lately

Ok, here goes keeping this blog up to date.

What's been happening recently?

The thing that irritates me on a daily basis is my Samsung galaxy gio phone. The worst money investment ever. After 6 month of use battery dies in less than 8 hours of standby. I bought it to be able to sync my mail while on the move, yet I can't use we-fi because the phone can't survive that much power usage. Epic fail for Samsung. 

Few times I was very late for something, because after finishing recharging my phone at 11pm I would set the alarm for the morning, yet it would before sounding the alarm at 6am. I began using alarms on my tab. 

Samsung star than I had before was brilliant. Good screen, good battery, good usability. Too bad I gave it up for this atrocity. 

Of course, battery isn't covered by warranty.

Been keeping an eye for recent release in j-pop/j-rock area, found few promising bands. 

Oh ye, before anyone gets interested, I positively hate the idea of this EURO 2012 here. All the chaos they created "preparing" for it (reconstructions, constructions, take Paton's interchange as a prominent example - they've been torturing the bridge itself and citizens for half a year, still not done and what's more - never would be done properly), all the chaos they announced they'd create by closing major streets to the traffic for a freaking MONTH; all this for someone to steal more money and pretend we're ok. 

Pfff.

Just cancel already, who needs it here? Besides the prostitutes that's been making huge business plans... 

Oh yeah - decent women won't be able to walk the streets in peace now, we've seen sex tourists rummaging the city already. Now it would only get worse.

Pfff.

And if you can't cancel, just make it comfortable for people who live here. The people who wanted the thing here aren't the ones who have to suffer because of it.

Wasn't able to even try to paint something for my personal satisfaction, been too busy with work and kinda not in the mood. 

At least I've switched to English language mode again and don't start every sentence with '最近' :)

That's great.

Here's a pic that turned out nicely:
