Photos of Celcom Blackberry Night @ Boulevard

Posted on August 18, 2008August 18, 2008 By sweet surrender 16 Comments on Photos of Celcom Blackberry Night @ Boulevard

Here’s the photos that I took last night. My new camera made my life easier. I don’t have to spend too much time on taking steady photos.


This fair is located just outside of Boulevard. I think it will go on until the end of August.


You can “throw” your money here if you like 😉


This is the latest addition to Boulevard Mall. Children can play here but parents please keep an eye on your children and don’t leave them there playing alone.


This is the highlight of the night, BandItogether08 where all the local bands would be performing.


Last night, there were 6 bands and I only saw 3 as I didn’t stay till the end.
Left-right: The two MCs, the two lead singers of blue-something-something, another group which I don’t remember the name.


The bloggers that went last night. Obviously everyone was lost and didn’t know what to do but sat there and watched the performance hahaha…


Hunted up and down for Blackberry to test and there’s none but notebooks and Wii bowling competition. Guess who won it? Wombok!! Hahaha… He didn’t wear his mask last night.





Finally the twist, the girls came out with the 3 Blackberries.


We got to touch and test them a bit but it’s not good enough. Couldn’t hog it for long as there were many people waiting to have a look at them and we can’t feel the usefulness of it. The first one, the navigation is on the side. The second one, it’s using joysticks to navigate. Both aren’t really nice to use, they are very hard to navigate, the joysticks one has built-in camera. You need to get used to their navigations for smooth navigation. I didn’t manage to test the third Blackberry as I had no idea where it had gone to.


After that, it’s time for STM to perform. They sang lots of songs, new and old songs.

After that, I was thinking of leaving because there’s really nothing to do there except sat, watched and listened. It was late too and my parents were waiting, they had done their shopping but who knows…

My “Blueberry” moment. -.-” You can see how Silas reacted to it. GOSH! So embarassing…


When I went up the staircase, aikss… it’s really shaky, I almost lost my balance. When going down, I was so scared ARG! DAMN shaky!! I’m very bad in balancing!! Luckily I didn’t fall and manage to got hold of my composure. Once down there, I was in a state of shock and everything went blank for quite a moment even when I’m leaving.

I think I had made a fool of myself talking up there and making some crazy requests which I don’t see those bloggers down there respond to it. They might be embarassed with what I had say. There were two more went up, one I know, one I don’t. I’m not sure was there any other bloggers went up after I left. I heard complains that there’s no freebies for them. *SHRUG* I know I got it because I was the first one reporting to them.

By the way, this event got nothing to do with kuchingbloggers.com, we were not involved in any of the organising or planning of it. We were only asked to inform the bloggers in our database about this event that everyone was invited. I know there were many people complaining and pointing fingers to us but you guys had pointed your fingers at the wrong direction.

Celcom Blackberry Night @ Boulevard

Posted on August 16, 2008August 18, 2008 By sweet surrender 8 Comments on Celcom Blackberry Night @ Boulevard

Photos will come later. I’ll give my feedback about it first. Just got back from it one hour ago, I couldn’t stay till the end as I was tagging along with my folks as they wanted to do some shopping there. Didn’t expect to stay so long there.

Let’s talk about the good part:

  • It’s refreshing to have this kind of party
  • We got to move around freely to take pictures, thanks to that 😉
  • The decor wasn’t so bad
  • Sound system was good
  • Lighting wasn’t bad, I got many good pictures
  • The Wii competition was interesting but I was lazy to play 😛
  • The effort for bringing in bloggers is GOOD! Sadly not many turned up though.
  • The catwalk was a refreshing twist

The part that needs improvements and I’ll give some suggestions, hope you don’t mind since you guys said that we can talk about it whether it’s good or bad:

  • Bloggers were lost, they didn’t really know how to get started
  • As I said when on the stage, we were all expecting there’s few units of Blackberry(sorry that I blurted “Blueberry”, didn’t mean it, it just slipped out as I was thinking about food just now coz I was hungry 😛 Blueberry cheesecake please…) on display and let us test it out and let us do live blogging with it so that we can brag about it hahaha… Indirect publicity! You might get some people sign up on the spot! Most of us were looking high and low for it but instead there were only two laptops. I brought my laptop along and I didn’t use it because I have no idea about the availability of WiFi. Also, at least there’s something interesting to do instead of just sitting there listening to songs and taking photos.
  • There is not many information about Celcom Blackberry and we can’t blog much about it. It would be great with goodie bags that includes some Celcom merchandises and brochures about it. In fact, we were expecting at least something like this.
  • Someone left a message in KuchingBloggers.com chatbox saying that bloggers that bring laptops will have goodies awaiting(refer here)… Hmm… I don’t think I got any except going up to the stage for a tube of chocolate with a cute Mr. Bean’s bear keychain. Well… Maybe later in the night but anyway I didn’t stay till the end of it. I might be wrong.

