Having a Nintendo DS does not limit one to only playing games on it, but also learning and reading on it. For Enid Byton fans out there, you can read one of her famous series ‘Faraway trees stories’ right from your DS! ( another selling point for you kids out there to get your parents to buy a Nintendo DS :) )

Only… it is a little bit more fun and without the bulkiness of a book. The collection contains six books – The Enchanted Wood, The Magic Faraway Tree, The Folk of the Faraway Tree, Silky and the Rainbow Feather, Melody and the Enchanted Harp and and Petal and the Eternal Bloom. They are interactive where you can click on links for pictures of characters and also sound effects. Collect mushrooms, flowers, feathers and musical notes as you read through to unlock bonuses and secrets. There are even progress tracker for the parents to check how much their kids have read and quizzes about the stories to see how much the kids understand and remember.

We were doing our weekly hamster cage cleaning – vacumming, washing, spray disinfectant, add fresh wood shavings and dry grass, etc – when I thought about robotic pets. You can enjoy all the cuteness of a pet without the extra chores. :D

Sega has a couple of collections of robotic cute rodents that I’d love to have.

But they are mainly sold in Japan. Shucks!

However… fortunately for us the unfortunates who aren’t living in Japan, we still can still order these cute robotic pets through strapya-w0rld.com. :)

Well, real pets are way better in my opinion, but for those who has allergies or living with those who have, or simply do not have the time to care for a real pet. Robotic pet like these is a great way to enjoy the cuteness of a pet without the hassle.

Thinking about getting a hamster?

I am currently looking for a new fitness equipment for our hamster – a bigger running wheel, an exercise ball or a exercise car. We Photobuckethave been having our pet hamster for some months now. Hamsters make great pets because they are extremely cute, funny and taking care of a hamster isn’t really difficult. Well, if you buy a pair of hamsters, you may have a fast growing population of hamsters problem in your hands if you are not careful. :)

Anyhow, if you are thinking about getting a hamster there is a website that you may want to visit to learn all you may need to know about hamsters – theanimalfiles.com. I find the information they provide is invaluable.

When you are an insurance agent, you need life insurance leads and good people skills. If you are a photographer you have to have sound knowledge of photography, good photography instruments. But in cafe world, all you need is a computer and an internet connection to become a cafe owner. :D Hah…. if only life is that easy huh? :)

Got to go… salads are ready. Need to serve them quick before they get spoilt!
