LOVE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I love my Louis Vuitton Zippy wallet in Damier Azur. I bought this wallet more than seven years ago and it still looks and feels great. My wallet is made out of coated canvas on the outside, cowhide leather lining on the inside with strong golden metal pieces. What I love most about this wallet is the affordance; its large capacity with 12 credit cards slots, zip coin pock, and large gusseted compartments to fit your daily essentials. I can put my Galaxy Note 8 in this wallet and still able to zip close to carry as clutch, so I don’t have to carry my big handbag. 

Furthermore, Damier Azur black and white checkered pattern is stylish, clean, and modern. I particularly appreciate brand’s logo not being all over the canvas.  The Zippy wallet was pricey, however, even after 7 years, my wallet is in great condition.  I think it’s worth every penny.

HATE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

An object I hate in my house has to be the HP Pavilion dv6-3013cl Entertainment Notebook PC laptop that I purchased about a year ago from Costco. What I thought was a sweet deal of only $300, now I’m thinking I paid $300 too much. I wanted a simple computer with decent glossy display for online surfing, occasional light work and email exchange.

First, battery life on this laptop is terrible– 2 hours to 2.5 hours maximum. Second, the processing speed is super slow and makes waiting time unpleasant, especially when I’m in a rush. I often had to close my laptop before the content loaded steaming with frustrations! The trackpad on the HP Pavilion is not as responsive. It fails to act when I left click, only after several attempts it will register. The tactile and aural impressions are apparent, nevertheless, I often experience failure in its response.
