We never saw this sign when we arrived here at TI SpringCreek until Gary Wheeler told us about the sign. Sometimes, there’s this good feeling when you see your name posted.

Goin’ Texas

So, we arrived safe here at the hotel. Our trip went well despite of me feeling a headache everytime the plane takes off and land. It’s like my head will explode from inside. It’s probably the pressure or something. I don’t know but with this I’m starting to hate flying.

First stop was Narita airport. We arrived around 11:30-ish. There’s plenty of time for our next flight so we head to a place called Blue Sky and ate Chinese noodle soup. It looks good (and like what Naruto’s favorite) so we ordered one each.

We’re staying here at the Staybridge Suites at George Bush Turnpike. I’ve unpacked my clothes. Now we’re going to get our dinner. Compliments by the hotel. The food for today? Ravioli and Vegetable Salad.

Anyway, below are some of the photos during our trip.

I’m Going Back to GLOBE

Yep! I changed my TNT (Talk and Text) number and went back to globe.

I like the new one – the “Globe Tattoo Prepaid”. This time I think I’m staying as long as I can. Nahirapan pa akong maghanap ng SIM dahil ang gusto ko nagsisimula sa 917 like I used to have. Nawala na rin kasi yung dati kong number eh. ‘Yung 09174590520. Ang tagal din sa akin ‘yang number na ‘yan. At Autoloadmax* pa ‘yan. I think nung college ko pa ang number na ‘yan eh. Kaso ‘yun nga nawala eh.

Here are some of the promos that I like and most likely pushed me to go back:

  1. No expiration of load. Usual prepaid load has expiration of 24 hours to 5 days to a month. If you don’t use it all up by the time it expires, lugi ka. But by registering to IMMORTALTXT10, you’ll have 50 text to Globe/TM and 10 text to other network and it won’t expire.
  2. Call of 20 minutes for P20. Dito ako natuwa. Ang tagal ng 20 minutes kaya. With this it’s like P1/min. ‘Yan ang matipid!
  3. Internet and Signal Coverage. Mabilis ang internet walang duda. Hindi gaya ng ibang nagpapanggap na mabilis. Ang signal? Malakas. Dito sa bahay namin pumunta ang team ni Mo. Tingnan ko lang kung masasabi pa nilang ang prinopromote niya ang fastest. Ni wala nga kahit isang bar ng signal. Kailangan ka pang lumapit at sumabit sa bintana para makakuha ng isa o dalawang bar ng signal.

Peace! Opinyon ko lang po. Hehe!

New Phone: Sony Ericsson C901

I’m normally not fond of changing mobile phones frequently unless the one I have is nothing but a paper weight. So, after numerous research and lots and lots of thinking, I bought a new phone – Sony Ericsson C901…. and so far, I am liking it!

The photos I took from it was superb for a camera phone. The videos taken from this phone are not bad either. With its 5 MP camera coupled with a Xenon flash, every photo you take has that crisp output.

The phone package contains the standard set:

  • C901 unit
  • Earphone
  • Charger (with socket adapter)*
  • Manuals

* I think the socket adapter was given by the store so I don’t know if it is really was included on the original package.

I also got a free Sony Ericsson speaker. Great for listening some favorite tunes if you’re tired listening through the earphone.

And, oh, I also got a year warranty on the phone.

Here are some sample photos. The third photo was taken in pitch black with phone set to auto flash.

Here’s the phone’s complete specs from GSMArena.com:
