Nowadays, children’s education is very important. It is also one of the reasons why people are afraid of having a child, let alone children simply because education equals to money. I was born in the eighties, and my education only started when I was six. Some of my friends started at five. But now, parents have started their child’s education in the womb. Exaggerating? Not at all.

Kidzsmart is one of the many children education center that offers various teaching tools and methods to keep the children entertained. It boasts of having a set of custom kids activity books and kids placemats makes learning fun and easy. Of course, the concept is good since parents would not want their children to lose their childhood with piles of textbooks.

It is after I started my first job, only did I truly understand that working life is way longer and study life. Getting children in knowing this concept is almost impossible and it is nevertheless important for parents to push education to their children while providers provide quality teaching skills with tailor-made children activity packs.

I just read this interesting fact from Yahoo. The global recession is certainly something that most people are very aware of and listed below are some hints on how to tell if a company is going bust.

1. A decline in the level of work going through the factory or workshop, or a drastic decline in level of sales
2. Anxiety on part of staff, or increased levels of stress exhibited by proprietors
3. ‘Unusual’ meetings, or cancellation of company parties and social events
4. Proprietor telling receptionists to tell callers that they are not in
5. Employees will often become aware that the employer is not paying creditors in a timely manner or is taking extended credit
6. Salary cuts or redundancies – especially if there are several rounds within a short space of time
7. Visits from bailiffs
8. The disappearance of water coolers and pot plants from around the office

Yahoo – How to Tell if a Company is Going Bust

The previous post was referring to the previous black design. THIS new design, I would say, is much cleaner and it truly is a blog now. To be honest, I was thinking of making money through advertisement when I started blogging. Therefore, I missed out the true point of blogging even though I blog actively.

I have abandoned all the useless plugins and advertisement from the previous black design as well as the current design. However, I still miss the orange and yellow design which I find that it was a sharp and attractive design. Maybe I will convert this design to orange and yellow sometime later.

The long weekend is over. Next week is the trip Mee and I have been waiting. On the other hand, we are kind of worrying about the swine flu even though there are not many cases in Italy. Obviously, there are a lot of people asking the same question if you googled whether it is safe to travel to Europe. Most people will say it is safe to travel and even WHO stated that travel restrictions are not necessary at the moment except United States and Mexico. Another question remains whether it is better to play safe for now or risking our health. Anyway, Mee and I will be closely following the progress of swine flu.

Below are some pictures of Mee’s dessert. Yummy yummy …

The new computer arrived two days ago as expected. It looks great and I just love it. No more sudden shut down or restart and no more blue screen of death. Read more over at All My Reviews.

I have decided, yet again, to change this blog design. Hmm.. this is the fifth design and I am abandoning it. The new design presents everything in a clearer way, hopefully. And I have abandoned the idea of using black as the background color. I hope that I will be able to launch it this weekend.

The weather has turned good these few days compared to raining days last week. My manager will be on leave next week while I will be on leave the week after as Mee and I will be going to Italy. And my manager will be on leave again the week after I come back from Italy. Anyway, Mee and I are very eager for our week to come.
