A Kewl Malaysian Ad By www.Easyrenew.Com.My. Worth Checking…

I love DIGI ads and I am not saying this because they're paying me BAGS OF CASH (Ppphhttthhhh...I wish!) but I have a feeling that I should've studied Mass Communication or Advertising because...Mass Comm is much more 'ME' than something like LAW. It took me four whole years of working in a bank to figure out that I like legal stuff as much as I like cute creatures like, you know...cockroaches, leeches....lizards. Yeah.... I wish Malaysia had more creative talent but then again, maybe we do but have been left untapped...as can clearly be seen from the ad below. I am deeply, ALWAYS, appreciative about people who try that much harder to make their commercials different. A commercial is an incredibly important part of branding and frankly speaking, with youtube and all those online video sites, you don't even need the television anymore. And besides, you get all those RTM ads there. I hate RTM advertisements and 'commercial service advertisements' - and I am quite sure a lot of you are as well. Fans of RTM ads, raise your hand! The 'quality' of the ads are so apparent that you have this urge to retch within the first few seconds of it coming on. In fact, I can instantly tell that it's one of those lame advertisements the moment the MUSIC comes on. No need to wait until the whole thing.....sad case. Anyway, I always bum around in youtube for inspirational advertisements and it was merely per chance that I 'bumped' into a local advertisements. Albeit, it's a rather raw one but I thought the ad was really kewl in that you can see that the people who came up with it put a little bit more thought into it. Click the ad and watch on.... What made this advertisement interesting is that it makes you wonder, that's number one. Number two, it's trying to deliver a very clear message and they keep you hanging on for the seconds that they have. Thirdly, it relates to everyone of us...and not some hogwash idea that someone cooked up in the toilet. Fourth, well...the guy in there is kinda cute. :-) (sorry, can't help it) AND I hate the sound that comes on whenever something goes wrong with your PC....the 'twang' sound. THAT really kept me watching.... :-) Mmmm.....never heard of www.easyrenew.com.my before this but I think deserves a check. Being the kepoh that I am, I went in a little bit, poked around and saw that they say that you can renew your car road tax within three minutes wor....I didn't know Malaysia got such a thing wan, you know. Gwai-Low countries, I've heard lah.....but if they have something here like this, it would definitely solve a lot of headache for me (and you) esp when dealing with those slow-motion folks behind the counter. :-) I went in and check and viola! Actually very fast leh...maybe you can try too...

Stargazer - Stretch Those Sides

I have been doing this pose, part of Cosmic Dance (a type of yoga, I am assuming), called Stargazer pose without knowing it is called Stargazer's pose a lot in the past. You see, sometimes, I don't follow the rules and come up with my own stretches and poses. It is fun. I have on some music, nice, soothing music or just anything I can click on. Then I go with the flow, letting my hair down. Just moving to the music...and that is when I come up with the above Stargazer's pose. This pose really stretches your sides. Keep your eyes on the outstretched hand if you are keeping it pointed to the top, as if you are waving or connecting to a higher energy from the Universe. Your arms will ache a little but hey, toned arms, here you come! :-) For those who want a bigger stretch, it is safe to slowly and gently move the lifted hand towards your back...don't overdo it, listen to your body's complaints and respect it. You don't have to prove anything to anyone, reme...

Maid Side-Kick

I was kind of a little sad when I read the news about this - there will be no live-in Indonesian maids in Malaysia anymore . There are pros and cons to having a live-in maid, as with everything else, but for us, we enjoyed more pros than cons. Back then, when my kids were little, we brought in a family of maids to help with...well, just about everything, and we were like two families merged into one. They ate what we ate, we sleep, they sleep, we shop, they shop, they joke, we laugh, we joke, they laugh...for me, the maid I hired was more like a sister and side-kick to me. For that few years, I was dependent on her to mind-read my schedule and when I need or don't need help. She picked things up quickly and we ended up having lots of moments whereby we were in sync. Today, two of them are on my Facebook and we were gleefully chatting over Facebook Messenger since they've just discovered the wonders of the Internet and Social Media. Since we were more like partners in crim...

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked what’s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it is…. If you say ‘ reading ’, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ….) and I also love mystery novels but it’s not the first on the list. If you say ‘ playing the piano ’; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), there’s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. It’s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ‘ writing ’; You’ve got to be kidding me! You mean I don’t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ‘ playing with my kids ’; Yea...
