What to know before selling things online
Everybody wants to start their own business to earn some side income online like selling some clothes, phone accessories, cosmetics, bags, shoes et cetera. Before starting your own online store, there is something you should really know about.
I may not be an expert in this but what triggered me to write this post is because I am currently facing these problems so I think sharing my thoughts would help some of you who wants to start your own online business.
These are the vital steps I think is important to know.
1. KNOW YOUR PRODUCT
You would want to know every detail about your products, the materials, textures, quality and so on. So that you could answer your customers' questions about the products!
2. TEST ON YOUR PRODUCTS
No matter it is a shirt, dress, phone accessories or anything else, you MUST try to use the product yourself! You would want to be able to explain how it works out for YOU if your customers raise up questions about your products, or when they face some problems on using the products. Trust me, you don't want to answer your customers like "I am sorry I don't really know it works because I have never used it myself".
3. TAKE PICTURES OF THE PRODUCTS BY YOURSELF
TRY not to google for the similar product image.
Get a camera if it is possible. Phone camera could work too if it takes good quality photos. Sometimes customers will find out that the product they got in hand is nothing like the photos you showed online. If you're using your own photos, you don't have to be worried about the quality turns out bad, or copyright problem and you're being honest to your customers.
4. USE THE MAIL SERVICE THAT INCLUDE TRACE & TRACK
This is one of the issues that gets most complaints. Item that has been dispatched would went lost in the middle of the ocean. The worst thing is we can't even track where is it. Mailing service with tracking will definitely be more pricey than the normal post but imagine your parcels always went missing and you will end up losing more money of your product and by sending over a replacement. You can always include the postage to your products' price so that the customers will know they are paying for a safe and guaranteed service.
I hope those steps can help you to know some knowledge or improvement of your own online store.

Chinese New Year
Chinese New Year is on the first day of the First Moon of the Lunar Calendar. People were so looking forward to this every year (except for the adults) because they had to spend a lot why kids like me would only had to worry about what to wear during the first day, second day or on the third day.
For me, I had relatives ( A LOT OF THEM) came to my house for a visit as my grandparents are the eldest among their siblings. So it was like all of their siblings (oldsters)' children (my uncles & aunts) to come by to join the so called buffet party that we had every year.
As a child, my mother would bought me new shirts,dresses for Chinese New Year and she actually bought a lot of them that I usually got to wear for the first day of Chinese New Year until the 7th day. I forgot how long she hadn't bought me new outfits anymore and it was kinda hard for me to buy new shirt for the festival as they all can't be in a dark color (just to follow the rules of the CNY).
So I was asked to buy a red outfit but very difficult for me to find one too due to my fats and chubby face I needed to find something that actually won't quite reveal the "real shape" of mine because how annoying you couldn't have imagined when each of the relatives would tell me that I have put on weight. It's not like I don't accept the real shape of mine it's just too annoying for me to hear that.
So a day before (yes, A DAY BEFORE) the first day of CNY as it s the reunion dinner day, my brother and I dropped by the mall real quick for what I needed and what he needed and we only had around 30 minutes to finish everything and be home for the dinner. So I went to this Nichii brand store that I actually never purchased from them. I chose this red long high neck slit dress.
The slit is a lil too high so I had to wear a short pants inside. It was comfortable to wear though since it doesn't show my body size much but it is quite weird looking from the front because it would be just a piece of flat red cloth without any patterns so side-looking is actually still fine.
Yup, I guess my CNY was pretty good and today it's the 5th day already and the feelings, the crowds are fading. 10 more days to my real office job I hope everything goes well. I really appreciate if you're reading this.

Birthday Celebration Night @ The Chambers
It's not my birthday but it is my first time being invited to a formal birthday party which means everybody needed to be dressed up in formal.
It was in Georgetown, Penang.
The venue is Chambers Hotel.
The name is wow because for people like me who has never been to a formal birthday party before, is actually delighted and I still feel so lucky to be part of it.
It was my coursemate's birthday and yes she is coming from a rich family. *envy*
So, this is how the place looks like.
This is the table where they served me.
The party was in buffet style and food was so good that I forgot to take photos.
The waiters and waitress there are super polite and friendly, the services are perfect.
This was the outdoor.
The view is so nice and of course I didn't forget to ask my friend for help to take a bunch of pictures of me.
Lastly, photo with my bestie.
Thanks for reading.
See you again :) xo

1st Day in Adelaide, Australia
I know it is so common for people to visit Adelaide but somehow this was my first time going to a western country so I was kinda excited about it and feel like sharing it.
And here comes the interesting part. We went for a visit at Chocolate Factory !
Here is the link to their official website.>> Haigh's Chocolates
This pretty much sums up my first day of the trip.
| These are what I saw in the airport after landing. O.P.I is my favorite brand of nail polish and its booth like this rarely can be seen in Malaysia. |
| So this is how the Adelaide airport looks like. It's too beautiful. |
| Here is my cousin and I. It was freezing at the first day. Still don't know whether it was really cold or I just didn't get used of their weather yet. :) |
| And this was the car we were renting for the passed 7 days. |
I was feeling a little nausea and I vomited on the plane before landing. That makes me scared because I love travelling and this is the first time I'm sitting on a plane for like so long. So the scene I was imagining before reaching didn't happen as I thought :/
We checked in in a Serviced Apartment named R&R and it just feels like home because it had 2 stories and a super small garage which our rented car couldn't fix in easily. I forgot to take a picture of the apartment so these are the photos I grabbed from the internet and its kinda look like this?

| This is how the kitchen looked like. |
There are upstair but I couldn't find the most accurate photos so I'll just skip this part xoxo
So after checking in the apartment we were walking to a Vietnamese Restaurant for lunch.
| This $2.80 shop. It was kinda like Daiso in Malaysia. |
These are the food we were eating at the Vietnamese Restaurant.
I wasn't feeling good so I didn't eat much but watching my family eating them all.
| These are the people who were with me for the 7days trip. My grandma, 3 aunts and cousin. XD |
It's the Haigh's Chocolates Factory !
Haigh's Chocolates had like 100 years of history. There was this beautiful lady who explained everything like the histories, and the stores they're having right now. Cameras were not allowed inside the visiting of the process of making chocolates so I couldn't show more pics of that.
She gave us like chocolate tasting and their chocolates tasted amazingly tasty !!
After that she gave us a tour in the factory through a big piece of glasses.| Here are us in the room where she got us explanation and all. |
| *Drooling :P |
| Besides, I really loves the buildings, and weather over there it was so fascinating XD I wish I could just stay there as long as I could. |
And still I'm a newbie at writing blog so give me some time to make it better.
Thanks for reading.
Will be sharing the 2nd day soon.
xoxo
