[Videos] When to Pay EPF, Spin to Win and Sis' Birthday Treat

The above video is for employers like my business partner, whom registered for an enterprise, or sole proprietorship company. Due to lack of funds in this MCO, we paid late and were fined a total of RM 27. Let the video speaks for itself, and I shall not dwell on this further.

Below is a "Happy Sunday" message taken from my Instagram account, since today is Sabbath day, a time to rest from working 6 days. Enjoy the red foliage.

This is an interesting video of our lunch at Pizzaiola, an Italian Restaurant in Lot 10, Prangin Mall, Penang. After lunch, we were given 2 spin to win cards where you press a button to select the color you want the pointer to stop at the wheel of colors. Refer to the video below:

Here are the fruits of the Holy Spirit. The Fruit of the Holy Spirit is a biblical term that sums up nine attributes of a person or community living in accord with the Holy Spirit, according to chapter 5 of the Epistle to the Galatians: "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

The video below shows the lifestyle of the vlogger in Penang. We were celebrating my sister's birthday earlier than usual, since she has plans for a staycation in a new apartment in Macalister Road with her friends, on the actual birthday. The food was delicious with thick seafood soup, amongst others. I shall not spoil the video and let you watch till the end of the clips.

Below is a very touching message that impressed upon my heart, a "Good Morning" message plus some nuggets of wisdom - "Live your Life and Do What Makes You Happy." This is so crucial in this pandemic, that we need to find things to do that really makes us happy, NOT depressed nor sad, from cold calling to a few of the toxic people! This world is full of negativity already, coupled with the pandemic situation. Hence, we don't need to explain to anyone; We don't need anyone's approval. Jesus loves us enough and that is sufficient for me!

Below is my letter of completion of Youtube Creation.

Finally, stay safe at home, until you get your full innoculation plus booster jab, which is a passport to travel using the vaccination certificate. And it is compulsory to get Chinese vaccine like Sinovac, etc. to travel to China in the near future.

[Videos] Penang's Famous 'Padang Brown's Poh Piah' and Lunch at Passions of Kerala Restaurant

The above is a short video on Penang's famous 'Padang Brown Poh Piah' or salad spring roll with extra crab meat with surcharge. The roll with extra crab meat cost RM4.00 each, which is about USD1.33. It consists of julienned turnip stir-fried with carrots. This is topped with shallots, plenty of real crab meat, wrapped with a rice batter skin and smeared with a special secret sauce, with or without red pounded chili paste.

This is one of my weekly staples, amongst others.

See the picture on Kindness from my Instagram account below:-

Recently, I happened to have a lunch meal at Passions of Kerala Restaurant, in New World Park. This was tomato rice with 3 types of veggies, a mint sauce past and 3 types of curries consisting of dhal curry, chicken curry and another type of curry. See the short interesting video below to whet your appetite.

For drinks, I ordered mango 'lassi', which is a type of Indian yoghurt drink. I am thankful for being alive daily in this pandemic. Things could go wrong anytime and in Malaysia, I feel like being followed everywhere I go. I don't know why I am 'so' important but apparently the Times Square JMB or other authorities' fear of the information and experience that I went through, and expose their misappropriation of JMB funds! Well, if the top leadership can become a backdoor government and stealing of government coffers like 1MDB, Tabung Haji, FELDA, etc, then it is the norm that everyone seems to follow suit; except for a few grandpas or baby boomers who are fighting hard for their grandkids' uncertain future. Kindly, please stop this snooping and targeting around wherever I go!

Below is a nice Instagram picture of Psalms 91:11 on God's protection. Just click on '>' button to swipe left and see 2 more "Good Morning" lovely photos. There is a baby resting with the quotes, "No Job, No Stress." And another third and final awesome picture as well. See below:-

That's it for today. Stay safe and stay healthy.

[Videos] Penang Batik Clothes and Batu Feringghi Beach Travel

Above is a short video taken by me, and compiled with copyright-free music with credits given below it. See the colorful play of designs and repertoire of colors as eye candy. They sell men's short-sleeve shirts, women's scarves, blouses, pajamas, and more. This is located on the ground floor in the main foyer of Prangin Mall. Do view the entire video.

See an Instagram shot of the various Penang Batik clothes in this post below:-

The video below showcases the vlogger's travel by car along the famous Batu Feringghi Road stretch, lined with condominiums, both high and low-ends. For the purpose of this video, I have removed the low-end apartments, built by the Malaysian government for the tsunami victims and also the priviledge "bumiputra" MIA - missing in action lot.

See the relaxing azure blue seas, greenery of shrubs and coconut trees, amongst others that grow on both sides of the winding road. See a cameo appearance of yours truly, de-stressing while squeezing a rubber toy ball, towards the end!

As today is lazy happy Sunday, I have added my Instagram pictures here of "Good Morning," from my account. Hope you like it as much as I do. By the way, a strawberry is the only fruit with seeds outside the skin.

That's it for now. Just in case, you need to register for Covid-19 vaccination on the MySejahtera App on a voluntary basis and it is your passport to future travel overseas. You will be given a Covid-19 certificate after completing the booster jab. Stay safe and stay happy.

I would like to wish "Happy Valentine's Day" to all couples and also single people. 🧡💛💚💙💖💦

More importantly, stay healthy and stay happy.

See the lovely picture of Valentine's day theme Instagram taken from my account:-

On a side note, it is indeed sad, that a dear Atomian who was my first member, and the only one who attended a Zoom session, albeit only once, passed away on 5th February 2021 due to a massive sudden cardiac arrest. Kelvin Chan had feedback to me about frequent gastric pains, when it was actually a symptom of an impending heart attack. Also, his boss owed him RM500 from RM1k due to the pandemic and MCO. So, it is a solemn situation for everyone here, especially in Malaysia, notwithstanding the political landscape. Mr. Kelvin Chan Weng Hoong is now in a happier place, holding hands with his beloved mom, that he missed so dearly. His third brother from Muar, Chan Weng Joo, drove out to settle his cremation and autopsy, where he was Covid-19 negative.

Kelvin Chan would have been 53 years of age this coming March 2021

May you rest in peace, brother Chan. I shall miss our frequent calls on business, politics and Atomy. Thanks for making me an admin in 2 of your channels, especially Food, Beverage and Movies channel, where you were a founder, that is now very active with participants, posting funny movies, ads, messages, and etc. Now, I know you love watching Netflix and Astro, to unwind from the stress at work. RIP brother Chan. You deserve better than this.

[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 😍😎😁

Finally, stay safe, stay happy at home in this pandemic. In a nutshell, strive to be happy! Take care.

It's Christmas Eve Today!

Now, it's that time of the year again for a yuletide season and Jesus is the reason for the season! It's Christmas eve today. Tomorrow, we will treat the family to a simple Western lunch somewhere. Since it is still MCO here, in Malaysia, we did not go to Genting Highlands as we used to in every Christmas time. So, to stay safe, we decided to stay at home here in Penang. It's never boring for me, because I shall have sometime to do daily.

Below is my certificate of completing a Social Media Management course from Coursera that was sponsored by MDEC.

So, you see, my days are pretty preoccupied with online learning and marketing of Atomy while doing some homework for the test and quizes.

Below is a picture of my Maybank AMEX premier card for Tesco RM 50 voucher that arrived yesterday, in time for my Christmas shopping!

Finally, have a lovely Christmas Eve dinner and Christmas lunch with your loved ones and pamper them while they are still alive! Below is my final picture of Christmas Eve greeting with splendid message and composition.

Stay safe and stay at home, people. Always wear a mask when going out to public places.
