I went to one of the smaller shopping complexes near my home earlier this evening and they were having a display of various items for sale from shoes to digital cameras to something called Dempo Snow [do they work?] to bling blings and of course, as you can see in this post, FLOWERS.

I love flowers and even dream of owning a rose garden but I don’t have the time nor the mood for it. I do have enough space for flowers in my garden but flowers really need lots of time to nurture and I could ill afford them at this point.

Anyway, I took the opportunity to shoot these photos with my iPhone. See, I took ten shots and six of them are good enough for web publishing. I am sure that if I have used my Nokia E61i, most of the photos would not turn out well enough.

Question: Should I upgrade to Nokia E71 with 3.2MP built-in camera with flash?

As you can see from this series of photos, having a good product is one thing, presentation is another. I love the way that these flowers were displayed. Each plant has sufficient space to grow. Even in presenting something for sale, one needs to be creative.

You wouldn’t know it, but these flowers are all artificial flowers. I wonder who would fork out RM50 – RM100 per plant just to display these at home. Ah… I know; people who love flowers but are not willing to spend time planting, watering and taking care of them. People like me, except that I will never buy fake flowers! Hmmm come to think of it, I will never buy real flowers too. LOL

A few weeks ago, Maybank called me up and asked me if I wanted a credit card. I didn’t have to fill up an application form or show any proof of income. How would they know that I would be able to handle another credit card? Oh, I forget. Banks target those with poor credit. LOL

They literally forced one upon me. When I requested to read their terms and conditions first, the lady told me that there are no terms and conditions at all. I did not have to pay an annual fee and neither is there a minimum spending per month to qualify for the free card.

I was told that I could choose to activate the card, or not, when they courier it to me. So I said fine. Send it over and I will decide. Little did I know that they would include this credit card in my Maybank2u account and the card came activated already. Anyway, I accepted it since it’s free and I don’t lose anything if I settle my credit card balance at the end of the month.

When I told my friend that Maybank called me up, he cautioned that it may be a phishing call and that I may have leaked out my personal or financial information through the phone. Geee, gave me a scare only But now that the card is here, it confirms that the phone call I received from Maybankard was legitimate.

Still, I think it is bad business practice for them to access my internet banking account to include this credit card in the account. So, who wants to go shopping?
