While the PayPal was loading the last request to deduct US$150 from my account, I chicken out and clicked X. I wonder how many ppl out there was so addicted by Mafia War that they actually spent money to buy…. NOT real money *slap self*
*If you are not a hardcore gamer especially Mafia War, you will not understand this feeling. Having extra gold coins meant a lot to us as we can used it to buy more powerful weapons, upgrade energy, etc*
For someone who has turned over a new leaf after a series case of black listed under Bank Negara or any banks for offenses like unable to settle bank loans, credit card or bankruptcy, your name will be stuck in the black list like forever if you don’t do something about it. Meaning, you can’t get a new bank loan or apply for credit cards with any other banks.
There are few ways you can go about to clear your name. One of them involved getting help from credit repair service with some fees implied. Another way that was proven effective (or has already proven effective in my case) was be good, behave yourself, pay all your dues on time, start building up savings in your bank account again. Once the bank took notice of you, eventually they will come to you automatically offering their services (credit card).
The other day my Sister gave me a big plastic bag of her home grown organic Roselle. The buds is so pretty! So ang-ang (red)! The best way to bring out the shot is by having a white background. This is how i do it.
Lay a piece of white paper as the background. Use a white ceramic bowl. Switch on your flash and viola! You get white background and a shadow. Unlikecropping of the background which will make your subject look so fake.
Now that I’ve got the shot taken, it’s time for cooking. The taste of Roselle drink is very close to Ribena minus the colouring and artificial flavouring.
Peel the petals. Discard the seed. Boiled the petals in water for 30 minutes and sweetened the drink with rock sugar.
This Daddy hor, he is very weird wan. I asked him to get me a packet of rock sugar. He always come back with 2 packets of sugar anything! Now that remaining one packet of rock sugar is taking up space in my fridge. *blueh!*
Chilled Roselle in the fridge. Do not discard the buds as they are consumable. Another flash photography on the drinks.
My maternal Grandma has just celebrated her 94th Birthday. The picture of the four of us turned out so perfectly taken with all of us smiling at the camera. Totally love it!
I just did a quick arithmetic here. My eldest Niece is now 17 years old. If she gets married and have children say in 5 years time and if only my Grandma can live till the age of 100 years old, it is a miracle for me to record a ‘Five Generations’ journal. Long live my Dear Grandma!
You know, I am so wanna bad mouth this Malaysia Airline (MAS)!!! Is there any reason why they can simply cancel their schedule flight 7 days before departure and never thought of the inconvenience that we (THEIR CUSTOMERS) is going to face? So irresponsible! Because of them, I have to fork out extra $$$ to fly with SIA and they really screwed up my timing and wasting my time with all the stewpig transit in Singapore. So kanasai lidat!
Ok, done ranting now.
This time I won’t be gone for long. Just 6 days compare to previously when I was away for 15 days! My Mom have been staying with us for a week now. I do felt very relax when she is around especially when come to the cooking part. All finger is cross that the kids will obey their Grandma and their Guardian. But I need not worry too much about that cos my Mom is more fierce than me. Muahahahaha.
On the kids part, the two girls is quite ok about my absence even though Baby Princess sometimes will ‘teh’ (manja) a bit. But the 7 y/o Prince? Fuyoh! Every day he will purr like a cat. You know how the car purr right? Body away from you but the head resting on your arm/shoulder, rubbing and I can’t even hear what he was talking! That is my definition of purring. hahaha! I really don’t know how to leave the house tonight 
.
On work wise, no eye see. Must remember to lock all my stationaries. Those bugger love to steal my stuff especially my pen & pencil. The only thing they won’t take is my ruler and box cutter. Quite an idiot right?
I will have one schedule post on Monday on my bento and will try to sneak in some update if time permit. Till then, take care, have fun, say hi to your Mom for me. XOXO
The Photobook voucher I bought last year is nearing it’s expiry date and I have started compiling pictures and scarp elements before CNY so that I do not have to rush on the LO (layout). During the long CNY break, I managed to do 6 LO only. And right after the long break, I was burning the midnight old to complete 2 books with a total of 104 LO. I’m walking like a zombie now O.O I was so relieved when I finally submitted my 2 books to Photobook which means back to my usual blogging and hijacking!
While going thru tons and tons of my photographs, I realised I have never send any of them for printing since I own a digital camera in year 2003.

Was driving one day and out of the blue Dotter pop up this question:
Dotter: Mummy, you got RM300 or not?
Mummy: *shock* What is the money for!
Dotter: Di-Di (Brother) didn’t put on seat belt.
