3rd week of college :D

Chinese new year is coming! Woow ! Ang pao ! Wooot! Money ! Yesss !~  (”,)

LOLx.. time really flies as yujing said in his blog. So Appreciate the every single minute that is passing now. wink* Thats why I am staying awake to complete my Assignments and post for this week:D although it’s already 1am (^.^)

okay, lets start quick and end it fast :D

Today is our 10% online quiz for ecommerce, and guess what…. it starts on 8.15 and i got up at 7.45 !! omg! im gonna be late ! all thanks to my alarm that doesnt rings ! godness.. i was rushing and speeding to college! luckily i still manage to reach at 8.20 to start the test. (Dont be so happy yet) I was really bad luck this morning. Once i start the test, less than 5 mins I accidentely click on some buttons on the mouse that stopped and terminated the test. So ms.saleena said she cant do anything about it so she ask me to re-sit the test in 1 hour later. Well, what can i say about that. LOL! so i went down and have a smoke to cool myself down.

After 1 hour, i got back up to the lab and re-sit my test. Well, thats where miracle happens and i started to believe that life will not 100% depends on your luck. Eventhough you dont have your luck in the mean time doesnt mean its over. Most importantly is that you do not give up. A strong will power will leads you to sucess. WoW!.. i was really shock with my own results. but ofcourse I am happy with it :D So after that we all went to cybercafe and play some games to pass our time. cause we have a replacement class at 1oclock till 3 oclock. As jing said, time flies, so while playing the game we didnt even notice its already 1oclock.. hahaha! so that causes us late to class. Ms saleena was kinda pissed :P I can see that ! wow ! …hahahah! but nevermind la.. no matter how good and patient the lecturer is, there are stil limits and moodswings ! no one will be happy and facing zero problems always through out the whole 365 days in a year. So understood la ! :D

Time flies ! and the class has ended ! we all were so tired and exhausted today. Maybe its been quite some time that we didnt have afternoon classes. So i straight went home and have a nap :D So thats all i have done for today in college. I love college, College love me :D wink*

Internet Exercises! Tutorial 2

Greetings ~! I have just finished customizing a few pair of sneakers from nike.com and a few pair from timberland.com. It’s truly interesting and fascinating because you got the opportunity to design and create your own sneakers and boots base on your creativity and it follows your own style and fashion. Basically, the different between nike.com and timberland.com are Nike’s sneakers are more attractive towards youngsters, teenagers and kiddies, because Nike’s sneakers are more fascinating and got the style that follows the trend. On the other hand, Timberland’s boots are more attractive towards middle-age adults because it’s more to educated and mature type of shoe. Hahaha! Guess u are wondering why shoes also have mature type and childish type. :p Anyway, it makes a different on what type of shoe your wearing and it might affect your reputation too if your some famous dude. Okay! Stop the crap, I will show you the steps of customizing your boots and sneakers from nike.com and timberland.com.

Here I shall start with nike.com first, (Click on the thumbnail to see larger)

This is the first page of the customization and you may choose to start with an inspiration to customize or start blank.

For this, I have choosen a blank one. So at the first part, you will get to design the colour of the shoe you wan. So as u can see in the seond picture, i have random customize the colour of the shoe.

The following is personalization, but this is onli available if you purchase more than one of this item. So for me now, i choose skip.

At the finalization part, you have got to choose your gender and the size of shoe you want and also how many quantity your planning to buy.

After everything is done, you will get a review of your customization. Just double check and see whether any more thigns you need to change, If no then you may add your product into your shopping cart.

Thats the way of customize and purchase a sneakers from nike.com. The shipping and delivery service from nike is more reliable and faster. Once they receive your order, your design is sheduled and materials are prepare, they will be able to send the product to you within 4 weeks. It’s much faster comparing with timberland.com. Another different from timberland.com is Nike merchandise can me return and refund for any reasons within 30 days from ship date. For more detail informations of return and and refund policy you may enter www.nike.com.

Now it’s time to show you the steps of purchasing at timberland.com,

Like what i have mention earlier on, the shipping and delivery service from timberland are much slower compare with nike. It takes approximately 6 to 7 weeks. Another thing was, there are no return and refund available in timberland. Once you place your order then thats it.

So in conclusion, I guess it just depends on which type of style and look you like to determine which website is better. Overall for the customization part, it’s not like very big differents between both of them. Its just the style and quality maybe, cause I am too poor to buy such shoe. I am just wearing a shoe from Bata that cost RM29.90. So I have got no chance to try it out and feel the different comfort from nike and timberland.
