craig, my man

today my friend craig pulled through BIG time. as you all know, through the genius technological wave of craig's list you can have anything you could possibly buy at your fingertips. fo reals. im pretty sure that all of you have dabbled in or even made transactions through this list. aniwais, for the past year i have been in dire need of a new phone. i dont wanna bore you w/my pitiful phone history, but here is a pix of the embarrassing-zack morris-big-ass-brick-sorry-ass excuse for a phone, the relic i USED to use.

NOKIA 6010

crappy, i know, i know. but it did the job. luckily, my sis, cheryl was generous to offer a new phone for my bday present, mind you the conditions included that it had to be from craig's list which means used, w/SIM cuz i have t-mobile and the limit was $100. not bad, could've been worse, but something i could work with. it kinda gets tedious trying to weed out the good ads from the stupid ones. but i was able to find something that met all the specifications. i inquired about an ad, she responded quickly and thanx to craig (if craig even exists) and his list, within 48hrs i was in possession of a new/used phone. i feel renewed. like not embarrassed to bust out with my phone in public now. not that i was, but shiiiiit everytime i would take out my phone i would get this comment without fail, "whoa! wow, this was like my very first cell phone back in high school" hahaha. i probly would have said that too. it feels goooood to have a color screen on my phone, a camera, a speaker. as if i was from the stone age. but yes, i enjoy the finer things. here take a looksie:

SAMSUNG t629

Super slim and sophisticated. Slide the Samsung t629 to reveal an impressive array of features. 1.3 mega-pixel camera, high resolution screen, MP3 player, Bluetooth connectivity, and a quad band world phone in a stunning silver finish.

stunnnnnnning huh? i kno its not the newest cream of the crop phone like a blackberry curve or the most coveted iphone but its a VAST improvement, mos def. and im happy. all of you, well people who call me, also get something outta this. i can use the speaker now. so i can talk on the phone while driving. and not be a law breaker. yesssss.

i have a big shot out to my sis, che. since she was balla who financed this transaction. for that, THANK YOU much. luv ya, manang, even tho we still scrap like no other.

back in the day when i was young..............................................im not a kid anymore


(our hair do's are kinda the same, maybe we should recreate this disneyland pose?......hahaha.......i got nothing but love for ya, sis)
