Ouch!!!

Don't you just hate it when you have a PAPER CUT!!!!!!!

arghhh...

it is small...but it sure is a b*tch!!!!....

i really dont know how such a small cut made by such a harmless thing (i.e. paper lah!) can be so painful!

and i remembered i read from Cleo July 2008 issue that if you have a papercut, rub some lip blm or glue on it...and it somehow eases the pain...

i tried putting on my irish cream flavored (yum!) lip balm and it felt better....INSTANTLY!

and the cut doesnt seem that bad after that rite?

My New Camera

I recently bought another new camera.........

let's look at the photos i took...i dont even have to download all the photos to blog...
i just look at it straight from the viewfinder 'x'

enjoy the story ;)

i know its blur...but its the same as those pirated movies shot from the cinemas... hahaha

sometimes i feel that i have too much time on my hands...hmm

Cisco Certification

Are you an IT professional who has been in the networking field for a while? Are you bored with existing job scope or wish you have the chance to move to greener pastures? Then the Cisco certification could be the answer for you.

Cisco provides a wide range of certification programmes designed for any level of IT professionals. They provide 3 levels of IT certification which are the associate, professinal and expert levels. The Cisco certification allows you to pursue your area of interests ranging from 6 areas such as routing and switching,network security and service provider. On top of that, you could also branch out to specialized areas such as security, IP telephony and wireless.

Getting a Cisco certification will surely benefit your career as seen from the success stories of Cisco certification holders. Some of them are even working for Dreamworks, LapCorp Inc, Budweiser now. Among the many benefits which you will gain by following the highly recognized Cisco certifications are higher salaries, gaining a competitive advantage, opening up new career paths and of course gaining a professional recognition.

I browsed through some of the success stories and the way a Cisco certification has helped them in their career and self esteem is really amazing. Most of them testified that they have managed to gain useful knowledge in their networking career and the most amazing testimonial being from a guy who used to work for a supermarket for 15 years. He always wanted to work with computers and after 15 years he decided to take up the Cisco certication and guess where he is now? A senior network engineer for Dreamworks Animation. Amazing huh?

How to get your PageRank back

A while back when i started to write PayPerPosts paid posts, i didn't realise that Google was hunting down all those bloggers who write posts for PayPerPosts and slap them with a Page Rank ZERO! It was only my 3rd post that i realized Google had given me the big ZERO.

If you are new to PageRank go here and check the PageRank for your blog. To me, i feel that PageRank is only important when you are writing paid posts. So if you want to earn some money from your blog, it is best you only write paid posts with "nofollow" links. The unfortunate thing is, PayPerPost's paid links do not come with "no follow", hence the penalty.

So i started to search around the net to see whether there's any way for me to get back my PR and i found a few helpful sites. This one, this one and this one. Basically, you have to remove all those contents in your blog which you think might be the cause of the penalty (for me, it is removign all those paid links with NO "nofollow") and request for a reconsideration here at Google Webmaster Tools.

I just submitted my request and i sure hope they give me back my PR! Good luck!

p/s this is certainly not a paid post altho i have to admit i sound more serious in this post than i ever were writing a non paid post :D

Wargames 25th Anniversary

Calling all 70s and 80s babies...i am sure most of you remember Back to the Future I,II and III. Why, just few months ago i managed to catch it on the tv after so many years. Sitting down and watching the movie was pretty nostalgic for me. During that time, the concept of going back to the future is just so new and so interesting it managed to get most of us hooked!

If you are one of those 80s sci-fi movie fans, here's a piece of news for you. in conjunction with the WarGames 25th anniversary, it will be returning to select theaters nationwide on July 24th, Thursday. You will get to view some never-before-seen interviews with cast and crew and you can even get a sneak peak at the making its sequel, WarGames:The Dead Code.

Java Juices

Phewwww!!!


