I was itching to taste some Malay food today and hubs brought us to one Kak Jat Ikan Bakar on Jalan Bellamy. There are a few stalls on this road selling the same dishes and specializing in grilled fish. As far as choice of fish goes, you get pari (stingray), kembung, terubok, tilapia, and more. There’re…
The Asia Junior Got Talent Finals held on Sunday, 1 December 2019 at the National Film Development Corporation Malaysia (FINAS) saw 48 extremely talented finalists competing to vie for the first prize of USD1,000. Some of the talents are from China, Norway, Indonesia and Thailand. Competition was so stiff that I really didn’t think that…
Shopping for gowns and bridesmaid dresses was hardly my interest (though I’m a self professed shopping queen) until last year when I had 4 weddings to attend. And we have another wedding coming up on the first day of 2020. I started to hunt for cheap gowns last year and it dawned on me that…
When Alycia was about 10 years old, she told me that she doesn’t like dresses and will never wear a dress or skirt anymore. I really don’t know why both she and Cass suddenly hated to don on anything feminine when they reached their double digit birthdays. But both the girls started to wear dresses…
The search for a dinner and church wedding dress for the girls continued yesterday. That’s Part 3 and it’s more or less settled for Alycia, though I’m still not 100% satisfied with the black cold shoulder dress that I got for her last week. Yesterday Alycia went out shopping for gowns with her grand aunt…
I was feeling a little under the weather yesterday; was feeling that a cold and sore throat were about to attack me but I think my defense system is fighting those bugs very well. I’m feeling better now. I had the usual headache, bodyache and slight chills throughout the day. The mil had gone to…
The search for a dinner dress and church wedding dress for the girls for the wedding of hubby’s cousin on 1.1.2020 continues today. We spent a total of 4 hours walking non-stop, hunting for dinner dresses and shoes. I walked over 7k steps just at the mall. And another 7k during my morning exercise. Feeling…
So my dancing queen resumed her contemporary dance classes on Tuesday at another dance studio on Tuesday. This studio is not new to her but the dance instructor is. Sherilyn used to attend ballet classes at this dance studio when she was 4 – 7 years old. On the same night of her first dancing class,…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
