Sweet Surrender’s Page Rank(PR)

Posted on By sweet surrender 2 Comments on Sweet Surrender’s Page Rank(PR)

WOW!! Raining for 3 days now… Not stopping yet. However, I’m not worry that my place will be flooded as my area is consider one of the highest areas in Kuching. Though The Sarawak River is just nearby and Senari Port is nearby too, there is no fear of flood. If my area floods, the whole Kuching will be under water *LOL* Summore, where else can you find so many hills in the middle of Kuching? My area alone already have more than 3 hills. The highest is the one where CHMSNo1 situated. The hills are not like what you imagine with muddy road, big tall trees everywhere, orang utans swinging from tree to tress -_-” Sorry… As we always get comments/questions about living in the jungle or on trees. Surprising at this era, we still get questions and statements like this hahaha… They are well-lit tarred roads with shops built at both sides and the dividers are planted with decoration trees.

Aiyooo… PPP rejected many of my posts because according to them, my page is less than PR1/10!! -_-” No wonder ReviewMe didn’t want to approve me after so many times of submitting. But… But.. But… I checked from so many sites that mine is PR3/10 using http://www.irenelaw.com and http://www.irenelaw.com. FYI, I’m using irenelaw.com for PPP πŸ™ See!

My post about home security got rejected because the reason was that my common PR was PR0/10, average PR was 0.18/10. Fine… I understand as the requirement for that post was I must have PR4/10. Then, today another got rejected because the requirement is PR3/10 about SEO & SEM and I was told that my common PR is still 0/10 and average PR now is only 0.35/10, a bit of increment from the other day. So pathetic. So, for these two posts, I had removed all the links to the sponsors’ sites and remove it from Commercial Break category and edit them to be my own post for SEO purpose *EVIL GRIN* Now… I’m waiting for 3 more rejections as they all required PR3/10 and above.

Another one about the photography contest was rejected because my blog is not a photography blog so I had deleted this post and replaced with other post and the replaced post was approved! Hahaha…

Now… I think I have to do tramendous SEO works to this blog so that I can have higher PR. I already have several plans for it but don’t worry, they have nothing to do with my entries, they are just some technical stuffs such as tweaking the codings here and there. Also… Mind to exchange link with me? πŸ˜›

Behind The Scene – Bloggers’ Meet

Posted on By sweet surrender 11 Comments on Behind The Scene – Bloggers’ Meet

Saw the news about Jeff Ooi and Ahirudin bin Attan are being sued by NST for defamation last week. Click here to read more about it. So, what do you think? I’m not worry as I’m not into topics like that but I feel that it’s not very fair. The ISA didn’t even catch them but it’s NST that wants to sue them. I don’t understand and there is not need to make me understand.

Damn Streamyx! Kept disconnecting! I can’t update my blog! Missed out opportunities in PPP too! *ANGRY* Took me ages to get this post up *show middle finger*Support the petition!

Warning: Bandwidth sucker!!

Last year, Sue wanted to meet us, Kuching bloggers, when she’s back in Kuching and we had a bloggers’ meet at her place and it was really an eye opener to her. Not only that, Unker Ho’s Lala Crofts that met us at bing! also had the chance to feel how a bloggers’ meet is like. I’m sure many of you, non bloggers, have this big question mark of what’s going on when there’s a bloggers’ meet taking place? Usually it’s a private affair just like when you are meeting up with your gang. However, there are special things going on that you will not get in a normal meet. I’m going to let you go behind the scene and remember, you see it first in Sweet Surrender!

Cameras, cameras, cameras…



When the food/drinks come, it’s photo taking time. No one can touch the food/drinks until we are satisfied with our photos.

Eat, eat, eat, drink, drink, drink, talk, talk, talk. Eh! Got ppl take photo! *POSE* Others that don’t know just yakking away and do their own stuffs and showing off skills.



Camwhoring, disturb people’s food/drinks, making fun of others, making fun of ourselves, and if you see bloggers that kept hiding their faces from the cameras, these bloggers would like to remain anonymous.


That’s about it. Oh… We were labelled the noisy bunch by the one of the staff of bing!. -_-” We are loud too! πŸ˜› Also, group photo is a must to us. Worst, if there are 10 cameras, someone that is appointed to be the photographer(usually it’s anyone that is not related to our meet) will need to handle 10 cameras.

The end!

