I just got my Christmas gift from my girlfriend…
…it’s an Armani Exchange t-shirt.
Real one okay, not from Petaling Street. RM 169.
Thank you dear. 🙂
Merry Christmas to everyone!

I have been reading about Berry and Lemon’s dismal travel repertoire on their blog. I come from Sarawak so it’s something akin to heresy to hear that they haven’t been to East Malaysia before this. Thus, I took it upon myself to take them on my trip to Cameron Highlands. It’s a double date of sorts – me and my girlfriend and the two lovebirds (loveberries?).
I was browsing through Berry and Lemon’s blog and read about the Ribena with Lemon Greatest Love contest they’re running and decided to join in the fun. I figured Cameron Highlands would be the perfect place to shoot the photos for the “Most Romantic” category so I loaded my car boot with heaps of Ribena with Lemon and drove up.
The Ribena with Lemon Greatest Love contest is separated into two categories – “The Greatest Lover” is judged with the most Ribena with Lemon bottles or mobile packs in a single picture while “Most Romantic” is judged with the most creative entry featuring at least one Ribena with Lemon bottle or mobile pack in the most romantic manner possible.
To increase my chances, I decided to join both. 😉
Most Romantic
This was taken at Bala’s Chalet @ Cameron Highlands where we stayed.
The place has a really nice garden, very Tudor style English ambiance.
It’s supposed to show me looking affectionately at the couple (Berry and Lemon) in the garden where we had tea and scones. My purple cardigan matches the Ribena colors too. This is the one I submitted.
There is also one with the four of us – the double date. =D
The Greatest Lover
My theme for this is The Godfather. The Don of Ribena with Lemon. Real power cannot be given. It must be taken. 😉
I joined both of the contests, spending a staggering amount on Ribena with Lemon bottles. I went to Giant Mall to purchase a box of Ribena with Lemon but they didn’t have any in stock so I just grabbed whatever I could off the shelves and headed over to 7-Eleven, took whatever they had and proceeded to a smaller Giant (pun not intended) and swiped all their Ribena with Lemon bottles.
The Ribena with Lemon Greatest Love Contest is open until the 20th of December, 2008. You can join both categories and submit as many photos as you want. However, you’re only entitled to win from one category. The prizes are:
The Greatest Lover Category
The Most Romantic Category
I am interested in snagging the Dell Notebook from either category. There is a recent spate of…domestic disputes, shall we say, over the use of the only notebook in our condo. I need it to update my blog and my girlfriend wants to watch HK drama series on it.
I’m sure Berry and Lemon can understand, and for the sake of love, take our predicament into consideration when judging the entries. 😉

I am Osama bin Laden and I have managed to smuggle two grenades despite the foolish US attempts to blindfold me and tie my hands behind my back. Jihad! Death to infidels! Or something.

OMG! Cindy Tey of MDG fame.
Why you wanna dominate me like this Jolyn?
Okay, put on your scary faces Ginny and Nath, I’m taking all you down with me. Explosive duct (grenade) taped (stuck) in my mouth, and nothing’s gonna change my mind. I won’t listen…to anyone’s last words. There’s nothing left for you to say, coz soon you’ll be dead anyway. 😉
I know, I know, I’m slow – despite getting a SIN 26 broadband connection (24 hours), I was out most of the day so I didn’t get to update. I didn’t get to sleep much too. We stopped at a rest area on the way to Singapore for lunch. The food is nothing to write home about (it’s a rest stop!)…
…and I found out that Audrey really is 4 feet 9. She makes me feel tall. 😉
We checked into the Marriott at Orchard Road and some hijinks which should probably not be published happened e.g. this dubious photo of Eiling being er…molested by us…
…and some naughty girl on girl action.
(as well as the infamous 7 second shot)
I don’t even have a caption for this photo.
Sneak peak: The girls dressing up. Eiling and Natalie dropped by to change.
I was about to get changed. Sorry for being late (and passing out). :p
We got all dressed up for the costume party – I was assigned the letter O so I went as Osama bin Laden (after being brought into US custody but still given a cigarette before being sent away) but I ended up being P.
More details and photos tomorrow! 🙂
Nuffnang Singapore is organizing an event tonight so us Malaysian bloggers were invited to the event. There’s 18 of us is this bus and we’ll be reaching Singapore for the costume party later tonight.
We’re supposed to rendezvous at the Nuffnang office in KL, where the bus will shuttle us all the way down to KL. There’s a lot of familiar faces here, most of which you’ll recognize from the blogging scene.
Tumpang glamour a bit. Cindy!
Ginny Yap, who’s sick and half asleep.

