Am I the only one who ain’t crazy over McDonald’s minions? I’ll take McD Hello Kitty series anytime!

July 4, 2013 by thejessicat

 

 

It's been a few days since Despicable Me 2 premiered in Malaysian cinemas and well, the emphasis of this sequel this time round is centered around Gru's minions.

Yup, you know what I'm talking about.

Those animated, incoherent little yellow stumps ARE EVERYWHERE! 

 

Okay, they're cute… and funny (looking!), I suppose. angel

 

Seriously, the craze about those tiny minions in Despicable Me 2 is starting to get to me.

Almost everyone I know are going bananas over those little minions that coincidentally, also resembles stunted bananas LOL. Am I the only one who's not obsessed over them? surprise

Some scenes from Despicable Me 2 on the minions in question.

 

Almost every single post I skim through on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are about them.

 

Even McDonald's Malaysia ever so cleverly tapped onto the market and

created a new collectible merchandise consisting of the popular minions.

 

I find myself not riding on the craze, thankfully, lest I spend even more money than I already am.

Jumping on the minions' bandwagon is the last thing on my mind. surprise

 

Looks like your minions have discovered their newfound fame, Gru.

 

I've gotten a few requests/challenges to sing the minions' banana potato song.

You should know me by now. Here's my first attempt.

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.

Jul 10, 2013 | You challenged me, so here it is! Jessicat's BABABANANA POTATOOOO #minions song. My first attempt! Enjoy lah.

In retrospect, McDonald's Malaysia really know how to entice their fans – they always have! 

Aku tidak lupa dekad yang lalu, semasa McD menjual koleksi mereka yang digemari ramai. Ingat tak?

 

Who remembers collecting the entire Sesame Street merchandise by McDonalds circa 1995?

I have them at home! My godmom collected the entire set.

 

McTeddy Bear craze in 1999

Can hardly find any photos of it on the internet but here's the bathrobe version!

 

Those Sesame Street series and McTeddy Bear series were sold when I was only a little kid.

Read: NO buying power LOL. crying

 

This year, I found myself completing the recent set of collectibles by McDonalds – the Hello Kitty series!

 

As big of a fan of Hello Kitty as I am, the thought of collecting McDonalds' Hello Kitty merchandise didn't even cross my mind. I don't particularly fance queuing up for a toy.

But eventually, I did. It all began when Konzy surprised me with the first one.

 

On my laptop. McD x Hamburglar heart

 

At Mcd with my very first McD merchandise. Thanks love! heart

 

And so I thought that was that. After all, Hamburglar looked pretty cute.

But when next week came, Grimace came knocking on my door, thanks to Konzy again.

 

At home. McD X Grimace

 

 

Grimace Hello Kitty with my furkid, Chivas.

Clearly, he wasn't too amused with another cat in the house.

 

When I went to office on Monday, I was surprised to see many Hello Kitties on my colleague's desk.

Wow. Looks like a man of 40 collects them too.
Terkejutnye aku, apabila mengetahui bahawa rakan sekerjaku juga mengumpul koleksi ini!

 

On my office desk. Third plushie: McD x Birdie

 

Birdie Hello Kitty got me hooked.

Since I already have the third one, might as well finish the collection, right? devil

 

The last and final one was finally up for grabs.

Evidently, this should be the most popular one, seeing that it is Ronald McDonald, the pivotal mascot of McDonald's himself.

 

On my home work-desk. McD X Ronald McDonald

 

Like I said above, I never intended to collect any of them, but Konzy kinda got the ball rolling when he surprised me with the first version. And since then, I was hooked on to getting the entire set.

Gotta catch ‘em all, eh? wink

Speaking of which, if McDonalds ever came up with Pokemon merchandise, you'll find me queueing up at their counters everyday LOL. Ardent fan of Pokemon here!

P/S – I can still sing the Pokerap and still remember the first 251 Pokemon names before the ugly ones came about.

 

Anyway, here they are. My collection of McD X Hello Kitty merchandise.

Don’t they look adorable siting prettily in a neat line, fringing my desk? I love them so! heart

 

Sorry, dear minions. I think I'll pass this round! wink

My new look. New style. Welcome to the planet of Hipster geeks! And hello, Mr. Angry Bird

September 4, 2011 by thejessicat

 

Express post via my iTouch!

So, I've decided to adopt a new look. New style. New whatever-you-call it.

 

Yeah, the geek has taken over me

Also known as the mod hipster

 

To be honest, I'm not even sure how this decision came to part.

Perhaps it's just one of my random streaks. It could be just a moment, really, or another of my short-lived phases.

 

After vs Before

What do you think? 

 

I've actually asked this question on Twitter and Facebook last night.

A majority of people responded saying how they prefer me without glasses simply because they didn't want me to hide my eyes and also because they're used to seeing me without glasses on.

 

But hey, a change is sometimes fun 😛

 

Right?

Now, now. Don't get angry with me 😛

 

Also, I've enjoyed playing with my new toy. Thankew so muchhhhhh!!! 

Someone special happened to read my tweet of my wanting an Angry Bird plushie but cbf to buy it

 

UPDATE!

It's been a week with my Industrial Piercing now and I'm relieved to say that it's healing well!

 

Yup, I've been laying off the seafood and being extra hygienic

 

Also, due to the piercing, I've seemed to have changed my hairstyle too. 

I've been sporting a one sided ponytail or side-swept locks for a week now. Yeah, all because I didn't want my hair to tangle up with my new piercing, lest it becomes a bitch of a pain to endure.

Besides, it's cleaner without the oil from hairs to go anywhere near it.

 

One week down. Do I really have to wait for 6 months for my Industrial to heal completely?

Le Sigh. ;(

 

Oh and, I went back to visit thefockers for the long weekend – Raya holidays.

And guess which ball of sunshine greeted me at the door? 

 

Loves!!! 

So happy to come home to hugs and kisses from our beloved terrier, Penny

 

Camwhoring with my superstar granny en route to dinner!

 

Bah. If you must know, I've been laden with assignments! Namely Youth Media and Video Journalism.

I'm writing an essay at the moment; problematizing the long-debatable belief of how media content itself has led to profound behavioural and attitudinal effects on youths.  Yadda yadda yadda blablabla.

 

So yeah, I strive to finish it before I fly off to Melbourne!

Hence the express post

 

Okay, breaktime over. Back to workies for me; it's nerding time!

Hope you have a great week ahead 😉 Till next time, folks
