hello it's c u t e again.

"Stand out from the crowd and give your earphones a makeover."
that's iBingz's - an Australian earphones 'accessory' store - marketing line. i must say, i'm totally buying it. see for yourself.

those lips... that strawberry... ooh and that ladybug! so many choices, but only one set of earphones.

tacky much? or cute much?
definitely the latter for me!

i've been apple-fied.

for the longest time, i've been using my Creative Zen Neon. it has served me very well and has also gone through quite a lot of shit such as me dropping it several times and thus it lacking in a couple of parts. surprisingly till today, it still functions decently, just a lil cranky at times.

so, it was time for an upgrade/change. and i'm the happiest girl today cos gaoster bought me the 5th Gen iPod Nano in purple (which happens to be the same colour as my Zen Neon)! i haven't had the chance to play around with it much but am definitely gonna have a good time with my new toy. the features are fantastic! here's a brief run through if you're interested in getting an upgrade yourself -

P U R P L E; comes in eight other colours; 2.2-inch display screen; voice over function that allows you to drive/run/walk without having to look at your screen as it'll read the artist/title out!

there's FM radio and Live Pause - allows you to pause, rewind and fast forward. how cool!

you can shake it to shuffle songs! totally random.

V I D E O; cool shit. now i just need to find something jaw-droppingly exciting to video.

i love this feature the most! the Pedometer counts every step you take. lame as that sounds, it actually counts the number of calories you burn from walking. G R E A T for shopping days!
