Blogging here in Bangladesh
Hi folks, how’s life? How’s your Christmas? Blogging here from Bangladesh, currently we are here in Khulna in one of their top ends hotel. We are going to take a six hour bus later to Dhaka, so while killing our time just messing around inside the business center. It’s a long bus trip but we have no choice every hour counts, we can’t wait for another day just to take the local plane to Dhaka. So approximately we are going to arrive Dhaka early in the morning and then fly to Chittagong.
Just finished our advance dinner too, darn I am bloated and had a take out of my food too, maybe it will served as packed dinner tonight at the bus (lol). Wish me luck that I don’t pee on my pants, hahaha. I have a lot of stories to tell when we got home. Well more pictures too but of course it will be on my travel blog, right?
So as for now I am wishing you a Happy New Year!
Spending Christmas in Bangladesh
Hello everyone, hope you all got a lovely day today. I had a pretty busy day today cleaning some mess here and doing laundry actually it is not finish yet, have to clean more stuff and do another load tomorrow. I’ll be out for blogging for nine(9) days, we had our flight to Malaysia tomorrow evening but we need to leave our place in the afternoon and had a last bus going to the airport. After our flight we need to fly again to Bangladesh and finally visit some historical mosque’s and temples. Oh well I need to pack my things tonight and it is so stressful so leaving all of you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
See you guys next year!
A Glimpse of Lunar Eclipse in Korea
Happy Tuesday everyone. Finally I’m done with my other commitments online and now my time to blog. Have you seen the lunar eclipsed today/tonight? I’ve seen a little of it, I am busy walking in the thread mill (gym) when Pookie bear asked me about it and he pointed the moon half covered with the earth’s shadow. Darn I forgot about it, just too bad I didn’t bring the camera with me, so I am just contented watching the moon while walking in the thread mill which is lucky enough that the gym’s wall is made of glass and the thread mills are facing the right view. Anyway I asked Pookie bear to hurry expecting that the eclipse is still there when we get home, to cut the story short we’re done with the work-out but on my dismay I can’t see the moon. If I can just moved those taller buildings in front of me why not, so I lost hope. While walking home I’ve seen a little of the moon and I am not expecting to see it in front of our apartment but guess what? I did, I’m still bless to see a little of it.
The funny thing though we we arrived home I immediately grab my camera and turn it on, the red light is flashing, low battery. Luckily I have extra batteries, but was not able to take a lot of photo, guess what I am out of memory. My 2G memory is full from previous photos, I did not transfer them to my computer, lazy me.
The Yellow flower in North Korea
Happy Yellow Monday everyone this is a late post, dunno what makes me busy the whole afternoon. Lol, we wake up very early to go to the bank and it is really foggy outside as if our place is in top of the mountain. After it back to sleep, ah yeah what makes me busy this afternoon is updating my online shop, you can pay a visit here. Anyway this is my share of yellow for today, I don’t know what kind of flower is this maybe a relative of sun flower, there’s a lot of this in the plant box is Yanggakdo Hotel, North Korea. Pookie bear and I wander outside before retiring to bed for our first tour around Pyongyang. It is okay to wander outside the hotel as long you are not going to cross the boarder where the guards are, because if you do for sure you are going to sleep in jail.

Weekend Spaghetti
I wake up at seven minutes before three o’clock today in my dismay because I have asked Pookie Bear to wake me up before three o’clock but he never did. I just get awakened when he blew his nose.
Well guess what happened even I tried to post in adgitize forum, it won’t work anymore how can I write 200 words in seven minutes.
Oh well don’t sleep four o’clock in the morning and asked your husband to wake you up before three o’clock because he will wake you up few minutes before it.
Anyway last night I had cooked 500g of spaghetti and just on my three(3) meals the pot is empty. Happy pot isn’t it?
There’s money in the toilet …
I had wake up mid afternoon today, Pookie bear asked me if I am dreaming because I am making a sound as if crying, I try to recall about it. All I know I am dreaming and it looks real and I already forgot what is all about. Does it happened to you too? You forgot your dream after you wake up.
