It’s our second visit to the university; the first was in December 2019 when we were there by invitation for a screening of the short films produced by undergraduates of the digital film production faculty. We were all…

SPM Is Finally Over!
Alycia’s sat for the last SPM paper (Economics) on Wednesday, 24 March 2021 after a month-long major exam. She and I can finally heave an euphoric sigh of relief that it’s all over after several postponements with almost the entire year away from school last year. I don’t even care how many As she will…
14 March 2021 ~ Random Updates
KL is still under a Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO) with strict SOPs in place. Everything is still pretty much the same — shops are all opened, the horrendous KL traffic jam is back and people are dining in restaurants just like the way it used to during pre-Covid19 days. However, hubby’s catering business is…
MCO Day 224 ~ Tuesday, 19 January 2021
Yesterday evening the MoE announced that the SPM Trials throughout the country will be cancelled. After being postponed several times, the government has finally decided to cancel the Trials as it it too risky for the students to go back to school in view of the wide spread Covid infection throughout the country. However, Alycia’s…

Alycia had a Zoom meeting with her teacher and classmates yesterday for the announcement on when the SPM Trials and actual SPM will be held. SPM Trials will be held in school next Wednesday for 10 days, after which the SPM exam will be held 2-3 weeks later, towards the end of Chinese New Year.…
CMCO Day 208 ~ Sunday, 3 January 2021
Alycia ordered some statement jewelry for herself from Taobao some time back and totally forgot about her order. When the parcel arrived yesterday, she had no frigging idea who the sender was until she opened the parcel. I can’t believe her choice of costume jewelry – the necklace and bracelet are chunky and totally attention…

Cass’ High School & Alycia’s Plan Next Year
So Cass is now officially a confirmed student at the high school of her choice. The school emailed Cass’ student ID to us two days ago. This number will be a bespoke number incorporated on the school badge which will be sewn on her uniform, which she will wear for the next 5-6 years. Cass…
RMCO Day 117 ~ Sunday, 4 October 2020
Alycia will be sitting for the SPM Trials in less than two weeks. Her high school teachers are providing additional online classes on Saturdays and Sundays to complete the syllabus. Thus, the poor girl has not been able to join us for lunch for two consecutive Sundays. And the littlest brat is at the stage…
She’s Wearing A Dress :)
When Alycia was about 10 years old, she told me that she doesn’t like dresses and will never wear a dress or skirt anymore. I really don’t know why both she and Cass suddenly hated to don on anything feminine when they reached their double digit birthdays. But both the girls started to wear dresses…
Nursing The Girl Back To Health
Alycia has been down with a stomach flu and absent from school for 3 days. Besides napping and doing a wee bit of revision, her eyes have been glued to her phone, watching K-dramas and K-pop videos. She’s supposed to eat clear porridge but this girl would ? at the sight of porridge. She wanted to eat…
Faith In Humanity Restored
When Alycia got home from a day’s outing with her friends yesterday, I was surprised to see her donning on a pair of bright yellow Adidas shorts the moment she stepped into the house. That’s now hers and I queried her. And there’s a story behind this super expensive pair of shorts, which I initially…
Down Memory Lane
Alycia has been assigned by her high school Drama Club teacher-in-charge to organize an end-of- year school trip for Drama Club members. The destination of choice is Ipoh but she’s open to other places as long as the trip is within the budget of RM200 per student. So Alycia called my parents to ask them…
First Term School Holidays & University Hunting
Kick-ass Kickboxing Girls
Alycia and Sherilyn are both attending kickboxing and Muay Thai classes now. They love it! Well, my girls are not really girls. They prefer to indulge in boys’ stuff. When Alycia was about 7 or 8 years old, she was obsessed with Ultraman, guns and Doraemon and then progressed to something called One Piece figures (some…
