« Previous EntriesSnow in Malaysia??
Sunday, November 23rd, 2008OK, two guesses what the above picture is all about.
For the longest time, Tee has wanted to see real snow. She wants to feel it, touch it, be in it and keeps asking us to take her to Canada or Switzerland because she wants to see snow!!! Sometimes she asks for England too, but not […]
Daniel Craig in Quantum of Solace 007
Monday, November 17th, 2008I love Hollywood flicks as much as I love the deeper British productions because I love analysing creativity. Taking apart entire finished products and criticising them is what I was taught to do at University.
Quantum of Solace
The music at the beginning was already weak and that put me off - not catchy, not zany, not […]
Tee dreaming of a doll house
Monday, November 10th, 2008Lately, I’ve noticed how quiet Tee goes whenever she is faced with a doll house. Whilst it was my childhood dream to own a doll house (this never materialised) and it still is, the cost of it is making me think of a million reasons why we should or shouldn’t get one. My brother had […]
Educating a four year old who is school-less
Thursday, October 30th, 2008Well, first of all, I attended a performance this evening at the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra. An Italian ensemble of strings and a harpsichord. Have you ever, EVER seen a life harpsichord being played? Not I. In fact, I’ll bet that 80% of the Malaysian population not know what a harpsichord is.
Anyway, we had those boxed […]
A great corporate gift
Friday, October 17th, 2008Now if I was still in the corporate world, this is exactly what I’d give to my clients and business associates. I think it is the perfect gift.
A thumb drive. A thumb drive? Hey you! Do you know what a thumb drive is? It’s not a vehicle you use to drive by using your thumb, […]
The planning for my London trip next year resolved!
Friday, October 19th, 2007Thanks to this Hotel Reservations vendor whose name really doesn’t justify it’s breath of services. If you have no clue what I’m talking about, my family and I are traveling to Europe next September and I’ve been asked to plan the one month long excursion (which you can read about if you look into my May […]
The best roast chicken I’ve ever had
Monday, October 15th, 2007I’ve had many, many roast chickens in all my life but I must say that after 35 years, I’ve finally tasted the best. Ever. Today. My mother’s roast chicken is pretty good too but since she is Muslim, her cooking loses out sometimes for the lack of oinks.
The Hubs and Tee cooked me the best roast […]
DVD marathon at Casa Lee
Sunday, October 14th, 2007Ever since a lovely friend of ours lent us a bag of DVDs, we’ve been watching one every single night. Either we watch it after Tee is asleep, or like last night, I was asleep whilst Tee watched The Transformers with her Daddy. As much as people said how good the movie was, it just […]
I spent so much time doing baby research when I was pregnant
Friday, October 5th, 2007If only this online baby store existed then, and better still if the same quality store existed in Malaysia now. Customised for the local market. I think we still need it. Quick, quick…..does anyone want a business opportunity? It’s definitely something to look at.
It has everything all new moms want to know. From more than a […]
October 31st is a Wednesday - Halloween party anyone?
Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007We know of a few Halloween parties around but I’m not sure if Tee is old enough to appreciate a Halloween party yet. It may freak her eyeballs out. I’m sure she’d love the candy part just as much as she’d love tricking unsuspecting humans. But another party means Mommy has to work again in […]
Love affair with all things sweet
Saturday, September 29th, 2007I think my mother felt a deep bitterness when I was born. As such, drank condensed milk whilst she was pregnant, and fed me everything sweet after. It could’ve been the perpetual PMS. She then says I lost ALL (well, most….) my teeth when I was three because it was her fault. And what does she do now? […]
A lesson in humping aka bonking
Thursday, September 27th, 2007For awhile now, this blinking blog has been loading slower than snail’s pace. Even turtles hump faster and I have witnessed turtles hump, okay??? It took all of two hours before it ended. I bloody hope the male got his orgasm. And that it was worth it.
Thank you to TC who informed me of this […]
The challenge of a corporate office designer
Thursday, September 27th, 2007From my experience, majority of Malaysians don’t like spending on office furniture as opposed to their foreign counterparts. If anything, they’d spend a little more on the executive offices and then stinge even more on employee comfort.
Decision makers need to be more far-sighted when it comes to selecting something as what appears to be as trivial […]
Talk about efficiency. Thank you, JoMel!
Monday, September 24th, 2007Since my last post about family insurance plans, the lovely JoMel has responded rather promptly and at length to my genuine query. Now I’m not so quick to commit myself into the Education/Insurance plan for Tee. But having said that, I do like the coverage for insurance that she’d get with it. I mean, you […]
Blogsvertise
Monday, September 24th, 2007I signed up with a new advertiser today called Blogsvertise. What is cool about them, apart from the obvious, is that they approved my blog not only instantly, but delivered my first assignment within 10 minutes of signing up!!!
How unlike some othere advertisers who have a standing requirement that your blog needs to be 90 […]
Our children’s future
Monday, September 24th, 2007Last week, a friend and I went over to another friend’s place to hear him pitch a children’s education stroke insurance fund for Tee. He has been a friend since University days and I’ve known his family even before, so trusting this guy implicitly was as easy as eating cake.
He explained thoroughly what the fund was and it sounded […]
Me and my research habits
Friday, September 21st, 2007Whenever I am about to make a purchase, I usually burn the midnight oil for days on end researching the lucky product before parting with my hard earned cash. I’d draw up spreadsheets to analyse at a glance where my value was. In detail.
Like Tee’s school, for example. I’d visited 15 schools in my area […]
Our dream cars
Thursday, September 20th, 2007The Hubs used to own a bright yellow truck that he absolutely loved. He loved it so much, he named it Tigger. We discussed at length if he should modify his baby with auto accessories as there was just so much one could do with a truck. *wink*
It must be an American thing.
Alas, when I was heavilly pregnant, he had to […]
