So ends the car shopping spree.
After a while I got a few more things. Dunno why but I just felt like I HAD to…
First up was an ORIGINAL Cromok CD. Anyone who has known me for some time knows I do not buy original CDs. All are downloaded of the net and then burned to a disc. As can seen in my CD sleeve in the car. Blank faced discs plastered with labels using black marker pens. Some don’t even have labels! (there’s actually a very good reason for that but I can’t remember what it’s supposed to be). The CD was from Artist Gallery when I went there with Nick and Azmy. I did have a collection of Cromok MP3s a long while back but they were lost to the 3rd Great HDD crash of 2007 along with give or take 14-15GBs of my other MP3s. Was only able to recover about 10% of ‘em. Sob sob. Anyhoo, I went nuts and got the CD. Or rather CDs actually. It was a set of 2. Album was Cromok The Great – A Metal Manifest. During the trip back, Azmy surprisingly allowed me to use HIS car audio to test em. Yes. Azmy’s prized CAR AUDIO SYSTEM. Figure that. He had a listen to a few songs and is now hooked. Great strings he says. Even got around to copying the discs (piracy, I know. Tell Azmy that). Now, in all circumstances, this would have been considered normal. However… and a big however at that, Azmy has never been known to listen to such music. Why? Get the CD from me and try em out yourself… hahaha
Earlier today, before I wrote TIME, I went looking for glasses. No, not drinking ones. The ones you wear laa. It was something that I thought of after trying out Nick’s and Lynn’s glasses the other nite. Seemed quite fashionable. Heh. So, went around a bit, and got me a pair. What made my day was, the frames are TITANIUM. Pricey, but hey, that never stopped me before. Blue, half framed TITANIUM ones. Sorry, still can’t get past the TITANIUM part. Hahaha. Luckily, got kang tao price for em so wasn’t really THAT pricey. Been wearing em all day now just to get the feel. Bah, so what you say? I DON’T wear glasses. Vision’s a crisp 20/20. So that’s what…
It is now a bit later, – well, a lot later really – but still before I wrote TIME. I needed to get online to write TIME on my laptop and music was needed. That part is solved by item #1. But then, there was 1 other problem. It’s a laptop. Sound is crappy (to say the least). My BT headsets were nowhere to be found either (just remembered, 1 at home, 1 in office). Can’t listen to songs on crappy laptop speakers rite? Especially when the source is an ORIGINAL (still can’t get past the ORIGINAL part also) Cromok CD. So, what to do? Buy new earphones of course! Got out and got a pair of brand new Philips earphones. Could’ve settled for regular no name ones but since I was on a roll, why the hell not rite? Really strange ones these. It comes in 2 parts! 1 part is the usual earphones. The other is an extension cord of sorts. A regular head or earphone would be around 1.2 to 1.5m in length. This one is of the same length (1.2m in case you really wanna know) but has it split up. 60cm each. Very handy when using laptops since you don’t have a whole stretch of wire running around everywhere. Not a bad choice methinks.
So ends, my current spree. Pay is coming in tomorrow. So, I just might have part III up soon. Hope not. Hahaha :P
