i'm so hang fuk

Hubby went out for lunch yesterday to Secret Recipe. I asked him got ta pao anything for me? He said nope. #$#@!!! Nevermind, less fat intake. On the way to carpark, i saw him with SR plastic bag *grin grin* He didn't forget me and it was Choc Indulgence! Thanks :)


Reached our usual economy rice stall near our house. There was a new stall selling laksa. Instead of rice, asked hubby to get the laksa for me. My excuse was just wanna try. When we got home, our porch was covered with white dust, thanks to our neighbour who has just only decided to have his house renovated after 6 months. Hubby had to clean the porch while i cleaned the sink. Ants invaded our rubbish bin.

Soon after that we went for our routine jog. I regretted to sign up for Penang Bridge Marathon :( This time i completed 2 rounds. I bathed after hubby. Was going to ask him to heat up the laksa soup for me but i chged my mind. So after i bathed, my laksa was ready, hot & nice. Thanks to hubby again :D He always knows what to do at the right time :) Sometimes he really makes me feel so touched :P

i love paypal now

Paypal finally allows non-US paypal account holders to accept money without adding any US bank account number. This is a great news for me as i dun have to ask my fren for her US bank account number. To date my earnings have reached $185+. Even at this moment, i still have $80+ pending for payment in June. Isn't this just great? :) I'm waiting for my earnings to reach $200 before i encash it out with help from a friend. Hopefully my friend is patient enough to help me to encash my earnings for me.

Let's see i can earn up to RM1K before end of this year.

2 eggs a day, make me go mad in the morning

MIL brought 20 eggs for us on Sunday. 2 eggs each everyday. So far we have only managed to complete 8 eggs cos it quite rush for us in the morning. Especially with my new hairstyle. I need to put on conditioner so that my hair will not fly all over the place in office. Also i need a lot of time to decide what to wear every morning. Hubby never understand that since my clothes occupied 2 sections of the 8feet wardrobe :P What to do, girls are girls. 12 eggs more to go by the way.

jam again

There was a massive jam on bridge again today. We were stucked in the jam right after toll. Heard over the radio there was an accident & they were clearing up. So we ended up in office at almost 8am. Dunno hubby gets to park at his favourite spot or not. Damn the jam :P

MIA

I didn't update my blog for the whole of last week as i accidentally disabled my blog account. All i did was password cleanup for all my blogs. It took Google Support team one week to reset my blog password & account. *phew* At least they didn't delete my account like what my friend experienced. His Adsense account got disabled & deleted.

me with mushroom hair

I finally chop off my hair!! Quite satisfied with my hair this time. I went Hair Perfect at e-Gate. Honestly, i've not been to any branded hair saloon before. Saw the price, not too expensive too. Now, the back view of my hair is so like mushroom.

I had this hairstyle long ago, when i was still in primary school. Surprised this hairstyle is getting popular now and it's named "bob" hairstyle. MIL even said that i look 5 years younger..... Ahem...i'm 4yrs younger than hubby ler, she always mistaken that i'm same age as hubby.

paypal again

There are several options where you can accept & withdraw money from PayPal due to the tech glitch as claimed by paypal team.

1) Buy a VMI card (expensive)
Learn more from Hong Kiat's Blog. This an expensive option since you have to pay so much each time money is withdrawn from the ATM. Withdraw in bulk, if possible.

2) Buy an E*Trade card (expensive). Read more at Azrin's

3) Get someone with Singapore Paypal account (rational)
Changing your street address does not mean changing your country of residence. PayPal does not currently support addresses from multiple countries on the same PayPal account. But you can withdraw funds to the local Singapore bank from your Singapore PayPal account.

3) Send money to other people whom you trust and let them encash for you. Risky.

moody

i skipped lunch today. no mood to get anything to eat. it's all about the 5kg i've gained so easily but hard to shed off. hubby insisted i go job with him round our taman after work today. Jog is an easy task, but try leaving work at 6pm or so, stuck in the stupid penang bridge jam and start jogging at almost 7pm. Darn. I hate to go home so late, especially when i have no paid post to write :(

alt ways to accept money from paypal

Since May 11, there is a havoc going on with Paypal where Malaysian are not able to accept money. What to do, Malaysia is well know for its credit card fraud. Yeah, put the blame on that. Anyway, there are a few method to be able to accept & withdraw money from paypal for Msian. I'm going to write about it later. Either via VMI Card or E*Trade. Will get the link and post it up soon.

