A Touch of Glam on Your Touch Screen Phones

I got a new phone a little over a month ago to finally get in touch with relatives, friends and especially my spouse, who is always on the go. I was happy that my in-laws gave the phone to me as a gift, and that I only had to pay for my share in the monthly bill of the family plan they enrolled me in. And to my surprise, it was a little cute touchphone called LG Prime.

lg-phones.org

I was so happy to use it because the family plan included unlimited voice, text and data minutes. It was perfect for my browsing and messaging needs.

But there was only one setback.

It is quite hard to navigate the features in it because of the ultra-sensitive screen. Texting would only be a breeze if the keypad weren't small as I clumsily hit letters accidentally on the screen. Lastly, it would ometimes take a long while before I could click on web links accurately and it could all be just too frustrating to deal with it.

Before I  

And the solution -- the stylus! And here's what I found.

strapya-world.com

I prefer the key-shaped ones either in white or pink studs because it seems to stand out if I will hang it on my phone.

This will work too as my 2nd choice:

 strapya-world.com

Too bad, this can only be ordered online from Japan and I don't know if shipping $23 or so would be worth it. I'd like to be able to handle the item first before feeling it.

So what do you guys think?

Wallpaper Wednesday: Rainbow Kitty

Laptops normally have neutral colors primarily because of preference,  personality or appropriateness. Some would chose black so that it will be less embarrassing to bring it on business meetings, while the more loud colors are applicable to the young and hip who are are fond of showing their personality through their color choices.

Since my laptop is black, and was given to me as a gift, I'd occasionally add a dash of color at least on my window's desktop. I am most alive and kicking if I see vivid colors glaring through the monitor, especially on the "hapontukin" (afternoon sleepiness) hours. 

If you like to splash color on your desktop occasionally and love Hello Kitty, then you'd love this one. Sorry, I cannot translate the inscription on the wallpaper itself, but I got this from baby-kingdom.com. Just click to enlarge. Thanks!

Oh, if you happen to know what the inscription means, and if you know who the other characters are, you can help me by leaving a comment or by sending an email to mysanriospace@gmail.com. Thank you so much!

Gift Opportunities - Baby Showers

Aside from me being an avid fan for cute, kawaii stuff, I'd also like to impart this liking to others too hence, this blog. This also includes myself literally giving gifts on special occasions.

image: cherishedbydesign

When you think of giving gifts, think functionality, then see if it's cute enough to give. If the recipient has a wish list (or a registry), it would be easier. I'd just have to choose for the cutest in the list. Simple!

If it's a baby registry, I'd definitely pick the cutest one on the list. Otherwise, I'd be on the lookout for a Hello Kitty or Sanrio item, if deemed appropriate for the event.If it's for a wedding, of course I'd select a more grown-up, appropriate gift for the couple.

I recently had the opportunity to give one of my expecting friends  (now a mom-congrats!) a gift for her baby shower. Unfortunately, I was not able to attend due to unforeseen events, but still likewise happy to send them some love through a gift for the little one. Good thing, they had a registry set up online, and I was able to send the perfect gift for the little angel.

Bedtime Originals Hello Kitty and Puppy Fleece Blanket with Applique - Pink

Not only I chose this because it's kawaii-tainted, but I've also read through the testimonials, all of which had high (5-star) ratings, because of its softness and texture. And yes, my friend surely loved it!

 actual photo from my friend

How about you, how do you normally select your gifts?

Of Addiction?

Yeap! I used to collect them during my post-teen, wage earning years. I couldn't purchase plush dolls myself as a child and would rather splurge my allowance on my daily "nutrition" intake.

As I start earning on my own and discovered the addictive side of eBay, that's where the madness began. Self-confidence finally boosted after the realization of the beauty and trickery of online shopping where it felt that anything is possible as long as you have your income fueling you.

I may sound like I'm in denial, but believe it or not, not a bump in my body ever gets enticed in things that I see online. We can just say that the madness of online shopping was a phase I went through. Well, that's for he case for my former hk-sanrio addiction.

Okay enough of that before this post turns into a total bull.

But aren't they too good to look at? :) Admit it.

Will post more of them next time! :)
