Wah Lau oiiiii..!!! how screwed can this town get leh..?? Stealing an ambulance.. while the ambulance was on call..!!! OMG…!!! you tell me lah.. ! how screwed can these ppl be.. in this small tiny weenie little town..?? Population not more than 8,000 ..!! How unCOOL.. is it..??? to freaking steal the ambulance.. while it was on call.. trying to freaking save someone’s life..! “slap my forehead”.

And how do one steal an ambulance..?? and hide it..??? Surely .. your freaking neighbour.. or your parents.. or your g/f or your husband.. or your dog will see that AMBULANCE.. right..?? afterall .. it’s an ambulance..!

Ya.. i’ll say this is freaking wrong..!!

Filed under: Uncategorized, Random Ranting - Mama BoK @ 6:53 pm

I have been trying to catch up on my blog hopping for the last 2 days.. but i haven’t been very successful… as you can see. I even put answering the comments on my blog on hold … just to try to finish reading my favourites.. but from yesterday.. i either have to attend to customers.. or when i got home cooked for the brat.. and then continued cooking for myself.. when PB got back.. and then washed several rounds of dishes.. and cleaned the bathroom.. and more cooking.. and putting away food for the next day.

And today.. non-stop of customers.. !!! everytime i wanna sit down and start reading.. there comes in one customer .. either asking questions.. buying stuff.. or those that wants to know where PB is.. so they can sell their junk to him. Of course.. dear chloe wasn’t letting up today either. Yesterday she was pretty good.. but today.. she wanted company .. even when watching her movie.. but she did finished her lunch on her own.. so that was a plus.

This evening .. i have keegan babysitting for me.. but PB got 2 house calls to make..! and of course.. he wants to show .. the existing security cameras customers.. the new camera that came in for testing. So how leh .. to blog hop..?? Arrrrghhh..!!! and tomorrow.. gotta go for my x-ray.. my heart.. “bip bop.. bip bop” just thinking about it..!! Wished me luck ya.. !! pray for me..!! go to the temple .. anything that can help lah..!! that the x-ray comes back with nothing but clean bill of health.

PS : Wah Lau.. !! if i got TB like the doctor in Halifax said hor.. i think the whole town .. already kenna infected..!!

The osCommerce Cafe

Filed under: Uncategorized, Amusing/Musing - Mama BoK @ 5:57 pm

My cousin who is a web-designer uses osCommerce Templates to design our current online shopping cart for our store. I had always wonder how she gets so many ideas from her template till she started doing ours .. and let me in on her secret. Looks like osCommerce has the largest template membership site on the internet too. And signing up as a member gives you full access to all their templates.

I was also wondering if i could do the same .. for my little side business and since i don’t know anything about tweaking the template. But they do have information and guide in editing and customizing products.

On top of being able to learn how to customize my work, i want an efficient and cost-effective stylist layout for my website. An extensive range of templates is what i really want, so that i can have a choice of what templates i want and during what seasons. The template that I want has to be fully functional too and of course easy to use and do not need too much work on the logo and images and text. I really wouldn’t mind advanced features and customization .. but i will have to learn my HTML editing applications first.

While others charge a good $150 per design osCommerce charge only $89 for a three month membership, and as a full member .. you get full access to all their templates and unlimited downloads. The template catalogue is kept up to date with outstanding quality templates. And what more better than making money out of an excellent affiliate program with osCommerceCafe which pays a 25% commission for all sales referred.

Once a member, the products available to you is royalty free but remember you do not own the template, unless a special license is bought. Overall, I can see myself using osCommerce Templates without much problem even though i am not an expert in web-design. They also have a forum that you can go to.. discuss issues and to get answers to any problems you might encounter. And of course you can always contact their support for any issues on billing and template questions at anytime of the day, just leave a ticket for them and they will get back to you.

Ang Moh Movies

Filed under: Uncategorized, Amusing/Musing - Mama BoK @ 3:22 pm

This days.. i’ve got no time for “ang moh” movies.. because i’m so glued to my chinese movies.. that PB gets for me. I think .. i am so addicted to my chinese movies.. that i get a wee bit agitated .. if i have nothing to watch.

The funniest thing is.. PB owns a video store right..?? with thousands of movies to choose from.. but if given a choice hor.. i still choose my chinese movies.. over the “ang moh”. To be honest hor.. the “ang moh” movie sometimes quite lame leh.. so hard to continue watching..!

