Life as a parent is a beautiful whirlwind of emotions, filled with moments that make our hearts swell with pride. Here are some updates on my daughters, each carving their unique paths in life. Cass, my resilient figure skater, had a big day today. Rising with the sun at 6 am, her dad sent her…

Big Rat In The House
Someone did it again. After sneaking out my favorite Whittaker’s hazelnut dark chocolate bit by bit on a daily basis and finishing almost the entire bar, she left one itsy-bitsy piece of chocolate in the Tupperware container for me. Because she was scared I would reprimand her for eating chocolate everyday and say that she’s…
School Holidays Activities
While Alycia hibernates in her bedroom revising for her trial PT3 exam, Drama Queen spent her time baking in the kitchen and Cass did what she loves most ~ burying her face in her novels and making a ‘Massage Coupon Book’ for me Other than working out at the gym for 1-2 hours daily and…
After School Snacks
Wednesdays are CoCo (CoCurricular) days. Drama Queen and Cass will be home late, at around 4ish pm. Whenever they are back from school, they look and behave like feral dogs — they will dart straight to the kitchen to check every nook and corner in search for food. At the sight of food, they will stuff…
Holiday Activity – Cookie Baking
This idea was entirely Drama Queen’s. And I entrusted her with the entire task as I knew she could handle it pretty well. Except for helping her with the oven and checking on the doneness of the cookies, Drama Queen enlisted the help of her 2 side-kicks on this holiday cookie baking project today. She…

The Girls’ School Sports Day
We reached school before 7am this morning for the girls’ sports day and spent 7 frigging long hours in school!! Today is the day that the girls have been waiting for months. They have been diligently practising the Sports Day dance and running events for many months. While today is the day that they looked…
Little Kitchen Helpers
The girls helping koong koong and granny in the kitchen yesterday, in preparation for our Dongzhi festival dinner at home in Ipoh… The girls helped to scrape arrowroot skin and to remove peanut skin. While they were helping, granny fed them with papaya haha! I have made it compulsory for the girls to eat fruits…

In the morning, BY – Sherilyn’s BFF since pre-school came to our house to have a pre-party girly preparation. BY helped Sherilyn paint her finger nails and choose her clothes for a ‘fashion show’…
Haze Holiday – 25 June 2013
The girls have been getting bored and restless today, which is the second day that they are kept away from school due to the haze. Besides watching TV, playing with the laptop and doing some work that I have given them, they goofed around and played ‘Getting Married’. Alycia : “Sherilyn, do you take Jonathan…
Girl’s First Train Ride
I had wanted to bring the girls for a train ride from KL to Ipoh since KTM launched the ETS (Electric Train Service) not too long ago. Apart from the monorail train ride in KL, the girls had never been on an inter-city commuter train ride. Since the girls’ grand aunt was able to accompany…
Bye Bye Angry Birds, Welcome Smurfs and Animal Kaiser!
Why We Love Wednesdays and Saturdays
My girls love Wednesdays and Saturdays. That’s because they are my Princess wannabe’s ballet class days. That’s when she gets to meet her fellow ballet classmates, who all seem to possess the same style and traits as her. They say birds of a feather flock together, how true this adage is haha! For Alycia and…
Nasi Lemak Crazed Girls
My 3 girls are great fans of nasi lemak. Even Baby loves eating “nashi lumak” and can chomp down a small bowl of the coconut milk rice on its own. Alycia loves spicy food and can stomach the sambal and chicken curry. Sometimes when the sambal is too spicy for her, she will gasp and…
Jelly-Crazed Girls
My girls are jelly-crazed. They love all types of jellies, especially those colorful ones in a small cup. But I don’t like the idea of them eating those as no. 1 there is chocking hazard and no. 2 there are too much coloring and food additives in these jellies, expecially those that are made in…
