House vs Condo 2007-11-01 23:00:00 No, I am not so desperate... :-) Just across my mind this morning, when I open my gate I suddenly thought that may be I should move to a condominium to make my house chores less... Do you think I straightly look for condos for sale? Well I did!

I visited Sabine and Patricia today and they just start this National Blog Posting Month or NaBloPoMo. To join this, we only have to blog everyday this November, starting today. I think it's a good way to begin our November! Hey you guys, come on join me!Let's start now!Blog 01 on 30 days with 30 blogs is....Everydayhealy, a mom of 7 months daughter, baby Elizabeth. I impressed with her because she willing to read my long post about what I do all day! I see that she starts blogging from April, exactly the same with me and she got PR4, congrats!!

Shoes...shoes...shoes! 2007-11-01 03:21:00 Clay needs a new pair of shoes and he needs it ASAP! Boys' shoes change so often no matter how 'heavy duty' the shoes are... if it is not because they are 'hungry' like the picture on the left, they are become too tight as their feet are getting bigger so fast!Not only boys' but my husband also bought several shoes every year! LOL.. he loves shoes and boots, and his eyes just can't control his legs which always walk into a shoe store every time he sees SALE! Two weeks ago he called my handphone and told me he was buying a new pair of sport shoes for jogging. He already has various shoes actually, from Steel Toe Boots that really great as work boots, dress boots, basket ball shoes, jogging shoes, futsal shoes... Oh well...okay... LOL...I browse about shoes and find this shopping online store that offers so many great shoes and boots! They even offer free shipping if our order is more than $100! Oh my husband will like that Dr. Marten's and I choose Converse Crosstrainer is reall
What I do all day.. hhh... 2007-10-31 09:49:00 Feel need to share so many things but suddenly I feel really tired! Today we have quite a not so good day... still can thank God for His blessings though so this is not supposed to be a bad day at all in God.I know I've blogged this morning..and now is nite already. My hubby is out of town for working..This morning was just perfect as usual... I sent my Clay to school at 6.40 AM and be back home to blog for a while, looking for some opps. Around 8 AM I was shocked with my new helper, she only been working here for a week, she wants to leave! It's so shocking for us as we think we are doing fine. I have done my best to make her feel at home. I even took her around Bandung, showed her famous building in Bandung and yesterday we went to a mall. I just thought my helpers are human and they need entertainment as well..and this morning I found something so contradictory.. she wanted to leave, that's it. I told her to stay until I find another one to replace her position but she refused to
Survive in Marriage 2007-10-30 19:14:00 Heart breaking newsThis month I was surprised by really striking news that two couples of my friends can't survive in their marriage. I really feel sad for them, as the husbands are my close friends since we were high school. They really have nice personalities and it never occurred to me that they can break up their marriage because of another women! Just hearing the news did break my heart... it really hurts!I don't blame them, as unfaithful men, because I realize that relationship break up has a causal effect, action and reaction between husband and wife. There are many unfaithful men out there but I don't believe that these two friends are that kind of men! Hey, don't get me wrong, I also don't judge their wife not treat them well as their husbands... there must be so many complex reasons behind relationship break up, so complex and serious that they have to sacrifice their marriage future and their children!Ed Cole said that if you want to know about heaven, get married! As i
Memorable Moments... 2007-10-30 08:09:00 This Thursday my friend will deliver her first son by caesar and my mind flies back two years ago and even 7 years ago when I delivered Clay and Cliff.Both of my son born naturally, not by caesar. Though during unbearable pain I always cried to get a caesar instead, I managed to hang in there 14 hours and deliver my babies. Yes 14 hours of pains!Clay was 3.5 kg 52 cm and Clifford was 3.82 kg 54 cm when they were born. Such a big babies, indeed.In Chinese tradition we always gave 'ManYe' or gift to our friends and family who has visited our babies, 30 or 40 days after the babies were born. We usually send a cake with two red eggs on it as a symbol that our baby is a month old already. With these cakes and red eggs we usually attach photo birth announcements, with the babies name on it. This ManYe tradition just like our thanksgiving that the Lord has given us a healthy baby.For these memories, here's Clifford when he was born! It was me, in pain... and my smile right after Clifford w Read more:Moments

I am so wicked, right? hahaha.. eh Amel, in cold weather we tend to urinate more often, don't we? Ah, don't you think we need incontinence products like adult diapers when we go skiing? :-) I think it's a wise idea Amel.. don't laugh!I find Holiday Hypermarket, the site which provides millions package holidays including bargain ski holidays! I'm sure my kids love to try skiing, while I doubt myself can do that 'need balance sport' *big grin* Besides, Holiday Hypermarket is a great site to find cheap flights, last minutes deal and cruise bargain! I think I should try cruise... my auntie told me that taking cruise holiday is fabulous! We have gala dinner with so many attractions every night and go to sleep without realizing that we are moving to another country at all! In the morning we arrive to another new country and explore it, shopping and sig

