Ever seen a sour grape bride?

What a night. Hubs and I just got back home from a friend's wedding dinner. The bride is oh, such a sour grape. I hardly see her smile, let alone go around talking to guests at her own wedding. She just sat there all night long, and didn't even move an inch when the groom came over our table to greet us. So not friendly. Anyway, it's been a wonderful night catching up with all of hub's rally buddies. Amelia, a friend's daughter, brought along her Nintendo game boy, her portable DVD player with lots of DVD games. At only 9 years old, she's such a gadget girl. She even mentioned to me that she's a programmer! Oh yes, in her exact word "PROGRAMMER!" She's a robot programmer, her daddy confirmed it. I have no idea what she was talking about, it all sounds too complicated for me, too much for me to absorb in one night. She told me that she's one of the robotic programmer, you know how she makes the robot go when she program GO and how instruct the robot to twist/turn/flip or whatnot. Little genius even represents her school to compete with other programmers. I'm impressed!
I entertained her while her daddy had a good time drinking with all his buddies. And oh, by the end of the night, the groom is so drunk, the bride looked even more pissed. LOL. Who cares right.

Come Join Dockers Contest

Growing up, I didn't get the chance to buy nice decent clothings, I always get hands-me-down from both my elder sister. So you can imagine how much I envied my friend's Dockers pant. They looked just perfect on my friends, and I thought I must get a pair one day. I did but just one pair. How nice would it be if I get a chance to win lots and lots of Dockers so I can put on a different pair everyday. ::wishful thinking::

Now everyone can stand a chance to win a Dockers contest by submitting your own style of Dockers TV Commercial, you never know what they are looking for. I love the Dress Up commercial by Bwslocombe where the wife cannot resist her husband's pair of Dockers nevermind that it's a male pants. In the end, the husband ended up in his wife's dress. LOL. Too ute. Go see it for yourself at http://www.nbc.com/Dockers, there's dozens more to see. So, if you think you have a talent in shooting your own video, then give Dockers contest a try. I'd love to see you win. Oh, did I mentioned that if you won, you stand a chance to appear in NBC and "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno". How cool would that be? It might even kick start your talent as a movie producer.

My big fat family

Everyone who knows my family well will know that my family members are all NOT skinny. We're either huge/flabby/voluptous/bulky/fat/ or out of shape. I reckon I fall in the 'flabby and out of shape'. Elder sis loves to blame her 'bigger frame' on our long-gone grandpa. She always must emphasis that she has got grandpa's body when someone were to comment on her big frame. I don't know who else to blame, because right after I gave birth to my baby boy to this moment I'm typing this, there's no one second that I'm any skinnier than my twin sister or even my mother. Blame it on the pregnancy sometimes works.
But the way I see it, I have a family who loves food more than loving a nice curvy body shape. Oh yes, we love to be skinny, but everytime we smell something good, or when we have cravings (which we ALWAYS HAVE) we forget all about wanting a nice skinny body. No wonder we're all huge, and getting fatter everyday. SIGH!

Shape your future with myUsearch

If I ever get the chance to make my own decision, without the influence of what others has to say, I'm very sure I won't ever choose to study Business and Information Technology ever again. Though it somehow makes it easier for me to handle some easy peasy html code in my blog, I cannot imagine myself doing anything else IT related.

How I wished there was myUsearch back then. You know how students from out from high school normally have no idea what they want to be, let alone what subject to pick or which University to go. Wouldn't it be so much easier if everyone gets to pen down their thoughts and answer a questionairre to give them a clear idea of what their field of interest is. And the good thing is, it is totally free. All you prospective college student, give it a try. Let this shape your future the way you always wanted it to be. So back to where I left, I wish I can be a professional interior designer/ profesional photographer. Well, at least now I'm quite a professional in blogging. Not too bad.

My twins sista, Butt뮃lyKÏςςёŠ™

Is it not OK to get straight to the point?

