The weekend

Posted by Elliswordpress on July 21, 2012

Went to the Apple store today and saw the THULE sleeves for the Macbook Pro 15. Was pleasantly surprised at how good it looked and yet how rugged the thing was. Lots of nice accents around the body like the blue zippers and THULE logo tags. BUT! Coolest was how the padding and material felt so strong and rigid and the zipper lining made it water resistant. Very very nice. And the bet part? The Sony S15 dimensions fit the Macbook Pro 15 to a tee. Well off a half inch, but that’s fine. I am going to have a hard time choosing between this and the official Sony SE leather sleeve. I like official products a lot, but the THULE case is much much more protective and equally as stylish in my eyes. I am particularly concerned over the flexible nature of the Sony S15’s lid. I know Sony claims its better to be flexible than rigid for durability, but its really really thin and I’d rather have something nice and thick protecting it in my bag. Image courtesy of gadgetmac

Hit up a deliciously hot cinnamon bun at Cinnzeo in WEM on Friday when I was starving. The bun tasted that much better because I ate it first before dinner. So freaking good. And with extra frosting too!

Yeah I am a little obsessed with this. I don’t think I have been this excited about a piece of kit since….since my DSLR I think. I just love everything about it. I love how awesome it looks in black.

I love the rough magnesium alloy chassis the S15 is made of. It feels like sandpaper and is just so so nice in quality feel. It was a huge plus for me when I realized the finish was rough compared to the smooth texture of the outgoing SE series.

Checking out the Sony VAIO S15’s screen compared to the shitty TN panel in an e-series I think. Totally different quality and just super super awesome.

Bombed out on KFC 4 piece meal and McDonald’s last night. Chased two KFCs and they both said they were out of chicken. Waited a while to hope there was some left after somebody’s giant order and success! Very tasty and very greasy. The salad is so terrible now at KFC and the fries at McDonald’s were stale. Sadface.

W made a really really good spaghetti today for lunch and then I just bombed it out with sharp cheddar and parmesan and then a bucket of black pepper. Very very tasty and satisfying. But does remind me of the time I posted a photo of my pasta I had made and somebody I didnt know commented that it looked like shit and my privacy settings on Facebook were at max. Which really reinforced my notion that no matter what privacy settings you have, assume your content is being read.
