Barely 24 hours after Christmas day and our neighborhood supermarket has already started to change decor and food stuff on their shelves today! The faster they change, the faster the kaching comes in! ? I’ll wager that by tomorrow, CNY songs will be blasting away. Oh no CNY is less than a month away! I don’t…

SIL from Hawaii arrived at 3:45 am today. For the next 2 weeks, we’re set to accompany her to gormandize all the yummy local fare that there is to offer in KL ? ? After they had breakfast of fishballs noodles and Nyonya kuih in Paramount PJ (which I didn’t follow), we went to Alexis @…

Today I woke up with a burst of energy, raring for it to be unleashed on the tracks. After 20 minutes of strength training, I ran a few rounds at the tracks but had to truncate my running session 15 minutes earlier to bring Sherilyn to school at 7 :15 a.m. She’s got another dance…

The haze situation finally eased a little in KL. Today we no longer smell acrid smog. I finally saw a few speckles of faint white clouds and a few splashes of pale blue and peach colors emerging from behind the grey hazy skies when I did my exercise at 6:30 this morning! Things like white clouds…
Day 2 Haze Holiday (19 Sept 2019)
The haze is still chokingly bad today. It looks and smells worse than the day before. Our windows and sliding door are shut all day and it’s terribly hot and stuffy inside, though all three fans are turned on in the living room. The girls pretty much stayed home all day but I made 5…

Alycia’s down with a stomach flu today. She puked at midnight but didn’t let me know until the next morning. She had to skip school today as she was running to the bathroom to evacuate every few hourly. I was supposed to bring her to the clinic to get an MC but I’ve been so…
Random Updates
The past one week has been one whirlwind of a week, it’s not ended yet and spilling into this week. I am super duper sleep deprived and enervated. My brain is foggy too from getting only 4-5 hours of sleep each night and even on a rainy Sunday morning (when I should still be in…

Yesterday the vigilant guard at my condo’s car park intercom-ed our unit at 11-ish p.m. to inform that my car had a flat tire. The next day I checked the tire and though it looked slightly flat, I had no time to bring it to the tire shop to get it checked as I had…
Our Saturday, 15 June 2019
Sherilyn spent almost the entire Saturday working on some models for her school library for Library Week that starts today. Model of The Lost City of Atlantis ~ not perfect but not bad either, considering she did it single-handedly in half a day. The towers were sprayed with bronze color spray-paint and she still hasn’t…
Wesak Day Weekend
So Mid Year Exam’s finally OVER for the brat rat. What a load off my Cass’ shoulders. Next will be getting the exam papers back, report card day ?, Jogathon day (I’ll be running with the brat rat again!) and sports day but before all these stress, it’s celebratory time!! Celebration of end of exam, two public…

Hello May 2019! I just realized today while chatting with a blog reader of mine that my blogs turned 12 years old in April this year!!! Where did time go?!! And to think that I still keep in touch with these blog readers of mine who started reading my blogs since they were teenagers and…
Day 2 Of Water Cut
Yesterday was day 2 of the water cut. And it was the best day ever as the water came back sooner than everyone had expected! All the Klang Valley folks affected had expected the worst case scenario of a 3 to 4-day water cut but ‘syabas’ to SYABAS, the restoration works at the water treatment…

This week is another NO REST week for me. I want to bawl my eyes out. It’s enervating having to wake up when it’s still pitch black outside, knowing that it’s a damn Saturday or Sunday, but instead of under my comfy blanket, I have to force my butt out of bed to do my…
First Term School Holidays & University Hunting
Today is the last day of school for the first term and the week long school holidays begins. But this school holidays ain’t a holiday for me. Alycia has to be in school for three days from Saturday through Monday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (until 6 p.m. on Sunday) for her drama club…
Thursday (28 February 2019) and Friday (1 March 2019)
Thursday, 28 February 2019 The heat wave is on and I’m back to my days of showering 4 to 5 times a day! Every activity that I do that involves moving vigorously from moping the floor to hanging the laundry, changing the bedsheet to cooking sends me to the bathroom for a quick 5-minute shower….
Monday, 11 February 2019
After a week long Chinese New Year school holidays, the girls got back to school today. I had to cut short my morning exercise to fetch Sherilyn to school at 6:45 a.m. She’s representing her school in the athletics event and had to be in the stadium at 7:30 a.m. today. This is my peace…
