How rich are you?

Find out here:

The Global Rich List.

I really like this idea.  So simple.  Show you what's your standing in the world's wealth and show you what you can do and the practical values you can create in someone else's life.  No emotional fluff, just straightforward business talk with a bit of conscience.  You judge with data and you decide what you wanna do about it.  Simple.

3 bookmarks sold!

Thanks Rubs and Sheryls :)

Sending grateful 'power' back to you guys.  Have a blessed Halloween :))

I've got 7 left if you still want em'!

Real Egyptian papyrus bookmarks - SOLD!

My parents got these while they travelled to Egypt couple of years back.  Some of them actually have hieroglyphs printed on them exactly according to your ABCs.  While the papyrus is 100% real, please don't quote me on the hieroglyphs - they only look like birds and bees to me and for the life of me, won't be able to prove their authenticity.

You should get this if:
1) You're not gonna go Egypt (looking at the current situation, not anytime soon eh?)
2) You don't know what's papyrus
3) You've been dog-earring your books
4) You've been dog-earring other people's books (shame on you!)
5) You wanna learn hieroglyphs
6) Christmas is coming, and you need to get small gifts for Facebook friends whom you meet but don't necessary subscribe to.  Or those who are in the 'Friends but...' circle in your Google+.  Hehe, I'M KIDDINNNNGGGG :P If you wanna give some Christmas cheer to everyone, it does make sense for you to get something small so that you still have a valid bank account after the celebration.  These bookmarks have a blank underside so you could write lovely heart-warming season greetings notes :)
6) Don't mind putting a small effort to help the unfortunate :)

I'm selling each for RM5, lemme know if you want one.  I have 10 different designs for you to choose from!

 

 

Thank you for supporting and just so you know, nope!  Not selling the book! :P

Gucci retro-squared sunnies.

These were bought in Australia, once upon a time.  Original and much-loved Guccis that come with really dark lenses that will definitely tone down any unwanted glare ;) Unfortunately, this time, these sunnies are not unisex, they're for ladies only.  Well of course, unless you could work it, I mean who's to say right?  It's a free and unexpected world.

Colour and design: Black pastic with the hallmark 'G' logo stamps in black metal on the each side, square rims
Condition: 7/10
Weight: 100-200gm
Price: RM50 + postage (please refer to postage price by Poslaju on the right side of this blog).

I'm sorry I don't have its original case with me anymore, but I've been keeping it scratch-free in a white YSL sunnies pouch (sounds familiar right?).  Please let me know if you are interested.  Be Italia's retro petro and email here for purchase ♤

Love, I suppose is the antidote to scepticism?

This project has been going good and am really appreciative of everyone who had purchased from this blog :)  Truly appreciate it.  But of course, I got some feedback from friends of friends who were a little sceptical about the idea.  A lot of questions - who owns this blog?  Who picks the charity?  How do we know if the money really goes there?  How do we know what happens to the money after it goes to the charity?  Et cetera.  Well of course, as with anything in this world - nothing is perfect.

But it's okay :) Am not planning to govern the world anyway, there's nothing I can do to convince you that I am not bogus.  And this effort is not bogus and the charities featured here are not bogus.  When you finally see what we do and finally believe that there could be a sliver of human hope that someone out there somewhere, is willing to do something for nothing, then maybe... maybe you can decide again then :) No rush okay?

Well, as I promised.  I try to be as transparent as possible about the proceeds from purchases here.  So I'm sharing some photos taken by my dear friend, Prestinne who donated some money for tickets sponsorship for the elderly blind to attend ' The Harmony of Two Worlds' charity event (Good Samaritan sponsored two! :)).  Well, good things come.  Period.  To those who wait, to those who are impatient, to those who are fortunate, to those who are less - to everyone.  Just believe that Good Things Do Come :)
