New shoes!
------------

I've bought another pair of shoes! Haha...I've been wanting to get this kind of shoes for months! Reason for not getting them sooner, they are $89 per pair!! Ya...hehee...expensive hor? :P But, I've been quite willing to spend on shoes, if they are comfortable.

A few months back, I bought a pair from Pazzion, but...sad to say, my feet got hurt so badly from wearing that pair of shoes. My feet hurt for months, went to see "die da" twice already. Now, it's getting better.

I love wearing covered shoes, but they really give me a lot blisters. Sigh..vain lah...hahahah...but this Mika brand shoes, they are really comfy. Really good soles. And they always have limited designs. The boss say, they design the shoes' design themselves and sometimes they don't repeat the order. Sigh...So if really like it, must buy! hahha

The boss is really quite nice. He said he recognise us! Haha..every sunday, Chunping and I go to church and normally will pass by his shop to see whether got new designs or not! Haha..ya...so he already recognised us liao :P So malu

Anyway, here's the shoes, give some comments on what you think!

Mika's address if anyone is interested:

Too many things to do, too little time
--------------------------------------------

I've not been updating my blog for a long while, my dear momowish told me that she checks my blog! I thought nobody ever read my blog anymore! Haha...

So, I've decided to start writing again. Momowish, thank you for motivating me to start again! ^_^ hahaha..

Anyway, these few months has been a bit busy for me, because, I've started my online biz, with a good friend of mine. We have been browsing etsy and have been talking about starting a supplies' shop for quite a while. We never really went down to it, until finally we just decided to do it a few months back.

We were buying supplies from the local suppliers and selling them at only 1x profit. Not very lucrative and we were a bit disappointed, or rather, I was a bit disappointed.

Thank God, my partner found a site which sells supplies at wholesale prc! We were really excited at first, but realised that everything has to be purchased at a whole big lot! And it churns out to be quite a lot of $$ for the little few things.

So, we were calculating the cost, deciding what to get, what not to etc...A very tedious process. Our cost were limited and we also wanted to know if the site is legitimate. So we ordered something small to start.

Good service I would say, respond promptly to questions, and everything was quite smooth. The first batch of goods came in, we were happy and then, we were deciding to get more. But we were a bit tight on $$.

Thank God again, this time, my partner's sis volunteered to give us a loan! ^_^ I believe God delayed our decision for a good reason. At the same time, my partner found another site which sells lesser qty, but still ok wholesale prc! We were delighted!! So we did our shopping and bought the stuffs.

My online shops are www.bingbing.etsy.com and bingbing.dawanda.com

So far so good, although we come in at a time where the whole world is having a recession, but I believe the I don't depend on the whole's economy but the economy of my heavenly Father! hehee...

So, this has been keeping me busy. It's very interesting to do this kind of online biz. I'm quite happy. Hopefully the sales will take off enough for me to do it full-time! hahahha....
