I Steal from the Rich and Give to the Poor

You gotta admit, the dudes in KFC Holdings Sdn Bhd Malaysia are going crazy~~~

I mean, they came up with their own breakfast meals to get a piece of that pie that has long been dominated by McDonalds. To counter McD's chicken porridge, guess what they have to offer?


They have nasi lemak! WTF! Lol.

Okay, let's not talk about that for a moment. I am a big fan of chili sauce. I mean, most assorted fried or deep fried food I eat, I would definitely look for chili sauce. And somehow, I am really fancy of the Thai Chili Sauce from Life. I have 3 bottles at home but all of them have dried up. (Bottoms are very difficult to get out)


I don't usually buy my own Chili Sauce. So I grabbed my phone and texted the following message to Zach.

"Let's go KFC for dinner tonight. Running low on Chili Sauce"

So I showered, grabbed my wallet and phone and began my journey of thousand miles. As usual, camwhored when I'm walking. One picture turned out quite splendid, lucky me.


As the day has yet to turn dark, the view is somewhat pleasant so I took another shot of the parking lot on my way to the nearest KFC from where I stay.


After less than 5 minutes of walking, I'm there already. KFC Jalan Genting Klang.


The best thing of all, it's open 24 hours! Before this, I only knew 1 KFC outlet in KL that's operates 24 hours which is the one at Chow Kit.

Upon entering something caught my eye.


My precious~~~
No, seriously. I mean this.


They have Chicken Rice!!! Lol!! If I'm any crazier, I'd have gone ARGHH~~~~ like Zoidberg from Futurama.


Not being able to try their Nasi Lemak due to most of the time I don't really take breakfast, I told myself, I gotta order this Chicken Rice of KFC and try it out. So I joined the queue line waiting anxiously to order the Chicken Rice.


As usual, illustration always look better than the real thing. Here's how the real deal looks like.


KNN. Where the heck is my bowl? I demand a bowl! I want the tiny flag as well. And how come my cucumber not curvy cut like the illustration? CCB. Lol.

Okay, judgment time.

KFC Chicken - you know the verdict. But at times the chicken that they sell appears to be too fat. You will know once you take off the skin and you see a bunch of soft white coat covering the real meat. Those are bad quality chicken. They ought to do some quality control on their chicks.

Rice - Surprisingly, it does taste a lot like Chicken Rice's Rice. It's not bad at all.

Cucumber - Ooi! I demand curvy cut cucumber like the illustration! Mine was yellowish and seemed like it was put into fridge for days.

Soup - It tasted quite good. But if you do take your time to savor it, you'll realize that the taste come from excessive MSG.

Overall, it's actually a dish that's passable seeing that it's from a fast food restaurant. In fact, it's quite filling. Not bad at all from KFC in my humble opinion.

And magically, after my trip to KFC, my Thai Chili Sauce Bottles got full again.


Disclaimer: You have no proof that I steal!!! I didn't steal!! Those pictures are coincidentally put into that sequence and thus might have led you to think that I stole from KFC. I'm an honorable person and I don't steal. Stealing is not what I do best but lying is.

Wild Wild West~

How do you get to the West? Simple, just follow the direction of where the Sun sets. However, there are a lot of places in the West..

Well, it's not a smooth sailing all the way for the Journey to the West. I mean for the illustrator.

Rebound From Financial Crisis

Financial crises no longer applies to businessmen these days as the world is seeing a higher number of young adults being declared bankrupt each year. This is due to various reasons, with most people blaming the young adults themselves for being unable to control their spending and eventually, you're deemed as bad credit.

Once you get into bad credit stage, life is bad. You can almost say bye bye to any loans, credit cards or what-so-ever financial aid. It's pretty bad as life without a credit card today is pretty difficult.

But guess what? You can now apply for bad credit credit cards. No kidding. There are even bad credit loans for you to apply too. With these aids around, hopefully many young adults can have the necessary assistance to rebound from their financial crises.

Onward to the West

Sometimes, when we are not sure of which direction to go, asking for directions could be the right to do. Or not...

We often heard people say "Don't Judge a Book by Its Cover". It applies here in today's comic strip.

Communication Made Easier

Let's face the facts, that communication has come a long way since the dawn of mankind. Back in those days, communication requires both parties to be present in order for the message to be delivered.

Then some dudes played with smokes and taught others how to play as well and name each kind of different smoke shapes and thus, it was used to pass messages in a short distance. Then dudes from various civilization starting carving things on stones, woods and ever papers which eventually evolved into alphabets and different writings we have today.

But no doubt, the most important communication method that is available for most people in the world today would be the telephone. Thank you Alexander Graham Bell. Without you, people would still be sending mails and flying pigeons.

However, most countries have more than 1 telecommunication company. In this case, users choose the company that offers the best rate or plan according to their usage. Now it's convenient if you're just looking at domestic market. But what if we're to think outside the box? Will it be the same? Technically yes, but information wise.. let's just say that the local telco companies aren't going to tell you extra information about their competitors.

Looking for the right prepaid phone cards could be a pain in the ass, but luckily, TheRichCom has a neat layout design to help you ease your problem. Searching for the best card for your money value is no longer a problem. Simply select your country and you get a list of prepaid cards available. You would not believe how low the rates the foreign companies are offering for you to call various countries.

Go check them out yourself. I'm not bluffing.

Biskut Laut

The title was a direct translation from 'Sea Biscuit', a well known horse's name.

This 2 strips of Journey to the West comic is all about horses. As we do know, the horse that Tang SanZang rides is no ordinary horse. But so far, there ain't anything extraordinary, right? That's because the real horse ain't here yet. So what's gonna happen to this good ol' horse that he's currently riding?

Demand and supply. When there's only 1 demand and lots of supply, that means the onl the best one gets it, right? You jump in to the shoe anytime you can to prove your worth.


More traveling to the West.

P.S. I know you guys are anxious for the appearance of the pig, but he's going to come only after 2 more updates.

Brokering Advantages

Let's face the facts, people don't do charity.

