Frash ur GCB at MTV World Stage for Jetsetter Badge

By satkuru  //  blog  //  5 Comments

The title has no meaning on it’s own. So don’t even bother deciphering what i meant. Hahaha. I had a bunch of key words that i wanted to put in my title and so i came up with the lamest way possible to link them up. Anyway here’s a short update on what will be posted up soon and what have I been up to for the past few weeks.

I finally had my first GCB burger aka Grilled Chicken Burger and my verdict is ….. It’s aight.

The price is the only major setback. If McDonalds could only replace McSpicy with GCB.

Recently I had the chance to ride on an ATV thanks to a certain company that loves giving cheap deals. The colours of the ATV does not signify anything lol.

I checked my blog thru my Safari in my iPhone and I saw large signs of Flash O.O!

No no, no one is mocking about the inability to play flash on iDevices but I was trying out Frash which enables Flash. Not bad actually but I never bothered using flash on my phone. It all comes down to personal preference.

It rained like cats and dogs before the event even started. The rain sizzled out after Bunk Face finished. I would call this a concert because everything was done to look good on TV. For that, we the audience we left waiting for more than 30 to 45 minutes between acts.

What ever it is I thought Tokio Hotel brought the house down! Thank you Blup Blup for the tickets! :)

Do you Tumblr?

By satkuru  //  blog  //  2 Comments

I came across this platform quite sometime back but it never clicked me to use it as i am always on the go and i needed something on my phone which was fast enough to punch away and attach photos if possible.

Then i was told by Joshua that there’s an app for Tumblr in AppStore.

There and then, i downloaded and started off.

Not like it’s gonna replace this blog but at least now i have a place to post up random pictures and also write super random entries.

The past few hours i realized there are quite a number of people that already have or had just registered with Tumblr. The next big question was whether it does the same like blogspot.

Well you do have to get use to it’s way of handling different categories of entries.

photo5 Do you Tumblr?

These are the categories for your entries and each of it will have slightly different presentation which is kinda cool ! I have yet to try all of it but by the looks of how the quotes appeared, i can say the rest should be as eye pleasing as the rest.

One problem i had was that there’s no comment functionality. Tumblr doesn’t have the comment system built in.

So what do you do to have comments in Tumblr?

Disqus.com !

Upon signing up, you will be asked to choose a shortname for Disqus. Then headover to the Dashboard of your Tumblr, click Customize which is on your right side bar. Find for Appearance which is on the top bar and inser the created shortname from Disqus into “Disqus Shortname” section.

Walla !

Now you have comment function in your Tumblr !

Of course this only works automatically for certain templates. If it doesn’t appear, then grab the codes from Disqus and paste it in the html code :)

Happy Tumblr-ing and Happy Commenting !

Btw, mine is WTFish.tumblr.com !

Hahaha i was bored ok when i was choosing a name :P

An award for my blog or April Fools Prank?

By satkuru  //  blog  //  7 Comments

Yesterday i had the chance to be at the Sepang F1 Circuit for a tour around Vodafone McLaren Mercedes garage thanks to Lenovo Malaysia. Basically it’s to highlight how Lenovo has been integrated into the team and it’s definitely an eye opener. That i will talk about in my upcoming entry.

What i wanted to focus on was that yesterday was April 1st, April Fools Day and i have always tried to be more alert when it comes to pranks.

After having breakfast with the good people of Lenovo Malaysia, we were briefed by Mr Khoo on how Lenovo and F1. After the briefing, he was to give out a token of appreciation and naturally i took my camera out.

Little did i know, i was the recipient when i was called up.

Looking rather confused, i think i took a good few seconds that it’s not a prank and i better get myself up there. Upon receiving, i was amazed that my name was on it as well as my url.

MY BLOG URL !

I was like woahhhhh ! I had had trophies for scrabble, monopoly and even cooking competition *yes i won 1st prize in cooking and no it’s not April Fools* but never had anything for my blog. Though i have reduced in the amount of entries compared to a few years back, i still do try to write whenever i have the spare time.

It is in a way funny to see the url there, hehehe.

F1 008 An award for my blog or April Fools Prank?

I took a snap shot and sent to my mum. My mum asked if i don’t have anything better to do on April Fools Day, hahaha. An interesting way to start April.

Thanks again Lenovo Malaysia and Mr Khoo for being very hospitable host :)

On the side note, the next few days will determine if Manchester United will be trophy-less for this season. With Rooney out of the game for at least the next few week. Opponents like Chelsea and Bayern Munich will definitely try to make the most out of it. To make maters worse interesting, both games will be played at Old Trafford.

Any predictions? :)

Nuffnang = Cambodia

I am finally back!

Well let me say that i am very excited to see what 2009  have installed for me. In slightly more than a week from now, i will be off to Cambodia for 6 days with 6 friends of mine and that is definitely gonna  have me missing  from my blog yet again.

The idea of Cambodia was first conceived when i was strolling about on the sandy beach of Redang Island after a crazy day at Nipple Island. Initially, in the morning, i received a call from my mum saying i had cheques from Nuffnang and that she had already banked it in. Knowing i had extra cash in hand, i jokingly asked William and Angeline, …

“Come let’s go Cambodia ….”

All right !

William was fast to say he was in. I can’t even be sure if he even took time to thinkbang wall

Angeline on the hand took probably a few seconds longer before agreeing to join the bandwagon …

… and that’s how things got rolling. One by one the rest joined in, Lee May, Aaron, Ai Ling and Emily. I am excited, everyone is excited cause no one knows what is gonna happen as our plans are kinda sketchy. Keeping our fingers crossed that everything goes as planned :)

Personally i am definitely happy with how Nuffnang has changed the blogosphere especially in Malaysia (… and also in the other countries that they are invading). Thanks to them, i have the extra moolah which enabled me to get my flight tickets to Cambodia.

On the side note, also related to Nuffnang, this coming Saturday would be the auditions of Malaysian Dream Girls in Kuala Lumpur which is also the final audition for this season.

Date 10 Jan 09 (Saturday)
Time 10am – 5pm
Venue Impiana KLCC Hotel & Spa

I’ll be there … in fact Andrew will also be there and we will both be covering the event on behalf of Malaysian Dream Girls. My counterparts, Simon Seow and Intan or better known as Malaysian Super Mummy :P will also be there but earlier.

So if you have what it takes to be a model, then don’t forget the details above. Drag your friends along :P

See you all there ;)

Merry New Year everyone !

P/S: I just realized my last entry was written last year >.<! LOL
