After a Month

It had been exactly a month since I started using the new iteration I the iPhone, the 4S. So is there any difference from the 4?

There is definitely improvement in terms of the Internet speed - since I often use it for tethering - and of course the excellent camera that came with the 4S. Not just the bump up in resolutions. The aperture, optics and the sensors were actually much better and for the first time, I won't miss a camera if I left them at home. During a few I my outings, I just relied on the iPhone. The video capture was no bad either. But I tended to use the camera more for the still than video. The videos I captured so far had been excellent, but at 1080p, the size was huge. I tended to do the editing on the phone using iMovie. It was more than usable.

How good is Siri? I must say, living in Malaysia, we would not be getting our money's worth. It was a luxury, not a necessity. In terms of processor speed, I did no notice much. This may be due to the fact that no many of the app utilise all the power.

Was it a worthwhile upgrade? Since I am an avid photographer, the 4S definitely got my vote. And I would upgrade just for the camera alone. It was that much of an improvement.

Slow Going Saturday

It had been slow going since the Chinese New Year break but I am expecting a deluge once the city dwellers are back from their holidays. After finishing my round and clinic, it was still only 11.30 in the morning.

I might as well just pack my bags and head home. Will be going to KLCC for lunch and haircut later. Then followed by the big FA Cup showdown at Anfield later on tonight! Happy Saturday!

Enter the Dragon

Impressive. That's all I can say. It was huge and even Irfan said so. The dragon in the main foyer of Pavilion. A huge one, gliding down from the seventh to the floor level on the second floor. All hung using pieces of string.

The main foyer was filled with ornaments and shops of course. But there were plenty to see though the place could be rather crowded. A definite thumbs up for the Pavilion on their efforts.

Buddy Bears Reunited

As mentioned last weekend, during my walk at Pavilion, I spent some time taking close-up of the United Buddy Bear by the famous fountain. There we certainly plenty to discover as the effort were much more intricate up close.

A bit of inside info on the project

At the end, I must say that my favorite was the Spanish one. It was pretty simple, mainly pattern of colorful tiles painted onto the bear. But they were colorful and ultimately joyful. That got my vote.

This is my favourite, from Spain

The African bears we not too bad either. Most of them depicted local arts and paintings. They also tended to be colorful with plenty of animal motif. The same cant be said about the European bears as they tended to be simple and bland. Oh well! Have a look and see what you think.

Teh Tarik it is

The admissions were coming rather too slow tonight. I decided to catch an early dinner but when I wanted to get out and pay, it started raining heavily. I was still stuck at the restaurant when I wrote this and the rain did not seem to be letting up.

Not much to eat here as I was already full and there were a couple of admissions waiting as well as a few other things to sort out in the ward. So, time for another cup of teh tarik! Cheers!
