May is certainly a very busy month for me. A lot of new blogging campaigns have come in this month and the kids are having their examinations this month. Even though I do have a monthly target and yearly goals I’ve decided to create a May Bucket List to push myself further this month.

I feel that it is important that we move beyond our comfort zone and challenge ourselves to reach higher heights. Even though nearly half of May is over I still there are things which I can do in the remaining 2 weeks of May.

1. Learn how to use a new animation software ~ Manga Studio 5.0

2. Bake at least twice a week so that I can use up all the Whipped cream in the fridge.

3. Climb the stairs daily or twice daily if possible. Am very stagnant in my weight lost attempt and I know it has to do with the fact that I am not moving about enough for the past few months.

4. Finish all the new books that I have for review before taking on any new books.

5. Schedule and plan for play dates for the kids in the upcoming June holidays. They are having 1 whole month of holidays!!

Do you have a May Bucket List?

What is on that list?

Writer’s Workshop- You Never Knew

The internet has certainly revolutionize our world since it was rapidly developed in the 1980s-1990s. I remember back in the old days I was mainly on the internet to check my e-mails, research for material needs in writing assignments and chat via ICQ to R. The first e-mail account I had back then was on Hotmail which I do occasionally use now and then and started my first blog on blogger. Things and the way internet is being used has certainly changed dramatically since then.

It has been a fun and exciting adventure being on the internet. There were so many sites which I could check out and lots to learn about. Problogger and Simplemom were among the sites which I used to visit frequently. Back then I found their sites very informative and it sparked off my interest in creating my own space here in cyberspace.

As I went about deciding on how to create my space. I consulted sites like Hongkiat and Noupe for design inspiration and help with the more technical aspects of blogging. I still visit these sites whenever I need some creative inspiration and they do have gems of information in their blogs.

These days I read more posts from other mommy bloggers from SMB and also a wider variety of sites/blogs to fuel my passions in food and photography.
