Wanted: Founders for Hello Kitty Online!

After months of going over player comments and suggestions, and working hard to deliver an even better game to all our supporters, it’s time for the big news. The wait has been long, but we’ve toiled to make sure it’s all worth it! So without further ado, we are pleased to announce the next phase — The Hello Kitty Online Founders’ Beta!

October 8, 2008 is the big day, and the this next stage will allow a limited number of users to play Hello Kitty Online ahead as Founders ahead of launch, while earning benefits and participating in special in-game events.

And now, here’s how you can be one of the Founders of the official Hello Kitty Online launch!

1. Sign up for an account at SanrioTown.com,
2. Using the SanrioTown account, send a BLANK email to hkofounder@hellokitty.com.

Remember, you need a SanrioTown account in order to qualify to be a Founder, and the email account you use will be the one we grant access to for the Founders’ Beta. Also, questions, comments and suggestions should be sent to onlinegame@hellokitty.com.

What’s to look forward to? The new version of HKO will feature an improved interface, new monsters, new maps, new items, and the opening of London and Paris.  The Founders’ Beta will also introduce gameplay changes such as an improved skill system, pet systems and team-play oriented enhancements.

So what are you waiting for? Don’t miss out, because we’ll only be allowing a limited number into this stage! More details to come in the following days, so stay tuned!

The Adventures of Hello Kitty and Friends trailer gets more than 1 MILLION views on YouTube! Woah! It’s amazing how it shows that people really love Hello Kitty and her friends! Go Pochacco! :3

Here it is, if you want to see all of its cuteness…

I got this link from a friend, and I guess I’m giving it a shot (at the same time, helping them in their project). The blog title’s Inspire_Me. They created the blog to continue a successful thread in their Yahoo Answers question “Who or What inspires you?” The goal of their blog is “to be an outlet for people who would want to share where or from whom they get inspiration from.”

I found this really interesting, and decided to create a post for them. And since I want to give this entry some “kick”, I’ll answer both (who and what) to make this entry more interesting.

WHO? Besides the usual answer “family and friends” blah, and probably the “Hello Kitty answer”, I know, and I am proud to say that my inspiration is (or rather my insparations are) my org-mates at CSA (Chinese Student Association). Cheesy as it may sound, they’re like family to me now, and I owe a lot to them :3

WHAT? I would like to share a poem by former Jesuit Superior General, Fr. Pedro Arrupe, S.J. My uncle, Martin Gomez, introduced me to this poem, and since then, I have fallen in love with it. It ever fails to lighten up my days. It never fails to give me hope, and a spark when the light’s starting to dim, or when all else seems to fail. ^_^.

“Nothing is more practical than finding God, that is, than falling in a love in a quite absolute, final way. What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination will affect everything. It will decide what will get you out of bed in the mornings, what you will do with your evenings, how you spend your weekends, what you read, who you know, what breaks your heart, and what amazes you with joy and gratitude. Fall in love, stay in love, and it will decide everything.”

So, if you want to share who or what inspires you, you can visit their blog here, or email them your own story, and get featured in their blog.

Cuppy Puppy Cupcakes and Cookies are by Former Binibining Pilipinas (Miss Philippines) title-holder Joanna Penaloza-Romero. As usual, I was browsing through food blogs when I stumbled upon Mad about FOOD, and saw these wonderfully topped Hello Kitty cupcakes. The Hello Kitty tops aren’t included when you order from Cuppy Puppy. They’re just little figures of Joy Cruz.

My friend, Jean, saw this Hello Kitty car parked outside Hyundai, E.Rod. Hello Kitty fans out there, what say you? Hello Kitty? xD

I, on the other hand, saw this nice car in Promenade, Greenhills. Definitely I want this baby! Wahh! :)) I parked beside it and took a photo of the beauty.

I can safely say that there are just at least 26 of these in the Philippines, and Tiff, Harrell and I are proud owners of one (one each).
