Plastic triangles for "No Plastic Bag Day"

I'm republishing this old post for the benefit of fellow Malaysians who still haven't gotten used to the idea of the "No Plastic Bag Day" campaign. Keep a couple of these neat triangles in your wallet/handbag and save yourself 20 sen per bag if you decide to shop on impulse and have forgotten to BYOB (bring your own bag).
For the uninitiated, the Selangor government had on Dec 20 declared its plans to make every Saturday a plastic bag-free day effective Jan 1.

Hehe, I love the frustrated look on Hubby's and the other shoppers' faces each time they're caught off guard at the check-out counter while I smugly fish out these little thingies from my handbag - one of the few proud moments in my life!

Here's a neat trick for storing them.

                                         

You'll be amazed how little space these triangles take up.

It's no wonder the world has fallen in love with these animals.

Mum? Can you come and get me down now?

I'm not coming out. You'll have to come in and get me.

Kung Fu Panda...bring it on!

On the count of three.... lift!

Does this log make my butt look fat?

Betcha can't see me.....

Oops! Slight miscalculation.

You go. I'll just stay here and rest my head a little bit.

It wasn't me! I didn't steal this bamboo shoot!
It was just sitting here, I swear it!

I'll give you 2 seconds to get off me or I'm calling Mom.

Pardon me but do you have a napkin?

Darn paparazzi! Could we have a little privacy please?

Dear Martha Stewart:
I have this brown stain on my nice, white, fluffy butt...

Shhhh! I'm reviewing...

I cannot believe that I'm stuck in this tree again.
What is the matter with me?

I'm sure there's a way out somewhere.
I saw an ant go this way yesterday.

Forgive me Father, for I have sinned...

Pandas looking for lost earrings....

Absolutely nothing accomplished.
The perfect day for a panda...

Paid Surveys

Women, we want to hear what you have to say about fashion! Click Here

Some of you may have noticed I have a second blog - actually, it was my first. I started Survey Scroll several months before OF MICE AND raMEN. The blog is kinda static with only 8 posts, intended to help those who would like to earn money from home participating in paid surveys.

Have I mentioned before that I'm an active survey taker? Now after more than a year's experience and with money in my pocket, I'm considered a 'pro' survey-taker which is why I'm posting this.

Nope, you won't get rich but seriously, who else will reward you for sitting on your butt just clicking on buttons! Besides, you can fill up those forms while visiting blogs, watching TV, dropping EC etc.

Good Luck!

Celebrities And Their Siblings

Q. What's worse than being driven crazy by an unfamiliar song on repeat that's stuck in your head all day?
A. A familiar face you can't put your finger on that's keeping you awake all night!

You swear you know that face and voice in that movie, yet everyone tells you the actor/actress you think you recognized is not the one. You've missed the part where the cast is introduced and the part where the credits roll is not aired. You can't do what you do best - google for info 'cos your ISP is down. You toss and turn in bed all night until finally, you get an internet connection and find the identity of the face that tormented you - the sibling of the actor/actress you thought you recognized .
Last night, the face I couldn't shake off was Luke Wilson, brother of Owen Wilson!!

Tell me I'm not unhinged. You've experienced this - haven't you?!!!
