Now there is a new flu going on in Mexico and now spread to the United States. The new strain of flu that has killed up to 60 people in Mexico and infected eight in the US (CA and TX). The news also reported that there’s evidence of possible human-to-human transmission going on. So, please be careful!! A normal detector cannot detect this type of flu. You have to be very cautious.

April 22th is the day which is chosen to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth”s environment.

 

 

So… what are you planning to do to show your appreciation for the Earth? For me, I bought a new plant, called “Split leaf.” I will have it in my dining room. I got this plant only $10 from the flea market.

My cousin asked me if I had ever tried “Fried Coke.” I was like.. What??? What are you talking about? And, then she sent me pictures and the story about it. Whoa… it’s pretty amazing how the inventor, Abel Gonzales, Jr. come up with a very creative dessert. He introduced Fried Coke in 2006 at the State Fair in Texas.

 

 

I also found the recipe on the Internet. (Source)

 

Ingredients:

2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder

Instruction:

2. Mix in eggs and Coca Cola and stir until a smooth batter forms.
3. Preheat oil in a skillet or deep fryer.
4. Pour 1/3 cup of batter into a funnel or turkey baster and in a circular motion pour batter into the hot oil.

Now, it’s your turn to try it out!!

I would like to write a quick review on my BlackBerry Curve 8900 or Javelin. I have been using it for about two weeks now. I still cannot find anything that I don’t like about it. I absolutely love everything about it. I have been downloading several program and themes to pimp my Curve the want.

 

Here is a quick list of what I like or what I can do with the Curve:

1. I can online 24/7 on my phone.

2. Email, SMS, and MMS work like a charm.

3. I can fully customize on the ring tone.

4. Alarm clock is very useful – there is an option to choose not to alarm on the weekend (How smart is that!).

5. Speakerphone is awesome – loud and clear.

6. Media player and music player are not bad at all for the business phone. I can watch movies too.

7. I can watch YouTube through either Wifi or EDGE with no problem and delay.

8. I don’t have any problem with keyboard. It’s pretty comfortable for me.

9. Battery life is good. It can last for two day and I’m a heavy user.

10. The resolution on the screen is incredible. 

 

The list can go on and on… hahaha

 

Anyhow, the website that I found very resourceful and  useful is CrackBerry. If you have a BlackBerry, you definitely need to bookmark this website. Let me know if you have any question regarding Curve 8900!!

Hello Kitty Tokidoki Theme (Screen captured)

  

My current theme (Screen captured)

“Tokidoki” means “sometimes” in Japanese, and also refers to the Japanese-inspired lifestyle brand created in 2005 by Italian artist Simone Legno and his business partners Pooneh Mohajer and Ivan Arnold (Source: Wiki).

Tokidoki Characters

Tokidoki has produced so many things, such as toys, accessories, footwear, clothes, etc. Why has it become so popular? I think it’s because of his unique creativity inspired by street lifestyle and fashion and combined with Japanese illustration influences. Each character has his/her own personality and vivid colors.

Many companies have been collaborating with Tokidoki to produce special collections, such as Onitsuka Tiger shoes, Hello Kitty, Le Sportsac, etc. They are son pricey, but ADORABLE and COLLECTABLE!!

 

 

For more Tokidoki, please visit the official website. You can download wallpapers and screen-saver from the web. Plus, you can shop there too.

 

What do you think?

Here is the latest MV from 2PM – Again and Again song under “Time for Change” album.  Awesome!!

 

 

Everybody has CHANGED!! Umm I’m not sure about Nichkhun’s new hairstyle though… What’s up with that!

2PM has just released a teaser for upcoming second album, “Again and Again”, in April.

 

 

Ohhh.. it’s going to be a lot of cool moves and choreography.

 

Here is another preview YouTube video. It says that new single debut is 04.16.2009

 

This is real! I have read or seen pictures of this type of card skimmer, but that was from forwarded email. I know it is still happening in Thailand. It seems this kind of criminal incident happens everywhere! So, for those ATM card users, please be careful.

 

I found a story about a guy caught the ATM card skimmer attached before the real ATM card reader. This card skimmer will read your ATM card and record all the information into a flash memory attached in the back.  It happened at a local WaMu bank. Please see pictures below.

 

 

 

When inserting your ATM card to the machine, please be careful. If you see that it looks suspicious or it looks like the card reader is not belong there, contact a cop and notify that local bank immediately.
