When I first heard the word of ShopWiki, the first thing that came into my mind was Wikipedia. So what does “wiki” means?

Wiki is a page or collection of Web pages designed to enable anyone who accesses it to contribute or modify content, using a simplified markup language.

ShopWiki is a revolutionized online shop. Somewhat similar to Wikipedia. Anyone can edit, update or create new content on any wiki.

At ShopWiki, you will also be able to find all the available products on the Internet and information on shopping guide as well as where to find the best deal around! You must be wondering, how does ShopWiki work anyway? ShopWiki has a Web-crawling technology like Google crawl, combining with an ultimate shopping search engine with wiki shopping guides. For those who owns an online boutique or shop, this is something you got to CHECK OUT! Because you would definitely want to be listed in their search results. The more search you have, the more buyers you will get, and the more income you will earn. Ahhhh… I can see dollor $$$ signs in your eyes already. And the best part is, ShopWiki DO NOT CHARGE you for shop placement. Not bad, righ?

Back in my college years, when I was looking for laptop, there wasn’t any useful guides on buying a laptop computer around. And your friends would most probably tell you to get the highest end laptop because you can never go wrong with that but not all the features are fully ultilised if you’re just using for normal work. Yes, I know being an IT student, I should at least know what to look for when getting a laptop computer. Well, I guess I’m not those people. In fact, I’m noob when it comes to hardware. LOL! Anyway, ShopWiki’s shopping guide provides you lots of useful information from their recommended top pick, guide on how to get the best, types, pros and cons, and even features to consider! That’s right! That’s more than enough information to ask for.

Oh yeah, Valentine’s is around the corner. Maybe you should check out their Seasonal Guide on Valentine’s Day. For all the men out there who have yet to do shop for your ladies or perhaps this may be your first Valentine’s Day and you haven’t got a single clue on gifts, you would definitely want to check out some Valentine’s Day Gifts for Women over at ShopWiki.

Happy Shopping!

I went to Singapore in December 2008, along with my mum, aunt and cousin. While we were at Singapore, we dropped by Uncle Richard’s place. His wife, Aunty Yan loves cats. And I love cats too. I used to keep cats many years ago. Cats are easy to take care but the only problem you will have is furniture getting damaged when they scratch around with their claws.

This is Susu. She’s a princess! Just so unfortunate that she was born deaf, but she’s really beautiful. And I adore her.

This is Uncle Richard’s daughter’s pet. I forgotten what his name.

And this is stray cat and decided to stay as their pet.

During her free time, Aunty Yan loves to paint. This one of the piece which I like the most. Lovely!

Two (2) weeks ago, I joined some bloggers for a paintball tournament at Astaka Sports Center, Petaling Jaya. Advertlets is the official Online Partner for the most prominent paintball league in Malaysia, the Malaysian National Paintball League (MY-NPL) in year 2009!

Since the event was organised by Advertlets, registration fee was ONLY Rm10 for bloggers which inclusive of paintball marker rental fully equipped and paintball pellet. Cheap, isn’t it? So I thought, why not just give it a try since it will only cost me RM10 instead of RM90 and I’ve always wanting to try out paintball.

Those are called goggles.

This is how the battle field looks like. Each of the those thingy have their own unique names, like “snake”, “temple” and the rest I can’t really recall.

Those are called the paintball marker and the socks covering the barrel are called barrel socks. Like, duh!

The Malaysian Paintball Academy (MAPAAC).

Before the game begin, Mr. Wong, the instructor gave a briefing on the safety, rules and regulation of the game as well as how use the paintball marker.

Most of the bloggers that came for the event were first timer including me. Of course, there are those who are experience players who join the Malaysian National Paintball League (MY-NPL).

The attire recommended were long sleeves  and pants, so I wore my orange Nickelodeon’s t-shirt which was the only long sleeves t-shirt that I have. And apparently that there should not be any orange on the player shirt. Luckily they wasn’t strict with the rules.

This is a picture of us on the battle field. Can you spot me in orange?

This is our team - Yakuza. Left to right - L-R: Uncle Z (En. Zahari), EVo, myself, Marcus and Aizuddin

Left to right: Ashley Teng (camera lady of the day), EVo, Uncle Z (En. Zahari), Marcus, myself, Aizuddin, and Josh Lim.

Most of the player in our team have either no or minimal experience in playing paintball and it quite amazing that we managed to win 1st runner up for the overall game. As being said here, the top 3 winning teams will be sponsored for their registration fees for the 5 rounds of MY-NPL 2009 and stand a chance to win attractive prizes in the MY-NPL! So our team was qualified to play for MY-NPL. But last minutes I decided to pull out due to other commitments.

