After loading our tummies with the home-cooked CNY meal that my MIL prepared, we were all ready for some horizontal activity, like meditating in the yoga corpse pose. Heh. It was 11.30pm-ish.

The three of us, the Hubs, Tee and myself, dragged ourselves to our bedroom and collapsed onto our mattresses that was calling out to us. It was bliss. A great day, great food, great company………we were in food coma with full bellies.

Then. At exactly 11.35pm, I repeat, pee-am…..

A loud thud followed by rampant door knocking pinched our bodies with fear. Alarmed, the Hubs swung the door open when Ama shouted out something and ran downstairs.

What in the world was going on? I wondered. By then, three heads were up. Vertical.

The camera! The camera! Quickly! Bring the camera!

Camera? Oh God. What is it this time? What could they possibly want to photograph near midnight?

It turns out, they wanted to photograph this plant of theirs, some magic flower plant that only flowers once in a year and only for one night. The sweet smelling magic flower plant is fifteen to twenty feet tall. Can someone please tell me what the name of this plant is? Anyone?

It was dark as hell. Yet, my beloved in-laws rushed out with ladder in tow and started climbing. May I remind you, it is almost midnight, when most of us, especially in ulu town Kota Bharu, are way in bed snoring.

Can you see Kong-Kong below perched on his blue ladder? They were So, SO excited that their plant flowered and they had caught it!!! Man!! So this is what gets people in Kota Bharu out of bed at night. Such a simple event caused such a commotion. I just could NOT see what the big deal was. But I remind myself that this is Kota Bharu and there is absolutely nothing happening here. Except for blooming flowers and a brand new TESCO (we’ll leave that for another day, shall we?)

As for me, it would take a thunderstorm of Godiva to get me going. Yeah…..Godiva milk chocolates raining down to get me excited out of bed at 11.30pm. PEE-AM!!!

Who is Mamapumpkin?
Mamapumpkin spent 7 years in London committing crimes to gain her Bartlett degree in Architecture. She then spent 7 years as a Stay At Home Mom raising her children as documented in this blog of over 15 years thereafter returning to the Corporate World stronger than ever as the Country Director of a British Multinational. She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.

Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.

She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.

A beautiful life without limits.

If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.

Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.

Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.
