Mum's 80th birthday

Image
My eldest brother wished to organised a birthday celebration for our mum. He planned everything in detailed. He chose the Imperial Restaurant in Subang and ordered a special cake for the celebration.   It's a beautiful cake for the special occasion. He even bought special red packets meant to be given together with the door gift.  A piece of RM5 note is put inside each packet. The door gift consists of a fork,a spoon and a pair of chopsticks which is considered auspicious. Mum wore her new blouse specially tailored for her big day. Only closed relatives were invited. A total of 63 guests attended the event. Mum's birthday fell on the tenth day of the tenth month of the Chinese calendar which coincidentally fell on a Saturday. My eldest sister flew from JB. My third sister took a bus from Singapore. My youngest sister flew from Penang. My second brother and his family flew from Penang too. My eldest, third and youngest brothers are fro...

Deepavali dinner

Image
As many of my customer friends are Indians, I decided to give them a treat. It was held at the Chinese restaurant in the YMCA building. I booked two tables for the 19 of us. Before we started the dinner, I had to give the prize to the winner of the Saree challenge at Chang Jiang.  She was clad in saree but I was clad in an innovated one. From 7pm onwards, one by one started to take their seat at the restaurant. Then came the pre-ordered dishes. We had rice and there was a bowl of soup too. Most of them had Chinese tea but some of us had red wine which I brought along. Simple yet appetizing ones. And it's reasonable too. After the dinner, we gathered at the living hall for a photography session. We took quite a number of shots. A group photo for the album. They thanked me for the treat but I thanked them for their presence! Happy Deepavali!

Wearing Saree

Image
I had organised a saree contest at Chang Jiang but not many people seemed keen. Once a Chinese friend told me that she wanted to take part and I was looking forward to it.  She was waiting for a green light from our Indian friend. Unfortunately, our friend was too busy preparing for her son's wedding. Her time was really occupied.  I have an Indian friend who seemed interested to wear saree with me. Again, we couldn't get a proper time to do it. Both of us had time constraint. Thus, we forwent it. Two days ago, a regular customer came to Chang Jiang with her saree. She looked so pretty. This was the first time I had seen her in saree. Casually, I asked if I could wear her saree. Without hesitation, she welcomed me to go over to her place that very night after my work. I was so pleased and I told her about the saree contest in Chang Jiang. She was excited.  So, I went to her place and wore her saree. I had submitted this picture at Chang Jiang. ...

Nefful

Have you heard of Nefful? I just heard of it recently. A customer who used to be sickly seemed healthy. So I asked about his condition. He then told me about the product Nefful. He was very efficient. In just two days, he brought his upline to talk to me. I was more convinced thus I signed up as a member. Nefful offers a wide range of clothings which is made of Teviron negative ion fabric.  Firstly, I bought a pair of boxer and a pair of wrist band for my boss. He wears them to sleep. By wearing the boxer, it helps to cleanse his system out of toxins. He is one who likes to pop medication into his mouth. The wrist band helps to stabilize his heart as he is a very stressful person. After a week of wearing, I washed them with the Nefful detergent. I was surprised to see that the water turned murky. See how much toxins he had in his system! I always wash my hair after work that is late at night. So I got myself a beanie. I hope that by wearing it to sleep, those m...

New gadget

Image
Finally I have got two new gadgets for my phone. The i-space adapter cable.  I had actually misplaced my set so I couldn't transfer my pictures into my laptop. So you can imagine I have lots of photos in my gallery. I had even deleted most of them after I had posted them. But I like to keep them as backup. Recently I used Dropbox but its space is so limited. I tried Cloud Album and yet to know if it's limited too. Yesterday night, I went into oppo shop and enquired about any adapter cable which might be suitable. So I found one. It cost RM35. Most importantly it worked.. Next, I have got a new cover for my phone. Originally, it was white and it got dirty. I had been trying to get the original one. Luckily I found it. I would love other color but they only had this color and the same white ones. I was surprised that I could trade in my old one for 20% discount. Great! Instead of RM89.90, I just paid RM72. My phone looks new all over again!

Dropbox

Have you heard of Dropbox? Personally I have heard of it before. I had asked my boy where he kept his photos and he told me it's the Dropbox. But at that time, I was not keen as I have my external hard disk. I store my photos there. But since I have my oppo phone  last Christmas, I don't save my photos anywhere. I just post them in my facebook. I can retrieve them anytime I want.  But two weeks ago, the boss's Samsung galaxy camera memory was full. He has lots of photos and he likes to view them from the camera itself. I was browsing his camera and I saw the Dropbox. So I quickly signed up and got all his 500 plus photos downloaded into Dropbox.  I deleted all his photos from the Gallery. He has lots of space for photo capturing now. And he can view all his photos from the Dropbox. He's so happy... Since it was successful case, I decided to download Dropbox into my phone. But imagine I have about 5k pictures. Photos was downloading into Dropbox and it g...

Ninth Emperor God Festival

Image
The Ninth Emperor God Festival starts on the 13 Oct till 21 Oct. My mum made a date with the temple as she would stay there throughout the 9 days. On the 14 Oct which was the second day, I sent my mum to the temple.  Here's the entrance to the dormitory. My first time sending my mum. Surprised to see the place which was clean and orderly. My two friends from Ipoh followed me to Taiping for a day trip. After putting my mum there, we went to get our lunch at the casual market. After our lunch, we went shopping at the Store nearby. As it was raining, we just took a drive along the Lake Garden. Since the rain wouldn't stop, we had our tea break at Taiping Mall. I had to be back to the shop before 6pm. So we left after visiting a friend and my aunt.