The main reason people do it, is to get something in return. Be it to get your face published on newspaper, for political motives or you just want to feeling of satisfaction that someone else is living a better life due to your deed. Yes, even that feeling counts as a return, in an emotional value.


600 pounds also want big ass cheque!
You can see from a mile that these people are not really sincere in donations
Life is all about getting something in return for yourself. You buy gifts for your parents, you're merely showing how much you care for them so that in return they give you more allowance (if you're still young) or you get the feeling of righteousness for honoring your parents as you're fulfilling your responsibility as their child.

You buy gifts and sweet talk to your girlfriend/boyfriend, you would say you're showing how much you love her/him, but in fact you're merely securing your asset for the future (be it for financial security, passing your bloodline or companionship in the old days).

There is no action that any individual do in this world that could not be derived to form a motive or wanting something out of the action. All these motives, be it big or small, evil, wicked or good, are all called desires.

Check out the words in italic
When one party thinks that he's getting a better return that what he is throwing out of his action, he would gladly play along his action. For example, you know you hate your aunt pinching your face every time she comes around Christmas, but you still let her do that, cause she always gives you the best present ever.

Call me realistic or what, but this is how I view the world. But fortunately, I play the game well (not when it comes to emotions and feelings, sometimes I'm not good at it). I don't usually try to make the other party thinks that the deal is worth it, but I sure know when someone is trying to take advantage of me.

When you see a friend in a tight spot, it's human nature that you'd help him out. Of course, you do not expect any returns immediately from your action, but you'd regard him as your friend and if you have trouble in the future, similarly you'd seek his help or favor. That's the rule of the game.


You help your friends up, you'd hope that your friends could give you a lift up too in the future, right?
Man, you do not know what I do for my friends sometimes. Despite nearing my exams, I accompanied him during his lowest moments in life due to emotional problems, manipulated scenarios for him and even stayed wide awake in front of the PC during the wee hours just to help him out. He even asked more favors for me to help solve his problems. Being a human, I always regard helping people out for now would spawn more favors from the future when I need it, so I agree to it.

Alas, something came up, and I do need his help. It's not even a big favor nor something too troublesome compared to what he told me that he has done for his other friends. He refused my request politely and called it not fair. Fair enough, it's subjective for each person to view a trade. I don't blame him. Once I got his answer, I merely told him, that it's okay, I don't push for a yes when I get a no.

Well, lucky me, I have yet to give out more favors to him. In fact, there was a planned one coming in the future that has yet to be done. As I've said, I don't trade when the deal is bad. Since I am in a busy position of studying for my exams, I can hardly think of anymore reasons to spend time outside. I think I know when to call off a deal when it's no longer worth it.

Okay, what can you learn from my whinny session today? Stay clear ahead when you do something, or someone requires your help. See beyond their motives and judge whether your actions are accountable for yourself or not. If yes, satisfaction or feeling of helping is all that matters and you don't care if he/she spits at your face the next time you're in a shit hole, you're no doubt a greater soul than I am.


Spit. That's the best I have. Lol
P.S. Wednesday's off. You go ahead with your plans. I'm staying home unless you burn it.

Hot And Thirsty

Well, just after I did the review on how vast and barren the deserts are in the Forbidden Kingdom, apparently our Wukong here experience the heat too. What would you do in his shoes?

The Forbidden Kingdom

This post is long due as I've been busy studying lately.

People have long waited for a chance to see both Jackie Chan and Jet Li in the same movie. Let's face the facts, they're both top notch Chinese Kung Fu Masters. People often have the thought of comparing who's better than the other thus, longing for a movie where both of them is in it, fighting each other. On the other hand, some people might say that having both Jackie Chan and Jet Li acting together in the same movie would be eating a hard boiled egg with both salt and soy sauce.

So people got what they wanted for in the movie : The Forbidden Kingdom, or the Chinese title - King of Kungfu


One thing that all of us must know before we have any high expectations (like I did) on the movie, this movie is made to cater for the Western audience. Remember movies like Ninja Kids and stuff like that? Yea, it's something similar. Except that they have a teenager in this one rather than kids. Michael Angarano took up the role of that teenager, named Jason Tripitikas (what a name). He's a white kid who has a vital role to play in the movie, returning the legendary Golden Staff to the Monkey King. I personally dislike his character but he's essential to captivate the Western audience.



But let's face the facts, people don't pay money to watch that kid. People pay money to watch him!


Jackie Chan and Jet Li are the obvious main attractions to anyone who feels like watching this movie. Both of them casted 2 roles in the movie which you should find out on your own by watching it. The Drunken Immmortal Lu Yan, is one of Jackie Chan's character and he's really good in it.


Jet Li on the other hand, takes on the role of a soldier monk who vows to help the White kid to return the staff to the Monkey King. Though not as good in acting (English ain't as good as Jackie), but his Kung Fu is suffice to deliver his value.

Call me biased cause I'm Chinese or what so ever, but I think Michael Angarano's performance in the movie didn't come close to the Chinese actors at all. I mean, of course, Jet Li and Jackie Chan is another level, but look at the Chinese babes I'm showing you next.


Liu Yifei takes on the role of Golden Sparrow, an orphan whose only care in the world is to seek revenge on the Jade Warlord for killing off her parents. Skilled in martial arts, her main weapon is the dart. I'll talk more about the Jade Warlord later.

Let's look at another beautiful babe, shall we?


Li Bing Bing takes on the role of The White Hair Demoness a.k.a. The Bride with White Hair. So beautiful, yet so dominating! Lol. Seriously I love her character. She's even better than Liu Yifei if you ask me. Her command of English is superb and she's just perfect for the role.


Okay, you'd only see her in the movie with white hair. The black hair part was from deleted scenes. But no matter, she's still so captivating and beautiful. If I ain't gay, I'd definitely fantasize about her when I have certain urges to fulfill on my own. Lol. I think there are a lot of people who would want to be whipped by her after this movie.


