Covetous of small gains

Shopping malls often carry out some activities, including big promotion at the end of the year, stocks clearance big sales, great holiday discount ect. I have little doubt concerning the prices for these activities.I wonder whether the discounted price will be lower than other malls or not. Whether they increase the selling price first and then to reduce it.
 
Such as some sort of biscuit, mall A usually sell at RM13.90 and reduce to RM12.50 on promotion. But mall B usually did not promote and the selling price just only RM11.90. Imagine the two shopping malls in the price comparison. Will you choose mall A to buy that barrel of biscuits during the promotion?  

However, not all prices of goods in mall A are relatively high. And sometimes some of the goods will be lower than mall B. This is the way businessmen operate their businesses. Consumers should learn their own shrewd.
 
There is a situation when you purchase, you are sure to know the benefits. Is that when we buy the goods we often bought, now the price is the same as usual, but this time there are gifts, or its component has increased. As I bought yesterday a few goods that way.

This time to buy a box to have 2 free sachets

Covetous of small gains is the nature of everyone. To gain that small advantage, consumers are necessary to often run the various shopping malls in order to compare the prices. They have to do some homework.

Unpredictable

Heavy rain just now. Suddently pouring and non stop for 30 minutes. It stopped for about 10 minutes and suddenly continued for the next pouring.
 
Just like your recent mood, unpredictable!
But, Dear, I understand you. After all, you may be too busy and too tired!

Receipts For Years

Just received the electric bill for this month. Look at the bill and suddently think of the collection of receipts in the drawer. I took them out to have a look. Aah...some have been stored for forty or fifty years!

My mother often say: Regardless of any documents, including electricity, water, telephone charges,  town council tax etc, we have to stored them properly, even for years! In the event that the relevant authorities say no payment,then only we can produce as evidence.
You see, this is a variety of documents I had kept for years.

In this modern days, many people are directly on-line payment or auto-pay. I wonder the old people at home whether they will still asking to obtain a receipt.

No Chance

Last night when playing ping pong, one player said arrogantly that everyone of us is not his opponent.
And still saying that he did not do his best, otherwise we would lost the match with the score of 0-11.

Everyone of us agreed that he was amazing and skillful, but did not like his arrogant attitude.
I was also very unhappy and said loudly: In fact, I have unique skill that he never had a chance to win me.

Then it's his turn to be unhappy. He immediately wanted everyone to bet. Everybody looked at me in amazement.

I said to everyone: My trick is very simple.I just do not play with him. How could he have the opportunity to win me? 
He he he he ......

Persistent

With willpower to do one thing, this process is called 'persist'.
Not afraid of boring, not afraid of nagging, and do not give up.
Persist till the end is victory.
BUT, who can continuing firmly or obstinately? Not necessarily there will be too many people.

Recently I found that I often dive to see the blogs. There are a lot of disappearing. Blogging everyday is not that easy. So I myself able to insist how long, I can not easily assert. 

I will try my best!

Eat like the Emperor

According to the Experts, we must take breakfast every morning and should eat well.
Experts also said that breakfast have to eat like an emperor. As you know Emperor eat well!
Lunch to eat like civilians. Civilians represent eat enough!
Whereas dinner have to eat like a pauper. Pauper eat less!

We all know the importance of breakfast. The morning is the beginning of the day. It's the time to obtain energy required for the day with good breakfast. To ensure we are provided with energy for the day, both physically and mentally, so eat well in the morning.
 
Noon is the most active time and energy consumption. So you have to eat enough.

Evening is the time to rest. So eat less, lest gain weight!

But the pace of life accelerated, especially for office workers. Their breakfast is "fast food" and omission. Even a cup of tea, a few slices of biscuits can consider to be their breakfast. But for those retirees, they should be slowly and deliberately eat like an emperor.

This is the breakfast I prepared for myself today. Am I eat like the emperor?!

Displeasure

Long time didn't go to that bank for withdrawal. Yesterday I went into that bank. I looked around and couldn't find the withdrawal form. I thought that the system had changed,that is no need to fill out the form anymore. 

I pressed for a number and waited for a moment. Then it's my turn.The cashier asked me to fill in the form.I said I couldn't find the withdrawal form.She asked me to go to the first counter. I went and the form was filled. I approached her once again.She told me to go and get a number.I told her the number had been given to her just now. She said that number was over. 

