Post 6: VLOG is coming! National Day!!

Hello again peps! This is Russell reporting in for another blog post. I just got my new acer laptop today. I got so excited I did not do the unboxing. I am sorry for not giving you guys what I had promised but oh well.

Today Carlson and I might do a vlog to introduce ourselves as we haven't showed our real identities yet. We will be also featuring Janson with us today if he is free so I hope you guys will like it.


Today is independence day of my country, Malaysia. It is its 57th birthday today and I am happy to be a Malaysian. I am proud to be Malaysian because they are different cultures and races in the country. We have different kinds of food and events over here. I really like it to be in a multiracial country. Although we have a lot of races, we still live in peace and harmony. That is the thing that I love Malaysia the most. Happy Independence Day Malaysia!

Post 5: THIS IS SPARTAAAA!!!!! Clash Of Clans too

Hello again! Back to my life again shall we? First let's talk about the slogan, "THIS IS SPARTA!!" This sentence is one of the most horrible sentences I had ever seen. First, it made me tear my homework. You got that right, when I was about to submit it and was gonna tear it from the book and I said: " THIS IS SPATA!!" and the result is rather than the page was torn beautifully, it was torn to half. Not just that, This morning, when I was going to my seat after talking to friends and shouted :" THIS IS SPARTA!!" Guess what? I tripped over my own bag and fell like a boss. I dunno why this happened. Maybe it was just plain bad luck or this sentence was cursed by Sparta himself.

Our air conditioner can be used after all! The school said after you had paid the bills of the broken windows you can use it as usual. All thanks to our class monitor, Carlson. Next Saturday, my school is going to organize the mooncake festival. The seniors will be in charge in making the mooncakes wherelse the juniors will be making the lanterns. Carlson, Ivan, Ong, Chong and I will be in a group in making a lantern. I am not sure what crazy design they will make though, it won't look good I tell you. On that day we will be having movie class as well. I hope it won't be as boring as the last one. But what can you expect from a school? They won't give you action movies with no educational value. Heck some action movies even include bad words which has negative values.

I am a Clash Of Clans gamer, I am level 84 and I am in a clan named STRIKE CLUB. The leader is brodster but we call him brod. He is from Australia and he is level 115. My clan has just 20+ members so I hope some of you guys can join. The requirements are Lvl 70+. It might be a little high because this clan is for pros. I am a regular TH 9 player with a mission to reach champion. It might not be easy but I hope I can achieve it. Most of my friends also play the game and they are mostly pros as well.

Talking about the mooncake festival, if you want to buy mooncake, please buy from my aunt's bakery: Faith Bakery. The moonckes there are handmade and contain no perservative. I appreciate your support. It is located in Bandar Hot Spring, Jalan Air Panas, 91000 Tawau ( Opposite to On On Coffee Shop ). It is near to Unijaya and the building is orange in color. It is very easy to spot it as it is the only building orange building. Anyway thanks again for watching and I will see you guys later.

Post 4: Tech Gossip

Hi there! There is nothing special going on so I have decided to post something on technology. Carlson is posting some official news but I would like to post something that is just not official. Here is some news about the unofficial news....

Nvidia to launch GTX 900 series graphics cards, maybe.
Looks like Nvidia has gone mad on the naming scheme and decided to skip the 800 series. Although the mobile version is still 800M, recent reports indicate that Nvidia will soon launch the GTX 980 and GTX 970. The cards are rumoured to be announced on the 9th September of this year with the 2nd Gen Maxwell to follow as well. The real cards will be shipped in October. Remember to take this news with just a pinch of salt as it is unofficial.

HTC Desire 820 may have a Quad core 64-bit CPU
HTC already unveiled one of the first Android smartphones with a 64-bit Snapdragon chipset, the Desire 510, but it's saving the higher-end phone for IFA. The HTC Desire 820 teasers initially suggested it will be the first phone with a 64-bit octa-core processor.
One of the popular leaker accounts on Twitter has provided more info on the device – it will be a 5.5" phablet with a 720p screen, 13MP main camera, 8MP front-facing camera and a 2,600mAh battery.
The chipset is listed as MSM8916, which is the same Snapdragon 410 chipset with quad-core processor that the Desire 510 is based on. It will allegedly come paired with 1.5GB of RAM and 8GB of storage.
The octa-core info came from a post on Chinese social network Weibo so there could be two versions of the Desire 820, HTC has put out more powerful, Asia-only versions before. Or it could be that the rumored info is wrong, we'll find out for sure next Thursday.
Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Video Leaked?

