Today is a Mother’s Day so first of all, I would like to wish to all mothers a “Happy Mother’s Day”. To those who are celebrating, treat your mother in a very special way. How do you treat your mother? I reckon there will be a lot of ideas such as a nice dinner, a perfect gift, a special vacation, a big bouquet of flowers, a big ang pow – lots of options!
I’ve never have a chance to celebrate my mother’s day, what a pity! My mother has passed away for more than ten years now, sometimes just would like to know where exactly she is ? Why doesn’t she give me a chance to say “Happy Mother’s Day” to her!
Never thought of writting a blog today but like everybody else I would like to say “Happy Mother’s Day” to my own mother! Thinking of may be I’ve forgotten my mother and a bit vague of impression of my mother now because she is not exist in this world for so long but again I’ve not forgotten her because she is still my “MOTHER”. Since today is a Mother’s Day, all the newspaper mentioned it, all the radio and TV station have special program for Mother’s Day, a lot of bloggers made an appreciation to their mothers, I would like to take this opportunity to wish my mother “HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY” wherever she is! I’m sure my mother will receive my message!
After watching the video, I was depressed for quite sometimes, why are so many people especially children still suffering from hunger! They are not deserve to, I was wondering for how long are they going to eat those food!
Shall we say that we’ve food to eat, shelter to live on, a shoulder to cry on…..are the happiest human beings in the world? Sometimes we better don’t demand so much! Parents not given enough care, love ones don’t give enough attention, moaning about why such people have everything and i’ve nothing!
World hunger survey Philippines rank 5th. Four in 10 Filipinos or 40 percent said they “often or sometimes” lacked food in the past year, according to Gallup International-Voice of the People 2008. Why is worsening hunger in the Philippines? View UPI Asia.com, they have details for that. I got this video from anilnetto.com.
Every year I’m fascinated and excited want to find out: who is the most beautiful women in the world? Who is the best dressed woman? Recently, there was a poll conducted by The Style Network, voted Cheryl Cole as the Best Dressed woman of 2009 and style icon of the year.
These are my personal favourite pictures of Cheryl Cole. She is indeed gorgeous and stylish. I like her hairstyle and the proportions of her figure makes her look so stunning whatever she wears. No wonder she would be able to beat Kate Moss and Victoria Beckham to grab this year title! I reckon she could grab the most sexiest icon of the year as well, what do you think by judging of these few pictures?
Cheryl Cole
There were about 3000 women took part in this poll, the survey asked who is the most stylish icon age range between 25 to 30. I read somewhere that her success is thanks to her shopping habit and she dresses up well all the time. On top of that, she is married to a rich and famous Chelsea football player Ashley Cole which helps her fame as well.
I did some survey in Terengganu, Malaysia for handmade crafts and discovered the riches and heritage of that Peninsular Malay State. Batik is one of the famous worldwide products to be made into clothing, sarong, beachwear, shoes, table covers, bags, purse, accessories and etc. Songket is woven with gold and silver thread which is popular among the royal families and Malay wedding clothing design. It is very expensive item indeed.

If you are searching products for Christmas presents, birthday gifts, valentine gifts, wedding gifts , a special gift for a special love ones, you can look for it at Lolyco.com at Malaysian crafts category which has a variety of choice. You can just give away as it is or just can be a little bit creative for instance, just purchase a handmade box and just put some jewelery or souvenirs as a surprise gift!
Back:Placemat, large box. Front: Large presentation box, pencil cases, songket coaster (cup mat) set, gift box.
All the Malaysian crafts that can be seen in Lolyco are handmade products, made by hardworking women with a lifetime’s experience in a small village town. According to the manager, once they have gone, it is a bit difficult to find such experience workers. So even the workers are national treasures, not just the unique product!
From 27th March 2009 for a limited time, Lolyco will give a free Malaysian craft with every order. Which one? It depends the amount of the order! Actually, we were going to do a promotion later but just can’t wait to give you those wonderful crafts! Hurry, while stock last! Just say you saw this blog article when you place an order.
It’s not as though I’ve got all the time in the world, and this does, at first glance appear to be a complete waste of time. But sometimes time is best wasted, like spending too much on shoes or drinks or a shirt you only wear once, throwing away time makes you feel like you’ve got it to burn!
Institut Esthederm logo (GIF)
Jess wanted some pictures with the Institut Esthederm logo in them, but the only versions I could find online were very small, so resizing them made them look horrible. She had a version on a disk too, courtesy of a trip to Esthecosme, her supplier. It was the old black-on-white version of the logo, and in an EPS (Encapsulated Post Script) file. Even though it was a huge (over 300kB!) file, it still had jagged edges!
