    Compulsory subjects for SPM

    Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008

    SPM is the not so equivalent of O-Levels here in Malaysia. The Hubs and I have been in serious discussion over Tee’s educational route. We are lucky enough to have options but naturally, all options have their strengths and weaknesses. So whilst researching the SPM, I found out that Moral is a compulsory subject […]

    Getting sick from the rain

    Thursday, November 20th, 2008

    I chose to tempt fate yesterday. I don’t know why I do what I do sometimes.
    It is a known fact tried and tested many a time, that whenever I get caught in the rain, even if it is the slightest drizzle, I will catch a cold and fall ill. TRIED and TESTED in many variations […]

    Asking for favours

    Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

    Where do you draw the line in asking someone for a favour?
    I am generally ok with people asking me DIRECTLY to babysit, do some free work for them, water their plants whilst they are on holiday, run an errand for them or pick their kid up from school. Ask me and I will tell you […]

    My mother’s stupid helper

    Monday, November 10th, 2008

    You know, I’ve heard a lot of stories about helpers and maids, whatever you want to call them, but I don’t think I have actually met a more stupid maid as the one working for my Mother. My mother has never screamed so much in her life and just recently, I too, started screaming. And […]

    Our co-sleeping journey……

    Saturday, October 18th, 2008

    Why is it that children like sleeping with their parents? I don’t remember ever sleeping with a parent (but hey, that could be due to severe failed memory loss). I certainly don’t wish to sleep with my parents now. *cringe*
    It really is a dependency, isn’t it? I suppose it is much nicer sleeping with someone […]

    What to do on a lazy Friday….

    Friday, October 17th, 2008

    After an exhausting week, I was so looking forward to Friday, where we had nothing planned. No classes, no school, no play dates, no parties, nothing. We could sleep in, laze about and make sure the plumber knows what he’s doing. You see, we’ve had many leaks around the home front and if you’re Chinese, […]

    Coping with stress

    Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008

    I’ve had almost 10 days of intense stress now. There is a family crisis and I, being one of the saner ones in Eurasian Land, have become the mediator in the midst of a family squabble. *sigh* It’s everything to do with love and money. *sigh*
    THEN. Tee is going through a tough time at school. […]

    Do not underestimate the power of a woman scorn!

    Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

    Once upon a time, there were 2 famous Eurasian sisters - let’s call them the G-spot Sisters for the purpose of this story. The G-spot sisters were the talk of the town and had many men falling at their feet but only performed in other men’s fantasies. But for all their men glory, all they […]

    Forgotten password

    Friday, September 12th, 2008

    You know, I had quite a few posts to complete by tonight because this week has been a super busy week but I tried logging into one of the blog agents and realised that I’d fogotten the password!!! I am so frustrated right now because I need to complete my work by tonight!!! I can’t […]

    Horrible, horrible premenstrual day!!!

    Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

    This morning I had to go to Tee’s school to do some photography. Then we had music class. By the time we got home, I was soooooooooooooooooooo sleepy. Mind you, I had a good 8 hours sleep last night so I’m not sure why I’m so sleepy. I just had to lie down but couldn’t […]

    Airtight ‘lock-lock’ tupperwares

    Sunday, October 14th, 2007

    Haha…..what a name! lock-lock…
    Yesterday, the Hubs was looking for some tupperwares to store some food but our cupboards had so many of those free plastic boxes with mismatched lids that he got so fed up and drove out to Ikano to buy RM200 worth of lock-lock tupperwares. If you think RM200 will get you a […]

    Where on Earth does she get this from?!?

    Thursday, October 11th, 2007

    Heard on the way to school this morning…..
    “Please can I have my music, Mummy?”
    “No, you may not.”
    “Please can I have my music?”
    “No, you may not.”
    “Please can I have my music?”
    “Tee? Didn’t we make a deal that mornings are Mummy’s turn to listen to the radio and afternoons and nights are your turn for your music?”
    “Please can I […]

    Hell hath no fury like a Mother scorned

    Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

    Everyday after playschool, I pick Tee up and we go straight home for some quick grub, bath and nap. No questions. She has to be down by 2pm latest or we’d be partying to Lionel Ritchie’s all night long.
    Today, for some obscure reason, she kicked up a big fuss about going straight home for lunch and insisted we […]

    Beware! RayBans required here….

    Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007

    Do you know what I wish for?
    I wish that when I hover the mouse over any part of this blog, that it will spring a cloud to tell me exactly where the html code is for that particular section of the blog.
    FARK!
    *tearing hair out*

    Road rage and naked child public punishment

    Thursday, September 27th, 2007

    The latter will scare and infuriate you to no end. These are true stories happening right here in Kuala Lumpur.
    We’ll start with the lesser of evil.
    Kampung Pandan roundabout
    Whilst driving today, I witnessed a road bully. Malay male on a motorbike stopped 90 degrees in front of a green Iswara that housed a blur looking old man. The bloke […]

    Technology’s pulling at my leg!

    Tuesday, September 25th, 2007

    You know, the thing about technology, is that it’s supposed to be the tool that frees us Moms from the grinds of Motherhood.
    Dishwashers (for removing stubborn stains) - tick.
    Dryers (for drying children) - tick.
    Idiot Box (for babysitting) - tick.
    Wheels (for transporting children to the next city. And leaving them there) - tick.
    Computers (for gaining access to the world wide web) - tick.
    Blogging […]

    I need to design a child rack!

    Thursday, September 20th, 2007

    Whenever we visit my mom every Friday, it’s Tee’s ticket to freedom. She gets all the candy in the world, is protected from disciplinary warnings and spits at the Thinking Corner. The girl has a SERIOUS field day.
    Today was no different. Whilst at her Nana’s house, Tee never wants to do anything I ask her […]
