  1. Samsung Galaxy Tab

    October 16, 2011 by demitinay

    Samsung Galaxy Tab was foreseen to be the rival of the famous iPad– the revolutionary touch tablet. When it first arrived, my first impression of it can simply be described in one word: “amazed”. Well, yeah I was amazed. I was used to Samsung products because the company simply is one of the Asian company (Korean company to be exact) which is known worldwide for their innovative electronics and gadget.

    I was amazed at how bold Samsung was to launch a tablet to rival Apple’s iPad. And, in fairness to the Galaxy Tab, in terms of design, it isn’t left behind. Well, if you ask Apple fanatics, they’d go on about how the Galaxy tab is a second-rate copy of the iPad. For me, although Galaxy Tab really do look suspiciously like a copycat of iPad, it is at par in terms of functions. And one thing for sure, Galaxy Tab was the first to be sim-pack enabled.  One turn off though, Galaxy Tab was far too expensive when it was first came out.  Good news, it dropped about 7 thousand off after a few months.


  2. Rooney: Love Me Or Leave Me

    October 9, 2011 by demitinay

    Rooney is an American rockband which fancies itself with the music which invaded the whole world: British pop and 1980s rock.  They have a different style than most bands still existing this day. One distinct characteristic is the classic feel of rock and no “emo” rock.

    I can fully say that Rooney was not much of a hit-maker in the mainstream. In fact, if it weren’t for a friend, I wouldn’t have heard of them at all. But when I did listen to their songs, I was hooked to their beat and rhythm. Thought their songs exude a lot of elements but still do not sound so noisy and unappealing to the ears. The stories of their songs are also great due. They exude just enough drama so as to make you feel but not so much to make your heart bleed. They provide great music experience and if you are like me who are into the music of the Beatles, then Rooney will definitely a great choice.


  3. 3 Idiots: A Movie Review

    October 8, 2011 by demitinay

    I was not that into Bollywood movies simply because I find the sound of the Hindi language funny to the ears. This bias has kept me away from Indian movies for so long. I watched Slumdog Billionaire which is not really a Bollywood film but rather a Hollywood film shot in India. Anyway, it was last semester when a friend finally shared 3 Idiots with me.

    I instantly connected with the story of 3 Idiots because for I was an Engineering student myself for 2 years before I finally decided to shift to another degree. The movie also got me because I long for such a friendship the characters portrayed– one that can lost for so long, even after college.

    3 Idiots, as a movie, was a full package and I cannot categorize it anywhere. It has the elements of comedy, drama, and romance. The story is greatly woven and the cinematography is excellent. The actors and actresses were great and very talented. 3 Idiots will get you hooked into Bollywood that you will crave for more.
