iPhone 4S more days.

Reading rumors that the iPhone 5 is going to be announced soon is very unsettling for me. I mean that's probably fantastic news for many iPhone users, but I only ordered last week and will be getting it this week, if they were to announce that iPhone 5 would be releasing soon that would mean I just spend $400 on a soon to be obsolete product.


Well maybe not obsolete but it's close enough for me.



I have also recently found out that M1 is now selling a non-camera iPhone 4(S?) that cost $50 more than the usual iPhone and doesn't come with any warranty, a warranty for 1 year usually means your product will work for 1 year before breaking down, that's what I think Sony does anyway. They ensure your warranty is only valid when your product is still in good shape and when 1 year is up, your product suddenly start to get hardware issues.

So maybe I only had that issue with my PS2, but that was my very first PS2, the fat bulky one that can probably knock any burglar out with one hit. Who needs a gun when you have a giant black brick that can't do what it's suppose to do? 

But it scars a person for life, especially when that person has been yearning for a PS2 for years finally gets it and bought so many games for it only to suddenly find out that it can't play his latest favourite game. At least Microsoft's Xbox 360 spoils in the middle of the warranty, so people can actually go back to Microsoft over and over and over and over and over again to fix their never ending red ring of death For Free minus time and transporation because that's not covered in the warranty. But that's old news.

It has never cross my mind to actually get a non camera iPhone 4(S) because the camera is one of the main features . A Blackberry non camerea is understandable because it's legit and if you actually went to remove the camera, they will update the software to a non camerea version, but not an iPhone without a camera, there are so many Photo apps for the iPhone, so in the end, not only are you paying an extra 50 bucks to remove the camera and void the warranty, Photography apps will be in the app store constantly reminding you of the fun times you two could have had together had M1 not ripped the cameras off the iPhone.

Alas, it's for Army Personnels, because thanks to all the idiots at Stomp, now the army has so many restrictions. Which reminds me of one post I saw in Stomp out of dozens of similar ones.


First of all, don't even imagine getting support for posting bullshit about Army Personnel "not giving up their seats for you on the MRT on a crowded train". If you  think "... because they are protecting out country" is a valid argument for why a Army Personnel should give up their sit to a perfectly healthy young lady then you can go fuck yourself Stephanie Tng. <- I think her post on stomp got removed so here's a forum link to people bashing her.

You already stated that they are "...protecting our country", did you perceive that as lazing around all day in camp and doing nothing? The Army Guy is probably going home from camp after an entire week of training, why must they be giving up their seats to you when all you have probably done is gone shopping for the past 3 hours and your leg is a little achey.

People in uniform are protecting the country for your sake, show some fucking gratitute.

Marmite Spaghetti Tested

Today for lunch, my mother decided to make Pasta with Butter and Spices with Prawns. Well I don't like butter because it smells like sweaty socks so unless it's being used in some baked goods, I would usually avoid anything slathered in butter, apart from my Oreo Cupcake icing.


So I decided, since I had Pasta and Marmite, I thought I would follow a Nigella Lawson recipe which is essentially Pasta in Marmite Sauce. Took out all the ingredients, realised I had to use a think slab of butter, followed the recipe anyway because I really wanted to try this recipe for a while now but was simply to lazy too, plus now I had a valid reason, I had to make lunch even though my Mum has already prepared one for me.

"Oh what about those poor people in Africa?"

I care for the people in Africa, that's why I'm not going to ship them the Pasta my Mum made over unless thier stomach can handle Fungus Pasta with Maggots filled Prawns.



I have followed a few recipes from Nigella and many a times I have doubted her recipes because the Churros recipe I followed  last time was a disaster because she OBVIOUSLY gave the wrong measurements in the video. No amount of stirring is going to make a watery batter thick, unless you are stirring if for so long the liquid in the batter are evaporating, by that time your arms would probably be moving based solely on muscle memory.


I took out the butter, Marmite and cooked the pasta in what Nigella would say "water as salty as the Mediterranean". Melted the butter and stirred in the Marmite, pouring a bit of pasta water into it. After seeing the bubble boil in the butter and Marmite mixture I quickly poured it into the cooked pasta, first thing that I realized was that I probably put in a little too much Marmite because the pasta looked a bit darker than what Nigella one had appeared.


And after taking the first bite I realized I had probably just preserved my stomach with the salt from the Marmite. Threw the whole thing away after a few spinning forks full of it. The only reason I took more than 1 spinning fork full of it was because I thought maybe I needed time to adjust to the Marmite.


It's not the recipe fault, it was my eyeballing at the amount of Marmite to put into the Marmite sauce. And with that I have come to the conclusion that I do not enjoy Marmite as much as I thought it would.


I'm just wondering how does one enjoy Marmite on bread, that sounds gross unless of course it's on toast, because putting anything on toast is yummy, even that yellow gloopy stuff that smells like smelly socks called butter.
