Doing The Karen Cheng

LOL… I’m sure most of you know what is this. If you don’t then you might want to check Doing The Karen Cheng out. I’ve been camwhoring inside the fitting room ever since I have a digital camera but I never post about it in my blog. I’m sure many girls like to do this, camwhore in the fitting room, toilet or anywhere with mirror or anything that can reflect hahaha…

It happened that Karen also did this very often and she posted it a lot in her blog and she has many readers that actually e-mail them their camwhoring photos, so she started this group. Why didn’t I think of it?!?! πŸ˜› Else you’ll see Doing The Irene Law instead πŸ˜› Hahaha… Joking…

You wondering who is Karen Cheng? She’s a Perth based blogger, she’s a mommy of 2 and she’s HOT! Her husband is one lucky husband. I always visit her blog when I’m free.

I decided to join this group in Facebook just for the fun of it. I’m out of thing to blog and found some photos that I had taken from 2006-2008, so might as well share it with you hahaha… Another reason for me to post my photos πŸ˜› Vain I know… I usually use my mobile phone because it has auto-focus feature that I won’t worry about having shaky photos.

Here you go… Just filter some out hehehe…

All taken this year.
(L-R)
Taken at Crown Square, forgot the name of the boutique. It’s too low cut and I don’t have huge boobs for it:P That black thing in the middle is my bra *LOL*

Taken at G2000 during their opening at tHe Spring, trying it out for fun, not intended to buy, I don’t need this kind of clothing as I’m not an executive πŸ˜› It’s not cheap too.

The rest all taken at Nicole at tHe Spring. Hmm… Not buying also, I don’t wear pricey clothings… No money… Wanna sponsor me?


(L-R)
Mom found this dress from one of the boutiques at Hock Lee and asked me to try it out, it’s nice but too bad too big for me πŸ˜› It’s size S and it’s still too big for me!! *LOL* Psst… My dream wedding gown would look something like this hahaha… You’ll just have to wait till that day but I don’t think it will be any sooner *LOL* My prince hasn’t arrive yet hahaha… 10 years more maybe…

Got my hair coloured this year and after the colouring, I got the most expensive haircut in my entire life!

Both dresses taken at one of the boutiques at Wisma Saberkas last year. Tried both and ended buying the first one which I wore on the first day of CNY this year.


(L-R)
Had my hair permed last year.

The black and yellow tops, taken at Tun Jugah Urban & Co., I LOVE the clothes there but they are too expensive for me πŸ™ I was shopping for 2006 CNY clothings.

At bing!’s washroom πŸ˜› Hehehe… The full length mirror with my brother’s phone as my camera was sent for repair. I was there for a bloggers’ meet in 2006.

2006, got my hair coloured for the first time, it took me 6 hours(3 hours per day) sitting at the salon. -.-”

OK… That’s all. πŸ˜›

My 1001th Post

Posted on By sweet surrender 7 Comments on My 1001th Post

It’s my 1001th post for using WordPress!!! *CLAP CLAP CLAP* πŸ˜› My 1000th post is taken up by a sponsor hahaha… So I can only announce it on my 1001th post *LOL*

I hope the tech support from Dell will come today… I hope it can be fixed on the spot. All my latest data are in there, I can’t do much with my old laptop except doing things that I have copies online, those not stored online, it’s all in XPS. *SWEAT*

On this 1001th post, I’m going to tell you that I’m jinxed to the max!! Sigh… Every single gadget that is belonged to me and bought by me will sure have problem during its lifetime. This XPS is less than 3 month old only ok?!?!? Don’t ask me to go into the BIOS, I totally cannot even see a startup screen, how to go into BIOS? It happened after Windows update. It must be caused by the stupid Windows update. Just one update and that’s it, how “lucky” am I? I hope I’m not going to be charged with maintenance fee later. I hope they will come today! Must come today!!! Else I’m going to file a complain because the tech support told me yesterday that he’ll “most probably” send one over today. Do they keep their words or not? I’m not so sure with the “most probably” hmm…

So far, Dell tech support is good but their warranty team and customer service team are BAD! I was asking about extended warranty and it took them more than one week to reply me after I pressured the tech support team for the extended warranty quotation. Then when I got it, I have some parts that I’m not so sure and want to seek clarificiations but no respond from them for more than two weeks. During this period of time, I sent 4 e-mails containing the same questions and the quotation expired also.

