….Talk is cheap….take it with a pinch of salt!
…..LATE AS USUAL!!! (is what TF left out in his tagline!) We didn’t fly Air Asia this time but took MAS instead and were pleasantly surprised and happy with MAS this time round. Truth be told, I don’t have a favourite. It’s almost like a Celcom-Maxis war. They’re both &#$%@*

Tee had an educational lesson today because we were early at the airport and thanks to Air Asia having some problems on the runway parking lot (what do you call that whole space that is not exactly the runway?), she observed with keen interest and asked lots of questions.
On top of that, she got to witness 3 Cesna planes take off and a huge helicopter landing. Unfortunately, from where we were, she couldn’t witness the full taking off of the late Air Asia plane that was supposed to depart at 9.50am but instead left 40 minutes late. So to date, Tee has still not seen first hand a big plane take off nor land. Unless we saw it in Tokyo. I’ve forgotten but that was the only time we had lots of time at the airport to actually look out. Maybe we did but she was asleep…..argh, I cannot remember! She was only 3.5 years old then anyway, too young to understand the physics of a plane.

Tee noticed that the 3 guys underneath the plane who were tugging at some rope from the plane had some furry dots on their ears. Ear muffs I told her. And amidst the gazillion questions (why can’t the plane reverse? how can the small truck push the big plane? what if the plane runs over the little men there? why do they have dots on their ears? what’s wrong with the plane? blablablablabla……), I was wondering to myself where Air Asia or airport management get those big ass ear muffs from? Because you know, I could really do with a pair. Seriously. Does anyone know? I want one because my 5 year old daughter can NOT stop talking.
Once upon a time, I designed buildings and interiors of corporate offices and on the rare occasion, homes. Now, I clean poop and am student of a patience management course. From the drawing board as a London Architect to the realities of Motherhood, I have certainly learned many lessons in humility. And then others.....
To succeed in the corporate world, first succeed with your kid as the happy boss. Seriously.
This blog is about me, Mamapumpkin. A crazy, demented Mom who cares full time, alone, without any help, for an even crazier preschooler AND a baby with a boob addiction problem. *sniff* Someone, please get me a chair.......
I write anything that comes out of my head, mostly without thinking first, which almost always gets me into trouble (according to my husband, also known as the love of my life.......on a good day).
My pet monkeys drive me towards challenge after challenge, 24/7.
Gotta love it.
