Flat Panel TV
I still remember the good ol’ TV days, ie the days before YouTube and other video sharing sites “took over” our lives. At that time, all my family members will always fight for a place to sit to watch our favourite show on our small telly. Back then, I was really hoping that we could afford a large flat panel TV.
Well, I am still hoping to buy a large plasma screen for my family someday. While the prices of plasma tv in Malaysia is exorbitant, one can easily get a plasma TV in the US for relatively cheaper price. Take, for example the Pioneer PDP-6070HD Flat Panel plasma tv in Shopping.com. This website, which allows you to view deals on plasma TV clearly shows that one can easily get a 60inch plasma tv from as low as $3000. I doubt you can get anything close to that with RM3000.
For those in the US, you can make use of the listing of offers to make your Plasma TV purchase much easier. By sorting the list by price, you can find out the cheapest place to get your Plasma TV, which is much more convenient than hunting for one by foot. There are also plenty of other selections of plasma TVs and you’ll also get to read reviews of each product. If only such shopping website is available in Malaysia…

RealTravel – A Website for Travellers
If anything involves paying money, everyone wants the cheapest and the best. Thankfully, we don’t have to shop around manually as everything can be done online. This includes hunting for cheap accommodations when you go travelling.
Obviously, travelling involves a lot of money and most of the expenses are to pay for hostels and food. So, it’s very important to do your research before booking for one, or you might end up in a dodgy yet expensive hotel.
If you’re planning for a trip, then there’s a website called realtravel.com, which can help you with things like journey planning and hotel/hostel bookings. You get to read reviews and price list on hotels (for example, look at their New York Hotels section), get on discussion with other members in their discussion forums and read the interesting articles in their Editor’s Picks section. This website has been voted one of the 12 essential travel sites by Forbes so obviously it’s a well-established site that will definitely help your holiday/backpacking trip planning.
The Importance of Travel Insurance
I would like to share a bit about my experience with travel insurance. Some of you might think, why would I need to fork out extra money for travel insurance when you are already paying so much for a much deserved holiday. Actually, the more you pay for a holiday, the more worthwhile it is to get a travel insurance for your holiday trip.
When I went for a trip to Spain few months ago, I bought a single trip travel insurance from STA Travel simply because I want a peace of mind. I wanted to enjoy my holiday, without worrying about lost luggage or being robbed or losing your passport, as I know my insurance will cover that. You wouldn’t want to cancel your trip just because you lost your valuables, would you? Also, it is very usual to bring a lot of cash while travelling so you’ll get a sense of security there as well.
Actually, my wallet was almost being “picked” by a pickpocket in Barcelona. Luckily I managed to spot him. Their tactic is quite simple: they normally target travellers by getting close to them near places like gated exit/entrance (eg: when the gate where you enter/exit in Metro station). Once you passed through the barrier, you’ll be separated from the pickpocket so it’ll easy for him to escape. So, always be careful when entering/exiting places like that (in fact, you have to be careful at all times).
I didn’t realise that Marks and Spencer (aka M&S), the supermarket for “higher class” people also provide travel insurance. Yeah, you can actually buy your travel insurance from M&S, be it a multi trip travel insurance or an annual travel insurance. I shouldn’t be surprised really, because other big supermarkets in the UK provide bank accounts, insurance, credit card etc. Something that is completely different from what we can see in Malaysia, eh? Anyway, it doesn’t matter where you get your travel insurance from as long as you make sure it covers all your valuable stuff. It’s definitely worth getting a travel insurance, based on my experience. =)
My Life As A Hot Woman
You know, not everybody has the chance to be a hot woman. But with the advancement of technology these days, anything is possible right?
So, from an ugly male –> hot female is not impossible. You know what I mean?
I’ve decided to go for a sex-change operation. I know it will cost a lot of money but I think it’s worth it. A lot of procedures to go through at the moment, such as changing my passport, getting a medical checkup and all that.
What do you think? If you believe everything I’ve written just now, well done. You’re officially my best friend. =)
I came across this story on digg.com, about a man’s experience of being a hot woman. Don’t be put off by the photograph on the front page, but read through the story – it’s pretty interesting! Don’t be put off by the 9-pages, either. Not easy being a hot woman, eh? With great beauty, comes great responsibilities.