Then I decided to just take up the offer given in the quotation that it will upgrade my current warranty and extend my warranty for another 2 years. I e-mailed them again asking whether the quotation still valid or not but no respond at all!!! How am I going to pay you when you don’t repsond to me?!?! I don’t want to pay and then later telling me that the quotation is no longer valid and need me to add on money for it again! This is so not right. Till now, I’m still stuck with this one year limited warranty thanks to the warranty team! “Lucky” me, there’s a problem now! If they are going to charge me for it, I will going to make sure Dell is going to compensate me for all the stress and time wasted! How am I going to do it? Blog big big about it? πŸ˜› I don’t know… It’s not like I’m having 10K visitors per day hahaha…

We’ll wait and see… Still waiting for the tech support call to come over. Hmmm…

Let’s see how bad I’m jinxed:
1. My first laptop, Toshiba (don’t remember the model but it was pretty high end that cost about RM5K+), it “electrocuted” me whenever I typed. -.-” At the end, they refunded me fully as they cannot replace it, the model was no longer in production and it’s a factory defect, that’s what they said. All happened in 2 weeks time.

2. My second laptop, the one I’m using now, NEC also cost RM5K but slightly few hundreds cheaper than Toshiba with specification so much lower than Toshiba gave me problem in less than one week with the screen! My screen was “sliced” into half by a vertical blue line -.-” Sent it to repair. Two weeks later, it’s done but there were huge ugly scratches on my casing, it was so ugly! I demanded them to replace the whole unit to me but they said they could only change new casing for me. It took them another 2 weeks or so because they need to ship the casing over.

3. My home PC, I decided on the specs and it gave problem too not long after we used it.

4. My current camera, Canon Ixus i zoom, battery contact problem ever since the first time I used. Solved and using it until now. More than 2 years already.

5. XPS… Elaborated just now.

All these are the gadgets I owned so far since 2003. At least my mobile phone never give me any problem. I only have 2 mobile phones so far. My previous Canon Ixus was OK too because it’s not bought by me and I’m not the one choosing it also.

That’s why if people ask me to recommend eletronical gadgets, I won’t say too much. I never want to help anyone buy any gadget also. I’m very “lucky” with them *LOL* Hmm… Next time my DSLR, I think I better don’t go buy it myself, I’ll ask people to help me buy hahaha…

Guess Who In Sunday Papers?

Posted on By sweet surrender 14 Comments on Guess Who In Sunday Papers?

Update: I tried to call Dell again and after all the possible diagnosis on the phone, they have to send a technician over tomorrow. The tech support was blur about it also, never he encounter such problem *LOL* At least he assured me it’s not my hard disk problem, I’m so relieved. For the time being, have to make use of this old laptop, hang… Hang… Hang… Wait… Wait… Wait… TOLD YOU I’M JINXED!!! No matter how good the gadget is, as long that I’m the one buying it, I’m the one using it, there would surely be at least one problem πŸ™

SHIT SHIT SHIT! MY XPS is now in huge trouble! It can’t startup!!! It kept accessing the DVD drive, it sounded like Transformer and no loading of Windows -.-” I tried to slot a Dell driver CD in and thought might be able to prompt the screen to show something but to no avail and worst it cannot be ejected!! *CRY* Called Dell support and all the agents were busy and waiting for them to call me back. Now using old laptop… Hang, hang, hang… I almost want to reformat everything from this old laptop and fully use the new one, luckily I didn’t. OMG! WHAT HAPPEN!!! Yesterday was fine. Before I shut down, Windows update itself and this morning cannot startup πŸ™

Anyway, let’s go back to the main topic…

The Chasing Dreams

Posted on By sweet surrender 5 Comments on The Chasing Dreams

Currently running out of things to blog πŸ˜› Actually have some photos but quite lazy to do them hehehe… It’s been a while not posting random things like this.

