I woke up, I didn't need to register what to do next, I ran straight to my laptop to check out how was it. I almost panicked seeing it's sudden pause last night. It's dying. I didn't care anything much except for my data's which needs to be transferred immediately but the funny thing is it can only detect my 3.5 GB pen drive. sigh* Anyway, writing here won't be any help. So, I want to talk about how today's toys are getting more advanced. I went out to a toy store with my family cause my little bro's what-on-earth-is-that-thing toy is unable to jump. Then I know it was called 'jumping sumo'. Laugh out loud for me on not knowing at the same time everyone else is common with this toy. If you don't know as well, I'll laugh at you too : D After I checked out the toys there there are a few of many I'd like to show here:
This is a Parrot Minidrone Jumping Sumo (which is available in 3 colors). It's a two wheeled rover with a camera. It performs acrobatic movements -jumping, rolling and spinning. You'd need a smart phone or Ipad -more recommended for bigger screening to control it. Plus, having a first person view since you're the controller through your smart phone or Ipad. It can also snap pictures and a limited length of video.
This is a R2-D2 interactive Astromech Droid. You guess it. It can talk to you and make movements according to your demands based on it's given script of course. For example, "R2-D2, reset data," , "R2-D2 can you understand me?" or "R2-D2 follow me". It can follow wherever you go plus, can hold things as well. The boring part is you can't demand him "R2-D2, fetch that Nasi Lemak for me".
This is a drone which is almost similar to the 'jumping sumo' but the difference is you ought to control it to fly instead of the ground with a smart phone or Ipad. Also, can grab pictures and videos on a limited extent. They're available in stores already. Plus, has a GPS.
This is one of 'Parrot's' well-known drones called 'Bebop Drone' Sky Controller. Yeah, too it's same as the Phantom. It's cool cause when you have the real controller you can go as high as 2 kilometers and 300 meters through smart phones. But this one will be available in Malaysia by March 2015 only. Oh God SPM ahaha. Nothing.
Last but not least from Parrot's is this Minidrone Rolling Spider. The not-cool-part is it doesn't have a camera.Yet, it's wonderful for jumping, rolling and spinning as well.
This one is a lego-shipped structure of a space craft from Star Wars. I don't know why but this thing is released way long before already but this year Star Wars seems to be a trend on many brands. Like Vans, their new shoe design was themed on Star Wars. Sorry, can't recall the others but more than 3 outlet brands.
They even had this new application of Ipad on making stop-motion movies on Star Wars Lego's. Available in Wangsa Walk Mall. Don't remember the store either sorry.
Still my favorite part on today's boys entertainments are the application games. Real Steel!

Too be straight I'm not interested much in any of the things I've mentioned above but I kept wondering how smarter can the boys get after getting their toys all high tech? I mean, even the most expensive toys for girls are not vibrant enough as the boys. Like this one.
It's expensive but oh please it's not gonna help girls much than to get a higher imagination and responsibility to take care all the stuff in place. Boys, in the other hand, get to activate their minds on such an early age. Not surprising to have brilliant little genius boys in the future. The toys for boys are getting more advanced compared to girls. I like watching little boys really. When I grow up I'd like to spend my money on buying those who-knows-what's-in-the-future-kinda-robots instead of dolls really. When I was in Perak I kept on clinging on Afiq's Year 5 brother. He's into games and I find it more easy of taking care of him instead of little girls who wants their hair to be combed or anything like pinkish stuff. I adore him playing Real Steel as well as what my little brothers play at home. Maybe cause I had a soft spot on some terms like going for go-carts. But I was so girlish back then. My point? I can conclude I wish to have a son in the future.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
I find it particular weird how now in the end it'll relate to stuff like this.
Maybe I should take breakfast now.
sigh*
