Making money the easy way

Feng Shui tips

One of the most interesting presents I received last year is a book. A little book to keep at your desk. To keep VERY close to you. It has a message that is deeper and greater than all of us together. Understanding this book will take you to a different dimension in the concept of BEING ALIVE. Being in HARMONY WITH your surroundings, yet with yourself.

Yes.
It is the very own LITTLE BOOK OF FENG SHUI AT WORK (by Lillian Too)

I decided to re-read some of its pages to REALLY understand its deep and inspiring meaning. I surprisingly came to page 23, 5th line. Since I asked people to share this in my
previous blog, I thought it was only fair to share what this book has to say in this exact page as well. Here it goes:

Reduce clutter to Encourage Harmony
Do not allow your work space to get untidy or sirty. Clutter is often a cause od misunderstandings and disharmony among colleagues

DIOS MIO!!!

Some people go through life earning their money so happy and freely!!! This is a very generous world. By the way, if you are looking for ideas on how to have an extra income, you might want to take a look at
this web

On the spur of the moment: Fun Book Task!

Book task

It is late already on a Friday night
It is dark outside (yet hot like a microwave oven right after you use it to re-heat some leftover lunch. OH Come ON!! Do not tell me it is only me doing it, ok!?)
Procrastinating for a second and totally soaked in that inertia that makes you still stay on-line and browse for whatever
I do not know how I ended up on
Milan’s blog and I found one posting I LOVED. I will edit it a bit and copy it into my blog (thanks Milan for the inspiration)

Interesting Exercise
1. Grab the nearest book

2. Open the book to page 23
3. Find the fifth line counting from the top
4. Post it as a comment to this blog (it does not matter if it is incomplete, just copy the fifth line of the page 23)

Surprise us!

I am number 4001!!!

A friend of ours (Audi, from Indonesia) at the end of the working day of today sent an interesting game to some people. Brain dead and willing to go home, I decided to take a chance and went for it.

Give this a go, if you have a spare time. Very interesting. Apparently there are less than 4000 people in the world who can escape this house. So have a try. (DO NOT GOOLGE for the solutions, eh?)

There are 13 items hidden in this room in order to let you get out of the room. You need to click, look beyond, be creative, use your logic...

If you find:
0-6 items, your IQ is very low, TOTAL IDIOT
6-8 items, Low IQ, u r an IDIOT
9-10 items, u r NORMAL
11-12 items, your IQ is high, ABOVE THE AVERAGE
13 items found and get out of the room, there are less than 4000 people
in the world can do it. BRAVO!

HINT & HELP: The web link written in one of the items does not work, however the secret code number it would have given you is 1994 (remember it, for you will need it to continue with the game)

Have fun... Challenge yourself and please share your results!

Mwahahahahahaha!

a beach weekend without the beach...

... but a sofa and movies, and air con.

I know, it does not sound appealing at all. However, I tell you I had such a relaxing time that I cannot put it into words.

In a week and something I will be again like in this following picture...
Human Nature
...and I cannot wait for it!

Have a nice week everyone!

Some higlights of the underwater world...

Hola everyone!

Thanks for all the emails about my last posting. I decided I will simply post some 3 pics tonight to remember this great weekend. Here they go:

Underwater Nacho

Yes, I was wearing a T-shit because it was really sunny and I did not want to fry the skin of my back.

Swiming with Sharks

Some people asked me why the shark looks so small. It was a real almost 2 meter shark, and I was floating on top of him. Do you think I would like to go any closer for the sake of a picture? Mmmmm. HELLO!? NOPE! Wanna havbe a close up, go google and find it. I am happy with this shor because I TOOK it, without a zoom. Thankyouverymuch!

Nemo

Although the shark was scary, this little piece of… Nemo gave me a hard time!. He was defending his territory (in this case “anemonerry”) Everytime I came close to take the picture he would go out of the anemone and would confront me. Good for him I do not like to eat fish, otherwise he would have ended in a frying pan with butter and black pepper.

I am sure God Intended it this way...

Perhentian banner

God intended it that way, but NOPE, there she had to go to where she had been told not to go and snoozed around! All for an apple! A FREAKING APPLE! And the most ridiculous thing is that when they get cravings now, they go for strawberries, and apples are the last things that cross their minds! WHY WHY WHY!?

Anyway, this weekend I had the chance to experience what paradise might have looked like if Eva had not been so curious. I went to PERHENTIAN ISLANDS in Malaysia (click here) I know Redang is TOP of my list, but these islands are very close , I tell you.

I had the marvelous chance to pamper myself with little pleasures we, urban individuals, are deprived from:
- sleep for more than 9 hours non-stop
- turn your mobile off for 3 days
- eat, sleep, eat & sleep a bit more (and then you wake up to eat a bit more)
- see the sun for more than the pathetic 3 minutes that you usually take to get from the bust stop (or metro) to your office
- remember that the ocean makes a sound, and birds too, and that breeze is supposed to be fresh and clean, not warm and full of smog
- etc, etc, etc I think you get the picture.

The biggest decisions of the day were:
- do I get up from my nap to go snorkeling or should I stay here passing out in my room with the soothing sound of the ocean as a background
- Should I swim in the pool by the sea, or in the sea itself
- Etc, etc, etc

All I needed this weekend, I had. OK, I did not have the lime margarita. They did not have any other alcohol other than beer.

WHATEVER! Viva, LABOUR DAY VIVA!!. (Come to think of it, the reason why we had this vacation - Labour Day - has nothing to do with pleasant situations and peaceful scenarios. Ironic, eh?!)

On top of it all, while snorkeling I FOUND NEMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
