World of Leion

I had wanted to get a watch.  However, this is more a want, as I could have read the time off my mobile phone. As such, I keep my mobile phone close to me so I can keep track of time without the need to use a watch.

I managed to keep my “want” under check till recently I viewed some online videos on radiation from mobile phones. The videos basically showed a few  kernels of corn surrounded by ringing mobile phones. The corns pop to show that the mobile phones produce enough radiation to heat up the corn and make them explode.

This set me thinking – I keep my mobile phone with me most of the time in my pants pocket. Am I absorbing much of this radiation?

The watch “want” status escalated to the “need” status. I began to look around for watches that I like. Forums were a good help, so is my friend Jits. This review led me to choose the Orange Monster.

Basically, I love orange and the bright illume. The more I read about it, the more I fell in love with it. Alas this is not cheap from the watch shops near my place. Internet is a powerful research tool. I managed to find this shop that sells almost half the price I would have paid at the shops nearby. Well, today is the day I make the kill.

The watch is a tad heavy but I believe my arms will get used to it soon. Now, I can keep my mobile phone in my bag to keep the radiation source away.
