Yes I've been using an iPhone 3 since last year when Mom left for Perth and gave me hers, but after all it's not really mine. There's no sense of belonging if you get what I mean.
I decided to change my phone (finally) because 1. Darren lost his and had to buy a new one = envy. 2. Mommy needs an iPhone in Perth so that she can communicate easily with us. Currently, only Daddy has an iPhone there and Mom only gets to Whatsapp us when he's home from work blah blah boring details. So now my grandmother who's going over to visit soon can fly this iPhone 3 over to her while I've my own!
The one I wanted to get was a 4S because I didn't really see the need in spending so much on the iPhone 5. Plus it seems to be out of stock everywhere? When I told the salesperson I wanted a 4S, she gave me a look of shock (I felt hurt) and asked, "Why do you want a 4S?!?!?! There's already a 5 and you want a 4??? So, which color of the 5 would you like?" She practically forced it upon me but I'm really thankful she did that. Everyone else was telling me to get the 5 but I didn't want to, but I guess there's no choice when you're being forced by a salesperson who refuses to accept 4S for an answer.
The thing that seriously puzzled me was, whenever people asked the counters if they've anymore stock for the iPhone 5, they'll just point to the signboard that states that all iPhones are out of stock. On the other hand, I've this salesperson who practically pushed the iPhone 5 to me with everyone looking at it in awe. Same thing happened to Darren! The lady asked if he wanted the iPhone 5 and the entire process was wrapped up in 30mins. While next to him there were unhappy people asking when would the next batch of iPhone 5 come in and making a whole lot of noise. Note that we went on separate occasions alone so I didn't need his charm to get it okay >:-}
It could be sheer luck? I don't know but I'm very very happy. Looking forward to taking better quality photos (while my sad camera is further neglected). Oh and I'm more excited about buying clothing and ribbons and pretty things for the phone than the phone itself. Phone accessory shopping tomorrow!
Happy Tuesday everyone ☀
