Jinwern, The Next MIA Ambassador?

April 27th, 2007, Jason

I don’t know whether is it pure coincidence or it is just meant to be that way. Whenever I happily messaged Jinlan’s younger sister, Jinwern, she would sure to tell me that she’s now in the running for the finalist for some competition and would be glad that if I can help her to vote and ask my readers to vote too.

Eeessshhh…! Every time also like that. I hope next time it would be something else, Jinwern! You hear me? Blek!

This time, she is now in the top 20 for the Malaysia International Aerospace Ambassador Search competition, a competition organized by Malaysia International Aerospace and the tourism ministry in conjunction with Visit Malaysia Year 2007. I couldn’t find much information on the official website, which is very badly designed by the way. Hence, lets skip all that part and go to the prizes part.

The top 8 finalists are on their way to win the following prizes :

1st Prize: RM12,000 cash
2nd Prize: RM8,000 cash
3rd Prize: RM5,000 cash
5x Finalists: RM2,000 cash each
12xSubsidiary Titles: RM250 cash each

Isn’t that a very huge sum of money for a competition like this? RM30,000 to be given away just like that. Gulp. Anyway, Jinwern is in the top 20 and requires your little help and money to vote her into the top 8.

To vote, you need to

1) Take out your mobile phone and create new message.
2) Type “F8 14“. (Take note of the space.)
3) Send to 39993.
4) Repeat steps 1 to 3. (At least vote twice lah!)

Note : Each SMS will cost you RM0.50 + 1 SMS charges according to your service provide.

Come on, give this little girl a little hope to enter top 8. Just RM0.65 per SMS and a little 10 seconds to type that SMS and you have given her another hope and chance to win that at least, RM2,000 cash prize.

See, so cute and pretty, you don’t have the heart to not to vote for her, right? Right? RIGHT?

Vote, ok?

By the way, do read the featured posts that I wrote on JiNz sometime ago, if you haven’t read.

依然是朋友

April 27th, 2007, Jason

This is the last draft I have for time like this. If you still can’t feel it, I am currently in bloggers’ block and it has been the same for the last two weeks. I didn’t have any outings, events or interesting things for the past two weeks due to examinations, assignments, jobless and etc. Hence, topic-less.

Anyway, this was a song used to be in my play list last December. As much as I hated this singer due to an event I covered, this song is really nice.

Enjoy.

Download the song - “依然是朋友” (Loosely translated to “Still Friends”.) by clicking here.

I really need to do something before this situation, I mean, this bloggers’ block, gets from bad to worse.

Why Is The Rum Gone?

April 25th, 2007, Jason

I am sure everybody knows what is Nuffnang by now, if not you can put your head into the toilet bowl and flush yourself away. Only after you have flush yourself, please read “Nuffnang, Asia’s First Blog Advertising Community“. Now, as promised by Ming and Timothy, Nuffnang is going to repay us bloggers for all the support given to Nuffnang since the launch of Nuffnang.

Nuffnang has booked a whole cinema room for the movie “Pirates of the Caribbean : At World’s End” on May 24, 2007 and is giving out 250 tickets to all bloggers who participated in the little game of Nuffnang, which is to write a post that says, “Why is the rum gone?”

Yes, one of Captain Jack’s favourite lines, “Why is the rum gone?”

That’s because there will be 250 bloggers drinking his rum!

Click here to the official website to read more on the first outing hosted by Nuffnang.

I wonder have Captain Jack renewed his driving sailing license yet? If not, he might need to check with JPJ using the MyEG service. After all, one can check whether he did receive any summons and his license at the same time for a small fee.

Luckily, the premier of the movie is two days after my last paper. I should be able to make it then, hoping to catch up with the old friends that I got to know through blogging all this while.

P/S : This is not a sponsored post, but rather a way to show my support for Timothy. Ha! Fine, half sponsored then.

沉默

April 22nd, 2007, Jason

不久前 两个月前,阿姐转寄了一封电邮。

沉默,因為我不知道怎麼開口,怎麼對你說。

沉默,因為我說不出自己有什麼好處,而你的好處卻有好多。

沉默,因為你身邊有一個人,

沉默,因為我怕被你拒絕,我怕你說:「你很好,可是……」

沉默,是因為我們是好朋友,我怕從此失去一個知己,又得不到一個情人。

沉默,是我不想你以為我一直為你做那麼多事情,是因為我暗戀你,而不是欣賞你的才幹。

沉默,因為我不能向你保證些什麼,我不能給你些什麼。

沉默,因為我不想你知道表面上滿不在乎的我,原來那麼脆弱。

她说,读完以后竟然想起我。

我,沉默。

P/S : Its way too weird after translating it to English. Hence, no translation. So sorry.

500

April 18th, 2007, Jason

No, not another fantasy comic of 500 fatties against the army consists of 3 million burgers and fries!

Now, does the number 500 has any significant meaning to you?

I doubt, because its just another number to them, we, him, her, you and me. However, it has a significant meaning because this post is the 500th post of “Jason Mumbles” after 891 days (2 years, 5 months and 10 days) since November 9, 2004.

I know many bloggers out there has achieved the 500th post or even the 1000th post milestone, but to me, it is a small and humble proud moment for the blog itself and the blogger.

Hopefully, there will be the 1000th post and I am definitely looking forward to that day.

P/S : 500 posts excluding sponsored / advertising posts.
