You've got snail mail! My first snail mail and paycheque ever! Finally I got paid by Nuffnang after a year of snail-like pace collection in advertising money. It's always nice to get paid for doing something I like which in this case is blogging. Along with the perks of being a Nuffnanger makes everything so fun!
I'm rich! Not...
But it got me thinking, how much is my blog worth? After a year of being a Nuffnanger, it seems like it is RM180 per year. Kinda sad really. About 60 cents per day. One thing for sure, I'll definitely won't be able to support myself with my blog.
Well money is still money. So I'm happy I got paid finally!
But no matter. I'll just do what I love doing. Rant in my lovely QueerRant blog.
You know you love me.

The team at Nuffnang has been a real busy bee of late. First the premier of Made of Honour then this Project Trafford and next Wild 'Live' Party. Project Trafford is a super Top Secret Project that Nuffnang has been cooking up. Read it here. As you can see, its a very hush hush project and not much details are revealed.
Top Secret Project and Uncle Sam wants YOU!
I applied for it. I've got all the time in my hands and I spend most of my time in front of my computer anyways. I suspect I'll be going back to KL next week. Apparently we have to pay our hostel management RM 40 a week if we stay longer. I ain't gonna pay this bloody place. We'll see how things go.
A few days later after the application and bam, I got shortlisted! Awesome-ness! Slendid news indeed! I can't wait to get started assuming I got in. So what is Project Trafford? Well, I'm not at liberty to say (always wanted to say that).
All this is very exciting. Need to tune up on my creative thinking skills for this little project and yes, those selected will be compensated. I like compensations. Good motivation I say and its what's makes the world go round and round.
Stay tune and more will be unveil.
You know you love me.

I am proud to announce the new comer into the blogsphere, Slender Faghag, also known as Christine (oh how glam girl!). Apparently she's been contemplating and writing some draft posts here and there, totally not paying attention during classes. Her blog entitled The Mouth Marathon is still under construction but she's already started posting.
I am tempted to say many dirty things with regards to the title. So many sexual connotations can be coined from that and not to mention all the sexual fantasies related to the bodily orifice, The Mouth. But I shall digress before she goes anal on me (hehehehe another word that can be associated with sex).
But in the realm of mouth marathon, she's definitely an Olympic Gold Medalist. So talks a lot, almost like a latino woman scolding the useless husband. How appropriate to have a blog that resembles so much to the author. Heheheh.
Anyway, welcome Slender Faghag. Don't be like La Faghag, leaving the blog unattended for about a year now. Shame on her. Have fun while you're at it. My fellow queers do give her blog a visit or two.
So now I have Slender Faghag, Twin Faghag and Silent Faghag as active bloggers. I love my faghags and blogging is so fun!
You know you love me.

Ah finally its done! Stupid campus internet connection. It was transferring data on a glacial pace... Almost 12 hours or more hunting for Blogger templates and editing tedious HTML Codes. I am utterly pleased with the facelift though I am still annoyed with the internet connection...
I do hope the new template will resolve any loading issue that the previous template was causing.
The template was taken from here. I love it. Its clean, simple yet there's an air of chic in it. Colour scheme is very nice and luckily I have a photo to use for the banner that matches the green.
I'd like to thank Sam for making it. I couldn't figure out the font to use. So why not just hand it to the expert to do it eh? Splendid job with the banner Sam.
I think this template should keep me satisfied for awhile.
Now I am extremely tired and could use a good shoulder and neck massage (oh hell make it a full body massage) right about now.
You know you love me.

Deng it, just look at the time. Staying up late to do my project and my nose is leaking mucous profusely. I sense a flu coming up. It had to hit me during this busy stretch of period. Arrrgh. Anyhow, enough rambling.
I found something really interesting the other day when I was looking at the referal sites to my blog and I found this Gua.com.my Community. Have anyone of you heard of this site before? Its a first to me.
I was rather surprised that my blog is listed here along with Sotongzai. I wonder how my blog got there in the first place. I never signed up for anything like this before.
Gua Community?
Well nothing to complain about as long as it gives me hits. Hahahah. I'm such an attention whore. Though I did find some interesting blogs here too.
I think I should go to bed now. My nose is leaking like a leaky faucet, sneezing like mad and just look at the time. I should go have sahur. Hehehe.

