Enter The Camus

After much toiling, and debating, and agonizing, I finally went ahead and bought myself a new camera. Everyone, please meet, Camus the Camera! A Sony Cyber-shot w80.

And yes, he is pink. Thus the name (named after girly-looking guys because like Sasarai, Camus is a guy who looks excessively like a girl. Not that I don't think that is hot XD). I already have a digicam actually, but that one doesn't take very good pictures in dim lighting. And besides, right now it's a bit out of...commission. Been wanting to have him fixed but haven't got the opportunity hehehe...

Took a bit of browsing before I actually bought this one. I searched around at the available models. tried them on, the went online to look for user reviews. I had several things to consider, one being the quality of pictures it take in dim lighting, price, functionality, appearance and of course, whether it'll still be relevant in four years to come.

If you hadn't gone digicam browsing lately, you'll notice that most of the new Sony cameras are touchscreens. Not that I mind too much with touchscreens, but...you know. I am a clumsy person and such, so enough said about that.

The wonders of browsing around Sg. Wan led me to the realization that I could get the camera for cheaper than the list price of RM999 and with a free 1GB memory stick! I found RM950 and RM920, but thankfully they don't have pink ones. Until finally I went to this store where my dad bought my last digicam and they offered me the same package for the price of RM899! Plus I get a free pouch!

The pouch is dull and black, and the sale assistant know too well that I would replace it as soon as I got it. But for now it is Camus's sleeping bag, until I can find a better one, who knows?

I saved rm100. And that, my friend, is a lot of money XD. I could buy a pants or a shirt from Padini Authentics with it.

My sister is coming over from Kuching tonight to go watch Backstreet Boys concert tomorrow night. Glad I don't have to go. Not that I don't like BSB, but the timing is not right. I'd rather sit at home and watch TV than go out and see the concert :/.

I'm very busy these days you know.

Till next time.

Ta'ra!

Marrick's Diary 2

Hello, it's me again, Marrick, your friendly neighbourhood aircooler.

After my previous post, Watashiwasan-sama updated the pictures of my current abode. There are several additions, but none of them electronics, so no new friends so far.

Anyway, here it is. I hope you like my new home!

Bye bye!

Marrick's Diary

Hello, my name is Marrick, and I'm an air cooler. Nice meeting all of you. This will be my first blog entry, since my Mistress is too lazy to update.This is my good side.
Up until February, I've been living in my box. His name is Steve. Hi Steve!
Steve is a little cranky since it's early morning and such.

I've moved to this new house, also in Puchong. When Mistress packed me up into Steve, she didn't take me out again until we move. I thought she was moving again, but it seemed I was being deported. But you know, I'm being put in good use here, since well, I'm probably just a space hogger back home. What an aircooler to do, right?
This is my new room.

It's not much, I know, but this room is left bare because it's going to be used as a studio. The mistresses of the house are amazing artists you see. I am excited to the see the masterpieces I'm going to help cool.Atzie-sama totally didn't like the fact that she had forgotten her own pillow for that night. She had to put up with a crummy sofa pillow due to that. But I was there, and she was happy that at least I was a familiar face in unfamiliar territory. *smiles*

Well, since I'm here, might as well give you a tour of my new pad. This is the living room.


Mistress and her friends had a little party the night after we moved in. After all the eating, she stayed behind to watch some porns. I probably shouldn't tell you this, but just for the record, it wasn't very good porn. No hot gay scenes, but just hinting on guys' love. I know, cause Atzie-sama ranted about it before she went to bed. As a trustee aircooler, all I could do was listen. Atzie-sama has interesting rants. I'm sure you are familiar with them.

Well, back to the tour. This is the kitchen. Mistress and the dwellers of this abode bought a new sandwich maker machine. I think Mistress is thinking of having another one at home in BB. It makes good sandwich, aye.


This is one of the dwellers in this abode. She shares Atzie-sama's name, and from now own she is going to take care of me. So far, I haven't been abused but I did make a new friend. She has a lappy, I think his name is Rikimaru. Most of the time I help keep Rikimaru cool instead of Atzie-sama's name twin. Rikimaru reminds me a lot of Kuja-niisan, cept his gray. I heard Kuja-niisan recently got 'up'graded. He has a throne now.



It's a self-cooling throne too I hear. That's great, I told him. Now you can call yourself "His Majesty Kuja of the Silver Throne". Though now I think it was a bad idea to tell him about it since it's stuck on him now. *sighs* I have a feeling soon I may have to start calling him Kuja-niisama.

The pictures are a little outdated, since now there are new furnitures in my new home. I'm really happy to be with this new family. Thank you Atzie-sama for letting me stay with these people. I hope you are not in any hurry to get me back, since Steve is also enjoying himself.

Well, that is all for my first ever blog entry. Rikimaru said he feels a little hot, and needs a little cooling.

That's my queue to get back to work. Thank you for the opportunity and I hope I can blog again.

Bye bye.
