As most of you know (those who follow me on Instagram or on Twitter), earlier this month was my birthday and one of my gifts to myself was a customized iPhone 4S case and skin. Many of you asked me as to how I created such a master-piece not to mention a majority fell in love with my design. Although I did not want to showcase the design this early but I was so excited by the amazingness of the design that I had to share it with you all!
So I will give you the steps to creating both your personalized case and skin.
This year it was quite different when it came to what I wanted for my birthday, I started acquiring most of what I wanted earlier this year therefore my wishlist was quite long but awesome! I will list the items I wanted and share some images with you guys. I would like to thank Papa and Mama though for being the main providers for most of the items on the list and well myself because I too like to spoil myself most of the time. And I would like to thank my lovely sisters for their spoiling! These are the items that I wanted and got.

It’s official, it’s December 4th again which means I am another year older! I can’t believe it, well wait scratch that I should believe it because we get birthdays every year! I feel so blessed to be around friends and family at this time and I consider most of my blog readers, heck all of you as my friends and family.
This year I got to turn the big 2-8! But technically I’m still 18 years old and I am still as young as ever! Age is nothing but a number right? :P Not only am I smarter, wiser, and amazing-er! I am lovely the changes that happened to me during this year whether they were good or bad I still loved every bit of drama and happiness that happened this year. Most of all, I love that I have a passion for what I do right now and even if it is just a part-time gig (might even turn it into full time or find something in the same area!) Telling people what to read and imparting them with my wisdom is one of my awesomest features and so if I get paid doing that, then so be it!
Just minutes after I was born, this snapshot was taken, my parents were shocked that I was their child! :P
I was looking through my previous posts, the best thing about having a blog is that you document such beautiful days and well I have 8 years worth of archives! I decided to share with you guys some quotes of different birthday posts.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MEEEEEEE!
I JUST TURNED 21WOHOOO! PARTAAAAY!
On December 4, 2005 [Celebration Part 1, Part 2]
Truly, it’s been a great day today so far and it keeps getting better! I guess this would be my BEST BIRTHDAY EVER! I can’t remember another one I felt this great in it!
On December 4, 2006 [The Celebration]
Another year passed by… today the 4th of December marks the day that I was born into this world. Some might love the fact that I exist and some might dread that fact and wish that I was never born, but to those who are mean spirited and such all I can say is “Hahahahaha I’m here and you can’t do nothing about it!”
I am ancient now, so I leave you with a picture of when I was in my golden years. Yes I used to be gold, no really, I’m gold.
I want to wish myself a happy birthday and sing to myself but I think I can sing internally. Now let me browse for that passport of mine, I want to travel on my birthday (which is not happening really but imaginative) Anywho Happy Birthday Me! I hope me 25th year is better than me 24th. Tee he he he he he :P Oh and this picture just made my week hehe and I had to put it up ;)

So, as you get older I believe your birthday parties seem to lose all their glamour that is if you have any or if anyone remembers you. I’ve been shocked this birthday because at midnight I had nothing not even one SMS, Phone Call, Tweet, Email, Anything at all from anyone, well anyone except Daddy because I am Daddy’s favorite (yes Dee and Nee I am dad’s favorite and you better believe it!) Seriously I love my Daddy and Mommy and sisters (yes Shwaish I said Mommy, it’s weird sometimes but maybe as we get older things might just might look a little brighter sometimes?)
I made it to 27 and I’m still alive and kickin’! That’s a good sign regardless of whatever is out there I am still alive, in good health, with loving parents, family and friends around me, and in as good a shape as I can be with all my gadgets! I got my inner gadget wishes come true! All that’s left is my emotional/head wishes wooohoo!

And this year there is no celebration yet as well I guess I got older maybe next week, the only thing that was awesome though is that my Aunt baked me some amazing cupcakes in which I had some yummy ones!
I would like to express thanks to God Almighty for giving me these wonderful years and surrounding me with awesome family and friends. Thank you for the good health (as good as I’ve got really) and thanks for my inner peace. Thank you to every person in my past, present and future, you guys truly mean the world to me and I appreciate every one of you!
Last year I had bought a Sony WX1 for my birthday, I loved it but one thing you should know is that my camera never stays with me for long because of my father’s job he travels a lot and requires a camera for those trips. He constantly borrows it and loves it because of the size and quality of pictures. So earlier in November he had come to me requesting me to order him a new camera and after research I saw the WX5 it looked awesome and felt amazing, so I went ahead and ordered it.
One thing I want to say about the WX5 is that ITS AN AWESOME CAMERA! I used to have some trouble with the WX1 where the photos get a shady black spot there but with this new WX5 I didn’t get any trouble with the pictures. The pictures all come out looking crystal clear.
Some awesome features available in the camera: 3D Shooting (which is amazing btw!), Sweep Panorama, Background Defocus, Intelligent modes and so much more! The only downside for me is the battery life as it can actually run out during the day if you use the 3D feature a lot! Overall if someone is looking for a compact point and shoot camera that has awesome DSLR features I would highly recommend this one. The price is awesome as well since it’s available at Amazon for the price of$298 [].
P.S. All upcoming pictures I post will show the awesome coolness of this camera!
It’s my 27th Birthdayyyyyy woohooooo!

