They say never trust a skinny chef. What about a food blogger? I must admit that 5-6 years back when we started this food blog I piled on the pounds reviewing food. I used to relate this up sizing as a job hazard.

Those were my bloated time…

As time goes by I realize I can’t really blame it on the food. I’ve seen a lot of food bloggers who are quite often fitter than the average Malaysian. Cumi&Ciki, Bangsar Babe and KY, just to name a few. So how do so many foodies manage to balance looking great with indulging on good food? It’s all about maintaining a healthy and active lifestyle.

My whole family and my social cycle, is composed of nonsmokers and I am very glad they don’t. However, sometimes I do have to take in those whiffs of tobacco smoke that drifts into my airspace in a restaurant, on the street or at work. It’s annoying!

Handphone, tablet, camera, note pad, pen, paper…these are some of the most essential items which I stuff into my handbag everyday. Kampungboy often asked, “What do girls carry around in their bag? It’s as heavy as a brick!”

Now with Samsung Galaxy Note, we can have the best of everything in one nifty gadget. Is it a phone or a tablet? Or me, it’s a smart combination of the two! It gives you the portability of a smartphone plus the high performance of a tablet. Now you can take notes easily and conveniently just like a regular notepad, organise your schedule and activities with the planner and enjoy the entertainment of countless games.

Weighing only 178g, the Samsung Galaxy Note packs a punch:

• High speed performance with Android 2.3 Gingerbread and 1.4GHz dual-core processor.
• See and do everything in life-size reality with the stunning 5.3” HD Super AMOLED display.
• Take notes easily and quickly with the S Pen stylus.
• Capture life’s greatest moments with the 8 mega-pixel rear camera and 2MP front camera.
• Store all your necessities with the internal memory of 16GB, upgradable to 32GB with microSD.

This means that I don’t need an extra handphone, tablet and camera. I can even throw away my pen, paper and portable gamer. Yay! No more heavy bags! All I need is just a 178g device!
