Blog Ads Are Paying Off!

I must say, activating my blog ads is becoming quite a profitable decision after all. Although the stats show that there has only been 2 clicks on my blog site (of which one of them I click on it myself), I have actually benefit from it! Here's how.

While replying a reader's comments one day on my blog, I saw the advertisement you see here on the comments page of my blog. So I click on it to find out more, and found out that Clinique was giving away free skin care kit in their skin care challenge. So I sign up for it :) Got my free kit that gave me great skin for 4 days, and join the skin care challenge round 1. And as luck may have it, I just won myself S$110 worth of 2 weeks trail skin care product! And that is just cool! Will update you again if I made it further into the challenge :) Who knows, maybe I'll get to attend the free make over workshop, and you'll see me on the runway soon at Vivocity :P Wish me Luck!

Canon Digital IXUS 80 IS For SALE! - SOLD

As I'm not using the new camera I won from a photo competition, I've decided to sell it. And as usual, I always post what I am selling online here in this blog first so that my readers get special privileged to the sale! So available for the next 12 hours before it goes on sale on a public site, I'm currently selling my new Canon Digital IXUS 80 IS.

I'm selling it inclusive of a 4GB SD card (Toshiba SDHC), leather casing and a mini tripod. Total package value is SGD $429 (as quoted by NLB, refer here)

Steve McCurry Photo Exhibition

One of my favorite photographer's photo will be on exhibition at the Singapore Asian Civilizations Museum from 19 Jun 2009 till 19 July 2009. If you would like to see real quality photography, do visit the exhibition. Admission to the exhibition is FREE! But I'm not too sure if they will charge you for the admission to the museum. Either way, I think it's worth every penny of it! Why? Just check out Steve McCurry's website here. (Note: some of the photos shown might be a bit disturbing to some people)

Anyway, here is the official poster. Click to view it in full size.

Bincho-tan (びんちょうタン)

Before I head to Japan in May, I downloaded 12 episodes of Bincho-tan and didn't managed to watch them (yet!). I managed to finish all 12 episodes of it last weekend, and really really love it!

Basically, it's a story about a girl who stays in the mountain all alone, but is never lonely. Her life is simple, and she live each day to the fullest, appreciating everything that comes her way. It's a nice and simple story about nothing, and the drawing is SUPER CUTE! And it's inspiring to me. When I retire, that's the kind of lifestyle I'd like to live by :)

Saving Gaia

Ladies and gentlemen, here's another "lobang" (opportunity) for you to win great prizes if you're handy with your cam-corder! Mediacorp has starting their Saving Gaia campaign, and they have a video contest where you can win Citizen Eco-Drive watches! Check out the link of citizen and drool! I absolutely adore Eco-Drive watches! You would too if you own one! In my pathetic attempt to motivate you, here's a photo of my 7 year old EcoDrive :P She's a beauty isn't she. The whole watch could collapse, but the glass will forever be perfect :)

You have one month to work on that video if you are interest. Deadline 30th Jun 2009! I absolutely dread making video clips as it's so time consuming to edit it. But for an Eco-Drive Watch, hmmm, maybe I'll reconsider :)

If you are not interested in making a video, you can also win a EviroSax bag by submitting your pledge to save the earth. Hurry, only first 3000 pledge will get the free bag! But saving the earth has no expiry date :) Will post more environmentally entry in this blog soon.

World Environment Day celebration 5th June 2009. Wear green to show your support!

Post Note:
Hmm, one day after I posted this, I can't seems to find back the video contest link. And the Mediacorp website seems to have change it's content! Was it just my imagination? Or is the information on the site unreliable? Let's give it a week and see...