Last evening, I got a call from someone looking for me, so I thought this must either be someone I know or she really has got some serious business with me. You know, like a call from the tele-banker telling me that my loan is almost due, because I always wait till the very last minute to just do just about anything. That's just me. But no, she's not calling on behalf of any bank, but a hotel, offering me a free 2 days 1 night stay at the 5 star hotel. When I asked if there's anything I have to do, like listening to a free talk, she said no. Well, so how do you explain it when she said that I need to be there with my husband (mind you, that's a must) to collect the voucher, and there's a 45 minutes wait while they do the voucher processing, meanwhile they'll just serve us refreshment. Sounds so catchy. They must either trained their staff that way, or they seriously need more staffs to handle their voucher processing department. Perhaps it'll be good for them to get help from the executive search firm. I'm not buying into her not-so-straight forward talks, I said, no thanks and hang up.

Sick little boy

Teary eyes, runny nose. That's my little boy now. His eyes is so teary and wet, the tears just roll down his cheek like it's the most natural thing in the world. Yeah, talk about gravity eh. I don't blame it on the ice-creams or the cold drink he had, because he had them so very often, I don't think that can suddenly become the culprit. Well, just blame it on the bad weather, can?
Ok boy, we need some flu medication for you. Great, another trip to Guardian Pharmacy. If we go there any often, people might start thinking we're homeless.

I want a new HDD

It's almost 2 weeks now, and my personal computer is not fixed yet. I sent it over to the pc guy 2 weeks ago, and I haven't heard from him ever since. It didn't help that he was and still is very busy with his Microsoft seminars, or he totally forgotten about my pc under his bed. Well, I think so. I cannot find a better explanation when hubby asked what took the pc guy so long to get it fixed? Some minor problems with the Hard Disk Drive and problem with Internet connection. If it's such a hassle to get it repaired, then maybe I should call to get him to change to a new HDD, since Hard Disk Drive are so cheap nowadays.
It's even cheaper if he were to get the Discount Drives straight from the computer parts dealer. Those days, it cost thousands to buy a personal computer, but nowadays with a budget of a thousand ringgit, you can actually get a very good and high performance pc. Enough said, I'll call him first thing tomorrow morning. I'm so sick of waiting.

Not my favourite day of the week

Life on a Monday is usually the same for me. ::yawn:: I'm sure most if not all people feel the same way. I must say that though I'm not a working mother, I hate Monday just as other people on earth. It's like you play a video of yourself for 7 days in a week, and come every Monday, you repeat it. ::yawn again::

At least my Monday wasn't that bored, I went shopping. Bought myself a pair of black heels at 50% discount, Eubos Body Shampoo for Shern which is oh so expensive, but he has been using it since he was a newborn, so just stick to it for now. Oh, I reformat my iphone too, after I noticed that it hangs so very often, and thanks to Steve, he installed lots of new applications for me. And he even taught me how to activate my EDGE which I never knew how. Oh no, just as I finished typing that sentence above, my iphone hangs again. Bugger. I'm getting sleepy, I'll just leave everything else for tomorrow for now. ::yawn::

Off they went to China

Some might think that now is not a good time to go tour China because of the recent earthquake but that's what my close family just did. They landed safely in Shanghai last night, checked in to their Cheap Shanghai Hotels, all inclusive in their tour package. They'll be there for 10 days, 9 nights, with a tour guide to bring them about.
You might be wondering why are they not in Beijing, seeing that the Olympics will start soon and the city has undergone marvelous transformation over the years. That's because holidaying in Beijing right now is very expensive, it might be easier to look for Cheap Beijing Hotels but everything else is just much more expensive than other big cities in China. Nowadays, more and more people would rather go shopping in Hong Kong, though one might say that it's impossible to get a decent Cheap Hong Kong Hotels. Who knows? But if you were to ask me if I would rather go shopping in China or Hong Kong, I'll surely go for Hong Kong. There might be plenty of Cheap China Hotels but shopping experience is Hong Kong is incomparable to shopping in China. What do you think?

The Zero fare deal

AirAsia is having a free flight promotion to Perth. Ticket is absolutely free, travelers only need to pay for the tax and airport charges. The last time I checked, tax plus airport charges is within the range of RM500-RM600 which is dirt cheap. We went to Perth last year for my brother's graduation, all 9 of us stayed at my brother's rented house. Free Perth Accomodation, how could we resist?

