Gift Ideas

December 15th, 2011

Do you have any spare, but quirky and exciting, gift ideas? Sometimes when we have so many friends or family members, we run out of ideas. We do not want to give general gifts, we want to make it special and buy or make gifts that are specifically for them.

The “best dad” coffee mug for daddy is now a bit tiring and so are the scarves for mommy. Why not try giving Circuit City coupons to your brother who loves gadgets, so that not only does he get something but also he is getting something he wants form his favorite store!

Christmas Shopping

December 2nd, 2011

I am happy that Schenker is interested in writing and loves to read a lot. There are so many times that I could honestly say my boy does act like he’s older than his age. Well, there are many advantages about that and I like how he responds to things maturely.

He is not very keen in playing online computer games, so I am not sure if giving him one of those gaming computers for Christmas would be a good idea.

Speaking of Christmas gifts, I still have not shopped for them yet. I don’t know if buying online would be better or if I would join the Christmas rush in the nearest mall—which one do you suggest?

Gift for Mom

November 19th, 2011

Even though Mother’s day is still months away, I have already thought of giving my mom a set of nice jewelry. I have already seen one for mother jewelry for her is very special and sentimental. I know that she keeps them well and only use them during special occasions. For her, they are very precious especially when it’s from her children. Even though we bestow her with things and stuff and I know that she appreciates our gestures, she still wants us to save for our future.

She still wants us to buy the necessary things and our wants must wait. Mom deserves all that we can offer and give her back, and so next Mother’s day, I will make her smile again.

One for the Hubs

October 31st, 2011

Because hubby travels often, he brings along with him important documents and papers and he prefers to put them in a bag that can secure them. I am thinking of giving him an aluminum briefcase because it is actually lighter than those leather ones. Although it looks like those from sci-fi and James Bond movies, it is actually stylish, lightweight and trendy.

I have been searching online for the perfect briefcase for him. I am pretty sure that with an aluminum briefcase, all his important papers and documents are safe. I just hope that he’ll like the idea of bringing a different kind of briefcase.

My Husband’s Red Shirt

October 30th, 2011

My husband has been flying to Phuket, Thailand for work. He goes there at least once in two months. At his recent trip, at the immigration counter, the officer asked him if he only had one shirt. He said no, his other shirts were on his checked-in bag. Funny thing started. The officer asked him to go to his side, and showed my husband his immigration photos… and at least 15 of them, he’s wearing the same red shirt! LOL. When my husband told me the story, I laughed so hard there were tears coming out from my eyes and my stomach ached. LOL.

Anyways, I went to buy him a couple of new shirts, from Arnold Palmer’s. I love their cotton shirts there. Thinking whether I n eed to buy novelty t-shirts for him. Maybe I should, yeah? The more the variety he got, the more it won’t be noticeable. :D

Snow

October 30th, 2011

Do you like snow?

When I was young, I used to dream so much of experiencing at least one season when there’s snow. When I went to the US a couple of years ago, it was winter. So I was really wishing for a snow. But it was fiercely cold and I couldn’t even open my mouth because when the cold air seethed through my teeth, it would hurt.

On the way back to Malaysia, we had a 10-hour transit in South Korea. We decided to go out for a transit tour and lo and behold, it was snowing in South Korea. It was a real treat that really completed my 3 week US trip.

But do I really like snow? I guess I like to see it from a distance. And my teeth hurt everytime I remember my snow experience. LOL. Not to mention that those who drive in the area where there’s snow, must have rud tire chains to keep the tires from sliding off the ice.

Of course, although my teeth/gums hurt everytime I remember snow, I don’t mind having snow experience again and again.

A Weird Blog Contest

October 14th, 2011

I remember visiting a blog that had an ongoing contest. I somehow find the contest weird since it involves messy cables. The mechanics, as far as I recall, was to submit a photo of your messy cables at home, be it in your workstation or your entertainment space, as long as the cables are all messed up and tangled. The photo that has the messiest cables will win cash from the blog owner.

It was really bizarre for me since I myself does not want my cables to be all snarled and in a big jumble, even my rca video cables I make sure that they’re placed in a secure and safe space so as to prevent from any fire or sparks. I guess that contest can be an eye opener as well, knowing that disheveled cables can be a fire hazard. I wonder if there were entrants to that contest.

Florida as a Top Tourist Destination

October 14th, 2011

Florida has been known for its crocodile-infested marshes and bikini-clad beaches and resorts. It’s also one of the top tourist destinations in the United States with millions of local and foreign visitors flocking the lively state each year. Hotels, inns, resorts, and country clubs for sure have handy brochures, maps and even florida fishing guide leaflets for tourists to refer to when they explore the place.

Florida is also a host to many tourist attractions like museums, parks, theaters, and a whole lot more. A day or a week perhaps would surely not be enough to see all the sights and sounds Florida has to offer.
