If you know me, you'd know that I'm not able to live without my social media. Obviously the iPhone is a big part of my life, but then, I also can't live without the other stuffs, like Twitter, Facebook, Foursquare and many many more other social media sites, but most of all, my Twitter. I tweet like crazy and there's nothing anyone can do to stop me (so to speak!), as I believe in the freedom of speech. As long as I don't spread malicious rumors about anyone, I don't see how "voicing" what I feel is wrong.
I was completely a-okay with my little joys of tweeting and facebook-ing and checking-in on-the-go. And honestly, I wasn't hurting anyone in terms of "revealing descriptive malicious/fake information". But when someone tweets/blogs/facebooks about people like me who are into social media and asking questions like "why you people like to be on facebook, etc?", first of all, ask yourself. After all, you did ask the question on FACEBOOK/BLOG/TWITTER right? Doesn't that then, make you a person suitable to answer that question?
I honestly am uncertain if those posts/tweets were meant for me, per say, but I am still super offended! Basically, what this person is "saying", is that, it is wrong for us to socialize via these media platforms. Do correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that I spend relatively enough time OUTSIDE my social media circle but I also maintain my social media life. If you think that you're not spending enough time with the people you want to outside your social media cycle, don't lump all of us in one group and then blame your bad choices on people like me who didn't even bother to question your behavior toward people!
More importantly, my joy of critisizing hypocrites. WHY in the world would you ask these questions (ie. how social media is affecting our lives) USING SOCIAL MEDIA platforms? Like dude! Is that ridiculous or what? You're saying how bad social media is, and yet, YOU ARE USING social media! Like WHY? Why would you ridicule yourself in such a way? I honestly dislike hypocrites, but sometimes, you guys are just too funny! Even if you wanna be hypocrites, don't be so silly and let me catch you la! :P
Thing is, I am very into what I do, what I've been doing, and will continue to do. I'm not going to stop just because you have "opinions" and I'm not going to apologize for what I have been doing and in my use of social media tools. Call me whatever you want, but I believe that as long as I don't judge you, you don't have a right to judge me too.

Day[9]'s interview on Forbes :)
As some of you may know, I once stood up very strongly when someone mocked Sean "Day[9]" Plott. How strongly you ask? That's for you to determine!
Anyway, the reason why I'm blogging this is cos I've always admired what Day9 does, and always will. All the more when I saw how tired he was during MLG Raleigh and YET, he managed to pull through the ENTIRE event! I was so proud of him. At one point, which if I'm not mistaken was a few days ago, his internet was either down or very bad. He was so so upset. I wouldn't say that he didn't curse at his telco company cos he did (haha!), but he tried to pre-record his daily and he went to stream it later! I thought that that was very cool of him and most importantly, very dedicated of him!

P/S: The video at the end of the interview, if you do have 2 hours to spare, please watch. It made me cry. :')

I thought that that was very cool of him and most importantly, very dedicated of him!
So, I really do admire him. Story time!!!!
Once upon a time, someone from somewhere called Day[9] "overweight and pathetic". Calling Sean "no outside life. Has he even seen a girl?" and all other nonsense. Even going as far as to say this, and I quote, "people who play online games have no social life". I admit, I don't really have THAT much time to play, but I love watching people play. On top of that, I play on the ladder which I have strong intentions on climbing. So, whatever the someone said, obviously and clearly upset me, so I retaliated and called him "NARROW-MINDED" on my blog. The post has since been removed as although it was targetted only at ONE person, I had failed to control my anger and I had insulted this person's community. Anyway, the whole entire incident only made me get compulsively obsessed with how HUGE the StarCraft 2 community is growing to, and how many people have been affected by this game, me included.
So here's where I boast like CRAZY about the fact that Sean "Day[9]" Plott has been interviewed by...... FORBES MAGAZINE!
So, before anything else, I apologize, but to whoever who commented on who, what, when and how Day[9] is and should be, this is for you.
Day[9] is on FORBES.
Are you?! :)
I honestly don't think that I'm a mean person. But DON'T ever step on my tail. You never know what you'll be getting yourself into. :) Read his interview and enjoy! This will be especially enjoyable to e-gamers, LIKE ME <3

