I can’t believe its going to be three to four weeks before I will be done with my degree. I would so love to take time to travel. I have my Sabah trip lined up in early July. Bought the tickets ages ago.

But, I’m really hoping that I can make it to Jakarta early June but I might not be able to because I’m still not sure when’s my exams. Its going to be a family trip (which we could afford flights to USA but Indonesia would do).

Its been a while since I’ve been there. Lots of new shopping malls there and I love all the little quaint ‘pasar malam’ (night market) with lots of stalls and really cheap stuff.

Now if only my lecturer can get back to me on the exact date of our paper. Hurm.

If you have been keeping updated on my pacmee (type ON COCONUTICE to 22700 - for maxis/hotlink users only) or noticed my SMS updates on the right, then you would have known that my bed broke this morning. Yea, don’t laugh!

No, I did not have a all-night sex marathon. I wish! My bed has been creaky, shaky and uneven for months now. Not only that, it has been broken slightly here and there and this morning, it decided to fall apart.

So this evening after class (which was yet ANOTHER waste of time), I went with mum to go and check out beds. We went to Courts then IKEA and finally Harvey Norman. Wow! They really did have amazing stuff there.

There was this really nice 6 seater dining table made out of black metal and a top of smooth black granite (like in the picture of the counter top from American Home Craft Inc. Come to think of it, there are many more nice stuff at AHCI like windows (with a lifetime warranty that it wont break) and gorgeous wood kitchen cabinets.

Anyway, I should be getting a new solid divan with a headboard and thick mattress soon. Yey!

Everyone is talking about SEO, which is Search Engine Optimization. Why make your blog or website SEO friendly? This is so that it shows up when people search for spesific words on search engines such as Yahoo! Search, Ask.com, Live Search and the ever popular Google. The aim after all is to ensure that everyone knows and sees your website/blog.

I came across this article written by Robert about how to improve your blog visibility using Adwords optimization. In the article he explains the concept of Adwords - advertising in Google - and how to go about optimizing Adwords to promote your site. He also gives more examples of how to promote your site by using directories and banners.

It was a really informative read which is useful for web developers and bloggers. So yea, go and take a look.

Uh, I need a break. So much school work to do and I feel so distracted. The great thing about this semester is that I don’t have lots of papers to complete. Especially since its my final semester and I’m so happy I’m not bogged down by loads of exams. The bad part is, I have 3 major tedious projects to finish up by the end of this semester.

The thing I like to do to de-stress is to hang out with my dearest friends. Usually we go clubbing or partying to let of some steam, have a couple of drinks, dance to good music and ogle at hot guys - be it black, white or brown. Other times we have pigging out sessions where we either gather up everyone for a potluck or eat out at a nice restaurant.

Hey babes, we should go for a picnic one of these days. Bring sandwiches and other food, lay down the picnic blanket and have fun. Or go to a waterfall or something. It’ll be fun yea?
