PPP: Romantic Husband?

When we were still in boy friend and girl friend relationship, we were poor university students. I came from Sarawak. The only way for me to go back to my home town is by plane. That time, the air ticket was pretty expensive, thus I only went back to my home town during semester break which was 1 month and 3 months break. One month was okay for a couple to stay apart. But 3 months! How we maintain our relationship? By writing love letters. We wrote to each other at least twice a week. Together with his love letter, he would give me some little surprise like a hand made bookmark, a book for me to read or just a little short encouraging notes.

But, since I become his wife, he never write any letter to me or does any romatic act to please me. I think I shall recommend him to read RomanceForEveryone.com to learn how to be a romantic husband! Anyway, I do enjoy reading back all the love letters he wrote to me before.

岁月风云 is ending soon.

I have been watching this Hong Kong series for nearly 2 months, I think. Later, I will be watching episode 54 which means I only have another 6 episode to go. The story line has become so exciting now. I can't wait to see how's the bad guy - 危永标's ending. He is so bad that he lied to his wife, betrayed his brother and cheated his parents just to get what he wants. Are there anyone who is as bad as this 危永标 in the world? I hope no.

If person who uploaded the series can upload the series on time next week, I will be watching the last episode next Thursday!! Cannot wait... cannot wait!!!! I want to know the ending soooooon!

PPP: Home Insurance

I wish that our house in KL will be ready soon. Heard from other house buyer that we might can get the keys end of the year. I am happy to know this news. At least we might be able to see our own house by ourself since we are planning to go back end of this year. If the house is ready to hand over, this mean, we also need to fork out a HUGE amount of money for some legal fees and miscellaneous fees or expenses. Beside that, we sure need to buy a house insurance for our new house.

Insurance can be complicated, but now you can get an online home insurance online and get a 10% discount.Their home policy even comes with the following free benefits:
  • free Legal Expenses Insurance, up to £50,000

This post is to complain my husband!

Normally I will let Anne drinks from a straw. Her drinking bottle also a straw type bottle. Recently, she has been showing interest to drink from a cup. So, I started to let her drink from a cup instead. Just now, before she went to bed (she already wear her pyjamas), she asked for water. I had washed her drinking bottle, so I let her to drink from a cup! When a toddler drink from a cup, the possibility of water split out from the cup is high. If the clothes get wet, change lah!! What's the big deal? Do he needs to scold me just because I let Anne drink for a cup and she wet her pyjamas? Duh~~

很深的學問

Another meaningful articel for you to ponder. Sorry that I only have mandarin version.

假如你不會替人捲繃帶,就不可以去觸人家的傷處。-赫德

有個女士對我說,當她丈夫過世之後,以前總在一起玩的一對夫妻,喪禮完,就再也沒去看她。有時候,她甚至覺得那對老朋友在避著她,即使到她鄰居家,也不順路過去探望一下。她很氣,認為「人在人情在」,丈夫死了,朋友就不認她了。過了幾年,那家的丈夫也死了。居然沒隔幾天,那女人就去看她:「妳知道妳丈夫死了之後,我們為什麼沒來嗎?」那女人拉著她的手:「我們其實好想來。但是我丈夫說,妳丈夫生前向他借過錢,恐怕妳知道。」她點了點頭:「我知道。」那女人笑笑:「我們很怕我們來,會讓妳想到那筆錢,以為妳丈夫死了,我們急著來討債。」那女人丈夫的遺言是「錢沒多少,不必還了。」看了這個故事,你想想,換作你,當那對老朋友不再去看你的時候,你是不是也會一樣地怨他們,甚至罵他們?

同樣的道理---

某人正念大學的兒子出車禍死了。兒子生前總到家裡玩的同學,便再也不上門。兒子的女朋友,也不見了。當你罵他們「不夠朋友」的時候,是不是也該想想,如果他們上門,又如何?你原來淡忘了兒子的死,看到那些年輕人還生龍活虎,你是不是又勾起感傷,拉著他們,又落了淚?他們見你哭,看到你牆上的照片,是不是也要傷心。人性在這時候,就可能躲避。不是他們無情,是因為他們不知「如何自處」,也不願勾起彼此的傷痛。當你的事業失敗,那些以前的老朋友就避不見面,不也有同樣的可能嗎?往壞處想,他們怕你伸手借錢。往好處想,他們怕傷了你的自尊。往壞處想,他們不再找你出去玩。往好處想,你倒了,窮了,還能維持過去的排場嗎?他們拉著你,要不要你出錢,會不會傷了你的自尊?再往另一個角度想---他們找你,你「打腫臉充胖子」,有必要嗎?大樹被吹倒了,扶起來之前,先得把枝子鋸掉一些。當有一天,你不如意了,千萬不要去硬撐場面。那樣做,你累,別人也累;錢累,心也累。碰到老朋友,你也不要躲避。你可以坦白說出自己的處境:「我窮了,玩不起了。」人家要請你,你可以說「我現在必須把握每一分鐘,想辦法東山再起。」於是,你窮,窮得有志氣,窮得不畏怯。跟那些老朋友相處,你能很泰然,他們也能很坦然。「十年河東,十年河西。」每個人都有得意時,也有失意時。老朋友發了,不見了,要想:「他忙。」老朋友垮了,避不見面,要想:「他難。」如果你很得意,遇到以前的朋友,千萬少談眼前,多談過去,別人才會覺得你仍然念舊。

