I have family and friends in other countries and sometimes getting in touch is difficult because of the expensive call costs.  What we normally do is chat online.  But imagine the hassle of typing what you have to say.  Sometimes I just don’t want to get in touch anymore because I sometimes feel lazy tapping [...]

indonesian food

I had a classmate who was half Indonesian and half American.  The first time I saw I thought she was American.  But I was surprised when she started talking to me in my native language.  This was during my days in beauty school.  It was a fun and educational experience for all of us.  We [...]

t-shirt printing

May 29th, 2009 · 1 Comment

The more popular corporate giveaways are coffee mugs, umbrellas and t-shirts.  I particularly loved receiving coffee mugs as I used to collect them.  But if you’re the one giving out these items, t-shirts would be the wise choice. T-shirt printing costs less especially if done in bulk.

mothers and dark baggy eye circles

May 28th, 2009 · No Comments

antique reproductions

May 28th, 2009 · No Comments

I love antique furniture.  I have bought a few, only a few since antiques cost so much.  And I don’t know if 1950’s furniture can be considered antique, I know they are vintage but I don’t know if vintage and antique are one and the same.  Anyway, I’ve been planning to buy a 1950’s Hans [...]
