Is the Olympus you have super small too? Anything 3MP or more is fine with me.. the main thing is that it has to be damn tiny 😉

the olympus camera doesn’t take good pics, we used it for our dinner party and all the pics came out whacky…go for the jewlery ;] hehe
D’oh!! What was bad.. were the pics too dark, or blurry, or..?
the photos we took outside were great. but inside it turned out red when downloaded. but maybe pei is right, might have been the wrong setting. its very cute though.
I have that prob with my camera too (Fujifilm 4.0 finepix) – pics inside (esp in low lighting) turn out dodgy.. and are really dark 🙁
that’s weird, i used mine in good and bad lighting and it was fab. something to do with your settings perhaps?
GoZing Winner…
Hey Bev, I am an MUA user and like to read your stories, lol! The $300 was a drawing on there you won to redeem for anything or a Tivo Player, cause on their website it has you as one of their 2 November monthly winners!
Heheh cool, they didn’t even tell me I won anything, just said “here’s a $300 voucher”. Thank goodness I can redeem for anything!
Hey thanks for letting me know 🙂
Re: GoZing Winner…
lol. I didn’t know how else to put my name, it’s GSXRGIRL, lol!
LUCKY! I haven’t gotten more than a buck or two from gozing.com… whats your trick??? By the way, I’d go with the third camera… the olympus one. Thats sharp, and olympus is a great brand. While the jewelry is tantalizing, the camera is functional and would be a wise way to spend the money. 😀 let us know what you choose!
I found out it was ‘cos I won the $300 for referring a friend, it was a lucky draw. No wonder, was wondering what sort of secrets I gave away if it really was for a survey, lol!!
get the Stylus Verve! i just got it and I LOVE IT!!
That’s the Olympus right?? What’s it like – quality wise, and usage wise?? Tossing up between a digicam or jewellery..
oh it’s amazing (yes it’s the Olympus). it’s small (the size of my palm and i have small hands), light, and very easy to handle. check my latest entry for a link to the official website with the specs…it’s 4.0MB, with 8x optical zoom. it also has a function that allows you to record as much video as your memory card allows (on my 512 MB, it’s about 30 min est.). it’s SO damn sexy!
Yeah I saw it in the stores and it was soooo sweet. I actually DO have a digicam but it’s bigger than this one! Ahh decisions decisions 😉
heh good decisions, at least! let’s put it this way – if i didn’t already own as much fine jewelry (thanks mum and aunt!) as it is, i would splurge on that. but if you don’t really have nice jewelry, then the jewelry is a good way to go.
Well, I figure a girl can never have too much white gold or diamonds right? 😀
yeah, but wouldn’t you rather splurge on like 18k white gold than 14k white gold? i also don’t particularly trust buying jewelry (esp. gold and diamonds) without seeing it up close either.
Ya I see your point.. it’s either a digicam (good ‘cos I want one as my old one’s yuck, bad ‘cos I technically don’t need one since I already have 5 digicams), or jewellery (good ‘cos it’s pretty, bad ‘cos I can’t see it in real life). So hard to decide 🙁 Seriously thinking of getting the mini digicam (as the Olympus is US$318! My g/c is only $300) AND jewellery.. that way I can get both 😛
HAH it *would* be nice wouldn’t it? but either way, i’m sure you’ll make the right choice for you…though i know which way i’d be inclined if that $300 were mine!!!! 😉

Re: GoZing Winner…
lol. I didn’t know how else to put my name, it’s GSXRGIRL, lol!
lucky ducky! 🙂 get the jewellery! I absolutely love white gold! 😀 I also love the mini digicam, I saw some at Dick Smiths and they were so cute, if only I had money *sighs*
I love white gold too, definitely better than yellow gold anyday!
The mini digicam was at Dick Smith??? I gotta check it out! Was it the 1.3mp one? It’s about AU$40 on buy.com
yes yes 🙂 white gold is the most superior of all golds! Rose gold is not too bad either I guess!
And yes, go and check out Dick Smiths (if you haven’t already done so!), I think it was about $39.95 or so, though don’t quote me on that 😀 And I’m also not sure if it was 1.3mp. I wanted to buy it for my bf for christmas, but he doesn’t have a PC (he’s a mac user!) so it wouldn’t have been useful at all!
Ooo I’ve hardly ever seen rose gold, is it more/less $$ than white gold, do you know?
There’s no friggin’ Dick Smiths around me!! I never realised that to yesterday when I was wandering around Sydney City 🙁
heh I did a 30-min survey a while ago and got nothing! 🙁
I never get anything immediately, it’s usually a few weeks later or something like that – so when I get something, I always go “WHAT is this for??” lol

