MY LIFE DIARIES #02

Went to visit the TCM at Sian Chay Medical Institution at Choa Chu Kang. I complained to the doctor about nausea, chapped dry lips and weight gaining. My health is deteriorating as I aged. So if you have any health issues I suggest you come here to visit the TCM. They provide free consultation and subsidized medications!

5 HOUSEHOLD CLEANING PRODUCTS YOU CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT

 

1. Dyson vacuum cleaner 2. Kitchen wiper from Japan Home 3. Bona Tile cleaner from Qoo10.sg 4. Rust Olem Gloss protective enamel from Qoo10.sg 5. Floor wiper from lazada.sg

Hi there!

Today I'd like to share my knowledge on doing housework with you!

Firstly, I clean the floor once a week using vacuum cleaner and wipe the floor using magic clean floor wiper. You will find that floor wiper is a good way to clean the floor! I clean the bathroom walls every month using Bona tile cleaner to get rid of dust and soap residue build-up on the tiles. I wipe the kitchen appliances and table tops using kitchen wipers which is very handy whenever I'm free. I also cover up rusty surfaces in the bathroom using rust-olem spray paint...

I usually segregate my housework into 3 parts and jot them down on the calender:

Housework 1 (HW1) - Using magic clean floor wiper to wipe the floor every month

Housework 2 (HW2) - Wiping the bedroom furnitures every month

Housework 3 (HW3) - Cleaning the bathroom every month

I love doing housework... I find it very therapeutic and satisfying when my house is spic and span! It is also a free activity and workout instead of wasting money going out or shopping! I'd highly reccommend you to stay at home and spend your time doing housework and stay safe!

I hope you find this post is helpful to you! cya!

30 DAYS WRITING CHALLENGE #01

Hi there!

How's the preparation for CNY going??? I'll be kicking off my 30 days writing challenge blog post! Today question is: Write about 5 blessings in your life... I'd say all the questions are interesting but hard for me but I'll try to elaborate as much as possible! So here goes...

1. RECOVERY - I have been suffering from mental illness since 2009. I sunk into depression after I failed to find a job for a few years... I'm glad and proud to say I've made significant progress like doing housework, cooking, baking and finally going back to work... I pushed myself very hard and I'm glad I made it this far... There's less disturbances and more joy. I also obtain my certification from Singapore Anglican Community Service and made a lot of new friends there... I went travelling and get to relax more during my free time. I'll like to encourage others who have mental illness to stay positive and never give up!
2. FAMILY - I'm glad my family is close to me and our bond is stronger now... I have a new cute baby nephew which I'm so thrilled about... They bring me to places for my birthdays and had helped me along the way in my recovery... I'd like to thank them and send a big hug to them especially my mum and sis! I haven't been seeing my relatives much but hopefully I'll get better...
3. FINANCIAL SITUATION - I'd say I'm a person who is debt free and I'm super proud of that! I had never been a spendthrift and I guess my mum does not have to worry so much! I just surrendered my insurance policy and got paid a sum of money which can aid me in my daily expenses for now... I get $20 from my mum daily by helping out in the housework and taking care of my brothers.... I'd like to find a job and earn some pocket money so my mum can have a peace of mind... Just want to emphasize to people how important it is to save! Especially in this economic situation where everyone is clamouring for jobs but only a few job openings...
4. INTERESTS - I'd say my current addiction is watching DVDs! I also like baking, cooking and doing housework... I'd also like to play around with my social media during my free time and I'm currently into listening to radio when I'm free... I also go out to the malls every once in a while...
5. WORK - I'm super crazy about blogging now... I keep having ideas that I'd like to share with you and I can say I love this job! My dream is to study at School of Style in Los Angeles and have at least 10 blog hits per day! I'd like to earn revenue using my blog to advertise for people... And hopefully blogging will bring me to places like New York City ala Andy Sachs from The Devil Wears Prada LOL. 

And that's all for my ranting... Hope to see you another time soon!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2020!!!

Hi there!!!

Just a quick blogpost to wish all my readers a very Happy New Year 2020! 

Have you make your 2020 new year resolutions yet??? For example like some resolutions I've made for the past years ie. doing yoga at home, learning how to use Adobe Flash and Photoshop and to meditate for 15 minutes....

I can't think of any resolutions this year but I swear I'd think harder! Lol~

I hope in 2020, you'd:

• learn to love yourself
• learn you are worth loving
• have more good days than bad
• pet a lot of dogs

I wish everyone would stay healthy and happy for the brand new year!!! Cya!

6 TIPS ON HOW TO BE A SUCCESSFUL BLOGGER~

Hi there! Thanks for dropping by my blog... Today I'm going to teach you how to be a successful blogger based on my own experiences... Or if you're keen to start your own blog and thinking of how to go about doing it? Here are some tips:

1. BE INSPIRED - Every morning when I waked up, I will scroll through my Instagram feed to see what's going on... I will liked the pictures which I find inspiring and nice and I will scroll through the 'Photos You've Liked' section when I'm free... I will randomly liked pictures of celebrities, cosmetics, high-end fashion brands, lingerie, scenery, buildings, clothes, food, beauty products, jewelleries and flowers. I also listen to music on Spotify to get inspired when I'm free... Get into a playlist right away and relaxed! I'll also catch up on my favourite blogs on my Bloglovin' App to get inspired! 
2. READ - I will buy books online to read to spend my free time and make myself more knowledgeable... I mostly read self-help improvement books and some fiction novels during my free time! A book I'll reccommend you to read is 'Leave Your Mark' by Aliza Licht to get motivated! I also buy magazines like Cleo, Simply Her, or Women's Weekly to read once in a while to get inspired... 
3. WORK ZONE - Make a work zone for yourself like buying a study table to put in your study room... You can spend your time in the study room surfing internet while having your coffee, iphone, notebook by your side... Make use of social media platforms to promote and gain readers for your blog! You can jot down notes if you come across anything interesting!
4. CLEAN - Remember to declutter your house once in a while so you have a positive, breathable and clean living space... You will feel more relax and inspired when you have a clean dust-free environment... Throw out or recycle stuff you don't need and replace them with new ones! Stay at home and get zen indoor by cleaning your room once a month!
5. PAMPER YOURSELF - Go for hot oil massages once in a while or get foot spa right in your own home! You can go for manicures and pedicures at a nail parlour and take a long hot showers and sing in the bathroom! It helps! Or get a floral bath in your home to feel more relaxed and inspired! 
6. PLAY - Dress up to attend events organized by sponsors or going for outdoor photoshoot... Take lots of pictures and just do yourself a favour and live your life to the fullest! Go out, have fun and enjoy yourself! It can also be going for coffee or dinner with friends and family or having a drinks or two, do let yourself be inhibited without rules or regulations! 

Enjoy the wines, chandeliers and champagnes along your way to becoming a successful blogger!!! Cest la vie!