Whenever I think of TGIF, I'll remember the Jack Daniels' Burger and the Ultimate Mudslide. Those are my all time favourite and must haves everytime I go there.
Oh TGI Fridays, where art thou~~~
As you can see from the title, you would suspect Nuffnang is up to something, plotting and scheming something for us Nuffnangers. Ever since the first plot of Why Is The Rum Gone to the latest plot Why I Want To Eat at TGIF.
I'll tell you why I want to eat at TGIF.
See this picture of The Ultimate Mudslide? Its the ONLY picture of TGIF I've got in my collection. How sad is that?! I am ashame to call myself a TGIF fan. Please help me redeem myself from this shameful state of being. Take me to TGIF and I shall camwhore the food like there's no tomorrow.
The lonely Ultimate Mudslide.
Thanks to TGIF for sponsoring an advert here in my blog, now I have cravings for Jack Daniels' Burger and the Ultimate Mudslide... Everytime I look at the advert, I'll go into a state of salivating. Its not a pretty sight.
The moist grilled beef pate, topped with smokey with a tinge of saltiness Provolone cheese and a generous serving of Jack Daniel's sauce. Crunchy fresh lettuce, juicy tomato and crispy golden brown fries on the side, salted and peppered. Now this is what I call a REAL burger.
Oh the Ultimate Mudslide. If there's such thing as the nectar of life, this is it. Just imagine vodca, Kahlua coffee liqueur, Bailey Irish Cream, cream, milk and ice all blended together into smooth, thick and creamy liquid. Pour it into a huge glass coated with chocolate syrup. Then pop in a hand full of Mini Kisses chocolate chip on top. Truely the Ultimate Mudslide.
I swear the amount of things I'm craving for from TGIF, I think I'm pregnant... AGAIN!
I want that Jack Daniels' Burger and the Ultimate Mudslide now!

See the new widget that I added? Its called PacMee (PAC = Personalisation, Advertisement & Communication) brought to you by Hotlink. Saw it in my Nuffnang advert and it got me curious about it. So I decided to try it out.
At first glance, its features and functionalities are very similar to Twitter. Something you put in your blog, online profile or websites and announce what you're up to. It looks kinda nice too and blends in well as a widget don't you think?
Being a product of Hotlink, you can bet your wallet there'll be charges and true enough there are. RM 0.50 for 10 shoutouts and 20 shoutouts are limited to a month. 20 shoutouts? That's a bummer. Well, not like I use it that often. Heheh. I just like the option of putting more than 20 shoutouts. I'm a fan of options you see and I like having them.
Then they have this feature of following a person's shoutout for a low low price of RM 0.25 a month a person. You'll get sms notifications of all the shoutouts. Its like receiving sms from your favorite online celebrity. Something tells me Maxis and Hotlink are making lots of money from this.
Well, I guess its a somewhat useful sending a shoutout through my phone when I don't have access to the net. At least you guys will know I'm still alive right?

Blogger's got this new feature that I've been dying to try. Its the upload video function! I've been waiting for so long to use it and its finally here. I really love Google for coming up with ingenius stuff.
Kudos to you guys.
Here is my first video clip to my blog.
*Ignore the voice. I didn't know I sound super bad....
Yep, those are hamsters. And yes that hamster is running left and right and left and right. I spotted these hamsters with McDave when we were at KL Central. Very random I know but its so amusing to see the hamster running left and right.
If you look closely, its mouth is filled with nuts. Hahahah. Just so adorable. Looking at him running for no apparent reason. Hahahhaha.
I wish I can have hamsters as my pets. Heheheh. But I think Rat Rat would not like the idea. Hehehhe. He shall be the only rodent in my eyes. Hehehhe.

I always love receiving emails from Nuffnang and get all excited about it. Maybe its the thrill of getting new advertising into my blog, time for me to cash out my earnings or upcoming events.
But today its different. Its an invitation to join them for a good cause, preserving the Sumatran rhinos. All we have to do is share some space for the "Save the Rhinos" logo in the blog to lend our support and spread the awareness of endangered rhinos.
Get it here.
Its about time I do something for nature through my blog.
So here's to our Sumatran rhinos.

The results are out for the best blog of the month organized by Khalel for the month of July. It was a close race to the end but my blog managed to win by a mere 7 votes.
I would like to thank everyone for their support for my humble little pink blog. I am utmost excited about this award. Lots of hard work I have put into this blog and its nice to get some recognition for it.
Thanks again everyone.
Now where is a bottle of champagne when you need one. Guess I'll just make do with my little bottle of Jim Beam that was given to me to celebrate.
Sure looks tempting.