What about you all..?? especially those like me in “ang moh” land.. but very “cina” like me..?? Truly hor.. i also donch wanna speak like the “ang moh” .. what so good about speaking with a “ang moh” slang..?? cannot stand lah.. ppl who try to “bilibala” slang with me. I have been in Canada for so long.. if anyone should speak with an “ang moh” slang.. it should be me lah.. :P

Hoodia Gordonii

Filed under: Uncategorized - Mama BoK @ 1:55 pm

I love to eat .. and if you ever talk to my in-laws.. you will know that i eat at least.. i mean.. AT LEAST.. 4 times a day.. but usually 5 .. otherwise.. i get really upset.. if i don’t eat. My spouse can attest to the fact that i get hungry so often.. and i turn into someone really ugly and i go crazy. And it’s true.. !!

Well .. it was this way till i found more about Hoodia Information. Hoodia really works!! You must be wondering what Hoodia Gordonii is .. at this time ..?? Well .. it is actually an ancient spiny plant that resembles a cactus. It had been used to suppress hunger by Bushmen in Southern Africa during those long hunting expedition. Pharmaceuticals giant then acquired the rights to develop and produced Hoodia Gordonii as a safe weight loss drug.

How does Hoodia work..?? For many centuries, people had been using Hoodia to cure indigestion, heal minor infection and ward off hunger pains. Hoodia in this present day is used to fight against obesity. Although some nutritionist are not in favour of using Hoodia, thus far no ill results have been detected. An active ingredient in Hoodia call the P57, does interesting things to the human body, it turns into simple sugar, very like glucose and is powerful, because it sends a message to the brain that the stomach had enough. Thus you have this feeling of “fullness” that lasts for hours. So people like me, consume less because i don’t feel hungry that often anymore… and thus i start shedding unwanted pounds.

Hoodia comes in pills, tablets, liquid, shake, tea and even in a cup of coffee now. They are priced reasonably, so that it is affordable and a great reputation. For a safe way to loose those excessive weight, try Hoodia.

That time of the Month Again

Filed under: Uncategorized, Business/Career, Random Ranting, This Town - Mama BoK @ 2:23 am

Nah.. ! i’m not talking about my menses or PMS-ing..! it’s that time of the month.. where everyone in this town tries to sell you something.. and would even sell their grandmother’s panties.. if they remotely think they can get a few bucks outta it.

Yup..! no kidding..! First thing this morning.. after opening store.. some fella came in to sell PB a dreamcast..! Yup.. you heard right.. a dreamcast..! PB gave him a few bucks.. and sent him away.

A few minutes later .. 3 guys came in to try sell PB a PS2 machine. Claimed that the machine worked just fine.. just before they brought it down.. they were playing with it and all. And the only thing that didn’t work was the power button… the light wouldn’t come on. The PS2 machine had been stripped opened before.. and they claimed they donch know why or how.

The 3 guys must think that PB and I was born yesterday..?? and that i come from Timbak-tu! putting up a show for us. The bloody PS2 doesn’t work..!! and they were trying to pull a fast one on us..! Such dishonest ppl also got..??

(more…)

I Need To…!!!

Filed under: Uncategorized, Brat Stuff, Amusing/Musing - Mama BoK @ 12:40 am

The brat is very smart.. !! we donch know where she learned it from.. but if she is caught doing something .. she isn’t supposed to do… and you asked her .. why she is doing such.. her answer would be a matter-of-factly.. “I need to..!!”

If she wants something.. and you ask her why.. do you want it..?? her answer would be .. “I need to..!!” I think it is really amusing to us.. because of the way she says it.. “I need TO..! like she can just justify .. whatever .. with .. “I need to” .. and that should be good enough answer for mummy and daddy. Take it or leave it.

Sometimes.. i cannot helped but thank God.. that our child is as smart as any ordinary kid from the hood… and to be really honest.. we didn’t really forced her to learn anything.. or do anything.. or remotely pushed her. Sure we did tell Keegan to read to her.. or do her ABCs.. and sing to her .. and stuff.. but that was as far as it went. As soon as the brat started talking legibly.. i didn’t worry no more.

For all those mothers to be .. or mothers with younger kids.. i just want you to know.. that all kids are different.. do not compare your kid .. with your neighbour’s kid.. or your sister’s kid.. they will do what they want to do.. when they are ready. No need to worry .. like i did with Chloe.. worrying .. that she doesn’t wanna eat.. worry .. she doesn’t wanna talk.. worry.. she doesn’t wanna do this or that.. because Chloe is coming along nicely.. ! sure she can be quite eccentric at times.. but all in all .. she is a healthy kid.. and she reached her milestones.. as and when she decides.. it’s time. I wished i had relaxed more.. and not fret too much.