Nice Thing Today: 6
Sorry. I know this has been WAYYYYY overdue, but the most recent nice thing that happened to me is that, I spent almost 4 hours with the bestie, Evonne Siew!
We both went to ChicPop cos I'm the meanie bestie and made her teman me to this marketplace and I was mean enough to make her teman me there. But she was lovely enough to teman me there :) I LOVE HER SO MUCH! Anyway, she will be leaving on 2nd Sept to China and I really hope by some miraculous work of faith, I will be there sending her off to the airport. Anyway, we had a lot of fun, talking, hanging, spent a lot of time TALKING :P And she even prompted me to get my polaroid camera which, to be honest, I didn't really need but I'm SUPER GLAD I bought one :) I'm very proud although I was saving up to buy the semi-pro DSLR, and now I can't!
Well, the best part was just spending time lepaking with her. I love her so much and although we lead very diffrerent lives, somehow when we get together, it's like we just saw each other yesterday. We're THAT comfortable with each other. Yes, I will miss her a lot, but I also know that when she gets back and we meet each other again, NOTHING will be different :) We'll still be able to update each other on the ups and downs of our lives and yes, we're that good friends.
So here, I wish you ALL THE BEST, my dear Evonne, and please come back soon! I will be missing you like CRAZY! Have an amazing time there, and don't forget to miss me ok? LOVE YOU!

Question of The Day: Education
Monday's QOTD was about being engaged in your education by Dato' Freida Pilus, posted by @motivationMY. I was very intriguied by the question and I was wondering, what did I learn from my education?
To be very honest, since I turned 11 (because that's when my grades started slipping), I was already aware that to my parents, I wasn't doing "good enough" because I would either get a low B or C grades for my exams with the exception of English. Then I turned to Maths. That's why I'm proud to say, I got A's for English, Maths and Add Maths. Everything else, I would either get a low B or C or when it comes to Geography/Sejarah, expect lower. But what I've realized since I was young was, I didn't like studying. Regardless of what my parents called me, I would refuse to study. I didn't want to be studious and I did want a normal life where I could go shopping, hang out with friends, and do basically everything I wanted. I also had friends who were the COMPLETE opposite of me. All they ever did was study. This carried on all the way till I graduated from SPM.
This changed a teeny bit when I enrolled into Cempaka College for my A-Levels. I knew then that education was important because of what Cempaka believed in. But for some reason, I didn't want to "do my best". Then I met the best teacher I've ever had in my entire studying life. Mrs. Wong Siew Chin, my Chemistry teacher. She was an AMAZING teacher and got me an A for my Chemistry. I only paid attention to Chemistry and obviously neglected all my other subjects. I was very happy that I managed to graduate but I've always wondered, what if I put in more effort?
Then I went into uni. I was enrolled into university and I was to do a degree in Accountings. With no offense to my university, those were the WORST 3 years of my studying life and I learned the meaning of education. I loved assignments because I would be able to research out of my powerpoint printed notes, and I got to write which I loved. My "groupmates" would take this opportunity to dump all their work to me, as I usually did all the editing and the compilation. What sucks even more, is that they would use it under the pretense that "their English is bad, so why do double-work?". I didn't complain, but I did slack in my studies because I would spend more time on assignments than studying. The only part I enjoyed in my uni-life was that I was a strong part of the Dance Club. That was it. Aside from that, I was DYING to get out of there. And I realized one thing. Lecturers gave out "tips" to their students. Saying which chapter would be covered and which won't. I even had one class where the teacher mentioned the different topics for EACH question. That is just WRONG! I mean if you asked my classmates, they were very very happy to find out that lecturers gave tips, but I knew in my head that it was wrong. I told my parents and their reactions were "How can that be?". I didn't do exceptionally well, but I did enough to obtain 2nd class honors.
I knew that it was wrong. But I also knew that I didn't have the right to say anything. But looking at where I am today, I do believe I made the right choice to not be spoonfed by my lecturers. I have many acquaintances who are on an average of similar GPAs to me who can't seem to hold a job for more than 6 months. I have acquaintances who are so scared to go out and look for a job, that they continue to study. Some choose to do ACCA full-time whilst others choose to do a new degree. I'm honestly not saying that one option is better than the other, but to be honest, I believe in growing in my career. Even if that means, taking time to choose one. I chose mine.
In today's generation, parents tend to overrate grades. Getting high grades doesn't mean that your child will be THAAAAATTTT smart! Anyone remembered the girl who got 17A's and then got kicked out of Harvard or Oxford or something like that? Embarrasing much?
Education is supposed to be engaging. Yes, test papers and examinations mean something. But not to burden the child too much either. I know of a couple of parents who puts their daughter through so much pressure, that she seems "distant" from the rest of us. While other kids are running around and playing, she's sitting in the corner doing homework or studying. It's wrong to see a child lose her childhood that way. She doesn't seem like a child anymore. It even starts to feel like she can't really fathom a proper conversation because she doesn't know how to. She only communicates to her parents and the topics of conversations are only about academics.
Education is NOT meant to be 100% academics. It's supposed to be holistic and all-rounded. Cempaka has a system of "mind, body and soul". I wish I had this sort of education. I remembered that when I got out of high school, I didn't know how to play a single sport. That really sucked. While I was in uni, I remembered that the questions on my exam papers were in bad grammar. I thought about it and I now wonder if I didn't do well because my lecturers didn't understand what I had written. It was really bad.
Children nowadays deserve better education and definitely a better system. I hope it changes soon. We should all be engaged in our education and educate the younger generation! <3