At some part of the show, I do think that it's quite gay. Let's talk about the character Jade Warlord, shall we? He's the head of the Heavenly Army which intrudes on the lives of the people on Earth. When Emperor Jade went for meditation in seclusion, he took over the ruling and.. typical bad guy role, tyrant, iron fist rule and etc. He was the one who tricked Sun Wukong to lay down his Golden Staff when he realized he can't beat him in combat. The moment Sun Wukong laid down his staff, he casted a magic to turn him into stone.

That's not so gay yet. The gay part is this. See for yourself.


I have no idea who suggested putting on eyeliners for him, but it does not look good! Lol.

The best part of the movie is no doubt the scene when Jackie Chan fights Jet Li when they weren't sure whose side were each other on. Of course, being the joker I am, I've done something to spoil those action pictures for you, gaily!

In case you don't know what they were fighting for, it's for the staff. Jet Li as the monk, took it as he was looking for the real seeker from the prophecy to return it to the Monkey King.


Well, with something long and thick as that, you can easily swing it around and some dude/babe who's interested might get happy. Lol.


Even their hand to hand combat is superb. You get to see Praying Mantis stance, Tiger Stance, Drunken Fist and Dating Fist. Lol.


The story is a little similar to Journey to the West, especially traveling through unknown lands to reach their destination. I was personally captivated by their desert scene. Vast and barren.


Okay, let me draw a conclusion here. It's a movie catering for the Western audience. I need to stress on that. White kid learning Kungfu. Get it?


But the fighting part from Jackie Chan and Jet Li is seriously worth the deal. Not to mention Jackie Chan's humor and the presence of 2 beautiful Chinese chicks. Go watch it if you haven't. It's worth your money. But I stress again, it's a Western flick. Don't put too much expectation on it.

As usual, since it's a Press Screening from Nuffnang, what do bloggers do when they go for such event? They camwhore!


And being Nuffnang employees, Michelle and I took one step further in the action of camwhoring.


Nuffnang, where everyone has bigger balls.

Meme

This meme is long due from Michelle.

1. Do you eat a lot of fast food?
I used to crave Pizza Hut like mad when I was a fatso. It's like every week I'd order a pizza and I would finish it all by myself. My God, what glutton I was!

2. Besides your mouth, where is your favorite spot to get kissed?
My cheeks please! Being the mischievous me, getting pecked on the cheeks makes me real glad and cheeky too!

The Forbidden Kingdom. Movie reviews coming next post.

Fuck you candy. I don't want to turn back to a 105kg behemoth!

Yup, that was me
11. Does it make you happy to get letters in the mail?

My boyfriend, Zach.

36. Do you wish you had smaller feet?
Small feet? No way! Guys having smaller feet is like having small penises. That suck ass!

I lost count. Don't ask.

You don't wish to read my writing. Trust me. It's as good as doctor's.

41. Would you rather have a boyfriend/girlfriend, or friends with benefits?
You mean personal friend as quoted by Chua Soi Lek? Lol. I want both!

44. Are you different now than you were six months ago?
Yes, I'm so productive now and I have increased my self-worth much better as working a job that you enjoy is so freaking awesome!

45. What was the last beverage you spilled on yourself?
Beverage ah? You mean anything that people put into their mouth? Erm... Bukkake! Lol!!!


Okay, now let's get to the important part of Meme. The real reason why people invented Meme, is not for people to know what you do and what you like, but rather to increase the links of your blog. You don't simply tag people and don't link them. How the fuck am I going to know if you've tagged me unless I read your blog? Trust me, not everyone reads all their links in their blogs, but everyone checks out who links them from Technorati.

So I'm tagging
1. Yin Yin
2. Nick
3. Huay Xin
4. Xin Hui
5. Nadia

Remember to link me or else! Yes, that's it. Or else! Lol.

Today is Camwhore Day

I know a guy should not do this. But I can't help it. I am self obsessed.

How do you tell that you're self obsessed like me?

For starters, you take a picture of yourself at the most random places. The picture above was taken when I was lying down on the floor in my house. WTF?

And every time you freaking cut your hair or drop by at your hairstylist's place, you snap another.


Okay, I go to Sungai Wang, the land of Lala, Ah Beng and Ah Lian to cut my hair. Don't you dare start calling me Lalazai as the only reason why I do go there is get my hair cut. Most of the time these days, I hang out at Pavilion beg at the roadside.


Shit, me and my big mouth. There goes my reputation as Nuffnang employee. I hope Stewie doesn't fire me when he sees this picture.

At any rate, here comes the other camwhore of my blog~ ZuZu!


Be it kids or puppies, I think most people would agree that we should capture every moment of the growing up process as it only happen once. That's why I practically snap Zuzu's picture whenever I feel like it (and trust me, that frequency is a lot!).


Dogs are all greedy. Zuzu is no exception. Whenever you offer him food, he'll come running for it even if you're at the other end of the world. In order to tempt him to pose for camera, I simply muttered "Zuzu~~ mum mum!"

*mum mum is a Cantonese slang for food*


However, once he realized that it was a fake call by the bastard his lovely owner, he'll go into his "Ignore You" pose.


What a day to look back at the photos of me and Zuzu. Lol

Coca-Cola Euro 2008 Ground Event

Yet another press event. How wonderful.

Football is a passion in among a lot of people, especially the young adults and those bastards who bet. An event like this would normally gather a lot of attention from bloggers who want to attend, but due to the nature of the press events usually being during working hours, many hardcore fans couldn't turn up to cover the event. Thank God, I wasn't all alone there as a blogger as Joshua turned up to cover the event with me.

Okay, I admit, I personally placed bets for football games. But it's not often. Being someone who bets on football, technically I do know a lot about 22 guys with 2 small balls in their sack going after a bigger ball.


One of the miracles of football is, when you're actually watching it in a public place, you cheer out loud with everyone whenever your team scores. Be it mamak or pubs, you cheer with all your might when the final whistle goes off and your team victorious. You could even hug a complete stranger next to you (that is if he's rooting on your team, if he's the opposite, most likely he would have punched you for cheering).


So what has Coke got to do with Euro 2008? Apparently they're the official sponsor for the event and they're promoting their contest which the winner would be flew all the way to Austria to watch the final match of Euro 2008.