Anyway, we're lucky that we have relatives all over the places. So, whenever we travel, we always could stay over at relatives place. This way, we get to save tonnes of money in terms of paying for the hotel and spend it on enjoying good food and entertainment too. I'd love to travel to Sydney one day, to my sister's in laws place. One thing for sure, I don't have to worry about Sydney Accomodation because she will take care of it. Some might not be so lucky to have relatives overseas, so they no choice but to stay in a hotel, but from my experience, it's better to check hotel rates online before making any bookings as hotel rates such as Melbourne Accomodation and Brisbane Accomodation varies depending on season.

Why am I the only one getting diarrhea?

My day didn't went as well as expected. I had a very bad episode of diarrhea. Yes, very bad. Do I need to elaborate more? I don't think so. We had plans to go have tea, eat roti canai, but I was so sleepy, I wanted to take a five minutes super nap but it turned out for a decent 1 hour. And when I got up of bed, the sky was dark. No, I didn't take such a long nap I thought. Oh ya, the sky turned dark, and it began to pour. I rushed to the toilet and there I stayed for a good 30 minutes. In my head, I kept thinking, what did I had just now that upset my tummy so badly?" I just don't know, because everything I had for lunch, the entire house had it, so why just me getting diarrhea. Whatever. We'll just have to keep our plans for another day.

I refund Meiji Pucca

Meiji Pucca Choc Pretzel

No joke. We went shopping for groceries today. My little boy did a little shopping for himself, he took yakults, 6 cups of yogurts, 2 trays of tou foo ( one of his favourite food), 2 boxes of Nestle Mat Kool Icy Grape and Superblaster, and also a packet of Meiji Pucca Chocolate. I didn't bother to look through what he chucked in the shopping trolley until much later at the checkout. For crying out loud, this Meiji Pucca is 5 ringgit! Not that I cannot afford buying it, I think it's a rip off, given that Meiji Hello Panda which is equally nice is only selling about 2.20-2.90 ringgit max.

Meiji Hello Panda (vanilla flavour being my favourite)

I refund it. Who cares, it's my consumer's rights. I like I buy, if I'm not happy with my purchase, I refund no matter what the amount.

Every little girl's dream

It is every girls dream to grow up to be a princess, with the diamond tiaras, jewelery, nice puffy dresses and all. But that dream hardly comes true. In real life, a princess life is not so magical after all. They are subject to constant scruteneering by the public eye, and has certain standards and obligations that they must adhere too, they might not be able to go shopping like us, without their bodyguards tagging along 3 feet behind them. So consider yourself blessed if you're just a normal citizen like me, we might not have as many pearl necklaces, but otherwise, we're perfectly happy, aren't we?

It is understable to hear a 5 year old little girl address herself as a princess, even my 3 year old cousin thinks that she's Cinderella, everything she owns has a picture of Cinderella or Snow White on it, be it a pencil case, her school bag, her dresses, even her pyjamas. And worse, she insists that her mother buys her a fake Chocolate Diamonds tiara and a magic wand. My oh my! Kids like that sure got too much influence by watching cartoon. Nevermind about that, they are just kids right. But what I don't get is, why some parents did the extreme by naming their baby girl 'princess'. Come on, think about it for a minute, when she's one or three, if might look totally cute to be called a princess, what about when she's in her thirties or forties, calling someone a princess will just sound so silly, like hey "Princess Tan". Big Eww. I will never ever name my daughter 'Princess'. That is just so lame! Enough said for now, I'm still hoping that one day, I'll have my own daughters,

It's been a great day for us here

I spent so many hours in bed today I almost neglected my son. Poor boy. I was just so sleepy, even after so many hours of sleep, so when hubs was taking a nap, I jumped into bed with him too. How nice is it to curl up in bed with your dearest husband? Very nice! :) But I consider today a great day, cos we brought the kids for gelato ice-cream at one of the bakery in the neighbourhood, I must say it tastes damn good and dirt cheap too. What about 5.90 for 2 scoops? Good deal eh. You know you have to pay 10.90 for 2 scoops at the shopping mall. Altogether we had 6 scoops, between the 5 of us, plus many slices of cakes and buns too. Burp! And for dinner, hubs brought us for a very hearty meal. Burp again. Hope your day was a good one too. I love public holiday!

