Your Future Explained Via Genetic Blueprinting

by Ah Yen on May 26th, 2008 | Posted in Blog | Tags:

A colleague of mine forwarded an email on reading your fortune and personality from fingerprints.

The article is transcribed below.

Fortune & Personality Traits From The Tips Of Your Fingers
*Guys should examine their left hand while women should look at their right hand.

Check your prints!

Check your prints!

Here are the two different patterns of circles and waves seen on every finger. To make a reading, look at your thumb print first, then your index finger, your middle finger, your ring finger and then your little finger in that order. This is the sequence that offers clues to your destiny & fortunes of your life.

We shall refer to circles as Os and to waves as Ws.

No Place Like Home

by Ah Yen on May 22nd, 2008 | Posted in Blog | Tags: ,

As Dorothy would put it, there really is no place like home.

I hail from a small town called Kuantan which is bestowed with a long stretches of beaches. The town of Kuantan is the capital of the state Pahang, which in turn is situated on the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia.

Thats just about it. I can’t tell you anymore details about Kuantan because I know whack about it. Don’t ask me where to get the best bite in Kuantan because I wouldn’t know. My list of Kuantan’s best bites would probably yield a count of less than my 10 fingers.

Why? Haha that’s because as a kid I was not the type that hang out with friends. Most of my meals were taken at home where my ma would cook. So during my pre-university life I would most likely be classified as a NERD.

After Form 5 I spent most of my time studying and working away from home. Amidst my busy schedule, I would look forward to travelling home and spending some time in quiet little Kuantan. My home was my holiday villa, serene and peaceful. You’d be surprised how quiet it is.

Population Control

by Ah Yen on May 11th, 2008 | Posted in inspireMe™ | Tags:

A post on Planet Green recently highlighted the use of praying mantis as an alternative to pesticides.

This concept is not exactly new in the agricultural industry but has taken a back seat to pesticide usage. Reason being? Pesticides are much cheaper and easier to deploy than natural pests. Its just that simple. Agriculture in essence is a business and businesses talk about money. The less time you spend on the solution, the more monetary returns you get.

Now this post brought back some hypothesis which I made up back in 2004 when the tsunami hit Malaysia. We have natural predators to control pest population i.e. praying mantis for aphids, owls for rats but what about humans? What is controlling the human population? The answer is simple. Nature.

Wend

by Ah Yen on May 7th, 2008 | Posted in Blog | Tags:

Yesterday as I was sifting through Treehugger posts recently, I found this post on a magazine called Wend.

The outdoor magazine @1/2 price

The outdoor magazine @1/2 price

Wend is an outdoor magazine which is 100% committed to a sustainable lifestyle and is inspired by biking, kayaking, climbing and surfing. One of their rather interesting green initiatives is by selling their online edition for only half the price of the printed version. This month’s issue is offered free online.

Its really nice to see extra effort to promote green living. Green products are usually marketed at least 3 times the price of conventional products. Wend slashes their online price by half. I wonder if other magazines like Time, National Geographic or even FHM would follow suit?

P/S: I am very into environmental issues lately. Maybe I should write more about green stuff. Hmmm….

Bloggin’

by Ah Yen on May 5th, 2008 | Posted in Blog | Tags:

Its difficult to blog.

At least its difficult to set up a blog. Do you agree with me? What do you really want to write about? Your life? Your hobbies? Gadgets? I mean can you imagine the time you need to spend on content creation?

These are basic questions you need to ask yourself before you start blogging. Every blog needs to have a purpose, be it for bitchin’ about the secretary or about how to green Mother Earth.

Only YOU are able to answer the questions above.

Here’s a site I found which highlights some of the things I mentioned above. Hopefully it will help guide you on your way in your blog, or even LIFE! Note that this link is biased towards business blogging. Later on I will publish my own guidelines so stay tuned!

The Checklist: Getting Started

Happy blogging!

Risk!

by Ah Yen on May 2nd, 2008 | Posted in Blog | Tags: , , ,

I got into facebook through a friend and boy did that change my life!! I was spending hours and hours with the games and applications developed by users. Its not my fault that the developers are so good at what they do. You can’t help it. Its fun! I was hooked on to Battle Stations, Mobwars, Warbook and most recently World Conquest.

Dare you risk it all?

Dare you risk it all?

World Conquest is similar to the board game Risk! and involves global domination. Yeah you heard it right! GLOBAL DOMINATION.

*insert evil laugh here*

What you do is you select a country to place your troops and slowly conquer each country by the roll of dice. Each country will be randomly occupied by other players and depending on how you place your troops you may be able to conquer the whole continent and even the WORLD!!!

*insert evil laugh here*

Sorry ha..got a bit overexcited :P Last night I was playing World Conquest in a lightning round and once I placed my troops in Australia, I found that another player did the same as well. In response, the player who took the colour purple started barking orders at me in the chat window which is transcribed below.
