Funny Day



Today started out fine but some events happened along the way and now I feel that this was not your usual day, kinda funny/odd.


The first was this guy that insisted that he needed my assistance in something, he has been on my back since yesterday. So being the kind of guy that I was, I made the telephone calls and etc, in preparation to assist him. Just when I have gotten everything arranged he called and told me thank you but he doesn't need help anymore. I do hope you guys out there don't meet people like that, it is very very frustrating. Can you imagine all that effort and time wasted ? I wasn't mad or anything just disappointed thats all.

Then as I was surfing the web I came across this two sites that was fantastic. Man I would love to meet the authors. The first was www.sherve.blogspot.com/ I was so excited that I quickly MSN my buddy tOpkOp. Sherve's blog is mostly about her everyday life. There are some great pictures of her and her friends hanging out eating, parting and camping. The second blog is www.estherq.multiply.com/ This blog is quite empty just some pictures but I have to say that the owner is one pretty looking lady. She has all the qualities of a model.

Later on tOpkOp introduced me to this blog called http://tips-for-new-bloggers.blogspot.com/ This site teaches you how to add lots of stuff and tricks that you could do with your blog. There is too many things to mention, but this started tOpkOp on his quest to mod his blog. Now if you compare it with yesterday you would see that it has changed a bit with some new items added to the sidebar (he also wrote something about me there, which I think is cool. If only he would just add some hyper links).

Recently I was invited by another friend to contribute in his blog about the
tsunami. No there is no new tsunami but an old blog (http://tsunamipenang.blogspot.com/)which he started then was hijack (yes, talk about gangsters on the web) and he only recently just regain control of the site. Initially
today it was OK but later in the night Blogger informed us that there was some technical issues and refuse to allow us to post or anything. That to me is one strange incident. Now here I am writing down all this amazingly strange yet odd but funny day. Funny because its just not everyday that you get lock out of one of your blogs.

I Think I Am Carrier of This Bloging Disease

Blogging is this a disease? Well behold I just found out one of my friends have caught my blogging fever. Well one of my best friend tOpkOp has also started a blog. He just started today but well I think he has some good material, just check out the two videos he included from youtube. One is about a Thailand disco and pretty girls, the other is about free hugs (which I think was shot along Pitt Street Sydney Australia. Correct me if I'm wrong).

Well do check out his blog at http://controlmacho.blogspot.com/

Well I know that this blog falls on the gray, but hey the blogger does have a good selection of dance CDs. You will also find other stuff to download too like games and software.

Wish I Was There

Traveling seems to be the one of the favorite pastimes of the human species. Maybe its due to the human nature to be curious and the love for adventure that is in all of us. I mean don't we all love something new? Some new experience? We want to travel and see for ourself other countries and enjoy the beauty and history of that country.

One of my friend just went to Cambodia, and he was very impress with the culture, people and history. As usual he came back with some very nice pictures of the places he visited.

Is the grass greener over there? Well I guess I'll have to ask him the next time.

I have to say that his photographic skills are surprisingly advance:)

World Yesterday Comes Tomorrow


The journey of the human race seems to revolve in circles. Look at fashion for an example, we go from tight to lose then tight fitting clothes again. Many expects of human history has always been in a loop. You can tell that after a certain period of peace there will be a period of violence. Why can't we all just progress by learning from our past and not repeating past mistakes? Is this the fallen nature of humans?


Look around you, apart from better technology, our live are only slightly better than our forefathers socially that is. True we no longer teach our children with the cane, but we still get into the same arguments with our neighbour as our fathers did then over the way some car was park or over who the apples belong to when the branches are over the other side of the fence. Same age old question about who is better, more correct, whose cause is just and whose isn't. Did we not learn anything from mistakes of the past? Or have we just forgotten all that because we now drive better cars and live in bigger houses. We now have mobile phones so we are always connected but do we know better than before?




Where is the urge to have compassion for others? To forgive our enemies because they did not know better or because they have wronged us in the past, we know very well that two wrongs don't make a right, don't we? All around us people are not letting go, they are keeping grudges, keeping scores so that when even the slightest chance to release these negative energy arises they just let it go. Look at the world today and you'll see many examples. All this and more to come, does anyone believe any good will come from all this?