No way, had to go to press for another number. By the way I noticed that  the cashier was just sitting there and not for any customer service. 

Although I was called to another teller after some minutes, but I think that kind of attitude is too bad. Why she couldn't let me withdraw money at that moment! I really had given her a number and I didn't jump queue. 

Service attitude is the basis for reflecting the quality of service.Quality of service is from good service attitude. Good service attitude will make customers a sense of cordial and sincere.The teller should be proactive and conscientiously do the service work before the customer requests. In order to satisfied the customers and strive to improve the work of appropriate services,they should be thoughtful and comprehensive.But yesterday 's teller' s attitude is unacceptable.

Oh, I am not so good in baking. You are deceived. This is what I bought from the bakery.
 
Though you are deceived, it's no harm at all. As you know, I like to joke. Don't be serious and just smile without worry.

If you feel you have been cheated and hurt, please report to the police as soon as possible.
Please report the fraud to avoid other innocent people to be deceived.
Ho ho ho...sometimes being cheated can't make report to police. All kinds of commitments, all kinds of lies we meet daily and disappointed us are just simple deceived. That does not matter, take it easy.

BUT, we really have to be cautious nowadays. Beware of fraud group, phishing, enticing trick etc.

HONESTY IS ALWAYS THE BEST POLICY





 

The Journey Ahead

Flipping through my notes, I found this lyric. It was written by my sister. I asked a favor from her to write this out. Initially was to make a song out of it, as during that time, it was my graduation. However, I didn't manage to compose a song. Instead, I call it a poem.

Sky bright, rocky road;

I see birds soar, flower bloom;

Where will this road take me?

Some might find gold,

Some an empty cart,

Or should I find and old dragon,

Puffing out smoke?

Mind clear, throat quenched;

The weather by my side.

Bid a goodbye I shall;

To a child once I held dear.

Foot stepped firm yet uncertain;

Until I reach a certain part of the road;

Where there are many paths ahead.

Will the clouds cover the sun tomorrow?

Or will there be bread tomorrow?

Dark shadows from the abyss poisons’ my mind.

Day time I feel alone;

My voice can’t reach the world;

At night I isolate myself;

Fear creep up from my covers,

And haunt me during the day.

At time I may feel old;

Appearance may not tell so;

But I feel it inside.

Like butter spread over too much bread.

Stray not my heart;

The journey that I have chosen will not end easily.

As long as these stubborn legs continue to walk;

I shall guide it!

Shake off the insecurity.

None shall tell you how to walk,

Nor to breathe the air.

Unfortunate events may occur;

But too little time to mourn!

But at last, this all I have to say:

Starry night shall not put my heart to sleep

Wind of my home town will not carry me

At dusk I shall mourn for bed

At dawn with foreign bread

But fear not my heart, for this is not the first

The world ahead through many shadows and linger hearts

All shall past, all shall fade.

yay...souvenir again

It's a busy week for me, 30th June is approaching, 2 quarters in yr 2015 just passed in the blink of an eye. Some of my friends & family are going for holiday and short getaways to relax and reward themselves...and I feel grateful that I'm getting souvenirs again :)

Souvenirs from Taiwan 

  

Here's the snacks that that going to accompany me for this week.

Nom Nom...taste not bad!

(Left) What?!! Plaster + Chocolate? oh yes, that's chocolate, kind of weird idea. 

(Right) What's that? Minyak angin? lol...oh no, that's chocolate too

(Left) I like this bamboo peanut, it's convenient to have it in small packet. It reminds me of MAS salted peanut. Gonna grab some during my trip next month ... hehe

(Right) I have no idea what it is...gonna try it when I'm in the mood :P

Ooo... Mochi Mochi...Green tea flavor and another box is mix flavors. Well, I still prefer the Japanese mochi.

(silent...)...ok, It looks so "real" from far, yet, it is NOT the one in my mind, it's marshmallow...lol...

Caffeine souvenir?

Someone bought me souvenirs from Japan which is not in my wish list - Coffee & Green tea powder. I remember I didn't tell her that I need "caffeine", I just told her I want banana, Tokyo banana =P But it's alright, I'm still getting my banana souvenir, just wonder how would be the taste of this DYDO brand coffee. 

Will add in my comments in this post after I've tried it. :) Stay tuned~

Tried the small Dydo blend coffee today (25/6), taste nothing special, like normal canned coffee :)