Nice Thing Today: 5
This is one of the nice things that happened to me last Tuesday.
Finished an appointment at Sunway Medical Hospital at around 6.30pm last night and got stuck in a VERY VERY bad jam, all the way back to Phileo Damansara. But then, I had my "NICE THING" to look forward to, although I was already super tired and frustrated with the traffic and all. I wasn't even feeling too well. I mean, I had a bad headache and some dizzy spells. Anyway, I reached my office at about 8pm, picked up my car, and FLEW all the way to Mid Valley where I was to meet up with Charmaine and Siew Mei :)
I had arranged for a meet up with Charmaine and Siew Mei to have dinner. Charmaine was craving Japanese so we had arranged for dinner at Sushi Zanmai. Of course I was super late, so I felt crazy bad. As if that wasn't bad enough, I had to go to the toilet really bad. But I held it in, and then went only after I said hi to them :P So we had a nice nice dinner at Sushi Zanmai. Filled our tummy with the Soft Shell Crab Maki which we all love! So we had that and talked and talked and talked. It was a really great time. Then we decided to go for dessert and we wanted to have it at Hokkaido Ichiban but it was already closed, so we detoured over to Alexis where we had amazing Pavlova and Brownie :)
We took pictures, cam-whored and all. Hahaha! It was quite funny but then we had so much fun! We poured our hearts out as well and it was really cool! Can't wait for our next outing :)
Had something nice happen to you today or one day? Do send your stories to ho.sulynn@gmail.com ! Thank you! <3

