Is blogging has reached its climax and coming to an end already?
AhPek thinks blogging is not going anywhere except circle around Malaysia while Wuching finds blogging isn't fun anymore.
I guess the main factor that kills our interest in blogging is paid post. It deviates our main intention in blogging (before people starts blogging for money) from being personal and informative to money making. And not to mention that it kills our page ranks overnight.
Perhaps we should go back to the basic. Just like the show Doogie Howser MD, Neil Patrick Harris who ended the show by using his computer to write weekly journal entries. And it's always about his own feelings and experiences. That's the part where all of us viewers back then looking forward to.
Now, I'm thinking, blogging on weekly basis might be a good idea.
Wow, time flies and what's more exciting than celebrating a brand new year with the first Grand Slam starting tomorrow. Prediction for 2008 Australian Open winners? What prediction? There's no prediction needed here because the winners for men and women categories will definitely go to Roger Federer and Justine Henin. Top five men's seeds at the 2008 Australian Open: top seed Roger Federer (L) of Switzerland, Rafael Nadal (2nd L) of Spain, Novak Djokovic (C) of Serbia, Nikolay Davydenko (2nd R) of Russia and David Ferrer (R) of Spain.
Top five women's seeds at the 2008 Australian Open: top seed Justin Henin (L) of Belgium, second seed Svetlana Kuznetsova (2nd L) of Russia, third seed Jelena Jankovic (C) of Servia, fourth seed Ana Ivanovic of Servia and fifth seed Maria Sharapova (R) of Russia. I'm just worried about Rafael Nadal as he is still using straps for his knees during his training. Hopefully it's just a preventive method to avoid injury before the tournament.
And talking about Nadal, in the recent months, a lot of people actually come into my blog after searching for Nadal's naked picture, which of course will only lead to their disappointment. Guys and girls, there's no such picture, okay. But there are thousands of shirtless pictures though.
Here are some shirtless pictures of some of the top tennis players. Eye candy for you before the Grand Slam starts tomorrow.
Okay, these pictures look weird. Hope these are not another photoshopped pictures to make Nadal looks like a beast.
Marat Safin's game might be going down hill but his photos are always sought after by the cameramen.
Andy Roddick looks like a winner, doesn't he? And he proves it at the Kooyong Classic.
They say Andy Murray is one of the smartest players but he is definitely not smart enough when it comes to hair grooming.
I'll pass Fernando Verdasco.
According to Novak Djokovic, he thinks Paradorn Srichaphan has one of the best body on the ATP tour. Well, I don't think so. Arnaud Clement, the world #54, looks way better than many of these players. (All pictures are from Getty Images except for the last two.)
American Idol season 7 is going to start soon. Are you excited? Am I excited? No!
I have completely lost interest since the last season whereby Jordin Sparks is the winner. The judges said the same thing. The contestants sang the same kinda songs. Perhaps the only thing interesting is watching all those William Hung wannabes.
The show has lost its credibility. Yeah, Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood and Chris Daughtry did make some airwaves with their hit songs. But others just go down the drain. Record labels have dropped previous winners Taylor Hicks and Ruben Studdard. And now another record label decided to drop Katharine McPhee as well.
Last season was a complete disaster. American Idol has become the biggest joke with Sanjaya being one of the voters favourite. To me, the voting system has never been my favourite. It sucks when you see the best contestant being voted off while keeping the weaker ones. Try ask Chris Daughtry fans.
Will American Idol end up like another reality show 'Survivor' (I'm talking about ratings-wise)? I doubt American Idol will survive too. Okay, maybe another season if Paula Abdul is being accused drunk on the show or Britney Spears decided to call Simon Cowell for advice.
If you haven't heard about the show One Million Star (超級星光大道) before, you must be living under your shell. Or perhaps you are just not into the Chinese music industry.
Don't we all love kung fu movies? In a typical kung fu movie, the gang from a rival school (usually bad guys) will always ask for a challenge from the main actor (usually from the best kung fu school in town). In Cantonese, it is called tek gun or chai cheong, if you know what I mean. Even Chuck Norris wanted to challenge Bruce Lee to see who is the best.
The same idea is applied to this singing contest whereby challengers are welcome to, well, challenge (in this show, they use the term 'PK', which I still do not know what exactly it stands for) the contestants. Some challengers suck but there are also some good ones, like Jam Xiao, who are feared by the contestants in season 1, which is currently shown on AEC channel on Astro every Sunday night. In season 2, one of the challenger is our very own Malaysian, Astro Talent Quest winner in 2001, Eric Lim Kien Fai. I am quite impress with him singing his rendition of the song 'My Way'.
*Spoiler* Recently, I gain a lot of traffic from this post about the show. Some people want to know who is the winner of the first season. Well, if you can't wait for the result show on AEC channel, the winner is Yoga Lin. Surprisingly, Aska Yang is the most popular guy in the show despite he didn't win after pulling out from the show for personal reason which has something to do with the controversy in the show about his age. And not to mention Jam Xiao's success too.
Here's the performance of the three guys (the first three contestants in this youtube are Aska Yang, Yoga Lin and Jam Xiao). If you are following up with season two, you might want to agree with me that this time, a girl is going to win.