Is this the real Samsung Galaxy Note 4? With the announcing date coming soon. It is no doubt that leaks are coming from everywhere.

It is rumoured to sport a 5.7 inch SUPER AMOLED with an alleged 2K resolution screen. It also has a 16MP primary camera with the ability to shot 2K videos at 30FPS.  It might also have a 4GB RAM and a Snapdragon 805 chipset to give the best performance. These are just rumours and may change on official announcement. The blog will try to get as much information as possible and post it here.

Time for the countdown AGAIN! Apple Event Sept 9.


Guess what? We are several days from the Apple event falling on the 9th of September. It is expected to realease products that we all are waiting for. It is expected to present the iPhone 6 (or named differently) in both 4.7 inches and 5.5 inches, and, not to forget about, the rumored iWatch (or iBand or whatsoever), the first wearable product in Apple history.
iPhone 6 (rumored) & iPhone 5s comparison


Best iWatch concept of all times




 It is expected to have an elegant design and also astonishing functions (at least better then the ones in the market now by Samsung, LG or whatever). That's what Apple is good at, making products revolutionary! I expect the iWatch to have the most necessary hands-off phoning, Siri, and health apps in order to cooperate with Healthbook in iOS 8. For the iPhone 6, of course, we have a wider screen (which I don't especially like) and a better chip, maybe bigger RAM? I don't know, all we can do now is wait.

September 9, I'm coming!

Carlson out.

Hyperlapse from Instagram

It's Carlson here again and I would like to show you a new app that I like a lot, released earlier today by Instagram. The app is Hyperlapse from Instagram, which is only available for iOS devices. It can be found in the App Store. What is so special about it is that it allows you to record hyper lapse videos which WAS impossible to be done without expensive equipment, until now. If this is not clear enough, you can refer to this hands-on video by Technobuffalo
This video may not work on some handphones. Please go to this link to see the exact same video on Youtube: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tlNjLwcbitI

Be sure to have a look and give it a try. It works perfectly. Absolute simple UI, astonishing functionality.

Post 3: Life is hard, especially when you are a frog

Hey my fellow followers! Today is day 3 of the blog and Post 3 as well. I know I said I won't post on a daily basis but who knows? Today I shall talk about my life. A simple yet happy life. I have a life that is actually pretty relaxing rather than the busy having tuitions like  you guys have or busy working in the office. I live at Taman Da Hua 3, which translated to English means Big Flower Garden 3 ( Doesn't make sense, right? ). My house is a semi-detached house which is considered pretty big for me. There are very few condos in Tawau as it is just a small town (unlike those bustling cities where high-rise buildings are everywhere). I got a family of 5. which consists of my dad, my mum, my sister, my animal and me.

I shall not tell anything about my family members (as they told me not to) but I can blog about my pet. My pet is a dog. His name is Rio. He is a pretty cute dog. He is both awesome and a little fat. I don't know his breed as he is mixed, very mixed. He does not like to swim but he does like to bathe. His fur is black,grey and white on the chin, feet and belly. He is a star in my eyes because he is cute yet very fierce. He can be a star in my blog if you guys like him.

Life is kinda tough on these few days because exam is coming next week. Today, my class had no air conditioning because we broke two windows in 5 days. They say until the glass panels are shipped here and fixed, we cannot use the air conditioner. I guess we have to use the fan for the time being. (All thanks to me, Ong, Yip and Janson). My blog is getting tougher to write too. As the blog gets more pageviews than ever I am trying hard to please everyone of you. Carlson may have taken off a little pressure from me as he will be  posting on technology. I will be focusing on the rest. Life is really tough, especially when you are a frog.

Post on gaming this week might be cancelled because of non availability of  my new laptop. I play games using desktop in my dad's shop but will upload my videos using the laptop. I might post 2 videos at once but that might not be possible because of the exam next week. Okay that's it for now. Please Comment, Like and/or Share. I will talk to you guys later

New techno-blogger

Hey there, I'm Carlson here, a friend of Russell's. I would be blogging on a weekly basis and will be posting about technology. My blogs will be mainly about Apple Inc. and Beats by Dre (as I'm an ultimate fan of it). Of course, I will also be blogging about other companies as long as it is worth a mention. Be sure to support me. Follow me on Twitter (@CarlsonNg2001), Instagram (@CarlsonNg2001) and also Facebook (@CarlsonNg2001). Carlson out.

