Launching Blogs

Leave a comment

I spent the better part of the night launching my new blogs. I have a new post for each blog after upgrading my WordPress, installing and activating my plug-ins and they were good to go for the time being.

Of course, I would still have to get WordPress themes for them and looking for the perfect one really takes up a lot of time, what with my fussiness!

but searching the internet for four templates at the same time is better than searching for templates one by one. At least now, searching to dress u four WordPress blogs is way better than searching for them one by one, right?

Come to think of it, I still have a website template to look for!

Nymphomercial For A Monk Jumped Over a Wall

Leave a comment

Although I have been a YouTube member for a long time, it was only recently that I started to share my videos online. I am amazed that there are so many users who send a better part of their day just watching videos on YouTube!

That’s why I think that the author who created the Nymphomercial – A Monk Jumped Over a Wall with his friends are brilliant in capitalizing the popularity of the site to market his new novel. I was told that this nymphomercial has almost gone viral in college campuses. I believe that before long, this will be posted in a lot of blogs too.

The author of A Monk Jumped Over a Wall, Jay Nussbaum, really has an interesting profile and I am surprised that he came to Malaysia before. I think that I will also be trying to get a copy of A Monk Jumped Over a Wall although I am by no means influenced by the nymphomercial. Nope, I swear, I am not!

Streamyx Totally Dead In Ipoh

3 Comments

I don’t know about other places but a few of my friends in Ipoh have told me that their Steamyx connection is totally dead too. I know mine is since just before noon. And for those who still have Streamyx, some of them tell me that their line is crawling. Didn’t I say that I may show that I am connected on the activity log on their side but I totally am not able to get any thing connected at all. Not messengers, not browser.

The guy kept telling me to connect to the website of TM Net. Aiyo… still cannot la. This is not as if I cannot connect to international sites, OK? Whether it is Yahoo! Or TM, I can’t even f@rking get any connection at all.

I was already very frustrated because I could not work, I could not sleep and to have to answer their questions on what I did not do that caused my line to be unable to log in totally adds fuel to the fire.

Free Images For Blogs

Leave a comment

I have been invited to try out a free service that allows members to use high quality photos on our blogs for free. These photos are the kind that you see in magazines and do not have any legal entanglements.

However, they do have advertisement ON the photo itself. I have viewed them on the blogs of the founders and I find that they add great colour to our blog postings without fear that the copyright holder will come after us LOL

Although these photos do have advertisements, I don’t find them intrusive at all. Since I have been invited, I have signed up and may use some of these photos on my blogs. I haven’t finished browsing through their collection of images, so I will only pick my images later.

However, don’t get me wrong. Even though these images have advertisements ON them, we, the publishers do not get payment or compensation of any kind to display these ads because we are already using these high quality images for free.

I Am So Longing For A Spanish Break

Leave a comment

When I was in school, I used to have so many pen-pals and most of them were from European countries. Many of them will travel to Spain during their Summer holidays. Why Spain, you may ask? According to these friends, Spain has one of the best night life scenes in all of Europe!

When my workload gets too heavy, I just wish that I could escape and get a much needed break in Spain. HHhhmm I can imagine myself dancing the night away in a popular night spot in Spain where nobody knows me.

I am still keeping plenty of holiday photos these pen-friends sent me, including shots taken at nude beaches LOL And there are shots of the hotels where they stay and shots of hotels where they wished they could afford to stay, like the very famous La Ramblas Hoteles.

I wish that I could plan my vacation right now but I don’t even know when I will be able to get time off work. All my holidays were made at the last minute and this is why CheaperThanHotels is a blessing to people like me thanks to their last minute hotel deals. So if you are planning to make reservations at one of the beautiful Ramblas Hotels or one of the enchanting Madrid Hoteles, then you know where to go, right?

By the way, the image that I am including in this post is a shot of one of the Barcelona Hoteles that I found on the web. Don’t you think that it creates a very romantic ambience? I could just imagine myself staying there for months on end. Sigh… if only life is so carefree!

Billed In Error

Leave a comment

Wahhhh… last week, my old domain name registrar sent me an invoice. I wrote back and said asked them why are they billing me when I already transferred my domain name to another registrar and that I have already renewed my domain name up until 2014?

After a couple of hours, they wrote back and told me, “Your invoice has been cancelled at your request.”

What the hell… AT MY REQUEST?? They billed me wrongly and didn’t even have the sense to apologise and admit that it was their error. On the other hand, they said that it was my request to have it cancelled. Nope, I did not REQUEST anything because they themselves were at fault.

Cheh… what kind of records are they keeping? Back from 2006??
