Half A Year Has Gone

I just realized that today is 30th June, which means that exactly half a year has flown passed us, in what seemed like a blink of an eye.  I remember very vividly ushering in the new year and celebrating the New Year’s Eve at Pavillion and staying a night at Sheraton Imperial Hotel with hubby,…

Hot, Hot Day

The weather has been incredibly hot and humid lately.  With the confinement food that I am eating, I am sweating profusely.  I even sweat the moment I step out from the bathroom.  I have a hard time nursing Baby C during the day coz after nursing her, both of us will sweat….. and we don’t have…

Happy All Fools’ Day

So did anyone get fooled today? When I was younger, I used to prepare my tricks and pranks on my friends days in advance. Thinking back, that was really childish of me but I did have a good time carrying out those pranks. I was fooled and I fooled people and we all had some…

Facebook

I never really knew how Facebook worked until recently when a few of my old friends tried looking for me through Facebook.  Several days ago, a boy whom I had known when I was 13 years old sent me a message on Facebook. I can’t remember where we had met – it was either at…

The Gals’ Collection of Sharpeners

This is Alycia and Sherilyn’s collection of sharpeners – 6 double hole sharpeners and 1 huge durable sharpener, plus more than 5 single hole sharpeners (not in picture).  They seem to have a thing with sharpeners and keep sharpening their pencils and color pencils. I used to hide these sharpeners in a drawer fastened with a child lock but ever…

Forgetful Mum

I was rushing away to meet my deadlines this morning till I had forgotten to put Alycia’s lunch box into her school bag.  I had prepared peanut butter-strawberry jam-butter and cheese toast for her and had cut it nicely into triangular wedges and placed them into her lunch box.  I then left the lunchbox on the…

What’s Wrong With Me?

I have been feeling really dry with skin peeling off from my arms, waist and belly area, my lips are cracked and bleeding and I have insatiable thirst since last night. Since this morning till now, I’ve gulped down more than 15 glasses of plain water and finally the thirsty feeling is gone. I wonder…

Can’t Sleep

We had dinner with my elder brother and his family at a chinese restaurant in Chulan Square this evening and I had some very diluted chinese tea.  Now, I’m feeling wide awake and just can’t seem to fall asleep.  Or is it because I’ve been working too hard for the past few days trying to recover my lost…

Just In Case We Need Them

Know what Tamiflu is? It’s the antidote for bird flu.  Nope, none of us have bird flu, knock on wood, choi!  Hubby bought a box of it at the height of the bird flu epidemic last year when supply of Tamiflu ran low.  My slaphappy and easy-going  hubby can be quite far-sighted sometimes.  No. of times…

Happy Deepavali Holidays

My eldest brother, his wife and in-laws from Singapore are here in KL for the Deepavali holidays.  He came this morning to pass me the money that I’d transferred from my Paypal account to his Singapore bank account.  Tonight, we’ll be having dinner at Imbi Palace again. To all those celebrating Deepavali, here’s wishing you ‘happy…

We Witnessed A Car Theft

Last week, hubby and I witnessed a car theft at our neighborhood.  We had just gotten back from the clinic and were about to get down from the car when hubby saw a man behaving suspiciously at the door of a car about 6 houses away from our house.  Seconds later, the smooth criminal opened the car…

How Do You Prevent Cats From Coming To Your House To Poo?

This is the picture of my backyard.  Something must be really attractive with this wall coz the stray cats keep coming to our backyard to pee and poo and they stink like hell!  We’ve tried spraying the area with aerosol and my mil even suggested putting mineral water bottles filled with water on top of  the water…

I Really Need A Larger Computer Desk

That’s the picture of my workplace. I took a snapshot of it on Saturday after the computer guy took my CPU away to have it fixed.  With the archaic tower CPU, my desk is even more squeezy. That is why I can never eat and work at the same time coz there is just no…

Me Appearing on TV?

Last night, I was invited by a blogging mom to appear on TV3. TV3 would like to interview mothers who blog for money and she was invited by someone from TV3 who is a reader of her blog. I was like “what, me appearing on tv? No way, my pregnancy hormones have made me look awful…

Sickening News Everyday

Every morning when I go through the newspapers, I read sickening news of rape, murder, plane crashes, fatal accidents and missing children. The latest news is on the young girl who had been sexually assaulted with objects stuck to her private part before being murdered and her body stuffed into a sports bag and left…

Monday Morning

It’s 6:55am now and the rain is still tick tick tock tock pattering outside, since 4am. I wonder if it’s going to stop so that I can go for my morning stroll and get my breakfast and newspapers. I hope Alycia will have no problem waking up later for school as she had slept late…
