* For a good cause

I started online shopping since I came to Netherlands 2 years ago. Recently, I shop online so frequently. Main reason is I cannot find a time to go out. I have a 3 months old baby and a 3 years old toddler to handle. It will be so troublesome to go shopping with them. Hence, I choose to buy thing online. I am glad to find this www.eengoedezaak.nl.  What is so special about this site? Online shoppers can actually do charity when they shop! We pay the normal store price for the product but the retailer donates part of the purchase to the cause that we have decided to support. Sound great, right?

aGoodCause has just launched globally- in 8 countries. To become an AidMaker and support charity, please click on the link for your specific country and download the software onto your computer. Because I am in Netherlands, here's the link for us: www.eengoedezaak.nl.

PPP: Special Number plate

My new house is going to complete soon. Heard that we can get the key in a few weeks' time. Which mean, we are able to see the house when we go back to Malaysia. For my new house, of course I wish to have something special. I found that we actually can create Number Plates - Funny & Novelty from this site: http://www.4plates.co.uk. From the site, you can design and create your own unique picture plate. The site is very easy to understand and the step to create a picture plate is easy and most importantly, it's user friendly. You just need to enter your text and select pictures or background that you like. It's that simple! I think I will try to create a special picture plate for my futere new home! :-D

Finally...

After 16 months of waiting, we finally receive a letter from IND stated that our application for temporary resident permit in Netherlands is approved! Yes, I can go home on 1st Jan! In another 21 days, I will be on my way back to Malaysia. Oh, I miss my family so much! I am sooooo happy now! I am going to spend 3 months in Malaysia... I want to eat a lot of nice food in Malaysia... I don't want to cook when I am in Malaysia... muahahaha... I am VERY HAPPY NOW!!!!

PPP: The invisibleSHIELD

I only have a handphone. I do wish to get an ipod long ago but still no action has been taken. Why? Because I am pretty sure that if I have an ipod, my tomboy girl will sure want to play with it. She already treat my handphone as her toy, I do not wish my new ipod have the same fate as my handphone. Anyway, with invisibleSHIELD, I think my wish to own an ipod may come true soon. The invisibleSHIELD is a clear film that protects your iPod or iPhone from scratches. It's great because it doesn't add any bulk to your device like any other ipod case, but yet it provides great protection. Don't you think this is a great protection to your ipod?

Sick!

It's winter now. Weather is cold. So, Anne is sick. The mother is sick. Daddy also not feeling well now. We stay at home most of the time.... Anyway, after 2 weeks of runny nose, Anne is getting better now... But, this lazy mommy just too lazy to bring her out. We need at least 15 minutes to dress up... Put on clothes one by one... very tired leh!!! Better to stay in our warm house! Hehehe...

She needs more friends...

At the Sinterklaas Party, I found that Anne was pretty slow in warming up with other kids. When others were playing together, she would stand a side and watch! Yes, watch only. After I join in and play with the kids, she then only join in. And then slowly she can play with them without me, with condition I am near by. She loves to play with kids, but she is pretty slow in mixing with them. When others already feeling tired, she just started getting high! We need to send her to school so that she can have more friends to play with. She looks pity when she is alone.

PPP: It's shopping time!!

I can't believe that it's year end now. I love year end! Year end means festival season. Year end also mean winter sales will start soon! I need to buy all presents for my friends and family now! I am glad that Coupon Chief is a place I can find a lot of discount coupons. I need it to save more money! :-D

Loong is searching for a new laptop. I think I can get this Dell Coupons for him. As for Anne, she loves Dora the Explorer now. I shall get her related books or toys from Nickelodeon Store using their discount coupons. What should I buy for myself? Let me think first!



Scrapbooking

I fall in love with scrapbooking. I spent a lot of my free time doing scrapbooking and searching for nice paper online. As you can see, I start to slow down in writing blog entry. Not enough time for me to do others thing if I spent most of my free time playing with Photoshop! I just got a new copy of Photoshop CS version 10! I am like addicted to Photoshop now... I love to see all my scrapping in my computer... Hehehe....

PPP: Hotel Reservations

I like to travel. I wish to visit most of the European Country during my 3 years stay in Netherlands. Since I came here, I have communication problem! People here prefer to speak Dutch! I do not know Dutch! That's why I started to shop online. I am glad to find this Hotel Reservations website, where I can make online booking and reservation to hotel in most of the European Country! The best part is, I even can get cheaper room rate from the website! Then I can save my money for other purpose. Great, right?

Sinterklaas Party

We just got back from Sinterklaas Party. Sinterklaas is Dutch People's own Saint. It was a fun event where children can sing and dance together with Sinterklaas and his helper - Black Pieters. Anne got a present from Sinterklaas. It's a Baby Set. She likes it! All children have a present, even adults also get a small present which is an alphabet chocolate. Nice huh! :-D

PPP: Holiday to New Zealand

I love to travel. I mentioned many time that if I go for a holiday, I prefer a place which is natural, peaceful and out of the city life. I wish to go to a place where I can let my children run wildly in an open space, not squeezing in a bus or a train. One of my wish is to go for a New Zealand Holidays. New Zealand is famous for her nature environment. How I wish I can go there to enjoy the clean air and relax myself for a city life. May be I should try to book a flights to Wellington from Dialaflight. Dialaflight is a leading independent UK travel company offering flights, hotels & travel ideas worldwide. With Dialaflight, I am sure I can have a great time enjoying my holidays in anywhere in the world!

Looking for cheap holiday deal? Try Dialaflight!

Stupid Student!

I must admit that I am a very stupid student in the Dutch class I attend. Main reason is I do not put much efford to learn Dutch! I am sure I will not stay here after Loong graduate, that's why I am so lazy to learn Dutch. I just want to spent my free time wisely! :-P

I want to jot down some Dutch word starting from today. Most of them can count so well already, duh~ why they so hardworking one???

PPP: Fountains

We are now staying in an apartment. We do not have a garden. Anne loves to run in the garden downstairs, she loves fountains too. She will look at the water splashing out from a fountain happily. I bet she will jump into the water if I did not stop her from doing so. May be I can consider to intall Wall Fountains for my future new home. I do not think my tomboy girl can jump into a wall foundtain, right?

My own cookbook?

I am not a good cook. I was forced to cook after we came to Netherlands. After one year of "training", I start to enjoy cooking. I will look for new recipes online and try it at home. I even will learn new recipes from TV shows!

I prefer to cook Chinese food, not western food. Anyway, in a western country, it's not easy for me to get all the ingredients I need. I always have to change the recipe a bit to suit with the ingredients that I have or I can get here. I must say that cooking is a adventurous work! You have to be brave enough to change the ingredients! I failed a few times, but there were times that the food I cooked turn out to be very nice and special! I wish I can jot down all the food that I had cook for the past one year until the day I go back to work! I hope the book will be thick enough for me to show my children!!

After trying a lot of Taiwan and China recipes, I started to get interested in baking! I am looking for a good Cake Recipes books. I wish I can bake a cake for my husband on his coming birthday! But first... I need to get an oven!! :-D
