Not happy with this template

So, I last changed my blog template probably a month ago. The truth is, I'm still not satisfied with how this blog looks. I think the template is a bit too 'tight' for my liking. Like everything is squeezed together and the main post don't get enough space to 'breathe'. What do you think? Going through the thousands of blogger template to choose one that suits me, that's hardwork. If I have lesser choice, perhaps it'll be easier. You know, people are like that, always torn between choices. We're all so spoilt :)

Favs bows

Here are some of my favs from Etsy:

I'm an Etsy lover

When I'm free, I love to visit "Etsy". It's an place where people sell their handmades/crafts and such. Can't believe there are actually so many creative birds out there. Some of the handmade stuffs I saw are so beautiful, I just don't know how these people did it. It's either they are super talented or they are super patient in trying to create something different, something bold. I've got my own Etsy, it's Prettipedia. It's still very new, nothing in my listing yet. It's OK, give me some time, I'm getting there.

Buy Spirulina here

By now, you should know how good spirulina is. It is probably one of the best health supplement you can find, as Spirulina is 100% natural and a highly nutritious micro salt water plant. It was discovered in South American and Africa in natural alkaline lakes.
This spiral shaped algae is a rich food source. For a long time (centuries) this algae has constituted a significant part of the diet of many communities. Since the 1970's, Spirulina has been well known and widely used as a dietary supplement in some countries.

Spirulina contains rich vegetable protein (60~ 63 %, 3~4 times higher than fish or beef ), multi Vitamins (Vitamin B 12 is 3~4 times higher than animal liver), which is particularly lacking in a vegetarian diet. It contains a wide range of minerals (including Iron, Potassium, Magnesium Sodium, Phosphorus, Calcium etc.), a high volume of Beta- carotene which protects cells (5 time more than carrots, 40 time more than spinach), high volumes of gamma-Linolein acid (which can reduce cholesterol and prevent heart disease). Further, Spirulina contains Phycocyanin which can only be found in Spirulina.

Benefits of spirulina

• Supports the immune system

• Helps in the repair of DNA

• Many people taking spirulina find they have more energy
• Lowers cholesterol - Japanese and Indian studies have found that taking several grams of spirulina every day lowers cholesterol. In these studies, serum low density lipoproteins (the 'bad' cholesterol)

was reduced, and high density lipoproteins (the 'good' cholesterol) were increased.
• improvement in the functioning of heart arteries, which is important for sufferers of high blood pressure.

• Detoxification

The Kiasu parents

Today's the last day of the Raya holiday, and tomorrow the kids will go back to school. Shern has Kumon class today, so for now we just stayed at home. I don't know about kids in other parts of the world, but kids in Malaysia are under big pressure, from their parents.

As much as I hate to admit, we parents are the ones that stress them up. I could easily point my fingers at other parents, because they want their kids to be so freaking bright, they start sending their kids to school at the age of 2! And by the time they are 4, they are good enough to be reading the enid blyton series, I'm kidding not!

So enough of finger pointing, me, as a mother, do not want my kids to be left behind, so I too start sending my kids to school early and enroll them for additional classes. So you tell me, who's fault is it anyway? You or me? Cut the crap, it's all of us, the parents.

Poor kids, the one we love so much, get so stressed up all because we parents are all damn freaking kiasu. Enough said.

Baby Gap Sandals- fishes

I've got this for sale. My friend got my baby this from US, and it's too small for her feet. So I'm putting it out for sale, only RM36 including shipping.
Size 6-12 months.

China attempting this?

Seriously, this? China are known to be copycats, they do the best imitation stuffs, everything from designers handbags to vertu mobile phone. Everything is so precisely same, right up to the bolt and nuts.
So, seriously are they going to attempt this? A bus as wide as a two lane roads, and vehicles driving through it? If yes, oh I'm impressed!

Blog sidebar dropped below the post!

Sharks, I'm having a problem here with my other blog. The previous blog template was actually a very nice one, but I was itching to change it, then the ultimately bad happened, no matter what blog template I choose, the size bar will drop way down below the post! Arggh! And I tried adjusting the width and everything in html, but it just won't work! Now my blog looks retarded.

If you happened to google this problem and found me, please drop me a comment- I mean a solution. Thanks!

You bastard got my daughter pregnant?!

Funny how human judge people, like it or not, we are all materialistic, here's how a typical parent will react, you know you want to say that.


An 18 year-old girl tells her Mom that she has missed her
period for two months. Very worried, the mother goes to the
drugstore and buys a pregnancy kit. The test result shows
that the girl is pregnant.

Shouting, cursing, crying, the mother says, 'Who was the pig that did this to you? I
want to know!'

The girl picks up the phone and makes a call.

Half an hour later a Ferrari stops in front of their house;
a mature and distinguished man with grey hair and impeccably
dressed in a very expensive suit steps out of the Ferrari
and enters the house. He sits in the living room with the
father, the mother and the girl and tells them: 'Good
morning, your daughter has informed me of the problem.
However, I can't marry her because of my personal
family situation but I'll take charge. I will pay all
costs and provide for your daughter for the rest of her life.

Additionally, if a girl is born I will bequeath her 2
retail stores, a townhouse, a beachfront villa and a
$1,000,000 bank account. If a boy is born, my legacy will
be a couple of factories and a $2,000,000 bank account. If
twins, a factory and $2,000,000 each. However, if
there is a miscarriage, what do you suggest I do?'

At this point, the father, who had remained silent, places a
hand firmly on the man's shoulder and tells him,
'You'll sleep with her again!'

Have a good one.

Selamat Hari Raya!

Here's wishing all my Muslim friends Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri. Maaf Zahir Batin.
Enjoy your long weekend.

Oh, at times like this, driving around town is such a bliss. So wide roads, so little cars. Love it!

Need a good laugh?

::LOL::

These photos are crazy funny.

As the saying goes: dumb blonde!

Crazy cute bento sets

Erm, I don't know what to say. These moms are too free, they've got nothing better to do, perhaps.

But, oh man, don't you just love their creativity? And I mean, that requires hell lot of patience and precious time.

I admit, as much as I love my kids, never ever will I even attempt any of this. Crazy cute bento sets!
