Open an online shop is really not as easy as one thinks it is... Indeed, you can always open a shop online easily, but who's your customers? How to attract potential customers to your shop? How to do business with others? How to compete with others when you happen to sell the same items as them???
=o=".... Thinking of these, make me headache, tired and despair... But, one thing for sure, I cannot give up halfway... Since I had started, I must and I will try to persist till the day I really feel very very tired and cannot move on. Maybe by then, even if I still want to continue but I don't have the energy to do so anymore...
Other than this, yesterday I just quarreled with my sister regarding my daddy and her son... Is money really so important than her own son's future? Is my daddy not worth to visit than her company dinner? We can always earn back the money we lost no matter how hard. How about her son's future? When it is ruined, can anyone turn back the time and save all this disaster? We only have one natural daddy and he's sick, don't know how long can he live. Celebrating his birthday with him, maybe for the last time, is it very hard? Company dinner, every year has. Even if you change company, there will still be there. Some more, from her, it seems like every 3 months got one...
Recently, one of my friend is reported pregnant. I'm actually happy for her but in the other hand, I'm also worried for her... May god bless her and her baby with good health and smooth processes throughout this whole pregnancy period...
One more thing, my brother is leaving soon to Brunei to work. I know he's old enough to take care of himself, but still I will worried since he can't always come back here frequently and maybe it'll take about half year before we can see him again... Take care, brother. If got anything, must contact us... Even got no problem, still must contact us to let us know your situation there...
Sometimes, I really think myself crazy... I am already very busy and occupied with my own things and problems and troubles, why do I still want to bother with other people's affair? Frankly said, that's really none of my business!!! But, conclusion, that's my character... I just can't simply put aside things or problems or troubles that's in front of me and I know it... However, I only care for those around me and I know them... I guess this is how I treat my friends... With sincerity even though will hurt...
Regardless where I will be, all these memories filled my life. Be it a happy one, a sad one, an exciting one, etc, it's all part of my life that I will always cherished...❤

My Appreciation...❤
My Appreciation...❤
Recently, I had been doing some online sales corresponding to Mother's Day. During that period, I did receive some comments/emails stating that the item that I sold was far quite expensive compared to others. Hence, I browsed through the websites that they provided.
Indeed, there were some differences. However, I found that in M'sia, the price stated for the items are mostly for the standard size pan and not the ocher deeper that I'm selling (of course, I also managed to find a few webs selling ocher deeper pan with much lower price as well.)
At the same time, I also came upon some websites stating that they had bought fake pans. After reading their articles, I immediately checked all the pans that I had purchased from my supplier and was relieved to find that all the pans were real. (So, I told those who left comments to me -> 1st, the price they stated was for the standard size pan. 2nd, I don't know where they got their stocks and I'm not sure whether the pan is real or fake but what I'm confirm with is mine is 100% real from Korea.)
Even though this had passed, I still browse through the websites just to find out why some of those online sellers can sell their pans/items at such low prices. In conclusion, I find that it was my source. I got the pans at a slight higher price than the others and that makes me need to raise the price a bit in order to gain profit. (Well, doing business is to get profit, right?)
Other than that is the shipping method. Maybe I'm quite lucky. Last Wednesday, I went to the custom to retrieve my stocks and the custom officers gave me very good advices. They told me that I should go for the normal shipping instead of speedy shipping. Although speedy shipping is fast but the fee is also very costly compared to normal shipping (Speedy shipping cost is twice or more than the cost of normal shipping. Shipping fee in M'sia will also be used to calculate the tax being imposed.) In short, no matter what method I used, I will eventually received my stocks. It is only the matter of time but the price gap is huge...
Frankly said, I'm still new to this online open market but through those few 'sales' days, I really learnt a lot of priceless experiences. So, at here, I sincerely thanked those who left comments to me to do some soul-searching. Now, I'm very actively finding more suppliers that can give me a very good price for the items I want to purchase so that I can also give 'my future customers' reasonable price. I'm also actively finding forwarding/freight/shipping company that can be trusted that can help me with the dealing at custom.
For those who have purchased items from me, a really big THANK U and HUG from me to you. Thanks for your support and I'll try to do better in future.
Till then, thanks again =]

Failed... again... =[
Yesterday when I went for piano lessons, I received a very bad news (at least to me, it was)... I failed my theory grade 8 again.... This was the 2nd time. I just can't wonder out where exactly is wrong... Last time at least I got 58 marks and that time I was terribly sick. This time round I only obtained 53 marks with a little flu and discomfort with me?!...
What was wrong actually? Getting older, so when taking exams I had phobia?? Oh no, that can't be and mustn't be... I still have my practical to go for... Only for theory, I already like this, then how am I going to take my practical exams??!!
Haiz, enough of all these... I have to try harder for next round at August... For that, I must pass if not I'm really feeling very... I believed in the whole exam hall, I'm the oldest... Sometimes, really feel very 'pai sei'...
I got lei... But still failed... Maybe not hard enough and not attentive enough... =[
