[Videos] Car Tires Replacement Service in Penang, Western Food, Mooncakes, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, etc.

This video showcases the vlogger's hunt for the Best Car Tyres Replacement Service in Penang. Check it out. 💥💦💖

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival. Now is the time to savor moon cakes that come in intricately designed boxes for 2 pieces or 4 pieces of moon cakes purchase. In the above video, I was having take-away and dined at Little Nonya, Queensbay Mall. Then it was time for some moon cakes shopping. Here in Penang, there is no free sampling, unlike those in Singapore.

Wikipedia defines The Mid-Autumn Festival, (simplified Chinese: 中秋节; traditional Chinese: 中秋節), also known as Moon Festival or Mooncake Festival, is a traditional Chinese festival celebrated by China and many East and Southeast Asian people under the influence of China. It is the second-most important holiday after Chinese New Year with a history dating back over 3,000 years, when the Emperor of China worshipped the moon for bountiful harvests.

Above is a group of pictures taken from my Instagram of still photos and a short video combined. See my moon cakes hunting for the perfect box and delicious moon cakes of nuts and lotus seed with less sugar and without egg yolk, for fewer calories.

In today's Saturday's blessings, "May you have a day full of God's love and blessings." As today is a weekend, I can rest and write this blog post.

For the above Saturday's instagram pictures, here's to wishing you "Happy Saturday Blessings - May the Sweetness of God's Grace touch and bless you in a special way."

That's it for this week's post. Stay safe, stay healthy and most of all, stay HAPPY!

[Videos] My Atomy Order, Mr. Koo Tonic Soup, Musical Performances, etc.

Above is my recent order of Atomy products; consisting of Atomy Absolute Cell Active of 6 pieces. Plus 2 nice baby-pink boxes of mooncakes with 4 flavours, 2 boxes of Puer Tea and Absolute Spot Out Cream for my business partner, due to advance aging. Check out the cool video above.

This video above was taken before the pandemic, during happier times, where people could roam around freely without wearing a mask nor fear of contracting Covid-19. It was taken during a performance by Caucasians, for obvious reasons, as it was an international musical entertainment during our short holidays.

The afore video was shot at Gurney Hall in Gurney Plaza, a premier shopping mall in Penang. See the healthy food by Mr. Koo tonic (a medicinal substance taken to give a feeling of vigour or well-being) soup. Apparently the herbs and chicken drumstick are double-boiled to infuse the flavors into the water to become delicious soup.

Here is a Sunday Blessings of a nice Insta picture.

Happy Mid Autumn Festival. One can only order at the most 2 boxes of mooncakes each. It has cappucino, low sugar lotus seed, pandan and lotus seed with an egg yolk flavors. I purchased 2 boxes to give to my mom and church friend, and also to myself. It is freshly made with care in Malaysia, with quality control. Each box is about RM 83, which is almost double that in the market. But for the convenience of delivering right to my place, I don't mind paying premium price for this.

Here is a snapshot of the Atomy Absolute Cellactive set,retailing for RM 880. The market price for similar products using SK-II or other branded cosmetics would have been in the range of RM2k or more. But at Atomy, it is only RM 880, which is a great bargain. As an agent for Atomy, you can contact me at 0111-6694988 with free membership, free registration, no monthly minimum order, no monthly maintenance and no nothing. Just spend using your Atomy e-commerce shopping mall platform to earn cash back.

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.

My Half-day Christmas Shopping in Queensbay Mall, Penang on 12.12.2020

I am relieved that my Youtube is finally working again. Now I am more cautious what I put into the channel, clips and such. It is not easy to make a video that takes hours to complete from shooting to editing and uploading. This week, I have to concentrate on MDEC courses and bidding to show my commitment. They are the paymasters, hopefully. Whoever works, will earn. As simple as that. Those who refuse to lift a finger will go hungry, as written in the book of Proverbs.

Below are some pictures from my Instagram account that you can click on the > icon to swipe left. These are few of the pictures used in the video above.

As I get to use ClipArt for free as a reviewer for 1 year, and it expires on November 2021, I will take the opportunity to showcase some of these copyright free images as far as I am concerned:

Life itself is stressful. So, let's put some love and humor into our Good Morning message with positive vibes like the music of 'Limbo Rock' below:

It is our Heavenly Father who created music; with songs of praises to worship Him. God will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with His love and He will rejoice over you with singing!

That's it for this week's post and I hope that you will stay safe at home and always wear a mask in public place. Peace!
