Fiona’s Neighborhood

While blogging now and I can tell you that its now one minute to one well not any more its exactly one in the morning. So what's everyone doing at this time? I can say that some people is having supper at hawker stalls and some people snoring very loud.

My dad once fall asleep even on his sofa he can snored so loud that everyone can hear it. He has been snoring and my mom told me he's very noisy. I also notice that my dad had a bad breath. So what's the problem? He did drink plenty of water but still having the bad breath.

Someone told me that its because of his health. Is it something he ate? I remembered a classmate that had a bad breath and I didn't tell her about it until today. Where is my classmate now? She's in overseas studying. Didn't have her contact any more as she didn't write also and no call as well.

I am sure everyone know what is flu and I can tell you that I never like one. If I have flu it will take me weeks to get better. Do you know what you can do if you have flu? How do you fight the flu? I know there's one way which is seek help from doctor and having the doctor to give the medicine.

Have you heard of Collaidal Silver? I think I have posted it before and have anyone try it out? Can Collaidal Silver fight the flu? Personally, I have not try any of the colloidal silver . I read that Colloidal Silver has been known to cure hundreds of ailments and diseases. If collaidal silver can fight the flu, will you give it a try?

I can tell you that if I have flu and a terrible one that making me so miserable I might think about it. I remembered a friend that willing to pay as much as a thousand to cure her sickness. I really didn't know about it until another friend tell me about it. Perhaps I can let her know about the colloidal silver it would be much cheaper than paying a thousand. It was quite sometime ago and I still haven't hear from her yet.

As earlier post I saying that my friend that bought some items on ebay and she had fully paid the item and even shipment fees. It was the Seller that didn't send her all her items. She has now asking help from PayPal hoping that they able to get the Seller to return her money.

Honesty is best policy but sad to say the Seller don't have this at all. It would be stupid if she is going to pay again for the shipment fees. It was then between her and the Seller that had an agreement and Seller never kept her promise. With tons of reasons and excuses, I will be fed up with such Seller too.

I know it's risky to shop online but I thought that with ebay you can trust it. Anyway its the Seller that didn't keep her promise. Do you think that ebay will ban such Seller? I really don't know.

Even though its already 12.30 in the middle of night but I am still not sleepy. Well thanks to the coffee that I bought. It's so strong that I remembered after drinking it at night I could only sleep around 2 in the morning. Not only me that haven't sleep, my family member too are still awake.

As for my sister she has gone back at 9 o'clock I could see her sleepy eyes and yeah I ask her is it sleepy. She told me yeah and she's going home shower than will sleep. I am sure she got some things to do before going to bed. She can take shower here but she didn't want as she want to use the computer.

She even ask me if I know any website that have the comic to see. Well, I didn't know any at all. Do you?

I am sure everyone have at least one pair of shoe. So tell me how many pair of shoes do you have? I know that I have a few pairs of shoes like boots, sandals, sport shoes but I don't think I have any running shoes . I am reading about the buying guide to buy running shoes. To be honest with you I find that I am quite choosy when comes to shoes. I don't just buy one that I see nice because I need to wear them first and walk around with it.

Say I am looking at some nice looking children boots . I have seen children boots that are nicer than woman's boots. Do you think that quality of the shoe is important? My sister told me that she always need to buy new shoes because she needs to walk a lot on her job.

She is lucky because her company did not request her to wear any shoes will heels. She can goes to work by wearing casual shoes . The company that I worked before most of them need to wear heels and I didn't like it at all. I can't walk fast and I know I am a clumsy person.

Care to tell me what kind of shoes do you have and what kind of shoes do you wear to work. We are lucky to have shoes to wear in some country they are people with no shoes to wear.

As you know that there are things that are getting expensive. Do you know that if the job you are holding allowed you to work on second job I mean like having another part time job. I can tell you that many jobs that I did before doesn't allowed employee to have another part time job or extra job. I think the reason is that the employer wants the employee to be faithful and concerntrate on their job at the company.

Do you feel that having second job or part time job will make you less concerntrate on your current job? Let me know about it if you are having such experience in job.

I know some people can do multiple job like they are having a day time job and they still able to go for a night time job. They just want to earn more money to fulfil their needs.

Today many people are finding their ways to earn more money today. There are many bills that waiting for someone to pay them. Like myself if I don't work where do I get the money to pay the bills.

Say have you watched the Golden Girls before? I had seen it and its sad to know that one of the Golden Girls has passed away. Estelle Getty  one of the movie which I can clearly remembered is the Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot .

It's one of my favourite movie, can you remembered that movie?

Do you have any favourite movie or show in mind?

As many posts ago I have mention before that my friend didn't get her item. Do you recall that? Well, now the seller is asking her for shipment fees as kept saying that she spend a lot money on courier but the item never reach her. First I like to tell you that the Seller has lied about a lot things. She kept empty promise to my friend saying that she had send the item out and even saying will provide the shipment code. But Seller never gave at all. The case has been so long and ebay didn't care about it any more.

What would you do? Pay for the shipping fees? Seller is asking USD $13 saying that if you want the item you must pay for the shipment. If not she won't send the Item at all.

The item that my friend paid for apparently the Seller don't have it any more because she sold it off with higher bid. That's not fair at all.

Do you have any advice in mind?

I had an email from Lloyd saying his phone wasn't working even though he'd set it up for roaming and could I ring Optus and see why.

I immediately passed this job onto Daz. That is one of his jobs. Dealing with phone matters, taking animals to the vet, cleaning up childrens vomit and picking up dog shit. (I pretend I don't see him throw it over the neighbours fence.)

So of course before you get to speak to a customer service person at optus (who I think is sitting in India), you have to first get past the robotic recorded voice that asks you questions to decide what department to send you to. I kept hearing Daz saying loudly Moow-biile. Because usually the recorded voice says - did you say manadarin? I just say - yes, because she gets confused and passes you onto an actual person.

So he got past her and waited for 30 minutes to talk to someone who said

I can't tell you anything without a password.

So we send Lloyds girlfriend a text - whats the password. Lloyd says he uses one password for everything so its probably that.

Daz repeats the whole 30 minute wait - gets to the service person and explains the situation again.

Do you have the password

Daz tells the password

That is not the password - it will only be four digits. But hang on he doesn't have a password set up says service person.

Daz says - good - then lets talk.

No, Lloyd will have to ring and set up a password.

He can't ring, thats the problem, his phone doesn't work.

Then he'll have to go to a public phone and ring.

So you want him to go to a public phone and stand there waiting for 30 minutes to set up a password?

Yes, this is what I'm wanting.

So Daz comes out and says

So now I'm going to have to ring back and pretend I'm Lloyd and set up a password.

So he waits another thirty minutes and speaks to someone else who doesn't even ask him for a password. Just his birth date and address. He then tells him the phone is set up for roaming but it doesn't work in a lot of places. In fact there is a long list of places it won't work and you're better off going and getting an international sim card.

Every now and then I have a moment where I wonder why we left optus years ago. Then I am reminded.
