Don’t you just wish that your favorite store accepts credit card for the payment of your purchases? Especially when they go on sale. Tsk, tsk, tsk. However, as a consumer I do understand how a small store owner feels about credit card payments. Well, at times it does take a while for it to be settled by the credit card companies. Although there are companies like Total Merchandise Services that helps out small businesses in credit card processing but they are quite a few that gives great offers and services like free installation of the credit card processing equipment, giving out of advises on how to optimize credit card transactions for the benefit of your business and etc. Although, purchasing through credit cards is not always the “wise” way to go for a consumer like me, at times, it just becomes a necessity. So it will definitely an advantage for a business to accept credit cards, I mean we’ll just never know right?

I didn’t realize that Beauty Queens can be fired not until Donald Trump and the Miss California USA Organization fired the reigning Miss California Carrie Prejean.  Sheesh!  OMG Yahoo said she got fired because she was unwilling to fulfill her contract.  Talk about serious business.  From what I know most beauty queens get fired because of controversy, this is the first time that I’ve heard of someone being fired because of not fulfilling her responsibilities.  Like how hard is it to do your job right?  Tsk, tsk, tsk.

I watched Drag Me to Hell last week with Kristha (just Kristha because my so called other friends had changed their minds and decided not to show up that day… *sigh* i know it’s sad) after we played Badminton.  The movie was partly scary and funny.  But what really stuck in mind was how the movie ended.  My friend and I can’t decide on how we should feel.  Should we feel sorry for Christine Brown or fed her to the Larmya ourselves.  Imagine, after all that she went through she still ended up dead just because she missed to do one tiny thing… look into the envelope and check if the button was there.  I mean, she survived an attack in her car, dragged out of her car and got bitten by Mrs. Ganush (almost like kissed by Mrs. Ganush… eeewwww), endured the attacks of the Larmya and not to mention face her freaking future in-law who discriminate against farm girls and then just get dragged to hell in the end because of that freaking button.  So we were like, so which is the morale of the story?  Is it about us being nice and understanding towards the people around us (especially to those weird looking folks) or is us being an OC (meaning double checking everything is there before we act) in all that we do?  Kristha even said “Now, I know why she got hit in the head by the crucifix.”  And I was like “why?”.  She answered “It’s the way of the Lord to tell her that she’s stupid.”
