Online Tea Breaks

I forgot to Instagram yesterday so, here is why it is a catastrophe.

You see, first thing in the morning, it would be the usual...Gmail and maybe Facebook to troll around and see who can't sleep the night before. After haunting some friends' pages, it is time to get serious and start answering emails and ladida.

If I need a break or see something funny, out comes my phone and I would spend about 5 minutes reading and tweeting things. Sometimes random just to get the boredom out of my system, you know. Followers, I am sorry for those random tweets that sometimes make absolutely no sense whatsoever. Tweet happens.

Back to work.

When boredom rears its ugly head again, it is time to either tweet something or hit Tumblr and Pinterest. Tumblr and Pinterest brings me the most joy. Nobody knows me there on Tumblr and I can pose as a teenage girl ogling handsome young men there and NOBODY CARES! Liberty. Pinterest...well...because there are many LOL stuff there. Sometimes they make me laugh so loud that I find myself funny. Like...why am I slapping the keyboard like a best-friend who just told me a good joke, right?

Then it is just back to work....ladida....

Bored again? Time to hit Reader...yeah, Google Reader, the source of news and entertainment. If there is nothing there, I open twitter. There is always something on Twitter, the never-ending-source-of-good-and-fake-news.

Most of the time, I do the whole Instagram thing near the end of the day or at night when I can rest of friggin' senses. No wonder I have this 'something is missing' feeling all day today.

Instagram, don't worry, I will be doing you today.

Maid Side-Kick

I was kind of a little sad when I read the news about this - there will be no live-in Indonesian maids in Malaysia anymore . There are pros and cons to having a live-in maid, as with everything else, but for us, we enjoyed more pros than cons. Back then, when my kids were little, we brought in a family of maids to help with...well, just about everything, and we were like two families merged into one. They ate what we ate, we sleep, they sleep, we shop, they shop, they joke, we laugh, we joke, they laugh...for me, the maid I hired was more like a sister and side-kick to me. For that few years, I was dependent on her to mind-read my schedule and when I need or don't need help. She picked things up quickly and we ended up having lots of moments whereby we were in sync. Today, two of them are on my Facebook and we were gleefully chatting over Facebook Messenger since they've just discovered the wonders of the Internet and Social Media. Since we were more like partners in crim...

Drunk People Cannot Make Comments on Blogs

OK, here's the thing with this image thing....you don't want people to design robots or programs or spiders or cockroaches or whatever to spam blogs and websites. I understand that. In fact, I am all for it. It's annoying to have spambots come in and post one liners like.... Can't get it up? Try this website. Top quality Viagra for low pricing. Value discount if bought inbulk. Or the most common ones would be.... Want a completely paid-for holiday with your family and coming home to a villa beside the sea before taking a spin in your luxury car. Then you have to read this! It's amazing! Within three weeks, you will get $32,000 in your account. Within a month, whether you like it or not, we'll bank in $65,498 into your bank account. Within six months, you're a f*%#@* royalty. I don't like that....and I assuming you don't like that either, right? If you have a popular blog, you get even worse stuff like hate mails, awful comments or people who ...

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked what’s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it is…. If you say ‘ reading ’, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ….) and I also love mystery novels but it’s not the first on the list. If you say ‘ playing the piano ’; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), there’s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. It’s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ‘ writing ’; You’ve got to be kidding me! You mean I don’t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ‘ playing with my kids ’; Yea...