Mummy: *wakakakaka*
I was thinking the other day. Usually on our long rides back to kampung, the 9y/o will be sprawling (not strap up) at the rear seat sleeping, and the 7y/o will be sleeping in his car seat. That left with no more space for the 4y/o and she will usually strap up with Mummy in the front seat, sleeping. Yes, must travel during their nap time so that they won’t turn the car upside down. With the new enforcement to buckle up rear seat passenger, I make a little adjustment here. And of course spent a little $$$ so that everyone will travel in comfort.
Since the 3 kids need to be strapped up at the rear seat and I have to think of a way so that they can sleep more comfortably, I get a new booster seat for the 7 y/o and now his 4y/o Sister can have her car seat back. Bought the booster seat at S$26 only and if according to my conversion rate optimization they are only RM62.40. Cheap eh? How about the Big Sista? Initially I planned to get everyone a neck support pillow but too bad, they left only one pillow on the shelf. And my initial, initial plan was to get a inflatable pillow for easy storage. This is the result from last minute shopping so I just grab whatever that is on the shelf and they cost so much for a foam pillow! If the Big Sista is using them, this left the 7 y/o without any neck support. Let’s see which Sista is generous enough to lend their shoulder to lean on. You know how some siblings never allow their sibling to touch them further more, have to endure those saliva dripping. *yikes!*
Yes, you hear me right. From 1st January 2009 till 31st December 2010, PLUS Highway is giving 10% on normal days and 20% discount during festive season for vehicles that cross the ‘finishing line’ between 12am till 7am. The PLUS initiative is in line with the Government’s call to give added value to highway users especially during this current economic situation.
This incentive package does benefit us since we are planning to start our journey back to Daddy’s hometown on Friday night. Let’s see, it takes us 3 hours to get to the toll which means we can dilly dally our time packing, dinner, pangsai, pangjioh and estimated time to leave home is about 9pm. Not bad yea. From our entry point to exit point usually it cost us RM36.80. With the discount, it save us… let’s see… RM36.80 x 20% = RM7.36. Did I see that right? RM7.36!!! Wtf, not enough to buy myself a McDonald Prosperity Burger leh!!! zzzzzzzzzzzz
If you intend to take a late night drive, make sure your eyes is as bright as the owl. For back seat passenger, how’s life being strap up in seat belt? kekekeke…
This time, the kiamsiapness (stinginess) in me decided not to upgrade anymore. Previously when I exceeded my 25GB monthly bandwidth, I did a temporary 3 months upgrade at US$11.85 instead of a full year of US$39.95. See, now you know I am so kiamsiap can die! I know, Photobucket is more expensive than Flickr that is why their CEO has plenty of property in Outer Banks rentals. My account will be reactivated on the 16th of the month when my bandwidth usage resets to zero. At the meantime, I am using my other backup account as I do not want to overload the server. Do check back again after the 16th of the month for images on my old posting. Adios!
Oooo…. I better write this down before I forgot about the incident.
Scenario 1
During our last trip to Singapore around Christmas, somewhere along some secluded and shady stretch after paying at Tuas toll, we was stopped by Police for speeding. All along, we don’t intend to bribe them. As expected la, the offer will come. Before I continue, for those who is not familiar with procedure when you are stopped for speeding, the Traffic Police will ask for your driver’s ID then proceed to write you the summon and NEXT, get your signature on the summon too. So this is what happen to us. Conversation has been translated for those who don’t understand Bahasa Malaysia:
Police: Sir, you have exceeded the speed limit. Show me your ID.
*Hubby hand over ID*
Police: So, you want to settle here or summon?
*wah, so direct tim*
Hubby: Summon
Police: Settle?
*I can heard so clearly my Hubby said SUMMON! wtf*
Hubby: Summon!
*Police is bit shock*
Police: Oh, orang Pontian ah? *pretending fiddling with Hubby’s ID* OK, nanti kami pos saman ke rumah di Pontian.
*Give back ID*
Then what, drive off la. Those are bogus police la. They want us to bribe them only! Luckly we never intend to bribe them. Of course we had a good laugh at them. They make themselves looks like a fool.
Scenario 2
Sometime after Christmas my Youngest Sister after hearing my story said she had the similar incident happened to her.
Her group of friends was out partying and some of them got drunk except her. They was stopped by the Police and was asked to go to the Police station to get a breath test done. They said ok. But the Police let me off the hook.
WTF!
PLEASE DON’T BRIBE OUR POLICEMAN, OK? If you know you are wrong, act like a man. Pay the fine. If not, please drive at the speed limit of 110km/h.
