Beli Buku di Book Depository

Berhubung aku lagi demam Danmei sejak kapan hari. Mulailah perjalananku menuju kehidupan kepengen koleksi barang2 danmei. Tadinya pengen koleksi boneka Minidoll doang. Tapi tanpa sengaja ketemu seseorang di Twitter yg ngomong tentang beli novel dari Book Depository. The rest is history LOLOLOL. (Yes Nana, itu kamu. Tp kayanya kamu ga baca ini blog wakakaka)

Ceritanya kepengen support danmei writer Cina biar si writer bisa earn more money, biar bisa tetep berkarya dan biar lebih banyak company di luar bakal mau translate novel-novel Cina.

Sekalian penasaran sekarang tuh bea cukai gmn. Krn jujur sejak pembebasan bea masuk atas barang kiriman diturunin dari USD 75 menjadi USD 3 per kiriman, aku udah ga shopping dari luar lagi. Takut gitu lho. Ga lucu kan kalo udah beli malah ga sanggup bayar tax-nya lol.

Dari situ aku iseng cek app Mobile Bea Cukai. Tp anehnya ngga dikenakan tax sama sekali. Padahal udah baca sana sini, katanya kena tax kalau buku yg kita beli itu non-educational genre. Ada yg kena sampe 80rb-an. Tp ada jg yg cuma kena 8rb-an. Saking penasaran gw sampe tanya youtuber yg ada bikin konten tentang Book Depository. Dia jg bilang kalo dia ngga kena. Ngebingungin kan? Dan biar afdol, cus deh gw nanya via Twitter Bea Cukai. Jawabannya kaya gini:

Nah dari sini fix kan kalo non-educational books ga dapet pembebasan pajak. Jadi galau. Abis itu aku nanya deh gimana cara cek estimasi harga. Dikasih deh link itu insw.go.id. Tp jujur aku ga jago hal2 yg beginian. Jadi ya sudahlah pasrah aja dan memutuskan buat langsung cobain beli buku dari Book Depository. Ceritanya ga usah stress ini itu sebelom mencoba lol.

 

Dan untuk itu tentu saja aku langsung ke web Book Depository. Abis register cus deh checkout novel yg aku mau. Karena baru pertama kali, takut barang ga sampe atau kena tax tinggi, jadi cuma checkout satu novel hahah. Better safe than sorry kan?

Surprised juga penanganan mereka lumayan cepet. Aku baru checkout pas 19 April, dan ternyata pas tanggal 21 April udah dikirim donk! Dan seperti yg kebanyakkan orang bilang, memang mereka nggak mencantumkan nomor telpon kita. Ga tau kenapa. Pas checkout memang ada column gitu buat kita nulis nomor telpon. Tp ga tau kenapa ga ditulis di packaging lololol. Padahal berguna kan ya?

Untuk order status cuma diupdate sampe status "Dispatched". Abis itu berserah aja kepada Tuhan dan tunggu sesabar mungkin.

In short, buku aku dateng deh sekitar tanggal 27 May. Kenapa sekitar? Karena satpam apartment aku lupa buat masukin info barang dateng di list buku barang kiriman pas barangnya dateng. Jadi jujur aku jg ga tau exact date bukunya sampe LOL. Intinya sih sampe hahaha.

It's safe to say that ordering from Book Depository (UK - JKT) took around 35-36 days. Include weekend ya. Not bad sih memandangkan harganya yg lebih murah dan FREE ONGKIR. Cocok buat yang ga buru2 pengen dapet bukunya.

And oh...Good news! Ga bayar apa2 dong! Ga kena bea cukai! Jadi happy and pengen beli lagi di Book Depository lain kali.

Back View of the Packaging

Padahal packaging simple kaya gini ya. Ga dapet bubble wrap tapi aman damai sampai tujuan lho. Bukunya ga lecet sama sekali.

Udah gitu gratis bookmark hahaha. Pas banget aku dapet yg ada element kocengnya. Wakakak lucu jg ya. Sekian pengalamanku beli buku dari Book Depository. Semoga bermanfaat bagi yang ragu2 untuk mencoba. Tetep risky IMO. Tp worth the try!

