Hamburger

Nope, this is not a post about food. Lol. I will go further into details later.

I feel really sick and drowsy right now. Took MC earlier, was supposed to go for a course early today but decided I am not in the mood to travel to the other end of Singapore for a 4 hour course that I can learn from my colleagues anyway. Might as well stay at home and blog right? Haha!

But seriously, I already forced and dragged myself to Simei yesterday for my Thai lesson. For the whole 1.5 hours I was busy blowing my nose and barely concentrating on what my teacher was teaching. So logically speaking, will waking up at 7am, followed by dragging myself all the way to Jalan Bahar to sit through a boring 4 hour talk, feel any better than yesterday's 1.5 hour of lesson that I actually enjoy going for? I seriously doubt it. Might as well take MC. I have another long day shift tomorrow. I think. Or am I working night shift instead? Now I'm confused.

Anyways, back to why I named this post Hamburger. Met one of my friends after lesson yesterday for a late dinner. Decided to eat at Serangoon. And since it's so near Mustafa, might as well take a walk right? Lol. Yeah, I know I'm sick, but even then I cannot pass up the chance to shop there. It's Mustafa! They have EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING except maybe cable ties haha. A friend tried looking for those once and the staff told him they don't carry cable ties, I guess for obvious reasons hehe. Well, still, I love going there. So many things to see (and buy, unfortunately).

Okay okay coming back to why I named this post Hamburger. I was aiming this X-mini speaker for some time already, 'cause my laptop speakers were driving me crazy. Hated those in-built speakers that came with my laptop. While walking through the Audio section my friend and I came across this that looked the same like the X-mini:

Hamburger Mini Speaker


I already read good reviews about the X-mini, but I was still skeptical about the extremely small speaker size. After spending a long time contemplating, we decided to ask the salesperson to let us try out the Hamburger speaker.



Damn small right


It's damn good lar! The sound that came out of that small little thing was amazing. It owned my silly laptop speakers hands down. I promptly decided to buy it regardless whether it was a rip off from the X-mini or whether the X-mini was rip off from the Hamburger. I don't care. It sounded amazingly good for a small $29 speaker. Although I haven't heard how the X-mini would sound like, I seriously don't think there would be much difference. And no, I'm not doing an advetorial either. Heh.

I also bought a nice new red and black mouse :)





Tired of my fingers cramping everytime after playing COD 4. Was using the free laptop small mini mouse since I bought my laptop, finally got around buying a new nice big mouse to fit my fingers hehe. What I love about this mouse? No blinding laser beam! The lens is actually invisible. No irritating red light, I love it :) Another thing why I love it? The packaging says 500-1500 dpi. I guess that should be fairly adequate for me to play my online games ;p Saved some cash by buying this $18 mouse instead of a Razer mouse :))) Again, I am not doing an advertorial, just my honest opinion!

Okay I'm gonna lie down now, I feel really light-headed. Gonna spend my remaining off day sleeping, breaking in my new Hamburger speaker and testing my new mouse with COD 4. After nearing the end of this post I also realised I'm may be flamed by ALL X-mini and Razer mouse fans. Oops. No offence, people!

Back to my drug-induced sleep!
