Mother’s Day is fast approaching so I would not be surprised to see malls and shops to be selling gift items for moms in the next few days. Although it would be great to receive a gift from the family, I was also thinking of giving something for the kids. Both Schenker and Samantha love to play computer games, so I am sure they would be thrilled to get one of those new psp games.

That’s just a thought, though. I have to look into my budget first. If I could not give it this soon, there’s always Christmas, or it could wait ‘til their next birthdays!

Schenker goes for his piano lessons once a week. He started last year. This is his second year already. His pace is quite slow as he doesn’t practise at home a lot. But he likes his piano lessons. He’s also asking if he could go for drums lessons and guitar lessons. He’ll probably need Snark Tuners if ever he goes for guitars. I really don’t mind him learning everything at the same time. It’s just that he won’t have enough time to dome other stuffs, especially the more important ones like studying and learning football.

What comes to your mind when you hear the word “summer”?

I always associate it with beaches, a long break from work and late mornings—not to mention that I could spend quality time with the family. It could also mean having to shop for summer clothes, which I really love. Seeing those summer sale signs hung in malls really gets me excited!

I wonder how we would spend this summer? Since I started working, I have been constantly dreaming of traveling somewhere again so let’s just see. Aside from getting summer clothes, I think prescription sunglasses from GreatEyeglasses.com is worth-checking out as I also want to get myself a pair of sunglasses for a perfect summer look!

I’m not sure if it’s just me, but I just think that chefs hat is simply sexy, especially when men wear it on. It’s funny the world’s greatest chefs are usually men. Doctors have their uniforms too, but I still think chefs look a lot more sexy than doctors.

I wonder if they do have a variety of choices to choose from or if they are limited to a few varieties. I wonder too if chefs hat can be fashionable too. I can’t imagine them having variety of colours and designs , but I do think it is about time that chefs need to look good.

Don’t you think so too ?

I have been having eye problems these days. So I decided to go for a quick eye check up. I saw one in Subang Parade that offered a free eye check up. They had this machine they used to check your eyes digitally.

I was surprised to know my eye grade hasn’t changed. I didn’t have eye problems at all. But I asked the guy who examined my eyes… Why when I see things at a certain distance, they’re all blurry.

A realization came when he asked me how old I was. Yes.. I didn’t even have to answer him. I got the point! And so he recommended I start using reading glasses for my reading time.

Gah! I just can’t believe age is catching up on me.

Valentine’s Day has come and gone. Days before the day of hearts, couples were looking forward to dates, surprises, roses and chocolates. It was fun reading posts of my online friends getting thesurprises they have always wanted while others were a bit frustrated that their hubbies were too busy to take them on dates.

Oh, well. That’s just Valentine’s. Going on dates and receiving roses coupled with sweet words and chocolates can always happen on an ordinary day, right? I will have to write a separate post about my Valentine date. I did not get hubby a gift like one of those cufflinks for men and I did not get some fancy gifts either, but having each other is more than a gift I am so thankful about!

Getting a job these days could be challenging. Aside from a degree, most companies prefer those with Masters. Since competitions are quite stiff, employers look into good grades, psychological exam results and recommendation letters from former employees. Many would even require a pre employment background check.

Recommendations from our former employees are definitely plus factors in getting new jobs. It is also important that we come out of out jobs free from debts or any obligations. With the advancement of technology these days, it would not be hard to find out where we were formally connected with, so it always pays to have good records—don’t you agree?

I just got a new pair of black wedges from U.R.S Inc. I am loving it. It is so soft and light. It has always been an off-white ones for me so I thought of getting a black pair.

One thing I like about using wedges for my shoes is because they don’t make that click-clack noises when you walk on the tiled floor. Our school floor is tiled so on my first day of school, when I used my high heeled stilettos, I was very embarrassed because the whole of the school could me walking. LOL. Frome then on, I decided to use my high-heeled wedges.

I am glad to be able to buy my new pair of shoes from a shop that uses POS system. At least now, I have a new alternative shoes to wear.