We have to start forgiving and forgetting. Why because if you look at our history books you'll know that all conflicts however minor and however major never has a good outcome. Tell me one war where you can say it was just, tell me when your last disagreement with someone is justified and I'll tell you about the number of human lives lost and all the emotional suffering, that comes with it. All those feeling are never forgotten, just kept in storage waiting for time.


That is why we all have to start forgiving and forgetting also our yesterday will be our tomorrow.

Body Art-Beauty and The Beast part-2






Body Art is not only limited to tattooing. The second most popular body art is call body piercing. This is done by piercing metal studs, rings etc, in to ears, nose, eyebrows, nipples or even to the extend piercing ones private areas. The actual piercing must be done by someone who is a professional. Both the venue and the equipment use for the actual piercing must be sterilise/clean. Keep this in mind because the risk of disease is very great, the same goes for tattooing. Piercing is very fashionable now a days. This form decoration is less permanent because when you do not want your piercing, you just remove the stud/ring and the pierced hole will heal over time.



There is also another type of body art and its call body painting. When done well the naked human body will look like it's fully clothed. This is very popular in Europe especially during the hot summer months. This is an art form, it's about creating something beautiful to please/shock/humour the audiences. It is not so much for personal beautification like tattoos and piercings.





So whichever form of body art that fancies you go give it a try. You may shock yourself.

Cute Girl Video(Yoshioka Miho)

Stone Spiders

This is a great video, watch it and enjoy

Body Art-Beauty and The Beast part-1



Body art, if it was 5 years ago, it would most probably be frown upon but lately this phenomena has become the status of being cool. It is now main stream fashion. After all the designer labels, it is the next must have item for fashion conscious people today. So let us look at what exactly is body art by today's standards.






Tattoos was and still is main form of body art that is popular. Tattoos have been incorporated into many cultures around the world. This is true from the east all the way to the west. The designs that are popular today, comes from both Western and Asian origin. From the west we have Celtic designs, Biomechanical designs and the so called Tribal designs. Designs popular from the east would be the Japanese and Chinese ones. The various types of tattoos each reflects the rich heritage of its original culture, one can see the Irish heritage in the Celtic tattoos and the dragons and samurais of the east gives us the feel of the mysterious Asians, each with its own beauty, character and meanings. Ideas for tattoo's not only originate from the above but also any type of artistic artwork available today. i.e. drawings, art pieces, photographs, etc. The modern tattoo equipments available today enables the tattoo artist to ink almost anything on skin today. You only have to pay a visit to any tattoo shop to see to see how true this is.







The size and location for a tattoo is very personal. You would find people with a small tattoo in a very private place on their body to people with full body tattoos (head to toe). This depends on the artistic taste of each individual. There is a saying that tattoos are addictive, which may well may be true because I've got numerous friends who started off with just one small tattoo and gradually this grew and grew to cover half of their upper torso. Addictive or not you'll have to decide for yourself. As for me it wasn't addictive but after enduring a few hours of pain I felt a great sense of achievement. The level of pain that one would feel depends on which part of the body the tattoo is being drawn on, also what type and size of the tattoo.








The single most important thing that you'll have to keep in mind if you want to get a tattoo irregardless of style and size is that this is a permanent art work. Sure you see lots of adverts that provide tattoo removal services, but these are both costly and would leave scars or marks too. So if you want to get a permanent marking done make it a choice that you know you'll like for a long time. Else got a temporally tattoo, one that will fade after one week or so. This is very important, too often people get a tattoo of their current sweetheart's name, a week later they are no longer together. Then they start to look for ways to remove or change the tattoo so that it no longer represents that person. Heed my advise readers.


Finally I've got to say that tattoos have been here for a long time and it will be with us for many more just as long as there are artist and people who desire beautiful permanent body art.

Sony PSP-Why mod?




I own a white Sony PSP and I can say it's a wonderfully great piece of hardware, but lately I'm been seeing lots of websites and videos on modding for the PSP. This happens on both the hardware and software level.


