Nope, not for me though.. It darkens my whole house instead.. lol=D I dun like the feeling of being in the dark when it's day time.. Furthermore, with the curtains drawn, i wont be able to know if it's morning or night if i dun have a clock by my bed.. lol=D

When i was a kid, my mom used to have curtains in my room.. BUt as we grow older, she took away the curtains as it's more like troublesome especially when cleaning up the house.. haha=D

PLus, my windows in the room is quite small and there isn't a need for curtains actually.. hehe^_^ happy


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2214)   ranked 490 out of 35,005 in people  5 months ago

well, you are a man and i expected it! only few men really appreciates curtains i think...but in my case, its my husband who influenced me in putting curtains in our house...because that's what he see from her mom! actually most of our curtains came from his mom! hehehelol


myLot reputation of 97/100. kun2349 (7200)   ranked 1,077 out of 35,005 in people  5 months ago

It's not that i dun appreciate curtains, but i have no use for my home at all.. hehe^_^ My house is too small, and with the usage of curtains, it will only make the whole house even darker.. haha=D

I have seen houses with curtains and they are indeed nice.. However in the day, most ple will be drawing up their curtains and so, there's no point in having a nice one.. haha=D UNless, one is living in big house, with those tall windows and ceilings, having a curtain is just like having a nice scenary within the house.. haha=D

It's good that u have yourself a husband whom appreciates curtains just like u^_^ hehe thumbup BUt is the curtain being passed down by his mom too?? hehe


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2214)   ranked 490 out of 35,005 in people  5 months ago

actually the curtains she's giving are always new and when we go for a vacation to visit her, i always tell her our plans of going there months before and what color of curtain i like this time so that she can go to the sewer and let her sew a custom one to give me...hehehe and i think that's her happiness to give something to us that we can use in the house...hehehe
as for me, i don't buy curtains coz i think its expensive and as you know i am always contented with what i already have and i will just get another if i badly needed it...


myLot reputation of 97/100. kun2349 (7200)   ranked 1,077 out of 35,005 in people  5 months ago

lol=D Are the curtains being made over at his mom's side alot cheaper?? hehe^_^ All i know is that, custom made curtains are not as cheap as those being sold, because of the exact measurements etc.. hehe^_^

PLus, it's quite heavy to be carrying the curtains around if there's no transport shocked Another virtue of yours i have realised, u are frugal and dun spend unneccessarily.. haha=D thumbup


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2214)   ranked 490 out of 35,005 in people  5 months ago

hehehe...its because i don't have much to spend...i always have to stick with the budget or else i will just get some trouble thinking where to get money...my husband's salary is not as big as the others, his income is fixed and just enough for us but i'm glad that i can still manage to give some assistance to my brother and parents sometimes...even just a small amount...

well back to curtains...its not that cheap that's why i don't buy or get a custom one my own...hehehe, but the curtains i am using is not the type of curtain you are thinking...hehehew00t the one that i am using are light fabric materials only, not like those curtains in the hotels...its just a simple fabrics and that cost not too much...what is expensive is the service of the sewer and of course if the curtains requires bigger amount of fabric to be use then of course its additional amount also...


myLot reputation of 97/100. kun2349 (7200)   ranked 1,077 out of 35,005 in people  5 months ago

Of course one is not using the type of curtains hotels are using.. BEcause those belongs to good materials and yet it's nice.. haha=D For normal homes, any other ordinary cloths will do, as long as it can keep the sunlight out.. haha=D I guess your windows are quite small too, if not, u are not making full length curtains and thus it's cheaper^_^ cool

Well, be it fixed income or not, at least u are thinking in his shoes, and u are helping him to save as well^_^ PLus, instead of idling at home, u are also looking for alternative to earning at home and thus here u are at mylot.. hehe^_^

Maybe life might be slightly hard now, but i believe u and your husband will definitely have a much more comfortable life in the near future^_^ For god always bless the good ple^_^


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2214)   ranked 490 out of 35,005 in people  5 months ago

hehehe...and now i feel like i am a good wife...hehehe
well yes our windows are small coz our house is also small! hehehe
well thanks to you and i hope that we will really be blessed...

myLot reputation of 97/100. kun2349 (7200)   ranked 1,077 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

Electric fun?? I think i will die of shock instead!! haha=D I have ever tried experimenting with electricity though.. hehe^_^ It was actually quite fun, to allow a little current to pass by our body, making our muscles numb for a short while.. lol=D lol

Perverted right?? lol=D


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2214)   ranked 490 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

hahaha...is that true? you actually do that? hmmmm...if you do, i think you are quite like that! hehehe

i don't think i can stand that electric current on my body...hehehe coz even just a ground can shock me already...hehehe


myLot reputation of 97/100. kun2349 (7200)   ranked 1,077 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

lol=D I only tried it out of curiousity because of all the warnings from parents, teachers etc.. haha=D BUt when i'm watching tv, i see all those ple having electricity passing thru their body, they din die, instead, they become 'tann'.. lol=D I thought it was fun and thus i tried.. hehe rasprasp

A little electricity does not kil though, but it's not good if one is always exposed to it.. haha lol


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2214)   ranked 490 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

hahhaha...your such a naugthy kid and adventurous...but know what? sometimes curiosity can kill! hehehe what if you get a higher voltage? hehehe you might die...but anyway your just a kid then and really curious about things and want to try everything...sometimes tv is really not that good for children...


