Request for a Cheque Collection

I received a call from my boss that there is a cheque for the company for turf maintenance in a hotel in KL. So, I emailed air pak to collect the cheque hopefully by today and furbish all information including our account number with Air Pak express courier service, the client's address and our company address for the cheque to be delivered. I also included my boss' handphone number in case they need to contact him for the directions to the office. This is all done via sending an email to all the hubs from 1 to 4 including the manager of Air Pak.

My Very Own SOHO

I have my very own SOHO - small office, home office that is equipped with a laptop, internet connectivity, multifunctional printer with copier and scanner, fax machine and a digital camera. These equipment serve me very well as I perform my job in my own soho - right in the comfort of home. I am a heavy user of ink cartridges and paper as I need to print out every single email enquiry from the internet for my boss and colleague since he does not use the computer, other than his smartphone to check emails on-the-go. We work well as a team, prospering the company beyond our wildest dreams and supporting more than 10 workers in this small business.

Working from Home Feels so Good

At times it may be boring, but most of the time, I enjoy working from a home office, small office. The workstation is just next room. Yes, sometimes there is nothing to do and it gets to be boring, but then again without the disturbances and dynamics of the office environment, it is very peaceful and easy peasy. Moreover, I can take power naps in between work just by turning on the air con and snuggling up under my silk comforter. I am also reading broadly to widen my knowledge and to improve on my vocabulary and English which is my main medium of communication, as I come from a family of educators. This is God's blessings that have empowered me to work with an internet connection and find jobs from anywhere in the world.

I Work in SOHO

SOHO is an acronym for small office home office. I have been working in my own SOHO successfully since February 2004 and never look back. It gives me much pleasure and joy to be able to earn an income from the comfort of home and the office is just a walk to the next room. Working in SOHO has been my main source of income with company benefits like SOCSO, EPF, medical insurance, leave, MCs and the like. I am also able to leverage in the free time to blog as a favourite past time. I love what I do now and I am always online on the internet every day at least 3 hours per day. In between work, I can take power naps and sleep under my silk comforter with the air-con turned on. Now, that is what I call a dream job.

Booked Ming Garden Restaurant for Christmas Eve

Last night, I booked a table for 10 persons at Ming Garden Restaurant, Penang Times Square during Christmas Eve on the 24th December 2014. My second sister who is doing her PhD in South Hampton together with her Caucasian boyfriend, also a PhD candidate will be coming to Penang for a week here for holidays, flying in from KL after having spent a few days there. The table for 10 persons cost $1,288 for an 8-course Chinese meal consisting of

1) Lobster with 2 Combinations
2) Double Boiled Superior Soup with Assorted Seafood
3) Roasted Suckling Piglet with Glutinous Rice
4) Steamed Goby Fish with Soya Sauce
5) Braised Goose Web, Sea Cucumber & Mushroom with Vegetables
6) Fried Assorted Rice with Scallop
7) Double Boiled Snow Jelly with Chinese Herbs in Coconut Shell
8) Twin Happiness

The actual number of diners will be exactly 7 persons, but I heard that my sister’s over 6-footer boyfriend is a very good eater, hence he can have double helpings.

Just Came Back from KL

I just came back from KL a few days ago and went with my family to Tan Jetty Thai Food eatery by the seaside on a structure constructed on stilts above the waters. Don't go there too early as it will be low tide and you can see mud everywhere. When it is later at night like 8:00pm, the tide will come in and cover the mud with stinky smell. However, the food there was cheap and recommended by my sister who was there and introduced by her church friend some time back. The trip to KL was fruitful and we clinched a new project in Malaysia. We bought some fruits in Tapah where we stopped for Baskin Robbins ice-cream. I bought a pomelo and 4 mangoes for $26.

Bought Rhythm Avenue USJ 19

Just 2 days ago, I paid $8,700 by cheque as 3% for Rhythm Avenue USJ 19, Kuala Lumpur where City Mall is just downstairs for rental income and self stay. The 616 sq. ft apartment is selling at market price for $315,000.00 and I bargained to $290,000.00 selling price. The owner is only 30 years old and is apparently upgrading to a landed property to build his family. I will rent out to my company for $900 per month and the maintenance charges are around $200 per month, which is on the high end due to the convenience of shopping and dining. There is Papa Rich, AEON Big, computer products stall, Cosway pharmacy, amongst its tenants downstairs. There is also a big Chinese restaurant on the second or third level. The LRT is under construction progress and this will fetch even higher price.

Woke up at 10:30am Today

I had a very good night's sleep and woke up at 10:30am this morning. My spouse was already watching Summer Slam of WWE life which ended at 11:00am. I managed to catch the last most exciting match between John Cena and Brock Lesner, of which the latter won. I am so proud of myself. The early days of hard work have finally come to fruition and I am now enjoying the fruits of my labour. I am beginning to enjoy lying in bed when there is nothing to do. And I have installed 100% sun block curtains in the room, so it is very cosy and dark without all the glare of the afternoon sun. In the meantime, I shall go back to nap again.
