it has always been my aspiration to organize an event where i can actually take time to eat the food served, actually take photos and actually mingle with people, but i believe this will never really happen :P i swore to myself i would chill out during the Pajama Party but i obviously didn’t, because i was running around so much that i didn’t get to try the food (except for a .. something? a spring roll? that wenqi gave me. sniff i love you wenqi) nor take a single photo with my camera.
BUT I HAD SO MUCH FUN.
AND SO DID EVERYBODY BECAUSE IT’S ALL OVER THE BLOGS.
and so i am very happy :)
and thank god for official photographers because we got some pretty good pictures over here, courtesy of the one and only Kid Chan. i dont feel so bad now for not having any photos!

#10 that’s Daniel (who came in zombie makeup?!) on the right and Keng Jin on the left. this was during the I Need Something game, and the ’something’ was a pair of slippers belonging to somebody, haha! i think both Daniel and Keng Jin grabbed one slipper each and got to stage on the same time.. so the emcee made them break the tie by doing push-ups with a Nuffie on top. HAHA so clever!!! Daniel won. eh Daniel don’t need to be lawyer already lah.. you can be a gym instructor!
#11 this is Liang, our awesome emcee conducting the Couple Wristband game. Liang is seriously the best emcee ever. EVER. he’s very good with improvising, fluent and comfortable with working the crowd, energetic, pleasant and very likeable. so if you need an emcee for your event, you know where to holler :) his website is over here. and i chose this picture because he looks damn funny in here hahaha
#12 the great Kenny Sia arrives! when he came onstage, everyone started yelling “WHERE ARE YOUR PAJAMAS?!?”, so he dropped his pants to reveal his boxers. damn sporting right. Kenny we love you!!!
#13 Kenny was hosting the Malaysian Dreamgirl event, where 11 of the Malaysian Dreamgirls made an appearance at our party and played games with the guests
#14 each Dreamgirl would strike a pose, and an audience member had to strike the same pose to win RM200 worth of Wella products. to the winners who have yet to collect their Wella prizes, please leave a comment here and we will get back to you!
#15 birthday cake from Mindshare <3
#16 the bosses surprised me by giving me a teddy bear and a framed card onstage :( sniff. i was so terharu!!! thank you, guys :) seeing everyone having fun that night was thanks enough for me. but this doesn’t mean you can take back the card and bear!! even though Firdauz wrote that stupid message on it :P it says- “you’re not cool, you’re overrated. and nobody likes you, except for us here at Nuffnang.” hahahaha Firdy that is the same message you put on my birthday card. why are you so unoriginal!
#17 this is Desmond The Client from Mindshare holding up the Macbook for the most number of Chipster packs in the ‘I Sleep Better With Chipster’ posts. the prize went to Jonathan of Penangite.net. you can check out his CRAZY post here
#18 David Lian won the Nintendo Wii prize for Quirkiest post, when i believe he was only aiming for the Best Pajamas prize. seriously, check out that outfit made from Chipster packets, okay!!! haha congrats David; you deserved it! i think you also earned yourself the nickname Chipster Man for the night. people probably thought you were a mascot that Chipster sent :P David’s post is here.
#19 Valerie won the iPod touch for the Best Pajamas post! how could she not win this prize; she actually handmade that top herself, along with two other Chipster pillows that were making their rounds at the party. so creative! click here to check out her post
#20 hehehe then us Nuffnangers surprised the bosses with a pair of undies that Estee made! the undies both read, ‘My Staff are blogging THIS!’. damn right we are :P
#21 then we made them put on the undies hahahaha
#22 and this is me being Central Bank and pumping liquidity back into the market for the Lumix Bidding Game after people started running out of money. you know why everyone ran out of money ah!! cos this KYSPEAKS kept winning everybody’s money!!!!!
#23 you see you see! he got so much money that he won the auction for the Panasonic camera. thank you Panasonic for sponsoring the prizes :)
#24 and this dude Roshann won the auction for a kiss from Dawn Yang, Miss Clapbangkiss herself. DAMN LUCKY. I ALSO WANT DAWN YANG TO KISS ME.
