In the past week a lot has happened for me. On last Friday night, between midnight and 1 am, I got a new cellphone. My parents gifted it to me for getting the marks I got in the 10th CBSE Exams. Its Nokia 5800 XpressMusic. It was my choice. My parents told me I could have anything. I would at first interested have been interested in the iPhone. I loved the fact that it had a touchscreen so did the 5800. But there were a few thing I didn't like about the iPhone, like it been SIM-Card locked which means I could only use it with the SIM I had bought it with and unlocking it would remove the gurantee/warranty, a 2 megapixel camera with no flash and inability to take video, the weight and the cost. I liked the 5800 because, first of all it negated all the points I have written above and also because it's from Nokia. It even has GPS, which I may never use, but still IT HAS IT! Its got a 3.2 megapixel camera, full QWERTY keyboard (on-screen touch) but there are other modes too, like a mini QWERTY keyboard, regular phone keypad and also handwriting recognition, resposiveness seems fast enough. I have installed a few apps there. I will give full list of features and apps I am using at my tech blog soon, Inshallah.
Here is/are a few pic/pics of my cell model I got from the net:
This week, in class we had to talk (just self) about a topic. Its part of some Listening & Speaking skills, for which are (hopefully) awarded 10 marks in the term exam. 5 marks listening and 5 marks speaking. It was supposed to be on tuesday only, but owing to the number of students in class (now 50), it continued on Wednesday. But only 4-5 boys had to do it. The remaing from Saturday onwards. I spoke on the topic, 'Are We Addicted To The Internet?'. I made my point that we are not addicted to it, unless you call yourself being addicted to electricity too. Its just that useful that you seem addicted to it. This is the third time since I came to this school that I spoke in front of the whole class. First time was in 8th standard, we had to explain the basics of a drama given in the course book. Second was in the beginning of this term, had to give a factual description of the place we are from. And now any topic. Alhamdulillah it went well. At first I was a bit nervous, voice was not coming out right, hands were shaking too much. Bu thanks to Allah and the supportive nature of my class, I did it well. Something I said made the whole class laught and then, all nervousness fell out.
Then on Wednesday, one of our family friends (originally my mother's) came here. They actually had come to do something call Gulpashi or Gulpushi, or something like that, again for the 10th marks. It is some type of drama done in India. They got dinner of chicken as well as mutton kababs, biryani, two types of sweets. They also gifted me a watch. A Titan watch. I liked it a lot. The only problem is tat I won't get to wear it much as, its very formal.
Here are are a few pics of it too
So thats it for this week.