Okay, they are not that stingy. They're offering much more in terms of prizes. There's a 32" LCD Flat Screen TV from JVC to be given out and other merchandises as well. How do you enter the contest? Whenever you drink Coke, Coke Light or Sprite. Below the can opener or the bottle cap, there's going to be 3 alphabets/digits. If you see a GOL, you're getting a free trip to Austria, JVC for the 32" Flat Screen LCD. I bet this must be a very exciting news for Coke fans like my mate DJ. To top that, he's a football fan too.

Go drink Coke now if you want to go Austria or a new 32" LCD TV at home.

Since the event is all about football and Coke, there's lots of stuff regarding the 2 items. There were 2 girls spraying guys with their liquid ink.


Okay, it was a temporary tattoo. You get to choose either to have a Coke bottle on your body, or the word Coca-Cola. I chose the bottle.


And then there were cupcakes with Cokes and Footballs on them. Hmm, balls and a bottle. What does that remind me of?


That's an awful tiny one if you ask me. Lol.

They event hired Rashid Salleh to emcee the event. Remember him from Kopitiam? I forgot the names of other shows he has been in, but yeah, he's big in the local entertainment industry, no doubt about it. Joshua and I wasted no time to camwhore with him.


He went around giving away his balls to people who answered his questions correctly. I've got one of his balls!!! He gave me his ball!!


I now officially have 3 balls
Then Joshua went ahead and answered another question from him. With 2 balls at disposal, I could not hold myself but to imitate KennySia's famous poses.

Remember the Coconut pose? I had my share with footballs.


I've practically laughed my ass off reading about Furong Jie Jie and her pose from Kenny's blog. Since I compare the size of my balls as equal of Kenny's I can do what he did right?


First we have Furong Jie Jie


Then Kenny Sia


Now it's me!
Thank god there weren't journalists taking picture of me when I did that or else I'm definitely coming up in newspaper again!

Head Hunted

This is long bragging post on how good is my life and job

'Nuff said. Working with Nuffnang is great.

This is my first proper job in my life (Other improper jobs I've done - camwhore, blogger, model wannabe, host/emcee wannabe, pervert, gay, supreme leader of Zerg and etc) and I couldn't be more happier than now.


Not one of the things I do when I'm free
I mean what else can I ask when my job revolves heavily on what I love to do the most? Okay, fine. That would be sex. I mean other than sex.


Come on, you have to agree with me this is the best thing to do right?
Unless you're virgin?
Communications. That's what I love to do other than sex.

Yeah, in other words talking and harping and crapping and so on. But let's get serious, I'm not getting paid for that, okay? I need to manage events, contests and communicate efficiently with clients, potential clients, bloggers and many other publics. I have to track down feedbacks from bloggers and present our publicity value to sponsors and many more.

So in other words, it's not plain MSN and blogging like what I said before. I work around the clock attending emails and planning events. Bear in mind that my boss only pays me to work during office hours but being part of the Nuffnang team, nobody gives a damn till what time we work as we all put our best efforts for our beloved company.


Time ain't a factor for Nuffnang employees
To add icing on my delicious cake from Nuffnang, I'm paid generously and I get to attend various functions. Most of these functions are press related and thus, making one bold move would end you up in the media like what happened during the Digi Event. Not that I have anything against it, but wow, working in Nuffnang gets your face on newspaper each month? Now that's something I didn't see coming.


Enough nipple comments please
When your face appeared on newspapers twice in less than 30 days, your contacts start noticing you. I've got all kinds of teases about my nipples for the Pajama Party and now some of them are even asking me whether I'm working for Sin Chew Daily. After explaining to them what I'm actually doing, most of them are impressed with my job. Hehe, I'm such a lucky dude.

Then one of my bitchmate who I shall name D to protect his identity came knocking on me via phone call. He was head hunting me.


Thank God he didn't headhunt me this way
D: Wah, someone damn famous ady. In newspaper right and left. What ya you doing actually?

Robb: Well, more of a PR for an advertising company. I do all kinds of stuff in maintaining good relationships with various public.

D: How much are you paid currently?

Robb: Wei, asking a man his pay is like asking a woman her age. I'm not telling. XP

D: Lol. Okay. There's actually some vacancies in my company for Customer Service Executive. The job is fairly simple, all you gotta do is just answer calls and reply emails. The pay is quite handsome. RM1,600 for diploma holder. They don't really care what your diploma is as long as your England English is good. And if you're willing to work night shift it's another RM800 for allowance.

Robb: WTF? RM2,400 just to answer phones and reply emails? You gotta be kidding me! What company is that? Is it Lampa Burger? I freaking hate MLM companies.

D: Hell no. It's a dotcom company. Ever heard of SillyMobile (company name changed)? You can download wallpapers, ringtones and games from the site. That's my company. It's originally from Hong Kong, the office in KL is a branch.

In my mind, I was going, "Fuck sake! This job pays well!" But I thought I needed to know some extra details as well.

Robb: Shit, you're kidding me right? What about career prospect? What are the chances for advancements in the company? How about job security?

D: It's quite low. Most of the employee stays at their position for quite some time. So what do you say? Interested?

Upon his reply, I automatically have my answer.

Robb: Sorry, D. The pay sounds really good but what I'm doing currently has all the excitement I need to keep me thrilled and worked up. Besides, in terms of career prospect, I seriously believe my company has much more potential and I can go really far with it. Besides, my pay ain't bad at all at the first place. I wanna be an asset to my company and not extras who would be retrenched if the economy goes down.

He was alright with my answer and didn't pressed on the matter any further. I am quite certain he would be able to find people to fill the vacancies easily as there are a lot of peeps who only care about the pay and not career prospect. We continued bitching about people we know after that.

Technically saying, if I want a job that pays a lot, I would have finished my Chemical Engineering Degree in UTP. Working for PETRONAS, a Fortune 500 company for 10 years (my bond since they sponsored my studies) would get me enough experience and pay till I die choking on my money. But why did I left the course? It was because of my passion towards something else in life. My passion to communicate with people.


