I am Danny Foo

Arnold Schwarzenegger is the Governator

I don’t mind the 80s or 90s cartoon style like Swat Kats, Captain Planet and others. But seriously, did they have to stick a name during the era too? Couldn’t they have come up with something cooler for this millennium other than, Governator? -_-!!!

Arnold Schwarzenegger aka The Terminator aka former California governor is returning to the TV, as a cartoon. I suppose by animating himself, he intends to immortalize his legacy further. Either that, or he’s milking himself as much as he can.

After watching the trailer on Mashable then on YouTube, I feel it’s going to be rather boring. Not to mention, all the coolness they’re forcing into the cartoon, feels very obvious they’re aiming to make a buck from the toys they’re going to create. Notice his many armor suits, eyewear transformation and Harley turned Tron-ish motorcycle.

At least Ben 10 has a somewhat cool story going for it, plus the characters are what kids relate to in the cartoon. Seriously think the cartoon could have been planned better.

I wonder what our Malaysian kids would think of the Governator.

I am Neither woman Nor cat

Proof have shown to be famous online, you either have to be a woman or, a cat?!

I’ve got to give the cats that because even I admit, this video was uber cute even without the sound on. LOL! And if you want to laugh hard, listen to the voice-over. ROFL!

Okay, so I don’t have a pair of boobs and don’t intend to tape up myself to give me a cleavage, nor can I own a cat with my dogs. But here’s what I guess I can do.

Ariel bought the pair the of cat gloves when we were in Singapore for The Lion King. It cost SGD15 a glove from Otaku House in Suntec City Mall. At the same time, I also bought myself a hat which I’m not sure which anime it’s from but it looked cute, so yeah.

We brought them along to Ariel’s birthday celebration for all friends to wear and pose. It was a really great addition to the celebration and I guess this why themed parties can be so much fun. 🙂

My liang po po

When my grandmother passed away roughly 5 years ago, I was furthering my studies in Melbourne. I got one of those calls, from my Dad in Malaysia telling me not to worry and I didn’t have to return to Malaysia. Many thoughts crossed my mind, but I just said okay and found friends to console during this period.

My popo is always watching over me

I notice half the time, my dreams are visualized as I’m about to wake up and yesterday was one those times. As much as it was me worried about work, and being stressed it, the last bit of my dream left me awoken in an emotional state.

The last bit was arms wrapping me from behind and a whisper from an assuring voice I recognized very well, my grandmother. While others have their passed relatives shared 4D numbers with them, my grandmother just said:

Don’t worry, everything will be okay.

I woke up in a state of tears. Not only because I loved and missed my grandmother very much, it really gave me the feeling she’s always watching me.

Thanks popo.

Does Justin Bieber look like Lim Kok Wing?

While walking in 1Utama, we saw the TuneTalk installation nearby the GSC escalators. It was a large SIM card with hair on it and I kinda guessed who it was, with all the radio airtime shouting about it. So, I turned to Ariel and asked her, who does it remind you of?

tunetalk 1utama installation

Her answer was, Lim Kok Wing. *stone* And looking at it longer, I finally saw the resemblance too, somewhat. LOL!

I thought hard if I should post this because I don’t want to be a victim of useless implications, but we’re not the first who thought this – I checked. 😛

Now, stare at it long, picture the face there. And I hope this wipes off all your Justin Bieber memories. Muahhahahahha!

Chronicles of Not so Life Changing events

Okay. Lots have happened since I last posted. Here’s what I remember from my spaced out world.

Strudels appreciation party

I got an invitation to the Strudels part to appreciate it’s current customers and business relations. And I guess you can call myself lucky for having a friend in Strudels who thought of me and my desire for yummy food – I devoured mostly salmon. LOL!

This was the same event Esty attended and I didn’t walk up to her to break the ice because it was only a lingering thought of familiarity when I saw her. Besides, I’ve not personally met her and I saved myself the embarrassment – just in case.

Visit Esty’s blog to indulge in the food shots she took. Looking at them just made me missed my salmon. 😛

My birthday

On this day, I pretty much gave work a miss and spent the rest of it indulging and enjoying myself. Me and Ariel popped into Empire Subang because we’ve not explored the place. Ending up in Serai to have lunch, which left my thought of the food to be like; Madam Kwan’s. But the food there is seriously not bad.

Later in the night, I met up with more friends to dine at Tenji in Solaris. If you hadn’t known, I’m quite the Japanese (insert: food) lover. So if a Japanese place is suppose to have yummy food, you can bet that it’ll be on my must eat places. And that night, I seriously devoured a lot of salmon – practically cleared out 2 rows when it came out.

WebcampKL

My passion for the web is to also support events I know would lead to a greater cause. Ever since WebcampKL started last year, I’ve met and listened to great speakers. I don’t qualify as one of it yet because mine was a light hearted subject on Voltron. I can’t help being an 80s kid. 🙂

Friend’s birthday

We celebrated a friend’s birthday at Sen Tsuru, Kota Damansara. Again, it’s another Japanese restaurant, buffet ala carte style. Different from Tenji since this buffet is only based on their ala carte menu. Nonetheless, we still got to indulge in salmon – what did I tell you. In addition, we got to try new and yummy dishes which we’ve now recognized this place.

Our party moved to Sunway Giza with some ice cream cake and coffee later. Oh, with some present exchanging. As for the presents received, the birthday girl got a useful tool. I’ll leave it as that.

SMCKL on Social Media ROI

SMCKL or Social Media Club Kuala Lumpur is an event covering topics related to social media. The recent topic was on ROI with social media so I pulled Hawk along to attend this. But our worries became a reality the moment the speaker mentioned along the lines, “you’ll find it in our book”. Die.

The Lion King music at Marina Bay Sands

I’ve heard about The Lion King musical and I’ve watched Cats too, when they were in Malaysia. But having a strong feeling The Lion King won’t make it to our shores, me and Ariel made plans to head down to Singapore and catch it.

The show was well-worth paying SGB188 and the costume detailing was something not to be missed – cheetah scene still looks a little wrong to me. Since we got back, we’ve been telling all our friends it’s a show not to be missed – it’s on until May 31, 2011. Catch it if you can!

By the way, the theater isn’t located at the Marina Bay Sands hotel. I’m not sure what do they call the building with the retail outlets, theater and eateries. But it’s at the building opposite the Marina Bay Sands.

Besides the hotel’s weird spaceship top design, I was captivated and inspired by the exterior element of the building. Look out for shimmering wall which creates a water motion when the wind blows in the day and night.

Nerf Tour 2 at Bukit Jalil park

Besides passion for the web, I want Simpleet to be a supporter of passionate people. This was how we came to support the NERF Community in Malaysia. After attending the first event organized by them, I believed we could extend a hand to support a healthy activity which not only kids but young adults took part.

After some discussion and advice given to Brien, he took it on himself to make the event more successful. He’s managed to also get Hasbro Malaysia to be part of this. Job well done and we’re proud to be part of this event supporting passionate NERF players in Malaysia.

Taking ownership and initiation

I’ve also become the new president of my business network group; BNI Radiant, for dynamic and young-at-heart business owners.

The universe may have been working for me as I feel myself taking more ownership and initiation to what I do and can do.

Hence, I want to better commit myself to whatever I’m engaged in now; blogging, events, social media, work and whatever else I can do without hesitation. It’s not soon or later but now.
