Need Glasses?

Eyeglasses are expensive nowadays as one of my friend told me that she paid RM800 for her new glasses. OMG, I never paid such a huge amount for an eyeglass in my life.

After I read the article from Chicago Tribune, I found an online prescription eyeglasses store for cheaper frame and lens. From their website, I got to know that actually I can have few pairs of glasses with the amount my friend used to pay for her glasses. From rimless to plastic frame and single vision eyeglasses to complete progressive eyeglasses, you name it and they have it. Tons of frames for you to choose from with a super low price started at $8.oo. You must be wondering why they are able to sell their glasses at such low price. Zenni manufactures their own frames and sell directly to the customer. With this, no middleman and advertising fees are impose on the cost.

I need to get a backup pair of eyeglasses for myself and I think Zenni Optical is a wise choice to go for. Maybe I will get few pairs more so that I can have more stylish looks. What a good discovery! I hope you guys are tempted as I do now and let's visit Zenni Optical today for a brand new eyeglasses!

Shockig News

This is a heart breaking news for those who wish to migrate to Australia........ and I'm one of it.

Rudd rolls up migrant welcome mat

Prime Minister Kevin Rudd has flagged a cut in immigration because of the global financial crisis, faltering economic growth and a rise in unemployment.

Mr Rudd said the current immigration rate was an increase on the previous year.

He said that increase was to meet employer demands for more skilled workers, particularly in mining and resource intensive Western Australia and Queensland.

"As with all previous governments, and mine's the same, whenever we set immigration targets we will adjust them according to the economic circumstances of the day," he told the Fairfax Radio Network in Melbourne .

The 2008-09 Migration Program is set at 190,300 places, representing a 19.8 per cent increase on the 2007-08 program. The figure includes 56,500 places for family migrants sponsored by people already in Australia and 133,500 places for those with special skills.

But that's now been criticised as excessively large in a period of economic turmoil.

Mr Rudd said immigration was not one-size-fits-all across the country and the government would take advice on where skilled workers were needed.

Monash University researcher Andrew Markus has estimated that of the 21 million Australians, a quarter were born abroad - twice the proportion of the population in the United States and three times that of Britain.

Britain and New Zealand are still the largest source countries, but almost every country is represented.

Bento #2

Thia is the 2nd bento I did for Kendra for her snack break at school. It's a very light snack for her and hope she loves it as it looks not as attractive as the previous one. Mommy promise will find more idea on the coming bento.

Whole Grain bread + strawberry jam, oranges

Mommy thought of let her bring the Vitagen to school but scare others children will fight after seeing the Vitagen. So mommy decided not to let her bring the Vitagen to school but will let her have it after school.

My First Bento

I think preparing Bento is the trend now and being a Kiasu mom, I have prepared my first Bento for hubby and Kendra today. I got not much Bento accesorries with me and I should thank market place owner to send my items promptly so that I can start my Bento-ing.

I can't wait till 18th October for the grand opening of the 100 yen shop in Ipoh. I hope I can find some useful bento stuffs there.

This is the Bento for hubby.........
Bread + ham + cheese, grapes and sausages

This is what I prepared for Kendra.....
Bread + ham & cheese, grapes

Let's go to school with my Bento.........

p/s: When I drop her to school this morning, the first thing she told her teacher is :"I got Bento today..." hahaha, normally she will greet the teacher when she reached there.

Sorry

Kendra like to apologize to me lately even for some small things... "Sorry mommy, sorry mommy" always the words from her mouth. I didn't mean that I don't like her to apologize when she did a mistake, I just wish that she will know her mistake and don't repeat it again. Not by saying a word of Sorry and forget about her mistake.

Yesterday when we are about to sleep, hubby was playing with Kendra. Suddenly, she beat her daddy because daddy sleep on her pillow. Then hubby pretended crying by the hope Kendra will 'sayang' him but Kendra still don't bother him. Hubby got no way to go but saying sorry to his princess. Guess what is Kendra answer????

Kendra: Sorry no cure!!!!!!!

Hahahaha......... this is my answer to her everytime she apologized to me. Hubby and I laughed non stop after hearing her answer.

So, I would like to exchange my Mamypoko polybags with your huggies Ultra polybags if you wish too. Kindly email me at peimun78@yahoo.com if you would like to exchange with me. Thanksssssss!!!!

My Vaio

After so long I submitted my PO to hubby, finally my order was delivered to me and my wish was granted. Credit should goes to the sales assistant at Sony Center. Because of his "hard sell", hubby agreed to get this laptop for me. According to the sales person, this is the first time Sony give away so many free gift for the Vaio purchase in conjunction with the PC fair.

Initially, I was thinking to get the Compaq which hubby told me that the spec are much more better than what I'm having now. Due to the stylish outlook of this Vaio, I can't resist to get it and ended up hubby start mumbling on me now!!!!

This is what i get for the whole package:

my pink laptop and the free mouse (worth RM179)

the FOC original vaio carrying bag (worth RM179) and carrying case (worth RM279)

Other than above freebies, they also upgrade my ram from 1GB to 2GB and the warranty has been extended for another year. Overall, it's a good deal I think although I'm not the one who pay...heheheh!!!! Thanks dear for getting this cool laptop for me.... muack muack!!! Don't forget about my mp3 player, ok?
