It’s Free, It’s Fun, It’s Full of Surprises
I recently joined Postcrossing to exchange postcards from around the world. It’s a great thing postcards from Malaysia to anywhere in the world is priced at a standard RM0.50. That’s really cheap compared to many other countries. Well, so far I’ve sent out 3 postcards, to Finland, Czech Republic, and USA, I guess my cards are having a good time travelling to where I’ve never been myself! Anyways, this made me remember Bookcrossing.com. I joined bookcrossing back in 2004. At that time, I received a free book to start off, but I never really register or release any books. Maybe because I really didn’t have many books around. Well, today…

Free glamorous studio portrait
Ok there’s no such thing as ‘free’ studio photography, or getting into a studio for a portrait for free, but you certainly can create your own at home.

Even when I first came to uni, when emails already exist, me and my sisters, and even my dad, we used to send each other letters. In fact, until today, my dad wish I would still send him letters, but being caught in the frenzy of a speedy lifestyle, it has become a hard thing to do. Recently, I joined…

Male, Female, Doubt?
I was registering a new company name after following the steps from here today at the Malaysia Government Website. Yes now you can actually register your business name and sole proprietorship online instead of spending RM150 on a runner or travelling to the Mall yourself. Most busy people won’t have time to do that, so I’m really glad the government realised that. However, it does surprise me that our Malaysian government, or whoever built this website, categorises Malaysian citizens into 3 genders…Male, Female or Doubt. Is that category for those who medically underwent sex change surgeries? Or are there so many citizens in much doubt of their gender? Anyways, if…
