Snail mail from Nicole Tan

nicole mail

I just came back from a really enlightening conversation about life and relationships in general to a dark house and picked up two pieces of mail – one was for my car insurance premium for RM 1,704.60 (=_=!!!) which I have to pay before next month and the other was a padded largish envelope.

The writing at the back says “Sorry it took so long, but here you are”. It’s the autographed copy of The Star from two months back with a feature of me by Nicole on sixthseal.com.

I have read the article in the online version of The Star and was surprised at the more positive key in the actual paper.

The front page Saturday Metro text has Drug blogger turns over a new leaf” which is a much better angle than the “Former drug blogger comes clean about his past” headline that the online version features.

I asked Nicole for an autographed copy of the paper and she finally got around to sending it to me. ๐Ÿ˜‰ The article is an interview about sixthseal.com and my experience as a drug blogger in the past and how I’ve turned my life around.

Nicole wrote “To Huai Bin, Hope you continue to thrive in life, be happy in whatever you do” on the top of the article…

…and autographed the bottom with “You’ve been Nicolekiss-ed!!” ๐Ÿ™‚

Thanks for sending me the papers Nicole, much appreciated! I like the article in the off-line version, it’s much more positive.

Well, at least it can’t get any worse than this. ๐Ÿ˜‰

  4. Your success in life is how much you want to make of it and it great it happened. Some of my now late friends failed . They did’nt and the results is where they are now. Try to helped them and even went as far to informed the polices to get them off and into a program. But when on it again and that how they end life forever.
    I know these guys parents and how they suffer the loss so who ever out there Stay Clean and Out of Drugs.

  5. Your story how you turn around is so wonderful. My story is of a friend I had who wanted to be like and popular. Met a guy who was on drugs and got her hook too. I try to tell her to dump guy and get help. She could’nt and police found her dead at home from OD. I reported guy and they found drugs on him and pushing it too. He in prison now for a long time.
    Her parents still at loss for what happened. Friend was a nice and quiet person. She was smart but not enough to get unhook and away from him.

  6. I use to live in this apt. where downstairs my neighbor apt. had a strange smell coming out of it. My landlord did’nt do anything at all about it. Notice why some guy across the street look like a homeless looking at apt. Found he was cop and tenant was a drug pusher and user. They arested him somewhere for pushing to minors and now serving a long sentence. When he is out relocated to different place to live. His father also in prison for pushing too. Tenant girlfriend arested too for stealing drugs supplies from hospital where she used to work to help make(More Powerful Drugs)he sell.
    I glad you clean yourself of habit and living a decent life. Landlord knew but did’nt care or fear him but endanger many tenants and some with childen in apt. building.

  16. As the technology developed so quickly, many manufacturers take this advantage to make duplications of other famous brands, Nike is no doubt one of the most famous sports brand in the world, no wonder the more famous Nike is, the more fake Nike shox shoes appears. So how could we tell the differences between genuine one and the fake one?The following three ways will help you became the Nike expert.Texture There is no doubt that the texture of real Nike shoes is different from that of fake ones, and this is also one of the key factors that helps you identify the Nike shoes. It is known to all, except for the Nike brand advertising and development costs, the materials used in shoes itself is indeed expensive which fake shoes will definitely not imitate. Usually, fake shoes developers will recruited lower grade textures according to the real shoes materials and properties to act as their imitation materials.1, upper material Nike basketball shoes usually applied with imitation leather which contains a higher fiber density than leather, and the toughness and permeability are even better than leather, at the same time ,it is not easy to deformation. Therefore, a good imitation leather material is much more expensive than the price of leather. Generally, simulation shoes would not use such kind of material, thus, we can check out the gloss, and squeeze, pull or stretch the microfiber PU to feel the flexibility and toughness.2, upper craft Crafts like: hot-cutting, micro-injection and etc applied in the shoes could help us as well. Though same in appearance, fake shoes always use the materials with no flexibility, suppose you wear a Nike air max shoes in cold winter, there are possibilities that your shoes may fracture.3, sole No matter how similar between the real and fake one. There are still differences at the sole of shoes. Sometimes, the real one will add some chemical raw materials, recycled materials or carbon to make shoes more wear-resistant and non-slip. While the fake one will not take this into consideration. Here is a little trick: wearing a pair of real Nike air max shoes walking on the plastic floor, you will hear a very loud reak?sound, while the fake one, under normal circumstances, could absolutely make no such voices.

  17. I don’t like your template but your posts are quite good so I will check back! Character based languages like the Chinese language enable them to say whole lot more in the same amount of characters, something which is interesting to think about and it challenges the character limit in many ways and the way that Twitter is used by other cultures.
