    Durians outside TMC Bangsar

    Thursday, July 24th, 2008

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    For those of you who love durians and live in Bangsar, there are two durian sellers currently outside TMC - one with two tables directly outside TMC against the TMC walls and another by the roadside along the main road. DON’T GO TO THE ROADSIDE ONE. Been there, it’s crap. And they are so Chinaman […]

    Sick with Laryngitis

    Thursday, July 24th, 2008

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    This is a common problem I have had ever since I was in University. Every time it was winter and I got the flu, I was bound to be hospitalised and sometimes struck with laryngitis. All my Univeristy mates know me as the girl who had a note pad and pen around her neck simply […]

    I’ve been busy!

    Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

    I’ve been suffering from a sinus infection. Post nasal drip, sore throat, pounding head (even when I talk!) and looking like shit. Mine anyway.
    The Hubs is convinced that it is a result of my going out three nights in a row because I am no longer a spring chicken, rather an old hen. Charming. Mind […]

    Tee watches space shuttle launch at Port Canaveral, Florida

    Monday, July 14th, 2008

    I assure you, this was not Tee’s show of displeasure towards the space shuttle launch. Rather, it was her annoyance that we could even suggest that she had to wash her face after the rocket launch. Hehe…..
    .
    The visual history of rockets below:

    Entrance at the Kennedy Space Centre, Port Canaveral, Florida. You can even buy a […]

    Florida Day 2 - Sea World

    Monday, July 7th, 2008

    Tee trying on Mommy’s sunnies before heading out to Sea World bright and early in the scorching Orlando sun.
    .

    She made friends everywhere we went. Easily. She’d just go up to little strangers and introduce herself and ask them what their names were. I have no idea where she has learnt this skill from but I’m […]

    Florida Day 1

    Sunday, July 6th, 2008

    After a good night’s sleep after our 38 hour journey, we had breakfast at the hotel and guess where our first stop in Orlando was? Haha!!! It was the Outlet mall!!! We spent all day there till dinner time

    Tee was entertained, of course, but these buggers cost USD2 per pop and she wanted […]

    Lazy Bum

    Friday, July 4th, 2008

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Ever since we returned from the States, I have been so, so, sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo lazy.
    To blog, that is.
    I’m not sure if it’s jet lag or the lack of motivation for the lack of incentives (hehe) or the lack of interaction that comes with this blog……..because blogging when you have to talk to yourself is…….well…….not as fun […]

    Meeting the Yankees for the first time

    Saturday, June 21st, 2008

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Throughout the flight to New York, I hardly slept at all but just TWO half hour naps in between. By then, Mommy and Daddy were feeling a bit rough and considered stuffing my mouth with some socks. And then when we arrived at US immigration in New York City and Mommy saw the longest queue, she decided […]

    Our fantastic holiday to America - the land of opportunity!!!

    Thursday, June 19th, 2008

    Hewo! My name is Tee and here, I will be journaw-ing my super-duper holiday to Amewica in a 17 part series with the help of Mommy. Some time after the last day of school last term, I kissed my Nana  my last goodbye as I wasn’t going to see her for a whole month. That…… […]

    Space Shuttle Launch

    Monday, June 9th, 2008

    Astronaut getting dressed
    The astronauts had to be quarantined for a month before the space shuttle launch which meant that we couldn’t meet him, the person who invited us. What a bummer! So all we got to see of him was through this big TV screen that showed him being transported from his quarantined base to […]

    38 hours of traveling with a toddler

    Monday, June 2nd, 2008

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    To watch this.

    We left our home in KL at exactly 6pm on 27th May 2008. Tee had had a short nap during the day hence was wide awake during the flight, despite the Doctor advising us to not let her nap so she could pass out on the plane. The day before we left, we […]

    Lazy Sunday

    Sunday, May 25th, 2008

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Finally, I’ve started putting clothes on the bed that will eventually be put into the suitcases. We’re travelling light, as light as possible, because Tee’s entertainment and snacks alone are enough to fill a bath tub. She still has a fever, bless her, and a nasty chesty cough. We’re resting her as much as possible.
    I […]

    Finally packed on paper

    Saturday, May 24th, 2008

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Ever since we arrived back from Redang, we’ve been tired and stressed but this evening, I finally feel in control because I have finally packed for our almost month long trip to the US. On paper. I’ve typed out an excel sheet for everything that we need to bring, thanks to a dear friend who […]

    I am so pooped!

    Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Just got back from Pulau Redang. Went fishing and ACTUALLY CAUGHT FISH!!! I am so pleased with myself. I caught ONE ikan kerisi (I have no clue what it is called in English but that’s what the boat men said it was!) - it was a beautiful silvery purple colour and we grilled it for dinner. […]