myLot reputation of 97/100. kun2349 (7200)   ranked 1,077 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

haha=D Well, i do get a little scared before trying that.. However, i decided to go ahead because i'm really really really curious, just like how a cat is trying to jump out of the bag.. lol=D lol

Lukcily for me, i survive the small shock, and it's fun.. But i definitely wont wanna try it again for i'm not always that lucky.. hehe^_^ Tv are definitely not good because there are always stunts, in order to attract viewers.. hehe^_^

Kids are only suitable for cartoon networks.. haha wub


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2214)   ranked 490 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

hehehe...well the experience of being shocked with current is not good...hehehe i experienced it but it was an accident...i just accidentally touch the wire of this mosquito killer...hehehe
but sometimes there are also cartoons that are not suitable for kids...so its better if parents are there to guide their children...


myLot reputation of 97/100. kun2349 (7200)   ranked 1,077 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

haha!! U are even more daring than me huh!! Just hearing the sound from the mosquito killer is enough to keep me away, and yet u dare to touch the wires in it?? lol=D Aint u scared that one mosquito might be flying in at the same time, just when u accidentally touch that? hehe shocked

Well, most cartoons are ok though, such as CASPER!! lol=D lolrasp


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2214)   ranked 490 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

hehehe...actually mosquito killer that time is new and i ask my husband if it will hurt if i touch the screen and he said why not try...and so i don't touch coz i'm afraid...but when i catch the mosquito i try to get it between the screen...and i thought that there's no more current there...but just my bad luck when i touch it, current is still there coz i didn't notice that my other hand is still pressing the button!cry

some cartoons...but some are not, like south park! hehehe


myLot reputation of 97/100. kun2349 (7200)   ranked 1,077 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

When u already have a mosquito killer, why will u still wanna catch the mosquito with your hands?? lol=D lol That's way to dangerous for me to try though because i believe the currents in it are quite strong, with so many wires.. hehe^_^

I do feel the pain for u, and those mosquitoes as well sad hehe

South park is quite ok except for those words they are using and their songs.. haha=D Other than that, all the characters in it are quite cute, especially kenny.. hehe


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2214)   ranked 490 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

but the mosquito killer that i am using is not directly plugged...it is actually rechargeable! and it looks like a badminton racket! and so i thought that it only have little current there...but i am wrong! heheh its current is enough to shocked me a while...hahha
yes the characters are cute but their ords are not but its funny! hehehe you like who? kenny? the orange one? me i like the one with green cap, i think he's kyle.


myLot reputation of 97/100. kun2349 (7200)   ranked 1,077 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

No wonder!! haha=D I have only been using that shape of 'killer' for houseflies instead, but never for mosquitoes.. hehe^_^ If i'm using that, i will prefer my hands to do that job as it's more convenient and easier.. haha=D lol

Kenny is the one with orange jacket, always covering his head with a hood.. hehe^_^ As for other characters, i'm not too familiar with them though.. BUt there's one character whom died in South park right? hehe


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2214)   ranked 490 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

hehehe.. i am using that before when its still new, i don't always use that for flies coz i don't see flies in the house...but lots of mosquitoes!angry

the one who always die in southpark is your favorite! hehehe


myLot reputation of 97/100. kun2349 (7200)   ranked 1,077 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

haha=D IN order to combat the problem of mosquitoes in the house, i will rather keep a lizard in my house so that they can eat up all those annoying mozzies.. lol=D

What!! angry How can they do that to my kenny!! wub lol


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2214)   ranked 490 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

nyee! i think lizards here is not good in killing those mosquitoes! hehehe i have many lizards here including gecko...but still mosquitoes are around! and i think they are wiser now...hehehe coz they are always staying low...so that lizards don't reach them! hehehe

don't worry, even if your kenny died, he always comes back on the next episodes! hehehelol


myLot reputation of 97/100. kun2349 (7200)   ranked 1,077 out of 35,005 in people  4 months ago

I guess it's hard to fully destroy mosquitoes because of their eggs being harvested in water while lizards dun go in there.. Maybe tadpoles might do the trick?? hehe lol

That's my kenny boy!! haha lol

For my bedroom, I actually prefer putting venetian blinds. But for the living room, it's prettier when you put curtains. It's much more elegant that way.:)


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2214)   ranked 490 out of 35,005 in people  5 months ago

yes i think, a curtain in the living room actually adds life and elegance there...but still depends on your choice of curtains to use...and sometimes curtains can actually set a mood!

Well my mom is very particular about keeping house neat,clean and attractive.And she always felt that curtains are must or else a house looks incomplete.Now that I stay at my hostel room I don't have any curtains in there.But recently I was thinking of buying curtains..But then I think I won't be able to maintain them and clean them regularly..So for now I am happy without the curtains.


myLot reputation of 99/100. ckyera (2214)   ranked 490 out of 35,005 in people  5 months ago

hi shames, i think your mom is really a very good housekeeper! i observed that in your other posts...well thumbs up for her!thumbup
yes its true, having curtains is also another work coz of course we should also maintain it coz it also become dirty and we don't like dirty curtains around...dust will live there!happy
thanks!

Yes, I have curtains at home, which are one of the major soft decoration of the home. Cleaning of curtains is often neglected, resulting in the dust, and harm to health, esp. in areas full of construction sites, and heavy in traffic. Different curtains represent the character of the hosts, and color changes of curtains might help adjust the feeling in different seasons.
