Business Degree

Hubby has a Bachelor Degree in Law (MU) and at present, he is studying his 2nd degree in Mission (correspondence). By God’s will, he hope to graduate this year. I wonder whether he will go for the 3rd degree in Business Management. Maybe he can try the online business degree this time around since he is running his own business now.

I read that WGU’s online business degrees are specifically designed for working adults. I am sure they are flexible enough to cater for the busy schedule of a businessman. If time permits, I would like to obtain a 2nd degree too provided online degree is affordable or give special discount for a SAHM like me. ;)

Addicted to Farmville

Yup! Ashamed to admit that I am finally addicted to Facebook game; Farmville. Due to that, I hardly have time or lazy to spend time updating my blogs. It is fun to be able to plant, earn money, accept and send gifts, buy stuff like trucks, home, barn and truck accessories. But it won’t be for long coz MIL and the maid is leaving us this weekend. Meaning, I won’t have anyone to look after my 10mo baby while I glued myself to the computer. :P I’ll still play; addicted already mah. :P But I’ll choose the crops that takes 4 days to harvest. ;)

Incoming Links

I just realised that I have lots of incoming links. I don’t remember submitting this blog to a web directory list. I hope this spells “money” or “page rank”. ;) Taking about money, I still have not receive any reply from the advertiser. Looks like no income coming in for me. And…hubby decided not to buy any car until our children outgrew our cars! He wants to save some money to expand his business; buy more computers coz the demand is increasing. Which is good coz it also spells more income. :) Let’s just wait and see coz he changes his mind very often when it comes to buying a car.

No Traffic

I thought this blog of mine has no traffic at all. I thought of submitting it again to free directory to get more traffic until I received a few comments recently. Hmmm…there are people reading this blog. I guess most reads from feed reader these days. So that is the reason I don’t see much traffic here. They only come here when they have something good to say. :) Just like me; I read most blogs through feed reader too and only will visit the blogs when I have somethings good or useful to share.

Online Backup for Blogs

I almost got a heart attack when my blogs was suspended for more than 2 days. I was so worried that all my post in my children’s blog are gone for good. All the years of journalling their life history from the moment I conceived them to the day they start schooling and I hope to continue to the day they have their own child. I must start to back up my blogs so that I don’t have to worry anymore if my blogs got suspended again. Is there any online backup for blogs?

Email Archiving Service

Those days we have filing services, now we have email archiving services. When I was working, the task I dreaded most is to do filing. When I first started working in an office, I have to do it as to get familiar with all the filing system so that I know where to find certain documents when needed. Once I got familiar with all the files in the file room, I pushed the task to my clerks. ;) After a few years, I have to depend on my clerks to help me look for certain documents. If email, it will be much easier because you have the search box; just type the file name that you want and a list will appear. So easy.

Blog Suspended

This is the first time my blogs have been suspended for 4 days in a row. This time, it has nothing to do with my plugins because this happened to all the website under this same webhosting company. Don’t ask which webhosting company; a good friend of mine is hosting all my blogs. :D

PTL! They are up and alive now. I shall start ranting here again. ;)

Business is Slow

Hubby got the opportunity to buy over an internet cafe but he let it go because we are not eligible to obtain the personal loan from the bank. Thank God that we did not buy the internet cafe because business in our own internet cafe is slowing down. Even the salesman that sells wholesale computers told hubby that his sales has dropped a lot since last month. For the time being, we have to be contented with just one internet cafe to run and pray that God will bless the business that we will have sufficient income every month.

Mini Laptop

Just a few days before I gave birth, I tagged along hubby doing his errands, just to get out from the house. One of the places that we went often is the computer shop. There I got my eyes glued at the latest mini laptop. If only I can have one, it will be so convenient for me to carry it around when I leave home. I can even blog in my car while waiting to fetch my girls from school. Hmmm…I need to do my research and check out the laptop deals over the internet; I might get it cheaper online.

Christian Online Highschool

I love to study, at least that is how I felt when I was in campus. Now, with 4 children at home it would be a privilege if I could continue my studies. My hubby on the other hand, does not like to study. In spite of that fact, he is still doing his second degree. Maybe I too should take up my second degree or do my masters.

God willing, I wish for all my children to be able to complete at least a degree course. It would be good if they can do their Masters or PhD. Of course, if they intend to serve God in any ministries, they would have to have Biblical studies. There are a lot of Bible colleges and universities to choose from. They can even do online study from a Christian online highschool. The good thing about online study is that they do not have to travel all the way across the world to study. They can do their study at home anytime, anywhere.

I Prayed. He Answered My Prayer.

Praise God that one of the advertisers that I used to work with, is back in business with me! 3 months ago, his boss put everything on hold because they were cheated by bloggers before; links should be up for a year but after getting the money, the bloggers took it down. In order to be on the safe side, they stopped accepting blogs from me. They wanna see whether those bloggers I recommended will keep their words.

After 3 months and I am totally broke, I shoot an email to him asking about it and PTL! he wants more blogs from me and now the deal is much better for the bloggers. Even PR0 is accepted but with lower pay which is so much better than none. Previously, they only accept PR2 and above.

