My Dellie..

Saturday, February 21st, 2009

I wake up to find that my computer memory is running low and it prompted me to restart my pc. Checking the memory through Performance at Task Manager, I could see that there is at least half memory available. Even my download has been suspended due to low memory. And the funny thing is my Norton decided not to be able to enable even after I tried a couple of times. Stay cool, Dellie. I hope it wouldn’t be in my to-buy-list, after the bed frames which I am still contemplating to buy. 

New Laptop

Wednesday, February 18th, 2009

KTong came over to our house the other night with his new Dell laptop, after planning to buy for months. It was quite beautiful, white exterior with black shining interior. But the specification isn’t as good but then for home usage, it is sufficient. For me, I’ll opt for a small netbooks if I get another lappie next. High mobility with smaller price for those always on the go.

Shopping~

Friday, February 13th, 2009

Now that I am back to work at the city centre again, I frequent pass by the shopping malls during lunch hour and after work hour. I must say it is hard to resist the temptation to visit those boutiques when they are having sales!

What’s more, lately my friend introduced me to a great online boutique, the Roman Originals. They have many different types of tailor tops and pants, both formal and casual clothing. There are also a wide range of dresses, suits and coats which is trendy and fashionable.

The price is pretty affordable for the high quality garments. There are simply so many fabulous designs and I am really spoilt with choices.

And I couldn’t resist their final clearance sales right now, with many items under £7! What a great bargain! I could also get a free trouser with every purchase of a jacket!
With the free delivery for purchase over £75, it is really a worth buy. Not to forget a 20% off instore voucher for your next purchase. I

I am hoping to win the £250 worth of wardrobe from them as well. Isn’t it a fabulous deal not to be missed? For more information and pretty dresses, do hop over to the boutique now.

Gamble During CNY~

Monday, February 9th, 2009

Growing up, I wasn’t used to gamble during CNY although I know many Chinese do that as part of the tradition. Maybe it was not my family culture and even my friends from hometown hardly do that. But this year, I spent a lot of time in KL and I suppose, it is the year where I watched gambling take place in most of the house visiting!

I even dreamt of gambling yesterday night after a gambling session in a friend’s house. Although it is fun, it could be quite addictive. It is certainly not a revenue-generator as some of my friends thought so. A conversion rate optimization might earn you more revenue than you expected!

Cerebral Palsy

Monday, February 9th, 2009

It is quite a shocking statistic that about 2.45 out of 1000 live babies in six countries might have cerebral palsy that can cause physical disability in human development. I think the number is a little alarming and not many people do know about the disorder.

It might be caused by medical malpractise and I would say it would be a grief case for the family and the child’s future. The child and family should be protected and properly compensated should it happened.

Valentine’s..

Monday, February 9th, 2009

Valentine’s is around the corner again. How fast time flies! I still remember vividly last year’s Valentine and now we are at it again.

For those who are lost on what to buy for their loved ones, a great gift idea is talking watches! Well, at least I think it is quite a creative and unique gift. At least I would like to have one for myself. Anyway, today is the Chinese Valentine’s day, the 15th day of CNY!  

So, Happy Chap Goh Mei, everyone!

RAM, anyone?

Monday, February 9th, 2009

When I bought my laptop, it came with 1GB of RAM, two 512MB. But I find that the laptop is quite slow when it is loading Vista. After a year of using it, I decided that I absolutely need to upgrade my system memory by getting a 2GB.  


With only 2 slots, I am only able to put the 2GB and 512MB RAM into my laptop, which is a total of 2.5GB RAM!

Now I have an extra unused 512MB RAM to spare. Anyone who likes to have it? 

Missing Again..

Monday, February 9th, 2009

I remembered that KW gave me a couple of sd card after he bought a new camera and he no longer needs them. But the thing is I couldn’t remember where I put them. I only have one right now, the one in my digital camera. But the rest of them are no where to be seen!

I think I should be more systematic with storing my stuff as I always seem unable to find what I am looking for. It’s so frustrating!!

CNY over..

Monday, February 9th, 2009

Today is the last day of Chinese New Year, the fifteenth day. As I wasn’t looking forward it at the first place, now I think I might be missing the festival.
 
The festival means plenty of good food, red packets for the singles and excuse for visiting and of course, eating! I guess it is time to look for the best diet pills as many people would have put on weight during this occasion. The binging should stop as well and it is back to responsible body weight. 

And it also means back to work again tomorrow. Somehow I am quite looking forward to it.

What causes Skin Aging?

Sunday, February 8th, 2009

One of the quickest to spot sign of aging is your skin. There will be fine lines and not as firm as it used to be. Thus it is important to take care of your skin so it doesn’t age before its’ time.

Few factors that could speed up your aging skin are :


The sun : The uv rays could damage our skin and accelerates aging! Some of the changes due to sun exposure includes freckles, age spots, rough skins and wrinkles! It is called ‘photoaging” and thus we should limit our exposure and protect our skin from the sun!Facial

Expression: believe it or not, how you mimic your face could lead to more wrinkles! Repetitive facial movements could cause to fine lines and wrinkles.

Gravity
: I think we can’t help much of this.
Other factors including Sleeping Position and smoking and balanced diet! So live a healthier lifestyle, at least for you skin!
