Let your car pay for itself.

Having a car is expensive. Nearly everyone I know, who owns a car got it through loan. Which means, a certain amount of money will be taken out of your monthly paycheck to pay off your car debt. Not to mention money for weekly gas or petrol, yearly insurance and also for the regular maintenance check to make sure that the car is in good condition. Although a car gives you a little bit of convenience and traveling comfort, it sure sucks the money out of your wallet fast.

Now, if you have a car that needs to be paid for monthly and you don't mind to display advertisements on your car, you may want to know about streetvertisement.com because they have a way to help you with your car payments. "How can I Lower my car payment with a Streetvertisement?" you ask? Well, streetvertisement helps connect advertisers and car owners/drivers.

All you have to do is list your vehicle, include a picture of your vehicle and list where you would be displaying the advertisement and how much you would ask to advertise for a month - say $100/month, $150/month, and so on. Advertisers will browse the available vehicles listed and they will choose the vehicles and then will contact the owners. Once both parties agree, advertisement put in place, the car owners will be paid monthly as per agreement.

Street advertising is rather a brilliant idea I must say. You gain more exposures this way.We've got two of our cars sold rather quickly through displaying ads stating that the cars were for sale.

Anyhow, if you are interested to display ads on your car, you better list your car on the site as soon as possible for it is free to add for now. After they've got 250 cars on the site they will start to charge. So be quick.

Multiplayer billiard online game.

Online multiplayer games can indeed be very addictive. Why wouldn't they be? They are a lot of fun. You can play with friends from all over the globe. Although most of the time you would only find those role playing fantasy games, shooting games etc, but there are more and more variety of online multiplayer games available now.


For those who enjoy playing billiard, now they can play the game online with their friends. Go to http://www.8c1.net to play for free. I've tried a bit (though I am more of the RPG type of gamer) just to see how fast the site is. Loads up pretty quickly, even with my rather slow portable web stick internet connection. Most likely it would be a breeze to load for adsl users.

Have fun playing!

Elefánt ház of Budapest zoo.

The Budapest állatkert or zoo is one of my favourite places in Budapest. The zoo is well maintained and the architecture is beautiful.




This here is called the Elephant house located within the zoo itself. Built in 1912 by Kornél Neuschloss.At first glance, with the dome shaped roofs and the single minaret it does look like a mosque.

Eastern European women and red hair.

The other day, when I was shopping for some toiletries I passed by the hair product section and saw the hair dyes on display. Grabbed a box of Garnier hair dye just out of whim and because it was on sale :P . The first and last time I dyed my hair was when I was 15.

I haven't used it yet. Not sure whether I really should when I think again about it. So I browsed about hair dyes. About how safe it is to topics about Hungarian women choice of hair colours. When I came upon a blog of another foreigner in Hungary writing about how she find it strange to see so many Hungarian women with red hair. Strange enough, it was exactly what I thought so many times before when I encounter Hungarian ladies with various shade of red hair. Some nice, some are simply strange. (Like clownish sort of red). Then I read a forum where someone was asking about why middle aged Polish women seem to love to dye their hair red. So perhaps there is something about red hair and Eastern European at the moment? But then again it has been a rather popular colour it seems for years now. Even before I came to Hungary nearly 3 years ago since a relative who was 18 at that time came to visit us in Malaysia with her hair dyed reddish (told me it was the same colour as her mother's hair. Go figure).

I didn't go for red though. I took the blondest shade I saw on the shelf. Because my hair is real black so the end result should be brownish as stated on the box itself. But then again, after reading about all those hair dye disasters, I think I'd not dye my hair. Or at least not by myself. Don't want to end up getting green hair or worst, I may end up having to buy hair loss products.
Should just go down to the nearest salon and do it if I really want to.

Exercise with your toddler.

Spending time playing with my daughter can be considered one of the best fat burners around. :) She seems to have an unlimited pool of energy to burn. I feel that I am rather unfit at times that I simply could not catch up with her.

Though there are some parents who thought they are not exercising enough when they are with their kids. You feel even if you move a lot with your child yet you don't get to the real exercise with results that you want. If you feel that way too, perhaps you would like to try out the award winning dvd, "Get fit together".



There are about 3 workout programs available: Cardio, Toning and Abs, or Cardio, Toning and Abs. All of which your kids can participate.

Find out more about the DVD on it's website : momandtotfitness.com.
