09 Jul 2011 the thoughts
 |  Category: my life  | Comments off

Sometimes I think to myself, “why?”, why this and that. The kind of thoughts that constantly floods the conscious state of mind, which could drive one up the wall. Perhaps its all the pent up frustrations that is finally erupting on the surface, like a dormant volcano.

It could do me a lot of good, to actually thrash the issues and face it head on, rather than just sweep it under the carpet and pray it disappear on its own. Even death will not change anything one bit.

Its no doubt a painful journey, but I guess it can’t be helped, for the road to recovery is no doubt a bed of roses.

As I walk on and figure it out along the way, things are slowly becoming clear and apparent. Sometimes its the ugly truth that sets you free, because sugar coated words and bluffy fluff just obscures the line of vision.

Not to worry, I will be alright.

05 Jul 2011 First Impression of the LG E60 Monitor
 |  Category: my life  | Tags: ,  | Comments off

LG E60 Monitor FLATRON wide

I’m accustomed to seeing monitors with the average thickness of 2 magazines stacked together, thus when I was tasked with the opportunity to review the LG E2360 Monitor, I was taken aback by the slim factor and that the weight is definitely lighter compared to other monitors of the same dimension.

With thickness of 0.5″, it is no wonder that it was love at first sight upon assembling the monitor. Assembling took minutes and hardly broke out a sweat lifting it out of the packaging. And with full support for multiple interfaces like D-Sub, DVI-D, HDMI, it allows crisp display of graphics, enhancing the visual experience.

As we all know, the most power wastage device on PCs are usually the monitors. I’m pleased to learn that the E60 series consumes up to 45% less energy than normal LCDs, yet producing brighter and vivid display, in full HD-resolution. The monitor does not heat up too quickly, and that the eyes does not feel strained after using it for a gew hours.

Another plus point would be the ease of assembling and moving it around, without fear of dropping it due to the weight. The base shiny finish and the back of the monitor enhances the sleek factor, yet its easy to clean with a dry cloth to remove dust that gets attracted to the surface.

Now excuse me whilst I continue to be mesmerized and fascinated with the display, and I will let you know what I think of it. :) Check back soon for the full review!

so july is finally here… and this officially marks the second half of 2011. pardon me for not filling in this blog throughout june, as loads of personal stuff has cropped up and leaving me grappling and coming to terms with it.

its no mystery to what has happened, just that the severity was quite unexpected. but i hope it will be a thing of the past soon… and so, this post will mark the start of a proper recovery.

as i slowly get back to writing gradually, i will also take time to indulge in more things that i want to do. its a good way to destress i reckon. :)