Nice Thing Today: 4
Hey! Haven't been blogging for quite a while. Sorry for that! But just wanted to update, that a nice thing which happened to me today! :)
Today, I was supposed to go to Media Prima studios for an interview. Well, obviously I wasn't the one getting interviewed :P But I was supposed to be there by 7.30am. If any of you guys lived in Cheras, you'd know about the STUPID crazy long-ass jams around the Cheras area. So I decided to leave at around 6.20am this morning, and I got to Media Prima about 6.50am-7am. I thought that I was gonna have to wait for about 30mins plus, so I decided to ronda the place and find out where is the location of the MHI studio which I was supposed to go to. Upon ronda-ing the place, I see the FlyFM booth! Obviously Prem, Hafiz and Nadia were inside doing their thing. I had heard their voices on air, but never really seen them in person. So I decided to tweet them and say, "I saw the Pagi Rock Crew". Then their reply was "you're here? wave and we'll dance for you :)"
So after I ronda-ed a bit more, I found where the MHI studio was, and even met the person who's in charge of call-time, I went back to the FlyFM booth, which was just outside the studio. I smiled and waved. They all smiled back at me and waved too :) I was so excited! Then, Nadia stands up, takes a red whiteboard marker, and writes HELLO! on the window! Hahaha! So cute cos she was trying to write mirror-image! And then, the next thing I know, they're calling me to go inside! Of course I said no, because that wouldn't be too nice, especially if my supervisor were to arrive around that time. Then, Prem walks out to actually greet me! :) He says Hi, asks me what am I doing there, etc. Basically had an actual conversation with me. But then, it was their busy time, so he couldn't really spend much time talking to me. Then I walked back to the window and took pictures of them! It was really nice of them to pose for me. Then as I am taking their picture, guess who walks out?
HUNNY MADU!
To those of you who don't know her, she's a singer/DJ! Relatively famous in the industry. She actually stops to speak to me. Have a conversation with me. Honestly, I used to think that these kind of people, DJs, celebrities, etc, would be quite unfriendly. But today, Hafiz, Prem, Nadia and Hunny proved me wrong! :) Such nice, warm and welcoming people! <3
Officially, FlyFM is my new favorite station :) Especially the Pagi Rock Crew <3
So much for my NTT! Totally made my day so much brighter! Looking forward to cheering more people up with this story! Especially since now the internet is only filled with negative media. The UK Riots, our National issues, Landslides, Earthquake warnings, etc. Sigh.
Thanks again guys! <3

Nice Thing Today: 3
I sorta blogged this but didn't click send so here is Monday's NTT :)
After work (yes, I'm already working!), I went to meet up with the boyfriend to go visit his parents. After that, we went to have dinner, just me, him and his mum at this place called "Kelantan Delights". This place is owned by a couple who introduced them to myself as "Uncle Sabri" and "Aunty Wati" :) They were not there at the place, but they asked his mum to head on over to their house to collect something. I was already very tired at the time, and was wondering to myself "OMG, how long is this gonna take?". The thoughts ended when I stepped into their beautiful home!
Their house was so big, but not the overly-grand "I HATE THIS" kind of big. It was warm, and cozy, and it was so comfortable. The house has this HUGE pond which contains many many kois which are huge!!! Their kois were very well-fed. That's for sure. And there was a swimming pool inside as well. So you can imagine how big the area of the house is. But the house was really amazingly comfy and I love how they decorated the house. It felt very homey. :)
We were sitting in the living room for quite a bit, then, Uncle Sabri said "I want to kidnap all of you for about 10-15 minutes can?". Obviously we all didn't say no, so we followed him downstairs to what seems like a party room. There was a foosball table, and a pool table and another covered up room. He told us to get into the room. When I walked in, all that was in my mind was "WOW!". IT WAS A PRIVATE CINEMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't think I'm such a jakun! I have seen private cinemas before, but they all had normal projectors is all. This one, had a HIGH DEF PROJECTOR! I witnessed 2 weddings via DVD and it was clear as the blue sky! Beautiful! And the wedding videos were of Uncle and Aunty's children. :) It was very well-done. And then, we proceeded to watch snippits of a David Foster concert. It was beautiful! The music was amazing, and the picture quality was beautiful! I cried when Ne-Yo and Charice did a BEAUTIFUL rendition of "Earth Song". Then again, I teared when I saw Michael Bolton and Seal performing a mash-up of "When a Man Loves a Woman/This is a Man's World". Beautiful music, and we stayed on so late, I didn't even notice the time. The experience was amazing cos Uncle let me sit on a reclining chair, with blanket and all! Felt so amazing! Uncle and Aunty was so hospitable and welcoming, I felt so warm inside. :) The concert was BRILLIANT! And I can't wait to either watch the whole thing or something. It was amazing. Andrea Bocelli, Katherine McPhee, Charice, Ne-Yo, BabyFace, Earth, Wind and Fire, etc! It was beautiful! I felt like I was in heaven! <3
That was an unplanned date/unpredictable. Regardless, I had a lot of fun, and I really thank Uncle Sabri and Aunty Wati for being such wonderful hosts! Also, thank you to my boyfie and his mum for taking me there! :) I really had so much fun and was so happy! Not forgetting the fact that all those songs were stuck in my head for the past 3 days! LOL! Michael Buble singing "Feeling Good" at the concert, and I was like *swwwwoooonnnnsss*! He's such an amazing singer! Beautiful voices! Oh, and Uncle Sabri was amazed that I knew who Michael Bolton was and even loved him :P I'm young at age, but old in music. This is all thanks to my mum and Aunty Mary who when I was younger, taught me Michael Bolton, Whitney Houston, Teresa Teng, Lionel Richie, etc. :)
So yeah, that was my NTT for Monday! <3 Stay cool and look beautiful!

