Looking for your soulmate?

Salam My friends,

The entry this time around will sound like an advertisement.  I apologize for this first.

I am helping out to promote this site www.speeddating.com.my.  If you are looking for your other half/soulmate, we know how difficult it is to find one.  We have made mistakes before and to go out and look for a new one that is of a better candidate compare to the one before is like looking for a needle in a haystack.  Speeddating event is supposed to help us, who are ready to go back to the "field" to look for future spouse to find one.  If we just sit at home and watch korean movies like me, and pray to find one, the probability of getting one is really almost zero.  So if you are ready, please try speeddating and you can register at the website www.speeddating.com.my,  The speeddating event organized by this website is only for Muslims though.

"What is speeddating?", you asked?  Speeddating is when a group of single males and females (usually between 10 - 15 singles) come together at an event called speeddating at a pre-arranged site.  At this event, the ladies are seated and the men will sit with each of the ladies for about 5 minutes in a specified rotating (clock-wise or anti-clockwise) manner.  This 5 minutes is the date, or also known as speed dating.  Speeddating is a common event in other parts of the world like America, Britain, China and many many more.  But this event is still new in Malaysia.  I think for busy ladies and guys today, this speeddating is an opportunity to meet other singles at a convenient and comfortable environment.  Because everyone is single at this event, it is less awkward to ask sensitive questions relating to marital status.

So my friends, I do urge you to check out this site www.speeddating.com.my and see if you are ready to join them. Just register as a member first, it is free-of-charge.  Do tell to your families and friends too.

Thank you for your support to the site www.speeddating.com.my.

Have a pleasant evening and a good day for tomorrow and beyond.  Wassalam...

Happy New Year 2016

Assalamualaikum Everyone,

Happy New Year!!! Have you heard or perhaps already felt the impact of the toll hikes everywhere in semenanjung, increase in LRT fares, they say subsidy for electricity and many items will be gone this year too, so our household expenses will increase too... What a way to start a new year huh.

Anyway, so saving has got to be our top priority this year.  Wherever we can save, let's save and curb un-necessary spending but do still enjoy yourself and be happy.  Actually this time around I want to share with you two tips to decrease your electricity bills and avoid your electricity connection to be cut-off because you forgot to pay it.

First tip: Every time you leave home to go to work, no one is at home, right?  So you should turn off all the switches that is connected to your tv, radio, astro, unify or other internet broadband power supply, washing machine, computer, etc.  Please do not switch off important electrical items like your refrigerator or all your food items in your fridge will turn bad.  I did this consistently for the past 1 year plus and it decreases my electricity bill by around RM20 per month.  Before I used to pay around RM60 per month, now I only pay RM40 per month.  You saved around 50 cents per day which when accumulated over a 30 days, totals up to about RM20 savings per month.  So in a year, you saved about RM240. So how do I do this? You know when you are all set and ready to go out that door to head for office right, just put down everything on the floor, then run around the house for 1 min, to switch off all the electrical items that will not be used while you are away.  No worries if you have missed one or two electrical items on, I missed them too.  To err is only human...  Anyway, that was easy breezy kan... please do try this.  I hope you can minimize your electricity bill too

Second tip: Always pay your electricity bill every month.  Even if TNB forgot to send it to you, just pay it anyway.  I know my monthly bill for electricity is about RM40 - RM50 per month so I pay this amount every month whether I got the bill or not.  I pay my bills over maybank2u and save it as my recurring expenses that I need to pay every month.  Usually when I do see the bill, I have paid in excess.  If you do this, TNB will never cut your electricity for the reason of you not settling it timely, in sya Allah.

These two tips don't come from me actually.  Two different friend of mine gave me these tips while we are talking so I just adopt them because I think they are useful.  So I would like to thank both my wise friends for the good advice.

So, let's have a wonderful, fruitful, prosperous, healthy and safe 2016! Be happy always, because all of us deserve it.

Till next time.  Wassalamualaikum....
