Hubs gave Sherilyn a choice – choose either dancing or martial arts. Currently, she’s spending quite a bit of time doing both. And she’s not content with just attending classes. She’s got an unquencable thirst for competitions, especially dancing. Her martial arts master is also persuading her to compete in sparring and Pompsae. For martial…
Green View Restaurant and Durian Man @ SS2, Petaling Jaya
Youngest SIL treated everyone (immediate family members, aunts, uncles and cousins from the Yaps) to a lavish dinner of sang har (fresh huge prawns) and crabs at Green View Restaurant @ SS2 Petaling Jaya last Saturday (2 November 2019) before her return to Hawaii on Tuesday after a 2-week holiday here. The last time she…
Lost And Found And What A Joke!
This is the new AIRism shirt that hubs bought from Uniqlo on Sunday. Being the OCD that I am, the moment we got home from the mall, I immediately washed all the new clothes that I’d bought, including his. And I remembered that after the shirt was dried the same night (AIRism dries within an…
Emotional Day
The past 3 days have been nothing short of highly emotional for me. My blood was up and my emotions were running high. I was really upset and incensed with someone the past 2 days. And the situation is inexorable. A catch-22 situation. No way out kind of situation. Thankfully I had someone whom I…
Parents’ 49th Wedding Anniversary Celebration (28 October 2019)
Exactly 49 years ago on 28 October 1970, my parents got hitched to each other. It was Deepavali on that day. This year’s Deepavali is held on 27 October 2019 and 28 October is a school holiday for the girls. My parents came to KL to celebrate their big day. While a 49th wedding anniversary…
Sinful Sweet Monday
After a sumptuous dinner at Ming Room @ Bangsar Shopping Complex to celebrate mom and dad’s 49th wedding anniversary last night, hubs went shopping for desserts, though we’d just scarfed down so much delish food with dessert of half the anniversary cake, longevity pau and white fungus longan dessert just a moment ago! Our first…
If You’re An Asian Mom, Watch This Video
This video really made my day and had me in stitches this morning? If you’re an Asian mom, like myself, this video so relates to our everyday lives dealing with our school-going Gen Z digital dopamine frazzled zombie kids; and how we tiger Asian moms put so much emphasis on good academic results! What you…

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 @…
What’s Your Body Mass Index (BMI)?
As written in my earlier posts, my weight dropped from 46.7kg to about 44kg (at times, 43.9kg) early this year. I did not intentionally lose weight. I kept getting the flu and sore throat continuously late last year for several months. I also intensified my daily morning workout by adding strength training and lower abdomen exercises….
Botanica + Co @ Vertical Podium, Bangsar South
I just realized that tomorrow is Sunday and I still haven’t posted food photos that we took last Sunday when we were at Bangsar South (AGAIN!) for lunch. I have a hunch that the hubs will be going there again for lunch tomorrow, or even for dinner tonight! The bite-list at Bangsar South is replete with…
Cassandra’s First Field Trip
I was already up at 4:30 a.m. on Saturday to ensure that Cass reaches school by 7 a.m. for her maiden one-day field trip organized by her school for Primary 5 students. Places covered include a soy sauce factory, a theater at The Curve, a Nyonya kuih factory and lunch in Selayang. She’s waited for…
So Who Died Ah?
After the fatal heart attack incident at our apartment two days ago, many residents including me, were curious to know who the deceased was. We only knew that he was a large size Indian man with a beer belly. All the residents whom I bumped into asked me if the deceased was my opposite neighbor,…
Creepy Day
Our evening today ended with everyone shaken by a grisly incident at our apartment gym. Alycia who was at the library with her friend and Math tutor witnessed a death scene at the gym. The library is located opposite the gym. A man who was lifting weights at the gym suddenly collapsed onto the floor…
Sunday, 29 Sept 2019
Today the mil returned from New Zealand after a 2-month long holiday. She came home early in the morning while the girls were still in bed. Today is also the eve of Cass and Alycia’s final exams for 2019! Despite today being a Sunday, the girls got up at 7:30 a.m. to welcome grandma home…
Thursday, 26 Sept 2019
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…
Tuesday, 24 Sept 2019
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…