Bagus ya? Mulus kan? AKU BAHAGIA LOL!

Belanja pake ASTRO App

Ceritanya pas kapan gitu ngeliat IG story orang ada app yg namanya ASTRO. Pada bilang kalo pengirimannya tuh cepet banget. Less than 15 minutes bakal sampe. Kan kedengerannya impossible banget ya. Toh yg namanya macet di Jakarta tuh udah ga asing. Gimana caranya 15 minit sampe. Belom lagi mrk harus cari tu item yg kita mau terus perlu packing kan?

Since gw jadi penasaran, gw download deh itu app. Dan ternyata bener. Udah beberapa kali pesen dan selalu tuh item sampe dibawah 15 minit. Ya sekitar 12 minit gitu lah. Entah gimana caranya. Jangan tanya diriku.

Jujur sangat convenient. Apalagi pas mager trus butuh item last minute. Bahkan kadang harga mereka lebih murah dari toko2 yg deket rumah lho! Pinter2 aja deh browsingnya hahaha. Worth it banget.

Kaya biasanya susu Greenfields Fresh Milk kan dijual sekitar 29rb-an gitu. Tp kadang di app dijual sekitar 26rb-an gitu. Asik kan! Belom lagi kalo shopping diatas 50rb. Ada cashback gitu. Sweet!

Oh satu lagi yg gw suka dari ini app. Kadang mereka tu sweet banget. Suka kasi item gratisan walaupun kadang cuma beli item yg totalnya cuma 50rb-an. Kaya kmaren2 gw dikasi Pocari Sweat yg ukurannya bisa dibilang gede ya buat gratisan. Malah pernah liat org dapet gratisan OATLY! Ya random sih. Tp ya happy aja dapet random gratisan.

YES! Itu Pocari Sweat GRATIS! Buat yg belom nyobain ASTRO app pokoknya wajib deh buat nyobain. Ya walau kadang ga full pilihannya. Tp lumayan sih. Kaya lagi butuh bawang merah doang, atau butuh beli susu, telor atau saos gitu. Convenient menurutku. Cara pembayaran jg gampang. Bisa pake OVO dll.

Boleh pake kode HEIHWN buat dapetin 25rb gratis! Lumayan toh. Kamu dapet 25rb. Aku jg dapet 25rb. Wakakaka. Win win solution. Smoga membantu buat kaum mager. Happy Holiday! :)

Segari.ID

Mau beli sayur tapi mager? Ga bisa ke mall? Mau save time? NO PROBLEMO! Sekarang kita ada yang namanya Segari.ID! To be honest sendiri juga ga sengaja ketemu pas lagi browsing IG story orang.

Jadinya helpful banget sih. Especially for me yang ga bisa ke mall atau males ke mall. Biasa kalo mau beli sayur sama telor sih gw order dari IG Forevergreen.id. So Segari.ID tuh useful banget menurut gw. Secara mau apa juga ada. Dari sayur, telor, daging, buah, minyak dll.

And most importantly??? FREE ONGKIR! YESSS! GRATISSS TISS TISS~~Kapan lagi bisa nyantai trus bisa ngirit duit delivery?

Sekarang tau kan kenapa gw mau nulis ini post? Biar kalian yang nggak sengaja ke blog ini juga bisa cobain. Ayo mager bareng wakakaka.

Ayo dipilih

Packing bubble wrap

Untuk packing daging dikasi es gitu. Nama es-nya apa ya? Dry ice?

Untuk kualitas sayur mereka, menurut gw sih standard lah ya. Nggak super wor. Nggak gitu jelek juga. Ok lah pokoknya. Tetep sayur si Forever Green the best. But oh well, since disini all in one. Daku sudah cukup puas.

Bisa diliat dari packagingnya. Ini tergolong rapi ya. Gw appreciate mereka packing di daging segitu rapinya. Walau ada beberapa daging yang ga dikasih itu es. Entah kenapa. Ga tau lupa apa memang sengaja ga ditaro.

