Thank you, MKL's peeps of 2009!
Let's click on some links, shall we? 
2009 is over! The year nearly ended. Yep. That's all folks. Pack your bags and get ready for a new ride, a new journey: 2010! The Tens are here. Woohoo! Are you excited or anxious? I'm excited! :-)
But before we start with a new year, let me say my sincerest thank you to all the people who left foot prints on My Kafkaesque life. I will especially thank those of you, who came at least few times and made me remember you. And let's see from which countries you came here (next year I shall compare and see how the list changed).
✰ My dear readers, followers, commentators, let me tell you:
Thank you! 谢谢! Danke! Bedankt! 謝謝!
Terima kasih! Salamat po! 고마워! Takk!

✰ Special gift to some of you commentators:
I thought of making tiny.urls for some of you. Those shortened links are very useful when you tweet and link to your blog. I first saw Shirley using this for her blog http://tinyurl.com/toothfairynotes. These links never expire, so once you have one, it stays yours forever and you can use them everywhere. Mostly people use them on Twitter, but you can use them on your blog, Facebook or anywhere you wish. I first did some for Stefanie, here http://tinyurl.com/msstef and here http://tinyurl.com/MsStefanie. Then I decided to make some for the rest of my dear bloggers. I didn't make these for all of you, either because of lacking ideas or your blog URL was very short already. So here are my creations for some of you, hope you guys like it [*to copy the URL, first mark it and then press Ctrl + C]: Lovely Andhari http://tinyurl.com/ndeesblog - awesome Manju http://tinyurl.com/manjugone - incredible Sharon http://tinyurl.com/sharonsworld - cool Jerine http://tinyurl.com/jerinestyle - cute Mel http://tinyurl.com/melscorner - witty Shingo http://tinyurl.com/shing0 - super funny Jessica http://tinyurl.com/j3ssica and another candy http://tinyurl.com/pussica :P - dear sis Selvy http://tinyurl.com/selvy - Japan lover Envoy http://tinyurl.com/TEFAfar - beautiful Adeline http://tinyurl.com/adelinelee and another for you http://tinyurl.com/leolady - lovely Van http://tinyurl.com/myinsanity - dearest amiga Lai San http://tinyurl.com/supersan and a shorter one http://tinyurl.com/LiSan - cool Nashe http://tinyurl.com/lanashty - gracious JaiMie http://tinyurl.com/soflawed - super kind Victoria http://tinyurl.com/vpaege - lovely Angel http://tinyurl.com/angelgoddess - awesomely cool Ejann http://tinyurl.com/ejannz - funny Sabrina http://tinyurl.com/sabyj and last but not least, two awesome links for beloved Lily http://tinyurl.com/LilyChen and http://tinyurl.com/yulinga
*Hope some of you guys find my creations useful ;-)
✰ Special thanks to my top commentators:Bradley, Junjie, Sharon, Adamantixx, Jerine, Andhari, Manju, Shirley, Selvy, Angel, Lily, Shingo, Floreta, Stefanie, Ejann, Carina, Rica, ZACL, Nashe and Prometheus.

Anyways, thank Him for the GREAT gifts!

December 29, 2009 2:51 PM
This may sound silly but, I tried clicking on the tinyrul and it links me back to my blog.
And I was like.... gosh, why does it keep directing to my blog? I tried a few times more, and it kept happening.
*blush*
I know, I just don't read what it was supposed to do. Guess I was too excited to get the gift.
Thumbs up for your originality. This gift is simple, yet so effective. I love gifts that comes from the heart.
May the new 2010 be another yummy yum yum year for you! Rock on, Nino! ^_^
December 29, 2009 2:52 PM

December 31, 2009 2:32 AM
Thank you so very much...u really are one of the kindest and sweetest people i've had the pleasure of knowing
But being the retard that i am ....i have to ask...how exactly do i use those tinyurls? :p
December 31, 2009 2:55 AM
@Jessica: Your welcome Jessy Jess :D :D
@sabrina: Many people use those tiny urls on Twitter, because you only have 140 signs to write your message. So to link to your newest post, use this one for example: http://tinyurl.com/sabyj It's always lead your followers to your blog ;)
Good luck! Cheers!
December 31, 2009 2:58 AM
Amigo, thank you much for my lil mention, you are sweet! :)
And may you cherish the good memories from 2009!
I wish you all the very best for 2010, may it be jam packed full of fun, adventure, and lots more as well as even more good memories for you to cherish!!!
:))))))
December 31, 2009 5:20 AM
@LaiSan: You're welcome, amiga :-) I will cherish the good memories of 2009 indeed. Let me tell you about how I found you. At that time there was this public stream on Twitter and I clicked there to find new followers. So it was pure accident that I saw one of your tweets. I clicked on your profile and followed. Then I checked your Chinese name, translated it online (esp. the 2nd part) and saw it means 'beautiful coral', haha.. And then I tweeted at ya and that's how we started rollin'. And it was most likely in April. Now you know the whole story, something I was always afraid to reveal. Lol. So you and people like you made my year 2009! Thanks so much, especially for being such a great friend, when I need advice ;)
December 31, 2009 9:04 AM
Haha! Thanks for the creation! :D
December 31, 2009 11:21 PM

@Beaches Resort: Sorry, I don't know you, nor your blog. I can't be of assistance in this matter. Thank you.
January 2, 2010 8:46 PM
