Earth Hour 2 Nite

Congrats to Elmund & Rebecca on their baby boy that came into this world today at 9.48am. May God bless you and your family :)

I Know Im Late

   Apparently I was supposed to write a long story about myself, but unfortunately I still am not able to publish that yet. Hehehe, sorry guys. As something came up and I had to rush a few things to get it done. Not to mention the wonderful internet connection I’m currently going through as well. As I wouldn’t want to rush something, and leave out a lot of things behind. Never the less, I’m pretty much half way through it. Ok, so what have I been doing lately? Well, apart from rushing work and getting my laptop up and running once more. Basically I’ve been asked to do a lot of “other” things as well, which from time to time I would love to shout it at the top of my lungs “WHY ME???” Hehehe.. Never the less, it’s all good.

   Apart from that, I’ve been fooling around with a few photos as well. Dunno why, but it sorts of calm me down especially editing them. Yup, I know I should blog but I guess I didn’t really want to write about anything yet during that time. Never the less, it’s all good. Anyway, I’ve also developed a few of them and I pretty much found out how to determine the size of the photo out come. I’ll give out the measurements later, as I don’t have it with me. But never the less, it cost about RM12 for an 8R photo, and RM20 for 11R photo. Getting it framed was a bit costly as well, especially when they developed a smooth surface type. But anyway, it’s all good. You have a good day now.

Cool Tuesday

   5 months passed by so quickly. And Esther is pretty much growing very well I suppose. As she’s pretty much learning new things almost everyday, she’s indeed a great charmer among the customers whenever she comes down to the shop for a short visit. Never the less, it’s really been good having Esther around which pretty much completes us as a family.

   Was thinking of a Dear Esther, episode but then I guess I’ll leave that till next time. So what’s her progress so far? Well, apparently she’s been trying to stand up now. She still couldn’t do it on her own yet, whereby whenever both Deluxe and myself tend to carry her. She keeps on trying to straighten her legs as if she wanted to stand on her own. So we did get her to try a few mini exercise, but I guess she haven’t got the strength yet. Never the less, shes pretty much enjoying herself with all the attention she’s getting. I couldn’t help but to notice how she grew up so quickly in front of my eyes. And so far, it’s really been a roller coaster ride ever since she came into our lives. It’s a good thing though.

   I remember the time when I was pretty down with something a couple of months ago, she seems to lighten me up with her smile and of course with her baby talk. At times I even wonder if she understands us or not. Never the less, shes really fun to play with and not to forget her diaper changing session. At the moment she’s still breast feeding, and pretty much still get up in the middle of the night, probably due to the fact she’s hungry. And she pretty much gets up as early as 7am if I’m not mistaken. Yeah during that time probably I’ll take her down for an hour and half just to give Deluxe some rest. But lately, apparently it went the other way round because I’ve been sleeping very late. Will get my clock right by tonight. Hehehe.

   Anyway, Deluxe is a wonderful person. And I’m extremely amazed by her as the amount of energy she has. But no doubt she’s pretty much tired just by looking after Esther. But the thing with her is like, she just can go on and on and on without none stop just to take care of Esther. As for me, I remember there were times when we swapped place for a few days. The moment Esther fell asleep, I also took the advantage of sleeping as well. Lol. Not for Deluxe though, once Esther goes to sleep there’s bound to be something for her to do. Lol. She’s really my best friend, who pretty much know when something is bothering me even though I don’t show it. I thank God for her, being there for me whenever I need someone to pull me out from my slump. So when I recall the vow we said to each other, “For richer or for poorer, in sickness or in health, till death do us part(hopefully not too soon)” pretty much means a lot to me after being married with her for over a year and a half. Though we have petty arguments at times, but we pretty much resolve it on the spot as well. So it’s all good. Anyway, I got to go now as it’s time to close the shop. Sidetrack a little, business been good these past two days as it is school holiday now so there are people coming here. You guys have a nice day.

When Things Dont Always Go Your Way

   Ok, all this while I’ve pretty much been blogging about mostly opinion rather than personal things. As I was still pretty much aware of the things I would love to share, and things I pretty much would just like to keep it to myself. An example of the things I wouldn’t want to share is probably the time when I was ……. Or the other time when I was …….. Yeah, so I guess it’s not that much important or relevant when I come to think about it. Anyway, there are a few things I’ve pretty much decided over the weekend, hence the topic above which I think it’s very appropriate.