#25 this is one of the many teddy bears we bought to decorate the place. guests got to take them home after the party :)
#26 me and one of the white cushions also bought to decorate the venue. guests ALSO got to take the cushions home! sigh we are so generous. picture taken by Simon
aiyo i got a funny story to tell you all about the cushions and the teddy bears. did you folks notice the two old ladies at our party? i don’t know who they are because they weren’t wearing our event wristbands, and neither our malaysia or singapore team recognized them. anyway they went around stuffing our teddy bears and cushions into their handbags. i was very appalled when one of them grabbed a cushion from me as i was arranging them around the venue, insisting that she wanted a cushion, while the other one kept bugging me to give her one of our prizes because we supposedly ‘forgot’ to give her a prize. wtf. she was so rude that i just ignored her. and then she went to bug Stewie instead -______-
geez. i’m very angry because those bears and cushions cost us a lot of money, yet they went around just stuffing our decor items into their bags and then leaving the place. steal our stuff already then want to demand for prizes. wtf. why dont these people know how to behave in public.
and then there were some bloggers who gatecrashed. not even Nuffnangers to begin with, nor invited by any of our guests. very muka tak malu lor.
haih okay back to happy pictures. these were either sent to me, tagged via Facebook or shamelessly stolen by me from blogs :P
#27 Kevin and i. ahhh we go way back, to the days of discussing whether or not the media has a negative impact on society :P
#28 the people who made this party possible - the Nuffnang staff (plus Kenny wtf why are you in our picture!!!) after the event. whee! not everyone is in the picture tho.
#29 Kelz and i. all our pictures always turn out so nice wan!
#30 me and sexy Linora (nice new hair babe!) and Shin Chan the kehlehfeh
#31 me and Li Yin who was wearing damn nice pajamas, picture courtesy (meaning stolen from :P) of Hau Yon, one of the youngest bloggers we had at our party!
#33 doing THE POUT with Hui Wen! she is the coolest :D
#34 with fellow BRAT Lisan who apparently didn’t realize we had free drinks and booze the whole night :P
#35 Mustard Queen and i! her headband matches our official Pajama Party design :D
#36 Thomas, who is like, very tall. and he wanted a Tall Blogger Award??!?! hahaha wtf?!

okay no more pictures. if anyone took any photos with me (and i know you are out there!!!) that night, pleasepleaseplease do send me the pictures, ok? or put them up on your blog and i will come steal :P
well, it was really, really awesome organizing the Nuffnang Pajama Party, and i hope you all had a great time :) thank you all for being so cool and dressing up in pajamas, and for all that contagious excitement :) thank you for being such a great bunch of bloggers and party animals, who made this party the success that it was.
over Chinese New Year, Martian kept going around asking all his friends and family, “do you know the secret to a happy life?”
everybody will just layan him and go, “okay what?”
then he will say… “the secret is a good night’s sleep.” and this is the cue for him to start singing praises about the new Tempur pillow he just bought that apparently improves his sleep quality by x100000. and then he will start talking about this new mattress that he also just bought that is super comfortable and extremely nice to sleep on.
aiyahhhh. who needs Tempur and an overpriced mattress (but it’s really damn comfortable lah, i will give him that!) when you have ………
Chipster!
actually to be honest, the one thing i sleep best with is my boyfriend. but when he’s not with me, Chipster is a pretty good replacement! it keeps me safe and warm and loved until i’m back in the arms of the strong and handsome Martian wtf.
better yet, i can stick his picture on the pack of chips and pretend he’s here with me!!!
and THEN EVEN BETTER YET, i can eat them chips!!! boyfriend where can eat.
and that is why i sleep better with Chipster. the end. byebye.
hahahahahhaha this has to be the weirdest post i’ve ever written. i know lah i know lah, it’s not as creative as the other ‘I Sleep Better With Chipster’ posts out there.. but i’m telling you it’s not funny how much time i spent yesterday and today preparing for some ideas that i eventually scrapped because i couldn’t find the necessary props :( like yesterday, i stayed up till 6am trying to think of a good idea for this themed post. but then i thought, why the heck am i losing sleep over a post that is supposed to be about how well i’m sleeping? doesn’t that quite defeat the purpose?! and so i ate a pack of Chipster and went to sleep :P
this post is written for tickets to The Nuffnang Pajama Party, which will surely be a blast because ……. i’m organizing it. hehe. i’m really, really, REALLY excited and i can’t wait to party with all the other bloggers who will be there :) this is going to be the biggest blogger meet Malaysia has ever seen!
if you haven’t written your post to win tickets to the party, HURRY UP AND WRITE IT! (NOTE: the deadline has been extended to the 8th of March!) cmon lah, quirkiest post wins a Nintendo Wii okay!! best pajamas wins an iPod Touch and of course there is that grand prize of a Macbook for the most Chipster packs in one picture.
