The Other Uses of Condom

First, watch this video . . .


If y'all aren't Chinese speaking like me y'all probably just say "What the fudge is he talkin about?" and "WTF !!! Is that condom on that microphone !"

Yep,right. That's an actual condom over a microphone held by a Chinese reporter.

As a matter of fact the practice of using condom on top of a microphone is pretty standard, to serve as a protection for the mic from any moisture, as you can see in the video the man is reporting about the weather and it was clearly wet there with all the waves crashing and stuffs, so better be safe than sorry.

Also in Vietnam, they use condom to protect M16 (that's a name of a gun) from getting wet.

Never Lie In An Interview

I had a job interviews last week (after like 20 applications !). I think I did a great job for a first interview but I screwed up on the 'hard skill' question, so advice for job seeker out there, do study everything about the job you're applying.

In the first interview I was being too honest. They ask me if I'm willing to be relocated and I straight away answered them that I prefer to be near my hometown which I think is not the answer they're looking for but on the positive side they thought my English was good and I am actually friendly.

Then I thought I shouldn't be too honest for the next interview and when the second interviewer (in the second interview) asked me if I played sport I was hesitant to answer at first because I don't like sports that much. But I said 'yes' anyway and he asked what kinda sports.Guess what my answer is... - freakin' ping pong a.k.a. table tennis.

I thought I can't get away with that but he replied with "Oh great, we need someone to teach these people about ping pong and you can be the best candidate". I was like "I'm screwed"... Y'all know I don't play ping pong !  ! !

But, anyway I should get the interview result within this week, wish me luck, I gotta watch some ping pong vids on YouTube, y'all know, just in case...

Confession of The thegossipgeek

"When you turn, or start over, it means you're leaving something behind" 
-Jessica, True Blood- 
A long time ago I made my policy which is to not write anything personal in my blog because of the unknown circumstances that might happened as a result of the post, but I think this one should be an exception.
First of all let me tell you about Jessica, she's a character from True Blood series. Although she looked like a good girl, she's constantly struggling with some bad urges inside her which is affecting her daily life.
But I'm not here to tell you about Jess, I'm here to talk about something that has been disturbing me for years because I have done something terrible which is kinda unforgivable.
I have a conflict with a person, I have been trying to find a way to settle this problem but the other side doesn't seem to care.
The other person decided to get over this thing and walk away, leaving me and it seems pretty easy for 'em.
I haven't jump to that yet, because I believe I can sort this thing out but I can't do it alone. So what should I do, should I just forget about it and start my new life and just forget that we have been friend for a long time.
Obviously, I can do that, I mean I can't push 'em to be my friend again, right? But, I don't think it's easy maybe because I'm scared that if I didn't make this right the person is gonna think bad about me. Isn't that selfish? I mean, I need to settle this problem just to clean my tainted reputation?
I'm fine if they want to isolate me, but I just want to find a proper way to end this thing.
If I decided to start a new life, that means I'm erasing them from my memories, them are those who I think were parts of my bad memories. It ain't gon' be easy.
I think it will be selfish if I decided not to let them go, so from now on, I'm going to let them go and wish them well, right now, that is the best thing I can possibly do.
P/S: Sorry readers, I know I've been quite personal and emotional lately :-)

What's Cooking ?

I've never been a big fan of cooking show but add some reality show flare to it and I'm in !

Star World (astro CH711) had become this trashy channel that I think has been encouraging women to be some materialistic vain person (same goes to you DIVA Universal ! Give me Hallmark back !).


"Nice logo but Ke$ha? Really?"

Anyway, I have few favorite shows on that channel, one of it is Hell's Kitchen which is currently on its 9th season (US) and the 8th season was on Star World.

If y'all don't know what Hell's Kitchen it, don't worry just Google it, it's a cooking competition show hosted by mouthy billionaire celebrity chef, Gordon Ramsay.

I enjoyed watching this particular season because of the casts, from the Jersey Shore-ish Vinny to the bitchy Sabrina but my personal favorite is of course, Boris, cause he reminded me of someone.

"Yes that someone sweats like pig too"

I've watched the entire season and restrained myself from checking Wikipedia for spoilers and I was glad [SPOILER ALERT] that Nona won over Russell because personally, I think Russell is an uptight person and you don't wanna go near an uptight person.

Yes, this show also gave me inspiration to learn a little bit about cooking and stuff, yep, yeah that's bout it and before I go just want to informed you guys that Masterchef Malaysia is coming to town ! Yay !!! Malaysia itself got few big name in the culinary industry, yes he's been in Oprah too ! That's of course is our very own, Chef Wan and I admitted that I have a little bit of shock when I knew that he's married with two children.
