I haven’t got any funny stories to share today, so I’ll just write something I haven’t wrote about in a long time – myself. Normal blogging resumes tomorrow.
I am privileged to be chosen as one of the finalists in the PPS Blog Awards 2005, organised by the Malaysian blog portal Project Petaling Street (PPS). Most people probably don’t care about this but it is quite a big thing to me. This award is unique because it is one that is organised by Malaysian bloggers, voted by Malaysian bloggers, for Malaysian bloggers.
There three award categories are : Blog of the Year (BOTY), Ping of the Year (POTY) (aka Best Blog Entry) and Neophyte Blog of the Year (NOTY) (aka b3sT n00b b|0GG3rz!)
The behind-the-scenes gossip at the PPS Blog Awards is already sensational on its own.
Initially I was leading the nominations for both NOTY and POTY, narrowly losing out the BOTY finalist spot. Jeff Ooi’s BOTY finalist spot was a certainty and looking at the number of nominations, many predicted that I would win NOTY and Jeff Ooi would win BOTY by a landslide.
Yet, when the voting booth opened many people was surprised to see that Jeff Ooi had relinquished his BOTY finalist spot. I was taken off NOTY and given Jeff Ooi’s finalist spot to run for Blog of the Year, eventhough I didn’t qualify in the first place.
This could only mean one thing. I’m not a NOTY boy.
Viewtru. An anonymous blog whom some people say have the same brand of humour as mine. He’s been blogging since September 2003, which makes him the veteran blogger in this category. Compared to my blog, Viewtru’s style of writing is not as attention-grabbing. It is very casual and relaxed which probably appeals to the other bloggers who would cast their vote in his favour based on that.
Mack Zulkifli is a highly intellectual individual whose blog focus mostly on politics and current affairs. He’s often compared to Jeff Ooi, and I must say they are indeed quite similar… right down to their brush with the local police respectively. Some would say his blog is dry and reads like a PhD thesis. But unlike Viewtru or myself, Mack’s blog seek to empower not entertain. He’ll appeal to voters who want a serious and mature current-affairs-type blogger to take the Blog of the Year award because let’s face it, I find my coconuts more interesting than politics.
Ping of the Year
Jeff Ooi’s blog got him on front-page headlines and won him the Freedom Blog Awards. And all my April Fool’s entry got me was marriage proposals.
Peter Tan risked his life to type this entry when the Earthquake hit Penang. All I risked was my dignity.
I think its pretty obvious which one of our blog entries has more substance lah.
Damn. I wanted to blast my opponents but I ended up giving people reasons to vote for them instead. But yeah… vote for me because you enjoyed reading me or something lah (I hope!)
You need to be a Malaysian blogger previously registered with Project Petaling Street to be eligible to vote. There’s one day left, so be quick!
And if you can’t vote, I guess you can always give me encouragement by telling me how beautiful I am.
In the future, this space will be where I write some random notes and short thoughts that’ll look out of place if I were to put them together with the main entry.
I am willing to sell my unused vote.
May the best wrestler win!
Kenny….U R Beautiful!
Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful

don’t you think it’ll be a wee bit harder to hide this blog away from your family if you win this award?
Kenny, you are truly beautiful (but that does not mean we are dating). 🙂
See you at the podium. Since there are only three in each category, I guess there has to be something for everyone, right?
You have got my vote! Go Kenny GO!!
aiyah!

I often have a tendency to compare u to XX, cos I was linked to ur site by her marriage proposal. Well, I think you are more REAL, write much better, more humble and most importantly … HAVE bigger balls than her (I really dunno know wat cup size is suitable for ur coconuts n I gotta a feeling they have just grown bigger liao !)
I am pretty sure you will win !!
Good luck
kenny, you are the best. dun give up hope eh.
Kenny Sia is more beautiful than Angelina Jolie (can I expect a picture to prove it hahahahah)
btw, voted for you man.
hahahaha … fucker .. because of the picture I promise to vote for you. LOL.
Funny, dry or witty, really it defines us in general, and frankly speaking, if everyone is expected to blog like me, blogosphere would miss the laughter that makes it a merrier place.
You’re a good sport. Good on you Kenny and keep up the good work.
You will win at least 2 nomination.I didn’t vote until I read this rant, Was thinking; no time to vote; all blogs nominated are damn good then who to vote for; don’t want someone to lose; many more if i have time to rant.
Anyway this morning I voted,hahaha.
i’ll be cheering for u!
*raises pompoms*
hey kenny u’re so fine, u’re so fine u blow my mind!
hey kenny!
hey! hey!
hey kenny! 😛

Oi, Kenny, next time you do a picture of me, I want to look taller okay? And I want to have a cowboy hat on top also. Must protect my anony….anomity….anonimiti mah! And why you go and tell people that I have a sense of humour like yours? Use serious words like “intellectual” and “profound” mah. You give all the nice nice description to Mack and not me, how can like dat? But okay lah, I am very impressed with your posting. So I announce this for you;
“EVERYBODY GO VOTE FOR KENNY SIA!!!! BECAUSE IF YOU DON’T, I WILL GO TO YOUR HOUSE AND SHIT ON YOUR SOFA!!!!”
very funny interesting post (as always eh!).
kenny, i have to be honest that i did not vote for you. never mind, when there is a ‘macho/cool/good looking male blogger of the year’ i will surely vote for you then. 🙂
