Post 528: Apple Mac iPad mini 16G Review + social and gaming etc apps + How i learned Katakana in less than a month (Requested)


iPad Mini Overview

Hi Dollies,

i have this for more than a month now and im Happy with it! 
if you are planning to buy an ipad mini, ill try to help you decide.
i Love everything about it from how thin it is, to how useful and fast it works!
i still think i have so many things to discover.

My Pink Case + Korilakkuma Pluggy Protector

Built-in Apps and My Apps
The Camera

The Camera
i love the simplicity of this device, even the camera, its 5mp
Autofocus, face detection. but no options like night mode, etc.
of course no flash.

Built-in Apps i Love
♠ Photo Gallery, Simple, fast!
♠ Safari Browser - the speed is fine with me that i did not even use chrome.
♠ Music and Videos
♠ Siri - i did play with her a little but im not too lazy to do things on my own most of the times hehe. one time i even told her to sing, she did but no tone ahaha!

for those who like book iBooks is available, i haven't tried face time

For more information on built in apps please click here

Apps from apple store
♠ Social: facebook, instagram, skype, and twittwer
-fb is working great on this one, you can even post status straight from your home page, as well as twitter, you just have to click the notification on the top and click post. i also tried to post an fb stat using Siri, she did great.
-instagram is a bit awkward because its its mobile size, you can full screen it but the text will be blurry, although the photos will look fine. i just use the small size coz im used to it.
-Skype is working great, the camera is also clear in the front.

♠ Photo Edit: Picsart, Decopic, Photo Toaster
Decopic resizing is not working properly on my ipad mini everything else is fine.

♠ Games: Temple Run, Candy Crush, Fix it Raplh, the Croods, Recipe Run, Avabel, Magic Tree. i only like Avalbel.

♠ Learning: Penultimate, Kana (for writing hiragana, katakana, kanji), Japanese (for sentences and words basic; SpeakEasy French. ill explain how i learned Katakana later in this post. Penultimate works amazing, i recommend you download it, and use a thin pen.

♠ Others: Super note. because ipad mini does not have a voice recorder, sometimes i record some of my lyrics, well one time hehe.

photos below are of my iPad mini screen shots, a week ago.




How to Learn Katakana
or any Japanese Writing

im so proud of me! i learned Katakana less than a month, in 3 weeks i think, and not daily. Each time my family are chilling in a cafe, i sit and sip, then i begin with my apps.

if the apps mentioned below are not available, please find a similar one.

Apps You will need
♠ Kana (for writing hiragana, katakana, kanji)
♠ Penultimate 


What To Do
♠ 30 minutes more or less for each lesson
The App have 10 lessons, sometimes when i know i can handle two lessons at a time i do that.
Take a Quize after the lesson. Quiz included in the App.
Practice Writing Using Penultimate or your Drawing/Note App.When i practice example: lesson 1-2, then i learned lesson 3, i will still write lesson 1,2, then 3, all together so i wont easily forget.

Gambate nehh! im going to learn Hiragana and Kanji too. Good Luck to us ^___^









Youtube, Reading Manga, Drama

i dont use the Youtube app, im too lazy to. Youtube works great on Safari browser and i can even see my playlist and everything.

The only problem is i can not stream korean and japanese drama straight from the site.
But if you download your episodes you can save it on your device and enjoy.


Manga: Kurage Hime / Jellyfish Princess

My Line Play Character, add me ;)

Review and FOTD: Etude Cookie Blusher and Dear Darling Petit Lip




 


Etude Cookie Blusher no 5

Pros
♠ Cute packaging and puff
♠ it has Gold Shimmer if you like a youthful and glowy finish like J. Lo
♠ Lovely teen-ish effect result, youll look younger in this color

Cons
♠ this kind of packaging can be seen in Tony Moly and other Korean brands too
♠ not that pigmented you have to put on 2-3 times to make it visible
♠ the lasting power is very usual..1-2hrs i think or 3hrs depends on the weather..i live in philippines hot and rainy all the time.

Conclusion
i love this color combined with the etude lip below, it gives a youthful glow so i like this despite the cons ;) the price is P328 pesos / $7.63

Will i repurchase?
nah..i want to buy something else from Etude and this will last me like a very long time ;)

Jewelry box, the design is so my type! ill post about this store soon :D

its around P400-500 pesos (the texture of this is not a paper box but a soft box)


its not a catholic or christian cross..its a Vampire Hunter cross lolz :))
i also own an Egyptian Pendant Cross. i cant wear the religious ones.


Tapout shirt for P300 from SM dept store..its for someone else =P
im against "Jacob" or werewolves, its not that im "team Edward"..i just dont like werewolves, i like wolves though, and vampires alot!
but the drawing/art is what i like about this shirt.





i actually have no idea what to buy, since im a person who is not fan of collecting so much makeup, i only buy what i will surely use or really want. i have everything i need in terms of makeup. maybe your needs are different than mine coz "different girls, different needs". The result of having everything i need is..i dont have anything on my buying list in terms of makeup. i need a new hobby next year prolly lolz all my craze dont last so long..
i need to buy new pair of pants, etc.

Finally some combs..mirror for my desk beside me. and again i ran out of time to shop..was not able to shop for pants, etc. 

whew! what a long post..anyway i hope u gals are having a nice time this holiday, im still hoping i can get some "Puto bongbong" :P
