Mobile Carrier Switch

I finally had the guts to get rid of my Treo with Sprint. I kind of tolerated Treo’s malfunction for the past year. What I really hate with CDMA service is that I can’t change my phone. So here I finally switched to my former carrier, T-Mobile. My colleague was selling me AT&T, but there’s one feature that made me decide for T-Mobile. That’s SMS/MMS messaging rate for both domestic and international. Signal is no matter for me because whatever they say, that factor is relative.

I ported my old number to the new carrier so that I don’t have to inform people of my number. Besides, it’s free. Anyway, the porting should take about 48 hours, but after the 48th hour, I still didn’t have my number. So I called T-Mobile number transfer support and I found out that the pin# we provided was wrong. I had to reset the pin# via MySprint and it finally went through. The support representative was excellent and made the process very easy. This morning when I woke up, my Nokia 6301 was blinking its beacon telling me that the number was successfully ported. Finally I’m back to a normal telephone.

Now I should send my rebate form.

Fashionista Ka Pa Rin!

A few years ago watching people on Filipino TV wearing parkas bothered me. The country is very hot, yet people wore warm clothings. Nowadays with all the typhoons hitting the nation, I’m excusing such display. However, what bothers me now is the new trend that artists are starting in Philippine showbiz. They are now wearing scarves and shawls.

How cold is it in the Philippines for these “fashionista wannabees” to be wearing scarves and shawls? I strongly believe that fashion compliments the season. Aren’t these people scorching with scarves tightly bundled on their necks? I blame Korean Drama for this trend, but it makes sense in Korea because it’s cold there. Not in the Philippines. Do these people know that every time foreigners see them on TV they are laughing because of their so called “fashion” sense?

Panawagan, Christian Bautista… Hindi ka ba naiinitan sa porma mo?
