too good to ignore, and I succumbed...

DIGI's current iPhone 4 promotion for existing iPhone 3Gs package subscribers is a steal, ... and I ended up getting one... as a Christmas gift for myself... ... =____=||

assorted food snaps VI

the Char Siew (叉烧) from Fang Yuan (芳圆茶室) is the ultimate fatty pork goodness...

was at this new restaurant in town - Delizze... ordered this, but forgotten the name of it...

one was filled with shrimp while the other was cheese... just nice for a light meal...

mix platter of chicken, char siew & BBQ pork...

the overhyped McDonald's GCB, tasted pretty good, but I'm never gonna pay close to RM10 for such a puny burger... totally not worth it... a RM5 roadside Ramli burger special is a way better deal... =)

now these are good stuff, especially the one on the left ---> bacon-flavoured crackers... *yums*... =p

note: bacon-flavoured means non-Halal ok... hehehe...

changing address made simpler

Address is not just the exact place of where we live, work, or do business, but it is how people look for us. As we grow older and move out from our parents' place, going into college, university and later on joining the workforce or opening up businesses, we are most likely to change our addresses along the way.

Then, problems would occur when government agencies, potential employees, universities, banks, tax office and other parties try to locate us, but fail because we have just moved to another location, maybe a bigger apartment, or change of work place, and due to being too busy or absent-minded, we did not update our addresses with all of them.

The change of address actually can be done with ease via Change of Address.org. Plus, the service provided is free from all pop-up ads and continuous marketing. All users need to do is to complete a Form 3575-USPS Change of Address Form. The site offers free change of address service for people that are moving into a new home or workplace anywhere in the U.S. only, including those agencies that require notification of an address change such as the IRS, Social Security Administration and the State Department of Motor Vehicles are also provided. A checklist for change of address will also be provided to ensure we do not forget to notify everyone.

Emperor Club's Anniversary...+ Car Show & Model Search...

I was invited to attend Emperor Club's Anniversary about two months ago. Apart from the anniversary party, a steamboat dinner, a car show and a model search were also included in program... and it was a blast...

fleet of sports cars, ranging from Imprezas, Supras, 350Zs, MR-Ss, Evos to GT-Rs...

almost night time... partayy time... =)

I typically love this shot... notice the crescent moon with a star above it in the middle??

votes given by everyone at the party...

when there are models, photographers with big ass DSLRs are always within shooting distance... including yours truly that night... hehehe... =P

hiatus...

two things to blame...

1) my iPhone - it's too much fun till it's eating into my blogging time...

2) Facebook - notifications that kept on beeping/showing up drew my attention away from my PC... =____='''''

will try to resume blogging asap... so much happenings over the past months...

it was a crazy April...

April this year has been quite a happening month... not only I got to know more close friends in the car modification industry... I spent a tonne on self satisfactory, shiok sendiri stuff...

am so broke now... =___=''''''

despite not being a high performance car... seeing your own ride on a dyno machine definitely boosts one's ego, feels pretty awesome...

plus, the dyno session was actually used to test out some electronic stabilizer gadgets, which apparently worked because the dyno chart showed that my car's horsepower-on-wheel did increase by at least 10% compared to stock standard Vios... =)

kena poisoned by a few VECS braders, and ended up purchasing a pair of SSCUS bucket seats each... =.="""

and having a group of close friends all using the irresistible iPhone resulted in me getting the iPhone 3GS recentlly offered by DIGI as well... but frankly speaking, I've got totally no regrets getting this gadget lor... XD
