Even my uncle has special ordered some tapai from Keningau, all 5 jars of ‘em! He even said that he’ll make sure everyone will get drunk. Oh my! Let’s not even mention the amount of beers and liquors my cousins will bring. The thought of it makes me wanna…. pass out! :-P

So what’s the best gift to give a cousin on his wedding day? Angpow is surely a must, but giving a gift is something different. At least they’ll have something to hold on to in the future and know that it’s from ME! He he he. Boy, if I have all the money, I’d give them some jewelry deals as their wedding gifts. Right now, the only thing I can think of is.. a baby stroller. LOL

So my uncle suggested that they should start having their regular jamming session again every weekend at his friend’s place – who happens to have a mini studio in his backyard. According to my partner, this friend of his has a complete set of music instrument: drum set, keyboard, guitar.. maybe even Boss brand of items! And I think it’s really cool that he has all that. So I am really looking forward for their next jamming session at our of our local pub. It’s always fun being around my uncle. He’s so cool, despite his age. LOL

Coincidentally, he’s arriving on the same date when my mother celebrates her birthday! *gasp*

I’ve already planned to take my mother out for something special, dinner at a nice place maybe then followed by jalan-jalan makan angin after. Now that my friend’s coming over on the same day (and he’ll only be here for a day!) looks like I would have to slip him into the plan as well. Adui. Where am I gonna take him? Join us for dinner? Ha ha ha. Or maybe I just get him a puzzle ring and make him play with it in his hotel room all night.

But that would be so mean.

Ah well.. I’ll come up with something..

Before they started this new business, my brother has been running this creative design company which includes graphic design, web design, video editing and music production. Speaking of music production, he has made quite a number of music/song arrangement for friends (hey, who else are we gonna start with in a new business but.. friends!) ..all from the comfort of his own home! Business is going real good and pretty soon, he’ll be using those Avid Technology!

As for his new business, we are currently working on our T-Shirt design and printing. :-D My brother just got the equipment for the T-Shirt printing and it costs quite expensive… but we believe that in time, the business is gonna grow like his music production. :-D

Got me some polka dot photo frame, some pastel-colored masking sticker and.. oh, that was all. I wanted to buy the polka dot mug, but I have like tons of mugs already. Buying that would be a waste.. or maybe not. It goes well with my polka dot table! Maybe after my partner got his pay, I will make him buy me one. After all, it’s only RM5. It’s not like I’m asking him to get our mailbox some new mailbox plaques. *hee*

By the way, I’m loving my new polka dot mini studio table. It’s so cute and pretty! ;-)

SO what’s new with you? Nothing new on my side, except for the fact that my puppy loves sleeping in my bedroom despite being asked not to. I guess since he’s very furry, he loves being in the cold place like my room. He just loves the air-conditioned room. My partner and I was sleeping in a very cold room last night because we turned the AC on despite the cold rain.. so you can imagine how cold it was! We were practically hiding under the blanket for the whole night – sometimes I wish we have electric blanket as well. He he.

I guess the puppy will be the happiest puppy if we have snow!

Along the way, I got distracted at the sigh of Stage makeup store. Of course, my compact powder is about to be at the end of it’s service..so a brand new compact powder is needed. So I went inside, talked to the store assistant, tried a few compact powder and end up buying the 2 way foundation. He he.

What I can say about their makeup collection is.. should be ok? Because I didn’t get to try them yet. I was in a hurry as my brother and friends were waiting for me. But I’ll try out the 2 way foundation tonight. I will let you know my experience with it then. If it’s ok, then maybe you can go and buy their makeup products to try at home. However, in the meantime, I’d suggest that you save some $$ for rv financing instead (if you’re into RVs) because makeup won’t cost you a bomb – you can get them anytime. :-P

Of course, the other half couldn’t agree more. But we HAD to add something that could last, he said. OK, then maybe the usual gift that everybody gets on their wedding day – a photo album. LOL! Oh well.. I guess a photo album could do, since we couldn’t afford a brand new lens for him (he’s a photography enthusiast)

It worked for me, maybe it will work for others, I thought. And then I logged on to Facebook this morning, only to find a message from that person that soap made her skin wrinkle! What a surprise! Why it worked for me and not for others is beyond me. Maybe not everyone is suitable with the content of the soap? Or maybe it is not for older age? Ah well, maybe I’ll worry about it later as I grow old. And perhaps getting a seniors term life insurance online is also another thing to worry about in the future…

I’d rather get myself a promise ring etiquette than getting those expensive things.

But not until lately that I have been looking at iPad and Galaxy Tab advertisements – because I am suddenly SO interested to get one! >___< Should I get one or not? I don’t really need them, but I really want to have one! iPad or Galaxy??? My fiance suggests iPad… but I kinda like the size of the Tab.

Which one…..?