Deal with teeth... 2007-11-03 23:12:00 It's hard to get Cliff's teeth
brushed! He hates brushing his teeth. I worried he will have bad teeth and he will suffered of toothache. I checked two of his wisdom teeth (molar teeth?) have tiny holes now! *sobs* We went to the dentist before but you might guess that he didn't open his mouth at all. It's been more than a month I've been letting those holes on his teeth without being taken care of! Oh dear... oh dear... All I want is healthy teeth and beautiful smile for my kids... as beautiful teeth as we can get if we visit charlotte cosmetic dentist!Ps. Clay wants to be an astronauts so he surely has to take an extra care for his teeth!

Beautiful bathroom 2007-11-03 19:01:00 I love large bathroom
. How about you? When I move to this house as a newly wed, we do some renovation to the house and bathroom is one of some rooms that was renovated. We made it a little bit bigger and decorated it with flowery tiles. Bathroom lights are also important to make it cozy and comfortable.What do you do to make your bathroom comfortable? I have a friend who put a clock on her bathroom's wall! *giggles* She said her hubby always stays really long time in the bathroom, reading some magazines or books, so the clock is kind of a bathroom warden for him!

Halloween Answer 2007-11-02 08:11:00 Jean tagged me a halloween meme and I am supposed to answer her question below:Okay, now here's my question:It's Halloween
night, and you are partying at your friend's campus which is just few blocks away from yours. Suddenly you felt a tornado starting up in your stomach and you need to use the bathroom urgently. You went to the bathroom inside his room but it's occupied. You tried the bathroom down the hallway, it's all occupied too.At this moment, you are really pissed, "What the h*ll are these peoples doing in the bathrooms?" You thought you wanted wait, but the tornado is starting to turn to F5. So, hurriedly, you burst through empty hallway, to the front door and to the street, heading back to your campus. You are running as fast as you could and you thought you might have won the 100m in 8 seconds with this speed.Then you noticed something that looks like a white cloth floating on the air beneath the huge tree at the roadside. No, wait, it's not just a white cloth. It's C
I feel winter... 2007-11-11 21:06:00 Amel's realm, I love your pictures at the cabins. Detective squirrel has also submitted his secret videotape to me... LOL... and today she posted pictures of snow at Finland! Waaa... the more I envy her the more pictures of snow she posts and this time with a snowman! Waaaa... Amel, that's the most slim and handsome snowman I've ever seen! hahahaha...What I love about her as well is her cake! I think I really should travel there and visit them and stay at their cabin as well.. hihihi... I want her apple cake, strawberry cake and her parents-in-law cinnamon's porridge.. *grin* I make my shirt wet because I drool too much! Amel I feel so ndeso you know.. looking at your pictures... (red: ndeso is people from a very small town)Though I never touch and see snow, I know the coolest thing about fireplace, a fire glass! This fire glass is to replace those old gas logs and enjoy the magnificent glow of beautiful fire glass. My favorite color is Azuria Reflective one. It is simply awesome! Read more:winter
I miss my friends 2007-11-11 18:40:00 What season is this at your place? I wonder why so many friends are traveling somewhere for vacation! Feel something is missing without their presence in my blog... and I miss their posts already. Mr. Fong from eatyourmaths and LadyJava are traveling now. I wish they are addicted enough just like me, so they keep on updating their trip from their handphone. LOL... Soon my blog buddy, Dawn from twocrazydogs.net also will travel to visit her family. They all will disappear from blogsphere for several weeks! Several weeks without them.. hhh... so quiet ya! Feel like wanting to go somewhere as well...Eh I find a great place named Branson. It is a wonderful place for vacation! Stacey and GIGI, Branson is in Missouri! Have you visited there? Share your story with us please?
... 2007-11-10 23:32:00 I want to thank you for all attention, supports, good will and love that you have given me on my last post. I am touched of how much you care about me until you think that I will quit blogging.This was the only one what I wrote about quit:I quit my naboplomo project about 30 days with 30 blogs as I can't see my friends and readers' pages and links are also stolen. If you checked your technorati you may see some links from that site as well... you can visit the site and see my reviews of your blogs are there too. This is my reason why I stop doing this. I am so sorry. I have tried to solve this for more than a week but still not succeeded so I better stop blogging your good blogs in my posts.Dear friends, I will not quit blogging. No, I will not. What I meant in my last post was that I will stop my nablopomo project of 30 days with 30 blogs. That's all. Why?Because (in my humble and simple mind) I sincerely don't want my reviews about other's good blog are included in that copycat
I Quit. 2007-11-09 21:05:00 It's so heartbreaking to see my contents were used carelessly by someone. The site is stealing all my blog content and put its niche words all over the posts without even paying attention to my sentences and words. My thoughts and posts are not appreciated at all, just like rubbish and junk!How did I find it? One day I checked my technorati link and find some weird links to my page. How surprised I was to see my contents and images were all over the site! How come can somebody so rude and heartless. I am not willing to see my children's pictures used inappropriately by unknown without my permission.By the way, after I blog about this problem yesterday the links from that site at my technorati is missing! I guess the thief has smelled this. I don't know it is a machine thief or heartless human.I quit my naboplomo project about 30 days with 30 blogs as I can't see my friends and readers' pages and links are also stolen. If you checked your technorati you may see some links from that
Finally find a way to have an online store. 2007-11-09 20:00:00 My friends have so many products and ask me to join them selling their products, from removable stickers, Balinese accessories products, Bali lulur products, environment-friendly detergents to sanitary pads! They think I have lots of friends and I can be a good saleswoman, in fact most of my friends are not real! They are on my computers... :-) I rarely meet friends in my real world and I am not a type of mom who likes chit chat with other moms at school. I just sit on my computer and get connected with my friends by emails, msn or ym and blogs. That's all.The first thing that came across in my mind is an online
store. This is the perfect way to sell those products to my online friends. Something that hinder me from building my own online store
is that I don't know how! After gathering some information about this, I find an ecommerce software from Ashop Commerce. Besides it is affordable, I am so happy to find that they offer a free trial for ten days including a free store design wi Read more:Finally
Please excuse me 2007-11-09 07:28:00 I am sorry but today I will not do my 30 days with 30 blogs commitment as I need to fix a serious problem. I do need advice, but I think I can't write what is my problem here... you can see the shoutbox then you will know..

