I don't know, have you ever done something good..
And felt: "This makes me feel so great"?
Today, Alisha tried these Baby Rice Cakes for the first time..
And she loved them !!!!!
And it was so exciting for us, because of all the finger foods we've tried to give her, she's only ever stared at them ! LOL
(As oppose to the toys that she usually tries to eat. haha)
But anywho, she had 3 mini rice cakes within 15 minutes and I was so amazed.. and so was Lawrence :)
She kept chewing away and wanting more ! hehe
And so, as I was looking at the packet, I noticed a 'Feedback Hotline' where you could call and let them know what you thought of the product..
And thing is, I've never done this before..
I have never liked anything THAT much to want to call (LOL)...
Or hated anything THAT much either.. hahahaha
But I thought to myself: "why not?" :)
I called the hotline and a nice woman answered..
And I said:
"This is gonna sound a bit lame *laugh*, but my daughter is almost 1 years old, and she tried those mini rice cakes that you guys sell.. And she loved them!!!!!!"
And you should've heard the excitement in the woman's voice.. she was so happy that I called !
She said: "That's great to hear !!!!!!"
And I continued to say: "She ate 3 of them in 15 minutes... and I couldn't believe it.. Because we've been trying so hard to find a finger food that she would eat, so we were so glad when she ate them!"
And the woman replied with: "Thank you soooooo much for calling ! I'll pass that on to our marketing team !!!!!"
And it made me feel so good inside.
I know it sounds kinda lame, but that's the feeling I get when I help people...
Because my hubby works at a call centre, he knows what it's like to be given s*^^ CONSTANTLY...
So he thinks that the woman must have been VERY EXCITED that someone called to actually give NICE feedback !!! :)
This reminded me of a time when I was in high school..
I was in the library studying, and this girl asked her friend if she had a pen, but she said no...
And I turned to her (without even knowing who they were) and offered mine...
And they were really grateful..
And it made me feel so good.. lol..
It may have been a little gesture..
But sometimes, a little gesture does go a long way :)
But anywho, if you're wondering, the baby rice cakes that Alisha tried were:
Heinz Little Kids Mini Rice Cakes (ORIGINAL) :)
And here are pics of Alisha eating them.. LOL
From "I'm a lady!!!!" ....

to....
"These are so yummy!" hahahaha

And here are some other pictures (I've taken several over the last few days) :)
The first two are so cute.. hehe :)
Lawrence sat Alisha down on our bar stool..
And she looked really cute on it..
So I thought I'd take a couple pics !
Haha from comfy...

to... ONE HELL OF A RIDE !!!!! hahahaha

Here's me giving Alisha an arm wrestle two days ago. She won !!!! LOL

Here's Alisha smoking her rusk.. like a cigar ! haha

Oh, and we bought Alisha her first real "big toy" (lol), and she loves it !
It teaches her to stand.. and it has a little bear that jumps around, while singing n stuff. haha
Here is Alisha standing by the toy... nice and calm...

And here is Alisha dancing along to the toy... Take good notice of the blurry Alisha... hahahahahahaha

Oh, and here are two pics of Alisha about to go to sleep today :)
Yep, she sure does love covering her face. hahaha


Hope you enjoyed the pics !!!
But anywho, OMG, Alisha is turning 1 soon !!!!!!!
Her birthday is 5th June, if anyone is wondering :) lol
If Alisha had a Minti account, you could all send her virtual gifts. hahaha just kidding :)
Ok, too much Minti, my bum hurts. lol
Best be going... haha
Love ya's all..
Hope you have a great weekend !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All my love,
Thuy xox

Re: It feels GREAT to be nice !!!!! :)
she is so cute! I love reading your blogs, your always so upbeat and larger thatn life, and its a great attitude,really does put a smile on my miserable dial! I know what you men about small gestures. tho my first gesture, i was dirt poor, had no money and no food in the house, i had just spent my last 20 bucks on baby food for my son, and i was walking home and a lady asked if i had anymoney, her children were going to starve that night cause they had nothig. so i gave about a dollar fifty, (my change) and then walked home, and took out rice risotto, it was going to be my dinner spread over the next few nights, walked back and gave it to her. The look of disgust on her face. she took it, but i decided to watch for a while, aand she went and boought ciggys once she had taken enough money. So i starved the rest of the week, but i was willing to do it on good will. It makes me skepital now of who i give gestures to of course. To many nasty people out there...

Re: It feels GREAT to be nice !!!!! :)
Aww Alisha says thanks ! haha
Awww thanks Nat for that..
I'm so glad my blogs make you happy :)
You're so sweet, ya know :)
OMG I can't believe that happened to you..
I know EXACTLY what you mean though...
When I think back to one particular incident 1 and 1/2 years ago, I feel just like you did..
Before Lawrence and I had Alisha, we were on the way to the city..
And we noticed a pregnant mother broken down on the side of the road..
She said she didn't have money for fuel and was going to get a "jerry jan"..
So I offered my money (which was my UNIVERSITY LUNCH and FUEL MONEY)... and we exchanged numbers, so she could send me a money order, with the return of the money..
AND SHE NEVER DID..
I called her and she didn't even pick up...
Me and Lawrence got so annoyed after that, cuz I never even had to give my money away, but I did, out of the goodness of my own heart, and look what she did !
But I guess, it's like this, there are so many dodgy people out there, but if there's only like 10% of good people, then maybe it's worth treating those people good...
Becuz even if some people don't appreciate all the good that you do, you, in your heart, know that you have done the right thing, and are a good person :)
I know exactly how you feel though, Nat, must have sucked so much for you :(
Despite what happened, I do think that you are such a WONDERFUL person... And gestures like that will only be returned in future..
I believe in karma...
And I'm sure you'll get yours, for being the beautiful person you are :)
Love Thuy xox
