Don’t let anyone hold any part of your life hostage. Your life is YOUR destiny and no one has the power to judge.
Hi! I am Pretty Pauline. I am the guest blogger for the day. 
My five children are the air to me! I love God and the hubs, who is the calm to my crazy. In a little less than a year I will be forty, and I have over 100 pounds to lose. Giving up my yummies already has me a bit down-in-the-mouth! Still, I am determined to try new things, laugh a lot, and find fun in the hard work of this journey. Your comments would really lift me up me along the way!

Hello everybody!! How have you been? I should have updated my blog ages ago.
(more…)
I dedicate this song, Blowing in the Wind to Fufu Fufu is my friend and we keep in constant contact through msn. I am a little apprehensive of him travelling all alone as a backpacker through unfamiliar terrain but that is the difference between Fufu and me. He has this tremendous drive, sound common sense and courage. Wuching and Fufu are the only two who call me brader online

Most of us I suppose would love to be in his position. I too would love to trade places with him if I could. If I were a little younger, if I had less commitments, if I had more courage, if i had more ambition…… a million ifs

Fufu has been to so many places I have lost count. Fufu and his camera have been through thick and thin as he experiences adventures most of us would only dream of. At every destination there would be no shortage of people to keep him company. He takes pics of the most mundane things but when he posts it on his blog I would think to myself, ” Why didn’t I take that shot?”

To Fufu, we wish you all the best. Fufu will be leaving for Inner Mongolia, Silk Road, Tibet, Shenzhen, Hongkong and Macau from 16th of June, 2009. May you have good food on your table and a comfortable bed to sleep on every single day of your holiday. Take care, Fufu. God bless.
A word from Fufu… Fufu clowning around
Life has been good today. I got my car back today. After days riding my ancient bike and being exposed to the sun and the rain, my rusty old wreck seems like a Mercedez. First thing I did was to bring Mrs BB and Benghui shopping.
Alamak just bought some cheap rice, cooking oil and very basic groceries the bill almost made me pengsan ( faint ). Money seems to be getting smaller nowadays even though the price of petrol has gone down to RM2.00/ liter. The price of goods remain the same if not higher. I must make it a point to tighten my belt even tighter. Hopefully this will help with my diet too.
For your information I bought Benghui some ice-cream, potato chips, bak chang ( meat dumplings ) tonight. He deserves it for being such a good boy this week. I even devised a program where I allocated chores for him daily. This is to teach him the value of money. He is paid an allowance for his daily chores. Previously he was paid only enough to buy food at the school canteen. He is not paid anything when it is not a school day.
The scheme didn’t work. He took my money and gave it to mummy because ‘ mummy loves him and take good care of him.” I hope he thinks like that when he has a girlfriend and is working.
I also had the pleasure of meeting Mich tonight online. Oooh, how young I felt chatting with such a lovely young lady. This uncle Ah Beng is safe lah because i am so far from Kuala Lumpur. What a joy . Mrs BB laughed and asked me if I was suffering from mid-life crisis and contemplating a replacement hahahhahaah.
Go and say hi to Mich. I offered to adopt her but she saw through my ruse. She knew she would soon be able to earn an inome and I had my eyes on that hahahahaahahah.
You guys don’t play play. Michelle is one heck of a talented lady. In this video she is conducting a choir
I was once told I had no sense of romance or appreciation of music. On Tuesday at a karaoke session, I was singing or trying to anyway when I realized in that room empty of patrons except for my own handful of friends, I was the worst crooner. But that doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy a good piece. But I don’t put on a false show of modesty which is prevalent in Asian culture. People always say, ” I cannot sing, I am not good enough etc. ” As for me, I just cannot sing well enough to do so in a public place hahahahaah.”
The only chance I get to slow down and hear music is when I am driving, captive in the car or in some eating or entertainment establishment some where. My time is always occupied. For example today, I have an appointment at 9.00, 10.00, 13.00, 15.00, 19.00 and 22.00. Anyway I will post my photohunters post later in between appointments.
This morning I will just post a piece of music I found at my friend’s blog. Enjoy Visit Foong please 
or I will feel guilty for quoting this piece from his blog.
I have asked for and thankfully received permission from fishman to post on my blog a video of a ‘dog rodeo’. Enjoy. Thanks Fishman. By the way, the dog’s name is Axel.
Axel apparently was wearing a harness after the vet told Fishman that a pug’s neck is too short for a collar. Axel had been wearing it for a while everyday although they were in the apartment, so that he could get used to it.
So far he had no problem with it… that is until Little Teddy ended up on Axel’s back. Many of us try to get rid of encumbrances exactly the same way as Axel don’t we? : that persistent admirer, pesky neighbor, work assignments, attention seeker at social gatherings, recurring credit card bills etc
I finally met sixthseal and rubberseeds. Unfortunately due to a problem with my camera, I lost all pics of the event.

I first met Wannabe Economist a few months ago. Here he is rendering his version of Knocking On Heaven’s Door by Guns n Roses.
Drop in and say a word of hi to him