   Ok, on to the story. My laptop had pretty much died, and the only way to revive it is by getting a heart transplant. Unfortunately there are no available donor as the model is pretty much obsolete, and the only way to revive it is by using a different brand heart. I’m still not sure if it would work, but I guess that’s the only thing that can be done. Yes the power adapter got blown up I suppose. Not too sure what’s the cause though. Sigh, some more it blown up when I really needed to rush a work. So while waiting for the parts to arrive, I currently removed the brain and temporary used a connector to it in order for me to work.

   When things couldn’t really get any worst. Remember the bad internet connection that I’m currently going through at the moment. Well, after I managed to borrow a modem from a friend of mine. The problem some how seems to stop, and it wasn’t that bad when I got disconnected. When it happened today, I quickly went and tried to use the modem my friend borrowed me. Lo and behold, apparently it’s the modem problem. Apparently the borrowed modem had no problems with the Internet, and once I swapped back to my modem. Well, the modem pretty much didn’t worked again. Only for a certain time period, but it works for now. So right now I’m not sure if I should replace this modem or not. Sigh… Prolly need to burn the pocket once again.

   Well, that pretty much sums up my weekend. Whereby I was struggling to find out what was wrong with my laptop and apparently my modem. At the moment, I”m still pretty much cooling down from the drama I had earlier on this afternoon. Wouldn’t want to go into too much details of it as I don’t think it’s worth remembering when I look back again next time. Anyway, when things don’t naturally goes your way, I noticed that my fuse tends to be very short. Deluxe and Esther tried to cheer me up, after dunno how long of “ego” had to be broken, I finally gave in towards the end. Never the less, Every Cloud Has A Silver Lining. Why I say so, is because I got a call from an advertising company wanting to use our store to shoot our antiques as well as handicrafts. Apparently they are working with the tourism ministry and wanted to feature our store. So I guess, after the long rough weekend of anguish and despair. Things pretty much worked out today, and also I’ve been asked to do a major life changing decision. Which I think I might or might not reveal until everything is pretty much certain.

   As for now, I feel much better after blasting it out here. Which I feel maybe it’s a good place to release out emotion and feelings deep down inside. Never the less, I must be very careful with what I speak now especially during times like this it’s not good blowing up in front of Esther. As what I read from the book, it’s not healthy. Anyway, I think I’ll call it a day now. Need to rush for another work coming. You guys have a nice day..

She Loves Me Like A Rock

   Love could pretty much do a lot of things to many people. I’m not the type of person who is very nosy and pretty much mind my own business. But I so happened to witness a love scene right in front of my shop yesterday which I think was kinda weird. Not to mention, coming out from this person. What happened? Well, let’s just say from someone I think who talks very loud suddenly had a change of tone to become very soft. Hahaha, I guess she’s an old flame and I wouldn’t want to get into too details on that. Hehehe.

   Yes.. Love is indeed a wonderful thing to have. Not only do I love Deluxe, but the love for my family. Esther has indeed brought us joy not only to us, but my whole family. Just imagine what one small girl could do, that brought my family even closer. Heck, everyone been keeping up to date on her on how she is doing. Never the less, it’s all good and because it was out of love. I know it could be a corny message, but hey what to do. I think the whole world is deprive of love that’s why we pretty much have tons of problems.

   Not to go too far off like the war in Gaza previously, let’s take a look at our country here in Malaysia. You probably said there’s no war and things may be fine. But the people who needs most love, are the poor people, the sick, the disabled, and of course the forgotten. There are a lot of cases, whereby we tend to close one eye when we see someone in need. Mother Theresa could be the best example one could follow is to give love to them, as much as we could. Maybe we find it a bit hard to do it. Why? Well, I guess once we start doing it. One person is good, and when we go do it to another few more people, we could even ended up being robbed. We are so cautious that it pretty much blind us from everything. Are we being selfish or in other words, just playing safe. Whatever the reason are, maybe we all should start taking risk once in a while and really see the needs of people. Who knows it could change your perspective. It pretty much changed mine.

   And with the increase of crime rates here, I guess it wouldn’t help much either. Why these people steal? Probably because out of desperation, or they are just to plain lazy to work hard and in hope to get quick cash. But all this I guess could be solved, if they have been love enough they should know what’s right from wrong. No doubt the country is currently fighting against recession, and many may seem skeptical about it. But let’s hope that the government would be wise to ensure victory against recession. Anyway, why I thought of writing this was because I saw this video clip which I think it was really funny how it brought back memories. Never the less, have a nice day.