Hmm .. it’s buy.com, right? How come I don’t see the jewellery?
nevermind, found the site. It’s ice.com, eh?
Yeah, Ice is a partner site so I think the g/c should work there.. at least I hope so!!
I swear you’re the luckiest person I’ve ever known 😉
I say get the rings 😀
HEY just thought of something! Is there any baby stuff you’d like from buy.com? Since I’m going back to SG.. maybe I could use part of the g/c for a pressie for Emily or something 🙂
That’s so kind and generous of you to offer, Bev! But I don’t live in SG so I don’t feel good about asking you to get me something using your g/c and then having you send it over to me. So maybe you can get it and then I pay for the postage for you to send over to me? I like this toy – is it too expensive? It’s ok if you want to save the money to get yourself something nice 🙂
Oooh yeah forgot you live in Malaysia! Sorry :X
The toy IS adorable 🙂 IT’s 7-8lbs though so let me check on how much it is from USA-Singapore-Malaysia – if it’s really insane I’ll let you know!
Ok! Hubby and I love hippos so it’s the perfect gift 😀
OMGGGGGG I just checked, it’s US$54 to get it shipped to Australia, then about US$45 to get it shipped to Malaysia!! That’s 5 times more than the cost of the actual product :X But if you can’t find it in Malaysia it might be worth it? LMK 🙂 OR if you want to get a light item lmk too, shipping shoudl be heaps less 😛
The PO really makes a killing..
EEEEEK! That’s daylight robbery! We should be able to get it in Malaysia, just not in where I live. Never mind then. Use the g/c to buy things you like 😀
Sorry :(( Wish it was lighter!! If you want to buy a smaller/lighter toy let me know? 🙂
That’s ok, Bev! Don’t worry about it 😀
Bummerrrr 🙁 Sorry ’bout that.. at least we tried! Maybe next time hey 🙂
Sure 😀
wow you lucky girl! i wouldn’t get the first camera.. small it may be but 1.3 megapixels doesn’t cut it these days.. unless you are sure you don’t ever want to have those pics printed out.
love all the jewellery but care the princess cut ring looks a bit ‘engagementy’ .. what will Chris and your friends think? 😉
I like the pink and blue ring (yes pretty colours) and the last earrings cos they are so different.
have fun deciding!
I have an obsession with teeny digital cameras, hence the choice of that first one, it’s so little!
You’re right about that “engagement” ring.. I didn’t even notice when I saw it 🙁 Just thought it was sweet!
OMG, you are soo lucky!! I hardly get the survey invitaions. 🙁
Anyway, I think having jewelry would be really cool! Have fun deciding~! 🙂
I only get 1-2 a month I think, and not all pay well, most are just a few bucks!
Aren’t you so so lucky! I signed up but there wasn’t any survey notifications for the longest time!
Ok, my paypal ID is [email protected] and you do the convert, it’s ok 🙂 We’ll meet when you come back to Sg! How long will you be here?
I don’t even remember the survey I did! $300 is heaps of money to me so I’m happy 🙂 Going to Paypal now.. I’ll be in SG between Xmas and NY only, not very long unfortunately 🙁 Where is the Char Kway Teow place that you said was good? Maybe we can meet there!
The Char Kway Teow is at Margaret Drive. let’s meet in town instead?
Oh, damn.. yeah, town is better then. Are you pretty OK for time during Xmas/NY? Maybe a quick catchup over coffee or something 🙂
Sure! Just let me know when you’re free.
I have a similar Canon camera and it’s amazing. I think it’s probably the best brand of camera’s for the moment. 🙂
I’ve just signed up to take survey’s as well. I hope I’ll be as lucky as you!
Is the Canon really small, do you know? I’m after a teeny digicam with super good quality 🙂
I don’t really know about the size but the quality is amazing.
I have a Cannon IXUS 500, it’s small but not compact enough to fit into your pocket which I’m bummed about. I’d go with the Casio Exlim or the new Panasonic one that is out, can’t remember the name tho, my bf got it when we were in Japan. It’s gorgeous and thin and 5 mega pixels.
Ohhh I haven’t seen the Panasonic one! My friend has a really small Pentax one which is nice too – I basically want them as small as possible 😉
It’s Panasoic Lumix FX-7, it’s only available in Japan at the moment tho 🙁 I thought it would be here by now. It’s very small, it can fit it into the back pocket of my Sass & Bide East Village Hipster jeans (which are kinda snug fitting)
*gasp* that’s beautiful!! I love the bronze one and the LCD screen is so nice and big.
lucky ducky! 🙂 get the jewellery! I absolutely love white gold! 😀 I also love the mini digicam, I saw some at Dick Smiths and they were so cute, if only I had money *sighs*

