n How many hours you spend in front of your computer everyday? Less than 3 hours? More than 5 hours? I never count how many hours I spend here as my son keep on nagging me all the time, so I usually write for 5-30 minutes then I step off for a while to nurture my children. If I may sum, I think I sit here more than 4 hours a day! If I am not online, I am retouching some pictures or playing games with my sons. Why do I ask this to you? Well... that question leads to this question... do you feel stiff shoulders especially the right shoulder? I do! :-(( I am sure it is caused by this computer desk and chair that are not ergonomic... I have tried to design this computer desk by myself in fact, I am not a furniture designer *sigh* How does your computer desk look like? I want to know if you think your computer area is nice and shoulder-friendly to you! Work place is really important to be ergonomic, so we have to be thoughtful when we buy office furniture, computer furniture a...

Got this from Pamela and I think it is fun! Go Draw a Pig and your illustration will be analyzed to describe your personality. I agree with Pamela, it was difficult drawing a pig with a mouse! But it's much easier than drawing a mouse with a pig... hahaha.. This is my result, They said I am direct, enjoy playing devil's advocate and neither fear nor avoid discussions. (I think I agree with this though sometimes I feel reluctant to discuss something). I am analytical, cautious, and distrustful. (is it good? hahaha...) I am secure, stubborn, and stick to my ideals. (What do you think, hubby? Am I that stubborn?) I am a good listener (I think I do) In fact, I want to see another pigs... If you do this, please let me know so I can link you here! If it is possible, I want to see your pig! :-D Come on... draw it ... draw it now! You can see other cute pigs: Jean Chia's pig ---who's next?--- Hai, thank you for visiting this site...

Our Special Day!
2007-09-25 03:07:00
Hi readers, I am so happy today. 8 years ago, on this day, I married my best friend! A man that God has given me to respect, love and honor... his name is Hendra. I always remember my spiritual leader Benny Solihin said to me, he wished someday I would have a happy family. He said that when I was broken hearted! LOL... and amen! His prayer comes true. I met my hubby and we grow together in our marriage. Honey, if you read this please leave me a comment! Being marriage for 8 years is not a boring journey for us. From the beginning we asked God to lead our home... this is our prayer God help us to remember when we first met and the strong love that grew between us, To work that love into practical things so nothing can divide us, We ask for words both kind and loving, and hearts always ready to ask forgiveness, as well as to forgive, Dear Lord, we put our marriage into Thy hands, Thank you O, Lord Amen We truly realize that unless the Lord builds the house, its builders labor in ...

Do we need to do market research for our blog?
2007-09-24 02:02:00
A couple days ago I chatted with a friend about blogging. He asked me who my readers are and I can't explain to him! Sadly to admit, my blog has no specific things and no niche. This is the place for my rambling thoughts and a corner where I can learn to write and share. This is a place where I can explore myself to find what are exactly my most favorite things to write, and sooner or later I think I can find my own 'color' for my blog. How do you start your blog? Do you really take some time to think about what kind of blog you want to build? Do you think of who your target readers are? I am curious to know do we have to do some market research before we build a blog? Just like building a business, we have to know exactly what we want to sell, who our target market is and how we can sell it. Market research is a must for our business, how about our blog? In my opinion, to be specific is important so people can expect something from our blog. We can have loyal readers who...

Just like her, her sister, who was born in 1959 or 1960 and is three years younger than her, had also been adopted out to another couple, by her own paternal uncle. Both were born in the same hometown of East Texas, but are now being adopted by two different couples and have been separated since then. The sister is currently staying...

Update about Yah...
2007-09-16 14:44:00
Sorry for late posting.. I have called Yah and asked about her condition. She has her lung x-rayed and her phlegm was checked. She went to a lung specialist doctor as well... her daughter told me that the laboratory proofed she has no pneumonia in her phlegm.. that a relief for sure.. but there are some spots in her lung, so she still has to be treated well. Her cough is not so severe anymore, but it is still difficult for her to breath... they will go to the doctor again next month at 10th. When I asked them why it takes a month to go check up again, she said they didn't have enough money to go to the doctor twice a month. I made sure they have a month medicine, not just half.. and also will find a wise way to take Yah to the doctor 2 weeks later. I said wise because if I gave them money, they might use the money for something else instead of going to the doctor... Please continue to support them in prayer and update this news for your readers as they also pray for Yah... if yo...

