Holding My Mind Ransom

Kids these days are super manipulative. With access to online social media platforms, the internet and the newspapers, my 12-year old knows more than I do sometimes. After all, she has more free time on hand to read during her leisure time whereas my free time is like just ten minutes a day – when…

Random Updates

I have been  so so super duper busy the past week. Well, I should say I have not been free since the start of school on 12 January 2015. As with other years, orders at my online store have been very high around this time as CNY is less than 2 weeks away. Plus I…

Of Bribing A Child

Today I bribed Cass! I told Cass that if she would let me record a video her dancing and singing to Meghan Trainor’s All About That Bass song, I would give her a reward *evil mum*    Now she is bugging me to shoot the video so that she can claim her reward! Coz I…

Our Sunday, 20 October 2014

My Sunday yesterday was no different from any weekday as I had to be up from bed at 5:30am.  Alycia had to attend a team-building camp in school and had to be in school by 7:30am. Breakfast was pretty light and healthy. You can see from the picture below that we had sugar-free yoghurt, sweet…

Our Sunday, 12 October 2014 – Eve Of Final Exam

On the eve of Alycia and Sherilyn’s exam, I should be at home to do revision with them today.  But as in previous exams, we were pretty relaxed and went to Mid Valley Megamall to have brunch at Sushi Zanmai *feeling guilty*!         After brunch, hubs suggested to have some cakes and…

Our Merdeka Holiday @ Avenue K – 1 Sept 2014

We spent our Merdeka holiday at Avenue K yesterday – 1 Sept 2014. After a very satisfying lunch at Wondermama @ Avenue K, we charged the stores of H&M.  My 3 vain pots and me.  Hubs went his own way. I managed to get what the girls needed from H&M – a dinner dress each…

Eve Of The Girls’ Exam

It’s the exam season once again. My desktop PC was dominated by Alycia and Sherilyn for the past 2 days.   I prefer to use online Tatabahasa notes (mostly prepared by teachers) to guide the girls as there are more visuals to accompany the notes and they remember better when shown information in colorful slides. Sample…

Pink Hello Kitty Dress

There is this pink Hello Kitty dress at my supplier’s warehouse, which can be purchased from my online store  that I am very, very tempted to get for myself.  I have been a Hello Kitty fan all my life!  When I was younger, I used to eat, sleep and breathe Hello Kitty and all things…

Throes Of Motherhood

Happy Monday everyone! It’s been a while since I last updated my blogs and my reason has always been the same. I’m sure you will know why if you are a regular reader of my blog 😉 The past one week sure had been hectic for me. My regular part-time maid did the unexpected. She…

I Hate The Month Of May!

Darn my twitching right eye lids and eye brows for the past 2 weeks.  Bad things keep happening one after another.  Each time my right eye lid and eye brow twitch, I start to worry.  9 out of 10 times my right eye twitches, someone dear to me or myself are bound to fall sick…

Exam Fever

Scene at home on the eve of Alycia and Sherilyn’s mid year exam, on a Sunday…. Me revising with Alycia and Sherilyn on Kata Kerja, Sinomim, Antonim, Simpulan Bahasa, Penjodoh Bilangan, Kata Ganda and a whole load of Tatabahasa on Slideshare from the computer. Alycia is in Primary 5 and Sherilyn in Primary 3 this…

Bonding With No. 2

I had a much needed fruitful bonding with rascal no.2 yesterday. We did what girls love best – shopping!  Mummy and daughter shopping for shoes and clothes! At Avenue K Shopping Mall, after a delightful and totally satisfying lunch at Bankara Ramen and stationery and books shopping at Popular Bookstore.  It was our first time…

Mama, You’re The Queen Of My Heart

My kids are my angels and they are ironically also the monsters hiding in the closet, waiting to pounce on me and make me scream and weep on my PMS days. When they are angels, they make me laugh till I tear. Yesterday was movie day. The girls were all in a cheery and upbeat…

Golden Hours Of My Morning

With just 3 hours (and sometimes fewer) of golden hours in the morning sans the kids, I want to do everything before the girls come home and rob me of my absolute peace and sanity!  But there is no way I can accomplish so much in under 3 hours, unless I have some magical powers…

Movie Marathon In The Car

The only time I have the luxury to watch an entire movie from start to end without any interruption is during road trips. Thank God for the TV in hubs’ car. I really do enjoy such trips, where the kids and I  go on a movie marathon while munching on  fruits and snacks 😀 During…
