Introducing Ann.
On December 28th, 2007 by Baohan

Visit Ann’s website here.

Okay, this is the blog about one of my favourite onliners ever! This blog will tell you how I meet her, start knowing her, and stalk her. (Okay, maybe not…)

Ann’s story. How I met Ann? Well, on a super rainy day, I was bored and have to stay inside and then, when I was searching hardxcore.org, reading my old reviews that I received from him, I came across a hostee page. I clicked on almost every hostee site, until I found out Ann’s site. It wasn’t stunning, it wasn’t glamorous, it wasn’t that pretty, but somehow, I found a spark in it. I then, bored, went to her ‘about me’ page. I read and read, until KAM BOOOOOM, she likes Nightwish, one of my favourite band ever on Earth and Phantom of the Opera? I was expecting something rather like HSM and Zac Efron because it’s the teenager stereotype, but hella-no, I was wrong. That’s when I decided to sign up for affiliate with her site. And yes, I was accepted. We then started to talk, talk, and yes, it’s all about music, we got on so well… and well, we’re still friend till today!

Ann’s personalities is pretty much sarcastic, joyful and funny. She owns a Youtube account where she would post everything on and well, she sings too! Nightwish, Nightwish, Nightwish…and the list goes on. She had this English accent that I love. Yes, I love all English for their cute accents and well, for their good common sense. I’ll be in England one day!

We reached the end. And I hope that you actually have learn something via the blog about Ann. So tell me, do you have a/one of those favourite onliner?

Ben. I use to call him bennyfreak, without the capitals.


A note to all reviewers
On December 26th, 2007 by Baohan

Life is Wonderful - Jason Mr A-Z

Reviewers own a review website and properly are reviewing somebody. I’m pretty sure that about 40% of you guys offer a review service, which is fine, but there are a few things to be aware of. Here is what I think all reviewers need to improve at.

Don’t kill the kid! Yep, don’t insult whoever that you’re reviewing. Tell them the bad things, but not in a too sarcastic tone. Don’t make too much fun of ‘em. If their layout is a real piece of shite, don’t just say so, but instead, tell them how to improve it, tell ‘em what colour goes well with each other and what not to do. Down here is an example:

Killing: OMFG, look at your layout! It was tortoise, all over it! Oh, I’m pretty damn sure that you spent 1.423423432423 minutes on it. Wow, I’m blinding! Someone rescue me?

Or, a telling: I see your layout is tortoise, I don’t like the colour at all, it’s pretty much a short time that you have spent on it. Why don’t try and spend more time, plus you can change the colour around a bit so everybody else wouldn’t be blinded?

…Just ask yourself, which one would you want to read, if it’s your own review.

The second example, I think is never ever, leave your review short, un-detailed and worthless. It doesn’t worth reviewing if you just say that the site is bad, without any reasons. Did you realised that they won’t improve if you wouldn’t tell them why? And explain all your thoughts and feeling about the site too. A short review can be fine, as long as you went through, tell them what to improve and why so. Isn’t it so simple?

The third thing, never ever make typo or and spelling mistakes in the review! Now this is more to the persuasive side of the review. You’d have to be persuasive in order to the reviewee to believe, and improve. So spelling mistakes are un acceptable, if you make a mistake, they’d think that “well, she makes plenty of mistakes, why on Earth should I care about how she review my site? Look how terrible she is!”. They will think that your review won’t worth reading and it doesn’t worth a change reading some one’s mistakes and improve upon it. Although your review is super, is amazing, but if you just made several mistakes, they wouldn’t give a damn, so take care of that part. Punctuation is another thing, I think, but I’m pretty sure that everyone understand this. And Grammar is not that necessary since English might not be your first language.

Don’t sugarcoat them. Do you think that they’d improve if you just sugarcoat them, unless they absolutely deserve it. Not to kill ‘em, and not to sugarcoat ‘em. I think that you got the picture in your head. Don’t just go off and tell whoever that is that they are awesome and “OMG, I love you forever!”. Instead, try and point out their bad sides, if they have any. Also, try to be polite to them, you get what you give.

Okay, I just don’t want you all to think that I’m reviewing the reviewers, therefore, I’m going to stop. :) But I think that most of the reviewer actually have mistakes, so it doesn’t take time to fix it, like you always trying to fix other people’s flaws!

I had a flawless Christmas! Thanks to you all who wished me one! And can I ask anybody out there who either subscribed to my RSS feeds and bookmarked me, I’m just curious about how many. :D


Christmas, but mine is different…
On December 23rd, 2007 by Baohan

So I actually decided to be one of those people and will have a Gothic Christmas. I also started to listen to this song, called Gothic Christmas from my favourite band Within Temptation, and down here is three verses of it. Click here to listen to it on YouTube (new window). Because some of us are just different.

Now, the lyrics. Don’t laugh at the second verse though.

Santa’s going to wear a black dress
Just for me and you
Santa’s going to grunt in Latin
And slay a dragon or two

Rudolph, he will change his name
Cause Rudolph just sounds really lame
Now we’ll call him Ragnagord
The evil reindeer overlord

His nose it shall be red no more
It will be blackened to the core
His eyes will glow an evil glow
To guide the chariot through the snow

Have enough laugh? Or not. I’m quite miserable because my sister made this huge mistake that now I ended up losing a friend. What she did is basically said something bad to the person (you know who you are) via my MSN. *sign.

Christmas is too day! I stayed up. Wooohohohohohohoho. And my Gothic Christmas is going to flawless that you’d be fill with envy when I’m back telling it to you. But now I’d have to IM my good friend Alistaire (how many of you know her?) to celebrate this together. And yes, slaying up dragons is not a bad idea.

After a while of babbling, I just realised how seasons can makes me fond to be hyperactive and now my craze of so is up to it’s highest so that I can kill some one with an ears piercing scream to their ears. Also, I just realised that I need to go to bed. Ragnagord is such a good name you see?

EDIT: Me and the person made up. We’re friends again. Maybe even good ones. Anyway, I’m back on my old track. And I nearly cried yesterday because my friend Ali accidentally poke the umbrella into my leg. It hurts a lot! (I hardly cry because of the wounds, if you see me crying, it would be about my life, my emotions. No hurting such…)