5kg

Yes, it's 5kg not 8mm. I'M FAT!!!! Before marriage, i kept my weight to 55kg with so much effort cos i'm a good eater. It was so hard to refrain from eating after each meal. Even before i met my husband, i was 64kg and since he is the skinny type, so no choice, had to reduce food intake to match him....hahaha....see what girls will do for the person they love :P

So it only took me a few months to gain extra 5 kg. I still remember the a day after my wedding, i took extra heavy lunch since i didn't get to eat much during my wedding dinner. Have to entertain so many friends & relatives then. After that, i opened up all the chocs hubby got for me when he was on biz trip. Chocs, gummy bears, sour worms.....etc. During CNY, MIL stocked up our fridge with carbonated drinks & packed drinks. 1 can after lunch, 1 can after dinner, 1 can when i'm feeling syiok. Syiok or not? Heaven for me. So now, i gain 5 kg fat all over me. No wonder my pants are tighter now :P Now wonder no more sleeveless shirt for me.

Hubby is complaining about my extra 5kg already. Once upon a time, he bought me a set of slimming lingerie & Osim U-zap. I once told him, his money will not go to waste....hehehe.

Can i go back in shape? :P

the decision is made

finally persuaded hubby to do something that will change our life now. No more freedom for him...hehehe.....


What are you all thinking about? I asked him to settle my house loan only with his loan (long story)...hehehe. I'll be free of debt now but of cos still have to chip in money since we combined loan. But if he is unfaithful to me or dun want me anymore, at least i have an apartment ready *muaaahahaahaha* Just joking, just joking :D

2-1-2 posts

There is an unwritten rule about blogging for money. You have to have at least 2 non-paid posts (with min 50words each) in between paid posts. 1-2-1-2 posts kind of things to avoid your post to be rejected by sponsors. Now i understand why PPP rejected one of my post. I'm going to repeat that mistake with Blogitive too now, i'm not good with fineprint. Going to lose another $10? :P

Learnt my lesson & i have a lot of work to do now, cleaning up other blogs.

Spiderman extra power

Did you notice something wrong with Spiderman towards the end? He knows how to do magic. Magic as in he knows how to mend his spiderman suit :D

If you dun believe me, take good look towards the end of the show when he battled with the black monster, Venom. Venom is not bad looking too. If you see carefully, you will notice that the holes on his suit, can switch place. First it will appear on the left, then it will suddenly appear on the right. Extra power?

Harry Osborne is much good looking and sexier than Peter. Like the wicked wink he gave Peter *melting* I always like guys without double eye-lids :D And I tak boleh tahan see Peter Parker danced. Like those sex maniac. Mary Jane looks old & haggard too.

Dun understand why i always like the bad guys. Also prefer Phantom to Christine's bf in Phantom of the Opera. However, Johnny Depp & Ryan Phillipe are still my favourite :D

strange?

Hubby & i realised something. His parents have never raised the question on when are we having a child. Not even my parents. That's something strange, don't you think so. Even my sis's MIL is "concern" about us :P

reply from PayPal

I received replied from PayPal finally but it didn't answer my question:

we're okay again

Hehehe...hubby drove all the way to Queensbay Mall just to get 2 tickets for Spiderman yesterday during lunch. Well, we had cold war since Monday and i called him my roommate since then :P So he decided to date me to dinner & movie just like good old days. The last movie we went to was Happyness by Will Smith & his son. Truly touching movie. Spiderman is not bad too. Will write about it when i'm more free.

paypal - cannot accept money =(

I'm still searching for a way to accept sent by sponsors in PayPal. Was able to do that until recently when they implemented the condition where you need to enter US Bank Account before accepting the money sent to your account. Iskh!! I'm a Malaysian without US Bank Account. So i wrote a letter to PayPal support team and they replied assuring me that there is a glitch during their system upgrading last week. Aiyer.....why like that? So this issue will be fixed.

I need to find someone with US Bank and Spore Bank Account. In case the problem is not solved, i'll need to trust my frens who have these banks......

i love PPP

I've accepted into PPP beginning of this week & i've written 3 reviews so far earning more than USD10 already. Cannot deny that PPP is very strict on the reviews posted by bloggers. However bloggers will be paid handsomely once the reviews are approved. Win-win.

