Today is Christmas Eve!







Now, it's that time of the year again for a yuletide season and Jesus is the reason for the season! It's Christmas eve today. Tomorrow, we will treat the family to a simple Western lunch somewhere. Since it is still MCO here, in Malaysia, we did not go to Genting Highlands as we used to in every Christmas time. So, to stay safe, we decided to stay at home here in Penang. It's never boring for me, because I shall have sometime to do daily.

Below is my certificate of completing a Social Media Management course from Coursera that was sponsored by MDEC.





So, you see, my days are pretty preoccupied with online learning and marketing of Atomy while doing some homework for the test and quizes.

Below is a picture of my Maybank AMEX premier card for Tesco RM 50 voucher that arrived yesterday, in time for my Christmas shopping!



Finally, have a lovely Christmas Eve dinner and Christmas lunch with your loved ones and pamper them while they are still alive! Below is my final picture of Christmas Eve greeting with splendid message and composition.



Stay safe and stay at home, people. Always wear a mask when going out to public places.

[Video] Unboxing of Atomy Products in time for Christmas 2020



Above is a self-shot video of myself unboxing Atomy products, especially the Christmas assorted cookies boxes. Excuse my 'sexy' voice. ;)

Today, I typed a quotation for the company as I work in a home office. Hence, anytime is home-office working time. And of course, anytime is power nap time. I will work whenever I am in the mood and nap whenever I am tired mentally or such. I am now in love with Atomy products and am married to the e-Commerce platform! Jokes aside, Atomy products are really prestigious at affordable prices for the masses. If you want to join and register free for Atomy, an online shopping mall like Lazada and Shoppee, except that it sells its own Atomy-branded products, do contact me at 60111-6694988 or email diana.tan(AT)gmail.com

Below is a picture of my AEON vouchers, which arrived in time for some Christmas shopping.



The vouchers above were redeemed from my Visa Infinite credit card for a total of RM 50.00

That's the benefit of using your credit card continuously instead of paying with cash.

Today, I managed to request for another redemption of RM 50.00 Tesco vouchers from my AMEX credit card. Frankly speaking, AMEX has better benefits and the TREATS points are easier to accumulate than other Visa or Master cards. They multiply faster too, in order to reach the minimum benchmark for vouchers redemption. There are choices of AEON Big, Tesco, Watson, KFC, etc vouchers, and I chose Tesco. Note that AEON and AEON big might be different, and AEON big mall might not be in Penang. Hence, to avoid this and to play it safe, I chose Tesco vouchers instead.



Also, to end this blog post on a positive note, above is a picture of Christian words of wisdom to encourage us all in this pandemic, that had caused almost 58 million lives around the world and possibly 6 years of famine to recover from the outbreak that started early this year in mid-March. Stay safe and always wear a mask in a public place.

My Half-day Christmas Shopping at Queensbay Mall in Penang

I am relieved that my Youtube is finally working again. Now I am more cautious what I put into the channel, clips and such. It is not easy to make a video that takes hours to complete from shooting to editing and uploading. This week, I have to concentrate on MDEC courses and bidding to show my commitment. They are the paymasters, hopefully. Whoever works, will earn. As simple as that. Those who refuse to lift a finger will go hungry, as written in the book of Proverbs.

Below are some pictures from my Instagram account that you can click on the > icon to swipe left. These are few of the pictures used in the video above.



As I get to use ClipArt for free as a reviewer for 1 year, and it expires on November 2021, I will take the opportunity to showcase some of these copyright free images as far as I am concerned:



Life itself is stressful. So, let's put some love and humor into our Good Morning message with positive vibes like the music of 'Limbo Rock' below:



It is our Heavenly Father who created music; with songs of praises to worship Him. God will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with His love and He will rejoice over you with singing!



That's it for this week's post and I hope that you will stay safe at home and always wear a mask in public place. Peace!

Christmas shopping and decorations in Penang 2020

Above is a short video on my Christmas shopping and the decorations at a mall in Penang 2020. See the red and green theme for every year end of Christmas decorations. I love the mall's superb decorations that are awesome and attractive. This is a premier shopping mall and upscale too. Despite the MCO and pandemic, I am still optimistic of a jolly Christmass, where this is the reason for the season: The birth of our Lord Jesus Christ as a babe to redeem the world from the curse of Adam.

Below is a TikTok short video using a paid gif and animations added with music on the other platform:

Finally, stay safe and always wear a mask in public places.

Working at Home, but...

Working at home has always been my dream job. You see, I hate waking up to alarm clocks, getting dressed for work to get stuck in snarling traffic jams. And sometimes, it takes an hour or so to commute to the office, just to count the time and get back home again. This is a vicious cycle just to earn your salary that is just sufficient to pay the bills, and food. At the end of the month, your bank account is just 1 digit left.

Although, my business partner and myself may have our quarrels over work, at the end of the day, it is just a normal routine and we forget the differences. Work comes with its fair share of stress, and there is no grace. It is not a charity and things need to get done in a timely manner. Many times, it is my business partner's very hot temperedness and tendency to explode like a time bomb. I have to learn how to manage him and to put a stop to this bullying! He is more subdued now but has his idiosyncrasies of always wanting to be in charge and can overturn your work and decision with the client to show them who's the boss. As he loves to watch wrestling, his poor PR and lack of English proficiency, he has a tendency exaggerate things up. Generally, most men are like this, don't you agree?

As they say, be a Leader, Not a Boss!

He is still very much committed to his family in Australia and singapore. And here, we are together just because of the business.

Which is why, now I have to take pro-active action to achieve a dream life with someone who is not two-timing me. Life is comfortable now but I dare not think of the future, to be honest. With the pandemic raging and the numbers keep increasing, I don't know if there is going to be worldwide recession which will affect everyone. This is also part of the reason, I joined MDEC to earn a little from Freelancing, blogging and to promote atomy as well as a consumer.

Okay, that's it for now and I shall call this a day on this Sunday morning.
