Dear Marzie, because you’re you, I’m celebrating today! May today be filled with sunshine and smiles, laughter and love. Happy Birthday.

I have freebies for you to print for Hari Raya. If you have a color printer, feel free to print it! Will make more if I have the time.

Enjoy!

I got to know about ChurpChurp from Marzie and as usual I was reluctant at first. But I registered anyway because I want to give it a try. I have so far gained RM25.47 for less than 5 tweets! yay! I am getting more assignment on my dashboard and that means more money in my account!

This tweet service is nothing like paid post, you only have to write minimum 140 words per tweet! So easy.

Interested?

Ok here’s how:

1. Essentially, you got to have Facebook (facebook.com) and Twitter (twitter.com) accounts.
2. And then register for ChurpChurp.
3. Later, authorize the Facebook and Twitter settings in your account and that’s about it really.
4. You are now eligible to receive various social media campaigns from ChurpChurp! That easy!

For now, ChurpChurp is open for registration for social media enthusiasts from Malaysia and Singapore only. Earnings credited to your ChurpChurp account vary depending on the number of followers and friends you have, how many times you Churp and also the type of assignments that you get. You can track your earnings via your ChurpChurp account page shortly after accepting and posting Churps. A minimum earning of RM100 / SGD100 is required before you can cash out your earnings with ChurpChurp. We will process payments 30 days after the end of the month when you cashed out.

Wait no more! Join ChurpChurp now and get extra money for Hari Raya! Yippee yay!

I am bored of the look of this blog. I want to change it. So expect a change anytime today. Tehehe.

Anyway, I’ve updated Yassin’s blog with his Boy lost in the Forest story.

I know I should be doing the illustrations for bigbook number 2 but I’m so not in the mood today.

Here’s wishing all Muslims Happy Ramadhan!

Glad that I managed to make more that what I had spent for the preparation of the carnival. Yay!

My husband and I suddenly felt like having an ikan bakar and so we went on the Net searching for the nearest place to have one. I remember a place called Cafe Lui as suggested by Dmystify in his blog but then my husband was faster, he found a place in Hulu Langat called Ikan Bakar Sri Murni that serves ikan bakar! The place is situated in the heart of Hulu Langat, not far from the Batu 18 town. The road leading to the place was quite dark and there were not so many people when we reached there. But during our dinner, people started flocking in, mostly groups with big family members. I was amazed that how on earth we didn’t discover this place before.

We had Ikan Siakap Bakar, Sambal Sotong, Kailan Goreng and Telur Dadar; enough for a family of four. Normally it was just the three of us but last month we have a new addition to our family, my niece Wanda.

The grilled fish was fresh from the restaurant’s pond and tasted very sweet. The tamarind sauce was great too. We will definitely come back next month to treat ourselves a fresh grilled fish amidst the lush forest of Hulu Langat. Maybe we’ll make it for lunch so that we can capture photos of the restaurant. Oh yes, and it’s a floating restaurant!

The address is:
Ikan Bakar Sri Murni
Batu 19, Kg Jawa
Hulu Langat
Selangor.

Here’s the map:

Everyday, we get to receive messages from unknown people, offering us millions of dollars. And when we read the messages, it’s clear that there were foul plays and it’s funny how the sender could actually think that we could fall into such trap. Normally, we could smell it at the very first paragraph.

Here are some examples of the messages:

“I am Avery D. Baker jr  a solicitor at law. I was the personal Attorney to Late Boguslaw Krupa ,53 years of age who made a fixed deposit of fund valued at USD$12,500,000 (Twelve Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) with a Finance Company here in Europe and unfortunately lost his life a plane crash”

“Attn: Please,
We wish to notify you again that you were listed as an Heir to the total sum of Five Million British Pounds in the codicil and testament of our deceased client. Name now withheld since this is our second letter to you. “

“Good day,
Firstly, let me identify myself without any intention of equivocation, I Mr. Johan Dickson 49years old, Financial Expert worked here in UK top bank, I will be happy if we can do business together in good faith and this proposal will be of mutual benefit for us. I have a transaction deal in the tune of $15,000,000.00 (Fifteen million united state American dollars} to be transferred to any possible safe account with your good assistance. I have every possibility & advantages for the proceeds of this account to be paid to you and then both of us can share equal percentage meaning 60% for me and 40% to you. Can I trust you on this subject matter?”

We know that to gain $1 takes a lot of effort but to gain $1 million? That must be ridiculous, right?

I am just sparking up a conversation here, just for the fun of it, on how would you react if you are the beneficiary of $1 million.

This is a fun subject to discuss and don’t be shy, do leave me your thoughts in the comment box. As for me, if I have $1 Million, below is what I would do:

UPDATE 2: The girl, CM, has apologised nicely to me already. That’s more like it. Thanks girl.

This is what the person who TOOK my image has to say in her chatbox:

done! blablablah.sorylah yer kak.next time disable right click utk image2 tuh.thx

That is one sarcastic and insincere apology.

She is asking me to disable the right click. I can do that but I have images that I offer as desktop wallpaper and what not and I simply cannot and do not want to disable the right click. I have words to keep. And that is why I have my copyright statement and terms of use in my blog.

Update 1: the header has been taken off from her blog.