New changes are being made, get ready!

Hi again! This is not a blog post I am afraid. But this is more of a post to tell u guys my blog is changing! This is not just me anymore but a friend of mine would like to contribute to this blog as well! Most of my stuff will be the same, but now Carlson shall be in charge of the tech segment. He is my friend and of course, he is also interested in tech. I am happy to see that Carlson is now a part of the blogging team. Welcome aboard Carlson! I dunno if he will post a blog post about himself or not but we shall see.

If you would like to contribute as well, leave a comment or simply Facebook me! I will be very happy to see you guys contributing to the blog!

~Russell

Post 2: Thanks for supporting me and first post about school

Thank you!!!!!!

To be honest, I am very happy to see the amount of support I have got! I wanna thank  everyone that visited my blog and I hope you like it. First of all, I won't post on a daily basis. I mostly post every weekend or if I am free on any weekdays. Based on the current poll status, everyone voted for my school life and 2/3 voted for Life at home. Only games and tech is 1/3 so I have thought of new ways to post all of these things without you guys getting bored on the stuff you don't like. Since gaming and tech are mostly videos and pictures, I only have time to do those stuff in the weekends. I will post about gaming and tech on weekends. Tech on Saturday and Gaming on Sunday. That's great isn't it?School and Life will be on weekdays.

Ok now I shall elaborate more about my school. I study at SCHS which stands for Sabah Chinese High School. If you guys miss out the last post, it is a Chinese independent High School which doesn't get financial support from the government. I am in class J1R which is Junior 1 Red. I have a lot of friends in my school. They include Yip Quan Wei, Carlson Ng, Ivan Ng, Chong Ric Son, Ong Jian Fu and Janson Ng.

Alright then, back to my school life. Today is Wednesday so that means today is caligraphy day. Caligraphy is basically an art of writing stylish Chinese characters in Chinese brush. I dunno why they still do it as it is much harder than using a normal pen. I guess it is taught to make us remember the tradition although we really do not use caligraphy in real life. I really suck at caligraphy AND I MEAN IT. I only got half marks on it. FYI, I suck at anything that involves brushes. That means I also suck at art. I could post a photo to show you but you won't like it. Next week is exam time so I need to start revising hard in order to get good grades. I do hope I can get good grades because when your parents give you that sad face rather than a fuming mad face can make you feel really guilty on having bad grades.

Due to the fact that next week is exam week, I can't post anything about games or tech so I do hope you can forgive me on not providing it. My new computer should be just around the corner. I should also have a gaming channel so rather than just posting the videos on this blog I can also post it on youtube which can also attract more peps! Anyway that's about it for today. Sorry for my grammar. My editor in chief ( Dad ) shall update the post if theres any mistakes on the post.

Post 1: First Day Of Blogging.

Hello! My name is Russell Kong. You might not know me, or you may have known me for quite sometime. Anyway, welcome to my blog! This is my first ever blog of my life as a student, a gamer, a son and a pretty idiotic boy. I actually hope it will become successful but lets wait and see. Your feedback is very much appreciated. So lets dig right in!

I am just a simple little town boy that does normal things like everybody else. I go to school, play games and hang out with my friends. I post a lot of things on my FB but it doesn't feel right to post things about my life as Facebook is used to just post important things in your life ( My opinion ). Then my dad encouraged me to use a blog to post my daily activities. You might think it is boring, but it is kinda extraordinary. I have a family of 5 which includes: My dad, my mum, my sister, me and an animal, literally. I have a hobby of playing video games and singing. I tend to lose my mind when I play games so my parents always try to stop me from playing too much but after they stopped me for a while I usually get back to the game. As they say, you cannot simply pause an online game. I also have an interest in technology. It is kinda weird given that I am just 12 years old. 

I have a great school as well. I currently study at Sabah Chinese High School. I am studying in Junior 1 Red. To be honest, I kinda like school more than my home as I can have tons of fun with my friends. I also hope that my friends will support me on the blog. I also really care on maintaining friendships as I don't want to lose my friends.

Anyway thats about it for now. I hope you like it and leave a comment to let me know on anything that I can improve on. Do follow me on Facebook and Twitter!  Thanks for using your few minutes on this blog post! I am trying to learn on how to post media onto the blog as well. My next blog post will be an unboxing of my brand new Acer laptop. I will see you there! Russell out