Wayang -series : Petruk Character
2007-09-11 04:29:00
We have talked about Semar before, now we will meet his eldest son, Petruk. Petruk is a tall punokawan with long nose. In Sundanese (West Java) version Petruk is known as Dawala. There is a story about Petruk The Borneo King, he used a name Prabu Welgeduwelbeh or Prabu Kantong Bolong Bleh Geduweh. (Kantong Bolong means a hole in the pocket!). In puppet performance Petruk always walks by lifting one arm up high, raising up his forefinger, pointing up something, while the other arm is on his back, with hand hold in the fist. In this matter, Petruk symbolize a will, a wish and intention portrayed by his arms. Both of his arms describe two people who work together very well... one arm is pointing something he wants, while the other arm on his back hold something he has chosen tightly. In my humble opinion, this is very common be found in this world. People just think about themselves, collecting something they want and hold their possessions tightly, it might be their knowledges, t...

What Children Should Know...
2007-09-07 02:36:00
~Sponsored Post~ I agree with people who say that "Studying is a lot more than just homework". Disciplines, problem solving skills and determination are some among many important skills that children should learn. Knowledge is not the number one priority to be successful in life. As parents we have to pay attention to their Emotional Intelligent, Spiritual Intelligent and Life Skills. I myself am trying to teach Clay (my 7 years old son) not to give up and strive for the best. SCORE!'s Study Skills Course is an Innovative Tutor that can help us to teach skills that not specifically taught in most schools. The children from pre-kindergarten to high school will be taught about Organization and Time Management, Learning Styles, Processing Information, and Test Preparation.

I will introduce them to you one by one... begin from the oldest and have the most powerful magic in Wayang Mythology... Semar! Semar is one of the punokawan (clowns), but is in fact divine and very wise. He is always portrayed as short and fat with a pug nose and a big belly. There's interesting story about his big belly... One day his sly and cunning brother, Manikmaya suggested a competition to swallow a mountain and spew it again. Tejamantri, their other brother started the competition but failed to swallow the mountain due to his lack of power. Consequently, there was a change in his mouth.

I wonder what is my readers hobby and interests. Do you like photography and scrap? or may be you like sports or travelling... Do you collect something like stamps, letter papers, comics or may be DVDs? When I was teenager I loved making cards. I drew and made Christmas cards for my friends, so they love to receive my card because the cards were personally and specially made for them. After that, some of my friends asked me to design a sweet 17th birthday invitation. I got my first income from making invitation cards. Today I find a website about classic wedding invitation. I saw many elegant and classy designs in it, from Victorian look which give a classic touch to a casual and unique wedding invitation like message in the bottle invitation. Awesome! Wedding day is a beautiful moment in our life. In that day we become a one day king and queen! Just like Cinderella and the Price. And you know what...

In this weekend I heard two sad stories about our friends. Both of them are sick and need to be help. Let me share it with you…I think I will make a false name to hide their identities. Yah, 35 years old, is a woman who lives with her teenager daughter and hubby. Last Friday she was brought into a hospital because of suffocation. She has a pneumonia for about 3 months. I visited her a day before she went into a hospital, she was still ok. I was surprised when my mom told me that she was in hospital now. Doctor said that there is a constriction in her lung, and an ulcer in her stomach. What makes me very concern is that she is a needy. She works as a maid with salary around 44$ a month. She has a hubby who likes to spend her money for drink and women. In order to get some money she cooks and sells ready meal to her neighborhood workers. I estimate her husband and she can only earn less than 100USD a month. She loves her daughter very much, unfortunately her daughter ...
