[Video] YMCA, Dance on TikTok

Above was me dancing to participate in a sponsored program for a 30-day challenge by the mastermind of the moniker, Saje Flow (pronounced as 'Sage' Flow). What I like about TikTok is that it allows you to create short videos and that's about it. There is just too much negativity here, when you read about the political current situation, that I just try to forget about it, and move on with life, hoping to earn an income and be cautious, not to be conned of my hard-earned money. I pray for the covering of Psalms 91 over my life, my finances, my family and everything else.

Also, while in the process of trying to earn extra income, and get busy hustling, I also need to reduce the noise and challenge outside by reducing work load. In addition, I need to pamper myself, by having more "ME" time in solitude and to reflect. For people of other religion or faiths, they will meditate and do what it takes to stay positive, stay calm and stay connected with loved ones.

Below is my Instagram account's photo of Good Morning, Relax It's Sunday message.

The body heals with play, the mind heals with laughter and the spirit heals with joy. See the lovely Instapic below:-

In retrospect, women are the largest untapped reservoir of talent in the world - Hillary Clinton.

See her picture and some words of wisdom.

Finally, stay safe and stay at home.

[Video] Aquatic Animals and Pets

This video shows the various pets for sale like dogs, cats, rabbits, parrots, hamsters, mice, an albino Burmese python, tarantulas, bearded dragon pet lizards, various fresh water and sea water fishes, Arowana fish, and pet accessories. Normally, photo taking is Not allowed. But since my friend is a regular customer there, I had the opportunity to take this video for posterity and also indirectly an advertisement for Chew Thean Yeang Aquatic and Pet company.

There's a rare white albino Python for sale as a pet too! Fancy this! In retrospect, I love watching the various fishes swimming, like the Japanese Koi carp, Golden Arowana for "huat" or prosperity, gold fishes and many more. The baby rabbits were so cute to look, but they have small claws, bear this in mind, when carrying them by holding the furry body. Hamsters are easier to upkeep due to its size.

I used to own a hamster called "Hammy" back then, during my student days in the varsity. It was a gift from second sis who was studying in NUS at that point in time. Now she's married and lectures in a UK university, armed with a PhD or doctor of Philosophy, in English Literature. Being a banana, or "Chinese outside but English inside", she loves staying and had gotten herself settled down in the U.K.

Second sis had worked for 5 years as the the head of English Business department in Suzhou, China. She voluntarily resigned to pursue her PhD. In fact, her boss wanted to increase her salary to entice her to stay on, but she had already made up her mind.

Do you like the Instagram picture above? I love "Good Morning" pictures from my various Whatsapp groups and post here for posterity. Incidentally, I also happened to be chosen for Blog Meets Brand ambassador for the first time for Saje Flow. He's of Asian descent living in the US and is a motivational speaker as well as a Youtuber. Apparently he loves dancing and talking, motivating his viewers and sponsee, like yours truly, to create videos and to post on the various social media.

Below is a TikTok video specially made for Saje Flow:-

This is the first time, I managed to add voice with background music to suit the requirements.

From 2021 onwards, I am going to hustle hard, save up as much as I can, and complete as many gigs as possible, while not forgetting to schedule self care daily. Thanks for the inspiration by Saje Flow. Check out:- https://members.dancingandlife.com/auth/register?afmc=7u 😍😎😁

See the before and after effects of the vlogger's hair. Since I know MCO or movement control order will be implemented soon, I decided to take the opportunity to have my hair cut short and chemically straightened the day just before MCO kicks in. You can also see my quick dinner of braised beancurd with crab meat and it was so delicious.

See the lovely Chinese New Year decorations in Gurney Plaza, Penang and my yummy lunch of minced chicken noodles in a set with Chinese Tea. Enjoy the video above!

[Video] Travel to China before Covid, covering 4 places - Shanghai, Hangzhou, Suzhou and Wuxi

The above is a walk down memory lane just before Covid-19 hits. It was a trip to China covering 4 places - Shanghai, Hangzhou, Suzhou and Wuxi, by Air Asia. Those were the heydays and carefree years away from the fear of contracting the recent pandemic that has ravaged the world economy, made millions unemployed and homeless, so say the least.

Anyway, enjoy the night lights of a river cruise in Wuxi, supposedly a retirement town in China. Yet it was bustling with activities at night like tourists such as yours truly patronizing this lovely town for its man-made lights and creations along the small river. Just beside this river were many souvenir gift shops for your shopping indulgence.

As usual, I got myself some fridge magnets from the various countries that I had visited for posterity and the dozens of magnets stuck to my fridge as a mini celebration of my world tour. Each year, I will visit different country/ countries before Covid-19. So, now I just stay at home, even during Christmas, where previously it was routine to visit Genting Highlands for its fresh mountain air, and to dine plus a little shopping. Gambling is a big no-no.

Hope you like the colorful Instagram picture above taken from my account. In all things, we need to put God and Jesus first, so that our labor will not be in vain. Also, man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of GOD. See the picture below for some nuggets of wisdom.

Enjoy. God's Word is our most powerful weapon against depression, sickness, poverty, and other ills of society. Finally and in retrospect, stay safe and stay at home if possible.

[Videos] Good Morning, Lunch at The Little Nonya, Dinner at Kim Gary in Penang

Above is a thumbnail of yours truly enjoying her Cheese baked fish fillet in Kim Gary Restaurant, Penang. Since there was a voucher every month for a free meal, we decided that it is time to enjoy the new year of 2021 with a delicious meal at our favorite restaurant. Do watch the video till the end. I would appreciate it.

The video above showcases my lunch at The Little Nonya Restaurant, also in the premier mall in Penang. I am a foodie and love all my meals. These are not sponsored meals by the restaurant. I had to pay for them and also as curated content for my videos as a hobby. There are so many awesome people online that you can connect via the social media and pick their brains off the bat.

As today is a lazy Sunday, I decided to blog and post a lovely picture of colorful hearts from my Instagram account, that was uploaded this earlier this morning. Enjoy!

See the coloful hearts united in a picture composition that caught my attention today. Below is another one as your eye candy.

Doesn't the baby look cute? Give someone a smile if you can. Be childlike and not indulge in adulting, hope you get what I mean. Don't be unkind to others and put them down so that you will elevate yourself to feel good at other people's expense.

Here is my last picture of another Sunday Good Morning message with a beautiful picture of a yellow rose. In retrospect, and in a nutshell, stay safe and always wear your mask.
