Poor fish

Poor thing, looks like another fish is on its way to fish heaven again. I found it upside down in the fishtank this morning. What its is with me and keeping fish? They just keep dying on me I should just get some plastic fish. Then I'll have nothing to worry about.

On another thing; I found the phone number on my business website is wrong by one digit. No wonder the phone hasn't been ringing. Stewpig me! Well its fixed now so hopefully the phone will start to ring.

Birth announcements

It’s hard to find a good card nowadays; I’m looking for a birth announcements card that is unique and special for a friend who’s expecting the birth of her child soon. We’ve been to the stationary shop and saw how unimpressive the cards there are so we’re still looking high and low for that special card. I just hope we find it before the baby pops!

OMGawd!

Ahhh! Swine flu is all around us! There are cases of this latest deadly disease in my neigboring suburbs and we're right smack bang in the middle of it. Now I'm too scared to go out for fear of catching the bug from strangers. Then again maybe I already have it since I've been coughing a lot with sore throat and all. OMGawd!

Computer memory

I remember years ago computer memory modules used to cost a bomb. It was a luxury few computer users could afford. Then the prices started tumbling down and everyone can afford to give their computers a boost in performance by upgrading the memory. In fact it is so cheap that I’d always maximize the memory to its full capacity. Why not? It’s too cheap!

Self medicate

Damn! Must be the sushi I had for lunch that's giving me a gut ache. Then again I've been getting gut aches quite frequently lately due to gawd knows what? Everyone could be eating the same thing and yet I would be the only one with gut ache. It must be just me, I need to see a doctor I think but I hate going to the doctor's. In fact I don't like doctors so I usually self medicate!

Elliptical

Having gained quite a consideration weigh I thought I’d better hit the gym. Unfortunately I’m one of those people who are too lazy to go to the gym so it will be a costly exercise for me if I sign up. The alternative is to have my own gym at home. Yes I think I can turn one of my spare rooms into a gym, all I need is to buy a couple of exercise machines like an elliptical and treadmill. Brilliant!

Need to fill up

The weather has been exceptionally warm for this time of the year. We're nearing the end of May and winter is just around the corner and yet we're having 22C days. Not that I'm complaining about it, the warm weather is nice and all but it has been too dry for my liking. We need a bit of rain would be nice. I need to fill up my water supply.

HGH

We can all do with a bit of help when it comes to our health and looking good. That’s why more and more people are taking up HGH supplements nowadays to make themselves feel younger. Some even resort to taking synthetic HGH injections which isn’t a safe way of going about it. We should do our homework before deciding on the best HGH supplements to suit us to prevent any complication down the track.

Great weekend.

Its Monday again, the weekend went past so quickly. Not entirely a mundane weekend though, we did get to do a couple of things. On Saturday we went to a friend's house for dinner with her family and a movie in their home theatre. Didn't get home till 1 am and that's rare for me now.

Then on Sunday Terese's sister came to visit with her 2 children. It's good to see them again and the kids are just as adorable as before. We went to lunch down the street and came back home for a kiddie movie before they went home around 4 pm. That's the end of the great weekend.

Sales Training

The thing with your own business is that you have to be everyone yourself like the administrator, accountant and sales person. You need to know a bit of everything just to run your business properly. Now most of these skills I supposed you could learn as you go but sales training is very important because your profit margin depends on how well you market your products.

So do I go or chicken out?

I was mucking around on the internet last week when I entered myself in the TV game show Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. In the application I got to play a little game online but I think I didn't do so well so I didn't think much of my chances. Little did I know I got accepted to a second audition for the show next week! So do I go or chicken out?

Lipofuze reviews

I’m always happy to try anything new at least once. Who knows, just because it’s new doesn’t mean it hasn’t been proven to work. It might just be the one that works for me, not all things work for everyone but when I find things that work for me I’ll stick to them. So that’s why I’m willing to give this new product a go after reading the Lipofuze reviews. I think it just might be the one for me.

Wiating for customers

Finally the business website is done and online. After a couple of months since I contacted Bryan about it its finally done. I must say Bryan did a good job, the main ideas coming from me. I wouldn't have a clue how to build the web pages but Bryan basically did what I told him to do. Now I'm just waiting for customers.

Maternity Clothes

Having a baby is the best and most rewarding thing in the world but it also mean you'd have to make some wardrobe adjustment for at least 9 months. It doesn't necessarily mean you have to be in rags for the term of the pregnancy, you can still look good in maternity clothes from DueMaternity.com where you can find all the clothes you need to get you through the pregnancy.

Ad campaign

To help with the ailing business I've started an online ad campaign. I've listed the business in many online business directories like AussieWeb or Dlook. They all claim to be free but once you've signed up with them they start calling you up trying to sign you up as a paid customer. I've signed up as a paid customer with Dlook just to test it out for 6 months to see if it will help generate any leads. But the best result actually comes from AdWords where I've already have 1 lead.

Ma huang

There’re always new phrases or words to learn everyday like just the other day I came across a phrase ma huang which I have no clue of what it is supposed to be in English. But somehow it sounds very familiar to me in my native tongue meaning troublesome or nuisance. So I’m guessing anyone can use any language they like on the internet and no one’s going to stop you!

Gale force wind

Weather wise it is going to be a crappy day today. Gale force wind but little rain is not what my garden needs. The wind will cause the most damages since it willbreak and smash all the plants around. Woke up this morning to find the plastic sheet protecting the veggie patch was flapping in the wind and it has also flatten a few seedlings. I hope they'll be okay.