Why blog about dreams? Actually I dreamt of something few nights ago and oh my it’s was really adventurous, it’s as if I’m watching a movie starring me in there! Hahaha… Anyway, let’s go to some dream patterns that I’ve been having for 26 years of my life. ARG! I’m 26 -.-” 4 more years to the BIG 3-0!! OH NO!!! πŸ˜›

I always have dreams in colours. I don’t think I remember any black & white dream. I always got dreams with bad guys chasing after me but at the end I always managed to get away from them. I noticed a pattern in this kind of dream of mine. The story line is always almost the same but the bad guys and the surroundings are different. I always got this kind of dream after I’m done with my stress instead of during the time I’m stressed. That explains why I always manage to escape from them hahaha…

When I was a kid:
I always dreamt of me being chased by monsters or some robots and I was running away from them at colourful places. I was actually wearing some cute clothings hahaha… I even ran away from them by floating inside a bubbles, running up colourful stairs, hiding in colourful mazes and, and flying away with a balloon. All the cute and colourful stuffs except the bad guys were very ugly.

When I was in my early teenage years:
I would have dream being chased by monster, you know those monster we usually watched in Ultraman, Power Rangers and so on. I don’t remember what I’m wearing though. I would be running around hiding and escaping from them at home, at school or some unknown places with staircase. They are not that colourful and cute anymore but still had colours.

When I was in my late teenage years and in my early 20’s:
I would dream that I’m being chased by bad human be it men or women instead of monsters. I would be wearing casual clothings ranging from jeans to skirts. It’s always places with staircase. I could jump from one place to another without logic. It could be in a house and suddenly in a garden or then out of sudden to somewhere like the beach and so on. It’s never logical, it’s scattered everywhere.

Now…:
I’m would be wearing some formal clothings like office wears, power suits, heels, you know… Corporate clothings. I would be in full make up, hair well managed and so on. I would be chased at places like hotels or shopping malls or office, basement carpark, lifts, staircase, in the middle of the a metropolitan and highrise buildings. Now, I’m not alone but with people helping me to escape even undercover policewomen or even spies and we all dressed up so nicely while running away hahaha… This time, I don’t have to always run as there would be a vehicle at least for me to escape, then run again, vehicle again hahaha…

OMG! Hahaha… See the patterns? Interesting right?

Irene(Sweet Surrender) @ Lake Park

Ahem… Vain post coming your way πŸ˜› Hahaha… People have been asking where’s my post about the photo shoot I did on 20th April 2008 at Lake Park as I’m always known to be the kiasu one that want to blog about anything first *LOL* I can’t find time to post them and at the same time, I don’t have most of the photos with me. I can only “steal” from the photographers’ websites *LOL*

The photographers were Allen, Alvin aka Pazuzu, Edwin, Jimmy and Shen.

Before that, I would like to remind you that I’m not good at posing and I’m camera shy. It’s true! I got stiffen up in front of camera especially when I need to pose for more than 5 seconds *LOL*. So whoever doing photo shoot session with me, you must have sharp eyes and be very alert else you won’t be getting good photos of me. They managed to take some good shoots which mostly are sort of candid. Since most of them know me and took my photos before, they know what to do. Hahaha…

I’ll just show you one photo that I like from each of them, you can view more at their websites/blogs:
This is from Allen, well… I’m not sure how many photos he got, he just showed some in his blog so I just picked the one that I like. It’s taken when I’m posing for the others. Hahaha… You can view them at his blog. He also posted some behind the scenes photos and extra features for this photoshoot session. They are funny!

This is from Alvin aka Pazuzu. I did a catwalk πŸ˜› Then turned to the camera hahaha… You can view more photos in Alvin’s Multiply. There’s one photo that he tested with his wide angle. Hehehe… My legs are so long in there!

This is from Edwin. I sat at one of the stairs at Lake Park and they started to shoot! Hahaha… You can view the complete album in Edwin’s Multiply

Photos from Shen. He said that I’m loud πŸ˜› hehehe… He thought that I’m very quiet type hahaha… Now you know… I can be very loud at times hehehe… His Nikon D300 is really “HUGE” πŸ˜› Plus the lens, it’s LARGER… I want this kind of lens also!! *LOL* Wait till I get my own DSLR but the lens cost about RM3K+ *FAINT* Where got money to buy? All in all weighs about 3Kg summore! Man… heavier than me πŸ˜› You can view the complete album at Shen’s Multiply


Lastly, from Jimmy. Hahaha… He used his compact digital camera only πŸ˜› Well… Since he said he always want to get girls to be his model for photoshooting, this is the chance for him *LOL* I’m the white rat. When he got his DSLR, you will see more girls in his blog! Hahaha… You can view some of the photos in his blog

When will I get my DSLR?!?! Not now… No money… Sigh…