I hope with the extra cash that I will receive, I would be able to bring my children for a short holiday by the beach and upgrade my laptop memory. :D

Isn’t our God great. I was whining the other day to hubby that my income this month is gonna be worst than last month and we won’t have enough to pay our bills. He told me, “Why don’t you just pray?” Well, I did just that. :D

Free WiFi at KFC

Hubby’s internet shop is located near Giant Hypermarket where one of it tenants is Kentucky Fried Chicken Restaurant. When KFC just started operating, there is no free WiFi given out to their customers. A few months back, hubby noticed that a few students were sitting outside his shop using their laptops and accessing the internet. He was surprised as his shop does not offer any wireless connection services. Later he found out that the students are using the free WiFi connection by KFC.

Now, if I am the owner of KFC, this is a matter that should be taken seriously. I am sure KFC is offering the free WiFi as an incentive to attract customers to surf the net at their premise and at the same time they will buy some food or drinks. Well, this is an extra services that I am sure customers would appreciate. However, if the extra services can be used without the need to buy anything from KFC, it would definitely defeat the purpose of offering the extra services.

Hubby informed the manager about it but until now nothing has been done about it. Of course, the manager is not an expert in IT and would not know how to solve the problem. KFC should engage a reliable IT company like new york it services to ensure the setting up of the free WiFi is done correctly. Or maybe KFC should just pay hubby to do it for them. :D

Blogging from Internet Cafe

I have been sleeping early for the past few days and that piled up my work. So here am I at hubby’s internet cafe blogging away. Since today is Monday, it is sure a busy day especially people coming to photocopy, print and fax. Hubby asked me to help with the photocopy and I wasted 94 pages! I think he better let me stick with blogging.

He even left the shop for half an hour to go out for lunch with his friend, leaving his wife in hunger. If got the LCD HDTV, at least watching some love and comedy movies would divert my attention from food! :lol: He came back empty handed!

munchies

Well, I will just continue munching my Jacob’s Hi-Cal Vegetables biscuit and cup after cup of Boh Peppermint Tea.

Glad To See YOU

Nowadays, if I come home to see my laptop on my computer table, that is a blessing! These days, hubby often bring along my laptop to his shop to play his Cabal online game. Then arh, if all the PCs in his shop are occupied and there is still customer wanna use the internet, my laptop will be rented to him/her.

I don’t really like the idea of using my laptop as laptop rentals because there are so many personal stuff in here and most password are “remembered” in this laptop. You wouldn’t know when the user will get nosy and snoop around. :(

Looking for Long Lost Friends

In my life to date, I do not have many friends. Partly because I do not like to join cliques because I was rejected from a clique when I was only in Primary Two because I am not pretty and tall enough. Furthermore, cliques are too girly for a tomboy me. I made good friends with 2 shorty boys who are very much taller than me now. ;) What happened to the tall and pretty girl cliques? They are still prettier than me and I am way taller than them now. hehe. I am a late bloomer.

This goes on until now. I only make few good friends throughout my schooling life. Unfortunately, I did not keep the contact of those good friends that I’ve made. That is my only regret. The only way is hoping that they would join community like 3gb. I hope to stumble upon them one day. That means that I need to join every community there is in the internet because I wouldn’t know which community they will be in. Hard work man!

If not, I would just enjoy the mp3 music that if available in that community or I could even make good friends along the way. I could even promote my blog and bring more traffic to this blog of mine.

Heaven is So Real

I can’t imagine that the title brings the most comments in my kid’s blog. To date the Heaven is So Real post written on March 29th, 2005, that’s 3 years ago has 217 comments and still receiving comments from time to time.

I did not write a review of the book, Heaven is So Real which was written by Choo Thomas but readers use my blog as a platform for them to discuss about Heaven is So Real. I guess I am the first blogger to write about it and my comment box is opened to everyone except those who uses not so nice words, their comments will be deleted by yours truly. ;)

And also then, that blog of mine has a PR4. That post was ranked 3rd after Choo Thomas’ website and Amazon. Then after the Google Smack, my PR went to zero until now, the post was gone from the first top 20! Since then I don’t see any new comment coming in until today. That was more than 3 months ago.

To my surprise, today, that post rank No. 6 in Google Search. Is this an indication that I will soon get my PR back??? Please let it be Lord.

My Legacy

When you finally return to your eternal home, what type of legacy would you leave behind for your love ones? Besides the memory of me, the only tangible legacy would be my blogs.

Today, I found a website that we can leave our footprint behind, MyFootprints.com. It is very easy to use where we can add family and friends to be linked to our page. I can add my last wishes, mostly what to do with my body after I have returned to the Lord. Then I can have my last email, last video and my secret diary which will only be made known to those that I selected after I died.

In MyFootprints you can also find my favorite photos, all there is to know about me and also I can start a life journal in it. This is so interesting; I really recommend it for you to sign up. I am sure you would love it, like I do.

Here’s a video clip about MyFootPrints.
