Many Articles to Write

There are many trip articles to write like Trip101, TripZilla, TripCanvas, TripHobo, etc. Trip101 is from Singapore while the rest could be from Malaysia, India and Indonesia. They pay quote all right, not too much and neither too little. You are paid just enough to motivate you to continue but you won't get rich this way. It is hard work with hours of research and curated articles. But it certainly keeps me on my toes all the time. Also, need to save up some cold hard cash for my coming overseas trip later in December, just before Christmas, where I shall return to Penang.

I love reading

My writing has improved by leaps and bounds. I read a lot of daily newspapers, financial magazines and the like. It has helped me in my writing work and blogging for some revenue. I am always hustling and hate to idle; because an idle mind is the devil's workshop. When you are free and idle, you start thinking of ways to get back at people and hurt them to feel better - some obnoxious people are born this way. Anyway, I shall dwell on the positive and hope to improve myself even further by doing a successful e-commerce so that I am not at the mercy of my boss cum friend with a very hot-temper and unpredictable. Then, I can have time and money freedom to do the things that I love like writing, blogging, selling and fulfilling orders.

Just Flew Back from KL

We set the alarm clock at 5:00am this morning to board the early flight at 6:20am by Firefly from Penang International Airport to Subang Airport in Subang Jaya, KL. We had a meeting at around 9:30. By politeness of kings, punctuality is key. There were 4-5 people inside the room and just the 2 of us. Personally, I don't feel too comfortable attending this particular interview where there are so many other competitors attendning at the same time. After returning to Subang Airport by Grab car for $39 one way, we had lunch at Secret Recipe where I ordered vegetarian lasagne and pure orange juice. We touched down Penang at 3:30pm, also by Firefly and went to collect company t-shirts for our workers, currently working in a factory where wearing uniforms is a must.

Happy Deepavali


I would like to take this opportunity to wish my readers a very Happy Deepavali. The kolam above was snapped below my condo unit of Phase 2 Penang Times Square on the ground floor of M Mall, started by the head honcho of Mr Teddy Teoh himself. Because of him, Ivory and Penang Times Square has revived and been rejunenated to a happening place. It used to attract Star Walk organisers before the controversial news came out. Well, everything is quiet now and back to normalcy.


The kolam, or hand-spread designs of coloured rice beads made into works of art, is very attractive and ushers in the Deepavali celebration for the Indians. The kolam above was taken at Empire Subang Gallery in Kuala Lumpur, near Subang Jaya. The design is indeed intricate and breathtaking. I love the contrast of colours and art.


This purple themed kolam of an elephant head was taken at Straits Quay ground floor, where Matta fair was held on the 6th floor of the convention hall. Don't you find this design amazing? Well, happy holidays and Happy Deepavali again!

My boss is coughing

My boss is coughing and a little sick now. Well, he is also my spouse and we stay together just for doing the business in a team. Otherwise, we have our respective families to turn to in case of help. We merely work as a team for a win-win basis to put food on the table for all our foreign workers and local ones, including our families, etc. Most of his cohorts at his age and classmates of Baby Boomers are already retired and down with sickness. But he is still healthy, able to drive 400km with stops in between and have been doing this for the last 13 years since we met. I pray for his speedy recovery, so that he can continue to helm the company

Pay Day

Today is supposed to be pay day, but my boss was too busy and tired, he postponed to tommorrow. There's just so many things to do each day and I enjoy the freedom to work at home, taking power naps when mentally tired. Just saw the news on Astro CNN that 50 people were dead and 400 injured in Las Vegas massacre. My prayers go to the victims and their families. Indeed this is a fallen world and we certainly need God's protection wherever we go and have the Holy Spirit inside us as beacon of light to guide us through this treacherous path of life. May perpetual light shine upon the just departed souls and be in a better place.

3 Piles of Books

Yesterday, treated my family to M Galleria at Times Square and then my second sister handed me 3 big piles of books, some on Art while others are on different topics. Well, I plan to read them through myself and sell via Mudah cheaply for some revenue. There are treasures from childhood that my parents, especially mum bought for my sisters and myself. She invested a lot of money in our reading materials together with dad who used to work as an English teacher in a remove class in a Chinese secondary school. Well, he is now retired and enjoying his retirement with monthly pension to spend.
