Sue Lynn @ Bangsar bAbE
Can you describe yourself in 140 characters.
Ambitious, narcissistic, talkative, animated and did I mention I make a damn good Kahlua chocolate cake?
Righhhttt ... so, how did you start Twittering?
My friend @meishum persuaded me to try it. I ended up tweeting more than she does!
What do you Tweet about?
What to eat, where to eat and who to eat with of course! And also my blog updates, thoughts, accomplishments, happenings, interesting quotes ...
Do you even bother with ReTweeting?
I usually RT when I'm replying to someone's tweet. I like to RT funny statements, interesting links and new restaurant openings.
And where do you Tweet from?
At the office, during lunch and coffee breaks.
That's all? How often do you Tweet then?
Every day. I tweet and catch up with friends via their tweets.
You're a popular blogger. How has Twitter affected that?
I use Twitter to inform others about my latest blog entries and current status. Instead of SMS-ing or calling, I now tweet my friends to find out what their plans are for the evening. So economical, no?
You've been entering beauty pageants, how does Twitter help you with
your campaigns?
I used Twitter to garner more votes in the Miss World Malaysia 2009’s subsidiary title – Miss Popular. I believe (coupled with my blog and support from my friends and family) it helped me win that title.
What kind of role do you see Twitter playing in helping you achieve your goals?
Hopefully, Twitter can further increase my blog readership and popularity. Then maybe some TV director would take notice of my potential and give me a food hosting gig.
And are you busy with any projects at the moment?
My food columns, blog updates, a bit of modelling and my day job. I try to make time to catch up with friends over good shisha at least once a week. Oh, and occasionally turning the kitchen upside down in the pretext of baking a very good cake!
Let's get some Twitter tips. What should you never Tweet about?
Don't tweet about how much you hate your job/boss (your future employer might be your Twitter follower), petty fights with your partner or when you're taking a dump. Seriously, no one gives a shit.
Ooohh funny! Alright then, what is the most controversial Tweet you've seen?
I once read this tweet from a criminal who was running away from the cops, and he was tweeting on the run! LOL
What are your thoughts on Twitter in general?
I used to think it was for those "si fatt hun" (itchy backside) people, until I tried it and got hooked! Now, try taking Twitter away from me, and we'll see who gets hurt ...
How many followers do you have and is it enough?
I have 233 followers, and NO, it's not enough. So people, pretty please, follow meee!!!
Well, convince us. Why should we follow you?
*puppy eyes* Because I’m adorable? No seriously, I’m quite a personality!

brat you been mentioning about. grow up!!!
Back to the topic, another Paris Hilton wannabe twitterer feature? Make up so thick i guess she's another high maintenance girl with a rich daddy...Blogging on food? What r u? A professional taster? Keep your opinions to yourself please..I bet you only go for Michelin star restaurants for meals..
By having a pretty face and a slim body is no talent ok? People like u is the reason why bloggers and twitters are so full of themselves. Go and learn how to play a harmonica ...
Sorry that you are ugly and that you have not found your talents and when you have, I am pretty sure no matter how ugly or beautiful you are, you will look life in a positive manner.
Must be the paris hilton syndrome. Bumblebeeotch is RIGHT !!!
.......Dia manyak gatal lah. Kasi dia "Tiger" punya balm oil'ment.
Joking.
Anyway, nothing special, just some wannabe star :)
These bloggers need to get reality check la..if you think blogging about food and ur little excursions in South East Asia countries can shoot you to internet stardom, then you are so wrong...Get a decent job la and stop being a spoilt daddy's girl...
What led her to the darkside?
You're just a bunch of keyboard warriors too afraid to do anything else but cower behind that screen.
would you guys refuse?? HELL NO..
bunch of hipokrit faggots..
I would think long and HARD about it.
.....Then I would politely decline her generous offer of free and casual sex coz I'm afraid of contracting AIDS, Hepatitis C, herpes, lice, Chlamydia or other STDs from such a slut.
.......I may be her 10,001-th "victim".
Sue Lynn may cause 'in-su-lin' addiction, like Tiger's sex-addiction.
In conclusion, I prefer to have "safe" sex with my wife.
"Don't tweet about how much you hate your job/boss (your future employer might be your Twitter follower), petty fights with your partner or when you're taking a dump. SERIOUSLY, NO ONE GIVES A SHIT."
As if i give a shit about ur opinion on that bowl of bangkok noodles...
ppl go on tweeter, let them be also la.
in the end its the public who reads. its not like she's forcing ppl to read her posts. its her right as a human to express/write on whatever platform she has access to as long as she's doing so without crossing the line. perhaps some of u have lots of opinions and no where better to express them coz no one will be reading anyways if u're posting on ur own site/blog. what a pity
sassy sue u rely make food hot and spciey on the table...2 tumbs up
ReaL food critics are ones that are written in the...
sorry WJ.
