Children’s Birthday Parties
Just for the record, I have attended close to 30 birthday parties this year and just last weekend, had FOUR. You do the math. I'm just saying...... It's really quite ridiculous.

Have you watched Ju On?
I am terrible with horror movies. It is a case of I want to watch but then I am damn chicken shit scared for the next 2 months after, as I have a photographic memory and shit, you have no idea what image flashbacks one gets with that!.......click to learn what next.
Suffering from Psoriasis
I was recently told by my dermatologist that I suffer from Psoriasis. Soraya - what??!! Before then, I'd never even heard of the word. Now that I have, every thing that is wrong with my body is coming together and it all makes sense. I have stress induced.......click to learn what next.
Scrimping on handphone bills
Usually, I have pretty average mobile phone bills. I only call a hand full of people and because I hate using the phone to talk, don't use it much for that purpose. What I HAVE been doing a lot lately is sms-ing, only because we are in the.......click to learn what next.
A visit to the Trinity Children’s Home
After watching Little Orphan Annie and a million questions later, Tee decided that she wanted to give all her Christmas presents away this year to an orphanage. Over the last few weeks, she has been talking about the orphanage and asking many questions, like who loved them and.......click to learn what next.
Artist at work
One of Tee's hobbies is painting. She can paint anytime if I'd allow her to. If only we lived in a house, I'd allow her out to paint every single day. Get out of my hair! Just get out and paint! Or get out and do whatever! Eat.......click to learn what next.
Putting a four year old down to bed
Is like me losing 20 kilos this year *stoned look* Last week, Tee missed ALL her classes because Mommy was too tired to drive the Mommy Taxi. Mommy has been busy sorting out other people's problems and it is tiring. Naturally, the knock-on effect to this is that.......click to learn what next.
My mother’s stupid helper
You know, I've heard a lot of stories about helpers and maids, whatever you want to call them, but I don't think I have actually met a more stupid maid as the one working for my Mother. My mother has never screamed so much in her life and.......click to learn what next.
People who get too big for their boots *vomit*
Do you know any? Let me tell you of just 2 that I know. NS (nose shit?) used to be a poor little girl whom I grew up with. For some reason, she was a very insecure girl but who am I to judge? Throughout her teenaged years,.......click to learn what next.
The many uses of a vibrator
The Hubs was complaining that he needed a massage this evening. He never needs a massage. I flopped down onto bed and said I needed a massage too. Whilst the both of us laid on our tummies, Tee crawled and walked along our backs. For seven seconds before.......click to learn what next.
Happy Halloween 2008!!!
Today, Tee gets to dress up as Vampire's Bride for a Halloween competition of 80 children. Wish us luck!
Confusing rhymes
Tee is very good at composing lyrics to music frequently making up her own songs (that rhyme even) to existing tunes. She can even compose her own brand new tunes. However, despite the many times she has understood what a rhyme is, she still sometimes gets it confused.......click to learn what next.
I’m missing my bedroom TV
We used to have one till it went bust. All 3 of us miss it tremendously. We've been eyeing a new flat screen TV ever since. I think we're going to get one soon!! I'll wish it to happen!!! I need my massages back!!!
Hiring a helper for my own sanity
I'm 80% sure that by the end of this year, I'll be filling in forms to hire a helper for the Lee Household. I've taken care of Tee single-handedly for a whole four years and feel that it is time. Despite the Hubs's severe need for privacy around.......click to learn what next.
Making time for people you love….
Have you ever been down and out and close to thinking that life is no longer gratifying, and that every corner you turn throws you a hard punch on your nose, and you feel so alone because nobody really understands what it is you're going through, or how.......click to learn what next.
Two must haves for child rearing
Apart from our genes, these books have played a big part in my bringing Tee up. Baby Hearts Secrets of The Baby Whisperer I highly recommend it to every new mother.
Someone else blogged about Tee :-)
Someone I've known for 22 years. "On an aside, I had lunch with an ex-schoolmate of mine from secondary school days yesterday - and it was great fun to catch up with some gossip - who's up to what now - reminiscing about ex-teachers - catching up on.......click to learn what next.
My legs do the walking, and my Indian blood does the talking…
Apart from requesting for pear balls for breakfast, in our extreme haste, Tee just HAD to bring her little bag out today. I explained to her that all we were going to do was run around doing some errands and pick her grandparents up so there really was.......click to learn what next.
12 hours with my in laws from Kota Bharu
At 9am this morning, Tee and I dashed out the door like professional sprinters running errands for the in laws, and I kissed my husband's toes for canceling the plumber's visit today as I really would have broken down to the floor and cried my eyeballs out. After.......click to learn what next.
Sneaky little girl
Yesterday, when I told Tee I had to go somewhere to collect some books, she requested to stay in the car whilst I ran up to get the books. There was no way I was going to leave her in the car so I said she had to.......click to learn what next.
A morning at the fish spa
I spent a lovely morning here where little fish bite the dead skin off your feet with three other lovely ladies. What can be greater than spending a lovely morning with lovely ladies?! Guess where I am??? Initially it was ticklish as hell (and I'm really not a.......click to learn what next.
A Question for God
Just before bed tonight as usual, Tee said her prayers that included a long...................list of thank you's. It's good, this thank you thing. It reinforces her gratitude for certain things in her life, like her wonderful Mommy and her best Daddy, ever. Since her list was especially long.......click to learn what next.
How to tell if your child is being stimulated at school
If your child (well, four year old that is, I can only speak for four year olds right now), gets enough sleep throughout the night (ie 12 hours sleep straight or 12 hours inclusive of daytime naps) and is STILL feeling tired, it probably means that they are.......click to learn what next.
Why I am always stressed out
. . . Tee barely ONE YEAR OLD eating pasta. . Licks her bowl clean like a dog.... . . Then pours everything else out onto ground, table, clothes, everywhere. She then rubs her hair into the pasta pretending they're beads and thinks it's funny. NUFF SAID. ........click to learn what next.
Our co-sleeping journey……
Why is it that children like sleeping with their parents? I don't remember ever sleeping with a parent (but hey, that could be due to severe failed memory loss). I certainly don't wish to sleep with my parents now. *cringe* It really is a dependency, isn't it? I.......click to learn what next.
Weekend of Woe approaching…
Just as last weekend was bliss, this weekend is loaded with Tee's activities ALL OVER AGAIN. We have a puppet show in the morning, then we go to the childrens library, then Mommy has some girly thing in the evening. And on Sunday, we have another horse-riding birthday.......click to learn what next.
Astro Channel 313 TVB8 – who has this?
The reason I ask is because Tee is coming out this Sunday, October 19th, but I don't have this channel!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tee playing dress up !!!
Just look at my little monkey. Of all the dozens of dress up outfits there were, she always chose the tomboyish ones. She is just naturally not so into princesses, mermaids and fairies. She much prefers Power Rangers, Sponge Bob and Ben 10. Who???? I have no idea......she.......click to learn what next.
Little girl hair stylist transforms Barbie head to Chucky
I'm sure you've seen those doll heads where kids get to dress up. The ones where they pull and squeeze and twist the fake blonde hair till they eventually get bald? I used to be Tee's live head and enough was enough, despite how short my own hair.......click to learn what next.
What to do on a lazy Friday….
After an exhausting week, I was so looking forward to Friday, where we had nothing planned. No classes, no school, no play dates, no parties, nothing. We could sleep in, laze about and make sure the plumber knows what he's doing. You see, we've had many leaks around.......click to learn what next.
