XIAXUE'S GUIDE TO LIFE

I don't think I am very good at it...

Phlook! It's a new blog post finally!!

Advertorial

I've been having so much fun with CNY!! I already won $500 in Texas Hold 'em and another $150 in Blackjack!! Woohoo!!

Which explains why I haven't been blogging - and I still won't be blogging if not for...




Phlook!!

Phlook is a new website set up by Singaporeans - and it's photosharing innovated so that your photosharing experience can now be way more interactive RIGHT ON YOUR OWN BLOG!

Anyway, I've decided to give them a try and use their services for this blog post!

Their advantages are simple:

- Phlooks gives me 100mb a month to upload photos!! Photos are limited at a generous 2600 X 2600 pixels, so don't hestiate to post up those SLR shots! Isn't it annoying when photo-uploading websites always resize your photos smaller for you? Not gonna happen!

- Photos posted on Phlook are easily embedded on my blog or any other website I want with 1 click of a button!

- Photos are interactive! I can add NOTES to the photos - kinda like Facebook's tagging option!

- I can track your photos' viewership, zoom the photo, and email them easily!


So here are some of the USA trip photos!

Now, instead of pointing out little things I noticed in the pics, I can just leave a note on them!

Click on "Pic has XXX notes" to read the notes I wrote!

And best of all, you guys can also leave notes on my pictures! Go ahead and scandalise them if you must. :D



That's me in a pet shop holding a Ferret and looking terrified for a good reason - the ferret bit me really hard!



But it is cute and wiggly... The salesgirl said they have no backbones so they are really soft!



Obligatory touristy photo with a cold Texan horse.



Ordered "Vegetable curry" at PF Chang's (a supposedly Chinese restaurant) and this is what they gave it! It's not wet at all, it's stir-fried and it's horrible! Got peanuts inside somemore!

Luckily the waiter saw that I didn't eat any and didn't charge me money for it! He is super nice!




Stir-fried spinach in yucky sauce



Us there. Mike's wearing a beanie because he is actually cold - not to act douchey.



The fortune cookie teaches Chinese and I forced Mike to write it! His 'Pu Tao' is so squarish and funny! Top one is my writing.



It's magic!! How did the cookie know?!



Mike insists that the 'kou' in 'shang' has a TAIL.



My name - one is written by a real Chinese, can you tell which?







Shopping! Write a note and tell me which item you like!




Mike and his friend Jeff



I bought like a million OPIs! It doesn't look like a lot, but check this out!



Really got all colours of the rainbow here man...



A real dandelion!!!!!!!!!!





Half botak liao...





:D



Mike's mom's kitty cat


Korea's Incheon Airport:



Crazy burger is stacked so high, it looks like the Bishi Bashi challenge! Where got people got such a big mouth can bite through such a thick burger?!



Our six-hour transit was made very pleasant as we got a massage on that funny chair...



AND comfy lounging...

AND best of all....



A place for us to shower for 6 USD! God bless the Koreans for that!!

They give you the little basket with soap and your towel + toothbrush + razor. The towel is super unabsorbant, but everything else was great!




Really clean...



I do love it!!

Don't like to have too many photos clogging up your site? You can also choose to have a slideshow option with Phlook!

My photos in a simple slideshow:





Oh btw... One new option that Phlook came up with is for photographers to EASILY sell their pictures!

It's simple: Give Phlook your paypal email address, and the money gets to you when your picture sells!! Now isn't that just great?


Love Phlook? Wear your Phlook badge proudly!! Here's mine:

V DAY SPECIAL!!!

I'm not sure how serious Phlook is, but apparently they have a Valentine's Day contest and the winner gets to, erm, win a return trip to Venus!

OK I asked and they are apparently serious. This is what you have to do to win it:

1. Come to Phlook Habitat (32 Wallich Street #02-60 Singapore 078880) on 14th Feb 2009, 10am - 6pm, and give them a kiss. (They promise to kiss you back.)
2. Take a photo of said kiss.
3. Upload the photo to Phlook and embed it back to your blog.
4. Leave a comment in Phlook's blog with your kissed-Phlook blog post’s url.


Click



I might send Mike down to do it. I hope Venus is more pleasant than Mars, which I heard is flaming hot and has only a wee bit of water (I anyhow say one).


Go try out their services already!! Click.

Oh no...

Is it just me or is Singapore suddenly filled with a fuckload of fucking MOSQUITOES?!

Everywhere I go suddenly I'm getting bitten - and the situation is getting way out of hand even at home!

