Blake-ify It!

So today is a new month. One of the reasons why I chose to make a quick blog today was because it was Aiba Hiroki's birthday today! This entry's topic is somewhat hilarious in its own right, but might only make sense to me and my girlfriend.

But anyway, yesterday we passed by Data Blitz to pre-order Pokemon X & Y for the 3DS (since you know, we both have one) after a satisfying dinner at Ha Yuan Spring, a chinese restaurant along the back road of my office.

We went exploring a bit in Glorietta to look for some stuff before calling it quits and just headed off to Timezone to sing some songs. I had the mic for most of the time, and just like the fangirls we are, we usually enjoyed singing songs of Maroon 5 (because Adam Levine). One Maroon 5 song in particular would always have a "version 2" so to speak because of the different manner in singing it. The song? She Will Be Loved. The version? Blakeified!

As the term suggests, it's singing the song a Blake might have sung it. So the lower key, and just to add spice to the whole Shevine chemistry, flip the words around.

Another song she asked me to Blakeify was Vanessa Carlton's A Thousand Miles.

Needless to say, it worked.

I should find some more songs like that.

Samsung Galaxy S Duos

Since I started blogging, I've been through 4 phones that barely last a year. Let's have a quick recap, shall we?

• 9/5/2009 - Blue Nokia 2680 (9 months, 1 day)
• My New Gadgets
• 6/6/2010 - Black Nokia 2690 (1 year, 11 days)
• Atarashii Denwa
• 7/17/2011 - Black Samsung Champ Duos (1 year)
• New Phone
• 8/17/2012 - Black Samsung Galaxy Ace (6 months)
• New Phone (Yet Again)
• 2/16/2013 - White Samsung Galaxy S Duos 

This is the first time I've applied for a Data Plan and paying for it at my own expense, so it was pretty important to me that I got a phone that would last me longer than a year without fail. This was one of the phones that came free with my plan, and I'm quite happy with my decision!

This is my first white phone ever, so it couples well with my current White iPod 4th Gen Touch. 

When I obtained this phone, I was on a current shipping fixation that will probably last for the next few months as long as I live. If you don't know what the term Shevine stands for, it's basically a pair-up of two coaches from NBC's reality singing competition, The Voice. Which two artists you may ask? Blake Shelton and Maroon 5's front man Adam Levine! 

(Get it? Shelton-Levine? Shevine? Yeah, of course you do)

So it felt appropriate that to celebrate my fandom of their awesome bromantic pair-up, I decided to dub my phone Shevine. I will love this phone to death and enjoy the many wonders of it in the coming year(s). Data plans FTW!
