Frisbee at ISKL

Yes, that’s another one down in my list. I had a great time playing Frisbee at International School of Kuala Lumpur(ISKL) last Sunday. Woohoo! Feels great to have played the ultimate game after a while of absence.

New pages added.

Hooray! I’ve expanded this blog to include more pages, and you bet more is coming up. The most recently added page is ChillsContests, the place where you can test your luck. Another page would be ChillsBooks, where I keep track of my own readings. The pages would be updated periodically.

Its now RM 3,500…and counting

This is really getting insane. It’s still snowballing! And given the wrong answers like the ones today, I reckon the it could snowball to RM 4,000 with ease.

This is bad news for the callers today, but good news for the rest. A reason why you should be in the game.
I tried calling today, and even yesterday, but I didn’t get through. Maybe it was beginner’s luck the first time I tried. Or maybe the callers increased in direct proportion to the total prize money.

The only wrong answer today that I remembered was “pet”, which is obviously one of the wrong answers. Sigh, these people should really do some research before they call in. The other two wrong answers left an impact so infinitesimal in my mind that I could not help but forget.

So the question is still open for challengers.

Are you up to the challenge?

The check out the wrong answers, view my previous post.

A Question that’s worth RM 3,400 and counting…

What do 52% of kids under 18 own?!(ended)

You may be thinking – so this is the question that’s worth three freakin’ thousand plus ringgit Malaysia? Yes, its true. I kid you not.


But the question is simple right? Just Google or look it up in the web, surely it came from some survey out there. WRONG. If it is so easy, it wouldn’t have snowballed to this.


I’m sure you want to know how to win it too. And the good news is – you can try your luck in this contest!

What a lucid experience!

A The Cock and The Bull True Story

I emerged from a shop. I can’t remember what shop it was, but it could’ve been a cyber café or photocopy shop. Looking out from inside the shop, I could see some cars on the road. It was quite hot and bright a day. Strangely, the element of heat was missing.


Suddenly, I have the thought of going out onto the road to stand in the middle of it. As soon as I stepped on the road, there weren’t any cars left. The thought of getting hit by a car was in vain. 


Why did I thought of getting myself killed? Aha! Then the answer just flowed into my mind.

Assumption

Assumption, assumption, assumption…

What do you think of the blog title “The Cock and The Bull”? For some people who are searching the web for those words, they’ll think that its related to dirty stuff, though I have to admit that this may be true for many websites. If you’re daring, try searching “the cock and the bull” in Google images. Poor things they are, cock and bull. Its natural somehow, to assume. We all do it, sometimes without knowing it. .

One down, few more to go…

Just came back from shopping XD

Ahh yes, another 1 down, few more to go. I doubt that I would hold up to my holiday itinerary.  Wooh!! What exhaustion. I went to Ampang Point just now to buy some stuff. Didn’t know shopping could cause fatigue. I wonder how the opposite sex can even think about shopping as a hobby, don’t they ever get tired? Sometimes, its amazing how shopping can turn girls into superhumans, shopping non-stop for countless of hours. Anyway, I bought nothing much really, just 3 pairs of shoes.

5 brilliant little ways to save money

Little overlooked tips and tricks to help you save money (especially for students).

Eyeing the new iPhone 4G that rocked the tech market recently? Ever wished you can afford to have your dream car? Much time and effort would be needed, but it is definitely not impossible. It is just a question of time.

As the saying goes “money does not grow on trees”, money indeed is hard to come by. The recent economic down turn somewhat made a scar in many people’s wallet. Fortunately, the scar is starting to heal as things are starting to get bullish again. (Bull loves this)

What's next?

HOLIDAYS!!!

Yahoo!! (I wonder whether thats what the founders of yahoo.com felt when they first came up with the company), my holidays have officially started, starting today. After another 4 months of education and 1 week of some extra work, I'm now on a much needed break till next year.

Skepticism and critical thinking

What if what you think you know are mostly untrue? Are you ready to accept a paradigm shift of knowledge?

Heard of nutritional supplements, detoxification, energy levels, modern day healing, and the phrase “boost your immune system”? Well, I’m not surprised. All these methods of improving health are as common as computers, but do you know the real deal about these kinds of methods?

Recently, I stumbled upon an interesting video in clearbits.net, which is an open licensed digital media for file sharing.

Check this website out at www.clearbits.net.

I was scrolling through the weekly contents when a short movie entitled “Here Be Dragons” caught my eyes. In short, it is a movie about critical thinking, pseudoscience, and skepticism all meshed into one big logical video.

Believe me, you’ll find many surprises in this video that would make you go “Hey, I’m using that” or “Oh my God, I didn’t know that, and its definitely good to know”. For those naturally skeptical, you may think that this is one of the bull’s product (if you don’t get this, read my second post).

If you have 40 minutes to spare, watch this interesting movie below, or else, take some time off to watch it.

First things first

ORIGINALITY

A cock and a bull are one,

a tyro at blogging it certainly is,

at times out comes the bull shit,

at times out cocks splendor.

The blog is up and running, but there are a few things that should be addressed. I'm going to bring some change to this page. Don't we all like change? Change is here, happening now, happening everywhere.

So, the first thing to do is to change the outlook of this page. As you noticed, I changed the blog title to make it a bit more my style or less "skema". Next thing in my "change itinerary" is to experiment with different backgrounds, like the current one. Nothing complex is used to produce these, just simple photoshoping. I'm not saying that the existing backgrounds and designs are sucky or bad(in fact I think they're great!), its just that I like to see my own creation on my page, something that's unique to me, something that identifies me. 

Call it originality, yes, that's what I would like to have, and that's what people should continue to produce in their blogs and works. At the end of the day, no matter what you're trying to achieve, try putting some originality into it, and you may just work wonders. It has a different feeling when you're doing something on your own and seeing your work being displayed. Admiring the end product would give you tons of satisfaction. Just give it a try and you'll understand what I mean. As a suggestion, you could try making your own blog title rather than the build in display-words-only kind. Good luck! :)

"Stay original. Like original."

Attention to all - a new blog is in the sphere!!! Attention getters should be simple and catching. Words may not be the best way to attract attention at times, hence the symbol "!". The exclamation mark can have a multitude of meanings, from expressing feelings like anger and ecstasy to ominously warning people about the danger ahead. It is also used in computer programming as the "not" logical operator.

The inception of this blog comes with a purpose - to plant seeds into your subconscious minds (just like how inception does), not! It is just a place to be to see the world from my cockpit. Speaking of cockpit, it reminds me of a discussion I had with my friends a few days back. We had a sudden epiphany of wordplay which led us to topics of condom and porn. But do not get excited just yet as we shall not dwell into the latter(sorry if it is anti-climatic). Just for your information, this discussion was one of educational and not like what some of you might think. We thought that a condom brand with the name of cockpit would be apt and quick selling. Imagine this advertisement:

COCKPIT

Now you're in control!

Better streamlined shape for turbulent rides.

A good way of using your imagination...Now laugh at that.
