Xiaxue VS GushCloud!

So back in August (Post), I mention that blogging these days is really competitive and the whole industry have changed. From a love for writing to really doing purely online advertising and marketing!

In the past, I really enjoyed reading blogs especially bloggers from Nuffnang such as TypicalBen because they could really write well and also because of their lifestyle. All time favorite is of course Xiaxue and i'm saying her not because I wanna get fame or readers from this but because she is always being real! Yes, people might hate her due to the way she writes and insult people but put it this way, if the other person or company did not do anything wrong, will she even bother?

Okay, off to the main point!

So if you have been following social media such as FB and Instagram, you should have seen the post that XiaXue posted recently on Gushcloud. Just in case you don't know, Gushcloud is another company that handle their own bloggers and social media platform.






So detective Xiaxue have been investigating Gushcloud for a year or so to gather evidence and finally, hard work pay off! tadaaa! Her post is out and she posted the evidence of how Gushcloud is actually masking advert and lying on their bloggers' stats!  So for full details, check out Xiaxue's blog :)

So Xiaxue also mentioned this

"If you ask me - and this is purely my guess - I think the fake views merchant had a glitch on those two days, and the system went down so the numbers there more or less reflect the REAL views, which seem believable."

So she did mentioned that it was her PURELY GUESS that the youtube views were fake and bought! Hence, it was the only thing that Althea Lim (Co founder and CMO of Gushcloud) could rebuttal back in the post back to Xiaxue in 14hours! Just so if you Kaypo want read ok? Here is the post! Aiya but don't bother la! I summarize for you what Althea posted ok?

In short, Althea Lim rebuttal in 2 points! 

1) The intention of Xiaxue is to bring Gushcloud down so that Nuffnang would do well

2) Althea posted all the stats of blogger a.k.a youtube channel of Yan Kay Kay, showing that the youtube views were not bought.

That's all! Yes! And I spend 10 freaking minutes reading it! And yes, just 2 short points! wtf!


So from my point of view

1) I truly believe Nuffnang have been doing very well throughout the years. If not why their bloggers can do so well? Why would sponsors come knocking on their door? #UseBrainPlease

2) Probably YanYan had her viewers and well, probably Xiaxue did guess wrongly! Who is right at every guess? Already say guess right? #EnglishFail

So i went to dictionary.com to find out the exact meaning of guess and here you go!
to form an estimate or conjecture (often followed by at or about):

So not confirm correct right? Estimate! Or you need to know what is estimate also? Since guess you also don't know already! Never mind, just head to dictionary.com ok? Free one!



Next, so what bothers me is that, Althea is trying to protect her company but then again, why did she not mention anything about what xiaxue had bring across? Which I think is one of the worst thing they had done! Faking stats and masking adverts?

This is because all the evidence is up on xiaxue blog! Please go read xiaxue blog! It's so exciting! So what I thought was maybe Althea will post the stats of her bloggers in a month's time? And I PURELY GUESS that she might want to call her friends and relatives on her instagram with 400 follows to read all her bloggers blog before she can show that she did not lie on her blogger's stats! What Xiaxue found out was only 3 of her bloggers? Is it? #jiayouOkay?

Indeed, I agree with every word of what Xiaxue mention and I hope Gushcloud could have more time to think before Althea post a post that did not help at all. #

#JustMy2CentsWorthOfThoughts

Again, if you want to know the full story, visit xiaxue.sg for more details!

And before anyone fame Xiaxue for anything, I wanna say that this post is purely done because I feel that what she said was purely true and I hope that more people will know about it! Also, I hope that Gushcloud could do something better instead of that 2 short points post!

Lastly, MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Pouring heavily while we hop to the next cafe! My Liberica specialty coffee! The batrista were really professional, from grinding the beans to making of the syphon. First time looking at the process. It's really cool and interesting! Unlike what we usually have at the typical Starbucks! It's really a place worth visiting for those coffee lovers! 


The making of syphon was really interesting for me ^^

My first try in ice coffee! Good

Study Tip 101

Hello everyone! I know I haven't had a proper post for quite some time but I'm too lazy at times! *insert sad face*

Anyway, tests are coming for the poly students and all the best for all of you! #Score!

Short Getaway: Part 1

So I am finally back in town! Had lots of fun traveling around a few countries during my holiday! From Bangkok to Korea and then Malaysia. So for Bangkok, I had went there many times so it was really just shopping. Nothing special but will probably post some photos in the next entry! So this entry, you will see most of the photos that I took in Jeju Island! 


Jeju Island is indeed a interesting place. Nice views, good weather and nice people! We went for different activities like ATV which we were not allowed to bring our phones as they afraid we drop it during the ride! But it was really very fun. Up and down the slopes on the rocky route! We also went to  some parks and scenery places! So green and beautiful and the air was indeed healthy! 

Some photos of me trying to do a photo shoot! 



The place is so photo shoot worthy right?! Brightness, weather and nature! All you need is a perfect "model" and a camera! *trying hard to post*


Then we went to some random parks which I can't remember but isn't it nice?!



Guess who can't resist and took a few shots too?


Then we went to some random parks and isn't it beautiful?

So we were in Jeju for 3 days before we head back to Seoul on th 4th day morning!



But because we had a car in Jeju, we could bring our camera around! 3 DSLR is heavy ok? Hence, we gave up in Seoul and use our photos! Give me some time to post the remaining ones!

Mean while, stay awesome and I'll keep the blog updated! :)

Out of teen

So if you guys have followed me on my social medias, you should know that I just turn 20 on 15th September. So there was some thoughts on my mind.

It was truly amazing how 20 years have past. As years goes by, I became more and more afraid. Afraid of stepping into the real world, afraid of people living me and afraid of the changes around me.

Okiee, I shall not be so negative. Let's more on.


Le #BFFs w/ their boyfriends

And a toast for the birthday boy!


The party was a blast! Like everyone was super high and I was so high that I got complain by the security. Neighbors below complaint! I'm sorry, but it's my day! Thank you everyone who made this possible! Thank you for all the presents!

First time receiving 4 bottles of red wines and 3 bottles of liquors! I mean usually it's always liquors! Like hard liquors?! Well, I guess as we age, we move on to something better like wines. And the remaining presents was super awesome! Super love it! <3



To sum it all, thank you everyone who wished me via msg, social media or in real life, I am truly blessed and HAPPY 20th to myself once again!