Of cos i dun keep good news to myself, i share it with my blogger friends too. I'm not sure how many friends have i referred to, but readers of this blog, you may click here if you're interested in writting reviews & get paid for the reviews :)

All bloggers need to do is write blog reviews on the opportunities taken at PPP.

updated Sponsors List

I've updated my Sponsors List.

Up to date, i have $76 in my paypal and I'm expecting $50-60+ coming by the end of this month. Since last month, i've been telling my friends that i would be reach $100 by this month. I bet i'm getting near since all i need to do now is to wait for the sponsors to approve and bank in money to my paypal. Well, this is nothing to be proud of actually since most of the bloggers are already earning thousands. But an amateur like me, it's a good start. Slow and steady :P

To all my friends, keep blogging and wait patiently for your blogs to be approved =)

p.s. ReviewMe only allows 10 reviews per month...darn..

:(

This month is pure bad luck for me. My posts have been declined. It wasn't fair. For RM, i got an email asking me to re-do my post on 14 May, but the deadline was 12 May. Delay in my email notification and i had to say bye bye to my USD5. Smorty declined one of my posts without giving me a chance to re-post so USD6 flew away. All in one day. The amount is not that much but still...i already have a few bad encounters since last week and now i lost USD11. Arghh!!!!!

frustration!!

Help me to understand something. Hubby is upset becos he couldn't get his dream superbike. Why? Becos the money he wanted to use to get his superbike will have to be used to cover part of my home loan. Long story but the point is he is down now. Partly due to his workload too. And i am his victim! Why want to let go at me when he cannot get the stupid bike? If it's about work, leave it in the office before you get into the car. Why i have to be his victim? When he is upset with something or angry with me, he treats me like a glass. I hate it when he does that. First mum, now him?? I better go to Lillian Too's website to see if there is anything for me to defend myself against all the bad chi for this month. Bad bad month for me. Quarrelsome month.

replacement for hayfever original medicine

It's always expensive when it comes to medicine therefore we have this phrase "take an apple a day, keep the doctor away". Although medicines are usually very expensive, there is always a cheaper choice but with same result. Let's take Generic Flonaseas an example. Generic Flonase is a duplicate of original hayfever medicine but it comes in a much cheaper price. It is as effective as hayfever medicine to cure symptoms of hayfever such as nasal congestion, irritation and etc. Moreover, it could be used to treat allergies triggered by dust mites or fur as well. Easy to use & only need to use once a day for daily treatment. However Generic Flonaseis not suitable for kids below 12years old.

However, please read the leaflet before taking. Avoid taking Generic Flonaseif you’re asthmatic or just had nose surgery. If you're not sure of the dosage & who should take it, there is always an expert personnel to advice you via info@strandarcadepharmacy.co.nz. Dunno where to get Generic Flonase when you need one? Go to Strand Arcade Pharmacy & start ordering today. They provide free shipping nationwide.

Ultimate Paintball Gun store

Do you like Paintball? I personally have not played this game before i just heard about it a few times. My uncle who owns Paintball game shop told me that maintaining the equipments are expensive. Do you know that a paint gun costs up to USD 469.95? That’s insanely expensive. Of cos you have cheaper one like Spyder PILOT ACS Black/Blue Paintball Marker MEGA Gun Set.

I’ve informed uncle about Ultimate Paintball Gun store and that it's selling cheap paintball guns but he refused to listen. He gave me reasons that he would be charged unnecessarily and there is possibility that the stocks ordered will only arrive after several weeks. This is not true if you order certain equipment from Ultimate Paintball Gun store. Free UPS Shipping is provided if the orders are more than USD200. He sort of attracted to the free UPS and promise to take a look at cheap paintball guns offers from Ultimate Paintball Gun store. Hmm…will I get free games when I visit his shop next time? =)

taking a break.... :(

My sis & i just had heated argument with mum over the phone. Actually it's more like one way communication, mum was screaming on the phone on the other end. Both of us tried to calm her down by putting facts into her brain but she refused all the facts & shot us with hurtful words. We tried to explain and clear the air for her, instead she created a tornado & destroy everything on its way.

I have no mood to blog now. Now becos i'm angry with her. I just feel helpless cos she is losing control & her cool. All cos she has to take care of my paternal grandpa. And she is a perfectionist. Use your imagination, how a perfectionist takes care of a dirty & noisy old man.

I think i'll go hiatus, forget about blogging......