By the way, to Albert(one of the photographers there) if you read this, I’m so sorry that I actually forgot to say bye to you even though you are so near to me, in fact just next to me. My mind was blank that time after coming down from the stage as the staircase leading up the stage was shaky and I was still in a stage of shock with the shakiness(I’m afraid of shakiness especially if the platform is high with nothing that I can hold on to), and was in a rush too, I only remembered to say bye to the bloggers -.-” So sorry about that, do keep in touch. Also I couldn’t recognise you, it’s been a while not seeing you, you looked familiar to me but I just couldn’t recall who.

To wrap up this post, I would like to thank all those that involved for including us. 🙂

Beijing Olympic Grand Opening Ceremony

Posted on August 9, 2008August 15, 2008 By sweet surrender 5 Comments on Beijing Olympic Grand Opening Ceremony

OH WOW! The longest blackout in my life! 3 and a half hours! Will talk about it tomorrow. Gosh… I have so many things that I need to do. Guess what?!?! It’s whole Sarawak blackout!!


Hahaha… I’m nuts 😛 Just imagine I was there, this post is just some scenes from our local TV station.


We were expecting to watch it on Satelite in Phoenix TV but who knows they don’t have the right to the live telecast, had to look for CCTV but didn’t know which position and channel so ended up watch our own local TV station, TV1 which only started to air it at 8.30pm sigh…


Missed the beginning and the beginnig was the best part.


The most boring part was the contingents walking into the stadium.


Luckily the Malaysian team came out at the beginning, contingent number 10.


After that Id idn’t watch but online hahaha… The TV was just on waiting for the climax.


The stadium and the president of the organising committee.


The children sang while the Olympic flag was on the way to the flag pole. I notice I forgotten to edit the picture of the people carry the flag to the pole *LOL* Lazy…


The opening ceremony was so cool! Too bad missed the beginning…

Kuching Festival 2008 – Part 2

Posted on August 6, 2008August 7, 2008 By sweet surrender 6 Comments on Kuching Festival 2008 – Part 2

Went to Kuching Festival again last night. This time, we managed to visit the garden and I got to test out my camera with all the flowers hehehe…

Let’s see the food first, didn’t have much last night, no idea what to eat *LOL* Not nice one… We spent RM14 for these:

Left: The crowd before 6pm
Right: Curry lamb leg(RM7), very tough -.-” So hard to eat.


Nasi Briyani and Pineappple Rice (RM3.50 each), very dry, very hard to swallow.

Enough about the food. Here’s the photos of the Garden Show. I tested my camera with it. I quite like the macro, easy to use. However, I know the pics are not good hahaha… the framing and everything are just not right. I just simple shoot without composing. No editting done, just resized.

Let’s just let the photo do the talking. Nothing really interesting to see ;P

Kuching Festival 2008 – Part 1

Posted on August 3, 2008August 4, 2008 By sweet surrender 7 Comments on Kuching Festival 2008 – Part 1

Been there? I went there on Saturday and just now. The photos you see here were taken yesterday and today using my mobile phone and some of the food pictures with my new camera hehehe… I didn’t go on the first day, I missed the parade else you would see tonnes of colourful floats and people in my post. However I managed to watch the fireworks display from my bedroom window. Here’s the video:


This was taken today with my phone.


There are about 80 stalls at the fair. This was taken yesterday before 5.30pm, it was raining when I was there after my exam.


This was taken just now at almost 7pm, lots of people, taken with my phone also.


Taken today with my phone.
Left: The balloons stall that definitely will be there. Last time when we were young, my dad had to buy balloons from here everytime we went to the fair. He had to do this for more than 10 years. Imagine how many balloon he had bought for us, we got at least one balloon during every trip there. Now we’re all grown up and we don’t need to buy any balloon anymore but we will surely buy food.
Right: The stage is sponsored by Isuzu this year, I think…


The trade fair inside the hall. Lots of bridal studio taking part, it looked more like a bridal fair than a trade fair *LOL*


These two were taken with my new camera at home. I played with the macro mode. Will review about this camera later.
Left: Don’t know what it’s called, it’s RM5 for this one “ball” of rice. So many people bought it and it took more than half hour to get ours. -.-”
Right: Sambal stingray! Don’t know how much but not nice… The sambal was pretty bitter.


“O Jien” aka Oyster Omelette(RM7), the wet type from a new stall, not so nice. Too “eggy” *LOL* Photo on the left taken with my phone and the right taken with my new camera.

The following all taken with my phone yesterday:

Left: The sio bee stall that you will defintely see every year.
Right: From some restaurant. Bought the 3-layer pork meat with salted veggies, the one in black. Very expensive and very small in portion, not nice at all.


Left: “Chui kueh”, a type of Teochew cuisine if I’m not mistaken since it’s from a Teochew restaurant. My dad will definitely buy this when he’s there.
Right: Yam basket from the same restaurant. Didn’t buy this though.

That’s all for the time being, I’ll be visiting this fair quite often hehehe… So you will see more post coming your way.

Blogging since 2002. Anything before 2006 is no longer available. It is no longer on this server. Back then, I built my own blog and updated it using HTML. No database or anything. Only started blogging fully with a CMS in 2006. However, whatever was on the Internet will stay on the Internet. So... It should be still somewhere on the Internet. Then again... Why do you want to dig that far?