Fighting is a form of communication, actually
And Nuffnang is the place my passion found its place right after my studies finished. I wouldn't trade my job for another that pays slightly higher. I practically enjoy every single day I work for Nuffnang due to the work I do.

Using the quote from McD, I'm lovin' it. My job that is. :D

Custom Sucks

As usual, there's custom check everywhere when you're trying to leave the country or go into one. This includes before you start your Journey to the West.

Apparently this custom check even scan through the contents of your body. No X-ray.


Next update, Tang SanZang meets Sun Wukong.

Still Harping About Digi Event

I'm not done yet!! Lol.

Do you know that one of the things why people want to be journalists? It's to be showered with all these.


Okay, maybe not the bugs. But there are a lot of other goodies given away whenever there's a media launch. Technically, corporations always give out free goodies and even meals to journalists and members of the press in these functions to please them, in order to generate publicity in the mainstream media.

I didn't really get much from this event, as CopyKate got herself and iPod Shuffle and Joshua got himself a pendrive. What did I get? Well, let see..

A tumbler.


A CD case which Zuzu confiscated from me.


A Digi Yellow Man bookmark.


A cool notepad which can indicate dates and days for your particularly. I ensure that no time is loss to utilize it as I wrote rubbish on it.


It even came with a small sticky stream of papers that can be used to stick on things for reminder. Once again, I'm quick-witted and I thought of a prank thus I wrote something silly on it.


Any guesses on who's the sohai I pasted on?


Cheers
Robb

Journey to the West Begins

And so, Tang SanZang the monk readies himself for his long and difficult journey. As most Chinese story plots go, when someone intends to leave for such journey, he or she will always go and seek forgiveness and advise from their senior or parents.

How was the Great Wall of China built? By forced labor to be exact. But since most of them aren't really doing the job cause they're paid, will they screw things up?


Stay tune for more!

Digi Reload Contest Media Launch

Remember the millipedes?

They were actually invites for bloggers to attend the media launch of Digi Reload Contest.


Why were the millipedes there at first place? Well, it isn't only millipedes that were there. There were also..

Crickets. Lots of them to be precise..


Tarantula..


Camwhore..


Iguana..


What were those stuff (including the camwhore) doing there? Well, it's a fear themed roadshow organized by Digi. Technically they need fearsome things to challenge your guts right? Think about kissing an iguana, having a tarantula crawl on you, keeping your fist off the face of the stupid camwhore guy, getting in a cage full of snakes and pythons.

Yes, pythons.


Well, it's definitely a place for bloggers to be as we are all people with big balls! For more information about how we fared, you can refer to the Nuffnang blog later.

I'm just going to tell the tale about I, me and myself. As you guys would already knew, I have balls the size of durians.

I ate all types of their bugs cause I was curious on their taste. Their silkworm tasted like chicken while the grasshopper kinda tasted like anchovies.


Then yeah, I camwhored with Mr. Python.


I kissed an iguana and thanks to Julian, you get to watch it.


But someone else was more gutsy than me. He dared to take a picture with one of the most fearsome sights there. The camwhore guy.


Nice picture, Gary!!! Thanks! Lol.

Okay, I'll get serious in journalistic writing for awhile.

In contrary with the fear themed roadshows, Digi is actually having a competition for all their users to win cash prize and 1 year's free talktime every week. They're telling you in fact, that there's an easier way to win RM100,000 each week rather than having to participate in some crazy competition like Fear Factor.

Just simply reload/top-up your phone RM30 or above and you stand a chance to win prizes! If you're lucky, you'll get a phone call from them and if you answer their simple questions fast enough you'll win free talktime of RM50 for every month for 12 consecutive months! Winners will also be announced on Digi's site and press advertisements.

For those of you from other states who have balls comparable in size with mine and would like to participate in their roadshows to win freebies (I had my share of freebies which I would save for another blog post), these are the dates where they'll have their next roadshows.

• Queensbay Mall, Penang from 18-20 April
• Centre Point, Kota Kinabalu from 26-27 April
• Tebrau City, JB from 20-25 May

And guess what? I came up in newspaper again on last Sunday's Sin Chew Daily. Though I have no idea what they wrote, but I definitely appreciate my face in newspaper. Thank you~~~


Man, who says being a blogger don't get you anywhere?

Cheers
Robb

Wukong is Back!

Okay, not. We won't be seeing Wukong for some time as the story will focus on Tang SanZang for the moment. Finally my PC is up again!!!

So Tang the monk is embarking on a long journey. Very long~ and very hard~ *Quoted from Mr/Ms/Mr Garrison from South Park (pun intended). When you have a long journey ahead of you, what do you need? Correct, food!


More on Tang SanZang next update.

Sunday is Playday

Not exactly as I actually did a lot of work. Ask my colleagues and boss to testify on that. XD

But nevertheless, I get to enjoy a stroll on the weekend with my boyfriend, watched a movie and had some nice dining experience in Pavilion.

Being the camwhore that I am, I took pictures at random places.

I was at the washroom. No exposed penises are shown, no worries.


Then we went Friday's for a sip of drink, eating Onion Rings before our movie where I camwhored again.


Zach got tired of me camwhoring and punched me in the face started camwhoring as well.


Then when we left Friday's walking to the cinema, he posed again for the flash.


Then both of us did an ugly angle shot which we think is extremely hilarious. Be forewarned that if you're not prepared for it, you will suffer a nervous breakdown.

Scroll down pls~




















































Yes, we're fucking lame. Thank you for your time. XD

Stupid PC!

Okay, this is going to be a short post with literally no pictures.

My computer is 5 years old. It sucks big time as it regularly shuts itself off. Recently I reformatted my hard disk. In order to work, I need MS Office. Every time Office installs, it shuts itself off. I thought it was my Windows having problem, so I tried reinstalling Windows again.

Great. It shuts down half way when I'm installing Windows. Now I can't even enter Windows!!! Argh!!! There goes all my data!!

In the mean time, I'll be blogging using Zach's PC. That literally means no Sun Wukong comic strip!!

Sorry
Robb

The Monk

Introducing the monk, Tang Sanzang!

