I’ve managed to secure 2 weeks holiday to accompany my brother over to Australia. He’ll be attending University of Queensland this coming February! I’ve only been to Sydney before and as I recall, everything is expensive in Australia!
I think I’m just going to accompany him for a few days, just to help him settle down and then I’m going on a HOLIDAY! I haven’t had a holiday in a few years (not counting Malaysia and Thailand)… I want to go to New Zealand!!! I think flights to New Zealand are getting cheaper now since it isn’t the peak season and the weather in New Zealand will definitely be better than in Australia!
I’ve heard that the Kiwis are very friendly to tourists and New Zealand is trying to attract foreigners to migrate over. If everything goes well, I should be parasailing and wind surfing there end of this month! I hope my brother will cope with settling down himself, he’s got rejected for a room in the school’s hostel and he’s still finding another accommodation. Too bad for him, I’m going take my well deserved holiday. I intend to travel to Auckland and Christchurch but I’m still surfing on the internet for the cheapest air tickets and accommodation.. if anyone have any good websites or travel agencies to introduce to me, please let me know! Thanks in advance! Happy New Year!!
Happy New Year everyone! Last year has been a wonderful year for me and my family and hope that this year of the rat would be a even better one !
I heard Edison Chen scandal pictures online are in the hundreds right now, although I haven’t bothered to find the pictures. Busy driving my parents around for New Year ma. It’s just so creepy that these people keep releasing the pictures so slowly even during New Year !!
Identities are so important to us nowadays, and speaking of which, there are services that covers you for identity theft. Lifelock guarantees one’s identity for up to one million dollars! Lifelock.com is currently having a promotion also… I’m not very sure how does identity theft prevention works, I think it’s suppose to provide someone with extra security. I’m sure people like Edison Chen needs Lifelock to protect their identity!
I hope in this New Year that all that idiots (that has been doing us a favour) be caught. Yes, even though I am thankful for his contribution to feed the curiosity of mankind, he definitely should be held responsible for potentially damaging the lives of so many brilliant artists that we love. Also, remember the site that I shared on an earlier post? I gave a disclaimer that it might include fictitious pictures of OTHER celebrities… still… it made it to the local news paper that some people might actually think it’s real.
El Pollo Loco’s chicken is simply one of the BEST chicken there is out there. They’re having a video competition at the moment and you can make a video of you grilling chicken and submit it for the competition! (more…)
My friends told me that he’s no longer betting on 4D. Ok lah, he’s a rich kid and if he gets into trouble with money, his parents will bail him out. Now he tells me that he’s into online gambling instead !
This is how the conversation went:
Him: “No la, I don’t bet on toto or 4D anymore.. my friends tell me got good lobang at geylang area”
Me: “eyes pops” -thinks of what “good” things there are in geylang
Him: “my friends told me, you know how some gambling places the odds are rigged? but he intro to me got some online casino places that gives very good rates leh!” (more…)
Many people bet on football, some just for fun and some for money. I’m not a great fan of football, so I’ve only tried betting a few times (but lost). There’s another sport I might consider watching actually… RUGBY!
I used to play rugby back in my secondary school days and I’ve sustained countless injuries from that sport, but I guess it was worth it. I’ve even had my shoulders dislocated before! You can’t catch Europe’s premier international rugby tournament in Singapore (I’m not sure about ESPN though) so I had to find other sources to watch online rugby games ! I’m actually a bit sick of the Edison Chen thing, so watching Rugby would be very entertaining.
RBS 6 nations provides information about the tournaments and even have podcasts section for fans! I’m not sure if you can get the full show from the website, but there is a section where they show highlights from all the matches! Of course my favorite team has got to be ENGLAND! They will definitely win the tournament! Go England Go!!!

With the social boom caused by web 2.0 including social networks and online movies and video, major television networks can no longer confine your mind to their broadcasts for entertainment.
You know how the old Web 1.0 advertisements on websites were either Pay Per Click or Pay Per View ? Now, Net Audio Adsprovides 5 seconds AUDIO ADVERTISEMENTS to be played on your blog and you earn money from 100% of your website’s traffic! I think this Web 2.0 advertisement is very smart and definitely stands out from the other online advertisement opportunities.
Firstly, no one bothers looking at banners and advertisements on sidebars. We have upgraded our IT brain to scan and filter off those kinds of advertisements. Next, it’s not nice for bloggers (like myself) to have to insert ’subtle advertisements’ into our blogs, which in fact does affect the integrity and content of blogs. With NetAudio’s advertisement methods, you can put the advertisement on your blog, and it only takes up 5 seconds of attention from your readers, and the advertisers can still get their message through to the targeted audience. Very clever indeed.

I was thinking of changing my Wordpress theme cause the current one with rainbow… a little weird. Ok, not manly enough.
But is this the same as people saying if you’re manly enough, you can wear pink shirts. Oh no, is my displease with my blog’s template saying that I’m insecure. Nah, I don’t think so.
I’ve never seriously thought about the design of my blog until I browsed through Ashop ecommerce software website. I was looking for a shopping cart that my sister can use to sell things, things she buys from overseas. My sis loves to shop and she would buy the cutest things that are mostly unavailable in Singapore. Even though she currently sells her bags and clothes on her blog, her little business is doing not too bad. I thought if she had a shopping cart software to help make a shopping website, then her sales would definitely increase.
The most important thing is the shopping cart must be pleasing to the eyes, so make sure the shopping cart you’re getting have many templates to chose from and must be customizable to your liking!
This spectacles looks exactly like mine! And it’s sold on Zenni website for only $8 !
Zenni Optical $8 Rx Glasses comes in a variety of colours and design, and yet I still can’t believe its so cheap! Apparently they manufacture frames and sell them directly to customers without retailers, so they can afford to bring the prices down so much. It’s the Best Thing Found: Zenni Optical . They also sell internationally so you don’t have to worry about which country you’re from.
I always have problems finding a pair of frames that I like and yet trendy, it’s good that nowadays you can surf online for the frames you like instead of physically looking at all hundreds of the designs in a shop.
I can’t decide which is nicer….
Maybe I should consider wearing contacts too…
Ok, since I can’t afford a PSP at the moment, I’m still stuck playing games on my computer. Well I guess there are fun games on the internet as well. I love playing pool with my friends during my polytechnic days and guess what you can play billiard online
I don’t think I’m ready for any billiard tournaments yet, but I guess I’ll just have to train harder.
I’m thinking I should try out online pool too, especially when they give you the option to bet with money! Casinos is mostly luck and statistics, but at least playing 3D pool is a skill that you can train! Even if I can never beat Princessa in real life pool, I’m sure it doesn’t mean I will be bad at online pool as well right? (more…)
