Exploring the epitome of Pau!




So, I'll start with my name. I am Arianne Pauline R. Zarraga. A 16-year old girl who studies in College of the Holy Spirit of Tarlac. We are 8 in the family and I am the 3rd among my siblings. Now that you have a little a knowledge about me, I will share something about my exploration here in my crazy world!

I know I'm no ordinary girl coz' I believe that each individual is unique. I have my talents that are surely different from the rest. I am really into sports, volleyball, soccer and I even used to play chess and table tennis. But that lessened when i entered high school life. Dancing became my passion and I know that I am not just an average dancer but a dancer who can lead her people. I don't only live by this. I believe that I am excellent in my studies and I can prove it through my rank. I am rank 5 in our batch. Honestly, I'm still grateful and overwhelmed about this. I know I worked hard to achieve what I have now. I am also blessed with beauty that makes me stand out from the rest. God has given me so much and I make sure that for every success I have, I keep my feet on the ground.

I love extraordinary things. I become bored when things happen the usual way. Adventure is how I define life. We only live once so we must enjoy each day as if it is our last. But I never forget those who are less fortunate. I don't really let them feel that they do not belong instead I make sure that they feel that we are all equal.

Do you wanna know my greatest love? It is none other than MOTHER EARTH! I really get sad whenever I see people burning plastics, throwing their trashes everywhere and a lot more related to destroying our environment. I wish that someday, people will join the organization I will make for saving HER! Well, I think this is enough. Ciao for now! mwah*

Sony Ericson's w705 Walkman Phone

Check out Sony Ericsson's W705 Walkman phone with a MBS-900 Bluetooth 2.1 speaker supports 2.1 channels with integrated stereo speakers and subwoofer. The W705 is a UMTS/HSPA 900/2100 slider with DLNA-compliant Wi-Fi, shake control, a 2.4-inch display, and a 3.2-megapixel camera with a 4GB memory card, supports SE’s Clear Bass and Clear Stereo audio DSP systems, and has Bluetooth to stream music either to headphones or to the MBS-900. It also uses SensMe software that creates playlists based on a user's mood.


Connectivity is either wireless or via a 3.5mm input; we are thinking you will get better quality sound from the latter. The speaker has a monochrome OLED display for track titles and music settings, and has an FM radio. Music is automatically muted when the phone rings. I have idea when will be out but these products is expected to be launched by the 1st quarter of 2009.




Philips Luxe MP3 Player with a Bluetooth Headset


Philips Luxe MP3 Playe is a Boasting a prism-like motif and integrated Bluetooth 2.1 functionality that can be paired with the cellphone and never miss a call while listening to music, a one-line LCD also lets you view the caller's number. It hasn't exactly sent us into uncontrollable fits of jubilation of late, but the latest DAP to fall under the aforesaid umbrella doesn't look half bad.
It also has 2GB of memory, a FM tuner, Philips' proprietary FullSound for CD-quality enhancement of digitally compressed tracks, and a decent 10 hours of playback time with 100 hours on standby. The Philips Luxe MP3 player-cum-cellphone headset will cost approx $95; the device will initially be launched in Singapore next month for around S$139 ($92), followed by Thailand, Malaysia, India, China, and Southeast Asia.
