Do you really, really want an expensive cellphone?
Posted by roanne in Boucheron, Techie Stuff, Vertu on January 19, 2009
Many of you would concur that most Filipino yuppies just can’t take their hands off the latest gadgets. Thus, they feverishly keep on updating and upgrading their stuff every now and then. Call it a trend, a status symbol, a sheer cry away from boredom, whatever, but wait ’til you see this cellphone bling-bling that’s way more expensive than your iPhone 3G or Nokia communicator.
Eat your heart out with this Vertu Boucheron 150 made of solid GOLD:
Vertu teamed up with French jewellery house, Boucheron, for this extra luxurious phone in commemoration of the latter’s 150th anniversary.
“It took 1,000 hours to cut into shape, 700 hours to hand polish, and more than 500 hours to build”, says the phone designer.
It comes with an exquisite wooden box made by Reuge, well-known Swiss makers of artisan music boxes to date. Upon opening the box, it plays Vertu’s signature Sandpiper ringtone with its custom-built brass music drum in it.
If you’re ogling to get own one and satiate your precious, imeldific frivolities in life, you can own half of the Philippines have it for a shocking price tag of $30,000. 
Three gifts I love.

Well, anyhoos, it’s not that I give because I expect something in return. Hey, Christmas is more of giving rather than receiving. I think maturity befalls me so easily that I never ever expect a gift in return, and it’s okay. I really don’t care about the present. Rather, I appreciate the thought of giving more than anything else. 
Enough gab and drama, I actually splurged one for myself. It’s a Birthday-slash-Christmas gift since I think I ought to be very selfish at times. So, I got myself an iPod Touch.
*iPod Touch is LOVE.*
On a geekier note.

Ok, ok. Back to our regular programming…
I currently have three homes.
1. House
2. Office
3. Starbucks
I happen to go to Starbucks a lot, which can’t be considered a pragmatic routine. Well, I do drop by only once or twice a week, everyday at max. 
But the real deal is, I usually stay up to 5 friggin hours playing psp, drinking coffee or juice, binging on sweets, listening to sedating jazz or bosanova music, bugging people through SMS, reading some didactic stuff (lol @ this one!) and of course, sleeping. Sometimes, I got company. Other times, I’m just alone in the couch, enjoying my solitude despite the fact that people sometimes throw wistful stares at me.
Going back, I happened to visit Starbucks in Araneta Center one time to check out if I can surf through the Net using my PSP. Great thing, they got free wifi access within the coliseum’s vicinity.
So, first up. I tried visiting Google. Let’s see if my SEO prowess works:
*Yayness, it works! I conquer the internet through PSP. *
