LOLShare!

Posted by chervalier On March - 30 - 2010

Wow it’s been a long time since I’ve posted one of these isn’t it!? Heh. Well it’s not that I haven’t found lots of LOLShares lately, it’s just that I haven’t actually thought to share them with you!

.

I know this used to be a rather popular feature here on chervalier so I’m going to try and bring it back. Today’s LOLShare is all about communitychannel ! I heart Natalie Tran much coz her sense of humor is pretty awesome and who doesn’t love that accent? Plus she’s asian and normal-sized but still HOT so plus points to infinity for that! =)

.

In my opinion, she’s had 2 spoofs that were really awesome. In one video that was viewed by over 20 million viewers on youtube, she spoofed the following video tutorial.. Behold:

.

.

Now note that the above pursebuzz video is a serious tutorial, that actually intends to teach you how to fake abs with makeup…. Yea.. I don’t like this chick though she’s also Asian.. She’s too… “cutesy” (inverted commas because she ain’t really cutesy, just trying to be) and her accent is grating, her voice hurts my ears.

.

Anyhoo,  here’s Natalie Tran’s truly awesome SPOOF of the above video:

.

.

Yea.. Note the difference! Natalie Tran’s voice is so much more soothing, and if you watch her videos you’ll know she rarely ties her hair in ponytails like in this video unless she’s acting as someone/thing else.

.

Anyhoo, another one of her spoof videos that I found utterly awesome (i had to specify “spoof videos” because in general i love ALL her videos) is one where she’s presumably mocking MichellePhan (another famous Asian girl youtuber) in one of those “Look like XXX Celebrity with makeup!” videos..

.

If you’ve watched any of those videos at all, you’ll find the following video truly hilarious. If not, you’ll still get quite a good laugh out of it. Watch:

.

Choice quote: “I’ve chosen Angelina Jolie because we pretty much already look the same so there’s not much difference.. Not much work to do..”
.
Gosh I love it. Trust me. Subscribe to communitychannel and you’ll find life a lot funnier in general =) I’m hooked!! =)
.
In the meantime, I’m writing up more LOLShare articles so stay tuned! I’m also preparing entries for when the blog gets quiet so you should check back here often I guess. Intend to post at least 2xs a week =)
..
Till the next time, ciao guys and hug a vegetable today! =D (edible or human, up to you)

vlog update and I will try!

Posted by chervalier On March - 28 - 2010

So ok, i know I haven’t exactly been blogging nor vlogging. In fact, to quote Brenda, “last entry: March 02, Cherlynn’s Grand Theory about Life!” lol. But after meeting the SGBloggers yesterday and thereafter reading their blogs, I’m pretty inspired to blog more often..

There must, however, be some kinda compromise here. There will probably be less pictures in the posts (because that takes time to prepare dammit! even if all I do is run a google search and self-host them) and they will probably be shorter and more disjoined. Would you all like that? LET ME KNOW =))

In the meantime, check out my latest vlog! It’s kinda different from usual and has an “opinion” section so do let me know how you think! Watch both parts!! =)
FYI:

Dayna: http://amourchaleur.com

Terry: http://teddy-o-ted.com

Brenda: http://brendalogy.net

And part 2 here!:

So as usual, comment! =) Love you all and see you soon!

Cherlynn’s Grand Theory about Life

Posted by chervalier On March - 2 - 2010

hola!! =)) Sorry for the non-bloggage for like, EVER. I’ve been busy and lazy as usual.. Feb was a totally crazy time for me, every single weekend was booked.. And it’s starting to seem like March is just going to be more of the same..

Just a quick reminder to self about March:

1) Meet Ann! (first weekend for coffee meetup with S?)

2) 12th dinner with tnt

3) 13th- MJ with girls and check if any prior apptmts

4) first weekend with yarn?

