    Posted on Monday November 16th, 2009 at 10:43 in shopping

    One of our apartments has been vacant since beginning this month. We are praying that it will be occupied again soon. If not, we have to fork out our own pocket money to pay for the home loan. So, for the time being, anyone needs a place to stay wh...

    At first I thought my 6yo art class starts at 5pm. Only realised that it only starts at 5.30pm when we were about to leave the house. After sending her to art class, my 5yo n I went to Tesco for a free photo shoot. You can get a free 4R photo for eve...

  • Check Your Bill When Shopping in Giant

    Posted on Sunday September 27th, 2009 at 07:20 in shopping

    The price stated the price tag is not the same as the price scanned by their barcode scanners. This has happened many times; not only to me but to others too. For example, the price tag shows the price at RM2.69 and when paying the actual price on th...

  • Vacation in October

    Posted on Wednesday September 16th, 2009 at 00:19 in family, shopping

    “We might be able to go somewhere this October.” hubby said. I am so happy to hear that. This would mean that we would have our family vacation soon. Riviera Maya sounds nice but the time has not come yet for us to enjoy staying at Azul B...

    Posted on Friday June 19th, 2009 at 19:33 in shopping, finance, business & work

    As some of you might have known that I have booked a flight to Kuching next month. Flight ticket paid. As of now, really have no mood to travel because it would mean I need to spend not just ten or twenty ringgit but at least a few hundred ringgit. T...

    Tada! Here’s my very own Elba Electric Oven; model EO-3586. Bought it at Carrefour at RM259.00. Considered a good price because at Jusco, it was RM279.00 and HSL Electrical shop RM270.00. Thank God both places have no stock. If not bought from ...

  • Fulfulling My Children’s Dream

    Posted on Monday April 27th, 2009 at 19:30 in family, shopping, finance

    As a mother, I give in to my children’s request more than saying “No”. If it is within my means, I will go ahead and make them happy. If not, I told them “One day when Mommy have enough money.” We are flying to Kuching a...

  • Not Flying Yet

    Posted on Thursday April 23rd, 2009 at 18:29 in family, shopping

    Haiya! I am too late. Remember that I mentioned that I will be bring my kids to fly to Kuching this coming July because AirAsia has good bargain? Only RM650 for 5 adults and an infant. Then, I could not make the booking because my baby is still not...

  • More Blessings

    Posted on Sunday April 19th, 2009 at 01:22 in family, shopping, finance, home improvement

    I really Praise God for His blessings. Not only He blesses me with a beautiful baby; exactly like what I prayed for but a speedy and almost painless child birth. He also blessed me financially. For the first time, I received so many assignments from ...

    Posted on Wednesday April 15th, 2009 at 09:06 in family, shopping

    Almost everyone I know dream of going for Europe tour. I am one of them too but I guess, as for me family comes first than my own wants. However, every time I read about someone blog about their Europe tour and their experiences and the cost is not t...

    Since I am still around and not sleepy. I took my nap at 11.30am today! I am planning for a short family holiday before baby starts on solid; hungry only, shove him my tit-tit. And when he is still light to be carried in a baby sling. The place I wa...

  • Car For Hire

    Posted on Thursday April 2nd, 2009 at 10:23 in shopping, business & work

    I am not so sure whether I blog about this before. I am very forgetful these days. Once No. 4 comes out, am sure going to be more forgetful! Baby going to suck my brain out! Anyway, about 2-3 months ago hubby’s eldest brother ventured into car fo...

  • Baby Sling or Stroller

    Posted on Tuesday February 24th, 2009 at 20:08 in woman, shopping, health & fitness

    Which one is more convenient? To get a stroller or baby sling. If I want to buy a new stroller, it must be a jogging stroller so that I can jog with baby and get back my pre-pregnancy shape again. Well, I guess both stroller and baby sling has diff...

    Posted on Thursday February 19th, 2009 at 22:51 in shopping

    In less than 2 months, our fourth baby will arrive. I doubt I will still shop for this baby as I already have so much hand-me-down from my older children. Probably there is less excitement since this is my No.4, ahem… Although I do not normally...

    Posted on Tuesday February 17th, 2009 at 18:41 in shopping, my life

    I grew up as a tomboy and dancing was really not for me then until I met a special man that changes everything. I was 15 then and he was a freelance dance instructor. He is very friendly, caring, graceful and most of all he is a man! He encouraged me...