some of my favorite ‘I Sleep Better With Chipster’ posts:
1. Waffle, who is Nuffnang’s programmer. haha remember the recent Nuffnang crash?!
2. Suanie, hilarious as always!
3. Eyeris, an anonymous blogger who used toy spuds as his post’s protagonist :P
4. Kimberlycun, whose idea was so innovative!
5. David Lian, who is winning the Best Pajamas prize FOR SURE
6. Jolene, ever the good storyteller! check out her 7-11 picture! damn funny
7. Shaolintiger, whose punchline gave me the giggles for the whole day
8. Michelle, cos she thinks she’s Sailor Moon and cos she’s soooo cute
9. Thomas, who cheated and cleverly went to the supermarket to pose with all the Chipster packs! damn smart right!
10. Kenny Sia, just for that picture of him lying on the bed like a beached mermaid… hahaha!
any other funny Chipster posts out there? tell me tell me!
and also tell me what you’re going to be wearing to the party!!! :D *excited* as for me, i already have my outfit picked out. not by choice….. here’s a conversation i had with Martian a while ago:
Me: so Nuffnang is going to have this pajama party, and it’s going to be so much fun, and i’m organizing it, i’m thinking of the games right now, what games would you play at a slumber party? what food would be good? ahhh i’m so excited blablablabla
Martian: what are you wearing?
Me: i’m thinking maybe my blue slip. or the brown one… or maybe the white one..
Martian: CANNOT. SLIPS ARE TOO REVEALING.
Me: then what you want me to wear! jammies ah! i dont have any, remember?
so… guess what i got for Valentine’s Day? :\
me covered head to toe :\
actually i really really like these jammies :) they’re fuzzy and very comfy, and like any gift from Martian, i love them to bits! even if he’s so cunning!!! now i can’t say i don’t have jammies to wear to the party. sigh why is my boyfriend like this.
what i usually wear to bed:
my brown satin slip which is really nice to sleep in. that’s Pooch i’m holding btw!
one of the many shirts i stole from Martian! i used to sleep in these during those cold Hong Kong nights
shorts and a tee for when i’m at home. hahaha this Star Wars tee is practically a legend. my friends used to make fun of me all the time, because everytime they came over, i’d be wearing this same tee :\
okay lah since my usual sleepwear is not allowed by Martian’s standards, and i’m definitely not wearing Anakin Skywalker on my chest to a party because he later grew up to be a real jerk and broke Natalie Portman’s heart… i guess i’m gonna be wearing my new pink jammies :)
lastly, i want to say that organizing this party and - in the midst of planning - having to talk about Chipster ALL THE TIME is making me crave Chipster practically every day. it’s tough. i keep eating and eating and eating. at least at the Pajama Party, the Chipster chips there are gonna be in endless supply and FREE :D
my Valentine’s Day began with such excitement and romance!
i woke up to…………. a phone call by Timothy Tiah who was emoing about the fact that the general election was announced that very morning, and that it’s going to be held on the 8th of March, which is the same date as our Nuffnang Pajama Party. which means we have to postpone the party. sigh, so romantic right. actually, no, i just remembered that emo election conversation was the second time he called me.. the first time he called (and kicked me out of bed) was to ask me to do work. wtf! you can’t evade him sometimes.
i want to tell you another story about Timothy Tiah. i told him the day before Valentine’s what Waffle suggested i give my boyfriend for Vday. such is the conversation -
me: stewie! i hate your programmer!
tim: har why!
me: i asked him what he thinks would be a good Vday gift for my boyfriend… then you know what he said ah? i said that my boyfriend’s idea of a good gift are things like an external hard disk drive.. so Waffle suggested i get him a hard disk preloaded with porn. WTF.
tim: eh.. that’s a damn clever gift!!! that’s really cool! i would love something like that!
me: *insert many protests* blablabla
tim: no no it’s so thoughtful! think about all the effort that went into customizing such a gift… it’s like the male equivalent of a mix CD for girls.
me: what the….
tim: but what did you eventually get your boyfriend?
me: i got him a digital photo frame! it’s soooo cute; it’s like one of those mini LCD screens that displays an automatic slideshow of many many many photos that you upload onto a thumbdrive and plug into the screen. hehe nice leh!
sample photo of a digital photo frame
tim: hmm yaa i’ve heard of those.
