Yadda Yadda Yadda's Articles

Last night, I did some blog hopping and stumbled on 5xMom’s Women Only blog. Gosh, I was quite taken by surprise. Firstly, she is using the same template as this blog but so are everyone else who signed up with the same webhost. What caught me off guard was the fact that her blog also focuses on beauty, fashion, etc.

I always visit 5xMom‘s blog but this was my first time to this blog of hers. Being the celebrity that she is, I am a bit concerned that people might say that I have copy cat her blog. Afterall, I’m just a small time blogger and she is the famous one. Honestly, I did not intend to have such similarity in terms of blog presentation and topics. I confessed that 5xMom is an inspiration to many and I started doing paid posting due to her very positive feedback through her articles on her blog. So, how could I even consider copying her work?

Anyway, now that I have put this down in writing, I feel much better. Until I managed to conquer CSS editing, my blog presentation shall remain as it is. What can a tech idiot do? *Sigh*

Goodness gracious, I almost had a heart attack just now. After I posted the post before this one, my sidebar disappeared and so did all my other posts!!!

After reading 5xMom’s sites being hacked, I panicked and emailed her and my webhost asking them for advice. Luckily, I rechecked and managed to view my other posts via the search button on the top left hand corner of the blog template. Phew!

So, I think it must be the widget that I installed for the poll that should take the blame for all my hoo ha. *wipes away cold sweat* I wish I had asked for some tips from Chris before I installed that one. Hai…. 

We women love to complain. NO. Let me rephrase that so I do not get thrown with rotten tomatoes….I’m a woman who loves to complain.

Call it feedback, call it complain, call it whatever you want but I can vouch that it works to get you the attention you want. This is one secret recipe I learnt through my experience in the Customer Service line. Of course, don’t complain over petty issues if you can avoid it. My actions have resulted in me getting free travel size skin care items, results that I want, a certain banks regional head calling me up, waiver of late payment charges and many more.

I remembered a week back when I was checking in for my flight and there was a long queue. My colleagues and I were routed to the international check in counter. Upon reaching there, the MAS staff was upset with us despite the fact that there was no one queueing up. We explained that why we were routed there but she continued to mumble that she needed to check whether she can do it…yadda yadda yadda. Of course, we were equally upset by her service. So, while waiting for her to check, there was this small customer feedback machine placed at the counters. Being the evil women that we are, we proceeded to vent our frustration through our feedback. Guess what? I believe that MAS staff could not bear the *tit tit tit* sound we made with the machine,so she changed her tone to a sweet one. Sheeesh! Too late, she did not get a good review from us. *ngek*

So you see, I believe I am a very much dreaded and hated customer but who cares, I get what I want. Never, never under estimate the power of feedback and threat complain from a woman ;)

I blogged about how my handphone kaput a month back and that I bought a new one. So, here’s a look at the features of my sickening cell phone Nokia 6233:

  • A small, sleek mobile device with indulgent stainless steel – the perfect balance of features for both business and pleasure
  • Real time access to information at all times through mobile broadband
  • High quality sound through stereo speakers and 3D surround sound
  • Up to 70MB total memory (6MB internal + 64MB memory card) for storing videos, pictures, and messages
  • 2-megapixel camera with 8x smooth, digital zoom and landscape mode
  • Stereo FM radio and music player
  • Enhanced Java email client for easy sending and receiving of information
  • Spam filter to avoid junk mail
  • Supports video sharing, streaming, and recording capabilities
  • Video, MP3, eACC+, and 64-bit polyphonic ringing tones
  • Weight: 110 g
  • Dimensions: 108 x 46 x 18 mm, 81 cc

Amboi, sounds so canggih, ya? No doubt the features are better than my old phone but a couple of days after I bought it, I couldn’t retrieve the data from my memory card. Then, I sent it back and they format the memory card for me. Oklah, this ignorant woman did not know that the memory card have to format *duh*. So, all the info stored in the card were lost. That’s why I asked for some of your numbers again.

Now, guess what, yesterday I was MMS-ing photos to my email account and it blacked out. Sheesh!!! Can you believe it??? Die, die, try but cannot power on. I’m so totally bummed out by this. Sent back to the technician today and they did who-the-heck-cares-what something on my handphone. So far, so good but I lost my photos and data in the memory card again. I tell you, I am so super duper pissed off mad. Lucky, it’s the hub who sent the phone over. Else, tomorrow you will read in the paper “Crazy Woman Kills Technician Over Handphone Problem“.

Psst psst….remember, don’t buy this phone, ya?

If anybody tells me that conquering Word Press was easy this very moment, I would bash that person until he gets all blue and black!!!

I HATE! HATE! HATE! Word Press *sob sob* This is one of the worst blogging moments in my life. I’ve actually had to edit two posts for 30 to 40 times due to alignment and yet, they still look awful. I never had that problem with blogspot before.

I wanna bang my keyboard each time I view my blog, it’s so irritating. I seriously need to get a sifu to teach me WP. Help, help *grovels on the floor* Any volunteers?
