It’s her candyland in her barbie world…

A few days ago, I received an email in my mailbox from Minah, one of the coolest ‘makcikrock’ I’ve known back from my hometown. It pointed to me to the news site and the article written by KhartiniKhalid on TheMalaysianInsiderdotcom entitled Proud To be A Malay Singaporean. I read it once, as a passing through [...]

New kid on the block

I’ve not touched our trusty oly for quite a while. It has served us really well and we have been to places with it, not forgetting the two times it came in handy in two minor road accidents we met with in the last two years. But oly has reached its twilight days and recently, [...]

International School

I live in a neighbourhood where it is quite common for students to have their own personal drivers to send them to schools and then after the various enrichment classes their parents fancy. Violin? Piano? Ballet Academy? Kumons.. you name it. In fact for some of my own students, I often have to pass notes [...]

A cat-ty situation

We have a bit of a situation at the moment. Our little Tito started howling since yesterday evening, around 5 pm all the way till this morning at dawn. Which really means that none of us could sleep. 
He is 13 months old as of this month. Which means it is high time he reaches puberty. [...]

Wear and tear

I don’t expect to say this as early as now. But I am noticing white hair sprouting here and there. So reality bites. I am no longer a spring chicken as I would like to think myself as. And today I notice I have a kind of pain each time I go up and down [...]

A note to my other half

I like Bill Cosby. I think he is hilarious and my liking for him precedes my liking for Will Smith. I have a thing for black comedians I supposed. Bill Cosby was quoted to be saying :
For two people in a marriage to live together day after day is unquestionably the one miracle the Vatican [...]

Post

I kinda like the idea that she won. Maybe that would also start a new fashion line for tudungs. There are tudungs Siti, tudung Ekin. But tudung jambul shah/i/zat has yet to materialise as the ‘in’ fashion statement.
But him winning brings about a lot of mix sentiments. The plot thickens. But maybe he won’t be [...]

Kemaruk

Still on this polyvore thing..
For a weekend outdoors. I like fuss free outdoorsy style because I prefer the outdoors and prefer casual than being dressy. Hence the look. Oh I can dream about a baby pink blackberry can I ?

If I were still in school…

Just getting the hang of this polyvore thingy. It is quite fun actually. And it is free and doesn’t clutter the home with fashion magazines. Not that I buy fashion magazines to begin with. Let’s see, if I weren’t a hijabi, I would probably wear this on a long Monday in campus. The colours to [...]

Fan club

There is this aged old grandmother who sits outside the bank selling an assortment of kerepeks/kerupuks. She’s so aged that when she walks, her hunchback is obvious for all to see. Her crinkled skin hangs losely upon her thin bones and she has very few teeth left. She wears a ‘tudung selempang’ on her head [...]
