At the centerof the story is 12 yr old Lyra who sets out tofind and rescue her best friend Roger and ends up on an extraordinary quest to save not only her own world, but ours as well.This movie stars Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig and newcomer Dakota Blue Richards as Lyra and is based on a Trilogy called His Dark Materials by Phillip Pullman.

My aunts love to gamble. They often make trips to Genting to have a go at the casinos there. Oh and dont get me started on Chinese New Year. When Chinese New Year comes around, the mahjong tables get pulled out, the desks of cards are taken from the desks and the games begin.

Im sure my aunt would love online casinos. All the top online casinos at your fingertips, no travelling anyway, everything is just a click away. The problem is that they are sooo many that its hard to choose from. Here’s where this website comes in handy.

This site lists down the top us online casinos by Payout Percent. Everyone wants to win their money back right? So we hv to choose the top casinos that give the highest payout percent. This site also lists down review, bonuses and ranking of the different casinos. And its all available in a user-friendly, easy to read format.

There are also links to other similar websites such as Online Poker room and Online sports book to support your gambling needs.

My car is back from the workshop. I missed my baby

Took a long while for the car to be fixed after my accident in cyberjaya the other day. Luckily the insurance covers all of it.

This is how bad it looked after the accident

Advertlets, the catchy ‘household name’ among bloggers. If you’re a blogger and you have not heard of it, then please get out of your tempurung (coconut shell) and take a peek into the topics that create a buzz in the Malaysian Blogosphere.

Why did I join Advertlets? When i first found out that it was possible to make money through blogs i was sceptical to say the least. Then I found out that some friends were actually making money through blog advertising - but mostly those overseas (which pays through PayPal or other methods not accepted in Malaysia) incur extra costs for handling, transferring the money to a local bank account and service charges.

Secondly is that international blog advertising are more for international (particularly US) readers - selling items such as hammocks and promoting contests in the US - which are not relevant to my (mostly) Malaysian readers.

However, these problems are eliminated with Advertlets because it is a local company and the payment would be easier and the adverts would be aimed towards local readers.

They call themselves Asia’s Better Blog Advertising Network, and not without reason. These are three of the many reasons why I like Advertlets

(1) User Friendly Website - First impressions are everything, so their website is the first step to impress the bloggers and advertisers. It has a very asthetically pleasing look with easy and functional buttons - very user friendly. I love how everything is just a few clicks away. The logo is also cute and the featured blogger showcases the best and interesting bloggers in the Malaysian (and in the future Singaporean) blogosphere.

(2) Local Content - The ads in advertlets are relevant to bloggers in Malaysia. There are currently two advertisers involved with Advertlets. One of which is Mindvalley who were looking to recruit programmers, bloggers, researchers and designers. The other is Digi, the yellow telco provider who wanted to promote their Digi Fu-yoh Street Blast in East Malaysia. More info >>

(3) No Traffic Requirements - Certain other blog advertising services pose restrictions that require that you get at least 20 unique hits a day for a week before the blog is approved. For advertlets, there is ZERO minimum traffic requirements. So even if you are just starting to blog and your blog is not that famous yet, you can participate! More info >>

Photoshopping a big girl into a Model

With photoshop (running on a Mac if im not mistaken) you can lose 100 pounds instantly. Similar to the Dove evolution commercial (If u havent seen it, its about how a normal looking person is made to look stunning using makeup, lighting and photo editing. Go look for it in youtube).

Ah the crazy-crazy world of look-driven people