Men who cheats

I wonder if those husbands who has love affairs actually feel guilty about cheating to their wives? I bet at some point, their wives will eventually find out. At that point, is it too late to live with the regrets? I wonder. But I'm sure it's not entirely man's fault. Sometimes when two people see too much of each other, they tend to develop a feeling for each other, people like bosses and their secretary or personal assistant. Call it lust. Especially when they travel often together on business trips, stay in Hotels in Rome, the romantic city or Hotels Amsterdam the Sex City, thousand of miles away from their wives, it's all too easy to break the rule.

Not only that, some husbands love to have their little weekend getaway together with their girlfriend in Hotels London just to be away from their wives. That's absolutely unfair to the wife. Why not end your marriage so your wife could go on with his life rather than all wrapped up in your lies while you're away at some Hotels in Barcelona kissing some other babe? Come on, give everyone a break, can?

Free flights everyone!

So what if Air Asia advertise FREE FLIGHTS TO ALL INTERNATIONAL ROUTES, the thing is flight ticket might be cheap, but you know the real cost of traveling is paying for the hotels? Say, you pay for a 300 dollars flight ticket to Rome, but you have any idea how much a night stay in Rome Hotels cost? You know you won't travel half way around the globe just to be in Europe for a day. So throw in the cost of having to stay in Dublin Hotels and London Hotels, that getaway sure going to cost you an arm and a leg.

Just a little advise from me, advance hotel booking saves you a lot of money and it's much cheaper than those walk-in customers rate. And especially in popular tourist spots like Paris where Hotels Paris are always fully-booked, you must always plan your trip, there's totally no point of traveling when you can get cheap flight tickets but ended up with no place to stay.

Now I know, being fat is not OK!

I've been feeling like I'm 100bricks heavier now! I can now feel the pain those obese people are going through. Not the physical pain, but the emotional stress that they have to carry around. Phew! Though I'm not THAT fat I need therapy or a bypass surgery, I still feel that I can be a lot more better than this. Sigh. Life is no fun when you have excess fats you hang around your waist. It's not so much of how people uuhhs and aahs about how much weight you've gained, but because I'm a superbly self conscious person, people don't even have to tell me that, I can see that "YOU'RE FAT" message written exclusively for me, on their forehead.

Therefore, I'm determine to get back into shape. Say, signing up for GYM! Oh, my mother won't even believe me if I were to tell her this. She has been pressuring me so much to exercise/ sign up for gym/ do sit ups/ go jogging but everything she said fell into deaf ears. I was like, it's my buldging belly and not yours, so if I'm ok with that, why not you? Finally I know having a bulging belly is NOT OK. I've came back to my senses. She's 101% right, clothes fits just so much more better and prettier on a nice body minus a flabby tummy. Hahaha. She's going to be very happy for me. I just know it.

All mommies having issues with daddies

I've been blog hopping a lot today, that's because I'm quite free today. Common topics I see are all Mother's Day related. Some mommies, like me, expected our husband to bring us to nice expensive dinner or buy us expensive pressie, I mean really expensive type like piaget watches. No doubt, everyone ended up in disappointment when our husband did nothing to cheer us up on Mother's Day. My husband is honest enough to tell me that if I'm ever expecting any present, then I got to wait till our son is old enough to buy me one. I think he meant that our son has to be old enough to appreciate me as his mother! Well well, I get that. What can I expect from a two years old little boy now. But still, I'm the happiest mom on Mother's Day because my son wished me Happy Mother's Day, he even throw in a great big hug and a kiss on the lips for mommy dearest. I love you, darling!

Malaysia Ex PM now a blogger

No one is too old to blog. Ahem, like our all time favourite ex Prime Minister who now has take up blogging, I totally understand his wise decision. Nowadays, the Internet plays a very big role in influencing people's mind, because everyone is free to speak up. But of course, bloggers must be wise to tackle their topics unless they don't really mind ended up behind bars. Totally serious! Unlike in the press, where even daily news must go through certain level of scrutineering before it ended up in the printing line. Most of the things we read in the papers are only a little icing on a big slice of a cake. Having said that, we citizens really have no idea what's baking in the big oven up there. No one gets to see it, let alone share a tiny chunk of the cake. Well well, who I am to complain, really??