Oh satu lagi. Pengiriman mereka juga cepet banget. Untuk pesenan gw ini sampe jam 7-an pagi. YESS! Pagi banget kan. Gw aja blom bangun wakaka. Untung ada satpam yang nerima.

Happy banget sama penanganan mereka. Pas sampe bakal di WA sama kurir mereka. Jadi ga usah takut tuh sayur ditinggal di depan rumah tanpa sepengetahuan kita.

Sefruit info, karena box mereka medium sized, kadang tuh barang kita dipacking lebih dari 1 box. Hahaha. Make sure to take note. Krn gw sendiri ga sadar. Pas dikirim foto sama kurirnya sih ada 2. Tp at first gw kirain itu kotak orang lain yang pesen. Jadi nggak ngeh. So yeah...pastikan aja.

Ok sekian sharing untuk hari ini dari Auntie Heidy. Have a nice day! Stay healthy and God bless! :)

Beautylabo's Hair Dye in Dark Brown

As some of you might have known, I'm a big fans of Kumicky (舟山久美子  Funayama Kumiko a.k.a くみっきー)! She's a Japanese Ex-Popteen magazine model who is now working on her own fashion brand called Mico Ameri. So I am soooo HAPPY when I happened to find Beautylabo hair dye with her face beautifying the packaging lying on Watsons' rack!~

Watsons Mall Kelapa Gading

If you've read my blog post on my past trip to Thailand, then you'd know how I planned to get Beautylabo Whip Hair Dye there but was failed to do so. Fail much! Of course the one sold in Jakarta's Watsons wasn't the whip hair dye which I'm dying to collect. But I'm more than happy to find any Kumicky related items here so yeah...THANK YOU to whoever bought it here! Please bring more! The whip hair dye, Liese and Palty too please! *greedy mode: ON*

Quickly grabbed the colour which seems safe coz I was bored of light colours at that moment. The color range is pretty limited in my opinion with only 6 colours to choose from. Natural Black, Dark Brown, Natural Blonde, Pure Beige, Candy Apricot and Raspberry Pink. Saw no Raspberry Pink during my visit...not sure if it's sold out or wasn't in stock...LOL. Btw I got them few months ago so the price might've increased.

TADAAA!!! Bought Dark Brown! Though honestly I'd choose either Candy Apricot or Raspberry Pink if I were to choose image based! Hohoho...

Will not talk anything on how to use coz I think it's self explanatory. Plus they've translated the instructions in English...so yeah...hehe

| RESULTS |

Usage wise it's pretty similar with bubble hair dye. But I'd prefer bubble hair dye more coz it's neater compared to this hair dye. I did quite a mess around my ears and neck with this hair dye. *sobs*

Colour wise I think it came out pretty well. Somehow similar with the colour showed on the box. The colour is lighter under the sun though. Not sure if it was the result of my previous hair dye or what...so let me know if you have any idea about it.

Anyway...have anyone noticed that this hair dye doesn't come with a rinse-off treatment or something like that. So be warned that this hair dye will leave your hair dry plus not manageable. Imagine washing your hair with Sunlight (dishwashing liquid). That kind of feeling!

A TOTAL horror for me coz my hair have always been smooth to the point where I can comb my hair with my fingers effortlessly. I can't do that at all after that. Didn't use any conditioners that day coz I thought that my hair condition will be better the next day but I was completely wrong! Wasn't the type who use conditioner while washing my hair you see...so yeah...no conditioner in my bathroom. *blush*

Therefore...Please prepare yourself if you're into trying this hair dye. Have hair conditioners or whatever hair treatment related stuffs with you to help your hair go back to its original state. Fyi my hair is pretty much have returned to its previous condition. So it's all good.

Would I buy this again? Sadly to say...NO! It's just too drying! But I might buy this again just for the sake of collecting the boxes! HAHAHA~~~ Let me know if any of you have tried this product and if it works for you just fine. Perhaps it works differently with others.

