About a week back, I received an sms from my Mum while I was out.

If there is ever a way to do a ROFLWTFBBQ in the MRT at that point in time, I would have done it.

My Mum, not wanting to just use her phone for calls, picked up the skill of using sms many years back. And it amazes me that she has picked up using smileys in her sms-es now. She’s in her mid-50s by the way!

Of course the amusement was a little short lived considering that she broke my guitar that was with me ever since I was 18 years of age.

How many countless zhar bors have I tackled How many times I have played with this guitar! It was pretty cheap when I bought it at just over a $100 back then and learned to play it from a friend and the internet where you could probably learn how to levitate if you search hard enough.

Not really intending to replace it as I haven’t been playing the instrument for quite a few years now. KuKuNehNeh is already in my hands and I don’t need to do any more serenading.

WAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAH!!

INQ Mobile is giving away $100 cash and a $100 shopping voucher to one lucky winner!

INQ is one mobile phone company that is doing things a little differently with their phones. They cater for users like you and me who feels the need to be constantly ‘plugged into’ the internet and be on social platforms like Skype, Windows Live Messenger (WLM) and Facebook. Guess what? They integrated the mentioned social platforms (and more) into the phone itself.

As such, my favourite feature of the INQ Mobile phones is the integration of social platforms into the address book of the phones. Fire up your address book, see who is online on WLM, check out their newest drunk profile pic from Facebook, call someone on Skype to laugh about the pic; all these done right in the address book.

The bad news is that the makers of the best mobile handset at the Global Mobile Awards 2009 do not have their INQ mobiles available yet in Singapore. While we all drool at the possibility of actually owning one soon, take this chance to win lovely prizes from them right here!

One lucky commentator from this blog entry will be awarded $100 cash and a $100 shopping voucher and here is what YOU have to do:

1. Go to INQ’s website and find out more about their mobile phones and note the features that you love the most.
2. Post a comment in this post about the features that you love about INQ mobiles.
3. [optional] Tweet, Plurk, Facebook update about this contest I am hosting to increase your chances of winning! All social updates must contain the tag #INQmobile and the URL to this post http://pea.to/inqkt so that we can track and up your chances!
   The phrase that you can use for updates is:
   I discovered a new phone thru @krisandro! Go check it out and you
   may win $200 cash + voucher! Details at http://pea.to/inqkt! #INQmobile
4. Remember to leave a valid email for your comment in this post so that we may contact you after the results are revealed. Please also leave the following information in the comments if applicable [If you did instructions no.3):

How lame can my title get while trying to think of something to correctly represent this post? Haha!

Uno is heading back to Ang Mo Kio today to meet her grandmother KuKuNehNeh who is probably excited enough to accidentally crush the baby lovebird with a bear hug. Uno probably won’t appreciate strippers nor alcohol for a farewell gift and so I decided to let her meet my resident dog, Junior.

So…..

This is all that is left of Uno after Junior played Uno….

WAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!

Junior is quite the coward and he is actually a little wary of Bluey the last time she came around for a 3 day stay. This time, all he did was to take a few sniffs of Uno to decide that this little bird which is about the size of his thigh, is not to be trifled with; and so he promptly turned away as well.

Uno seems pretty oblivious to Junior during the experience. She probably took a look at him and wondered if it’s too early for lunch.

Gonna miss taking care of this little lovebird!