I’d recently done a few articles about Inkscape, the drawing program, for isono.my, so I thought I’d test my new-found skills on the Institut Esthederm logo. I’m not a graphic designer, so I may not have gone about it quite right. It was easy enough, with perhaps the only tricky bit the kerning (spacing between characters) of the text. It’s very easy to change the kerning of text in Inkscape, once you know how – it’s not obvious!
Reconstructed Institut Esthederm logo, large version (PNG)
Before you use this logo in any of your own work, please note that it isn’t Institut Esthederm’s logo, it’s Lolyco’s reconstruction of it. It does look like their logo (okay, so the first ‘I’ and the last ‘T’ in the curved INSTITUT at top are not quite rotated as much as the original), but if you really wanted to use Institut Esthederm’s logo in your own documents, we strongly recommend asking Institut Esthederm for a better, official version. I could have done that, but patience is not a virtue I possess.
If you want a resizable (to any size) version that you can use with Inkscape (so you can fix the rotation on the ‘I’ and the ‘T’!), Institut Esthederm logo, SVG format, zipped.
Institut Esthederm from France starter kits for Dry Skin, Oily Skin and Sensitive Skin are now available. The kits are ideal for people who just would like to try Esthederm products. With an advanced technology, Esthederm often upgrade their products with their latest skin care patents. Their products contain 100% active ingredients unlike other products which are only 1 to 10% ingredients. The ingredients slow down the skin-ageing process, so the products are excellent for home based use because the ingredients themselves are able to work on their own.

For beginners to use a new product, it is very important to understand the basic of skin water protection. For instance, a plant that is too dry or doesn’t have enough water, won’t absorb minerals or nutrients. Similar with our skin without enough water, it will become tighter, wrinkles appear, there’ll be a loss of elasticity, black spots appear and etc. Esthederm Cellular Water is the first and only replica of the skin’s water. It can carry cellular water into deeper layers of the skin.
Esthederm products are easy to use. For dry skin, you use Hydra System, for oily skin you use Pure System and for Sensitive skin you use Sensi System. You can mix and match depending on your skin condition. For example acne skin, after it clears up, you can change to Sensi system and then treat as normal skin. Besides this basic skin care, there is an intensive ‘Molecular Care’ range for emergency treatment of serious skin problem such as severe dehydration, severe acne and hyper sensitivity. Use it at night time to get optimum results.
The reason why all the Esthederm starter kit products concern about water level of the skin is that water level is fundamental to the absorption of nutrients. For more details, you can browse www.esthederm.com for more expert opinion and learn more about why it stands out from other cosmetics brand.
In January 2009, Lolyco.com is giving away a free Ang Pow with every order, to mark the Chinese New Year of the Ox. Chinese New Years (CNY) are based on a lunar calendar and the northern solstice, so the festival falls usually in late January or early February. The Chinese animal zodiac consists of twelve animal signs in a cycle. Most of 2008 was the Year of the Rat, CNY in 2009 marks the start of the Year of the Ox.
Ox Year People
People born in an Ox year are said to be patient, tireless and gain prosperity through hard work. Born leaders, they are quiet, systematic thinkers who benefit from a peaceful environment in which to consider their options and make plans. Ox people are truthful and honest, and have many friends.
Ang Pow
Ang Pow, meaning ‘red envelope’, is a gift of money given to mark a special occasion. The red of the envelope is for good luck, while the money inside is usually in certain auspicious amounts. At Chinese New Year, it is traditional for married people to give Ang Pow to their unmarried relatives, and for adults to give Ang Pow to children. The amount of cash in Lolyco.com’s free Angpow won’t make you rich, but like a seed grows into a beautiful flower, maybe it will be the start of a prosperous New Year of the Ox for you.
恭喜發財 Gōngxǐ fācái / Gong hei fat choi / Kung hei fat choi
The traditional greeting for Chinese New Year can be pronounced many different ways, depending on what Chinese dialect is used. Mandarin (official Chinese) is spelt in pinyin (A-Z with pronunciation marks) Gōngxǐ fācái. The other two ways I’ve shown here are similar to Hakka (my ancestors!) and Cantonese (Hong Kong area) pronunciation. In Malaysia, you’ll see all kinds of wonderful spellings around CNY!
I was watching some YouTube videos about Barack Obama’s election success (congratulations, by the way!) and realised I’ve been saying his name completely wrong. I’ve been saying ‘Barack’ like the place that soldiers live in – like ‘barracks’. Maybe it was the time I spent in the UK. If you’re aware of the difference between the UK pronunciation of ‘garage’ and the USA pronunciation of ‘garage’, well, the A sounds in Barack are very similar to the USA pronunciation of ‘garage’.
Listen to the way Oprah Winfrey and this journalist say his name:
If you want to hear their pronunciation separately, here is Oprah:
And here’s the journalist:
I hope that helps! Maybe I should spend more time watching the news on TV instead of reading it online!