Nivea Sun Face Moisturising

Bought a new sunblock early this year on 26th of Jan! It's called Nivea Sun Moisturising Immediate Protection Face Cream SPF 50. (Goodness...Why name so long one???)

Been a while since I last use any sunblock cause honestly I'm someone who's too lazy to layer my face daily. But since I've got extra money been thinking for awhile about aging, I decided to invest on sunblock. With fingers crossed that I'll be able to discipline myself to apply the product routinely of course. Fortunately, so far so good. Except for holidays which most of the time I slack...

Front Packaging

Back Packaging

This is the part where they talk a little bit about the product, usage instructions as well as the ingredients used for this sunblock. Hmm...This product didn't mention if it's sunscreen or sunblock. But I decided to call it sunblock after reading THIS article. I mean, this product contain Titanium Dioxide which was mentioned in the article...So yes...Must be a sunblock. Tell me if I'm wrong since there's no doubt that I got zero knowledge on these things...haha.

For more details on how to use or the ingredients used, please click on the picture above. 

Front Tube

The main things that got me "seduced" to try this product would be the "Collagen Protect" as well as the "Immediate Sun Protection" words. Where do I read that again? About how collagen production start to decrease when we reach 25? Of course diff people got diff timing. Just like not everyone on certain age will definitely get their first wrinkle. More like a median I guess? So yeah...have been paying lots of attention on collagen lately. And yes I still haven't try collagen drinks too!

Compared to the competitors brand placed around this baby, they don't really mention about collagen...So yeah...this one is a plus point. Not to forget that this baby protects immediately upon application and there's no need to wait for 20 minutes. I think this is seriously tempting for someone who would want things to be done fast. Hohoho...

For everything else, I think there's not much different compared to the competitors brand...Effective protection against sunburn and premature skin? Normal. Water resistant? Normal. Quickly absorbed? Normal. SPF? Normal. You can read more on SPF, UVA, UVB and PA HERE!

Hmm...Oh wait...there's another good thing to mention! It has Vitamin E to help protecting the skin against free radicals. Though I don't really know what's that free radical is...but I've always loved Vitamin E...So yeah...You, too, is a plus point!

Back Tube

The cream texture

Spread nicely

The product mentioned that this sunblock is non-sticky, but I noticed that it does feel sticky upon application. Then it gradually disappears as time goes by. Apart from that, this sunblock oso whitens a lil bit. Not too much to the point you'll look like you're using foundation that's a looottt whiter than your actual skin tone. Moisturising part isn't that bad too! It helps a lil bit on reducing the visibility of skin flakes at times when my skin turns kind of dry. On a side note this sunblock have fragrance that is not much to my liking. (Strong floral? Err...I think I need someone pro in smelling to tell me how to describe this fragrance. LOL) Still bearable though. Considering the benefit given. No "pain" no gain huh?!

Bought this at Watson Mall Kelapa Gading 3 at the price of IDR 92.9k. Still affordable I think? Gonna try the other brand once this tube is finished. But definitely gonna put this on the "buy again" list if I can't happen to find anything better.

Schwarzkopf's Freshlight Berry Ash

The last time I've dyed my hair was a long time ago. Sometime before graduation I believe (I think it's the year 2010?). I remembered that I was using Liese's Chestnut Brown color. Tried other brand too back then but my hair color didn't even change for a bit. So I was very pleased when I gave Liese a try and it successfully changed the color of my hair.

Tried looking for Liese at the nearby stores but so far I found none. It's easy to find 'em on shops like Guardian or Jusco in M'sia but it sure hard to find 'em in Jakarta. Of course I found 'em on online shops along with Palty (the brand that I've always wanted to try coz of Masuwaka Tsubasa) but it's a PO so I was being reluctant about it. Most prob will be asking le bro to help me get Palty when he goes to Singapore in few months time.

Trying to find a decent hair dye that would dye my hair effectively beside Liese, I went around supermarkets, Guardian and Watsons nearby my house. And that's how I found Schwarzkopf Freshlight series (Anyone knows how to pronounce that word? I find it difficult...haha). So far this is the brand that attracts my eye. It has Blythe as the model of the box. Not that I'm a fan of Blythe nor Barbie's...but at least this packaging is the most eye catching and "different" compared to the others...hehe. (I'm a sucker when it comes to beautiful packaging!)

