The husband was a bit late and I was left waiting outside the Iraqi Embassy after my replacement class at Goethe today. The Iraqi Embassy, which is right across the small street from the Goethe Institute has bigger and more shady trees for me to seek refuge from the ‘5 pm but still quite glaring [...]
Narnia 2 about the Prince of Caspian is quite good. Not fantastic but it caught my attention during last night’s midnight show. The husband was trying to decide Iron Man or Narnia2 or that Drillbit Taylor. None would matter to me cause if I had my choice, I would go for an INDIE film but [...]
Today we found out that in about 3 weeks or so, Goethe Institute Kuala Lumpur will be moving into a new building in some menara near the American Embassy. That’s kind of sad to hear because their present premise in Jalan Langgak Golf is very cosy and for the past 1.5 years I have spent [...]
The other day while driving to breakfast, the husband said, ‘ You know, this day and age, people can befriend other people from some far away lands and talk to them, read about their lives a few times a day, but do not even know the names of their next door neighbours’
‘ Are you talking [...]
Tomorrow, the teachers in Malaysia will celebrate Teacher’s Day. I was reminded of it by the boy I am homeschooling. Back in my hometown, we celebrate Teacher’s Day on 1st September, so I usually cannot remember the celebration in May here, although I have been here for 2 years already.
I remember a really long time [...]

That is always the feeling I get after dinner at our favorite cafe, Teak 5. Birds of a feather flock together as the saying goes. If back home I like to eat Nasi Rawon, Nasi Jenganan, Nasi Ambeng, Mee Siam, Nasi Sambal Goreng etc, it is not that easy [...]
… and all things nice. Indeed.
Watched 2 French Films in two consecutive days. Undaunted by the first one which we didn’t enjoy, I went to two more on my own as the husband decided he has better things to do. Last night was Love Is In The Air, a hilarious romantic comedy about a French [...]
5.20 am. I just had my sahur, as I planned to pay back the days I missed fasting from last year’s Ramadan. The soft and soothing recitation of the Quranic verses forms my background music as I am typing this, coming from the nearby mosque. Very soon, I will hear the azan for subuh being [...]
In training still…
This clump of flowers is smaller than my thumb but I guess this is the best I could go with my camera.
The husband said for this one below I need to improve on the angle and the lighting, whatever that is.. :S
A flower within flower. Also very tiny .
Oh by the way, Mum, [...]
‘ So you gonna blog about it? ‘ asked the husband.
I missed my German class this morning by choice. The husband woke up with high fever and bad flu which he had since last night. So I thought I’d just give the class a miss and stay home with him. After all, today is mock [...]
