Do you remember when you started using a computer? The last I remember was during my primary school which was 15-20 years back then whereby we were still using 386 computer which is using 5.25″ floppy disks and Microsoft MS-DOSwhich don’t even have a graphical user interface (GUI)! Imagine that!
Back then I was enjoying playing all those games loaded with the 5.25″ floppy disks and the graphic is not so advance like what we have today.
Today, we have so many options and all the high tech gadgets / phone and computers. I’m so grateful that today we are able to using computer with full user interface which is operate by the Microsoft Windows and with the latest version Microsoft Windows 7 it really do wonders!
Now we have big LCD monitor display and high performance computer with the best OS behind which is powered by Microsoft Windows. It really makes a different!
This is my history of the usage of Windows. Windows 98 > Windows 2000 > Windows XP > Windows Vista > Windows 7
Since then, I have been a Windows users and a lot of Windows products really helps me a lot in my life be it for entertainment, studies or work related.
I’m connected to MSN Messenger 24/7 and using it to catch up with friends and family which my bro which is currently in Singapore. Most of them are on MSN and I could reach them easily at anytime. I’m using Microsoft Office during my college days to complete my projects and now for my work related. I can’t imagine if without Microsoft Office, how could I complete my degree without much hassle and how could I manage my work without Microsoft Words and Microsoft Excel.

I need coffee everyday! If without coffee I will just sleep thru the whole day and cannot even open my eyes! Haha… yes, I’m serious! How about you?
All I need is this SUPER COFFEEMIX 3 in 1, it’s easy to make, no need to add anything and it’s ready to drink by just adding hot water.
I choose Super because it’s value for money as compare to many brands. It’s only RM8.50 and you could get it easily at any supermarket or hypermarket and convenient store. Pure full bodies coffee beans blended with an ideal mix of top grade creamer and sugar, the result is simply irresistible.
On the other hand, there’s this COFFEEMIX (reduced sugar) with a new formula containing 25% lesser in sugar content as compared to Super Regular 3in1 Coffee. A healthier choice for me and yet can enjoy the same premium taste and Robust Aroma. Less sugar means less fats and I can be fit? Should I change to this reduced sugar 3 in 1? =)

Make Your Dreams Come True at Astro Star Quest 新秀大赛 2010
If you think you are as good as the Astro Star Quest contestants you watch on television each week, now is the chance for you to prove it. The much anticipated star-making programme, Astro Star Quest returns in its 14th year with a call for an audition at Federal Hotel, Kuala Lumpur on March 20 – 21, 2010 from 9am-3pm.
Open to all Malaysian aged between 18 to 26 years old and able to converse in Mandarin and Cantonese, this year’s one and only audition will be judged by renowned music industry personalities namely 李伟菘 Lee Wei Shiong from Singapore and Malaysian music producer Alex San. Shortlisted contestants from the first round audition will compete in the second round audition, where fifteen of them will be picked for the preliminary rounds.
Since its debut in 1997, Astro Star Quest (formerly known as Astro Talent Quest), has become a prominent local Chinese singing reality show that fulfilled dreams of many young Malaysians to become successful singers, such as 张栋樑 Nicholas Teo, Gary Cao, Eric Lim, 陈势安 Andrew Tan, Amy Wong, Gan Wan Chean and Choo Hou Ren.
“It has always been our focus at Astro to produce quality local programmes that can enrich the lives of our viewers as well as contribute to the development of the local entertainment industry. We would have missed out great Malaysian talents such as Nicholas Teo and Gary Cao had they not participated in the programme and we are proud to say that Astro Star Quest has provided these talents a springboard to launch their singing and acting career beyond Malaysia,” said Choo Chi Han, Head of Chinese Language Business.
Astro Star Quest has also unleashed talents with different strengths – Danny Koo, Anthony Chang and Jym Chong earned themselves chances to host TV programmes while Lan Kah Fai and Ryan Thoo were signed as youth ambassadors for commercials. Most recently, Astro Star Quest 2009 second-runner up, Chen Keat Yoke starred in the highly acclaimed locally produced Chinese movie Woohoo!, making her a household name instantly.
“Our programming strength lies in the fact that we don’t just discover talents but also continuously develop and nurture the talents by providing different opportunities and platforms for them to hone their skills and talents. This is in line with our Astro Ben Di Quan’s (Local Belt) commitment to develop the Malaysian entertainment industry with a sustainable pool of multi-talented Malaysians,” added Choo.
Apart from a ticket to fame, Astro Star Quest 2010 offers fabulous prizes to the finalists. The top 3 winners will represent Malaysia at the annual International Chinese New Talent Singing Competition, set in Hong Kong, to compete against other talented performers from around the world in pursue of international fame.