There's been one living in my room (I cannot stand the master bedroom having insects!!) for the past 3 days and it has been nipping at Mike's feet when he sleeps and biting me everywhere it pleases!

I swear I've got at least 20 itchy spots, and worst of all, this newest batch of mosquitoes give really small bites - seemingly just to piss us off! Each bite is barely the size of a moderate zit!

Today, just after I turned off the room light and started using the comp, I saw a humongous mozzie zipping pass my monitor in a happy flutter.

That bugger had the audacity to fly pass my FACE!

I slapped it but missed, so I went outside to fetch the electric bug zapper and maniacally swiped the entire room before giving it a rest, panting and swearing to get it just when it thinks it is safe.

Muttering under my voice, I complained to Mike (who is in bed and keeping his toes safely tucked under the covers... He confirm will kena on the face):

"WHY MUST IT COME INTO THE ROOM?! Grrrrrr."

Mike replied that that's where all the blood is.

"Outside also got blood what..." I was referring to Pumpkin, who was sleeping in the living room.

Later on, I went into the living room to get something, and I decided to check on Pumpkin to see if I need to clean her pee/poo.

(On a side note, she is now officially toilet-trained!!!!!!!!!!!! I am majorly proud of myself! I wait outside her cage like a loser till she pees then I give her treats and now she knows if she pees inside she will gets treats! I am so awesome!!)

Pumps walked out of her plouffy bed to wag her tail at me, and I noticed a little black speck on her pink cushion.

On closer inspection, a MOSQUITO.

That's right, a Mozzie was SLEEPING WITH MY PET.

Can you imagine how shiok this mozzie's life is? Tired, sleep on soft pink cushion. Hungry, just hop onto Pumpkin and suck.

"Sheeeeshhhhhhh..." I said to Pumpkin. I carried her out of her fenced area and grabbed the zapper from the room.

Said mozzie still sleeping in same spot, unaware of impending deadly zapper!

Slowly... Slowly... BAM! Squeak toy also gets hit and emits loud noise.














I missed.
W#$^%#@*%)^)*%$#%$!!!!!!!!!!

AND THEN.

I NOTICED THAT THERE WAS ANOTHER MOZZIE SLEEPING JUST NEXT TO HER BED!


I zapped but this one flew away.


THAT'S RIGHT!

THAT'S TWO MOSQUITOES SLEEPING NEXT TO MY DOG!!!!!!!!



I frantically swatted everywhere again and didn't catch them.

Later on, this stupid mozzie flew back to the same spot! This time I got it good and fried her with delightful crackling noises and blue sparks!!

Also, at the same time I realised that the first mozzie's corpse is actually on the cushion. -_-



HURRAY I ACTUALLY KILLED BOTH MOZZIES!!



Behold, their tragically mutilated bodies:


So much blood...


Poor Pumpkin. All this time I kept thinking, "Why is that stupid dog scratching again? I just cleaned her ears, she can't be THAT itchy..."


Little did I know...

Well Mozzies? That's the blood of my baby (babies if you include Mike) you are sucking! Don't mess with me, I will confirm kill you in the most gruesome and undignified way possible**!


Will mosquito coil fumes affect dogs? Maybe I could get that. Stupid Condo's maintanence ought to look into this. I think one of my neighbours must have left still water somewhere. It's not me! I checked!



**Electrify, then squeezed with tissue and then flushed down toilet after first peeing into the toilet bowl.


UPDATE 5 MINS LATER: I just went outside to check and there was another mozzie next to Pumpkin! OMG! Is she a mozzie-attracting puppy or what!!! I already closed all windows, how many mozzies can one house hold?! I'm go check on PK in 10 mins again so I can kill all of them.

New vids!!

Sorry for not blogging for so long! I've been really busy writing advertorials :(

Anyway, here are new videos - do go check them out if you are bored!!

XIAXUE'S GUIDE TO LIFE



I try out Yoga with less than optimal results.


CHICK VS DICK




Truth or Dare part II!!

And Kaykay doesn't love me anymore she super long never meet me liao!!


OK, I must be the suayest person in the world when it comes to computers. My PC keeps having this same problem: After reinstalling it, everything will be fine for about 2 weeks.

Then, it will slowly begin to hang more and more often, until it is completely fucked and won't turn on.

Anybody has any idea what is the problem with the crazy fucker??! Why does it keep doing that??!

It can't be my installed programs because it takes 2 weeks to go crazy! It's not my hard drive coz I already changed one (still same problem with the new one), and I don't think it's my ram either. WTF?????

It has to be a hardware problem, right?!