I'm finally being accepted into PayPerPos (PPP). Oh dear oh dear, i'm so excited now. How do i find time to write reviews? I have 6 opportunities waiting for me to accept in PPP, 2 from ReviewMe, 2 from Bloggerwave & 2 from SponsoredReviews. Some deadlines are by end of this week!!

We dun have broadband at home and I'm considering of having one, but not until i'm earning USD100 per month consistently. Will i reach my own target? I'm not a fulltime blogger yet and i dun wish to be one. Blogging will continue to be a way to pass time while waiting for hubby to finish his work =)

rude rude panel clinic.

greedy me

I'm done for today. Just finished up 5 reviews from 2 blogs. Have another 5 reviews to go for 2 other blogs. Can i call it a day? Tired of typing while working at the same time :P

I think i went nut. I bidded for 12 review from Sponsored Reviews and it seems i need to complete all of them once approved, otherwise say bye bye to my blogs. Hey, i didn't read fine print!! So far only 1 review has been approved on SR, still safe. I want all my bids to be approved and yet please dun approve them all at the same time :P

With RM & SR, i think i'm tied up already yet i'm waiting for PPP to approve my blogs. Those who could write 30 reviews per day, i salute them.

get paid by Smorty

I just love the idea to get paid per post. i'm more delighted when i found out yet another get paid to blog sponsor: Smorty. You'll have to fulfill all the basic requirements just like other sponsors where your blogs must be more than 3 months..bla bla bla.

One of the features that attract me, bloggers get paid on weekly basis. This means i can see the money in my Paypal once my post is approved. I’ve just received USD60 for blogging, this is a good start for me. I wish I could get my first USD1K by end of this month, by blog for money. So much better than my monthly income from my current job.

For bloggers, you just write your most honest opinion once opportunity is sent to your emails & you'll get paid by Smorty. For advertisers to advertise on blogs, your money will be spent more effectively, as there will not be any low quality bloggers. Don't you just love Smorty? =) Check it out Smorty get paid to blog & blog advertising services.

want or need?

I'm feeling uncomfortable since last night. Hubby and i went for lunch at Tao, Juru Autocity. The environment was excellent but most of the staff are Indians, i wonder why. Anyway, we were served by a nice indian guy. Opted for RM44++ buffet. Ordered a few plates of dishes & took some sushi. I made mistake by finished up 3 shushi and a glass of ice lemon tea before the dishes came. We only managed to order 3 rounds and that was it. The food was so-so, nothing to shout about. Not much variety & no oysters. Sobayoshi is still better than Tao. I think i'm down with food poisoning now, upset stomach :(

After lunch, we went round Autocity & dropped by at a superbike shop. Hubby is crazy about superbikes, as well as FIL. I hardly remember all the names he mentioned to me except Africa Twin, Hornet, KTM. He likes big & high superbikes while FIL loves superbike with lower seat. Oh yeah, the Africa Twin that hubby & FIL planned to buy already sold out. They went to see the bike on Sunday 2pm & it was sold out to another person by 3pm. Limited edition, that's why. Hubby was disappointed by not me. It's a WANT, not a NEED.

my first income - USD60


I'm so thrilled today, at last there are some money in my PayPal account after spending one month blogging actively =) Thanks to Bloggerwave as a start.
Another good news, i'm finally being accepted into ReviewMe. Now i'm aiming to get approved by PayPerPost. Wish me luck.

Ashop Commerce - shopping cart software

Ashop Commerce shopping cart software is simply easy & affordable and it caters from small to big businesses. Once signed up, you'll receive set up information instantly via email & only need to spend about an hour to add products to the system. Not additional tools are needed, other than internet connection. It has everything under one roof, from web promotion to design services to ecommerce tip & tools.


I recommended this Ashop Commerce shopping cart software to my neighbour who owns a tooling shop and he was estatic. After calculating the cost & profit, no doubt the turnover would be fast. One of the testimonials of Ashop Commerce shopping cart posted online "Within 3 days, we'd had enough orders to pay for the first months costs - all the rest was going to be profit !" Why not? Customers can order products online conveniently. If this goes well, i think he'll no longer need to hire so many workers. Having Ashop Commerce shopping cart , it's like opening his shop 24-7 everyday! On top of everything, his could now reduce his bad debts, for all transaction online is either by cash or credit card, up to his own definition. Not only that, his shop is always up to date with new search engine algorithms. Who says a simple shop in a small city cannot compete with big shops in other cities.