朋友是你的資產!一個失意人,能在一群得意人間談笑風生,略無慚色,才是有骨氣;一個得意人,能在一群失意的朋友間,讓人想不到他的得意,才是會做人。

Where is my key??

This morning, after came back from the weekly open market, I failed to use my key to open the main entrance's door. I intercom another Malaysian who is staying in the same building with us to open the door for me. After we (Anne and I) enter our room, I was busy arranging my thing and she requested me to give her my key. I gave her! This is the BIG mistake.

I totally forgot about my key after I gave my key to Anne. Then, when Loong came back from his technical visit to Belguim, I told him about my key failed to open the main entrance. He asked me to give him the key because he wanted to try it later. Only then I suddently remember that I passed my key to Anne. I asked Anne where she put my key, she looks blur.

I search high and low, search every drawer that she can reach, all cabinet, all boxes, even inside our fridge. No, cannot find it! If I lost the key, I have to pay Euro 50 for a new set! I don't want lah!! Then, Loong asked me have I check Anne's backpack? I did, but not so detail. Normally she will throw a lot of "rubbish" into her backpack. But I couldn't recall she ever play with her backpack today! Ok, last hope, I dig everything in her backpack out. Then... ta-ta-ta-ta... The key lying peacefully in her backpack. How stupid I am! Wasted so many time and energy to search the whole room... I should start with her backpack! OK, next time I know where to look for my lost item!

Lesson learnt: Never let your children play with your key!

I hate computer virus! When I was a student, I need to use computer in computer lab to do my assignment. I needed to do scanning before and after my work.

PPP: Writing Service

I am not a good writer because I do not have a good foundation in English. When I need to write an essay, I need a longer time to re-read and re-edit what I write. This is one of the reason that I dare not take up a Master Course here. Many people commented that I should at least get a Master Degree in Netherlands since I am so free at home. But, I have no confident to write my thesis in English. I might need a very long time and full attention to do this. Then I might ignore my girl most of the time.

When I found this Custom Research Papers writing service, I was shocked. They actually will assigned a writer to help you to write about your topic. What you need to do is to keep contact and give related information to the writer. Then the assigned writer will come out with a paper that is just like what you want!

Switched - 幸运星

I am watching another Singapore series "Switched" 幸运星.

The story is mainly about a chinese physiotherapist who has a small but happy family, with two daughters and a son. His eldest daughter, Xinyu helps him to run his Chinese medicine shop and is also attending Chinese Medicine classes. She is kind hearted and righteous in nature, but isn’t pretty to look at. Her younger sister, Xinhui is blessed with both good looks and intellect, and is a popular performing artiste. Their younger brother Zhiheng is a university student who loves music. There has been an obvious difference in their parents’ attitude towards the two sisters since they were children. The younger daughter has been doted on and spoilt, while the elder daughter is neglected even though she is always giving in to her younger sister. This causes her to have inferiority complex and she can’t help but feel resentful deep down inside. One day, an angel or 精灵appear to be a friend for Xinyu. She then switched Xinyu and XinHui because wanted to teach XinHui a lesson and let Xinyu to try to be a pretty lady.

So far I only watch until episode 6 where their indentity just been switched. I think the story a bit like a movie - Face Off. One day one episode to watch... I might need 2 weeks to finish this series....

Shopping cart software

My degree project was to build an e-commerce website. That time, e-commerce just started to get more attention. Although I did an e-commerce website, I never shop online. I just couldn't put full trust to the internet security.

Then, I started to travel with Air-Asia, our local cheap-fare airline. It's easier to buy ticket online. So, my first online purchase was to purchase my air ticket. I still seldom did any online shopping until I started to join an online breastfeeding forum. At the forum, I got to know a lot of stay at home mother who started their business at home. They set up a website to sell some mother and baby item online. I started to love to shop at those e-commerce website to look for some breastfeeding accesories there.



It's not easy to set up a website with shopping cart function. But now you can trust the shopping cart software from http://www.ashopcommerce.com/. You can built up your own e-commerce site easily and put you efford in other aspect and leave all the IT related issue to ashopcommerce!
