BREAKOUT BLOGGER AWARD

I have just received this award from Jhoaniquing of My Memoirs. I feel real honoured to get this award from you. Thank you very much for keeping me in mind always.

"This award casts a spotlight on bloggers who are starting to draw lots of attention - the equivalent of a song with a bullet on Billboard’s Top 100 chart. They do provide good posts and good buzz. These bloggers are going places in a hurry."

I would like to congratulate all the bloggers that I think should deserve this award. In no particular order, they are:

PapaJoneh of My Little Knowledge Corner
Nicholas Chan of nickchan dot net
Ken Xu of My Sites Advisor
Monkey Wong of Monkey Wonderland
Cedric of His Name is Cedric

AWESOME GUY BLOGGER AWARD

Thanks Roberta for coming out with this cool award. Some guys sure rock and I am sure they do need some sort of acknowledgement too. Firstly, I would like to thank PapaJoneh from http://www.papajoneh.com for presenting this award to me. Thanks for everything. You truly deserved this award as well. I have tracked back the award and nothing much has been mentioned about it. After all, the name “Awesome Guy Blogger Award” itself has already explained everything.

So who deserved to receive this award? I will need to award this to 5 persons whom I think are awesome in the blogosphere. After studying my whole list, I have decided to award this to these people in no specific order:

Beng Beng of My Longkang
Chee Hsien of Hsien's Dirty Secret
Alvin Chew of AC <> DC
BenjiPapa of Too Much Something
Aaron Chua of AaronWoolala: PHWROAR!!!

You guys are AWESOME!

PANDA HERE PANDA THERE PANDA EVERYWHERE

I AM A BLUE PANDA HOLDER! I HAVE SHOUTED 5000 TIMES!

Ever since joining ShoutOut on 25 June 2007, I have been shouting until I lost my voice. That was just an excuse but it can be quite addictive too. Haha! Well, I would say ShoutOut is the best creation ever in the blogosphere. Not only did ShoutOut create LIVE chats amongst the bloggers, it also created a big, cool, and happy family for all those bloggers out there. There is always the caring and sharing within the family members.

Originated from Penang for Malaysian bloggers, ShoutOut has steadily expanded to many states as well as countries. We now also have shouters as far as Singapore and Holland. I would to take this opportunity to thank Lasker and Elise, the masterminds behind this wonderful creation and also to those shouters members who had made me feel very comfortable with their companionships throughout this short duration. You guys ROCK!

Here are the PANDA WALK OF FAME recipients:

First Panda Holder – Chee Hsien
Quiet in nature but once you get him a camera and an internet connection, he can be a hyperactive guy busy camwhoring and shouting, even in his sleep. .

Second Panda Holder – Angeline Tan
She is a cool and happy-go-lucky girl. She can shout so loud that everyone will just stop there and then to listen to what she has to say. She is now based in KL for further studies and we all do hope that she will get her internet connection up in no time to continue shouting. We all miss you Angeline.

Third Panda Holder – Adelene Tan
This one is really Beep Beep the Roadrunner. She can shout so much that we hardly realized that she had moved so far up in the ranking. I always call her a BRAT not because she is such a rascal. BRAT as in Beautiful, Romantic And Talented.

Fourth Panda Holder – Minny
This is the hottest and sexiest mummy of ShoutOut. She loved camwhoring just anywhere, even in the female toilet. I just wondered why ladies like to take so many photos in the toilet. Haha! She is also a naturally born Shopaholic. If you want to know where can get good stuff and offers, she is the MAN (in a woman’s body…haha!)

Fifth Panda Holder - BenjiPapa
A bachelor still even though he has the nickname of BenjiPapa, can be such a joker at times. He looked quiet too in person but can be a loud shouter when he is in ShoutOut. He is a handsome guy and you girls out there who would want a good boyfriend, he is the best candidate. Move fast now before you end up getting only his underwear left. Haha!

Sixth Panda Holder – Criz Lai
Well, I have not much to say about myself except that I am a real panda in life. I hardly sleep with a hectic work lifestyle. See me and you will see the two big black panda rings I have on my eyes. I am wild but huggable and most of the time, you will end up the trees or stuck to the wall with the joke I tell.

THINKING BLOGGER AWARD

I am pleased to be the recipient of this “Thinking Blogger Award”, presented to me by none other than PapaJoneh from Kota Kinabalu. I have not met him personally as I am from Penang and we are separated by the South China Sea. First of all, I would like to thank PapaJoneh for all the support he has given me ever since I knew him earlier May this year. Not only did he advertise so many times on my blog, he has also guided me personally on the many virtues of life. Never have I met someone who has given me so much sunshine when my days are gloomy with thunderstorms and lightning. He has been a good husband to his wife Corey, a committed father to his son Josh, and a future father to his upcoming twins. He is also actively involved in the local RC (Radio Control) Car Circuit. Thank you, PapaJoneh.

There are 5 other persons whom I have known who have made me think most of the time. Here they are in no specific order:

Ah Pek from AhPek dot com

Whoever does not know Ah Pek should get their butt kicked. He has been known to be a very knowledgeable person in the blogosphere. He is definitely an experience blogger who will make me think and understand what he has written in his post. Well, his hidden messages have always been fun, humorous, and in some case very direct. Without his recommendation and encouragement, I would not have the motivation, courage and determination to move forward to be who I am today. Thanks Ah Pek for always supporting me from far above.

Sweetpea from Hold My Hand

A committed mother and a hardworking wife, Sweetpea has always touched my life with her experiences in bringing up her son, Aidan. She has always made me think how fortunate I am to be able to know such a wonderful mother. I have always loved her sharing on the progresses of her son. I would love her to receive this award for always being there for her son and also for thinking, planning, organizing what are the best for her son. Sweetpea…you deserved this award!

Zewt from As Zewt As It Gets

Zewt has been a wonderful blogger ever since I knew him not so long ago. He is a person who will always come out with good articles to keep my mind thinking. He is a committed blogger too. No matter how busy or occupied he is with his work and personal time, he will always take that limited time to go through all the blogs that have left him a comment. I would like to thank Zewt for motivating and encouraging me to take a step further in blogging. You deserved this award as well.

Cedric Ang from Good Boy Gone Bad dot com

A young and promising blogger, Cedric has the right flow and attitude in coming up with posts that are related to our daily lives. His sense of humour, courage and directness have always kept me thinking and enlightened on the many aspects of life. He has also blog in another site that gave good advices to youth. Well done Cedric, take this award with open hands.

Lasker & Elise from PenangPenang dot com

Without the diligence, commitment and determination of these two persons, we would not have our first ever Malaysian-made Live Chatting Program, ShoutOut. They are surely a dedicated team who has the foresight in gathering all the Malaysian bloggers locally as well as overseas all under one roof. I am proud to be in this family of shouters. No matter what, you two should be proud to display the award prominently in your site.

Lastly, I would also like to thank the wonderful creator of this award, Ilker for a nice work done in promoting this award internationally.
