CNY trip back to grandma's place

like every second day of CNY, the whole family would go back to Lundu to visit my grandma. it's about 1.5 hour's drive from Kuching. reached Lundu at around 10.30am in the morning, and from that time until we left at around 3pm, all we did was eat, chat and drink...

paid respect to our great grandparents and my grandpa...

the theme for that day was chicken... 5 plates of different chicken, 1 duck, 1 beef and 1 lamb. later lunch time, three plates of prawn were served, together with soup and satay... (too much to eat until I forgot to take pictures.... heh)

PayPerPost's new reward program

After several attempts, my blog was finally approved by PayPerPost recently, so this would be my very first sponsored entry.

PayPerPost has just announced its new Review My Post program. Apart from getting paid for writing sponsored posts, bloggers could also earn extra bucks by getting their readers to sign-up for PayPerPost and then review the posts blogged. Not only we bloggers could get more income, this program would help increase blog traffic as well.

Bloggers can now simply add this badge -

at the end of any of their posts and easily earn money and build traffic with no additional effort.

Everyone could use that extra bucks to buy that special something, or extra item after deducting a large portion of our pay for the bills, expenses and other commitments. Like me, I wouldn't mind receiving a couple of hundreds extra just to upgrade my car, or get that new gadget that I've always wanted. Thus, considering the fact that I spend quite a lot of time in the office using the Internet and that I blog frequently, why not make some money from the effort put in, and with PayPerPost providing monetary reward on sponsored posts as well as paying bloggers for referrals and this Review My Post program, I'll be seeing myself earning some money doing the things that I love to do - BLOG.

So people... why wait?? Sign-up PayPerPost now, and start earning some money while blogging!

Ciggie Review - Lesser Panda (小熊猫)

another close friend of mine also went to Beijing during the CNY holidays. as usual, she got me not one, but three different packs of China made ciggie. many many thanks =).

finished the first one 2 days ago. it's called 小熊猫 (Lesser Panda in English). the Tar, Nicotine and CO13 content is double that of West Light. the smell and taste is abit weird... maybe it's catered more for the chinese's taste buds, but overall it's pretty okay.

Ciggie review - West Lights

Hedo went to Beijing for the CNY holiday, and brought back a carton of West Lights for me =).

nice packaging sommore...

West is a product from Germany, and for those F1 fans out there, you should remember that West was the official sponsor for McLaren Mercedes until 2005. I've tried West (the normal ones) before, so West Lights is pretty much like our Dunhill Lights, albeit dryer to the throat... not bad actually...

got my car tyres changed...

after 2 years+ of abuse, my car tyres are fast becoming those F1 slick rubbers and seriously losing grip during rainy days, so before CNY, got them changed to Michelin MFX sport rubbers at a freakin' good bargain...

Michelin MXF Sport tyre... those treads are so sexy...

waiting for them to put back the rim+tyre

now it's time for the rear ones...

done and ready to go... yeah babeh!!

Project (part 4)

took out my Pioneer Carrozzeria FH-P55MD double din, and got the FH-P99MDR installed. gawd it looks way better and sexier than the 55 model. hedo said it's so hot she could stare at it the whole time I'm driving, and the gay fartmachine wants to break into my car and steals it... heh...
