Designers VS Gold

I'm sure you know someone who is a bagaholic, I mean a person who is crazy over designer handbags. I'm sure you can associate a bagaholic with someone you know. I have a friend who is exactly like that. Seriously, this is an expensive habit to keep. Every time she sees something new in store that caught her attention, then it will definitely go in her 'to buy' list. By now she might have own dozens of designer bags already, but she keep wanting more. As crazy as it sounds, i think this obsession is actually not very healthy. LOL.

There'll forever be 'new arrival' in store, 'new design' of designer bags every season, how can one buy them all? A good bag can easily last a few years, if not tens of years. Why would she need so many bags? So, she might be rich, that's one reason. But if it's me, then I would really rather invest in gold bullion, and see my money 'grow'. Like it or not, no matter how expensive a designer bag is, it has no second hand value, even if there is, it's very little. Don't you agree, one can even keep the gold for future generation, but with bags, that is so not the case.

Indon loving gold

I don't know about other maids, but every maid that ever worked with us, loves to buy gold- necklace, bangles, earrings, even buy gold bullion. What they Indonesian claims is that gold from here is much better, in terms of color and variety of designs. Back in their town, there are very limited designs while here, you can practically find chains, earrings and pendants of all shapes and sizes.


So while we were out shopping over the weekend, our maid was so tempted by the window display of gold accessories at the goldsmith. She asked if she can go in and have a look, of course I allowed her. She was so keen on getting yet another pair of necklace, my sister and I bought one for her last year as she has been a great helper. She deserves it, but to buy another one, she'll have to wait another year or two, gold prices now are so expensive. Unless the money is coming out from her own pocket.

Getting older...

These days, I'm so occupied with the kids and my online shop that I almost forgot that my Birthday is coming. Bad huh? It wasn't until my aunt asked me if I have anything planned for Saturday, and I asked, "what's the occasion?" And she replied me, "Oh my, it's your Birthday!", I went, "Oh, this Saturday.."


Erm, well.. for someone who is coming to the big three zero, I guess there's nothing to shout about, it feels like I'm moving on to the next decade already, and not excited at all. How do you feel when you celebrate your big ZERO birthday? Especially 40,50,60,70, 80 even 90 or 100, I'm sure it's not something people look forward to -getting old that is. Unless, if you tell me, old is gold, gold as in like bullion, then I really don't mind getting it at all. LOL!

Proud of you, son

I'm so proud of my son, he scored 100 marks for his Maths, English and Bahasa exam. 94 marks with his Chinese. When I went to collect his exam paper at the Parents Teachers Meet, his Chinese teacher told me that he has improved a lot compared to when he first started his 5yo class. But he's a little over confident, hence the many mistakes in his papers. Erm, don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.
His class teacher told me that he's a very good boy in school, pays attention when teacher is teaching (i like!) and every chance he got, he'll get near to his 'gf' Cass. Oh boy, at 5yo? Seriously??

Good day

It's been a fruitful day for me. I've uploaded more photos of my product to my FB page and also to the website, I also did some headbands, and bought some more supplies like pins and clips. But it's not an easy start, I'm doing this all on my own without a help from the world. It's a one man show, erm, in this case, one woman show! I'm the owner, the worker, the designer, the blogger, the crafter (oh, what a name for someone who does craft, sounds weird, don't you think) and also the one who will be doing the packaging right up to delivery or posting it.


Where do I get the time to do all this with a 5 yo cheeky boy and a one year old baby girl? I'm proud I did it. Money and gold bullion don't just drop down from the sky. We got to earn it, to me it's all hardwork. I believe one day it'll pay off.

Hip replacement went wrong?

Gosh, this is bad! Have you heard of someone you know with a hip replacement surgery went wrong? It was estimated that over 90,000 such cases was recalled due to a faulty DePuy Hip Implant. To make things worse, these people might need a second and third correction surgery. Thank God when my sister had her knee surgery, everything went well. Well, she was bruised and limping for 2 weeks after the surgery but thank God she had a full recovery. Can't even imagine her limping because of some faulty implant! That's scary.



If I were one of these unlucky people, I will sue the company to the very last dollar they have. Make them bankrupt. Oh well, that's not quite possible actually. But at least make them pay. Get the best hip recall lawyer there is ever. My Texas Truck Accident Attorney might even know where I can get help from. Help is so on the way. Find them here.
