Mamapumpkin??? 
Once upon a time, she designed buildings and interiors of corporate offices and on the rare occasion, homes. Now, she cleans poop and is student of a patience management course. From the drawing board as a London Architect to the realities of Motherhood, she has 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 Mamapumpkin: A crazy, kick-ass Mom who works full time juggling several jobs - the full-time paid job, the raising of her 2 kids (she gets paid in kind for this) and the volunteering job for various charity organisations and parenting websites. Needless to say, she gets very little sleep (3-5 hours per day, Margaret Thatcher who used to sleep 4 hours per day during her conservative career inspires this crazy lifestyle).
Mamapumpkin intends to change the working Mom landscape in Malaysia where working women can bring their children to the corporate office of a client and not be frowned upon.
She writes anything that comes out of her head, mostly without thinking first (since she already has to think at work!), which almost ALWAYS gets her into trouble (according to her husband, whom she considers the love of her life on a good day).
Her 2 pet monkeys drive her towards challenge after challenge, 24/7.....day after day.....and interestingly, her parents are Muslim, her in-laws Buddhist, she's Catholic and her Hubs, an Atheist. She's thinking her kids should be Hindu, just to complete the rainbow religion cycle.
Gotta love it.

Sultan Lounge at Mandarin Oriental
By Mamapumpkin, on February 28th, 2012
One fine evening, after work some girlfriends of mine dragged me out on a night around town. I’d just finished a meeting with my Boss at 9pm and had been in the same clothes all day yet they wanted me out with them. Believe me, some people are very persistent!!! We visited Havana, Frangipani, the Shangri La and finally ended up at the Sultan Lounge!.I didn’t even know such a place existed!!! (Google it if you want to see what it looks like)
Anyway, if you were so inclined, the Sultan Lounge is located at the basement of the Mandarin Oriental right at the hidden back where a lift descends into a dark, smoky, loud haven of plush, royal fabric. It is any wonder how they clean the place as they have so much fabric in there! The crowd is mostly royal too so you can guess what kind of crowd visits the Sultan Lounge (how kitsch) and you can see a bevy of boy toys parked outside for parade. Red, black and yellow were the colours of the night. If you ever wanted a photo with a mechanical beauty, you now know where to go.
At an old age with my tired state, I was still hit upon by some psychotic Dutch guy! I was like, Oh my God, get me out of here!!!