After work (yes, I'm already working!), I went to meet up with the boyfriend to go visit his parents. After that, we went to have dinner, just me, him and his mum at this place called "Kelantan Delights". This place is owned by a couple who introduced them to myself as "Uncle Sabri" and "Aunty Wati" :) They were not there at the place, but they asked his mum to head on over to their house to collect something. I was already very tired at the time, and was wondering to myself "OMG, how long is this gonna take?". The thoughts ended when I stepped into their beautiful home!
Their house was so big, but not the overly-grand "I HATE THIS" kind of big. It was warm, and cozy, and it was so comfortable. The house has this HUGE pond which contains many many kois which are huge!!! Their kois were very well-fed. That's for sure. And there was a swimming pool inside as well. So you can imagine how big the area of the house is. But the house was really amazingly comfy and I love how they decorated the house. It felt very homey. :)
We were sitting in the living room for quite a bit, then, Uncle Sabri said "I want to kidnap all of you for about 10-15 minutes can?". Obviously we all didn't say no, so we followed him downstairs to what seems like a party room. There was a foosball table, and a pool table and another covered up room. He told us to get into the room. When I walked in, all that was in my mind was "WOW!". IT WAS A PRIVATE CINEMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't think I'm such a jakun! I have seen private cinemas before, but they all had normal projectors is all. This one, had a HIGH DEF PROJECTOR! I witnessed 2 weddings via DVD and it was clear as the blue sky! Beautiful! And the wedding videos were of Uncle and Aunty's children. :) It was very well-done. And then, we proceeded to watch snippits of a David Foster concert. It was beautiful! The music was amazing, and the picture quality was beautiful! I cried when Ne-Yo and Charice did a BEAUTIFUL rendition of "Earth Song". Then again, I teared when I saw Michael Bolton and Seal performing a mash-up of "When a Man Loves a Woman/This is a Man's World". Beautiful music, and we stayed on so late, I didn't even notice the time. The experience was amazing cos Uncle let me sit on a reclining chair, with blanket and all! Felt so amazing! Uncle and Aunty was so hospitable and welcoming, I felt so warm inside. :) The concert was BRILLIANT! And I can't wait to either watch the whole thing or something. It was amazing. Andrea Bocelli, Katherine McPhee, Charice, Ne-Yo, BabyFace, Earth, Wind and Fire, etc! It was beautiful! I felt like I was in heaven! <3
That was an unplanned date/unpredictable. Regardless, I had a lot of fun, and I really thank Uncle Sabri and Aunty Wati for being such wonderful hosts! Also, thank you to my boyfie and his mum for taking me there! :) I really had so much fun and was so happy! Not forgetting the fact that all those songs were stuck in my head for the past 3 days! LOL! Michael Buble singing "Feeling Good" at the concert, and I was like *swwwwoooonnnnsss*! He's such an amazing singer! Beautiful voices! Oh, and Uncle Sabri was amazed that I knew who Michael Bolton was and even loved him :P I'm young at age, but old in music.
