Brother sister

Many people who doesn’t know us will think that I am the younger one while my brother is the elder one. While actually I am older than him. Not by one or two years but six years.

A few times when we went out to shopping mall with my parents, the insurance agent would rather approach him than me. Then he would tell them,”Sorry, I’m still underage. I don’t even have my own KTP (id card).”

I think I can only blame it to our body size and height.

Anyway, I’m so looking forward tonight as I’ll be going to the computers and gadgets expo at Sun Plaza. They have a great deal for Canon digicams.

Hair cut after 3 months

Reason #86 of why freelance rocks (for me):
I can go to my favorite saloon for haircut on the weekday. There goes the horror of waiting for hours on the weekend.

I made an appointment for hair cut yesterday morning. It’s been 3 months since I had my hair cut at the same saloon.

Normally I would opt for short Bob style but this time, I just said,”Cut it short,” and let the hairstylist did the rest. I’ve been a loyal customer since high school and I always trust his skill and eyes.

Anyway, I have a pretty short hair now, especially the back side. Looks fresh~! Definitely gonna save my time in blow-dry my hair.

What I bought from my first salary

The first thing that I bought when I received my first salary (mid year 2007) was…

A 1GB SanDisk flash drive for the boyfriend. I bought it at IDR.110.000 ($11) if I not mistaken. Now, with that kind of price, we can get a 2GB SanDisk already.

It looks the same like the above picture. I scared that he might lost the cap so I bought this capless type. But, not long ago he told me that he lost the Sandisk flash drive at a printing shop. -__-” I have expected that. Most of the people lost their flash drive at printing shop. Forget to bring back, and many more reason. That’s why, printing shop is also the place where you might get a free flash drive (if you are lucky).

You gotta be kiddin me

I woke up quite early this morning at 7am cause of the nightmare (chasing and hiding scene again). Sigh. I went downstairs and saw My Dad lighted up the candles at praying area there (a Buddhist, I am). I asked what event or occasion is today that he needed to light up candles. He told me that it was Thursday bla bla bla day.

The actual conversation is in Hokkien dialect

“What?!?!? Thursday? It is just Wednesday eh?” I asked in a surprise tone.

“Aiyo, see, you have spend too much time in front of computer that you forget to check the calendar. It’s Thursday already, my dear daughter.”

Wth. I thought it is Wednesday only. -__-” Time flies too fast~! Since it is Thursday means I need to accompany my Mum to go buy material handling for the plumbing use.

Dream of new carport

After 2 nights of having nightmare, finally I have some better dream last night. It was no longer about chasing and running away from some bad guy or trying to save my own life. It was about my house. In my dream, I saw that my parents asked a few workers to work on the new carports. It’s weird as we have just work on it few months ago to anticipate the flood.

What a maid can do

Having a maid that stay at home is helpful, especially if you are a super duper busy person with million dollar business to deal with. A maid can help you do the house chores, open your house gate for you when you come back home, etc. But besides helping you, having a maid can turn into a disaster too.

It was on yesterday when my neighbor told my parents that the maid, whom work and stay with their daughter, ran away with the daughter’s jewelries which worth around IDR.15million or $1,500! The maid is from outstation (either Java island or Sulawesi, I forgot) and they hired her from a maid’s agency. They have made a report to the police station and the polices have traced the maid’s location. I didn’t follow the rest of the story.

Once in a while, we will experience a ‘wave’ in our life. It could be big or small.

I can’t believe that the maid can be so daring by stealing and running away. Crazee…

I myself don’t have a maid that stay with us, but a maid that comes every morning to do the house chores (wash & iron clothes, sweep floor) and leaves after she finishes her work. So far there is no stealing case whatsoever and I hope she is clever enough not to do that stupid thing.

Shopping for Chinese New Year

I can’t believe we are on November and that Chinese New Year is less than 3 months away. That means, it’s time to go for shopping spree! Yea, I have started to shop for Chinese New Year clothes. Not gonna buy that much but a few pair of clothes and maybe new sandals or heels.

I know, I just bought two; one sandal and one high heel; from Vincci last two months. But girls never have enough of shoes, right? The other day while surfing online, I spotted one classic sandal from UGG Australia and it looks stunning. I might consider to buy it since they offer free shipping on all UGG orders over $59.98.

It’s Monday again

I’m in the mood to write in point form so there you go.

1. I have posted an update on participants entries from SimplyWP 3 months Blogoversary Contest. This is the 5th day of the contest and we have 22 participants in the list. I am glad that I made the decision to count and check the entries from now on. It is a tonnes of work and not as easy as I thought.

2. I received good news during the weekend. I won something from a few online contests that I joined! It was my lucky week eh? Perhaps this acne on my forehead does bring some luck. lol.

3. The internet connection seems to be pretty stable now. At least it doesn’t load so slow like the pass 1 week, although sometimes the webpage just went time-out suddenly.

I’m so lazy to write anything now. Let me end this post and get back to my design work.
