I was never a full time blogger

I'm old.... old like the restless Balinese lady
(took this during Bali trip 12/15)

Wow... it's been some time since I saw my blog due to work. These days I could only have time for myself during the weekends. My routine? Eat, work, eat, sleep, repeat. I wouldn't even look at my phone or Facebook anymore because I'm so tired. The funny thing? People still think I'm a full-time blogger and I would proclaim I have never been a full-time blogger. Blogging remains a hobby to me. I guess it's whether I have the time, or I don't have a chance to blog. 

When I do have the time to blog, I wonder what I should be blogging about *scratch head*. 

Let's see at work; I was telling my boss who hired me that I am no feymes because I'm giving my all to the company. Makes sense right? I wonder if he's going to fire me then since I am no longer feymes. I put feymes instead of famous because I never thought of myself as famous. How can I be famous like Kim Kardashian, famous? I am not famous like xiaxue. I'm a small potato.

Popularity is very subjective. For instance in Malaysia, bloggers think by frequently attending events and showing off what they get is a measure of popularity. The downside of this is when you don't have time; you're going to be not popular soon because you built your popularity over being seen at or with things / people / services. Not for your content. 

When it's about content, it's how great your contents are. When you stop creating content. There goes your popularity because your readers think you're dead. I see there's still die hard readers who come back to peek now and then *thank you*.

have you heard of tandhk?

Someone from Australia dm me on Instagram asking if I would review their acne cream. It's a brand call TandHK. Priced at 15ml for AUD$50 (pretty expensive for SEA), this product helps to reduce redness (erythema) and irritation caused by pimples/spots in as little as 12hours* - quoted from their website. They wanted to pay me to review this but I told them honestly, I don't suffer from acne or spots so I wouldn't be a good candidate for them to waste their money on. Also, I feel reviewing comes from unbias testing and being paid to review seems... wrong. Unless you want me to post an advertisement for your product, then it makes sense or if you expect me to review this with priority postings (deadline & sticky post for 24 hours). 

Otherwise, pay to review do readers believe in us anymore when money is involved in reviews?

I don't see what's in it for me if I don't love the product. Having it laying around my home is as good as keeping an Ikea picture frame.

She was surprised I wouldn't take her money. Instead, I told her I'll try her product on victims and blog about it. I think I have found my victim. My boss today had a bad breakout due to haze, so I think I'll bring this cream to the office on Monday to help him reduce the redness.

  3. Hi everyone, fix your broken relationship and marriage right now no matter how hopeless your situation seems!! I am so excited sharing my testimony with everyone here about how i saved my marriage and got my husband back after a divorce..I am Natasha Hayes by name and i live in England. I'm a happily married to a lovely and caring husband ,with two kids.A very big problem occurred in my family seven months ago,between me and my husband .so terrible that he took the case to court for a divorce.he said that he never wanted to stay with me again,and that he didn't love me anymore.So he packed out of the house and made me and my children passed through severe pain. I tried all my possible means to get him back,after much begging,but all to no avail.and he confirmed it that he has made his decision,and he never wanted to see me again. So on one evening,as i was coming back from work,i met an old friend of mine who asked of my husband .So i explained every thing to him,so he told me that the only way i can get my husband back,is to visit a spell caster,because it has really worked for him too.So i never believed in spell,but i had no other choice,than to follow his advice. Then he gave me the email address of the spell caster whom he visited.{Unityspelltemple@gmail.com}. So the next morning,i sent a mail to the address he gave to me,and the spell caster assured me that i will get my husband back the next day.What an amazing statement!! I never believed,so he spoke with me,and told me everything that i need to do. Then the next morning, So surprisingly, my husband who didn't call me for the past{7}months,gave me a call to inform me that he was coming back.So Amazing!! So that was how he came back that same day,with lots of love and joy,and he apologized for his mistake,and for the pain he caused me and my children. Then from that day,our marriage was now stronger than how it were before,by the help of a spell caster Dr Unity. So, i will advice you out there, if you have any problem contact Dr Unity and i guarantee you that he will help you and you will be the next to share your testimony to every one in the world!!. Email him at: Unityspelltemple@gmail.com or call him on: +2348072370762.