Front packaging 

To be safe, I searched for reviews with the help of uncle Google prior to purchasing as I didn't want to waste my money on something that wouldn't work at all. Seen okok reviews...They said that it does change the color of their hair but it didn't last long...

The word "didn't last long" made me quite reluctant about it as...Hey! Why would I have to spend quite a sum on something that would only last for a few days? I'm not that glamour till I'll change my hair color every now and then. LOL. But I give it a deep thought...Like what if that happens to different people differently?

Coz previously I was so happy about Liese that I told my bro to use them too but the outcome was bad as it didn't manage to change the color of his hair. TROLOLOL!

That's why I came to a conclusion that perhaps I can try this Freshlight. No harm to try I thought. Also I found out that they're having this "Miss Freshlight" event where you have to  take a pic with the box and pose as similar as the Blythe doll on the packaging. The one with the most votes and based on the judge's decision get to win some stuffs. So yeah! Off to purchase the hair dye! Bought them at Lotte Mart Kelapa Gading for IDR 105k.

 What's inside

It's pretty easy to use this as it comes in foam form. It's less hassle too as it didn't drip that much. Pretty much the same as Liese's. Love how it's easy and manage to color my hair evenly.

 Le hair colour before coloring

Can't see my before hair color that much from this pic. But it's darkkkk brown with flash or without flash. And the hair color isn't that even as I have new born hair along with the leftover from Liese's Chestnut brown back then.

After coloring

To be honest I was quite shocked while rinsing my hair after the 30-minutes of wait as my hair was still the same color as before I color my hair. But I was happy after drying my hair coz that's when the color appears! 

As you can see above, the color of my hair without flash was quite similar with what's shown on the top box. The colours are pretty but I guess I was mistaken to think that the word ash leads to a grey-ish color as I think instead of grey it has that orange hue to it like what you can see the pic with flash...LOL. But overall it's ok and worth using this brand again!

Le hair with flash - On the 9th day after coloring

In fact the color are still visible until today. And perhaps even brighter...LOL. Pls excuse that huge acne on my chin as I'm too lazy to touch up my skin.

Me inside the box (with acne chin removed...LOL!)

Last but not least the last photo to end today's post. Intended to upload this one for the photo event on Freshlight Indonesia FB. However it keeps giving me that "internal error" two days in a row...Thought that changing the photo into various of sizes would change the outcome...But nah...Not even changing PC to Mac nor internet connection made a difference...LOL. So I guess I wasn't to enter this event...FML!

Err...ok la...Not as if I enter sure win...so it's ok. It's just that recently I told myself to work hard for whatever I want and not to give up before giving it a try...So I was really hoping to join you see...But this time even the internet and pc doesn't support me enough...hmm...fine! Hehe.

New Lappie a.k.a Toshiba Satellite P840!

So finally...like FINALLY...after all the dissatisfaction towards my lappie which lasted for almost a year and plus, I managed to get myself a new lappie! *throws confetti* It took me long enough...About 7-8 months of saving. Which means home cooking for the whole weekdays and only splurge my money during weekends. That was hard but it's worth the price...haha.

To put things short...My old Toshiba laptop (Toshiba Satellite L100) who have served me since 2007 was unable to cope with the current softwares and such. Therefore I had to buy a new one in order to be able to play the games I wanted to play and of course to support my drawing apps such as Adobe Photoshop, etc.

Planned to get Alienware coz I thought that it's strong and definitely a good buy. But apparently it was way over my budget of 10k...LOL. At first I thought 15k was enough. In which I think I still can strive to buy. But deletes my wants right away after finding out the series that I am interested in starts at 18k? It's just too much a number for me who isn't a pro gamers who earns money through playing games using high end laptops. So yeah...it's a no no. Unless if I am a pro gamers...then perhaps it's a yes...