Why do people do this to their PSP's? I think the answer to this is lies in the human nature to customise items that belongs to them. Let me ask you, did you put a nice wallpaper on your office PC or have a screen saver of your own? Most of you would answer yes. Well we all do this because it's the computer that we use, its like marking our territory to say yes this is mine, my spot!! The same goes to modding of PSP's. Its mine and I would like to mark it, so it's uniquely my and my alone. Look around and you can see people doing this to everything from cars to mobile phones etc.



Modding is split into two categories. The first is the physical or hardware kind of modding. This basically is to make its appearances more attractive or to add functions (as shown in the video earlier).






Here are some pictures of some PSP mods.




















The last two pictures from the right are for a joystick and a TV output connector.


For all these mods I think you would have to bear in mind that you would be violating the warranty from Sony because you would have to open and add wires, lights etc. But look at how cool they look in the pictures, ya! If you want to keep the warranty you should not open or change anything unless its done by Sony. Well maybe you'll want to do all this after the warranty has expired or get a pre-owned unit. The ones I like are the ones with those flashing lights, but the battery life must be very short.

Now the second type of mods are software based. This basically means that people play a with the firmware (this is the OS for the PSP), this is done so that people can run custom software or better known as 'Homebrew' applications. You can read more of this here.


Most people (this is only my opinion) do this so as they can use unlicensed copies of popular games that is easily downloaded from the internet, this has gotten so serious that there is a rumour that Sony is going to stop this by upgrading all new unsold PSP's with the latest firmware (the current is ver 3.51, which still haven't been crack). Maybe also release a new PSP model (PSP2) that offers better protection against practice. You see when you buy a new PSP from the shop, the firmware installed would likely be a few months old (this is due to Sony coming out with new firmware monthly and also the speed of stock rotation in the shops. The latest firmware would add more functions and security for your PSP).


Well I do hope all this is insightful. My advise is don't mess with your PSP too much cause from the factory, it's a cool piece of hardware.

By the way I will love it if anyone else who have stuff like this to share post their stuff here so that we all could share and learn.

PSP TV

I own a Sony PSP and I think it is a cool gadget. The functions are great and with Sony behind this device you know that there will be good content support (most of the good PS2 titles are available for this platform and also future PS3 titles too).

Lately I've been reading that many people are modding their PSP's. This is a video of this guy modding his PSP. This mod would enable a TV output for the PSP.

Look at how complicated it is. Would you do this to your PSP? I would love to hear your views.

Later I'll write more about this modding craze.

Enjoy the video. You could get more on www.youtube.com , search "psp mod".

My Blog Creation....

Well I've finnish playing around with the settings for the blog. I didn't change many settings. I've previewed the blog and I think it looks nice, its easy on the eyes and the only thing I did change is the font colour . The original was a darker shade of grey than this. I think this is easier to read. Hope you would agree.

I added links for videos from http://www.youtube.com/ and http://www.video.google.com/ for your viewing and also news from http://www.google.com/.

Anyhow I think for a non-technical person (I don't know computer programing or html etc) to have done this is wonderful. Congrats to http://www.bloger.com/ for making it so simple to people like me.

1st Blog and Hope to Please.....

Well today, I woke up and decide that I should start a blog cause its easy and I love to read other people's blogs. I just love blogs cause its the purest way to share and learn. This is a list of what I did to create this blog:-

  1. I googled around first to see what was the easiest way to create a blog. Well needless to say most blog forums suggested that http://www.blogger.com/ is the easiest and non-technical way to set up a blog for a beginners.
  2. At http://www.blogger.com/ I had to log-in to my Gmail account first to register. This I did and you would find that the registration process is very easy and uncomplicated (that is provided you already have a Gmail account).
  3. Then I was asked to name the title of my blog, followed by the desired blog address (of which I chose http://www.slimfox.blogspot.com/) .
  4. After all that you are ask to chose from a list of blog templates that you can preview before making your choice (man, this is sure is easy. I always though there was more to it but really its that easy!)
  5. Next you are ask to write your 1st post (which I'm doing now).
  6. From this screen I can see you can also "adjust settings" and "edit posts" of your blog. I'll do that after I'm done writing this.

If you have any comments on the format or the colour scheme of my blog please do leave your comments cause it would be of interest to me.

Well this is my first post, sorry if it's short but I want to play with the settings and see how my blog looks like. I'll make another post later
