Where can you get independent review of top 10 web hosting providers? Where can you find cheap professional web hosting services under $10 a month? Where can you find all hosting plans include at least one free domain name registration and 30 day money back guarantee? I’m sure many people are trying to find all these online.

Time to change your server? Getting fedup with your curent host? In fact I do get fed up with mine lately. Kept going down, down, down. Not only that, I’m running out of bandwidth pretty soon too. I’m in the process of looking for new server to host my blogs. I found out that Bluehost is the Editors’ Choice Hosting. You can even get Free Domain Forever, Host Unlimited Sites, $50 Yahoo Credit, $50 Google Credit. Hmm… I don’t need the domain though. Need time to find out more.

If you are like me, then you can do your reseach at webhostinggeeks.com. You can now rate and review your hosting provider and share them with the world.

Hehehe… Very late update today eh? 😛 I’m sure you’ve been waiting and kept refreshing.

OK… Just a quick one to introduce my Miss Bimbo to you, she is krissyadale 😛 Why this name? I have no idea, just simply named it. I got to know about this game from Katherine-Lee few months back I think… Don’t remember 😛 Registered the account for fun to see what it’s all about. It’s about making your Bimbo the coolest of all. It’s a girly game though.

You can dress up your Bimbo with Bimbo Dollors and then you can also build up your Bimbo Attitude by taking up jobs, go to dance, go to beauty salon, when you achieve the goal or play some games and so on. There are many to discover, you have to reach the goals required to advance to the next level.

I don’t play this everyday, only when I remember about it and once I forgot all about it, my Bimbo got so sick and the game had to end 😛 So I resetted my account and start again hahaha…

I replayed it again, don’t really need much of your time. Juts make sure you log in everyday to feed your Bimbo. If you are not sure when you will go back, you can put your Bimbo on vacation.

That’s all about this game. Frankly it’s quite lame for me hahaha… However, it can be something for you to release stress and chill.

I mentioned about my Ixus i Zoom’s E18 error yesterday right? I did a search on the net and guess what!?!??! It can be easily fixed! The camera don’t have to go RIP 😛 I tried the options provided to Repair Canon E18 Error but nothing work!

This is my camera taken with my sis’ camera, luckily she’s back in time as I need a camera later for food tasting session. Phew… This is what you see… The lens cannot retract at all…

After all the steps, we had to go to the extreme by dismantling it but this is not that extreme yet as we only dismantled it halfway and some people actually went even more extreme by banging the camera to hard surface with full force and it works! 😛 I did try to bang it but I dare not to bang too hard because I’m afraid later it leads to another problem, the CCD problem due to the impact which would be worst than this E18.

So… Dismantling it that’s it but to no avail.

Still cannot fix it because we dared not to go further, there are too many “layers” so we screwed everything back in place. Had to go further by dismantling even more pieces to take out the lens.

Basically every part of it have to come off. Pretty risky. So decided to bring it to camera shop and ask them dismantle it, it shouldn’t be too expensive as the major problem for E18 is due to dust or sand or the lens might have come out from its intended place and got stuck due to some unintended impact, there is nothing to replace according to the website, just need to place the lens back to its original location and clean the surrounding. So need people with the skill to do it.

Any place to recommend?

Hehehe… Remember I blogged about king.com previously? I did tell you that I like the game called Cookie Rookie. I played many times and never reach 70,000 mark. Then two weeks ago, I wasn’t plan to break any record or anything, I just clicked on the jackpot tournament and played like usual. Who knows this time I actually managed to hit the 100,000 mark! Unbelievable! I didn’t expect I could hit that level!

For the first time I saw something different, a huge gold cupcake fell to the table but it looks like you-know hahaha… I got the Best Baker award!! Hahaha…

Another surprise was that I didn’t expect that I could get into the top 5, I was in the 4th place. WOW! Unbelievable! However, later it dropped but still maintained in the top 10 until the time of the tournament ended. I was awarded with lots of jewels(300+ of them if not mistaken) and I managed to advance to the next jewel level which I didn’t expect I would be able to do so in just 2 days.

It’s so addictive 😛 However, I don’t think I can go till this level again hehehe… It’s all by luck, so better screen capture and blog about it 😛

I’m on XPS now!! Actually can use yesterday already 😛 Only update now hahaha…

The tech support came to fix it at 11.30am-1.30pm, yesterday. He unscrewed everything and replaced the motherboard. There’s some scratches but not so bad, the deepest is the one near the XPS logo near the on/off button… Oh well… What to do? This design is different from normal laptop, it’s not easy to take out everything. Want to see the parts? 😛 I took some photos when he dismantled everything, didn’t take all because I didn’t want to disturb him working *LOL* Just took some that were closer to me.

The “dead” motherboard.

One unknown part and DVD drive.

The scratch. Poor baby… *sob sob*

All photos taken with my phone 😛

The verdict!?!? OVERHEAT!!! WAH PIANG! For the first time I used a laptop until overheat! Motherboard replaced. I’m only using it for about 2 months and I heated it up so badly! 😛 I guess I’m too hot for the laptop to handle *LOL*

I know this model heat up very fast from the reviews I read, I didn’t expect I could actually kill it in such short span of time. I still can’t believe what I did! Hahaha… I think I have to go out and hunt for a fan for it *LOL* Else we’ll be seeing another overheat episode from Sweet Surrender and I will become Dell’s regular customer for motherboard replacement, sure will get blacklist :P.
