**So SORRY lah! I didn’t know my line takes a while to activate! Hope it works soon. **

Have you heard of U Mobile? No? It is that funny ads on TV like the girl who wants to get henna treatment for only one finger and refuse to pay for all 10 fingers. I like those ads, very funny and relevant. Right now, I am paying for some of the services I do not need. That’s why the ad from U Mobile caught my attention.

So, out of curiousity, I look up what U Mobile is. That’s where I found out that U Mobile is the new telco in town offering 018 number. I like number 8 so I bugged hubby to find out if it is possible for all of us to switch to U Mobile because with the package, we do get nicer deals like :

- free calls to U Mobile family and friends;

- 1 sen SMS with U Mobile users

- other unlimited mobile downloads including live TV. (offers end Dec 31 08)

- 10 free sms for every RM10 we use (for a limited time only)

and we found out that this is valid when if we switch to U Mobile with our existing number!

On the U Mobile website, The Korean CEO, Mr. Oh says “you call the shots”. That means, I get to call the shots. I got an idea and I did the unthinkable. I wrote to U Mobile to tell them I am a blogger and I want a number which I can use to display on my blog.

Come’ on, how many bloggers, except the Members of Parliament display their phone numbers online? So, I want to be the unique blogger whom my readers can call or sms. Isn’t that nice?

And guess what? They really give me a starter pack! On top of that, I also have some goodies for my readers. So, if you want a U Mobile prepaid starter pack, top up voucher or goodie bag, here’s what you can do:

1) SMS me at this number : 018-3695810

3) If you do not want to reveal your real name, it’s alright. Just give me a nickname so that I can identify and if you win, you claim the prize from U Mobile.

I guarantee your number is safe with me and it will not be revealed to anyone. And U Mobile will liaise direct with the winner for the collection of the prizes.

So, how’s the deal? You call the shots. You tell me what you want me to write. You get a prize in return. Of course, there are only three prizes, so first come first serve.

With the new policy where we can change our service provider without losing our old number, I am going to see how I can change my current service to U Mobile. I am tired of getting spammed with so many unwanted services from them. I just hope that U Mobile doesn’t spam me with unwanted services in all languages.

By the way, how many of you are U Mobile users? Any feedback on their services? I really like the idea of paying for only what I need instead of having a postpaid fee that I have to pay each month eventhough I hardly use my mobile phone.

If you SMS me within these two days and I pick the suggested blog topic to post, you will win :

FIVE PRIZES consisting of these:
U Mobile Goodie Bag and
U Mobile 018 Prepaid starter pack and
U Mobile 018 Prepaid top up voucher worth RM50

*sits back and keep fingers and toes crossed and hope some readers will layan me with a SMS. Put on pathetic look and wait…..*

The above photo was taken in 2005. My Christmas tree is 7 years old now. Bought it when Vincent was around in 2001. It was my first ever Christmas tree so there is some sentimental value attached to it. I can still recall how both hubby and I sneaked to the supermarket nearby and grabbed the tree, lights and some baubles home. We put up the tree without our three children’s knowledge and we surprised them one night, with the hall in darkness and the tree shining in the living room. It was sort of a payback for neglecting them while we were away at the hospital taking care of Vincent.

However, the tree is a bit too small. Now, all the kids are taller than the tree. So, I am thinking of getting a white Christmas tree. If we have pink or black Christmas trees, I would have bought one. But over here, there aren’t trees in pink or black. Only white, green and orange. Ewwss…orange tree?

I went to Tesco this morning and they are playing Christmas songs already. That got me humming along because I have been singing Christmas carols since September. Our choir practice started in September and by now, Christmas carols are ingrained in my mind already.

Sigh….I cannot make up my mind whether to give the Christmas tree I have now to others so that I can buy a new tree. Too much sentimental value attached to it because the tree is one of the few things that become my stepping stone in my journey to be a Christian.

So, let’s fast forward and I will consider it later. Hopefully, I can find some decent trees with bushy fake pines instead of those plasticky, pathetic looking ones at the stores.

By the way, I just bought a polarizer for my Nikon DSLR and took lots of carps photos the other day. Do you think my carp photos can make it to some Chinese New Year calendar or greeting cards? Greeting Cards are rare nowadays but hopefully they won’t become extinct one day. Luckily there are ecards nowadays and one can even insert video into those ecards.

Sigh….the flood alarm just went off again, at 1am. Hubby and eldest son now have to shift a car and two bikes (one very new one, bought just three days ago) to higher grounds. And our Naza is still in the workshop because they need to wait for the import of the module for the circuit (whatever that is) for the airbag.
