Update: I put my photos on Facebook so they’re here if you want to take a look at brainy stuff. I got the flu bug and now I am feeling completely buggered! I don’t know if going for my Thai massage on Monday had anything to do with this but it seems all toxins have …
Read MoreGotta Love a Man Who Bakes 4
I realized that a lot of things can be therapeutic and relaxing. For me, it’s beading (that’s making earrings with bling, lots of them), crochet (all I wanna do is amigurumi, that’s cute animal creatures instead of some huge shawl or pullover), gardening (I find peace in weeding and killing mealy bugs) and of course …
Read MoreOne Girl’s Dream… 3
Woke up to an excited SMS this morning. Jana’s SMS read told me to read The Star, particularly Anthony Thanasayan’s Wheel Power column (he’s her friend and like her, he is also a local councillor but for a different district in Selangor). I called her the minute I finished reading “Abby’s Dream” (which you can …
Read MoreUnleashing the Mind at the Festival 2
I will be attending, no, helping out during this weekend’s Festival of the Mind at TAR College as a result of my usual busybodying. (This is what happens when you are the unofficial committee member of Mensa Penang by virtue of your husband being a committee member!) But lest you think that I’m being dragged …
Read MoreTell Me, Is A Good Man That Hard to Find? 33
My question again: Is a good man/guy that hard to find? No, I’m not going to have a mid-life crisis. I am asking because it seems that a number of women and gals I know (and who are perfectly OK in every sense) cannot seem to find the right guys to date or settle down …
Read MoreA Special Children’s Sunday 10
I was invited for the Handicapped Children Centre’s Open Day and Concert a few days ago (Sunday morning) by Josephine. She’s volunteering with the centre and told me that the children, all 63 of them, had put so much heart and soul into this open day. I dragged Nic along that morning, knowing that yes, …
Read MoreFull Moon Celebration with the Colonel 7
Nic passed me a rather large looking angpow last night. A message stuck on the back of it – “Thanks for celebrating the full moon with me, mummy and daddy!” Inside the angpow were 2 KFC vouchers! Nic’s friend had just given birth to a baby boy and like all friends, we had chipped in …
Read MoreDiamonds Over Tea 0
This whole week has been work, work and more work so I was quite happy to let go of all that and go do my other stuff – you know, my WomenBizSense stuff. [By the way, Kristine announced that WomenBizSense will be given a spotlight at next year’s Business Card Festival that her company is …
Read MoreMy Favourite Chinese Foods Which I Won’t Ever Eat 2
If you are 30 years and above and Malaysian Chinese, you probably will know what I am talking about. I started off responding to Marsha’s comment on this blog post about made in China ice cream. Then I realized that hey, it could be a blog post on its own. You know why? If you …
Read MoreWhat 30 Not So Desperate Housewives Did 5
Tell me, will YOU be free on 2 November? Will you be in Penang on this date? If you want to do good and pay it forward, please spread the word that the Buddhist Tzu Chi organisation will be having their annual charity sale at the Pesta Sungai Nibong site from 9am to 3pm. The …