To Paris I want to go

We've been talking about going on a Paris trip since we first started dating, Now, 7 years later, we still haven't been there together. Hubby used to travel a lot to Europe for his business trip alone, he always chose to hire a car so that he can drive around France, given that it is easy to drive around because they have one of the world's most systematic driving system, and highways that takes you anywhere you want to go. Oh remember, France drives on the right side of the road.

On most trips, hubby never booked his hotel rooms in advance because like he said, Paris Hôtels are aplenty, and furthermore, it is more convenient to stay in hotels that catered to road travellers like him. Besides that, you'll be surpised that such hotels like Toulouse Hôtels and Marseilles Hôtels offers very affordable rates. I've been there once, and given that that was the first time we were in France, we did advanced booking on our Bordeaux Hôtels, because none of us dare to risk sleeping on the streets. If only I knew hubby back then. Nevermind. We'll go there again sometimes.

The Olympics Garden

Beijing Olympics is now less than 100 days away. With the Olympics torch already back home in China, the excitement is all high flying in the sky. I cannot help it, deep down inside my heart, a tiny part of it is so overjoyed that the Chinese is finally getting some decent world recognition. I'm not from Mainland China, though my ancestors were but I'm proud to call myself a Chinese.

Ok now I've definitely gone too far. This post is suppose to be on how Beijing took it all seriously even in gardening. The outcome is sure breathtaking. Simply fabulous.

The high flying job

I asked my cousin who did she quit her job as an air stewardess, and her answer is very straightforward. She said, "I cannot fly forever, one day down the road, she'll get kick and be stationed as a ground staff. So she'd rather quit now and start a career with a promising future. I understand. Over the years, she traveled to so many places others can only dream of. You name it, and chances are high that she've been there. The most enjoyable part of being an air stewardess is of course the chance to travel around the world and stay in those exotic Hotels in Venice or places like Madrid Hotels. It's every shopaholic's dream to go shopping in Milan, and of course, being an air stewardess saves you the money of having to pay for the accomodation in Milan Hotels yourself. So you tell me, how enjoyable an air stewardess life can be? Free flight, free stay no matter where you go, and you actually get paid doing it. Who cares if travelling to Barcelona is expensive, they still get to stay in those luxury rooms Barcelona Hotels has to offer.

I've got the bestseller Coach Bag

I finally bought it after so much hesitation. My very own Large Carly Signature by Coach. Apparently, this is also the bestseller in the boutique here in KL. My cousin Sam got it for me from Los Angeles, it's a lot cheaper there. I never buy anything expensive here in Coach stores cos you're actually paying double for everything you get in stores here. Guess I'm just lucky I've got a cousin who always travel to US. Alas, unlucky now, she just quit her job. Nevermind, we still have 2 pilots in our family who travels the world like no one's business. LOL :)

Check your Page Rank lately?

Surprise surprise. My blog Page Rank is back to 2, and I couldn't be happier. I did a check with various Google Page Rank checker just to make sure. Majority has a 2 on it. Yeah!

In my humble opinion, I think the best PR checker is Smartpagerank. as it gives you not only your page rank but also your blog traffic, bank links, indexed pages your blog has with Google/Yahoo/ MSN or such and it also has your website value. There's also this website value button and page rank button for you to put in your blog. Blogginginmypyjamas is only valued at $54, eh, what a shame.

Of course, there's also other PR checker you can use, like Blogflux, PRChecker.Info, free-pagerank-checker, checkpagerank and many more.

Let's get productive

So I figured that I need to spend my time at home a little more productive, besides blogging and doing paid post. I have always wanted to start my own online shop, sell whatnot things that I like, and of course it has to be profitable. Yes?

I do not have a silver spoon in my mouth. So it's best that I do something at my free time for some extra income. I grew up with my 5 siblings, we don't always get what we want, we worked for it, like helping mom with the house chores. I brushed my own shoe on Friday, and we help fold the laundry at most days. You can imagine growing up in such an environment has shaped us into quite decent people. ::wink:: There's nothing I can brag about myself really, I am a stay-at-home-mother to a two year old boy, so my everyday life is pretty much the same. Hopefully things can pick up from here. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

So everyone, I'm glad to announce to you my new blog, bearandberries is now officially up and running. Hopefully now that I have more traffic to my new blog, I'll make more effort to update it often.

