Translator at Work
You already know I work from home. Now let me tell you what it is that I actually do inside my home-office daily, rain or shine, night or day...
As a freelance copywriter, my work mainly consists of writing copies for clients. Copies can come in many forms be it a newsletter, a print ad, a brochure and so on. That is my main job. Aside from that the other thing I do almost daily is translate documents from English to Malay or vice versa. Translation forms a pretty huge chunk of my workload and the jobs appear inside my Inbox more often compared to copywriting and editing.

Translation forms a pretty huge chunk of my workload and the jobs appear inside my Inbox more often compared to copywriting and editing.
So depending on my workload, working from home at my own pace and time can be extremely fun especially when there's not much for me to do. That's when I get to kick back and spend more time blogging or laze around dropping EC.
Otherwise, you'll find me immerse for days on end in a new translation job that sometimes gets me thinking hard; finding the perfect word...
or panicking when I'm on a ridiculous deadline!
Most days however will find me pretty much content to be where I am right now; being my own boss and working from home on my copywriting and translation jobs. Coffee is always in abundance and my fluffy cats give me the inspiration I need to churn out copy after copy so what more could I ask for?
Speaking of work, I recently registered with Translia, which is an innovative translation service. Offering translators like me a unique new platform to collaborate with other translators and deliver translations in a speedy efficient manner, this program is a must-see for all translators!
I've already registered (FREE) with them a few months back but I've been too occupied with my own clients so I have not checked in with them for quite some time. Plus, I forgot my password! Anyway, they recently sent me an email saying work is aplenty so maybe I'll look into this site again. You can never earn too much for freelancers like me so any money-making opportunity is always welcomed. Will I see you there?

Dear Mariuca,
Thanks for visiting and commenting on little Elisabet's cat-bite-wound. She's fine. The swelling has gone down. But I am not sure that she has learnt her lesson; she is still making life difficult for Calle Cat by wanting to pick him up as if he were a rag-doll. (There ie a breed of cats called "ragdoll" that may put up with that kind of treatment, but Calle is definitely not one of them!")
It was nice to see you; to see what you look like! You lookvery nice.
I am not surprised to learn that you work as a copy-writer and do a lot of translation. Your texts are always well-written and interesting.
Thank you for you kind words of moral support while my modem was misbehaving. Hope I can participate in "Fluffy Friday"the day after tomorrow.
Best wishes and hugs,
Anna
Hmm.. Maybe I should get into this business of translating stuff! :-D
OMG. I can't freakin wait to be my own boss again!!
On the other hand, it's nice to have a couple of :-$ :-$ on the side.. :)
You look oh so pretty Marzie! :) Not at all stressed out like Me!! :'( :'(
meow! the translator is pretty! :* :* :*
Olla marzie, happy thursday : )
Whoaho! I see you in action - gaya2 manja cute gitew.. :-D :-D :-D
Gaya muka panik dekat dateline tapi rambut tetap maintain siap ada highlight lepas rebonding. :-D :-D :-D
i hope one day i can hav my own homey internet sanctuary. :'( :'( :'( :'(
Aunty Marzie, what happened to Fluffy Friday? My post is out but got no McLinky.
No FF this week dearie?
Pebbles.. am asking Aunt GP the same question… lol.. I think she forgot today is Friday..hehehe
Hello Marzie! Interesting that you chose to reveal your daily routine on the kittycats blog! ;)
Regarding Entrecard, (Suddenly all "DROPPERS" are on the defensive) if I could have found a way to leave this comment on "Cornyman" Martin's blog I would have... his page just lies there... I left it loading from 9pm to 9:30 and the comment box still wouldn't open up!
Martin, I go online via dialup and use one of those "power" internet accelerators that is "all cache, all the time" - I've cleared out and renewed about 50 of the blogs I regularly visit, but it is a tedious process itself, moreso than dropping, with some sites at 28.8 taking almost 15 minutes to load! (and CornyManMartin's STILL LOADING at 33 minutes!)
@LAINY: I often leave comments or say hello via tagboard or C-Box when a blog has those features, as they seem to refresh when the templates load. I agree with you - it's a great way to not only show you've beenthere, but contribute to another's blog!
@FitnessDiva: I'm with you!
UPDATE: The controversial CornyMan has put up a new blog post which I WAS able to leave my comment on!
Yeay!!
I need to cut my hair too.. but so lazy!!
Yelah.. mmg can take via webcam..hehe.. but MF no webcam…hehehe… next lappy must have webcam.. shh.. don’t let MF hear.. wait she merajuk..lol!
Can can.. I can see the kaler.. very nicely done!! Yeay
Hahha. Yelah.. so many different expression..lol!
cantek rambuuut!!! :) dah siap sedia for the reunion lah ni.. and tak nampak F langsung lah you!! dah SW! Yayyyy!!
hahahaha.. your panic face looks like my oh-no-i-want-to-eat-but-shouldn't look!! LOL! :) :)
Aiyyooo, how can Aunty Marzie forget la, I was up till the wee hours waiting for her FF la. Aunty LJ, you also waited?
Coming Pebbles,coming!!!!!
Yay, finally :D
Hahaha.. Yelah Pebbles.. though I waited till 2am only.. then I slept.. woke up still no FF.. Aunty GP.. terforget kot..loL!
Hello Marzie, you ni comel lah! Good for you kerja sendiri and becoming your old boss. In fact , that is my dream - to be my own boss, hopefully one day it will work on me too, whether in Marang or in KL, to get more students to teach (tuition), to do my MLM etc and become successful. At the moment still take boleh hidup if I depend on all these since I am not in KL, there I think i can do wonders.
I am so glad you have achieved this far, seriously working on your own and becoming your own boss and it really harvest quite a steady income I think, good for you and for this "Congratulations" . Oh! earlier at your other blog you mentioned going for CNY celebration, since I wrote to long there dok risau my niece forgot to wish you happy holiday and enjoy yourself with B.
"Cong Xi Fatt Choi" by the way it is coming to Tiger year, and I am a Tiger lah!
Also "Happy Valentine's day" and hope you and B will be having a candle light dinner together.
hugzzz :) ;) 8-) :* :* :* :* :*
Imagine, now nak continue to cook my sambal tumis, maybe one day I put up a post of some recipes, and teach you some nice recipes too especially my late mum's rendang, sangat special and very yummy!