Somehow it made things easier though...I mean it only leaves me to one choice. Some people are telling me to get a Mac. But after changing job and am using Mac for the past few months...I am certain that I am not getting a Mac. Of course I can't deny that I really LOVE the screen. Images looks so amazing on Mac's screen. Even I can't stop looking at my own artworks or my selcas on Mac. What more with the new retina display...I think it'll be more awesome. But after giving it a thought...it's still a no. Considering that I just want a lappie which can play the games I wanted, for drawing purpose, to watch dramas and animes. 

Plus if it's good in my screen, it might not be what others sees in their screen. So might as well having somewhat similar with others. In order that what I see would be somewhat similar with what other sees...hehe. So yeah...it comes down to my 1st choice of all. Toshiba.

Prior to my experience with my first laptop which is Toshiba Satellite L100, I can say that I am a proud owner. My old lappie never fails in serving me ever since 2007 up to 30th April 2013. Except for that one time where there's problem with the screen which costs me RM600 to replace it with a new screen. Yet I think it's awesome enough to be living properly for 5 years plus and only broken down once. This first hand experience itself has lead me wanting to own my second Toshiba.

Planned to own Toshiba Satellite P850 due to it's bigger screen and equipped with i7. However it's a few k away from my budget. So I came down with the 2nd choice which is Toshiba Satellite P840 who is cheaper by a few k and it's pretty similar to P850 but with smaller screen and only has i5. In case you wanted to know the specs, you can click HERE.

Simple and cool

Left side of the lappie

Right side of the lappie

Would surely appreciate another USB port since my old lappie has 4 of them. 3 is kinda too little for me since I kinda need 4. One for my cooler, another for my internet USB, my external HD and another one for my wacom. But it's ok since I can always buy external USB hub. But till nao still didn't manage to buy one since I am too lazy to move around...LOL. So mostly I just plug out my external hardisk in order to get my wacom plugged in. Hahaha. (Update: Bought 4-port hub d!)

Harman Kardon® speakers, enhanced by SRS® Premium Sound 3D™

One of the highlighted feature was this Harman Kardon speakers. Didn't know much bout speakers other than Altec Lansing. So I can give no answer if this is good or not. But definitely the sound is GOOD compared to my old lappie. But old lappie speaker have no brand...so yeah...LOL! To put it short it does gives a pretty decent sound. Just don't go and compare to real speakers (external ones) to internal ones.

Some hidden card reader

Didn't notice this till I actually read some reviews on this lappie. And I rarely use card reader...so it's not that important to know of its existence...Hmm...Sorry card reader...Bet someone else would appreciate you more than I do.

Fingerprint Reader

LOL...this one is a plus since I didn't knew of its existence as much as the "hidden card reader". I think I haven't mention this before...But I honestly haven't seen any P850 or P840 before I purchased one. I just researched the lappie that I interested in through internet with the help of uncle Google. Then after I finalize I ordered it online. So when I did unbox and found this finger scanning thingy I was pretty excited since back in 2007 I was mesmerized by Moi Moi's white Toshiba lappie which have this function as well. It's pretty good if you're too lazy to type in your password to get in. Haha...Perhaps next time we'll get something more futuristic like eye scanning or face recognition thingy? Who knows...I think we already have this...Or maybe at the moment they only existed is futuristic movies only.

Top view on the keyboard

Seriously I am really really disappointed with the touch pad as it is NOT sensitive where it keeps giving me the wrong response and secondly, it's noisy when clicked! The touch pad on my old L100 was much much MORE more a winner compared to this fail touch pad...Most of the time I turn this touch pad off coz it just gets to my nerve each time I am using it. Shall only be using this during emergency...such as when my mouse die...LOL. But other than that...touchpad...u're good to be asleep!

Side view of the keyboard

Closer view

Keyboard in the dark

This is one of the awesome thing which comes with P840. LOL! Isn't it cool? Almost reminds me of Alienware's keyboard. Of coz in Alienware you can go and change its colour to suit your preference where else you can't do that with P840. However I think it's awesome enough considering the price and all...Not bad I would say. Not that it's so much of a help in the dark since I think I remembered most of the frequent keys used frequently. But yeah...they sure looks good aesthetically...haha.