Writing reviews at 3.33am

I'm getting ready to tuck myself in and then it struck me that I have a review I need to complete tonight. No! I mean at 3.33 in the morning.
I already let the task expired once, second time around, they might even ban me already. So I'm not taking any chances. Got to get my work done now. Gosh, but I'm just so sleepy. What's worse? My brain ain't working!

Data protection Solution

This is me blogging from my new personal computer. The old one was getting a little slow in processing and such, so trading it for a new one makes me one happy mommy today. Eh, there's a few issues I need to deal with right now, there's no Java inside, which is what the pc tells me everytime I want to download something. Arrgh. What Java?

And also, I reckon I need a good and reliable data protection solution, true real time CDP (continuous Data Protection), automated content synchronization, and secure remote archive is just what I needed right now to give me a peace of mind. No one wants a crashed pc because when that happens, nothing can be rescued. Tell you it's too late. I rather play it safe than to be sorry. I quite like the Online Data Protection offers I saw, and I might consider getting one soon.

Bring home the dough

I just don't get it. Why is it that man or is it a father loves to think that taking care of kids is a mother's responsibility. No? You don't think so? Oh shit, then is it just my man? Give them 20 minutes, horsey ride/piggy back, hoos and haas and a little over 5 minutes, they'll say, "Go to mamma, daddy wants to play computer games."

And to think that today is a public holiday, ya exactly, to public places he must go to meet his friends just like every other day. I'm telling you, he's just a typical 'bring home the dough' kind of man. Hell I didn't know he's not into this fatherhood thingy before we got married, too late to know it now. Bummer. I know he did put in a lot of effort into making our lives a little better everyday. But having said that, I wish he can take it easy on a public holiday, to chill out with us at home. But no, he has to be out. Again. Like he said, the money won't come rolling in to the house. He got his point there. A man got to do what a man got to do. That is to provide.

Cruises, don't you just love them?

I can dream about Titanic a thousand times, but the truth is I've never ever been on a cruise. Yeap, you read me right. Not on a tiny one, or a huge one like the Royal Caribbean. I can only imagine how much fun it is to be on one, to sail through the big deep blue ocean, inside one giant cruise. There's so much to do than just taking glances at the sea view, imagine rock climbing, ice skating when you're in the middle of the Carribean sea. Coolness.

If hubby has a week or two free off his busy schedule, I think it'll be nice for us to chill out together on a Princess Cruises. Imagine seeing the ice towers and dog sledding adventures of Alaska or get to a dozen more destinations when we do stop over at big cities with exotic beaches, unforgettable shopping trip and sightseeing. No jet lag so whatever, this is going to be an experience of a lifetime. It gets me all excited just thinking about it. Oh, the ever flowing buffet to bloat you up while you're on the Norwegian Cruise Lines, you can bet you'll be half a stone heavier when you're done seeing the whole. But then again, it'll be worth the trip. LOL.

A much needed break

1st May: Labour's Day where all labourers get a break!

Yahoooo... it's a holiday. Marcus and Shern woke up early just like every other schooling days, expect that today is not a schooling day. They gathered all their toys and emptied the entire bin in the centre of the living room, and create a havoc as usual. Boys, didn't I say I want to sleep in? As I'm typing this, dearest hubby is still curled up in bed catching up with his lack of sleep. Let him.

And my sister came in time for lunch to bring the kids to McD. All of them, Shern Marcus Sean Ian Zach Ryan but not Dylan. Dylan stayed back and we babysit him at home. We'll see what we can do later in the afternoon, my eldest sis has plans to bring the boys to see the monkey, again. But I'm not a monkey fan, I'll pass. Shopping sounds good for me.
You have a wonderful day too.

Cramps is getting up my head!

Right now, my mood and my period cramp is making me feel like a very sick cat. And my legs, it's like I could hang them high up in the ceiling, they are just so sore. I don't mind being jet away for a weekend in any Paris Hotels. Now, yes now. A little request though, a Hotel Paris with a view of Eiffel Tower, you know I need something to ease my cramps! A beautiful scenery won't hurt. Fantastic, Paris bed and breakfast and a shopping trip, I bet everything will be fine when I get up in the morning.Well, probably it's now way past bed time, and I'm half way to my dreamland. Good night for now.