Here’s a video of our road trip with everyone introducing themselves. More updates coming soon. 🙂
Suanie and gang came the latest and all she had to say was this. 😉
I have just received word that Osama bin Laden has been apprehended and will be heading down (heavily guarded, of course) to Singapore at 10 am tomorrow morning. He will be making an appearance at the vPOST-Nuffnang Christmas Bash 2008 tomorrow night. I hear he’s staying at the Marriott Hotel at Orchard Road for the night.
Please do not expect the Osama bin Laden you’ve been used to seeing in the infrequent videotaped appearances he has made in channels like Al Jazeera. The US forces has shaved off his beard (and some of his hair) and made him take off his headscarf. He is expected to be blindfolded and restrained on his way to Guatemala Bay. He will also be wearing a military issue bulletproof vest instead of his usual camouflage jacket and his AK-47 will naturally not pass Singapore customs.
Osama bin Laden is so 2001, so thanks to Edmund, he has received a total makeover. I had a great idea for a 2008 Poh Huai bin Laden and the storyline that goes with it and his costume shop is a treasure trove to manifest my sudden fit of inspiration! 🙂
The Nuffnang Malaysian bloggers are heading down to Singapore tomorrow.
See ya all in the Sin City! =D
Watchu mean two lines is bad?
I have posted about my attempts to win myself (and you) a free party here and here. It has come to my attention that there’s no possible way I can drink so many cans of F&N drinks in such a short time, so I magnanimously shared it with all and sunder. I even gave some to the condo security guards. Anyway, I noticed something about the F&N cans after having opened so many cans:
I’ve discovered a method where you can get a smiley face (!) on the can by removing the pull tab in a certain way. Hold the can and twist the pull tab to a 90 degree position. Do not make contact with the opening. This is very important. Pull the tab upwards without excessive force and gently remove the tab.
Do you see the F&N smiley face with the eyes (two dots), nose (the pull tab fastener) and smile (the opening)?
It even has a halo on top, like an angel. I’m getting a good vibe about this.
Looks like someone up there loves me. 😉
I shall be sending in my entries on Wednesday. I’ve gotten a bunch of the contest forms and will be posting them via regular mail with two pull tabs each. I’m bracing for the postal charges since it seems that I will have to send it in one by one.
Pos Malaysia, here I come! =D
James was kind enough to email a friend of his in F&N and direct her to my post so I’m hoping they will take notice of this. Help me spread the word my fellow bloggers! Unite!
They may take our lives, but they’ll never take our FREEdom!!!!!! 😉
The rogue nation of PamSong has attacked our nation’s homeland as of 0800 today. As the President of the Sovereign State of sixthseal.com, we cannot allow the dictator of this rogue state to terrorize our citizens. The buck stops here! It ends here, right now!
The terrorist nation of PamSong, with her Weapons of Mass Persuasion…er, I mean Destruction must end. PamSong has oppressed her citizens, deprived them of their human rights. My Secretary of Defense has informed me that she is harboring WMPs in some vague, remote site on her blog.
Although I personally doubt the veracity of the claims, I must act in the interests of the citizens of sixthseal.com.
I hereby declare a State of War between the nations of sixthseal.com and PamSong.
This is my Presidential Address:
You are either WITH us or AGAINST us.
There is no middle ground.
These verbal terrorists operating under a fake regime must be stopped at all costs.
I hereby announce Operation Enduring FREEPARTYdom against the State of PamSong.
We shall launch our attacks against this regime at 0800 tomorrow. Our (net) carrier fleet is on its way as I speak.
P/S – Did you know that the brother of PamSong is renowned for abducting virile chicks off the streets of Baghdad, er…I mean PamSong Nation? Join the allied forces in preventing these atrocities towards bloggers!
Straight from the horse’s mouth – Pinky Tham Waiping, born and bred in KL. I just came back from work, have been working OT a lot lately. It’s okay with me though coz I am one of the rare (lucky?) people who like their jobs. I’m a copywriter by trade so I have to watch out for grammar and typos – but not on my blog…on my blog, I’m free to make as many mistakes as I like! It’s an outlet for me! 🙂
Anyway, I saw the notice above in the condo lift just now. Some tenant who needs to attend anger management classes ripped it off, but it was stuck back by security. Power outage from 2 pm till 6 pm. Doesn’t affect me, I usually get home rather late. This is a crappy post coz I have to work on a pitch later so let us segue into something else.
I went to PC Fair (by proxy) to get a 640 GB USB 2.0 drive and a pair of Sony MDR headphones. I couldn’t actually go coz I had to go to an event so one of my coworkers got the stuff for me. Damage to the wallet: RM 418.
I shall post again tomorrow – in the meantime, I’m going to pimp an event for a friend – Comic Fiesta. It’s going on this weekend at Sunway Convention Center. I will not be going since I’m going to Singapore for the weekend, unfortunately. Click on the link to read more about it if you’re into anime, manga, cosplay or just games in general.
Pat, you owe me lunch. 😉