I did enjoyed paintball, it was fun shooting people. But it obviously wasn’t fun being shot by others. At the end of the game, I can home having several bruises and one severe injury on my knuckle. I got shot on the knuckle just before the last game and it hurt so bad till my right hand were shaking in pain. Luckily Marcus lend me his pair of gloves for the last game else I might not be able to survive.

Well, they don’t call it paintball for nothing, right?

Once again, Time Out KL is proud to present to you KL’s very best and only stand-up comedy night. On every first Thursday on the each month, there will be performances by our very own local stand-up comedians, at Little Havana, from 9pm onwards.

Admission is only RM10 if you bring along the ticket. For more info on how to obtain the ticket, click here.

Little Havana is located at:-
No. 2 & 4, Lorong Sahabat,
Off Changkat Bukit Bintang,
50200 Kuala Lumpur.

Last month, the Comedy Night was exceptionally held on the 8th of January because 1st of January was the New Year and most people may be away from KL.

This time round, more seats were places in the hall due to the large crowd of audience turned at the previous Comedy Thursday event. LCD projectors were also used on both upstairs and downstairs.

At Little Havana, the place is divided into three (3) separate areas - The Courtyard, The Divan, and the Red Room. The Red Room, which is upstairs, is where they used to hold the Comedy Night event.Aside from that, on certain days, a variety of dancing classes such as - Latin, Salsa and Tango, were conducted for those who are interested.

At the Courtyard, people can hang out with their friends and enjoy Happy Hour or even have dinner after a long day at work. And if you do need a little more privacy, the Cigar Divan is a place to be, as it features a large selections of fine cigars and even larger Wine list from around the world.

This is Kel Li at the registration counter. Close to half the the crowds present that night were non local. Guess not many Malaysians are aware that there are stand-up comedy in KL itself. If you enjoy stand-up comedian like Russle Peters, then let’s support our local stand-up comedians! We need more talented people around.

Chi Ho was the host that night. Before he introduce and welcome each comedians on stage, he made some jokes to entertain the crowd. As the host, he did not put on the Ah Beng’s slang like he did before and the jokes the used were rather similar to the one we heard in the previous show. For those who have attended the previous show did not find the jokes as funny. I think they should only use the same joke once every 6 months or event longer, that way people wouldn’t remember it.

The first comedian who came on stage were Yugi.

And we have Alfred.

Sri

Zac Kamal

And a newcomer, Ian from the UK.

For those who have missed this one, do come for the next Comedy Night is on the 5th February 2009 (Thursday), at Little Havana, starting from 9pm onwards.

One month ago, I accompanied Kev and Bobby to the Extreme International Autoshow which was held at Putra Stadium, Bukit Jalil.

The main attraction of the event obviously have to be the modified cars, but that wasn’t the only reason that attracts the boys to going. It was the show girls that they were hoping to see. Unfortunately, it didn’t turned out as what they were expected, having the fact that event such as the Xtreme Night were filled with hot babes with tank tops and super short skirts or hot pants. But this one, was far too little. Too bad, boys. Probably because the event was low budget and they couldn’t effort to pay to hire the show girls.

Anyway, the boys were there for the cars and babe. As for me, I was there for the cars, and the babes too. Hey, girls look at girls too, you know.

Most of the cars over there were either equipped with big LCD or huge speakers  and sub woofer. They all reminds me of the cars from MTV’s Pimp my ride.

Aside from that, some of the cars have really good air-brush work done on them.

While others would rather opt for a luxury make over with gems stones and diamonds. The more bling the better!

Or would you prefer more LCD TV instead?

Or how about some horn for a spoiler with star shape car exhausts? Too weird for my licking. LOL!

Advertlets will be having a paintball tournament tomorrow at only RM10 per blogger! RM10? Yes and I’m not joking. Normal rate is RM90 for none-blogger. For RM10, you’re paying for the paintball marker rental fully equipped and paintball pellets.

Short note: Hey guys, I know I haven’t been updating my blog recently. I’ve been really busy the entire month of December as well as this, and it ain’t getting any better. There are things to do but yet so little time. Lately, I’ve been traveling a bit, so do stay tuned as I have some blog entries to post up. For the time being, do bear with me as you will be hearing from me soon. God bless and have a blessed Year 2009!

On the 17th of December 2008, me and a group of friends were invited to attending Blanc Le Club at Herritage Row. The person who invited us for the opening was CS, whom previously invited us to attend the food review session at Bondi Beach Grill & Bar, The Curve.

Before the launch, we were told that the entire Blanc Le Club will be white and lighted with neon lights all over to get the really cool effects. We were also told that there will be a levitated DJ console which I think it will be really cool to have them, but I guess somehow they ditched the idea.

At the launch, there were many VIPs that were presents that night and guests were treated with free flow of beer in conjunction of the opening.

Following are some pictures taken during that launch.
