Narnia-fied!
narnia Originally uploaded by annalyn. Maybe this poor blogger doesn't watch movies every so often or maybe because it was simply good.

While am waiting for Big Sister to buy me a new cellphone, I have been using a Samsung sliding phone and I must say it's fun to use and is quite a revelation. You see, it has been rather convenient for me to ignore this brand but now that I've tried it, I may just have a Samsung for my next phone. What I like: The form factor is unbeatable.
