The HB and I had quite a bit of discussion pertaining to recent events happening in Malaysia. Merdeka 2009 didn’t feel very Merdeka-ish to us, especially for the HB.
And then I watched this clip after chancing upon it on Pinkpau’s blog. This video cheered me up somewhat. Sigh. Why can’t we be a better, more [...]

Warning: Long ranty post ahead. You have been warned.
Its 6.31pm as I write this. I am seated on the bed, and outside, the sky is a gloomy grey. It rained cats and dogs a few hours ago. I actually like days like these. The cool air is such a joy, and the rain always seems to [...]

I thought it would be a good idea to finally use one of those precious pre-mix sauces that I brought from Malaysia. Seeing how cold it is today, I thought a little spice can provide a little kind warmth.
Now I’ve always heard people wax lyrical about Brahim’s pre-mix sauces, so I bought that particular brand [...]

So I was surfing online today, and reminiscing about my school days. It has been ten years since I left school.
Out of sheer nostalgia, I googled “TIGS 1998″ and voila, the official website of my secondary school popped up. Wow, the teachers have their own email addresses, there are links where students can download previous year’s [...]

It is what I would like to believe anyway. Things have been going really well for me lately. After all the unbelievable trauma I had to go through, things really are looking up for me. I found (and married!) the love of my life. I cannot begin to describe how utterly happy I am with [...]

Wow. That sums it all up. I reached Italy on Ferragosto (Assumption Day), 15th August. It has been 24 days since I left Malaysia, and today is the first day I actually have time, “proper” to sit down and blog. One might wonder, what on EARTH do I do everyday to be so occupied? Well, [...]