5) 27th with sgbloggers

6) 26th play

Yea that’s all so far. Mannn, working really destroys my ability to hang out during weekdays.. I did meet up with val yesterday though and have discovered that Raffles City is a pretty awesome place to shop.. heh. I’ve also discovered that shopping alone is detrimental to the health of my bank account.. ><

Aaaanyhoo, this blog entry is supposed to be a nice meaty satisfying one for those of you who prefer my blog entries..

Most of you should know I’m Catholic and that my belief system is pretty much shaped by Catholic values and principles. Well, most of it, at least. I realized lately that I have an underlying belief that governs my whole outlook on life and yea, i’m about to share it! lol.

catholiclife

Basically, I feel that our life and everything we worry/care about can be classified into a few basic categories. They are

  • Family
  • Health
  • Love
  • Work
  • Friends
  • Money
  • Spirit /Faith (in other words, religion)

Now, the basic principle to life relating to the above is this:

catholicPicture-1-10

Balance.

Yup! Simple huh? Basically, everything will balance out. Religiously, I’d say I believe this because I believe God is fair. You could also see it in a very Zen-manner and believe in the ultimate balance of the universe.

catholicwork_life_balance_sign21

What this balance is referring to is that everything is fairly allocated. For example, if you are doing poorly at work and thus also have money problems, then you probably have love, friends and family who care for you and are probably generally healthy and spiritually sound too. Alternatively if you excel at work, have lots of money, and have great friends and family, then you might just be a bit more prone to illness, or maybe not have a good foundation faith-wise.


So here’s some real-life updating from me that you rarely get on this blog. Everytime I pray (every night and every week at church), I kinda do a mental stock check of all these areas in life and pray that everything’s alright with all of them. However, I know there has to be balance and that something has to lose out somewhere.. Now for me, the most important things are Family and Health. These 2 I will never compromise on. The rest are very important too but I can compromise on those..

I’m very fortunate to be blessed with good things on most of my “areas”.. I have a wonderful family and mostly we have peace (though I guess you can say my bad relationship with my brother is a dip in the see-saw here).. I have AWESOME friends, money isn’t too big a problem, I’m a normal, mostly healthy person and I’m spiritually sound.. So yea, it seems everything’s up up up.. So a while ago, I was sorta taking stock and really praying very hard about the last 2 categories (work had not happened yet and up till then it had been “school”.. love was… not too good. a dip for sure)..

Let’s just say I kinda prayed for 2 things that were sort of happening around the same period. And what ended up happening was this: God gave me a GREAT job and decided to even things out by giving me a $%^&#craphole of a love life..

I mean when I look back on it.. I know how relieved I was when I got the job I wanted. At that precise moment I knew that I would have been a lot more devastated if I had gotten the uh relationship-related thing and lost out on the job than if i had gotten the job and lost out on the relationship-related thing. I think I even told some people this exact same sentiment right at that moment.

And honestly, my job has got to be God-given because it’s just awesome. I’m surrounded by amazing people, learning lots of things, can get to and from work very conveniently… From the bottom of my heart I know it was in His plan (ok if i’m coming across too religious well, I’m sort of sorry but seriously, you don’t understand the whole story) and that the long wait was worth it because I feel truly blessed with a great job. When I hear about some other horror stories of first jobs, I can’t help but give thanks.

About the shitfest that is my love life… I don’t know if I can do without one (because it seems like to even out the balance of all the categories I need to have a shitty or no love life) but I know now that if/when it happens, it’s going to be amazing. Like my job. And I really believe it because I know my next relationship will probably be IT, coz I’m *cough* such an accomodating and wonderful person. lol. No seriously though. I don’t foresee myself getting into any arguments or anything because i honestly think good communication can resolve most problems.

Anyways, we shall not talk about this anymore lol. What do you think? Agree with my Grand Theory?? Love the entry? haha. Love y’all. Will blog about the amazing mahjong night with my girls Michelle Siying and Edna soon! Till then, CIAOOO
