Samsung Galaxy Ace 2

So I had my first hands on experiences on the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 yesterday I found the phone for sale at Divine cell care (Pvt) Ltd, Majestic City, 3rd Floor,a tad bit slower than expected, there is no model without the silver border and the TouchWiz 4 UI isn't a big deal as expected . Hope the promised Jelly Bean Update will counter all the cons. but its a descant for a mid range phone at that price. 38,500 Sri Lankan rupees is the lowest I have come across for the Ace 2. 

Experiences wise; for someone who has been stuck with the TouchWiz 3 for a while it might need getting used to (but not that complicated). Felt a little heavy in my hand, not sure if that's good or bad. 

The packaging came in a very compact box that is just a little bigger than the phone it self (going green I suppose, who cares not like you are going to use the box).. Let me get to what was inside this box tho, data cable which felt quite solid and firm, a separate charger with a long enough extension, a manual and warranty card along with a ear phones, didn't really like the look of the ear phones, since I personally prefer the ear buds also the fact that they are white doesn't excite me ether ( Prone to discolor and get dirty), but I don't know. I don't want to judge it without having used it first.  

Right now the phone is only available Black (with the silver outline) in Sri Lanka, So for all the white phone lovers I suggest you wait till the end of the year or so, with the Jelly Bean upgrade (and lets face the it the price will eventually drop) the wait will be worth the while. 

Hope this helps anyone in Sr Lanka looking for information about the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 to at least imagine what its like. but I suggest you get a hands on experience, its not bad at all. 

Also note that most comparisons done in the article are with the Galaxy Y (I assume its a common enough phone in Sri Laka these days) all in all its a pretty good upgrade if you're a Galaxy Y user with a low budget for a new phone.

His Name by He is We

Why am I so afraid of the night?
My silhouette it taunts me
My lack of faith in this beautiful life
My knowing of it haunts me
I'm haunted and know I should be afraid

Lay awake at night
Cry you know its not alright to feel like you’re falling into nothing
You can learn to fly
Just call
His name
Just call His name

Suddenly I wonder why I feel so alone
I know there’s something out there
Thought I’d suck it up and do it all on my own
Wish I'd known He does care
I'm haunted
And I know I should be afraid

Lay awake at night
Cry you know it’s not alright to feel like you’re falling into nothing
You can learn to fly
Just call
His name
Just call His name

Where do we go?
Call out His name
Lift up our hands
Completely ashamed
Give it all up
Dropping our pride
Rip us apart
Change us on the inside
Now change us now (we cry out to you we fall on our knees)

Lay awake at night
Cry you know it’s not alright to feel like you’re falling into nothing
You can learn to fly
Just call
His name
Just call His name

Kalumaali

One of the best productions I have seen in a long time. It’s simplicity and reality just blew my mind away. The fact that it had us talking about its meaning and dept after the performance goes to show how relevant and gripping the story was. 

Amazing acting and stage handling, the stage crew being a part of the actual production is an novel idea that worked so well and smoothly also have to mention the shadow act that was so wonderfully done.

Special mention and hats off to Malshani Delgahapityia., I have always bugged you about you being skinny but I see you put that to good use!

 Also Shenali Rajkumar I have to say I was utterly surprised and impressed about how fast and agile you where especially with your "baby bag" occupied ;) and the whole cast altogether blended in so well and your professionalism was very present.

Ruwanthie de Chickera you are a genius in what you do. Thank you for being so bold and taking it to a whole new level, and of course for entertaining us and at the same time speaking deeply into many hearts through this production.

I remember telling Mal to beak a few legs before the opening night, you guys certainly managed to go through with that. Hats off!

Empty Jar

Every felt like an empty jar longing to be filled? most if the time we try to fill that with things like feathers, which are too light or mercury which on the other hand is too heavy.Sometimes flowers, thinking its beauty and fragrance will fill us up! but the truth is its the flowers that smell and look nice, no one is going to look at the jar! So then we realize this truth or other times the flowers die out so we get rid of them (if you're really stupid you try and live with it!) then you  try to empty your self further by various means till you hit the bottom and realize you can't get any emptier than you already are. by this time you are drained and have given up. 

But did you ever stop and ask the question "What was I created to contain?"