In case you can't read the small prints, it says

"The Mandarin characters for Hinayana and Mahayana teachings are respectively xiao cheng fa and da cheng fa which literally could mean little multiplication and great multiplication respectively"

So GuanYin the Goddess has spoken and asked for a pilgrim. Will there be many contenders wanting to go to India? Let's check.


Departing for a journey takes a lot of processes and protocols. We'll find out in the next update.

Cheers
Robb

Back to the Future

No, I don't own a car that allows me to travel back in time.

If you have no idea what this is, go watch Back to the Future by Michael J Fox
But somehow, I managed to obtain a digital service that allows me to manipulate time and space. What am I talking about? It's my Yahoo Mail.


If you noticed, it's still in the old version cause somehow I don't feel like clicking to switch to the new layout. But thanks to this, I am able to receive emails from the past at present time!!!

The screenshot below was not photoshopped nor a lie as it's been quite awhile that I've been receiving emails from the past. However, this is the first time I'm taking screenshots of it as before this I merely deleted them at a glance.


Freaking God! Today is April 11th, 2008 and I got an email from June 2001? I was still in high school back then!!

With this, my mischievous mind came up with something. I clicked reply and wrote the following;

To Whom It May Concern,

I'm not interested in your business proposal, but I do intend to pass you a message as I'm from the future. It's now year 2008 and PIGS have taken over Earth. Somehow in a laboratory in United States, pigs used in their studies have mutated and gained supreme intelligence. Within 1 month, they have managed to spread their mutation to all pigs on Earth and thus, now we are ruled by them.

Any form of resistance has been quenched as these mutated pigs have high production rate at 2 days pregnancy and 10 piglets at 1 go. George Bush and the United Nations have given up and surrendered to Khairy, the leader of the mutated pigs.

I plea to you from the future to start exterminating the pigs now. These pigs were originally from Malaysia. Their current Prime Minister is going to retire soon and do NOT let his successor take over as he would be the one to deliver the entire world to mutated pigs.

Please pass the word and exterminate Khairy especially.

Yours truly
Robb

I'm crossing my finger to wake up any day now not having any memory of Khairy and to see our PM is not... you know who. Lol.

Cheers

Seeking a Pilgrim

As we all do know, Lord Buddha intends to have a pilgrim from the East to visit India to bring back some sutra to help educate the people from their bad behaviors. Unfortunately, almost all published materials these days are not safe..

What would be the ideal condition for the pilgrim? Let's hear Buddha out.


Next update will see the debut of Tang Sanzang!

What Would You Do to Win RM100,000?

100k is a huge deal of money right?

Sure, it can't get you a house in these days, but it is still a big deal! The last time I checked, the game show Deal or No Deal is offering 100k as the top prize and people are queuing from miles to join the show.


On second thought, a lot of people enjoy looking at the girls carrying the brief cases ain't it?
Remember Fear Factor? The eerie things and daredevil stuff you have to do to win only RM25k? Or was it RM50k? I kinda forgot cuz the prize was pretty low and I didn't think it was justifiable enough for people to do that much for that sum of money.

Digi is doing something. Something daring. Any guesses what the picture below is?


It's not a piece of shit. It's a millipede

Look again.


Any ideas where I get picture of these guys from? It's from Digi's Press Invites!! They are having a media launch this Friday at One Utama and everyone from the media (including bloggers from Nuffnang) are given a Press Invite at the form of - A box of Millipede!


Don't get freaked out yet. There's a key dangling inside the box together with the Millipede. Your key might just be able to unlock one of their secret box which contains prize money during the launch!

Now who dares to take up the challenge to win some prizes with me this Friday? If you are a Nuffnang Glitterati member and would like to attend Digi's Media Launch for their Contest on Friday, 3pm at One Utama, drop me an email at robb.chew@nuffnang.com and I'll keep your millipede as healthy as a cow.

There are only limited Millipedes at my disposal, so grab them while they're still alive! Who knows, the Millipede might hold your key to RM100,000? Jeng Jeng Jeng~

In case you haven't saw this on National Television yet, you definitely should watch it here. Click play on the YouTube video below. Damn classic, mates.


This Friday, you'll see me carrying 30 boxes of millipedes walking around in One Utama. Please be there to make me trip and unleash the millipedes all over One Utama. Be sure to bring your cameras!

Cheers

Wukong Imprisoned

As we all do know, Wukong peed on Buddha when he was trying to fly out from his palm. Let's watch.

Gosh, he just realized that he's still on Buddha's palm. Or is he?


Okay, the next thing I'm telling you is rather stupid. You see.. I was cropping the files when I accidentally deleted 2 comic strips where one shows Buddha capturing Wukong and forming the 5 Finger Mountain. I know that's an important part, but I accidentally deleted it!!! ARGHH!!!!

Hope you guys won't get too mad for me. I'll give you another bonus strip today.


Next, the search for the pilgrim to the West begins.

Cheers

Buddha Vs Wukong

I'm really sorry for the lack of updates. I'm just stretching back my lazy arse as it has really been a very comfortable break for me. Let's get back to our comic shall we? This time I'll give 4 strips with a bonus picture.

Okay, here comes the religion part.

Thank God, Buddhism don't kill people over images of their God or else I'm as good as death the next day.

So Wukong escaped from the Brazier. He's damn mad and someone's going to pay making him undergo the heat treatment. Where do the Immortals run to escape his wrath?


Wukong, at first were skeptical of Buddha's role in solving the conflict he has with the Immortals.


So Buddha offers Wukong a deal, will he accept? Or would he wants something else?


Yeah, we know what the result of the duel is, but let's have fun watching shall we?


Next update, 5 finger mountain.

Cheers

Nuffnang in NST Again

Okay, as I'm officially Nuffnang's employee, I'm thrilled to find this out.

Being the modern generation, I hardly touch any newspaper as their content can be found online with ease. Due to the fact I had lots of DotA games last night, I kinda overslept today and didn't go through the news till late evening.

In fact, it even took my boss to tell me (he told me enthusiastically) that Nuffnang was on newspaper again. So I hoped on to NST online and search high and low to find the article. Man, was it difficult especially Stewie didn't even know where he saw the article, LOL.


