    On the subject of Christmas, I am furious.
    My parents had offered to buy me one of the 3g Ipads so I could take notes on it in class and whatever, but there's rumors that the Ipad2 is supposed to release around February.
    So there's no point in buying one when a new and better version will release in a few months.
    But I'm also about as impatient as they come.

    On the subject of Star Wars, it just never really caught on for me.
    My boyfriend owns all the movies and whatever, but after about 5 minutes, I get fidgety/bored and stop watching.

    Yeah I got that one too, for my graduation. It's so pretteh! Never wear it though >.<

    I dont understand why everyone is for multiple smaller presents. Isn't it nicer to give one present that will mean alot to her, instead of 2 presents that won't be as memorable? I don't like getting tons of presents because then the "specialness" or whatever just gets less, but that's just me :p I'm known to have expensive taste so I guess thats why I never get more than 1 present... QQ

    If she likes you back it won't matter as much what you give either, she will treasure it whatever it is. Just make it personal.

    That's just because you hate Apple products and we all know this.

    I hate apple. Yes. But that doesn't mean the Ipad isnt complete shit.

    Here are its flaws

    1)No flash
    2)No keyboard (ever tried to take notes on a touchpad? It sucks massively. A Netbook will give you ten times faster typing speed. So you can keep up with your professor)
    3)Its touchscreen. Probably the worst thing for taking notes. write to fast, and it doesnt capture everything, write slowly and you fall behind in your notes.
    4)Tiny amount of applications support. Want to use it for anything but taking notes/small games? good luck
    5)You cant replace the battery.
    6)No security at all
    7)NO FUCKING FLASH
    8)You have to use safari
    9)Overheats


    I'm just trying to prevent you from wasting 500 dollars for no reason at all :(. You wont want to use it in school. If thats what your planning on doing. You can get a lighter netbook for cheaper.

    I'll be honest. I was excited for the Ipad before it came out. They design concept was great. The implementation was epic fail.

    Obviously you wouldn't take notes on a touchscreen:
    Problem solved

    The second release of the Ipad is supposed to change a lot of things, so I'm not so concerned.
    Ipads were never meant to be a replacement for a computer, it's just an extensionary tool really.
    I already have an Imac, and a macbook. So I have no need for another 'computer' of sorts.

    I don't have an iPhone because I have service with Verizon.
    I'm mostly just looking for something a smidge smaller than my macbook than i can use to quickly look up things if needed, or to dick around with on long car rides, etc.

    Ehh we threw a party a year or two ago at our house and someone spilled a drink all over my macbook.
    As a result, the macbook has to be plugged into a powersource at all times or it won't work.
    Not a problem at home obviously, but there's not really just outlets all over the place at university to plug into.

    Also, I HAVE A VAGINA.
    ): ): ):

    so? Fan boy is a term this days.

    Also. Pics or I don't believe you? XD

    And if you where not obsessed with Apple so much, you would realize you could get a more powerful netbook for 200 dollars.

    It's not really an obsession, it's just whatever you're used to really.
    I'm always using Mac OSX interfaces, so obviously it's annoying as fuck if I try to switch and use something Vista/Windows 7 because I donno what the hell I'm doing (:

    But feel free to add me on facebook if you don't believe my gender (pm and I'll obviously give you my real name)

    Ipads are mostly cosmetic imo. Gotta agree, a better notebook costs less even.

    You've gotta be honest with us. Are you even on her radar? Or are you just "that friend" who hangs around hoping something will magically happen? Cause if that's the case, you'll just end up losing your money and then pushing her away (if she doesn't see you in the same way).

    I would save my money, grow some balls and then ask her out on a date (using that money to do something fun with her).

    Then once you get to know her, you won't need to ask for this type of advice :)

    Well I'd suggest a vibrating underwear.. but that's only if you watched 'The Ugly Truth' with her!
    That'll be the only way you'll get what i mean..
    but if not then i would say 2 separate ones cause it'll impress her more!

    I kinda wanna get an xmas present for this girl i like, plus her birthday is near christmas as well.

    Should i get her two seperate gifts or combine into 1 large, awesome gift O:

    Well idk. We've gotten pretty intimate a couple of occasions. I hugged her a few times before, and she leaned on me a couple. (well kay i dunno culture difference or something but in Asia this already means alot.)

    I don't wanna ask her out yet, not so soon. She just broke up like about 2months ago. Last thing i wanna do is come off as a jerk.

    I saved from oct till christmas. and all i got is about US$100. Can't do much wit dat.

    See. All wrong.

    You should have came in as her rebound, then wowed her and stayed on permanently. If you wait long enough for her to swear off guys, shes just going to be single till some hot guy comes along and she forgot that even happened.

    Well when a girl's depressed and sobbing all day long i kinda find it hard to say: I really like you, would you like to go out with me?

    Then again her being depressed is the reason why I even got close to her in the first place.

    Hmm, k maybe its just culture difference, iunno. We chinese folk. >_>.

    Well, I've done some thinking, definitely confessing to her on xmas!

    See you dont get it though. :|. Whenever a girl gets dumped, or even does the dumping. She feels really really alone, and starts to worry that she will never find someone who will accept her for her. And thats whenever she is the most vulnerable. She wants to be held, so she feels less alone. :|.

    But if your going to confess. Do it right. Dont fuck it up. Dont do it with other people around.

    Because of cultural differences, I cant tell you what to do exactly.... but if my internet research on asian ladies is correct. Just pull out your dick. Those girls are horny.......

    3. Don't take relationship advice from iargue. He likes to think he knows it all but like I remind him every now and then, he is still single. I try to use this as a last straw but honestly he is giving you SOME bad advice.


    you are my hero.

    Protips;
    1. Dont rush her and be the rebound guy. But it's been 2 months so you're cook. Rebounds are (generally fairly quick after the breakup. You don't want to be the rebound guy because, quite frankly... Rebound relationships are just that... They get her back on her feet and confident then it's bye byes.

    2. Don't be the friend that is always there. I do agree with iargue (for once) that you need to grow a pair and ask her. If you linger too long in the friend zone that's all you will be.

    3. Don't take relationship advice from iargue. He likes to think he knows it all but like I remind him every now and then, he is still single. I try to use this as a last straw but honestly he is giving you SOME bad advice.



    How the fuck is my advice bad?

    Like I said be the rebound guy, and then be good enough that she keeps you.

    Its probably his best shot. :|
