Little Moments that I Live for

The lotion dropped on my desk...it looks cute, so I drew a face by it :)

Life is not hard...but definitely not easy. I know that many of my friends feel the same...the amount of the work/tear that we've put in so that we can stay in United States. 

Whatever happens/happened, I can always get rid of my sadness very soon. Beautiful cloud, a sunflower by the street, funny shadow...etc, all these little things make me smile. 

好險有你

不論再怎麼保持樂觀開朗，有些時候還是忍不住的像個洩了氣的皮球。有的目標我也不想到處宣揚，如果你知道我在做什麼就好，不知道的問了我也不會講。這十年來我很努力的唸書與工作，我好累好累，卻找不到停歇的點。有的人喜歡在你背後插你一刀，沒關係，因為我的勤奮與天性是你怎樣也偷不走的。

感謝老公和親友的支持，這一路上走來，好險有你。

Lost Package from Gymboree.com

*Last updated 8/16/2013: Some nice customer lady that I contacted after this blog is posted, was helping me to resolve the issue. I've received an email from her said that I will receive the credit in 2 weeks. Let's hope that's the case. I will update the blog again once that actually happens.


I will never place an order with Gymboree.com. For me, the Gymboree.com is trying to push sole responsibility of package lost to the customer.

I have decided to write this blog because Gymboree.com doesn't seem wanting to work with me on this. I just google online, and I think there are people out there who had similar bad experience like me. Beware!

I placed an order Gymboree.com in early July, and the purchase was over $100. Gymboree.com used a cheap shipping method "Fedex Smallpost" that didn't actually deliver by Fedex...the process would be Gymboree > Fedex > USPS. The package doesn't required signature either.

Originally the tracking system showed it was going to be delivered on 7/9, and all the sudden it said 7/11. On 7/11 when online system shows it's delivered, there was NO package by our front door. We called Gymboree.com and they said I have to call USPS and then the credit card company if I really don't have the package.

We talked to few neighbors, called Fedex (of course they said they have no idea because they gave the package to USPS), and called USPS. We also waited for a few days before we contacted the credit card company because we were hoping the packages might be miss-delivered to somewhere else. Finally we called our credit card company, and the credit card company helped us to contact Gymboree.com.

Gymboree.com gave our credit card company the delivery confirmation and called it good. Although Gymboree.com has the tracking record shows that the package is delivered, there is no proof of the package that was actually delivered to the "CORRECT" address. Especially with an order that's over $100, I feel that Gymboree.com has the responsibility to insure the package in some way that they can file the lost package claim through Fedex or USPS, or they should at least request the delivery signature to make sure the package arrive where it should be.


DO NOT BUY! BEWARE GYMBOREE.COM! BAD COMPANY! NOT BUY BABY CLOTHES FROM GYMBOREE!

Sprinkler System Headache

After we moved in to our house in 2011, we hired some one to do our fence. They broke every possible sprinkler pipes around east side of our house. One USA Unit and I got to learn how to fix those by ourselves since it's too expensive to hire someone to do so. We got everything fixed in spring 2012. In spring 2013, we turned the system back on, and we noticed some area of grass was turning yellow...ugh..yes...2 out of the 8 systems were not working properly.

Fortunately, my dad stays with us so that he helped us to dig out the pipe when we were at work. We then trouble shot the problems together and got everything fixed again.

Dogs were really helpful while we were working, as usual!

Another Heaven 另一個天堂

The song, Another Heaven, from Leehom Wang & Jane Zhang is super cute.

"You bring me to another heaven, and it's more beautiful than I could imagine.
There's another dream and endless happiness in the heaven that we've created by hugs."



"是你帶我找到　另一個天堂　遠比想像中的更美我們懷抱裡的　這一個天堂　另一個夢想　有無限的快樂"
這首歌，也太可愛了吧！！

New Trent Chargepak NT600C Review

I am going out of town without One USA Unit at the end of August, so I need to keep my cellphone alive so that I can make phone call, and access internet and GPS. I searched online for a while and decided to get New Trent Chargepak NT600C.

It's $39.95 on Amazon (free shipping with prime). I like the fact that it has wall plug built in, and it comes with the micro cable that allows me to charge my HTC smartphone.

Crazy about Minions!

Yes, I'm CRAZY about MINIONs!

They are super cute. I really like Despicable Me 2. It was funny and cute!

One USA Unit for sure loves me very much :D He tried very hard to get me a McDonald's minion poster last night!!!