Thank God WenQi remembered where. It's at Sunday People. Click here if you wish to read the article online. I wish I could show you a scan, but alas, due to the fact that I stay in a resident area of Mangoes (outside yellow, inside yellow people), English dailies are scarce and would be sold up before noon.


Due to the fact that I'm a banana, then they must be mangoes
Being someone who studied PR, publicity on the newspaper is always what we want and hope for. Even though this one wasn't exactly pitched for publicity, nevertheless, I'm thrilled to see my company in it.

Thank you Eve Majawat from NST for your kind pen.

Cheers

Radioactive Monkey

What happens if you put an evil monkey into a Nuclear Reactor for 49 days? Will he die before your electric bill arrives?

Somehow, Wukong survives the brazier. Hurray!!


Wukong would be dueling with Buddha for the coming updates. Stay tune~

Dachshund, Mongrel & Shih Tzu

My family and I love dogs.

I remember when I was just a toddler, there was a huge dog at my family's house. At that time, that house has 9 occupants in it excluding the family dog, that I don't know what his name was (too young to remember, or perhaps they didn't name him at all).

Okay, it ain't as huge as this nor was the same breed
Before I get any older to play with him, he died of cancer.


Yeah, 4 legs pointing towards the sky.
Typical dead dog pose.
After that, we never had a dog in the house due to the fact that both my parents didn't really like the idea of cleaning after their pee and poop. My childhood was deprived of having the company of men's best friend.

But the dog drought in the family was ended a few years ago, when my elder sister bought a Dachshund and named him BabyCoke. Her constant update on pictures of the dog made my younger sister eager to have one as well.


Okay, it's a little exaggerating, but you know how the youngest in the family always have the strongest persuasive power towards the parents
And coincidentally, her friend happened to have newborn puppies to give away too. Sure, it's not special breed or anything, but he's cute enough.

Seeing that both my siblings have a dog each, I can't help but bowed to the peer pressure. I've got myself ZuZu, a Shih Tzu.

Now my entire family has 3 dogs. Introducing BabyCoke the Dachshund.


BabyCoke is actually the oldest of them old. He's wise, strong and energetic. He's the friendliest dog among all as well. Whenever a guest comes into the house, once approved by us, he'll befriend him/her immediately, lying down next to them wagging his tail.

Unfortunately I don't really fancy his appearance cuz I'm a racist bastard. The short hair of his body made him just average dog to pat on. But at any rate, BabyCoke is indeed a loyal dog. He might be quiet but once he gets agitated, he's the fiercest of all our dogs.

Next in line, Stuart the Mongrel.


I can't believe that he grew this big! I still remember the day my sister brought him back. He was as tiny as ZuZu! At any rate, he's actually the naughty dog. He growls a lot, gets disgruntled easily and extremely picky with his food. He enjoys being comfortable (refer picture below).


But he's still a good company. In fact, he gets jealous a lot if you show BabyCoke more interest and love. Lol. He barks at every single stranger who comes into the house but that's all he does. He's secretly a coward. XD

The newest addition to the family dogs, ZuZu the Shih Tzu (I know it rhymes gaily!)


At 3 months old now, he's much more active than before. He starts biting a lot though it ain't painful yet. His fur is no doubt the best in comparison with BabyCoke and Stuart. He's extremely good with people as he approaches everyone who came in the door with full enthusiasm. Once you start touching his body, he'll get all over your face~ licking!


Due to the fact that he has yet to take his 3rd immunity injection, I can't take him out that much as sickness is common for young pups like ZuZu. But even at home, he's busy all the time. He daily routine includes waking us up to go work by licking our face. Then he'll proceed to show his cute face asking for food. When we're away, he'll have his time biting his toys and sleeping.

Once we get home, then it's grooming time where his fine hair is combed and untangled (if there are any). The best part of all, he shits and pees only on newspaper (though he does get mischievous at times). Put him on your chest when you're lying down, and he'll stay still for you to pat him!


Though he's definitely not a good guard dog for any house, but he's definitely making my life merrier.

Dogs are indeed men's best friends.

Cheers
Robb

Wukong Hotpot

When you can't kill your prisoner, you torture them right? Smack 'em silly in the heads!

Okay, that didn't work either. Looks like we've to cook him up in the good ol' traditional hotpot. By hotpot I mean brazier. And by brazier I mean Nuclear Reactor.


How would Wukong survive this? Stay tune to find out.

Cheers
Robb

Damn Freaking Sick

Geez, I don't know whether my body immune system is weak due to AIDS or the weather is hazardous to my health.

One moment of the day the sun is damn hot. The next thing we know, it's raining elephants and hippos with occasional tigers and lions roaring.

In case you're looking for the animals, they were exaggerated
As I'm currently taking a break for my studies, I had more time at home which is more exposed to outside weather compared to being inside Nuffie-offie. And by that, it literally means more heat wave, more cold wind and the abrupt temperature swing which I seriously consider worse than a woman's mood swing.


God knows what she's angry about.
Girls don't need a reason to get mad the last time I checked
As a result of the PMS weather we are currently enjoying in Malaysia, I fell sick right after coming back from Ipoh.

I was all cheerful and happy on bus trip back to KL and I went yeah~~ I'm given blessing by my dad to work as a Nuffiepuff (seriously, I do think it sounds really gay!) for Nuffnang.


Yea~~ I'm a camwhore
I whore myself even when I'm on a bus trip~
Fast forward 24 hours. Look at where I ended up on.


If you wish to donate money to cure me, please feel free to email me
I was down with fever, diarrhea, giddiness and occasional puki-ing puking. Girls, I don't know how you all feel when your aunt visits you every month, but getting visits from these brothers could definitely give your aunts a run for their money.


Run Nun! Run!!
Your aunt is chasing after you for a lifetime!
I'm real sorry if I can't update as much as I used too despite the fact I'm not working for the time being (supposed to have more time for myself). So in case you come knocking on my bloggie for things to read, you could take time listening to my nostrils arguing with each other.