CTRL + ALT + Z far far away

If I must state out my agony it would be these keys who are so far away from each other. In my previous lappie, they're close to each other and Z key's right end was just above ALT's left end. As someone who plays with Photoshop alot, these 3 are my most frequent used keys and nao it's so hard to press them. Somehao it reminds me of my piano class back then where I have to stretch my fingers. Guess I'd have to familiarize my fingers to these new placement...*sobs*

Directional keys are shorties!

Another disappointment bout this lappie would be the directional keys. At first glance the keys on the keyboard does look appropriate and beautiful. Yet after I played some games which requires the use of directional keys alot, somehao I ish not happy with the directional key's size. In my previous L100, they close to each other and the height is taller than this. If I can be picky (though I am aware this wouldn't make the key to grow taller magically....but...) I would love for the size to be similar with my old keyboard...Say W: 1.5 cm and H: 1.3 cm? That would be awesome!

Oh...as for tactile...it's good. You just have to use normal pressure to get the keys to read what you're typing. No complaint on this one. Except for my left directional key and "B" which I think less sensitive compared to the other keys. Or maybe it's my finger position that doesn't press right in the middle of the key...Does that affects the sensitivity? I dunno.

Also these keys are in black colours which I appreciate and it's not slippery...hehe.

Texture

Gotta love the brushed aluminium look on this lappie. Pro looking and smooth on the hand. It does get hot on the right side after using the lappie for some hours. But not too hot so it's still bearable. I assume the machine is located on the right side. Unlike my old lappie who gets hot on the left. Haha.

On a side note, I was wondering why there's no NVIDIA graphic card sticker sticked on the left part. Coz I see that usually lappie have them on the left part...Somehao my P840 have less stickers on it...Not that it matters much as it clearly does not affect the performance...Just saying the random stuff that passed through my brain...LOL.

Front shot

One last photo on Toshi-san

Another random stuff...I decided to call this lappie Toshi. Since it's name is Toshiba...But Toshi sounds cuter and it reminds me of Shinsengumi's Hijikata Toshizo (who appeared in the anime Gintama and Hakuouki as Hijikata Toushirou). So yep...it's settled...Its a He! Hahaha.

Ok back on the webcam, you can choose between 0.1 MP, 0.3 MP, 0.9 MP, 1.0 MP and 2.1 MP. Not that clear but sufficient enough to let people see your face...Hmm...On a bright side...they can't see your pimples! How good is that? LOLL!

For more informative and formal kind of review you can check out these two website which I read before I purchase this lappie HERE and HERE. They wrote better than I do! Their pictures clearly better too...FML.

Closer view on the texture of the laptop bag

As I said somewhere within this post, I got mine purchased through phone and got it delivered to my house. It's convenient as I am too lazy to go to Mangga Dua to get my lappie. Hahaha. The person who delivered me the lappie was nice too! Plus I thought that they're going to postpone the day to deliver the lappie coz it rained so heavily so suddenly that night. But no...they still deliver the lappie to me on the date said. What impressed me more would be on how good they protect the box that it didn't get wet at all despite the fact that the man who deliver them to me drives motorcycle.

And guess what...to my joy it was delivered to me on 1st of May! *plays "First of May" song by Olivia Ong"* LOL...what a nice timing I thought.

Btw I got mine here in case you're interested to buy a new lappie and such but am clueless on where to buy or too lazy to do research...And at the same time this is my way of giving thanks for their nice service. Hehe.

UPDATE: Adobe's CS5 are compatible with Windows 8. In case if you're wondering about this like I do before deciding to go with Windows 8. Been using Photoshop CS5 for quite some time and it works perfectly. And it seems like Flash Pro is working as well. Haven't really try to play with it yet...But I've tried clicking and it's opened...so I don't think there's problem with it. Unlike what I used to fear coz I've read somewhere that it's not compatible with Windows 8...(Or was it flash player? LOL)
