I bought an Xperia Sola for RM699 sometimes ago. It was annoying that I could only connect to home WIFI once in a blue moon when I have no problem accessing public WIFI. I called up Telekom and Sony mobile warranty center but each asked me to rectify the problem with the other party. My son said Telekom modem is not of good quality and getting a new TP-link modem would solve the problem.
Being an IT departmental head (though very small scale) before, I didn't give up searching for solution. Finally I read something about changing router channel. Eventually I called up Telekom customer service again to ask them to guide me how to change the channel. After changing the setting from 'auto' to channel 10, my problem is finally resolved!!!
Guess my two sons will look at me differently again!

See who can't "tahan"
Hubby and son had used up the
toothpaste. The tube was already flattened. I use Sensodyne. I was
curious why no one had taken the move to get a new one from the
drawer just a few steps away. When I asked, hubby said, 'see who
can't tahan.' After having said that, son went into the bathroom and
came out with the empty tube to show me. 'Why no one takes a new
one?', I said, 'your father said who can't tahan. If you can't, get a
new one then.'. He smiled and replaced with a new one.
We both laughed. Sometimes men are so lazy. I can't tahan the dirt on the floor. That's why I am always the one who mop the floor, clean the kitchen, so on and so forth.

Time With My Teenagers
My elder son has further his tertiary education oversea. My younger son will be sitting for his SPM next year. We have this idea of sending him to Institute Sinaran after his SPM because his current school doesn't seem to plan properly for senior 3 science stream to sit for their Independent Chinese School Exam.
It will be another 2 years to be with my younger son daily. Driving him to school, cooking meals for him, and asking him to take shower! When they have left home for further study, they may settle down for a job away from home as well after graduation. Should they marry someone who doesn't come from KK, I believe the chances of being physically close to them would be rare.
Someone posted on facebook. If he goes home twice a year to see his parents, should his parents live another 30 years, he would see them 60 times only! This make me really treasure my time with my children.
Mummy loves both of you, but I can't keep you next to me forever. I still carry the sweet memory of both of you wanting me to be with you all the time, and wanting to hold my hands when we went out, and wanting to sit next to me when we dined out. It seems like yesterday, when both of you annoyed me because both of you always fought to sit next to me. When I think back, I wish we could turn back the time.
Nevertheless, you need to grow, and look for your own freedom and way of living. Should we have a chance to live together after your graduation, it is a rich blessing from God for me!
God bless both of you!

My House Is Not For Sale
We bought our house 22 years ago. Before we got married, we looked for a house. Never owned a house before that, and never calculated the costs of buying a house. Two young adults from humble families, looking for a house to start a home. Just so happen that this house is located in today's prime area, cornered house, with ample of spaces for more than 5 cars to park, and a backyard for me to do my washing and grow some vegetables. Perfect for a person like me who prefers to work and stay at home.
Since several years ago, property prices have gone up so fast in KK. Many friends drop by will tell us how much my house worth. Some even suggested that we should sell the house, buy a smaller one, and keep the cash.
We always thank the Lord that we managed to pay off the house in 10 years. Since both of us were from humble families, we do not mind saving every cent to pay the installment. With God's blessings, our payroll enabled us to settle the loan faster than we expected.
Our children grow up in this house. There are many things for them to remember. I am still keeping the markings that they made since they were very young. From the markings, we can see how fast they have grown. The toilet door was slightly damaged by my elder son when he was in the primary. I left him with the Indo maid when I went to work. The maid teased him and he was so angry that he chased after the maid with a ruler. The maid escaped to the toilet and he hit the pvc toilet door with the ruler. The mango tree grew up together with them. Bits and traces in the house bring back memory.
My house is my home. If there is no strong reason, we wouldn't sell off our memory. Other people look at our house as an investment property. We look at our house with sentimental value. After all, assets can be in many forms. Why should I convert my fixed asset into current asset? Property price will sure keep on growing but value of money goes the other way.
Nevertheless, it is not very polite to suggest to anyone to sell their house if they are staying in that house.