"You got me a gift? Flowers?"
"Oh no you didn't! You shouldn't have!"
This weekend is going to be awesome, not only is it Birthday Weekend but there are two new movies out and I am going to one of them tonight and the other tomorrow!
I seriously can’t wait to see “Life as We Know It” starring my honey bunch Josh Duhamel and the boring Katherine Heigel but that’s the price I pay to watch Josh on the movie. (I bet that scene would be censored but it’s the price to pay to see Joshy boy!)
Tomorrow will be spent with family and Lujain going to watch “Tangled” the new animation from Disney! Now if only I can have her hair it would be awesome!
Another thing looking forward to is Saturday, birthday day and the day Daddy comes home with all my gifts and presents yay! One of the things I got myself earlier this year for free was the “Square: Payment System thingy for the iPhone/iPad which is cool” And just so much more! Oh and a haircut too! I dunno what I’ll do but something new and fresh at least!
I love December!
I am on a Birthday binge lately as in talking about it non-stop asking for gifts, creating wishlists, and now I have stooped to a new low and I am asking for the exact cakes I want for my birthday. This year has been a major year for me therefore I want an iPhone or iPad Cake! or something Apple-ish! The best examples of this is shown below and seriously loved them!
[Note: Birthday is December 4th and not now but I am crazy with Birthday fever]
Should I go with cupcakes?
[]
Or actual huge cake?
[]
Original idea []
So today I got a special package from Aramex courtesy of my lovely Mother, she went ahead and ordered the Apple TV for me as well as the MacBook Air 11″ maxed out model (a.k.a. 1.6Ghz, 4GB RAM, 128GB Flash Memory). I got home after a stressful day dealing with numbers and saw the packages already outside of their brown boxes and I went “Ohhhh NO! They unboxxed them!” Only to find that my mom had only thrown away the brown boxes and left me the toys with a letter addressed to me.
The note my mother left on top of the packages.
It was such a sweet move and seriously I can say she is the best ever! Sorry Dad you are not here to take the credit for this one but you can always have the fact that you got me the iPad 3G , iPhone 4, and MacBook Air 13″. So you are winning 3 to 2 :P
The Apple TV unboxed it is so tiny!
And you know what, it’s not only that I got my new toys to play with that made my day but also the fact that iOS 4.2 was also released today I was like “Could this day get any better!” I am seriously in love with this new child that is added to my family and until I can get some decent unboxing photos I think I will leave you with these taken from my iPhone because Daddy traveled with my Sony Camera and I can’t find a decent one at home to take decent pictures.
My portable children, in the back you see an iPad with my note, from the right MacBook Air 11", MacBook Unibody 13", and MacBook Air 13" (New).
Thanks Mommy & Daddy you are the best.
Sisters, you’ve got a lot to live up to in order to provide me with the birthday gifts yalla work hard you’ve got my Amazon Wishlist as well!
Time to hit the sack and will write more tomorrow.
So in less than a month I will be celebrating my 27th birthday (gosh darnit another year older, closer to that Old retirement home are we? :P) No seriously, I will be old but young at heart I guess. Therefore it is that time of the year where I write my Birthday Wishlist, however one thing that is different is I will include items I wanted all year long and those that were acquired will have a comment next to them, kind of to show me how much I love myself and my father since he is the one enabling me to be this way LOL!
So let’s go on and tackle what I wish for this year, and since I’m older I need to get more and more gifts!
- iPad 3G [acquired]
- iPhone 4 [acquired]
- Apple iPod Nano 6th Generation [acquired]
- Apple TV [acquired]
- Latest 6″ Wifi Kindle []
- Samsung Galaxy Tab (just because it’s tiny and pretty and I’d love to collect gadgets) []
- Blackberry Torch (Red) (just because it’s beautiful) []
- MacBook Air 13″ [acquired]
- MacBook Air 11″ [acquired]
- Kitten [acquired 2 virtual kittens courtesy of the iPhone4]
- Waterfield’s Muzetto Bag 13″ []
- The Vampire Diaries Merchandise [] [] []
This year seems to be a gadget year for me and most importantly it’s been an Apple year of products. I am seriously crazy and I think I need some sort of help but no I just love my gadgets and treat them as my kids.
So elves, get crackin’ and start buying me gadget shit, if you do then I’ll love you forever! They say a Sagittarian loves shiny objects and there is nothing shinier than a brand new gadget to unbox and unwrap and love and cuddle forever. (Yes I realize the last sentence had a lot of ands but I like it that way!)
I loves you all! Thanks for the gifts in advance, and yes I accept cash too :P
It appears to be that will be launching the Samsung Galaxy Tab within the next few days and offering it for free with some of its packages, now that sounds awesome! What’s even more awesome is that, this item although it’s not an product is on my “Birthday Wishlist” this year and so I think I need to get me some VIVA-lovin’ this time.
