Girls Day Out

Yesterday, my friends and I finally could meet each other and got some coffees while we had some chats. Not important things that we talked about but just to have some fun, smile and laugh. We really happy on our Saturday night. Meanwhile, the hubbies also came with us but they were the one watching the kids... Hmmmm.... that was really great. We said to each other that we should do something like this again so often.

Here is a picture from yesterday afternoon.

My Camera is Fixed

I am so happy that I can finally use my digital camera. Two days ago, I brought it to the service center. This time, I did not use the authorized service center because they asked very high costs to repair my digital camera. I asked my friend who is working as a photographer. And he mentioned a place where I can bring my digital camera to get it repaired. And it's fixed now. They said they fixed the power supply of the digital camera and it's working again now.

I am so lucky. Why? I asked the repairmen guy about the price of the same digital camera that I have right now. He said it's still quite expensive. It will cost us around $ 400 if we want to buy a new one with the same type. Thanks to my hubby that gave this camera to me.

Oh No... My Digicam

What is going on with my digital camera? Suddenly it does not have power anymore. Even after I change the batteries with the new one, my camera did not turn on at all. I am very sad because of this. I need to bring it to the service center. But I just check the place where I need to go, and it is a bit far from the area where I live. So I guess, I need to go there alone. I don't want to bring my kids because it will be traffic on my way to the service center. I hope I can manage it by tomorrow. Oh...No, I really need my digital camera for my business.

Professional Golfer

My dad always think that he want to play golf just like the professional golfer. That's why he keep on practicing play golf with his friends until now. I don't believe that he can folow the real golf tournament but it's good to know that he still have his ambition to play a better golf than he can do at this time.

In Germany, near the place where I lived before, I often see professional golf school or academy for people that like to learn how to play golf. You can search on http://www.golfakademie.com to see the programs that they offers. Other things that I often saw is Golfshop. You can find golf stuffs that you need from that store.

In that country, you have to find Golf Platzreife if you want to play golf. It's how they called in their own language. So, if you are looking for a place to play golf there. Or maybe if you are searching on the Internet, you'd better type it in their language since they don't often write the ads in English.

I still think that one day I will also play golf in Europe. If last time I did not get a chance to do that because of some reasons, It hope when I come back to Europe I can do it soon. The weather and the location of the golf field are much more interesting and the open air is healthier compare to the air that we have in the country where we live now.

I Really Miss My Belgium's House

I am seriously missing the small Belgium apartment where we live before. But I think it;s not the house that I miss but it simply the privacy had when we lived with the four of us. Now we are living in my parent's house but we did not have the privacy like what we had in our small house. That's why I miss it so badly.

I know that we have a better living now but it does not mean that I feel more happy about it. I just don't know what I should do to solve this or to get rid of this feeling...

Playing Golf

Playing golf is not as simple as you think. You really need to know the basic things about playing golf. After you know that, you also need to keep practicing. The more often you practice your golf skill, the more chance you can play better.

Regarding practicing, of course you have many ways on practicing your golf's skill. You can do potty putter to practice your golf skill. Sounds so funny but it can help you practicing. So beside doing your daily or weekly course, it would be better if you do other thing to practice. I guess this is what men will do. They can do what they like to do in the same time. I could not imagine that women would like to try it, but it is also possible if they want.

Practice to play golf every day will be great. It does not mean that you want to be a professional golfer if you practice golf every day. But it will definitely help you to increase your level in playing golf.

Some professional golfs probably did practicing since they were so young. And they use and do everything they can to increase their levels in playing golf.

She Doesn't Want To Finish Her Homework

Few weeks ago, I was so happy that my daughter really like to do her homework. She never had problem with finishing 3 homework in one time. But the last few days, I did not see her doing like that anymore. She was a bit lazy to finish her homework. When I asked her about it, she always had an excuse.

I have no idea why she change a lot. Today, I spoke with her teacher and her teacher said that I should not push her too much. Maybe I need to slow down a little bit about it. And teacher could understand about the situation. But of course, I would like to know what is the real reason that change my daughter.

