Mawi & Ekin - the Impact to Tudung seller

First of all, congratulations to Mawi and Ekin on their wedding. 20th December 2008 will be 'One Sweet Day' for the couple. Wish them all the best and 'semoga kekal ke anak cucu'.

Since they become a couple, everybody are hunting for their 'hot and sensational news'. No matter what they do or what they said, it becomes a front page topic for some tabloid.

Ekin has built up her own reputation as a ratu tudung (queen of scarf) since she put it on.. Another phenomenon created same as what happened to Mawi, popular as "Raja sms" before. The new tudung style named after Ikin 's name becoming so famous just before she get married.

I just made a quick search on Yahoo and Google and I this is the results..

Results 1 - 10 of about 33,200 for tudung ekin. (0.06 seconds) - google 23 December 2008, 6.21pm.

Results 1 - 10 of 78,600 for tudung ekin - 0.49 sec - Yahoo.co.uk 23 December 2008, 6.23pm.

Honestly, me as a tudung seller don't want to loose the opportunity of this golden moment that might comes once in every 5 years? (Malaysian was hit by tudung Siti and tudung bawal Dato' K , couple years before).

The craziness of Tudung Ekin might loose the popularity in another year. Many patterns, style or even material produced as the version of Tudung Ikin.

Do you fancy any?

Unpublished art material

This is among my unpublished and uncompleted artwork from my collection.

It is quite hard for me to finish my painting especially when I am doing watercolors or oil.

But painting is my passion. It is kind of expression. It is my world.

I will put more effort to produce extraordinary painting in the future. Hope can get a masterpiece created...

Part time money - I work on it through...

Triond has paid me couple times as I published my own photos in their website. This is what I did as 'killing two birds with one stone'. Photography is my hobby. I really enjoy snap picture of anything - from scenery, landscape, human, nature, objects and even any hot photo

If you feel frustrated by saying, " I still can't make money online, not a single cent generated from the internet". "I've bought lots of ebooks", "I've learnt from the expert", "I've spent lots of time studied about internet marketing".. bla.. bla...
Triond can be an easy way to make money online. Maybe it is not much if I show you the screenshot (few cents paid monthly). My payment is increasing every month, since I give more focus and effort for uploading and promoting the picture.

Every effort has its rewards

Between eBay.com.my and Lelong.com.my

..It is 2.44am, but I'm still awake. Just packed 2 parcels for my Lelong customers. Thank to Allah coz I'm still breathing under the waves of slow world's economy activity.

Tomorrow I got to go to Bukit Gambir for the flee market.. as usual with tudung s. Sometimes I'm a bit rumbling with the conflict to stick just with online business.. but on the other hand, offline business is still not bad for me when parents are busy with the schools preparation and waiting for end of the month to get their salary. Still I can manage few ringgits for myself some sellers didn't get what they are expected. . Even my earning is not as much as before, at least I got my daily wages.

on my Lelong

Back with online biz, Lelong has its own magnet for Malaysian, rather than eBay.com.my which is not popular yet. Most of my physical products bought through Lelong. eBay? hmm.. mostly are overseas buyer.

Honestly I prefer to eBay which is easier to manage, in term of relist item, end auction, confirm payment, sell similar item, sold item and many more. However, the demand push me to stick to Lelong. But to play safe and to spread over my products, almost similar listing can be found on my ebay.com.my and lelong.com.my.

Hope sellers out there can share how they manage with this situation as sometimes I stucked with 'wise decision' to save time or to get more exposure..

I'm tired.. got to sleep.

What you will do ....???

..... when you feel too lazy to start something, or too tired, or just dunno where to start your newly given task,.....

What you'll do?
