Hi. I am an ordinary youth who is mainly attracted to technological stuff. Here's a brief story that most my friends asked me about, "How do you get to know so much about computers?"

Around the time I was in Primary School, my family received an Apple computer from my aunt who stayed in the States. That's my very first approach on computer. Of course, during that era a computer is not as user friendly as today's "click (or touch) and go" concept. I can still remember that before booting up the computer, I have to insert a 1.44MB floppy disk into the computer's mouth to start up the operating system. Then, if I want to play any games in the computer I have swap diskettes into the computer. I was fortunate that my aunt supplied me an album of diskettes of games. The computer on that time was very fragile and I can't leave it on for more than an hour. There is once I was playing Othello in the Apple and was slightly addicted to the game, and I smelt a burning smell. I thought it was something burning in the kitchen. I just about to leave the computer desk to check out the kitchen, I stared at the little puff smoke that abruptly puffing from the computer monitor. Without second thought, I switched off the main power supply. This is the first computer I ever damage. There are total of five damages I have done to my house computer, mainly two are deadly and unrecoverable. I shall reserve the explanation for later time.

Besides, damaging computer as my main hobby, I love to browse and surf the Internet to fulfill my thirst of knowledge. Here are my top 5 list:

1) Smashing Magazine (where I look for inspiration)

2) Sony Music Japan (to listen the latest J-music)

3) Paul Thurrott's SuperSite for Windows (to see what's Microsoft up to)

4) OneManga (reading comics at my leisure time)

5) Google (the gate to the infinite of data)

Furthermore, I also like to design wallpaper as well as simply adopt and adapt the tutorials from the net on designing wallpapers and digital card. So far I have participate on the designing the Accounting Society's Pangkor Trip poster and the Wushu Camp poster.

Once again, to all readers I hope you enjoy your stay~

=)

My name is Dillen, currently I am in Year 3 Semester 1. I am based in Sg Long Campus. Well, I am a usual guy currently living in this Earth. :D

I don't have much hobbies like some other people, but certainly I like to play badminton and I do collect toy cars as my hobby. Well, My collection is still very small as collecting toy cars cost me a lot of money.

Usually I use my intenet primarily to play games. Other than that, I also use it to search information to keep myself updated as well as for assignment. I also use the internet to stream movies or videos from youtube. Other else, would be like posting comment on friends blogs and reading forums.

I prefer tech sites compare to other sites:

1) Hardware Zone

2) LowYat.Net

3) YouTube

4) TVOkay

5) Download.com

I like all the websites above is because I can get to know the latest changes in the computing world and as well as catching some shows that are not available in normal tv station.

Well, that is all about me.

It has been a long time I didn’t write anything about myself. The last time that I wrote about this when I was first started using Friendster as there was a column that requires the user to fill in his or her personal data as well as something that he or she would like to share with his or her friends. So well, for the assignment purposes, I’m here again to write something about me.

My name is Allyssa Ho Jia Huey. I was born in Johor Bahru and stayed there for a couple of years. But I finished my primary education in Brunei. Hence, I do not have a UPSR certificate but a PCE (Primary Certificate Examination). After I completed my primary education in Brunei, I was then moved back to a small town in Johor named Batu Pahat. I stayed there for a year and moved again to Kuala Lumpur. I’ve been staying here ever since then. The reason why I shifted from here to there were all due to my dad’s job that required him to travel from one place to another. Out of the four places I’ve stayed before, I love Kuala Lumpur the most as it is the city that never sleeps.

My top hobby is to surf the net and My top 5 internet site are:

1) DyGod

2) Facebook

3) Hotmail

4) Aimini.Net

5) XiaXue

Besides that, I love blogging and reading other’s blogs too like XiaXue, kennysia and etc. I find it interesting to read about other’s lives as well as their experiences. Furthermore, lately I am addicted to e-shopping. The web has variety of products for the consumers to choose. Apart from that, e-shopping is so much simpler than shopping at the shopping malls.

Basically there is all about me. Thank you for your time to read our blog.

Have a nice day.

Love,

Allyssa

Hi everybody!! My name is Kawsiliya Nair. I am 21 years old, currently pursuing Bachelor of Commerce (Hons) Accounting in Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman. Born in Negeri Sembilan but my hometown is Johor. There are four members in my family. I am the oldest and I have a younger sister who is three years younger than me. Blue is my favorite colour, hate pink, crave for chocolates, love Baskin Robin ice cream (rum raisin flavor), dislike hypocrites and adore Prison Break series. My family and my closest friends are very important to me. i really cant thank them enough and i am really blessed to have a wonderful and amazing family.

During my past time, I enjoy reading, swimming, surfing and shopping (of course). I like to listen to music especially orchestra, pop, rock and motivational songs. In fact any music or songs will do as long it doesn’t hurt my ears. i do enjoy visiting the bookstores especially MPH, Borders, Times and Kinokuniya.

The top five websites I often visit are (click to visit):

1) TOM365
2) DesiPowerChat
3) Muft TV
4) YouTube
5) UTAR

The reasons why I often visit above websites are due to the fact I love entertainment and I like getting to know information about a certain lifestyles, education, health, fashion, the do’s and dont’s and some other interesting information. i frequently download the latest movies and series online till to the extent my friends call me "The Download Queen". Almost everyday i will be downloading some stuff. so that is why i do not have to go to the cinema and waste my money practically watching all the movies in the "movie kingdom". Besides, i do visit Malaysiakini to update myself with the current news that is happening in the country. I do enjoy playing games when I am bored or when I want to distress. Well, that is a little about myself. Hopefully, I could do well in this subject.

"..always love and believe in yourself, have a little faith and never give up in life"
