iPhone Apps: Glee Karaoke (I CAN SING!)

Did you know I can sing? Me neither! 

Here I am singing Baby, It's Cold Outside (Glee version) through an iPhone app called Glee by Smule. I really like the app because it allows me to practice my vocal chords. Plus it somehow restructures my voice so I'm not so out of tune. ^,^

I highly suggest those who are frustrated singers to use this app! :)

To listen to me break out in song, just click on this link:

Crazy Bottling Game

I was able to see some ads in Facebook for a new site where I could play Typing Maniac. If you guys remember what that game is, it's a game where random words fall and you are typing them up as fast as you can before they hit the bottom of the screen. Well, anyway, the game has gotten a new platform and it is similar to king.com. Just like king.com, there are several games under the website. The beauty about these websites is that you don't need to download the game. You simply need to register and log in every time you are going to play.

I tried playing Typing Maniac again but later got bored with it. So I tried out the other games in MetroGames. I tried out Catapult, Anti Virus, and Crazy Bottling. Among those 3 games, I enjoyed Crazy Bottling. Catapult does not have good instructions and needs to be fixed by the developers of the game. Anti Virus is like a typical Tetris but is confusing.

Meanwhile, Crazy Bottling is a game where you play with another player. Each one of you has 2 characters: a really muscular guy and a awkwardly thin guy. These two are your players. You play along with your rival as you transport the cases of bottles across the room. You have to wait for your turn until you can move it.

The game is pretty simple. You don't need to press anything to carry the cases. All you need is to move your players up and down so that the cases don't fall and you don't lose your job. For your left character, the controls are: A for up and Z for down. For your right character, you simply press the ↑ (UP) and ↓ (DOWN).

Each time you miss a case, you will get reprimanded by a really annoying boss. When you get 3 misses, you get fired and the game is over. If your rival gets fired, you get a promotion on the other hand.

Try out this game. It's very interesting and will require your hand-eye coordination. PLAY AGAINST ME! It is also a good way you can network and meet new people from all over the globe!

Fitness First Cut The Fat Challenge

Fitness First- Cut the Fat Challenge

Since January of this year, I have been engrossed in a new Facebook Application that has taken my mind off a few things, including work! The Fitness First- Cut the Fat Challenge is an interesting Facebook game which is sort of like The Biggest Loser. Only this time, it's your fingers that are doing all the hard work.

You start with 300 pounds and work your way through every 1 pound you lose. This means you need energy to workout. And in order to have energy, you have to eat. In order to eat, you need money. You can get more money every workout you get. And this is a cycle which goes on and on. In order to lose 1 pound, you have to get rid of all the fat. Once you do, you lose one pound and you get another set of fat which you need to lose.

While this may seem like such a boring game, there is a catch that will tickle your fancy. The biggest loser of this game will win a 1 year membership at Fitness First and an iPod Touch. Up for grabs are also SGD money (paid through PayPal), Fitness First 6 months membership, Fitness First Free 7 Days, and a Fitness First Bottle.

Try it. You might join the crew in trying to beat one another. The game ended last January 31, 2010 but has yet began another round for February. Hurry! The biggest loser right now only weighs 128 lbs!

Ponzi, Inc.

I must admit, I have gotten hooked to one Facebook game application which has caught my fancy. Ponzi, Inc. is not your typical game like Farm Town or Restaurant City. Unlike other games, Ponzi, Inc. allows you to do your normal routine while still enjoying the game when you get back to it.

In Restaurant City or in Cafe World, when you are away and do not get back in time after your task has been done, the food spoils and you lose money. You need to log back in after a specific number of minutes so that you can still keep playing the game efficiently. But with Ponzi, Inc., you don't need to. Even if there is still a disadvantage of having tasks expire in Ponzi, Inc., they're not like the other two games where they are more frequent.



I have been playing Ponzi, Inc. for about three weeks now and I am enjoying every minute of it. I have reached a high rank already and currently am in Level 21. This morning I just discovered I can earn a portion of my friends' earnings by setting them up on a pyramid.

With Ponzi, Inc., you are your own boss and you are running your business. You choose which tasks you do and you do them depending on when you want to. Ponzi, Inc. has earned 5 stars from me and I will keep playing it until I don't get bored.
