Text Message Voting
I'll make this short and simple for everyone: key-in "MW 810" (without the quotes and note that there's a 'space' between 'MW' and '810') and send to 32888. For the uninitiated, 'MW' means Miss World and '810' means Contestant #810, our very own Miss Malaysia - Gloria Ting Mei Ru. Text message voting starts from 26 Nov 2004 till 4 Dec 2004.

I was shocked last night when I got an early morning SMS from one of my close female friend around 2:37AM. She told me she is the new Miss Malaysia/World 2004! I called her to confirm then I got speechless... Gloria Ting Mei Ru is really the new Miss Malaysia/World 2004! She also won the Miss Crowning Glory title. Man, I'm so proud of her! And she's only 22 years old. She really made Sarawak stands out.

During the grand final's questions and answers session, she was asked, "what is the Malaysian value you think is most important". And her winning statement was "the most important value is that of tolerance of other cultures and religions". Gloria Ting will represent Malaysia at the Miss World 2004 pageant in Sanya, China on 4 December 2004. You go girl! Don't forget to get me some gifts *hint hint*...

Now she's one level higher than I am in the society. I guess the next time we hang out they'll be paparazzi around us. And I get to share a bit of the limelight as well, haha... *evil grin*

Oh ya, in case you didn't know, she is also Miss Sarawak 1999/2000 back in the early days when we were still in the college. If I can recall correctly, she has other titles as well - Miss Kose (Best Looking Skin) and Miss HairMasters (Best Looking Hair). Oh well, those were the good old days... ;)

A definite beauty with brain. But I still kick her *cough* in Bejeweled, hahaha... And Gloria, if you're reading this, you owe me a biggie!

HP iPAQ h4150

I got myself brand new Pocket PC last week - HP iPAQ h4150, replacing my aging but still in good condition HP iPAQ h3850. And I'm so excited and jumping around with joy... :) Maybe I'll do a review on it.