A Jeep Car

I still think that a jeep car would be the best vehicle to have at this moment. When it's raining so hard, most places here will get flooded, including the big streets that we often use.

If we have a jeep car, we will not have a problem with the rainy season anymore. The small car will have bigger possibility to get stuck on those flooded areas. But with the jeep, I don't think we have to worry about this kind of problem. Jeep is a high car and even we have to drive through those streets, I am sure the car will still stay higher than the water on the streets.

Personally, I like to have a jeep car. Especially when we can put some modification with special jeep accessories for our jeep car. And nowadays, we can also order those jeep accessories online. We just need to browse the accessories that we want for our jeep car, then do the buying transaction online. The company that sell that product will ship the item that we order direct to our address.

Cooking Lesson

My daughter got a cooking lesson. But this time, she did not get it from me. She got it from her daddy. Yeah... my husband is a good cooker. Serious, I am not lying! When he cooked, we always had a nice meal dinner. Pity that he did not cook so often anymore. But this time, he tried to teach the kids how to cook some European snacks. So far, my daughter enjoyed it, she even wanted to put the recipes in her own blog. Yeah.. a blog from five year old girl...Maybe she just copied it from me since I am writing my blogs everyday. And most of the time, she saw me writing in front of the notebook.

Anyway.... I was so happy to see how she learn about cooking. This weekend, they plan to cook again. I don't know what will be the recipes, they said it's a secret, I can only try it when it's ready on the table. :)

Buying A New House

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Coldwell Banker. All opinions are 100% mine.

Are you ready to buy a new house for you and your family? If you think this is the right time to get a new house, you probably should know more information about other things that related to the process of buying a new house.
There are plenty information that you can read over the Internet if you plan to buy a new house soon.
Especially regarding the tax credit that you will receive if this will be your first time to buy a house. For the first time buyer, you probably can get up to $ 8.000 tax credit. They will really check if you never own a house in the past in order to get this 2010 Homebuyer Tax Credits.

Basically, some people said that a great deal in real estate is now better. This is starting from the beginning of 2010.
If you are a single, your income limit should be at least $125.000 and $ 225.000 for couples.

I just found an interesting video from learning center about buying a house, you can see it here :


I hope you get more information after seeing this video. But if you need more information, you can also search on the website where I found those information.

Traditional And Herbal Medicine

Does any body know some kind of herbal or traditional medicine for the kids that have cough problem. I have been trying to give the medicine that we got from doctor's prescription for my children but it seems that there is no big progress on my kids. They are now having cold and cough and it's really a problem now. It's not because I don't want to take care of the kids, but it's simply because I feel so pity to the kids. They could not sleep well in the night and in the day, they have problem with eating as well.

If there is herbal medicine that I can give to my children to solve this problem, I would like to do it. I think I prefer to give herbal medicine for my kids better than the one that I give to my children at this time.

His Favorite Car

Yesterday, we brought the kids to walk around in a big shopping mall. When we just entered the shopping mall, my hubby saw a nice red car parked inside one of the store in the corner of the building. So he told my son that he saw his favorite car and brought him next to that car. My son was so happy and smiled all the time. I took a picture of my children when they were standing next to the car. My son wanted to go inside the car but of course they will not allow us to do that since it's an expensive car.

Look the happy smile of my kids :

They Are Jealous

My mother is busy with the other grandchildren now. My brother brought his son here because he and his wife need to work every day. Since there is no baby sitter, my mom will be the one who baby sit the baby from them. That's why my kids are jealous. I tried to explain to them that it's fine if grandma busy with this small little baby, but their brains are not easy to digest yet. But I think sooner or later, my kids will get use to that. They are going to school as well so they will not spend their days with grandma all the time.

3 BT : Tuesday, January 12th 2010

1. Got payment for my item that I sold last week. So happy because I get spirit and support to continue my new business.

2. Received a sweet short message service from my sweet hubby.

3. Taking pictures of the children when they played together. The happiest moment in my life is when I can see the big smile on my children face.