Look! Here Comes the Clown!

Posted on By sweet surrender 9 Comments on Look! Here Comes the Clown!

Warning: I’m mean.. Oh Yessss… I am! Lately I’m in the mood of picking just about anything… So, you can skip this post if you want to.

Imagine this:

The hair: Yellow coloured rhinestones hair accessories.
The face: Blue eyeshadow(monotone) with icy pink lipstick.
The body: Tube A-line layered bridal gown in white with small green & pink lace flowers scattered all over the dress.
The feet: White pump with pale yellowish socks.
***
The face: Green eyeshadow(monotone) with pink lipstick.
The body: Asymmetrical A-line gold coloured with greenish tinge when light reflected evening gown
The hand: Black net gloves.
The ear & neck: Gold earrings, silver/white gold necklace.

What do you think? Everything clashed from head to toe (-_-“) I’m not an image consultant, makeup artist or whatever but it’s just common sense OK?!?! GIRLS! This is a disaster! Especially if you are the bride! OMG! Everything was even captured in the video and camera and definitely looked like a CLOWN! Goodness gracious! Super *JIAT LAT*

Who to blame? Both to blame. Many brides have this wrong perception that they must look over the top or trying desperately to show off on their special day. Next, the makeup artist doesn’t know what he/she is doing because they are not professional. However, the huge responsibility still falls to the shoulder of the makeup artist. It’s your job to make them look pretty even with their unreasonable request. Your skills come in here. A lousy one will make you ended up like a clown just like the above mentioned.

Ended up like this for your wedding day is damn pathetic. I want to puke when I saw the photos. Even my brother who is 10 years younger than me asked me, “EH! Why like that?”(o_0”)

Actually the above can be easily corrected by anyone. I mean… It’s quite basic, unless you have black and white vision. Here’s my idea:

The hair: Green coloured rhinestones/white crystals hair accessories.
The face: Earth tones and with tinge of green eyeshadows with not too pink or too red lipstick(stick to more natural tone).
The body: Tube A-line layered bridal gown in white with small green & pink lace flowers scattered all over the dress.
The feet: White pump with NO SOCKS!! Or wear panty hose that is of your skintone.
***
The face: Gold and greenish eyeshadows with not too pink or too red lipstick(stick to more natural tone) topped with gloss.
The body: Asymmetrical A-line gold coloured with greenish tinge when light reflected evening gown
The hand: No gloves or wear gloves that match the gown’s colour.
The ear & neck: Gold earrings, skip the necklace. Else go for the same gold.

So bride-to-be, don’t try too hard. Go for style that can last at least a decade. Go for natural makeup and emphasize one area of your face such as the eyes would be great. Go for style that is not easily drown by time. You’ll never go wrong this way.

Hmmm… I wonder is the bride going to read this or not? I don’t think she will *LOL* Even if she does, I think she won’t know that I’m talking about her as I don’t think she’s even aware of how awful she looked like that day. I don’t care whether she reads it or not anyway as I’m not related in anyway to her. Hahaha…

Best Berry

Posted on By sweet surrender 8 Comments on Best Berry

Haven’t dine out for quite sometimes already. So, decided to dine out for lunch today at Best Berry. They have new menu available now. The have wide selections of toasts, some of them are so cute that I don’t think you have the heart to take a bite at all.

I like their drinks. They come in drinking jars. The drink on the left is Lemon & Tea HK Style(RM3) and the one on the right is Pudding & Tea(RM3.50).

Here comes the food, very big portion.
Left: Udon Asam Laksa(RM4.90), I thought they have at least put in a bit of seafood such as prawns in there but they didn’t. Only some pineapple chuncks, lots of red onions, shreaded cucumbers and some spices unknown to me. It’s not very spicy but for those that can’t eat spicy food, I won’t recommend it. Else, you can order it πŸ™‚
Right: Here’s something from the new menu. It’s called Fried Fotlao Rice(RM5.90). In Chinese it’s “fo tiao yi chao”, direct translation to English is “Buddha Jump One Fried” *LOL* The taste was pretty bland with lots of veggies and some seafood. The name really suits the taste πŸ˜› If you get me. If you don’t, nevermind about it.

Best Berry is located at the same row as Kaya & Toast, Madam Tang’s, E-West, and Chicking at Petanak. Quite a nice place to hang out with friends. It’s not air-conditioned so it’s a smoker paradise.