It is not a so busy weekend, I had an extra allowance today. Yahooo! How did I get it? Well Pookie bear plugged the toilet (lol) using too much tissue, so he tried unplugging it but he did not succeed. So I enter the bathroom even he told me not to go inside, the wise me says I need to pee which is true. Anyway he decided to change his clothes he is going to out to buy acid for unplugging the toilet and the dork me keep trying my luck to do it, he asked me if I am going to go with him I said no and keep pushing the plunger. So he said if I can unplugged the toilet he is going to give me an extra allowance, so I said deal.
So while he is out I am trying my best to unplugged it, it is not dirty anyway it is just water maybe the tissues and poppy are stocked in the pipe, after a lot of trying I did it. So when Pookie bear arrived he has two gallons of acid I told him to prepare his money, he wouldn’t believed me at first that I did it but when look at it. Done, he wouldn’t give the extra allowance at first he said he is just kidding but anyway he gave it afterward but its not complete.
As I open my mail I have found out that Godaddy is in Holiday Sale for new domain it only cost $0.99 for one year. So I asked him if I can used his card, he said yes in one condition he don’t owe me more money from the extra allowance and I said Yes. Anyway if you want to purchase your own domain just visit Godaddy and use HOLIDAY99 in check-out.
I have a new domain now for HERZ CORNER.
Herz Corner and a shopping story
As being addicted to beauty products I have come to an idea of making my own online store called Herz Corner , I just started it today so there’s only few products for sale but if you know some items you can tell me what you like. If you order and pay before December 21, 2010 it is 30-40% less on the price of a specific product. I would love to extend it up to December 31, but I can’t make it because I’ll be out of the country. Please take a visit by clicking the banner or the link.
Here’s a shopping story tonight after gym I decided to visit Missha, all I want is the lotion but the dork me decided to get another shower cologne, and then try the other tester. I am opening one product but is darn hard anyway I succeeded but after wards the lid/cap hit the floor so I have to pick it and it creates a sound that one of the sales lady came near me to help and then she found out what I tested is NOT a tester. That means it is brand new, darn it was put in the tester place, anyway to avoid any arguments or what ever I just put the product on my little basket in short I pay for it. Always remember a tester has a tag TESTER don’t just grab and spray. Hehe
I’ll visit you guys tomorrow I run out of time today. Goodnight have a sweet dreams!
Sale Addiction: Itchy Feet – to shop or not?
Around ten o’clock in the evening I have an itchy feet, itchy to go outside even it is -7°C. I am itchy to go to Missha again and buy another box of lotion. I just love the way the box looks like, honestly I don’t know if I am going to use all the colognes, gels, lotions I have bought yesterday because I still have three bottle of Avon perfume here, two are remain untouched. Maybe if I can’t used them I am going to send them to Philippines again just the way I did with the stuffs I bought on sale or else host another giveaway next year.
Anyway I managed to control my itchy feet, as it says you need to count 1 to 10, so I think thrice not just twice if I really need it. Plus if I went out to buy more I am going to be broke for the next two weeks which is I don’t like but the other part of my mind says it is okay because 50% sale only happens once and I can’t buy it anymore in a less price. Well I have controlled myself tonight and I am hoping I can also do it tomorrow especially the shop is just in front of the gym where we are working out, we are on the third floor and every time I looked below I can see the store. Praying that the 50% promotion on their glass window is gone so I will not be tempted to go inside. I need to control this addiction of mine, addiction to SALE.
Anyway I’m just happy to announce that I won a blog make-over at Just Another Pixel Thirty on 30 Blog Contest giveaway. I don’t know if I can bid goodbye to my lovely pink template I wish I won a cash prize that can be added to my paypal funds. Haha, choosy! Anyway I am happy because at least I won another contest and I am not just thank you girl. Looking forward for the new make-over by Sis Grace of dressupyourblogs.com.