Next Month Holiday

We plan to have a nice holiday next month. My mom-in-law will visit us from Europe, so we plan to spend about two weeks with them on a holiday. My children can not wait for seeing their grandma. They are already starting to count the days.

I already start to collect some information about interesting places to visit next month. I try to find Budget Travel Blog that can give information about cheap holiday that we can take next month. It should not be too expensive but the holiday should be fun as well.

I like to read blogs, some travel blogs have good information for making holiday plan. We can try to combine all those information and choose the best option for our next month holiday.

If every body cares about their own stuffs here...

I am cleaning the house of my parents... guess what? There are so many useless stuffs lying around in the house. I get crazy a little bit about those stuffs. We are living together in this big house. But there are few of us that do care about the cleanness of the house. I don't know what is the reason but it's really bothering my mind now. I thought we should realize our self that we take a good care of our stuffs. And since we are living together, we should make this house look better and clean, not like this time.

I just found many broken stuffs, books, and many more things that just put in the corner of the house. And those stuffs had been lying there for years. For example, if there is the broken guitar from my young brother, he will just put it there and let it there until somebody like me or my mother drop by there and clean up all those stuffs and throw all those stuffs away or give it to somebody else.

You can not imagine how big was the pile of the junks from this house. Today, I just did clean a little part of the house, there are many more stuffs to throw. I just want this house look nicer and clean. But I think if it's only coming from one person or at least from my mom as well, my idea will not push through.

On top of that, every body in this house think that there is a helper that can do the cleaning. This house is too big for one helper plus every body should take care and clean their own stuffs. That's what should happen in this house.

The Motivation Of Losing Weight

I know that I should have the right motivation if I want to start losing weight. I gained too much already and now it's time to throw out those unhealthy fat inside my body. But so far, I did not really have big success to achieve the goal that I want.

I think I should understand more about the process itself. Some people said that it will help you a bit if you know How To Start Your Fat Loss Journey. You will be able to give the right guidance to yourself and start the right step to lose your weight.

I know that the motivation should come from me as well. If I will have the right motivation of losing weight, I am sure I will get the result that I want. It happened to me few years ago and I was so proud that I could reach my ideal weight. Pity that I gained a lot again during my pregnancies. But than I should be able to manage myself now to achieve the ideal weight for me.

It's a bit difficult for me now. I did not really put full effort for this. So I guess I should not blame anybody for this. If I can manage myself and start to do the serious effort to lose my weight, I believe I can lose some of the fat inside my body slowly.

I should stop complaining now. I have other things to do tonight. I want to learn from my husband about transferring files and setting from another computer under Window 7.

So Skinny

I know that my blog posts are mostly about the kids now. I think it's because I am a full time mom. So I spent most of my time to be with the kids. If I ever have a chance to do something else, it probably still near my children. I just hope that my readers will not get bored with those stories about my children.

Last weekend, we went to swim again with the kids. I was so shock when I saw my son's body. He is so skinny especially when she wore his swimming gear. OMG, what should I do to make him a bit chubby and fat? Now I am trying to give him Chinese herbal. I hope this can give better result than the doctor.
Please...!!

What's Going On With Us?

My daughter and I have a little fever since yesterday night. I believe than we did not get the same virus inside our bodies but we both have quite a bad day with this fever. I really don't understand why my daughter got sick so easy here. Her immune system is not good enough to fight the virus that fly around us. I gave her healthy food every day and also extra vitamins that can make her body stronger. But she still get sick. If I count during December and early January, she already got more than three times fever in a row. I get crazy with this situation. I have to do something to avoid this situation in the future.

Another City Trip

On the last few days before my daughter go back to school again, my mother want to bring us for another city trip. She have more than two weeks holiday, but we did not really bring them for special holiday trip. It's simply too busy in this town if we want to go to the entertainment park for the children or other entertainment center. People from other cities in the country normally go there during the school holiday. And since most of the people are going back to their routine activities today, we think that it's the best time to bring our kids to those entertainment places.

Okey guys, time to prepare now, I will take some pictures there and show you on my blog as soon as I can. See you later!
