I’m a first-time voter for our GE13! My thoughts on the Malaysian General Elections 2013 (5th May)

May 2, 2013 by thejessicat
 

 

In exactly four more days, will be the one, fateful day which the power of democracy falls into the hands of the people a.k.a the rakyat.

Like many others, this Sunday will be my first time voting for the party/candidate of my choice.

 

I've thought long and hard and have been on the fence all of this year and late last year.

I've been passively monitoring views from both sides – the government and the opposition.

I've been researching both policies, manifestos and mandates and have listened to both ceramahs.

 

And two months ago, I have since made up my mind and will be flying all the way back to my polling station (located in my hometown Penang) just to cast my vote!

 

Can't say that I'm not the least bit excited! devil

 

Polling stations/booths opens at 8AM – 5PM. Come early, expect to wait due to the long queue so bring something to entertain yourself for hours! angel

I've marked my calender and am now sporting nude nails for the first time in ages.

Ladies, remember to remove your nail polish/manicure of any sort before the voting process as you will risk ineligibility to vote or have your vote spoilt.

 

Don't ask me why, it's something to do with the indelible ink that will be dabbed onto your fingernails.

 

Important! The ink will take about 30 seconds to dry. Be smart and bring along a tissue to dry off your finger before holding your ballot papers. Any smudge or stain on the ballot paper will render it spoiled vote. 

 

Logic aside, just don't go to your polling booth with painted fingernails, aight?wink

REMOVE THEM NOW! Your vanity can wait heehee. And so can mine!

 

Remember not to wear anything that supports or aligns towards the party of your choice to avoid ineligibility

Be absolutely neutral in your clothing. I suggest wearing either black or white – safest bet! laugh

 

Anyway, in view of the election day, here is a relevant, interesting infographic revolving around real estate and property that I'd like to share.

 

iProperty.com Malaysia  -  #1 Digital Property Advertising Business in Malaysia
 
Created by Iproperty MY, the number one website in Malaysia
whether you have a house for sale or are looking to buy.
 
 
I can relate to the infographic above very well, as I also share the sentiments of the majority. 
 
As of late, I have actually been scouting and surveying property prices around some of my favorite hot spots around the Klang Valley, particularly Damansara at large.  
But the thought did cross my mind; to wait until AFTER the GE13 to continue my search and proceed any further.
 
Reason being, well… who knows?
The plausible change of regime *might* see a change in real estate policies, market values and measures. laugh
Ini kalilah!
 
 
All in all, whether the tables will be turned or not, I wish for a clean and fair electoral process. yes
 
Because, whether the ball switches sides to the opposition party or maintains with long-time current ruling party of a 56 year chokehold, the outcome of the federal and the state government that will be in power for the next 5 years ultimately lies in our hands.
 
 
We shall all wait and see. Hidup rakyat!
 
 
I hope that everyone eligible to vote will exercise their democratic right to cast their vote on the ballot paper this coming Sunday. Don't be lazy. Come on, X marks the spot! cool  Do you know who you are voting for yet? wink
 
This election is very crucial. Vote wisely, folks!

You wanna be a Celebrity PA? a Gadget Reviewer? Nescafe Kickstart Reloaded makes your dream job – reality!

July 28, 2010 by thejessicat

 

I haveeeeee a dreeeeaaaaaaaaammmmm~
A songgg to singgggggggg~
To help me copppppppeeeee~

If you have a dream, then make it happen.

I once dreamed to be a fighter, like Xena the Warrior Princess!

 

 

 

It doesn’t matter if your dream sounds too far-fetched. Dream big and work towards it! Aim for the moon, and even if you fail, you will still end up amongst the stars

Read this post titled 13 Steps to Pursuing your Dreams [Quitting Your Day Job] and see how you can dream big!

 

Whoever thought that you would be paid to shop? Or… to party? Or better… to play video games? Nothing is impossible.

 

  What if someone gave you a chance to experience what you love? *winks*

 

When I was little, one of the the first dreams I ever had was to be a swashbuckling pirate.

 


Told mom about it when I was 5 and she gave me an eye patch.

 

Talk about parental support ey *winks*

 

 

As I was approaching my teens, I dreamed of becoming a mayor of a city. Probably too much influence of the Powerpuff Girls’s mayor of Townsville. A national leader, more of. Like Queen Elizabeth II and the like..

 

In my decree,

rock songs should be made into the national anthem! 😛

 

Years passed and I wanted to become an ambulance driver, if not an F1 driver
(both can get away with speeding and at that time I was up to my neck with speeding tickets!)

 

 

either that or….

 

😀 😀 😀

 

… a Harley Davidson racer girl!!

 

 

Totally love the need for speed

 

 


And as I grew up, I wanted to be a rockstar. A real guitar-driven rockstar! With a groupie!

 

But on days where I feel lika good girl, I dream to be… a deity and achieving nirvana 😛 😛

 

 

So probably like me, you prolly have lotsa your own wildest dreams 😀 and that’s where Nescafe Kick-Start can help you!

 

To date, it has been making dreams come true for Malaysian youths for years!

 

Talk about motivation babeh! 😀

 

 

If you’ve been following the previous seasons, contestants of Nescafe Kick-Start was previously supposed to come up with ideas/plans for new business ventures (to take over the world!). Then again, how many of us would know how to financially plan that huge amount of capital… at that age?

 

If you ask me, I’d take a trip to the mall and spend it 😛 heh *guilty*

 

So this time round, Nescafe Kick-Start Reloaded embarks on a different route –

offering the winner a 3 month internship at their dream job!

 

 

Heck, there are 15 DREAM JOBS altogether! I’ve checked them out and believe me, they’re freakin cool, exciting and one of a kind. Not any of the mundane sit-down jobs at all, woots!

 

 

Now who’s your mystery shopper? *wink*

 

Imma let you in on some of ‘em. We’re talking about Game Testers, Mystery Shoppers, Party Planners, Celebrity Pas, Gadget Reviewers and much more. Go see for yourself!

 

Betcha never thought you’d be PAID to do the things you love, ey?

 


So here’s the deets!

To win, you gotta

 

1. Submit your choice of those dream jobs

2. Do a self-promotional video telling the public and judges why they should get their dream job


Then comes the voting stage~~

After voting by public and judges, 15 finalists will be chosen to undergo a 24-hour challenge *holds breath* that will include both physical and mental challenges to overcome.

 

Here’s your chance to be filmed and broadcasted live online!

 

 

At the end of the 24-hour challenge, your future employers takes their pick on who they want or do not want to hire. It’s up to how you perform! So putcha best foot forward and impress. Super exciting right? 😀 😀