Confession, at first I am not used with the word Sis because my younger siblings and I don’t call each other sis or sister just simply our nicknames but everybody kept calling me Sis and it is a shame not to return the favor so right now I am already used with Sis. Okay ba Sis? Teheee, darn now I copy my husband expression too.

Watery Wednesday in National Museum of Korea
Happy Wednesday everyone, here’s my watery photo taken from National Museum of Korea when Emelyn and I visited the place. Isn’t it lovely? It looks like there’s a falling star..
Missha is on sale: My escapades in Seoul
I was very tired yesterday, I arrived here in our apartment at 7:30 in the evening from Seoul. Well at least it is positive, yes we got a Bangladesh visa so I’ll be out of touch next week. Just hoping when I returned I am not going to be lazy to blog, sigh.
Yesterday as I am going to go to the subway platform I have seen a lot of ladies in MISSHA, one of the popular beauty/cosmetic/ store here in Korea. They are up to 50% SALE I have also seen it in our place but I didn’t know it is all over MISSHA. So I also get in and try the testers, when I came out I smelled with different sprays and fragrances, including lotions. I have also one bag of Missha products with me.
After buying the desired products I rushed to the subway platform I don’t want to be late to pick-up our passports eh. Well I was on time actually 25 minutes early for 4:30 PM. I try to open the door but it is closed, so I waited outside and one Korean national and Bangladeshi came, the first guy also try to open the door but he can’t so we waited outside until one guy came out the room and then we came in. After picking up our passport I went to Itaewon instead of taking the subway again I just walked to the place, I almost get lost because I took a different route I went to antique shops just so thankful that Hamilton Hotel is too big not to notice so I find my way to the busy street of Itaewon, I walked around and finally enter a souvenir shop. I found souvenir shirts but when I saw a Korean doll I take it instead. After paying the doll I return to the subway so I can take a bus and go home. After one more transfer I arrived at the subway where I have bought my stuffs, the dork me went inside again. When I pay at the counter the lady looks surprised to see me again, lol. I got the six o’clock bus and I am very lucky that I was on time three minutes before the bus leaves when I bought a ticket. There’s some vacant seats at the back I decided to transfer so I can eat my gimbap rolls. Yes I never eaten yet since I wake-up and left home around one o’clock in the afternoon.
After one hour we arrived on our city, its pretty cold eh. While walking I saw the MISSHA shop just in front of the gym, the dork me came in again and when I came out with one bag of Missha again. That’s why I had two bags. As what I told before I love SALE, and I can’t resist with the temptation of 50% Sale. I saved a lot I only pay $20.26 including tax instead of $37.69.
When I came home, expect the expected. My husband nagged asked at me instead of me nagging at him actually until I wake up he is nagging at me. He asked me what how much did I spend with my trip to Seoul when I returned the change. Seeing what I bought he asked me where I got the money especially I have a Korean doll and etc., well I used my allowance buying the doll. What makes him pissed off of me when he knows I did not eat. He told me I gave you money to eat and not to shop. He asked me to withdraw 50 thousand won ($43.73) and I returned 15,000 won ($13.12) as changed. I used 12 thousand won ($10.49) as fare and the rest which is $20.11 shopping for sale. I think it is just fair because I also used my own money for buying gimbap rolls (hahaha) and pay additional 15 cents to my stuffs.
Anyway this morning afternoon he keeps nagging at me, darn due to tiredness last night I left the egg shells in the sink which he said not to do it. Anyway it is washed so it doesn’t stink, he said it is also pay back time for disturbing him when he is busy in front of his computer because he knows I don’t like to be nagged / scolded when I just wake up. Well that’s life, I have to learn my lesson if I want my allowance coming. Be a lazy blogger but not a lazy wife. Teheeee…
P.S.
I can hear the air siren right now, when I ever heard it, it sounds danger to my ears. I guess it is just a practice because I can’t hear people rushing outside.
