FollowWe had breakfast at Antipodean @ Mid Valley today. This is Antipodean’s newest outlet in the Klang Valley. As with their outlet in Bangsar, the one at Mid Valley is just as crowded. We wanted to have breakfast at this outlet yesterday but the wait list was too long. We were slightly luckier today and…

Alycia’s Taylor Swift Red Tour Sneakers
I promised Alycia that if she could maintain her grades and position in her third semester exam, she can have a reward of her choice, within our budget. On Friday when I picked her up after school, she asked me with delight: “mummy, you promised me a reward right?” And she told me her class…

Cameron Highlands Trip (9-10 June 2014)
Messy, Messier, Dustiest, Havoc-kest!
This is my once clean and dust-free warm abode… Now the walls are hacked and the entire place looks like a post-earth quake shattered unit *sobs* Even with plastic sheets, the darn workers’ rough handling tore down the sheets and my work area and dining area are freaking dusty!!! I asked the old…
And The Nightmare Begins…
The nightmare has just begun for 2 weeks of hacking, drilling, dust and mess in the house *sobs* The past 2 days we did a lot of packing, sealing and moving to our aunt’s unit in the same block as ours. The real nightmare on Elm Street begins tomorrow! As online work continues for…
A Very Expensive Lesson Learnt, The Hard Way!
As I had mentioned in my earlier post, the month of May has always been a very challenging month for me. Nothing goes smoothly in the month of May. It is also a month that money goes out inevitably from my pockets, from hubs’ pockets too. We were married in the month of May. Hubs…
Awful Monday
The month of May has always been very challenging for me. This May, I have a long list of hurdles to tick away from the Awful May list. The biggest hurdle was ticked last week after Cass went for her Urodynamics Test. I just had my lower tooth no.5 extracted today and gawd, it was…
Emotional Day
Today is an emotional day of sorts for me. The news of the ill-fated missing MH370 MAS airplane last night and what I read from today’s newspapers have been very depressing. The cover page of The Star newspapers is black today. Pictures of the relatives and kin of the passengers on board MH370 crying and…
It Finally Rained Cats And Dogs!!
Many of us take for granted what comes down from above like the rain and the sunshine. But ever since the prolonged drought and water rationing exercise carried out in almost every part of the Klang Valley in 1998, I have treated rain water as a very precious natural resource. Each time it rains, I…
Brainwashing Statement
Whenever Alycia and Sherilyn pass remarks like “are we bringing bread to school AGAIN tomorrow?”, I will reply “YES!”. “Strawberry jam/ kaya/peanut butter again??” and I will reply “YES!!” “I am SO SICK of strawberry jam / kaya/peanut butter mummy!” And my standard long reply would go… “when I was your age, my mummy, your…
Sherilyn Is 9!
Happy birthday Sherilyn! May you grow up healthily, happily and obediently with God’s guidance. May you make your daddy and mummy proud of you always. Can’t believe that you are 9 this year! Still remember so vividly 9 years ago today. It was the 8th day of CNY and you were delivered via elective C-Section.…
