I thought the sky was weeping but its tears were blood
The sky is bleeding, we must fear the flood

A Country of Excess 2

May 6, 2008

Believe it or not, I just bought the Flo Rida Mail on Sunday album earlier at Burjuman.  I hear it being played at Virgin Records, asked someone what they were playing and got it.  Pretty good though for anyone who like hip hop, just don’t like it when he goes RnB.

 

Flo Rida, Mail on Sunday 

 

I also bought a JVC hard-disk drive video cam.  I wanted to get a full HD version but realised that to support it I also needed to have an HD or Blu-Ray DVD player and an HD TV.  Fair enough, that can be arranged since most LCD TVs nowadays are Full HD or HD ready already anyway.  I don’t have a DVD yet but, since Blu-Ray is on the rise, then might as well get one of those.  Who knows, by next year everything might be in Blu-Ray.  But, I also needed to have a Blu-Ray DVD RAM in my laptop which is already a little more excessive than I could accept.  I’d been excessive enough that day.

 

 

 

It’s even smaller than my SLR.

 

Anyway, I decided to get the standard definition cam because the quality was really good already anyway and I’m not really planning on making any documentaries.  Besides, a 60 GB hard-disk would probably only record about 2 hours in Full HD.  I don’t even know how long it’ll take to transfer that to your laptop much less render it into a DVD.  There were some direct to DVD version but I think it cumbersome to have to bother with micro DVDs and all that. 

 

In the spirit of excessiveness, I also bought two full suits at Zara, a shirt at Esprit and I think a couple shirts at Celio.  I’ve been materialistic in Manila, but certainly not like this.  A couple weeks back I also bought a pair of office shoes and two pairs of pants but that was necessity.  And I mustn’t forget my very first purchase in Dubai, the Xbox 360 and three original games. Crap.  That just makes me feel really guilty.