I certainly have been typing my arms off writing all those paid posts...pls bear with me yeah....cos i dont know why they gave me all the opportunities at the same time :(


Since i had to alternate paid posts and non paid posts...all i had to blog about was FOOD! lol
Scroll down and show some love to my other posts if you have time...*blink blink*

and speaking of FOOD...i have some more!! LOL

hehe these were taken quite some time ago at Java Juices...

Cheesy fish or was it butter fish...i think i forgot to ask Dr Chen how does it taste like...hmmm..

and i managed to cam whore with her super mini Asus EEE! yay! met the EEE at last!

our Fillo Chicken...

somehow we like to order fillo chicken whenever we are at Java Juice...its breaded chicken with CHEEEESEEEEEEE filling...

look at them OOOOZZINGG out :P

so now i have to rest...don let me write another post!!

Cheesy Pick up Lines

What's the cheesiest and corniest pick up lines you ever heard? Well, for me there's quite a few like "I've lost my phone number, can i have yours?" or "I wonder what our children will look like."...Groan!!

If you have used any of the pick up lines labelled CORNY...i think its time you change your pick up line in order for you to achive your Victory Hair. Of course, having the Extreme Style by VO5 will surely help you in achieving your victory hair. It acts as a leave on conditioner for shinier,softer and healthier hair!

Alternatively, you could practise on achieving your Victory Hair by playing the Ultimate Flirting Championship :

It's sort of like a flirting game where you get to create your own character and then you wait for 2 other players to come in and play the game with you. When i played the game, i was the judge and random questions about relationships and stuffs will be presented to you and you can choose your preferred question. Then the other 2 players will have to answer them and you can choose the answer you like best!

When you have found your perfect match, Victory Hair will be achieved. SImple! Try it out!

Brown Rice Rolls

Have recently fallen in love with these brown rice rolls with a variety of flavors to choose from...

i have tried the seaweed flavored (above) and the milk...

they are these small little puffy err..puffs...with some filling inside...

its sort of addictive like the Bin bin japanese crackers...

why, just this afternoon i was craving for it and was thinking of getting a packet from Ta Kiong @ The Spring...but each roll contains 54kcal!!!..arghhH!!

Romantic Pick up Lines

Am i the only one or do most of you find the pick up lines used in some Hollywood movies is just so romantic? To quote a few...here's one from Message in a Bottle "Every step I took since the moment I could walk was a step toward finding you" or what about this one from Anastasia "Whatever you choose, we will always have each other"

Have any of you ever tried these lines in real life? Well, if you need some practise why not try out Extreme Style by VO5's Ultimate Flirting Championship? I guess you could test out your favourite pick up lines from movies here. No harm done.

I have tried out the game and i find it really interesting. First, you create your own character and then you wait for 2 other players to come in and play the game with you. When i played the game, i was the judge and random questions about relationships and stuffs will be presented to you and you can choose your preferred question. Then the other 2 players will have to answer them and you can choose the answer you like best!

I find the game pretty entertaining and i guess you could practise your pick up lines here before trying it out for real! Good luck!

My Fav Pizza

Nowaday, it is quite hard to find GOOD italian food rather ...GOOD pizzas in Kuching...


Pizza Hut really sucks now...instead of pizza i think they serve more like bread with toppings =_=


HATE HATE HATE!!!


So for real authentic Italian food, i guess the only place is now Bella Italia at RH Plaza...

The pasta is alright...above average...but we really love the pizzas there...the thin crispy crust...the generous toppings!...yum!


besides, i really love anchovies on pizzas...wahahaha and thats the only place to find pizzas with anchovies in Kuching :(

Victory Hair

I personally feel that having healthy hair can make someone appear really sexy. Certainly no one would like to be with someone who has split ends, frizzy hair and dry hair all at once! That can certainly be quite a big turn off. But with Extreme Style by VO5, maintaining great looking hair is so easy! It can act as a natural conditioner and helps to make your hair softer and more manageable! That sure will help you achieve your Victory Hair easily.