This is C and today I will be filling in for Queer Ranter today, in a phenomenon known as "Guest Blogging." (Services available, reasonable rates, inquire within).
Fabulousity, and other Errors.
I've known QR for many many years, and I feel privileged to have witnessed some of the more pivotal stages of his life, such as his coming out, both to himself, and to the world at large. As he tells it to me, he pretty much came to an understanding of what he was, and how he was about it, and many times he's told me that coming out was the best thing that had ever happened to him.
There's a famous story we like to circulate; namely my reaction when he told me he knew he was gay.
Picture: Him in my room, on my bed. I'm on the computer, facing away from him.
QR: Hey C.... I think I'm gay.
Me: Well it's about damn time.
Since then he has definitely grown more comfortable with his identity and his new life. He's even got a better sex life than me (which is totally unfair, you queer bastard).
It is from this basic background I bring you the TRUE title of today's post, which is:
You May Be Gay, But That Doesn't Mean You Have To Act Like A Bitch.
Yes, I'm looking at you, you flamboyant Diva with your pink shirts and your bag obsession and your perfume and your personal grooming. Don't think I don't know what you're up to. You call yourself my friend, but when my back is turned, I know you're secretly tweezing.
I mean for gods sake, he uses the word fabulous in conversation. You may think 'well what's wrong with fabulous, it's a perfectly acceptable adjective' but the guy pronounces all three syllables. Fab Beau Lus.
It's like he's attempting to become gayer and gayer as time goes on. I'm pretty sure at least some of it is on purpose; things like dating guys and caring about your appearance is pretty normal, but this man owns a t-shirt with the following print:
Taste my Nuts!
I'm fucking serious.
The subtitle: A Salty Snack is in My Sack.
I may be a zero on the queer scale, I may be 100% heterosexual, I may like girls very very much, but I do NOT go around with T-shirts that advertise the contents of my testicles. Imagine if a girl were to walk around with 'Bonk me hard enough and these puppies will lactate in eight months' printed across her chest. Some things are just not POLITE.
Have I mentioned his 'tendency' to be naked in my presence?
Seriously. True story.
I went to his place, because I consider him to be my friend (although I'm putting this up for review sometime soon) and he answers the door by opening it just a tiny fraction. This is normal. Mosquitoes.
He says 'oh hey. Come in' and he's wearing a towel.
Seriously. What the fuck.
'Why aren't you wearing any pants?'
'Not bothering.'
...
I haven't even gotten to the things he says in polite company. He can be anywhere, sitting next to anyone, and somehow a reference to penises or anal sex will come into the picture and I'm left trying to hide my face in the mashed potatoes.
I don't know why I even bother. QR, if you're reading this, Stop Acting Like Such A Bitch. At the very least, if you're going to keep doing it, stop doing it in front of me so I can pretend I still have decent friends who won't embarrass me at every turn.
And no, I will not lend you Deathly Hallows when it comes out. SO THERE.

Today is definitely my day despite the ever more noticing eye bags and dark circles forming around my eyes from the lack of sleep I've been getting since last week. Busy weekends meeting people and all is taking a toll on me but its all good since I'm leaving soon back to campus anyways. Enough about that, back to my fabulous day that I had today.
Work was really boring today with nothing to do except clerical work. I spent half the time trying to stay awake due to the lack of sleep on Monday night. Then came lunch time and I checked my email from my phone. Oh a comment by Khalel, what a pleasant surprise. I thought it was just another comment then this popped up.
G* Spot Award
Gasp! Me nominated as one of the G* Spot Finalist!
Beyond my wildest dreams that my little fabulous queer blog would be nominated. A little recognition is good for the amount of effort I try to make this blog oh-so-fabulous. I'll leave it to the readers to decide if this blog is worthy of the best blog of the month.
Now the most juicy juicy part of the post. I got a new bag! Its from Zara and it's only RM130! So cheap and I love the bag so much. It's so fabulously fabulous. It was love at first sight. I fell in love with it when I first lay my eyes on it yesterday. I didn't get it yesterday cause I was worried that it wouldn't go with all my outfits (yes I was being a real woman about the bag).
So today, I dragged la faghag to Zara, KLCC and asked for her opinion. We couldn't find it at first and I remembered it being the last bag on display but I forgotten how the bag looked like (I couldn't believe it myself). Searched high and low for it but couldn't find it. Then Sam came to the rescue. He spotted it being displayed behind the cashier.
My lovely bag~~~
I am saved!
Immediately got the bag from the shelf and held it like Gollum, "My precious...".
As if I need anything else to embrace my fagness, this bag will serve as a beacon to lost fag souls in the sea of heterosexuals. Come my fags, come to me. Hehehhee.
I LOVE my bag!

