i'm currently considering both the 226bw and 225bw - they are just that little different in the terms of "refresh". however the key difference would be the contrast ratio. judging from hardwarezone's priceguide, it does seem that the 226bw would be the no-brainer; given that i'm a samsung user for quite a while now. with all the raw amount of data i'm coming across every day, i'll get myself a 22 incher next month - after i return from prague.

braces day one: upper jaw only, only affixed for a limited teeth count.

sensation: can feel a mild contractive force generally across the upper jaw. feels like i've got a solid wire-type of chewing gum in between the teeth and the gum/lips.

the past couple of weeks have been a challenging time - i am constantly challenged to challenge myself to bring myself to a next income level.

and i know i'll get there.

just got my trip ticketing issues done up just yesterday afternoon, and so happens that the group ceo of the travel company was there right beside me while i was getting things done... and his chinese surname is the same as mine! he sure doesn't look like the 70 years of age he said he was of; but rather a rather spritely 55 year old.

seems like i can get a better grip of myself... at a much better level than i could in the past. things are indeed looking bright.
