Open Trolley is my alternate universe Amazon

opentrolley

Actual Open Trolley does not look like this.

Okay, like, I was surprised some people didn’t know what Open Trolley was but then I realized that I haven’t actually told what it was specifically except in real life to people.

I call it my alternate universe Amazon.

WHY?

Because it’s basically got all the books online except that IT IS IN SGD AND THE SHIPPING IS LOCAAAAAL! ARRGH. Yes! You know those hard to get books that you wanna buy in the US/elsewhere because it’s not stocked at Kinokuniya/Borders/Popular/etc?

It’s here.

How I blog…

Just in case anyone’s curious on how I blog, I decide to detail my process on it!

Firstly, as you might see this is foremost a literary blog… but apparently it has my adventures on it. GUESS WHY!

That’s cause in between writing stories and such, well it’s good material, non? I can describe things like how one jumps off a building and swings along on a piece of rope or whatever. These events and adventures are pretty cool and it’s good to know how they work. Like research before you write!

Plus, it’s freaking cool to do things that your characters might do.

Secondly, others might want to know it too! So that’s why I blog. I blog for those who can’t do it because they’re not here or they can’t because they’re unable to for some reason. Or heck mostly for those who want to know.

I like to write events on how it is so that my friends and those who wanted to be there can read it like they’re there or at least generally know what happened.

Okay, now the process on how I do it!

Megazip at Sentosa!

Note: UPDATED blog post as of 2011 here.

Blog post trailer video:

This is gonna be very wordy by the way.

On the 8th August 2009, Lysistarielle and I went to the Megazip at Sentosa because we went insane to know that it was open via online booking. Mind you, this is before the official opening so this review will probably be different from the experience of people who went after it. It’s probably just going to be different with the signs anyway.

Singapore Toy, Games & Comics Convention 2009

I don’t know how to start this so I’ll say that it was awesome!

Photobucket

Wooo, wooo okay. So on the first day (for me), on Friday I went to the conference sessions first. Bla de dah. It was pretty cool! The stuff were informative and fun. Also, I got a conference goodie bag. The speakers were all very interactive too and you got to learn more about their various productions or products.
