About Me

My photo
ella. twenty-one. everything on impulse.
This blog's intended to be an online journal of some sort where I post my ramblings and obsessions, where I share photos of my walks, where I tell you how awesome my day went or how crappy it was. No, this is not a diary because no matter how personal it gets here, I still have the liberty to keep to myself the names of the people I want dead.

She presses on, enthusiasm kindling within her.

The title of this post was a sample sentence in the "Kindle" definition wallpaper which was the first thing I saw when I turned on my newly purchased Kindle 3 Wifi. To be able to store 3500 e-books basically enables the user to carry his whole library with him! oh boy! No need for paperbacks that get borrowed by friends or dormmates or officemates, and eventually get lost. The owner just can't track 'em anymore. With the kindle, you could stay on track in your reading list and listen to music too! It has an MP3 player but you can't choose the tracks to play on your whole music folder, you just either pause or skip to the next track. This feature needs some upgrade in the near future. Plus you can't read in the dark since there's no built-in light (which is also a plus on the energy-consumption side, the kindle could last up to 3 weeks!). And the e-ink technology ensures that there'll be no glare when you read under strong external light. The kindle is like printed text, it's black and white. and with wifi, browsing the net in B&W is surely something new. haha. I love, I love, I love my new baby. :) Now I can reread my Murakami books. Murakami, hands down, writes the most beautifully surreal sad fiction.

a crappy photo of my kindle. I love how the wallpaper changes everytime you put it on sleep mode.