Rain rain go away... 2007-11-09 03:26:00 Yesterday my Cliff's voice got hoarse. He was not flu or coughing at all, I don't know why his voice was hoarse. Poor Cliff. I guess it is because of the weather. Many people get sick because of the weather transition, between dry season to rainy season and vice versa.In my place, rainy season is coming and the air becomes humid. I think we need a dehumidifier to make our bedroom dry and healthy. Does anyone here use a dehumidifier? I need to know your opinion about this. I think we need a big dehumidifier enough for a bedroom, but I find a small dehumidifier is great!Health is important especially for children, they need some nutrition and energy to grow. If they often get sick I am afraid they couldn't grow well...
The Proudest Moment in My Life 2007-11-08 22:37:00 Everydayhealy tagged me to share the proudest moment in my life. I like this tag, thank you dear! Well I still can not decide what the proudest moment in my life is... I have 2 moments that make me so proud, may I share both of them? I just can't choose one of them!The proudest moment in my life is my wedding day! I am so proud to be chosen by God to accompany this most eligible man in town. We certainly find that God has made us one in our marriage, as a soul mate, to grow together in knowing Him, to support each other to fulfill His will, to love and take care of one another to enjoy His blessings.After 8 years of marriage now, we really can feel the heaven on earth. I just so proud, grateful and humbly take this beautiful blessings as a wonderful responsibility to maintain our commitment and keep on striving to seek His desire.Today, I give you my hand,with that my heart.Today, I surrender to you,please lead me to your soul.From this day forward,every ounce of your being is experie Read more:Moment

To All Teachers In This World... 2007-11-08 04:59:00 Yesterday I am talking about KUMON, how frustrated I am to motivate my son to learn math, well today I met his KUMON teacher and asked her to help me solving our problem. Actually I find a blog which is so mathematical! I am amazed of how some one can be so dedicated to math! Eat your maths is written by teacher Fong. On his sidebar Mr Fong describe himself as a dedicated, sports-loving Maths tutor that aspires to teach students how to confidently step up to kick the PSLE away into the soccer goal, and score! What a special vision he has for his blog!Being a teacher or a tutor is not easy, we really have to give ourselves for our students. Mr. Fong also has his own struggles and difficulties dealing with both students and parents, but I also read his satisfaction and joy as he found his students successful to reach their goal. He also blogs about his holidays... teachers are human being they need a break! :-)Among many personal blogs I find this math blog unique and definitely has an Read more:World