If you are not too sure what is a Victory Hair, why not try out the Ultimate Flirting Championship :

I have tried this game and it is really fun! First you create an avatar for your character in the game and you can play with other players who join the game. Then you get to ask questions related to flirting/dating/relationships or pick up lines and the other 2 players answer them and you choose the answer you like best! By the end of the game, you will understand what i mean by victory hair. Cos it is the look you achieve when cupids strike if you get what i mean. If you don't ... try the game now

Cockles/Kerang Season 2

Inspired by Dr Chen's very hiao cockles post ... i have decided to do a sequel to that post...ROF...

May i present to you...the Kuching Cockles...

somehow i always felt like 'kacau-ing' the cockles when they half open enticingly like that

u kno whats the best way to do that???
heheheeh i poke a knife into the shell thru the opening and once they sensed that something is touching them...they will immediately clam up (pun intended)

so if the knife's in there they wont be able to full close up...WAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!...

oh..am i the only one who find that funny?ahem...ok anyway...enjoy the COCKLES!

Happy Me

I recently bought this...

The Clinique Happy Heart perfume...

The thing is...i bought it at RM35! wahahahaha....yes the full size 100ml bottle!

A Girl's Worst Enemy

I have been thinking hard about getting this little monstrous thing for a while now...until last night when i finally made the decision to just go ahead and buy it!

No looking back now...the little monster is sitting right under my bed and i hope we would be best of friends soon...

Take a look at my new found friend...

hehehe...its a weighing machine! A girl's worst nightmare...

well not always a nightmare if it shows me some good results but after a heavy meal...it is most certainly not my FRIEND!!!

i was thinking hard about getting one because i know i won't be able to resist weighing myself everytime i have a meal...heck! i've weigh myself 3 times in the past 1 hour 'x'

the agony!

p/s anyone noticed its PINK??? ^_^

Glenn Beck

Have you heard of Glenn Beck? He used to be a radio DJ and now he is set to be the next phenomenon of talk radio! Visit his website and you might understand why is he so popular. I see him as someone who is witty, knowledgeable and humorous! Come on, it needs lots of humor to be able to dedicate a section on his website for his hate mails. Read it up, its hilarious!

He talks about a variety of topics like politics, current events, family and relationships and even on religion. I think might hate him for his honesty but that's what i like about him. Glenn Beck is currently performing a summer political comedy tour and will be having a one night comedy show in Dallas which will be broadcasted live to selected movie theaters on July 17th!

Taman Bukan Sahabat

One day after work, we decided to take a quick stroll around the neighbourhood to burn off some unwanted fat and we saw this beautiful double rainbows...

so walking senselessly around the neighbourhood we ended up at the nearby shop to buy ice cream...

so much for exercising! =_=

and while walking back, we had to walk pass this small little neighbourhood park...

now, everyone knows about the famous Friendship Park (Taman Sahabat) that was jointly set up by the China & Malaysian government rite?

but look at what we have in our neighbourhood...

TAMAN BUKAN SAHABAT

hahaha...we had a good laugh over that...you just have to give credits to them for their sense of humor :D

Da Look!

Have you ever given "The Look" or have received it??
The look as in the look to catch someone's interest or in other words...your own special flirty look...hahaha!!

hey! who's that!

LOL! sorry i m not so good in giving "the look" but that's the best i could come up with.

Of course, apart from the look there are other ways to grab the attention of the opposite sex. It could be non verbal as in flirtatiously fluttering your eyelashes, giving your best smile or some might feel giving the other person a gentle pat on the shoulder as a way to flirt.

If you think that you are a flirt expert....why not try the Extreme Style by VO5 Ultimate Flirting Championship

You could try it out here! I have tried it out and it is really an interesting flirting game. First you create an avatar for your character in the game and you can play with other players who join the game. Then you get to ask questions related to flirting/dating/relationships and the other 2 players answer them and you choose the answer you like best!