There is a website imposing as my blog with a similar blog address that I wasn't even aware of until Alex told me about it. Like those websites that has the address of a very popular site but the address is misspelled intentionally hoping that visitors would type the right typo to get into the other site instead.
This is such case except I think they took the wrong blog address to impersonate. Meet Impersonator Site.
Are you freaking kidding me?!
QueerRant a Bible studies and Information Site?! How does that work? I couldn't believe it at first... Its too weird to be true. Guessed they just take any blogger address and transfer visitors to their site. I find this rather disturbing...
*juk juk juk
"May God Bless Your Soul", was what McDave said when he opened it...
I guess you guys can call me Padre and we'll do confessions. *grin

There I was chit chatting with Mervin? Bervin? Belvin? Oh right M5lvin. Yes chatting with him yesterday and he passed me Gary - Superman (you can listen to it in his blog) that I requested in an attempt to spam his chatbox. I'm so addicted to that song. Its so catchy. I love it. Thanks Melvin. Then I was checking where did my blog visitors came from and I saw the same keyword again, Renoma Underwear. So I clicked it and found another blog that was linked to this keyword.
Its called Underwear Malaysia.
*click
*read, read, read
*gasp
*ooooo
I literally combed the whole archive to see more. He's like The Ultimate Guide to all that is Underwear. He even got pictures of underwear waistbands taken from his hand phone camera from the looks of it. I'm in awe. I should start doing that.
Heheh. Yep people, tuck in that shirt or I'm gonna shoot what's under it.
Actually, I'm threaten by this blogger. He's seen (perhaps owns) more underwear than me. Time to go shopping and scouring for more waistbands. Hehehehe.

Ohoi lads.
I'm off to the land up north where food are bountiful and men are abundant.
Well I'm off to Penang today with la faghag and my other three faghags (yes I have a truckload full of faghag), for my fag roomie's sister's wedding.
Be back Sunday night.
So stay tune.

Ever wondered how random people found your blog? I have and have been keeping an eye on it through my hit counter and my Nuffnang as well. Its rather interesting as to how random people found my blog. One obvious option is blog hopping from one blog to another. This is mostly the case for random and known people.
But the interesting thing is when it is not through blog hopping but through search engine, mostly Google. I've seen weird searches that somehow lead them into my blog. I've even tried it but it didn't even appeared on the first page of the search result. Search keywords like Renoma Underwear... I know I wrote a fair few of posts that involves Renoma underwear but when I Google it, its no where near any of the top ten search results.
Speaking of Google. Have you tried to Google your full name? I have and it kinda freaked me out because there's one person who matches my name entirely. *gasp He was a headmaster in a school and it talked about his achievements and stuff like that. The catch is, he is dead for quite sometime now... Quite the shock when I read it.
La faghag has tried to Goggle her name before too but the result was, I don't know if its as bad as mine. Her result was a hooker with the same name as her. Hehehe.
Gotta love Goggle. Expect the unexpected search results from them.

To all moms out there,
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
After yesterday's birthday celebration, McDave and I went to KLCC to buy a cake to celebrate Mother's Day. We went to a bakery shop in Isetan called Miki Ojisan No Mise which sells cheese cake and the like. I would have bought something from Sun Moulin but the cakes were too big for just the three of us to eat and they were a little pricey for my liking.The cake that we bought was actually quite nice. Its not like the usual cheese cake that we eat. Its only the bottom layer that is cheese and the top is cream and sponge cake. So its not overbearing of cheese, its just nice and its not sickeningly sweet either.
Ain't it nice?
In conjunction to Mother's Day celebration, I got my first advertiser advertising. Yey~~~ I'm so happy. Thank you Pensonic for choosing this fabulous blog in your advertising campaign.