That’s 5 times more than the cost of the actual product :X But if you can’t find it in Malaysia it might be worth it? LMK 🙂 OR if you want to get a light item lmk too, shipping shoudl be heaps less 😛
The PO really makes a killing..
EEEEEK! That’s daylight robbery! We should be able to get it in Malaysia, just not in where I live. Never mind then. Use the g/c to buy things you like 😀
Sorry :(( Wish it was lighter!! If you want to buy a smaller/lighter toy let me know? 🙂
That’s ok, Bev! Don’t worry about it 😀
Bummerrrr 🙁 Sorry ’bout that.. at least we tried! Maybe next time hey 🙂
Sure 😀
wow you lucky girl! i wouldn’t get the first camera.. small it may be but 1.3 megapixels doesn’t cut it these days.. unless you are sure you don’t ever want to have those pics printed out.
love all the jewellery but care the princess cut ring looks a bit ‘engagementy’ .. what will Chris and your friends think? 😉
I like the pink and blue ring (yes pretty colours) and the last earrings cos they are so different.
have fun deciding!
I have an obsession with teeny digital cameras, hence the choice of that first one, it’s so little!
You’re right about that “engagement” ring.. I didn’t even notice when I saw it 🙁 Just thought it was sweet!
OMG, you are soo lucky!! I hardly get the survey invitaions. 🙁
Anyway, I think having jewelry would be really cool! Have fun deciding~! 🙂
I only get 1-2 a month I think, and not all pay well, most are just a few bucks!
Aren’t you so so lucky! I signed up but there wasn’t any survey notifications for the longest time!
Ok, my paypal ID is [email protected] and you do the convert, it’s ok 🙂 We’ll meet when you come back to Sg! How long will you be here?
I don’t even remember the survey I did! $300 is heaps of money to me so I’m happy 🙂 Going to Paypal now.. I’ll be in SG between Xmas and NY only, not very long unfortunately 🙁 Where is the Char Kway Teow place that you said was good? Maybe we can meet there!
The Char Kway Teow is at Margaret Drive. let’s meet in town instead?
Oh, damn.. yeah, town is better then. Are you pretty OK for time during Xmas/NY? Maybe a quick catchup over coffee or something 🙂
Sure! Just let me know when you’re free.
I have a similar Canon camera and it’s amazing. I think it’s probably the best brand of camera’s for the moment. 🙂
I’ve just signed up to take survey’s as well. I hope I’ll be as lucky as you!
Is the Canon really small, do you know? I’m after a teeny digicam with super good quality 🙂
I don’t really know about the size but the quality is amazing.
I have a Cannon IXUS 500, it’s small but not compact enough to fit into your pocket which I’m bummed about. I’d go with the Casio Exlim or the new Panasonic one that is out, can’t remember the name tho, my bf got it when we were in Japan. It’s gorgeous and thin and 5 mega pixels.
Ohhh I haven’t seen the Panasonic one! My friend has a really small Pentax one which is nice too – I basically want them as small as possible 😉
It’s Panasoic Lumix FX-7, it’s only available in Japan at the moment tho 🙁 I thought it would be here by now. It’s very small, it can fit it into the back pocket of my Sass & Bide East Village Hipster jeans (which are kinda snug fitting)

*gasp* that’s beautiful!! I love the bronze one and the LCD screen is so nice and big.
lucky ducky! 🙂 get the jewellery! I absolutely love white gold! 😀 I also love the mini digicam, I saw some at Dick Smiths and they were so cute, if only I had money *sighs*
I love white gold too, definitely better than yellow gold anyday!
The mini digicam was at Dick Smith??? I gotta check it out! Was it the 1.3mp one? It’s about AU$40 on buy.com
yes yes 🙂 white gold is the most superior of all golds! Rose gold is not too bad either I guess!
And yes, go and check out Dick Smiths (if you haven’t already done so!), I think it was about $39.95 or so, though don’t quote me on that 😀 And I’m also not sure if it was 1.3mp. I wanted to buy it for my bf for christmas, but he doesn’t have a PC (he’s a mac user!) so it wouldn’t have been useful at all!
Ooo I’ve hardly ever seen rose gold, is it more/less $$ than white gold, do you know?
There’s no friggin’ Dick Smiths around me!! I never realised that to yesterday when I was wandering around Sydney City 🙁
heh I did a 30-min survey a while ago and got nothing! 🙁
I never get anything immediately, it’s usually a few weeks later or something like that – so when I get something, I always go “WHAT is this for??” lol
So …
So it’s true. God does love beautiful people more!
Re: So …
Huhhhh that’s a crazy thing to say!!! Besides, that would include you 🙂
Hmm .. it’s buy.com, right? How come I don’t see the jewellery?
nevermind, found the site. It’s ice.com, eh?
Yeah, Ice is a partner site so I think the g/c should work there.. at least I hope so!!
I swear you’re the luckiest person I’ve ever known 😉
I say get the rings 😀
HEY just thought of something! Is there any baby stuff you’d like from buy.com? Since I’m going back to SG.. maybe I could use part of the g/c for a pressie for Emily or something 🙂
That’s so kind and generous of you to offer, Bev! But I don’t live in SG so I don’t feel good about asking you to get me something using your g/c and then having you send it over to me. So maybe you can get it and then I pay for the postage for you to send over to me? I like this toy – is it too expensive? It’s ok if you want to save the money to get yourself something nice 🙂

Oooh yeah forgot you live in Malaysia! Sorry :X
The toy IS adorable 🙂 IT’s 7-8lbs though so let me check on how much it is from USA-Singapore-Malaysia – if it’s really insane I’ll let you know!
