I am so jakun with my ebook reader on ipod....
stanza yg paling femes .. and cool gak aa flip page die..
bila tap, page terselak macam flipping a book..

tapi aku tgh kagum ngn good reader....
basically ade 2 jenis PDF files...
satu yang text pdf.... kira cam ko leh highlight text dlm pdf file tu..
and boleh copy nak paste ke words test tu kalau ndak..
lagi satu picture pdf...yang ni cam kalau ko scan buku text as pdf...
ko takleh copy text die sebab die picture..

usually ebook yg dijual online are text pdf...
pastu buku lelama (pirated).. takde ebook version aa... just that org scan and distribute...
semua buku jepun aku picture pdf... sebab buku2 lama...


anyways, aku download aa all Dan Brown's book...
stanza aku takleh figure out camne nak transfer dari pc ke ipod...
mungkin easy.. but I tak terfigure out plak.. amir asik kacau..
tak terbace aku how-to section die yg panjang tu..

then download aa good reader (0.99 sen at itunestore)
senang gile nak transfer from pc to ipod...
and senang sket nak paham how to control...

ni PDF file.. kalau bace pdf ni kat PC akan nampak camni gak la





with text pdf files... kalau ko view pdf tu.. view kecik aaa...
camni... takkan nak zoom unzoom and scroll kiri kanan..

tapi yang aku amazed was the PDF reflow function...
die akan copy semua text... and paste masuk paragraf yg narrow sket aa...
so that font besar ko nak bace.. camni



without controls, luas sket nak bace..



ni night view, background hitam... takde sakit mata sgt bace..



aku prefer bace vertically


without controls


then yang part yg aku jakon ni... ade auto scroll...
ko takyah nak tap sana sini utkk scroll...
ni video...
also dlm video ni ade aku tukar ke night mode...
background hitam, font kaler terang..
so that tak sakit mata bace dlm gelap..
aku tengah pump ni.. abaikan bunyik pam hahah

oh yeah.. aku mmg penakut nak jailbreak ipod aku awal2... nak sync ngn itunes bodoh tu pun aku still confused...
tapi dah dekat 9 bulan ni, aku dah makan banyak garam ngn ipod ni.. aku tau pe'el² die...
so aku konfiden nak jailbreak...
surprisingly easy if you understand what u want and what ur doing..
tapi kena spend time bace and paham sket....

but I finally customized my spingboard!! (tempat bericon2 ni lah... took me a day to know amende springboard tu.. was confused ngn winterboard and summerboard)
and.. vivi, notice that I have 5 icons kat dock bawah tu hehehee... syiokz!!!



and this one is for amir hehehehe..



aku rajin kang .. nak buat icons sendirik la.. tulis kanji jepun for the icons... ongaku, shashin, jikan, jishou
sure melekat abis kat otak aku.....


never knew my ipod was so powerful...
boleh work in background (usually boleh guna 1 app at 1 time je)...
boleh customize sana sini..
boleh tgk % battery.... reception brape...
boleh simpan icons dalam folder and categories them accordingly..
kalau aku ade iphone lagi syok aku godek kot..
konfius gile kenap Apple puts all these restrictions...
bukan ke Apple is a fun company to work with (ke aku konfius ngn google??)

oo n skang nak buat lockout screen aku rupa gini.. tunjuk scheduel.. cool



tapi setakat ni, baru berjaya tunjuk schedule je baru....

Finally some time to jot down...

Berjayakah aku mengikut itinerary europe haritu..??
yeah baby!!
but we skipped some unimportant stuff...
and minor changes were made along the way

first day, we arrived too soon... at around 6 am dah keluar dari immigration.
so sampai hertz a bit early...
we asked if tomorro return car a bit late.. say 7 am.. can aa?
they say will charge 1 more whole day.. POYO LAH UK HERTZ...!
the receipt already tulis for 2 days punye rental.. and full tank punye minyak...
so kat receipt tu 177 pounds... spoil mood betul....
kalau kitorang return on tim the next day and with full tank, maka tak charge la 177 tu..
so anyways, we made it a point to be early in returning the car...