*long silence…..*
me: …. YOU DON’T LIKE MY GIFT????????
tim: er… it’s just that if i got one of those things, i wouldn’t really use it….
me: WHY
tim: er.. cos it wastes electricity
sigh such is timothy tiah. no i dont know why he is like that. ANYWAY i turned the digital photo frame on when Martian was sleeping and he was very surprised when he woke up and saw it on the morning of Valentines. and he loved it :D just like he loves the scrapbook i made him for our anniversary. we spent the morning looking at the 300+ images i’d uploaded onto the screen and naming all the places and events and memories linked to those pictures :)
yknow, i’m so glad my boyfriend likes sentimental gifts. otherwise i would have been knocking on all my guy friends’ doors on Valentines Day, begging them for their porn stash so i can upload it into an external HDD to give to my boyfriend. -____-
so after lunch, Martian told me he wanted to go and get his IC done because he recently lost his wallet and all the stuff in it. i was like… ‘what! you want to go and get your IC done on Valentines Day??’ so while he went, i was at Starbucks being emo on MSN about how my boyfriend ditched me on Valentines. and all my girlfriends were like ‘aiyo why your boyfriend so bad!’ yalar damn bad right.
but then he later came to pick me from Starbucks with …
my gift :(
and flowers :(
and this box of really really nice tarts that i forgot to take a photo of and ate already.
and this damn funny Bahasa Melayu card HAHA. with a really romantic message in it.
so actually he didn’t go get his IC done, but he just needed some excuse that i couldn’t say no to. ishes. now i feel so bad that i was gossiping about him with my girlfriends :( hehe but i LOVE my presents to absolute bits! the card is so funny and obviously i love the tarts (why does my boyfriend know me so well), and as always i am very excited about flowers .. but my main present, the one wrapped in pink, is just perfect. haha but i cant say what it is yet. cos quite coincidentally, i actually need it for an upcoming blog post. so i will blog about it later ;) give you 10 sen if you can guess.
hmm eh then what happened. oh thank you Wenqi for the candle, heehee. if you know what i mean wtf.
at night, we went for dinner at Nero Vivo, which is one of our favourite restaurants in KL. i made reservations like a month ago - i am so shocked that on VALENTINES DAY itself, my blog was STILL getting hits from people googling Valentine’s Day restaurants. and the hits from the 14th logged the highest number of search engine referrals in February! why are all these people so last minute!! i do hope they all managed to find themselves a nice restaurant for Vday :\
sleepy us
it was so nice having Martian back in KL for almost 2 weeks. no, we didn’t go eat chili pan mee or red velvet cake like we were supposed to do, nor did we drive down to Melaka and Seremban as planned, and we also didn’t have that quick weekend getaway to Tiger Rock… but we did a lot of other stuff :) stuff like mice-drawing competitions.. hahaha. and Nasi Lemak Famous at Bangsar which gave us bad stomachaches. dessert with Martian’s very delightful Uncle Chris who has a billion stories to tell. going to the pet shop to play with puppies! and sleeping in till 12pm on most days. hehe.
soooooo i had a lovely Valentines day :) we night-capped it with tau foo far and the best ever double boiled soup in Lucky Garden, heehee. what did you all do for yours?
happy belated Valentine’s Day, everyone :)
p/s: eh …to all guys reading this, seriously lah… if you were my boyfriend, you would prefer my gift over a bunch of porn in an HDD, right? … right?
p/p/s: it’s Tuesday morning. should i head to Singapore this afternoon and surprise Martian? just for fun. and so we can watch Juno, because it’s not showing here in KL and he’s not allowed to watch it without me. and also because he’s bought the new season of Little Britain on DVD! if i go, i’d have to come back home on Thursday though. aiyah how ah! it’s like such a short time only and i’ve really got so much i need to settle back here in KL. decisions, decisions. i think i shall flip a coin.
after reading all the very encouraging comments, i decided to go ahead and audition for Malaysian Dreamgirl.
and … I MADE IT!!!!
yes, i made it past the first round of the Malaysian Dreamgirl auditions :D haha who would have thought?! i’m now in the Top 50, and next week there will be another round of auditions to determine the 12 finalists that will star in the Malaysian Dreamgirl online reality show :)
pinkpau @ Malaysian Dreamgirl!
hahahaha no lah bluff you all only. i didn’t audition!
