Winning Contests and Goals Update

Blogging-Ads held a ‘one heck of a giveaway contest’ early last month and which just ended recently. Guess what? I won!! I still can’t believe it (you might want to check out their website for prize details and to enter more similar contests in the future)! To Mike Huang of blogging-ads, thank you so much again!! You’re doing so much to help new bloggers get the necessary exposure. I totally respect you and admire you for that:)

So far I’ve won 3 contests this year (online and offline) and it’s only the beginning:) May not seem like much. Still I feel truly blessed!

*******************************************************************************************

Other than that, let’s just say I’ve made a few alterations in my goals of owning my dream home. I have a second more achievable dream home now. It’s located much closer and I’ll actually be able to purchase it within this year (possibly towards the end)! It’s not as ambitious as my first dream home but the location is more strategic (golden triangle - near place of work, relatives, city, shopping centres, medical centres etc.), great neighbourhood, modern design, gated community, with beautiful landscape in the making (parks, jogging tracks - hubby’s fave). Isn’t that great!?

As for pursuing an MBA, I’ve recently requested for brochures from a University in London which looks like the best option for now. I still have to sit for the GMAT I think. Have to find out more about this from those in the know.

Work wise, I shall be seeing an increase in income by the end of this month (or possibly before Chinese New Year). Hopefully the same will apply to my online income.

I’ve also started reading Personal Money (this month being my second purchase - I may have considered subscribing if I hadn’t already subscribed to Forbes Asia), a finance magazine which was recommended by KCLau. This month’s issue covers a few topics of my personal interest namingly - selling your home yourself, investing abroad and on buying unit trusts.

Alright, that’s all the update for today! Catch ya later:)

Freebies Update!!

Jonathan Leger has released a new f.ree report that completely obliterates the following myths about Google (and then goes on to show you what DOES work):
Myth #1: Google Knows All and Sees All
Myth #2: Google Will Not Rank Duplicate Content
Myth #3: You Must Get Links From Related Subject Sites to Rank
Myth #4: Your Site Must Focus On One Subject To Rank
Myth #5: High PageRank Means Good Rankings
Myth #6: To Maintain Good Rankings, You Must Add New Content

..and..
MYTH #7: THE BIGGEST MYTH: Ranking In Google Is Hard!

And did I mention he’ll pay you for referring other people to this powerful f.ree report? And that he’ll pay you for anyone THEY refer as well (even while it’s in pre-launch)? Find out more about that when you download your sample chapter from: http://searchenginemythsexposed.com/?action=ref&novid=1&id=10275

MPH Vouchers

I just found out that I won myself MPH Vouchers today! Yay!! I had a good feeling I’d win the minute I dropped in my entry form. Hehehe.. Now despite having created a lense for list of financial books to read, I’m still having to decide which to buy! Any suggestions?

I think I want The Space Man Moppel LED Light too!

 For Gobala’s Christmas gift contest, I think I’ll put myself in the running to win the space man moppel LED light as well. What it actually is is a spaceman sort of figurine (blank face - no eyes, nose nor mouth) that you can place standing on your bureau (it has magnet at foot base). The face is supposed to light up in a soft, white, LED glow. Just the kind of ambience I want to create at my workspace.

So what are u all waiting for? Grab the chance to win some if not one fantastic gifts yourself at: http://www.easywordpress.com/labs/christmas-gifts-contest/

It’s only on for a limited time. If I led you to the link too late, then I apologise. You just weren’t fast enough.  Why don’t you bookmark my site (if you have too) or even better link back to me.. I don’t want you to miss out on any other goodies they’re giving away (from time to time).

I’m Trying For a USB Memory Watch

It’s the festive seasons and I’ve noticed many sites holding generous giveaway competitions. Gobala is doing one such giveaway. His offerings: SIX Crazy Christmas Gifts! Geeky gifts if you ask me (hehehe).. but really, they’re kinda cool! Something my hubby would love. So I’m aiming for the USB Memory Watch. Would make a fabulous holiday gift for hubby too since he’s old watch has gotten terribly worn and unwearable (he’s still sentimental about it and doesn’t look like he’s getting a new one soon).

Ok, so my point in promoting is so that all you people would hurry on over to http://www.easywordpress.com/labs/christmas-gifts-contest/ to win these awesome, loony, crazy prizes!! Just go for it (time limited)!!
