greater capacity (being that this one is only 8gbs and my flash drive holds more). I want an iPod Touch with the capacity of a classic and the size of a nano. Haha, that’s not realistic at all.

My main courses this semester include Organic Chemistry, Anatomy and Physics. There’s a lot of work within it, but we’ll see how that goes. Good think I already took Micro! I guess along with school, I have my Asian Student Association duties (secretary) and I’m also membering in APhA-ASP. Janine wanted me to join her frat (it’s co-ed, but I like the term frat over sorority).  That’s probably not gonna happen so much though.

Did you know that with the Bank of America, I can have a Hello Kitty checking, savings account? Comes complete with a Hello Kitty Check Card and checks! There’s a credit card too, and I’m pretty sure I’m signing up once I’m at home (and preferably when the loan money goes through.)  I am pretty excited!

I think I’ve been trying to do too much lately. I’m not feeling too bad though, like it’s all manageable.  I’ve had some crazy dreams though, all with things that have been on my mind (to the point where I can’t escape problems and they make me feel bad even when I sleep. haha).  But anyway, The train ride is coming to an end and I should pack up.