so we're on our way to stonehenge...
oh!! by the way.. rental car kat UK/europe dont provide map book...
cam kat aussie aritu lengkap with a thick map book...
so that was my mistake.. assuming they will provide map...
so berbekalkan partial directions from rafiq's unclear capture of google map on his handphone...we're off!
first stop.... stesen minyak with map books... so bought 1 (unnecessary if we have print out before hand)..
nasib baik on sale.. so 3.99 pound...
teruskan perjalanan ke stonehenge..
perjalanan windy, gelap and drizzling
tuptap... opss tu stonehenge.. makk oi keciknye? and nothingnye?
we arrived at 8.... mende tu bukak kul 9.30...malas je nak tunggu...
so we parked somewhere... got out and jalan2 luar pagar... wow sejuk sial!
amir pun terkejut kot.. so when we put his hoodie on, no bangkangan...
if not, sure pantang je pakai topi2 nihs...
took some pics.... rase cam tak berbaloi je nak tunggu 1.5 jam and pay 15 pounds...







so we continued our way to bath... baru la nampak cam UK town...
we took the scenic winding road... sebab jalan beso cam jem...
amir kinda behave in car.... we rented the car seat.. but didnt use it sebab amir nak nyusu memanjang..
me and amir sit at the back..
carik tempat parking yg paling murah.... and we walk around bath town...
masuk roman bath... lama dah aku nak masuk.. so 22 pound...
well.. not worth it.... but worth it if dah lama terbayang2 nak masuk... bila lagi kan?
alang2 dah sampai... satisfy my curiousity...
shopping sket kat waitrose.... cream cheese soo cheap here!! gila bayang aku..





abaikan la muka tak mandi/basuh muka seharian dari dlm flight tu...
then we're off to bristol... tapi tak stop coz didnt seem interesting... just tengok2 from our car view..
then..gi reading plak nak carik hotel yg dah di book tu..
tapi map yg dibeli hanya utk jalan2 beso..
so we went to reading mall.. utk carik wifi free for my ipod.. seb baik jumpa...so got the directions...
sempat gak tgk mall UK camne... cam bangsar village je aku rase...


anyways we were so jetlagged.. dalam flight tak tido coz melayan amir (aku la.. rafiq layan game.movie)
melayan susu and so uncomfy nak truly sleep in flight..
dahla tak mandi, cuci muka, gosok gigi etc.. aku dah la period....
tak sabar gile nak sampai hotel
we arrived around 4 pm... byk masa utk jalan2 reading town.. but we didnt coz too tired...
ate roti and crap....

anyways.. watched some tv.. played with amir.. he likes new places... new things to discover...excited je masuk hotel room...

yang tak bestnye disebabkan nak pulangkan keter awal... so kena kuar hotel awal..
so tak dapatla breakfast free tu.... cehsss... benci la aku rental car company UK/europe.. poyo!
aussie/US tak sepoyo ini..anyways, the car rental turned out to be around 46 pounds... and we only used 1/2 tank of petrol.... tak ingat bape pound, kena check balik itu kertas budget ...




basically lari dari itinerary = tak bayar masuk stonehenge and tak stop bristol and tak breakfast at hotel....
extra unexpected expenses: map! and parking at mall to get map!

END of first day !

wish i was anywhere else... but here...

i heart this new shoes!!...
promised myself i would buy it i have left over money from europe trip...
crocs lydia...winter

hurts like hell.... but after more than 5 years tak pakai kasut of any kind...
mmg rase pelik... so i think my feet are getting used to it...
at least this hurts the least compared to other shoes...
primavera, clarks, scholl, hush puppies.. semua terbengkalai sebab aku sakit kaki..
manja sgt kaki aku ni.. dah terbiasa pakai sandal/selipar...
so usually aku pakai 2-3 kali.. then aku donate...

i bought 3 clarks kat UK... does not look promising... might have to resell it... :(

but i heart it!!!

aku masak ni smalam...





low fat mozarella...
chicken breast....
boleh la ala-ala healthy kan...

EDIT:
Rupanye we only have 1 day to jalan in Paris, maka versailles visit postponed :(
Tapi dengan tak pergi versailles, jimat RM400.

Inilah low-cost, baby-friendly mini europe trip aku... (refer previous entry)

1. Need hotel, not hostels.
2. Need sink/shower in hotel rooms at the very least.
3. Hotel needs to be near subway/metro station.
4. Need fast transportation (bullet trains, not buses or ferries).
5. Need car seat.
6. Get hotel with breakfast, load up for the day.

Okayla kan RM 4900 for 2 people.
