This is good news to all Malaysians earning an income online via PayPal. They can now withdraw the money to their credit card, debit card and cards with the Visa or Mastercard logo. PayPal dreams come true for Malaysians from Wayne Liew and Sweet surrender confirms it.

I am using my VMI card for the moment and perhaps when I have more money accummulated in my PayPal, perhaps I may try it with my credit cards. I have paid USD25 for my Virtual Money Inc. debit card from USA sent from the Philippines. So far, I have made several withdrawals already without any problems, except for the 2 times my PayPal account was put on restricted limitation due to the VMI card. Anyway, the matter has been resolved now.

Last night, I watched Rush Hour 3 in Queensbay Mall’s cineplex. Director Brett Ratner returns to his element, offering a third fun, funny, and violent slapstick installment in the Rush Hour series. Rush Hour 3 sees Inspector Lee and Detective Carter back together again, trying to save the lives of a Chinese ambassador who may be on the brink of cracking open a massive organized crime syndicate called the Triads, the ambassador’s daughter, and a woman with a very dangerous secret. The biggest problem, however, is the return of somebody from Lee’s past with the potential to derail the otherwise stalwart Inspector. Most of this takes place in Paris, providing a different setting and a few opportunities to exploit cultural stereotypes that are new to the series.

The film is jam-packed with the wild, mildly provocative humor the series is known for, and the silly but entertaining martial-arts slapstick that is Mr. Chan’s trademark. Chris Tucker gives his best performance in the series, delivering a lot of comic punch and playing a nice complement to Chan’s sombre and serious Inspector Lee.

Some people have to slog hard to earn a little money monthly. The poor continues to be poor earning very little or none at all. The rich will be richer and it is a cycle. For me, earning money is not difficult with so many offers from PayPerPost nowadays. Whenever I am free from my current job, I will blog in my spare time. And the part time blogging brings in good income for me month after month. I guess this is God’s blessings in my life for more prosperity.

After a few outstation visits this week, I need a good break and rest at home. I just feel like snuggling up in bed under my silk comforter bought from China. It is so cozy that I makes me feel like stealing a nap now and then. The sleep of a diligent man is sweet as written in the book of Proverbs. And the silk comforter was an investment since I have more restful sleep now ever since I bought it during my trip to China last month.

Yesterday, I came back last night at around 9:00pm. We set off from KL in the afternoon at about 4:00pm and stopped by in Sungai Buloh at Baskin Robbins for some ice-cream. I had a scoop of green tea and another scoop of pistachio ice-cream. They were delicious and spoon-licking good. We went to three different places in KL before coming back. It drizzled a little on the way back while I was driving from Tapah to Ipoh where we had out dinner in Kenny Rogers in Jaya Jusco.

Blogger has just added a new feature on the dashboard. We can now upload videos to our blogs the same way we upload pictures. We no longer need to embed the codes from YouTube. Though I have not tried this yet, I think it is a nifty feature to use. Maybe one of these days, I might just upload my own videos of a stage performance taken in China that comes with the delicious Mongolian food buffet. Blogger only allows video uploads of not more than 100mb each time. Most formats are accepted. Have fun with your videos.

Yesterday, I called up telekoms for the number to Vistana Hotel and promptly called them as soon as I got the telephone number to book a room for two tonight. The booking has been confirmed. The rate was RM195 without breakfast. Vistana Hotel in Bayan Lepas has the same management as Traders Hotel (Formerly Shangrila Hotel) near KOMTAR. These hotels are catered more to guests on business trips. Now comes my weekend stay in a local hotel.

When I started blogging in July 2006, little did I dream of making more money online. It was just to update my blogs now and then and at that time pay to blog was never heard of. Never in my dreams did I think of making more money through my blogs. It was easy and fast. Just write a few posts here and there, with interims and you get your cash one month later. How easy can that get? So if you like to set up a wordpress blog, just email me. Otherwise, you can go to blogger.com to start a free blog that’s user friendly and fast to set up.

I am back from a trip to Tanah Merah since last night. We set off at around 10:00am in the morning yesterday and the trip took 5 hours to arrive in Tanah Merah. The road was winding and there are hardly any stops for food or the toilet. In fact the only 2 there were closed. Such bad facilities and services. Thank goodness the toilets were not locked. I think this is going to be my last time going to Kelantan by car. I would not mind if we take Firefly low cost aircraft there in future.
