Huai Bin

Nuffnang Featured Blogger for the month of July

Greetings! I’m Huai Bin (often called HB for short) from sixthseal.com and I’ve been asked to write a couple of words for the featured blogger column in Nuffnang. Being a rather verbose person by nature, I’m going to cut down on that aspect and write a more concise introduction. ;)

I’m 27 years old though I look nowhere near my actually chronological age. I kinda like that, it’s nice to have people thinking of you as in the early twenties instead of pushing the big 30. I started my blog while I was in uni in Australia back in April 2002. There were only a couple of blogs then, most now defunct, and I wanted to start one with photos in every post.

Back then, digicams were rather expensive items and ADSL wasn’t even widely available in most parts of Malaysia. I got a Nikon 775 and started the habit of taking photos everyday wherever I go. I write about everything from the mundane daily life of a student in Melbourne to events and travel reports.

I write very candidly in my blog about my personal life and am one of the totally public and non-anonymous bloggers. I give out my personal cell phone number on the blog and anyone who does a whois on my domain will find out where I live. I’m one of the bloggers who is not afraid to show the world that I’m a person “with feelings too”

My Toyota Vios car number plate is also available for all to see and is about to receive vehicle livery with sixthseal.com airbrushed across the side and back. Please don’t smash my car if you don’t like me though, I do enough smashing of my own already due to the numerous vehicle collisions I’ve been in.

I like doing food reviews, events coverage and travel reports. I’m quite an outgoing person in real life and I like meeting new people and experiencing new things. I’m also a bit of an adrenaline junkie and have since gained a reputation for being unafraid to do anything. My psychologist calls this novelty seeking behavior. ;)

I also have another reputation and have been on the pages of Harian Metro (front page) and Sunday Times (Singapore) for another reason, which is for you to find out yourself if you haven’t heard of sixthseal.com before this. ;) There is a bit of a gap in 2007 due to a certain event that happened during that year but now I’m out and blogging again. I’ve been blogging for a good six years now, and I’m not about to stop.

You can never keep a good (?) man down, or at least that’s what they tell me. ;)
