Surprises

Posted on May 18, 2008May 18, 2008 by Shireen

I had a few surprises last week and this week. Last week, a man rang the doorbell of my house and asked if I was Shireen. Then, he said his colleague has a gift for my baby. When I opened the gift, I was really surprised to see that the lovely gift was from Hui…

Sightseeing In New York

Posted on May 18, 2008 by Shireen

My internet connection was disconnected on Tuesday. I was promised that the connection will be up again in 2-3 working days. However, on the second day, it was still not up yet. I was really fuming mad and called our Telekom every 3 hours to check on the status of my case. On the third…

Password Vault

Posted on May 18, 2008 by Shireen

You are rushing to complete a project for a client with a deadline that is due today. In your haste, you have forgotten the password to log in to your computer or to your document. You have got a long list of passwords for all your documents, web sites and bank accounts and suddenly, your…

Bringing Baby C To Work

Posted on May 18, 2008May 18, 2008 by Shireen

I have no choice but to bring Baby C along to hub’s office to work yesterday and today….. and I brought her bouncinet along. What a life-saver the bouncinet is. As I am typing this, she is fast asleep in her bouncinet….and my left leg is bouncing the net! I have just nursed her and…

No Time To Blog Hop

Posted on May 18, 2008May 18, 2008 by Shireen

I have not been blog hopping for almost 1 week now. I really miss reading the updates in your blog. Sorry my dear friends if I have not visited your blog. Stupid Streamyx is still down… talking about it makes my blood boil. I am now at my hub’s office…. and I can only afford…

VoIP Phone Systems

Posted on May 18, 2008 by Shireen

Ever since I left my hometown to come to KL to study and subsequently to work 18 years ago, my mum has been calling me almost everyday. Most of the time, she’s the one who makes the call and pays the phone bill. She also calls my brother who lives in Singapore very regularly. I…

Blogging Marathon

Posted on May 18, 2008May 18, 2008 by Shireen

Phew….. I can now finally breathe a sign of relief. I can’t believe I have finally completed 18 assignments in 2 days! That’s the reason why I feel my brain can always perform better under stress. With just 2 hours that I manage to steal yesterday and today to work at hubby’s office, I managed to…

I Love Kai Jau

Posted on May 18, 2008May 18, 2008 by Shireen

This is the ‘kai jau’ (chicken cooked with ginger wine and rice wine) that my hubby’s aunt cooked on Baby C’s fullmoon party last week. She cooked so much that there was so much leftover. After my confinement lady left on Friday last week, I ate that ‘kai jau’ for 4 days in a row! …

Options Trading For Me?

Posted on May 18, 2008May 18, 2008 by Shireen

Earning money from writing paid posts ain’t easy at all. Well, maybe it would be easier if only I had more time to do it everyday. With 3 kids to handle all by myself, I find that I have not much time to spend on the computer. My friend was suggesting that I give up…

Life Is Crazy

Posted on May 17, 2008 by Shireen

Life is crazy. I am working my brain and fingers at full steam now. I have 18 outstanding assignments to complete in 2 days and Streamyx is still not re-connected yet. I will surely have to reject some of the offers as I can only afford to steal 2 hours a day to go to…

Internet Down

Posted on May 17, 2008 by Shireen

I am sooooooo darn pissed off with Telekom. After 4 looooooooong, agonizing days of without internet connection, my Streamyx is still NOT up yet…. thanks to our efficient Telekom. For the last 4 days, I have been calling Telekom every 3 hours to check on the status of my case and each time I called, I got…

Hoover Dam In Las Vegas

Posted on May 17, 2008 by Shireen

For those of you who are planning your Las Vegas vacations, apart from the casinos and spectacular night life, there are many other places of interest and attractions to visit. One of the many attractions is the Hoover Dam which harnesses the Colorado River in the Black Canyon. The Hoover Dam was opened in 1936…

Baby C’s Eczema Flared Up Face

Posted on May 13, 2008May 13, 2008 by Shireen

See how blemished and red the eczema has caused my poor baby’s face. The eczema is so bad that her cheeks feel rough and I bet it must be painful too. She also has mild cradle cap on her scalp and eye brows. I removed the cradle cap from her eye brows by rubbing the brows with baby…

My Monday

Posted on May 12, 2008 by Shireen

I expected this to happen. Telekom has yet to call my hubby to sign the contract for the change of name for our fixed phone line, thus I can still access Streamyx. I wonder when they will call. Anyway, this morning, hubby brought Sherilyn to the dentist as her gum is a tad swollen and bleeding. …

Disney World In Orlando Is Still The Best

Posted on May 12, 2008 by Shireen

My sil in Hong Kong has been inviting us to travel to Hong Kong to visit her. She has even offered to give us a treat to Disneyland in Hong Kong. I must say Alycia and Sherilyn are really lucky to have such a good aunt who is ever willing to shower them with gifts….

Blog Break

Posted on May 12, 2008 by Shireen

I will be unable to blog for 1-3 days from today. That’s because hubby has applied for the name for our fixed phone line to be changed from his sister to his name. And our Streamyx connection has to be disconnected to facilitate the change in name. Can you beat that? I just don’t understand why our government departments…
