Heaven is So Real

I start reading Heaven is So Real sometime in 2005 and I did blog about it in my children’s blog. Until today, I still receive comments on Heaven is So Real in that post. The author of the book is Choo Thomas, a Korean-American lady who is currently living in the States. The book Heaven is So Real is all about her experience being brought to heaven and hell by Jesus, about her preparation and training by Jesus himself for the ministry that God has planned for her. The book is a wake up call to all Christians to prepare them for the second coming of Christ. Not all who call themselves Christian will go to heaven.

Drinkstar Water Filtration System

After much procrastination, I finally installed the Drinkstar Water Filtration System at home. Kenot tahan lar, every time see the water in the tub brownish in colour and on very bad days, my clothes will get the brownish (soil colour) stain during washing in the washing machine; then have to hand wash again to remove the stain.

The market price before the petrol hike is RM1,850 but I got special price because my soon-to-be brother in law is the sole distributor of this Drinkstar Water Filtration System in Melaka. ;)

drinkstar

Here is how the unit look like. I guess it is the same as other water filtration system.

drinkstar1

Closed up to prove that that is really Drinkstar Water Filtration System. :P

dirty

This is how dirty the water provided by PAM. So backwash is needed twice a week to clean it.

clean

After 5 minutes of backwash, clean already. Not 100% clean but sufficient lar. Sayang lar see the water all go to waste during backwash. So I don’t backwash until it is really clean.

With Drinkstar Water Filtration System, the water in the tub is crystal clear and my clothes is stain-free. :D

Webstore Selling Bento Tools

I came to know that a few bloggers are planning to start a web store. Should I start one too since this is another good way of earning some income from the net? Getting a website and setting up with a merchant account to accept all major credit cards wouldn’t be a problem with authorize.net. The only problem is what should I sell? Aha! Maybe I should sell Bento Tools and Accessories since many mommy bloggers are crazy about Bento-ing. :D I hope Bento is not a fad; here today, gone tomorrow.

Nap 3 hours; Slept 3 hours

I surprised myself when I woke up from my nap at 5.30pm yesterday. I went in to nap with my children around 2pm; more like forcing them to nap. If I don’t lay down with them they won’t nap at all; instead they will play the whole afternoon, sleep around 10pm and woke up very cranky the next day for school.

This is the first time I nap so long without waking up in between. My body and mind must be very tired. Anyway, I woke up feeling guilty; like I wasted so much time sleeping instead of working. So after my children went to bed at night; I start my night shift until 4am!

Set the alarm at 7am because I have to wake up to send my girls to school. I planned to cook noodle for their breakfast but I just couldn’t open my eyes even after rubbing them a few times. By 7.30am, I dragged myself out from the bed and cycled to buy Nasi Lemak for them. Cycling does help to keep me awake until now. :D

My body clock has gone haywire!

Paying Bills Online

“I am not working anymore.”

It feels good to tell those who asked. Hubby said that I shouldn’t call myself as a SAHM because most of the time I work; earning some decent income from the internet.

It has been my dream to work from home and being there for my children; just like my mom. When I was in Secondary school, being a housewife is one of my ambitions!

Working also mean that I have to pay bills; in fact, I am the one paying all the bills; from children kindergarten fees to the utilities bills; EVERYTHING! That is where online savings account comes in handy. All my work here is being paid to my account and paying bills meaning just transferring the required amount to the respectively payee.

Holiday Apartment in Melaka

That is what I am going to convert my apartment at Bukit Beruang, if I don’t get any tenant soon. Chances of getting one is very slim because the semester has started. Again, we are hoping for miracle.

We went to clean the apartment yesterday. It is much cleaner that hubby’s apartment. The only thing that we really need to clean is the fridge and we were blessed with some 5 cents coins and dunno what promotional items left in their room.

We hope that hubby new tenant will move over to mine because they have some financial problem. Mine is much cheaper than hubby’s of course. If not, it will be turned into Holiday Apartment. So, any one coming to Melaka for a holiday and needing a cheap place to stay, look for me ya. Got swimming pool too. :D

Papa’s Birthday

We just celebrated our father’s 63rd birthday 2 days ago. It was just a simple dinner at an open air restaurant in town; Handsome Seafood Restaurant. The dinner consist of just us, the siblings and our parent. Even that it was so difficult to get him to agree to go for the dinner. At first we wanted to go to Amigo that serves Western food; father disagrees because it was too expensive. Anyway, my father don’t really favor Western food, he prefers rice and dishes so, to a Chinese restaurant we went. My mom just informed me just now that he really enjoyed the food that was served. It was much better than the food at Portuguese Settlement which we went to celebrate my mom’s 53rd birthday on the same date 2 months ago.

GSC at Dataran Pahlawan Sucks!

Hubby wanted to watch HellBoy 2 even though the current ticket price is RM9 because it is a box office movie that is what the boy at the ticket counter told me. Ayoyo, Box office already, earn so much already, why need to charge extra RM2. This is called taking advantage hor? Yayaya, I am stingy; why pay more for just another movie and true enough, it is just another Sci-Fi movie with stupid looking aliens. If I were to watch HellBoy 2 at home, I would have gone to bed already. I do not know about the guys and I am no fan of Sci-Fi Star Trek kinda style. The story line is so predictable.

Ok, back to Dataran Pahlawan’s GSC. I was surprised that the price of the ticket there is RM1 extra than published on their website. Since I have plenty of time to waste before the movie starts and no one else in queue, I asked for the reason. Reason given, we are providing better facilities. I was so tempted to ask what the better facilities are. The space is huge and empty. I don’t see any benches around for us to sit while waiting for the movie to start and I don’t see any big screen TV for us to watch movie previews.

We are very disappointed that when we entered the cinema theater. Rubbish was not collected; empty cups, empty pop corn boxes and used tissues stuck at the drink holder. So geli…wonder whether got sperm on the tissue! :lol: We have to clean our own seat. Is this the extra RM1 for? To help ourselves with leftovers, mana tau got extra pop-corn, so no need to buy, can save RM1. :P

Other than that, all is the same to me as the Mahkota Parade’s GSC. Hubby said, this will be the first and the last we go there. I totally agree to that.

But then, this is business. Newly built, spent RM2 million already, the only way to get the return soonest possible is to squeeze the consumer lor.

Sleeping Time Haywire, Pimples Popping Out

I really got a lot of pimples on my chin. So I figured the breakouts must be due to my sleeping time. For 2 straight days, I slept for only 3.5 hours! On top of that I am stressed out too. Even my existing acne cream is not helping. I guess I have to really make time to sleep, de-stress and drink lots of water.

Buy Gold for Long Term Investment

Since my income has dropped tremendously, I stopped topping my Gold Savings account or even buy gold coins. Furthermore the price of gold has increased but income did not increase, reduced some more! :(

If you have the means, I would really suggest that you buy gold as investment. You see lar, the price will always increase one. Long run, you will surely gain. But then hor, you want quick profit; this is not the type of investment for you. You want quick, go buy share but the risk is very high too. Buy gold lar, no risk. Just be more patience. ;)