and i couldn’t even if i wanted to, because i’ve been hired to be one of their two official bloggers throughout the show :) Shaolin Tiger is the other blogger, and the both of us will be following the shoot closely for the next 11 weeks to bring you a closer and more in-depth view of each episode. and of course, bringing you the dishy stuff and what goes on behind-the-scenes ;)
so i sat through a whole day of auditions today, and i got to see all the girls strut their stuff in front of the judging panel. it was very interesting to watch, and i must say that in the first hour or so i was extremely taken aback by how harsh the judges were. Elaine Daly and our homeboy Kenny Sia were almost relentless in their comments and type of questions. i’ve never met Lim Jimmy or seen him in interviews, and i was expecting a real catty man who would be harsh and almost bitchy, but he wasn’t!! he was actually damn nice throughout all the auditions. i spoke to him briefly during lunch, and he was extremely sweet and pleasant. haha but apparently for tomorrow’s auditions he wants to be meaner.
so the auditions system works like American Idol where as long as 2 out of 3 judges say Yes, the girl goes through. of all the auditions today, only about 20 girls made it through to the next round. tomorrow they will probably select another 30, and that makes up the Top 50, from which the 12 finalists will be chosen.
and because i watched all the auditions, i can tell all aspiring Malaysian Dreamgirls what to expect if you’re going to audition tomorrow hehehe.
1. Be confident and outspoken
i said this in my previous post before i watched the auditions, and now that i’ve watched it, i must say it is THE make-or-break factor in your audition. ALL the quiet and shy girls with no confidence didn’t make it through the auditions, simply because they were boring. almost all the girls who came in with spunk and attitude got through to the next round because they excited and inspired the judges.
2. Don’t be afraid to show some attitude
because attitude is what they’re looking for. when asked ‘do you think you’re pretty?’, forget the ‘er… no lah not really pretty lah but i’m quite okay lah..’ answer and just say YES i think i’m pretty. most of the 20 girls picked today answered such when they were asked that question. not a single girl sounded cocky when she said yes, she thinks she’s pretty.
one girl came in with sunglasses on her head and a very confident personality. Elaine was saying how she doesn’t think this girl is what they’re looking for, but she just interjected and gave the reasons why she thinks she can be the Malaysian Dreamgirl. hahaha that was awesome. we were all rooting for her in the media room, and the producer said he likes her ‘dont give two fucks about what you think’ attitude. hahaha. she made it through. her name is Dani, and this is her picture below:
3. If you have a flaw, tell them how you can compensate
there was girl who was extremely pretty with a good command of English, whom i thought was DEFINITELY going to advance to the next round. but during her audition, she was told by Elaine and Jimmy that she’s too short to be a model. Kenny, who thinks she’s pretty, fought for her … but the whole time, the girl just kept quiet while the panel argued it out. i think that if she had just said SOMETHING to prove how she can compensate for her height, she would have gotten a yes from Jimmy. she could have said how even the HOST of Malaysian Dreamgirl, Sazzy Falak, is 5′1 and yet she’s so successful. but no, she kept quiet and so she lost her chance.
then there was this other girl who is a little bit on the fleshy side. Kenny asked her if she could take it if the online world calls her fat, and so the audition suddenly became all about how she was fat (she really wasn’t fat, just fleshy). she told them she would diet, that she has the determination to work on her body, that she thinks she’s not fat but curvy, that she has the looks to make up for the fact she’s not rail-thin.. and she got in through the next round :)
oh and one girl came in with braces. i think she was quite self-conscious about it, but she was praised by the judges for taking the initiative to correct her teeth. so dont hide your flaws if you have any - be aware of them and tell them that you know how you can improve on them.
4. Come equipped with some fashion knowledge
seriously, if ONE MORE girl answers Tyra Banks as their favourite model, imma scream. please lah there are a lot of better models out there than Tyra Banks!! giving that answer just shows how little you know about the fashion industry despite saying ‘i’ve been wanting to be a model since i was twelve!’ (and almost every girl said this), and merely shows that you watch a lot of America’s Next Top Model. some were also asked who their favourite designers were. only one girl could give an answer.
