Hassle Me Baby!

2009-02-11T11:35:00.000-08:00

Today's Way Khool Site is: Hassle Me

Hassle Me is an invaluable service if you need to be nagged like I do. You can request that the Hassle Me folk hassle you (or politely remind you) every day or to your perfect timing. I picked every day because I need it. This is what I'll receive in my daily email now:

"Get off my ass...off the computer...and exercise and work out!"

I wrote that. I need to be tough with myself, and I also need a hassler--I become so busy I forget to put ME first.

Oprah would be proud of me!

Today's Way Khool Site is: Design A Hoodie

If you like to design, here's a way khool contest sponsored by Champion to remix a hoodie. The prize is $500, and the contest ends on March 31st.

The contest is so easy. Register first. Then drag patterns and/or colors onto a blank hoodie. I'd show you mine, but there was no right click. So if you like my design, click on the link that says "like".

Here is the link to mine in the hoodie gallery: Kuanyin's hoodie design.

Write Me A Speech

2009-01-16T15:38:00.000-08:00

Today's Way Khool Site is: Inauguration Speech Generator

This site is way too much fun to NOT pass onto you. I apologize for not posting here very often as of late, but there's been an EXPLOSION of followers on my Twitter which has been keeping me super busy--along with many other activities.

Mahalo for continuing to visit even though I've been lax in posting.

So here's what was created for me by the generator:

My fellow Americans, today is a fabulous day. You have shown the world that "hope" is not just another word for "world", and that "change" is not only something we can believe in again, but something we can actually cheat.

Today we celebrate, but let there be no mistake – America faces lying and creating challenges like never before. Our economy is ascending. Americans can barely afford their mortgages, let alone have enough money left over for pundits. Our healthcare system is awesome. If your head is sick and you don't have insurance, you might as well call a artist. And America's image overseas is tarnished like a economy debt. But helping together we can right this ship, and set a course for Maui.

Finally, I must thank my addicting family, my serving campaign volunteers, but most of all, I want to thank Bloggers for making this historic occasion possible. Of course, I must also thank you, President Bush, for years of escaping the American people. Without your fantastic efforts, none of this would have been possible.

Hipster or Not?

2008-12-12T16:51:00.000-08:00

Today's Way Khool Site is: Are You A Hipster?

This is a ten-question test, and even though some of the questions have to do with Toronto which I'm TOTALLY unfamiliar with , I STILL came out a hipster--probably because of my sass.

Here's my results:

Are you a HIPSTER?

My Result: Hipster!

Kuanyin

Yes, you are a hipster. Deny it all you want, because The Nile is a river in Egypt and denial is a trademark of hipsterism.

ISTJ - The Duty Fulfillers

The responsible and hardworking type. They are especially attuned to the details of life and are careful about getting the facts right. Conservative by nature they are often reluctant to take any risks whatsoever.

The Duty Fulfillers are happy to be let alone and to be able to work int heir own pace. They know what they have to do and how to do it.

Male or Female?

2008-11-07T16:25:00.000-08:00

Today's Way Khool Site is: Gender Analyzer

Have you ever wondered if a blog is really written by a man or a woman?

Well, I have! I've even considered writing a blog with a (fake) man's name as an experiment, but right now I'm far too busy with all the blogs and other daily activities to keep up as it is.

I tested this analyzer on what I consider to be my toughest blog, Circuitry, and this is what it wrote, "We have strong indicators that http://kuanyin.tumblr.com is written by a man (99%)."

Heh heh. So I guess my male side is already showing on that blog. ROFL!

Sweet Sweeps

2008-10-21T14:24:00.001-07:00

Today's Way Khool Site is: Sweeps Advantage

With the economic climate being what it currently is, I'm wondering if sweepstakes will become more popular. I've entered many an online sweepstake in my day, but as of yet, I've won zero.

Often it takes time to fill out all the forms, and then (gasp!), you get lost in a maze, and somehow you never even get entered because of the misdirections to other sites.

However, Sweeps Advantage looks respectable. It bills itself as "the largest online directory of free online sweepstakes, freebies, and contests."

You can browse by categories, and there's a forum, a newsletter, and a toolbar to help you win prizes too.

You can email me and thank me when you win something!

Turn Yourself Into a Red Swan

2008-10-07T13:24:00.000-07:00

Can One Word Speak Volumes?

2008-09-29T12:37:00.000-07:00

Today's Way Khool Site is: One Word

Note: I'm BACK from vacation and refreshed and ready to post again!

I have so many Way Khool Sites stacked up and ready to share with you, but I'll begin with the one I discovered today. It's so much fun because you have only 60 seconds to write given the inspiration of just one word. And this exercise is great practice for your writing skills.

This is what the site writes:

"simple. you'll see one word at the top of the following page.

you have sixty seconds to write about it.

as soon as you click 'go' the page will load with the cursor in place.

don't think. just write."

Today's one word is EVIDENCE, and this was my contribution considering the economic events of the day (yes, I made a spelling mistake!):

The evidence is clearly in that the world is currently being managed by crooks, liars, and megalamoniacs. Nevertheless, this is part of the process so that they can be made visible and truly known for who they are by the people. The evidence is being shown daily through the news reports, through actions, and through word of mouth exactly what the Truth is. And the end result will be a new society with goodness and justness prevailing. It is always darkest before the storm, and the darkness is clearly in evidence now. This is a good thing, even though it appears to be a bad thing. Once the light at the tunnel is seen by others, they will know that the evidence of wrong-doing was part of the process of unfolding the New Earth. And thus, the evidence is quite pertinent to the outcome.

Woot Is a Hoot

2008-09-06T14:37:00.000-07:00

Today's Way Khool Site is: Woot

By now most people know the expression W00t! And now there's a website which takes w00t one step better--and that's by offering a deal you can't refuse!

Here's what Woot writes on their website:

"What is Woot and who's behind it?

Woot.com is an online store and community that focuses on selling cool stuff cheap. It started as an employee-store slash market-testing type of place for an electronics distributor, but it's taken on a life of its own. We anticipate profitability by 2043 – by then we should be retired; someone smarter might take over and jack up the prices. Until then, we're still the lovable scamps we've always been. But don't take our word for it: see what the online community has to say at this Wikipedia article.
I see only one item, do you sell anything else?: No. We sell one item per day until it is sold out or until 11:59pm central time when it is replaced (see next entry for details). However, each item we sell is in stock and typically ships within 2-3 business days."

With very clever copywriting and great sales prices, how can you NOT find woot a hoot! Woot is the connection you've been awaiting for deals that are steals!