I say this is good wholesome flirting that won't get you into trouble! I highly recommend it :)

Bento Hijau

Hehehe ...another Green Bento day in the office

it is really sort of 'pampering' to be having lunch delivered right to your doorstep but this could be our last time ordering green bento since they have increased their price :(

at RM8 per sandwich...i think it would be more viable to be bringing in lunch from home or just go out for RM2.80 kolo mee...hmm...

Roast Beef Sandwich (RM8.50)

comes with potato chips (i love those paper thin crispy potato chips!) and for the month of June/July, every sandwich order comes with a free side order!

hence, the green salad

Fish fillet sandwich (RM7.50)

for sandwiches you could choose panini/french/wholemeal or normal bread...

this is my roast chicken whole meal sandwich (RM8)

i m loving it!

thick piece of roast chicken in each half of the sandwich

i really really love it! =)

Not-so-junk-food at The Junk

Went to The Junk for dinner on Saturday...

Living up to its name...The Junk is decorated with all sorts of err...Junk !

all sorts of knick knacks...

In fact, when Anthony Bourdain the famous food critic was in Kuching he was here......in.this.very.restaurant!

As appetizer...we had calamari mango salad...

a salad of big generous chunks of mango, big generous portions of calamari rings and of cos some good green leafy veggies that are bound to make your productivity increase in the toilet the nxt day :D

it was too big a plate as an appetizer for two that i was actually quite full by the time we finished HALF of it....

and when my Salmon Steak (RM32) came and i saw the size of it...

oh noooooooo...

i dont know why they always like to use such big plates...in fact, the plate is as big as those plate where those chinese restaurants put their cold cut dish

the salmon came in a very big chunk...topped with mushrooms and teriyaki sauce and comes with a generous helping of green salad (not salad again!!)

he had the Fisherman's Basket (RM38)

it did not come in a basket...but i think its bcos they cant find a big enough basket to fit in all that. :D

it is so big...i had to take 2 pics just to show u everything on the plate

what do i have to say about this ...too much fries,too much calamari and too much soft shell crab and some prawns...i think its enough for 3 person lah!!!

and isn't it ironic? FISHERMAN's basket with only calamari rings,soft shell crabs and..errr..that's it! where's the FISH as in FISHerman's basket?

by the end of the dinner...we were sooooooo full even tho we did not completely finish any of the dishes...hmm....

and guess how much we paid for this dinner???

heh heh...

would you believe..............RM4.50???

Yes we really DID pay only RM4.50 for it all....because we had a RM100 coupon...oh joy oh happy bliss...that is the cheapest dinner we ever had :)

p/s if u r too lazy to do some math ...the dinner totalled to RM104.50 lah!

Bloody Toe

Yesterday i was at Kenyalang browsing around for shoes while someone was away doing his usual stuff (looking at PC games...what else?)

So i saw a pile of shoes on offer at only RM10 per pair...and me being the curious shopper tried on a pair...

when i put my feet into the left side of the shoe...i felt a sharp pain so i quickly took off the shoe and looked inside it...

there was a small little staple like thing pointing out from the sole of the shoe...i looked at my feet and it seemed ok so i continued to browse around and after a minute or two i looked down and was horrified to see a bloody toe :(

i limped to him and showed him my bloody toe :(

and he asked me to show him the pair of shoe, i pointed it to him and he roughly took it and looked inside and saw the staple thingy... the sales assistant was looking at us all these while

and he put the pair of shoe messily down and brought me home to wash my bloody feet...

and it was only when we were in the car that i asked him how come he did not tell the sales assistant off when he roughly took up the shoe and put it down again...bummer...

we regretted not doing so!! grrr...what kind of shop lets their customer try on shoes like that no matter how cheap it is!!!

my toe.........!!! my poor little toe!!!... sobs

This is a community service message brought to you by me to LOOK INSIDE THE SHOE BEFORE YOU PUT IT ON! :p

p/s on the way back i kept on worrying whether a HIV positive freak purposely prick himself with the staple thingy and put it inside the shoe to infect unsuspecting victims like me....i hope not :(