5. Come dressed well
i really underestimated this part of the auditions. one girl was sent out within 20 seconds because she came in track bottoms and couldnt really answer why she chose to wear that. every girl is asked about their outfit, where it’s from and why they chose to wear it. many girls got very harsh critique about their choice of apparel, and on that note, most were sent out. those who clearly put some thought into their clothes won favour with the judges. don’t forget one is a fashion stylist and one is a seasoned model!
you dont have to be wearing designer clothes or anything, and of course if you have your own style, SAY IT. even our lovely Cheesie, who came dressed in her usual quirky style, was not spared from harsh fashion comments by the judges. she dealt with that by coolly saying that this is the way she dresses as she prefers cutesy bargain clothes over designer labels. she got through to the next round :)
that’s about it. questions asked were things like - tell us about yourself, why do you think you’re the Malaysian Dreamgirl, tell us about your outfit, what is your favourite part of your body, who is your favourite model, why do you want to be a model. then they follow up with more questions based on your previous answers, and they ask you to do a catwalk and they ask you to come closer so they can look at your complexion. critique can be harsh, but my advice is to take it in stride and dont let them scare you. they’re doing it on purpose to suss you out :)
some of my favourite girls of the day besides Cheesie and Dani:
Cindy, a friend of mine who wowed the judges with her looks and bubbly personality
this girl was subjected to a really thorough line of questioning by Elaine Daly, but she was very brave and articulate in her answers. she deserved to pass the audition!
this is Suet Li wtf. no lah her name is Yvonne, but she looks like Suet Li right??? she was so cute and she spoke really well, no surprise that she would pass the audition.
Chin Yee, who is actually a kindergarten teacher. in my opinion the prettiest of the lot and definitely best dressed. a little bit shy though. Stewie and i thought she would have attitude, but we were wrong!
Alison, my favourite of the day. tall, fun, SMART, spoke very well, friendly, a natural in front of the camera. it was a unanimous yes from all three judges. she’s finalist material; the only one from today whom i think is a clear shoo-in for the Final 12
okay lah no more :) to all auditioning, best of luck!!! MWAH - good luck kiss from the pinkpau!
Malaysian Dreamgirl Auditions
Dates : 16 & 17 Feb 2008
Time: 10am - 5pm
Venue: Selangor Room, PWTC Kuala Lumpur
over the weekend, i attended a fantastic event called Youth ‘08 - We Are The Trendsetters, organized by Youth Malaysia. it was held at the Putra World Trade Center, and basically it was a hugeeeee fair of every single youth hobby/activity you can think of under one roof. street dancing, singing, graffiti, graphic design, movies, basketball, futsal, blogging, gaming, fashion….. EVERYTHING was there and it was all executed to flawlessness.
the event was damn nice lah :( i was so jealous as i was weaving in and out of the crowd checking out all the booths and activities; it is my dream to organize an event as big and successful as this! all the other events i’ve organized previously seem so small and insignificant compared to Youth ‘08. le sigh! time to get off your lazy butt and do something big, lim su ann!
and i will get the chance to :) there are two events coming up in the next 6 months that i will be organizing. am very excited!!!! my party-throwing engine is just raring to go.
i was at Youth ‘08 for two reasons: the Youth Entrepreneur Convention - which is a convention featuring some 10 to 15 young entrepreneurs who have made it big in their respective fields despite their young age - and also the Traffic Jam Blogger’s Party - a big bloggers meet of sorts.
3 friends were speaking at the entrepreneur’s convention - Stewie, Khailee and Kenny, so i really wanted to be there early for all their sessions. BUT NO, of course i had to be SUPER LATE… and so i missed Stewie’s and Khailee’s talks :( stupid wan lah i dont know why i cannot ever be on time for anything!!! i missed about 6 hours of the convention, and only just made it in time for Kenny’s talk. his speech’s title was: The Unpopular Boy Behind The Popular Blog, and it was about how far he’s come from an unpopular boy back in school to the colossal blogger whom everyone knows today. (Kenny your speech so inspiring *___* but tell me, how important is likeability as a blogger!!! hehehehhee. you know what was the other question i wanted to ask you ah! i wanted to ask you what political party you support wtf. see what you say then wtf.)
after that was the Traffic Jam Blogger’s Party; it was co-organized by Nuffnang so all Nuffnang bloggers were invited. it was great lah seeing so many bloggers together :) it was good catching up with everyone, and i also met a lot of new people whom i never knew read my blog. i bumped into this girl in the bathroom who blurted out - “you haven’t been updating lately!”. haha that was so funny.

being amongst so many people who love blogging made me think a lot when i got back home that day. i’ve got so many thoughts on blogging that i would love to share and discuss. but that shall be left for another day because it’s like 7 in the morning and i really should be getting some sleep. le sigh! and my name is still Colbie.