Wish me a speedy recovery please.

Cheers

Kill Wukong

Can the Immortals kill Wukong successfully? Arrows can't hurt him. Swords got reflected. How about a direct swing of the sword to the neck. Would that work?

Okay, not. But definitely monkey brains are highly valuable in the black market.

What do you do when someone is about to hide your head? You duck right?


Next, Wukong is placed in a brazier!!

Stay tune.

Cheers

A New Chapter of Life

This is an emo post which is rather long. Stop reading if you feel that guys who talk about emotions are gay. Oh wait, I am gay.

Let's see. How many chapters of life have I gone through?

I've learned how to walk.

I've always been the active one among my siblings. In other words, mischievous. If I don't recall wrongly, among my siblings, I've received the most punishments from my parents. Lol.

I attended school in my beloved Alma Mater, St. Michael's Institution.


It's the place where I learned a lot about friends, games, education and lots of other shits. It is also the place where my parents were damn proud of me, as I was always the top of the class and performed remarkably well in public examinations. My dad, being the strong, ego type kept his cool despite my excellent achievements.

After SPM, I was granted a sort of scholarship by PETRONAS to further my studies in Chemical Engineering Degree Programme at Universiti Teknologi Petronas, Tronoh. It was a state-of-the-art education facility. My parents were once again proud of their son, for being the first one to receive a scholarship in the entire extended family.



Unfortunately their pride in their son didn't last long. Throughout the 2 years I was in UTP, I was miserable studying the subjects. What the lecturers taught in lectures didn't interest me even the tiniest bit. But not all the time spent there was loss. I was involved with a huge array of activities by various societies and clubs such as the International Cultural Club, Rotaract Club and etc. From these clubs I learned about communication and relations management which I have passion for. I even spent much more time for these activities compared to my studies.

Eventually, I started failing in my subjects. Despite that, I wasn't unhappy with what I did. In fact, I started thinking again, about my life and what I want to do. I quited UTP after I decided that I want to pursue something that I'd enjoy doing in my life.

My parents were very disappointed by their son. Their pride no longer exist. Relatives who used to speak highly of their son now regard him as a dropout, reject and a failure. But nevertheless, my dad supported my decision to pursue my dreams despite the emotional torment he had to endure from the extended family.

Then, I enrolled myself for a Diploma in Mass Communication, specializing in Public Relations at TAR College, KL.


My parents were skeptical of me. They worried that I would be distracted by the city life in KL. Things went smoothly as I did quite well for the first 3 quarters of my studies. My parents grew relieved of their son.

However, their financial means weren't as good as they were a few years back. My dad is a 2 years old retiree and my mum only makes approximately 1k per month. My elder sister and I are living off their money monthly.

My final semester ended right before Chinese New Year 2008. I personally hoped that my results would be alright despite I had some difficulty in answering the paper for one of the subjects. But it came out the other way.

I failed that paper.


My parents were once again, heartbroken to learn of my failure.


Okay, pause. Let's rewind to another perspective (like Vantage Point). Let's see what was I doing right after Chinese New Year.

As I thought my last semester has ended right before CNY, I had plans to further my studies. My most likely route was to do an Advanced Diploma in TARC for 2 years and follow up with a 3 months program in UK to earn a Bachelor Honors Degree from Sheffield. The cost of the upcoming 2 years and 3 months would tally up to approximately 60k with expenses included.

The only likelihood of me being able to make it is to get a loan. PTPTN and KOJADI for both Advanced Diploma and the UK top-up program. I went and checked out the rate of interest for both loans. PTPTN is good, 3% per year while KOJADI is probably one of the worst loan sharks ever - 7% for 1st year, 8% for 2nd year and 9% for 3rd year till loan is repaid.


Some of the loan foundations are Ah Long with license..
Since I had 2 months of free time, I decided to do something with it. What did I do? I joined Nuffnang.


I totally enjoyed my experience working with Nuffnang. There wasn't anything to complain at all. The tasks, the boss, the colleagues, the community, everything was so wonderful. I was also doing what I learned in my course, Public Relations! I was partially involved in that field. Guided by the PR superwoman, Kimberly our Nuffnang Pajama Party made it into the 2 biggest English dailies ever, The Star and NST!


My nipples even appeared on a half page size picture
It was at right at that time, my results of examination was announced. The euphoric atmosphere was quenched. I had to face the disappointment of my dad.

At the same time, I started to think more about my future. I did some calculations on the loan that I would undertake if I am to further my studies and how long would I take to repay the amount. The shortest route with extreme thriftiness in my spending would take 4 and half years. I don't really enjoy using money that I would need to pay in the future if I can help it.


That's why I personally don't really endorse credit cards
At the same time, I expressed interest to Boss Stewie that I might want to work for Nuffnang permanently. He was delighted and he offered me a permanent position in the office with a very reasonable pay. I was very honored.

Unfortunately, I can't make that decision without seeking the blessings of my parents. Thus, I traveled back to my hometown yesterday to seek their blessings and opinion on this matter.


Just for illustration purposes.
How I wish every time I travel back to hometown, I can fly!
My parents were very open minded about my options in life. They were understanding and patient enough to hear me out. They gave me their full blessing if I choose to work. They also advised that I should continue to pursue a higher education in the same time as part time student which I agreed whole-heartedly.

With their blessing, now opens a new chapter in my life.

Employment.


I thank you, dad and mum for your ever-lasting support on whatever I do in my life. I couldn't have asked for anything more than that. You gave me all the basic necessities in life and something that is beyond any measurement, love. Thank you.

Boss Stewie, thank you for appreciating me as your employee despite the fact that I'm still green in the field of employment. I thank you for giving me a chance to shine.

Thank you.

Cheers
Robb

Monkey Execution

Real sorry for the lack of update. Had a series of eventful days which I'd talk about it later. Here's the Wukong comic just to buy time for me to write my blog post.

So they caught Wukong. Can they execute him? Yes they can. Succeeding in doing that might be a problem with sword.

Okay, melee doesn't work. How about range?


Nope. Doesn't go through either. Stay tune for more.
