Sick little boy

Teary eyes, runny nose. That's my little boy now. His eyes is so teary and wet, the tears just roll down his cheek like it's the most natural thing in the world. Yeah, talk about gravity eh. I don't blame it on the ice-creams or the cold drink he had, because he had them so very often, I don't think that can suddenly become the culprit. Well, just blame it on the bad weather, can?
Ok boy, we need some flu medication for you. Great, another trip to Guardian Pharmacy. If we go there any often, people might start thinking we're homeless.

I want a new HDD

It's almost 2 weeks now, and my personal computer is not fixed yet. I sent it over to the pc guy 2 weeks ago, and I haven't heard from him ever since. It didn't help that he was and still is very busy with his Microsoft seminars, or he totally forgotten about my pc under his bed. Well, I think so. I cannot find a better explanation when hubby asked what took the pc guy so long to get it fixed? Some minor problems with the Hard Disk Drive and problem with Internet connection. If it's such a hassle to get it repaired, then maybe I should call to get him to change to a new HDD, since Hard Disk Drive are so cheap nowadays.
It's even cheaper if he were to get the Discount Drives straight from the computer parts dealer. Those days, it cost thousands to buy a personal computer, but nowadays with a budget of a thousand ringgit, you can actually get a very good and high performance pc. Enough said, I'll call him first thing tomorrow morning. I'm so sick of waiting.

Not my favourite day of the week

Life on a Monday is usually the same for me. ::yawn:: I'm sure most if not all people feel the same way. I must say that though I'm not a working mother, I hate Monday just as other people on earth. It's like you play a video of yourself for 7 days in a week, and come every Monday, you repeat it. ::yawn again::

At least my Monday wasn't that bored, I went shopping. Bought myself a pair of black heels at 50% discount, Eubos Body Shampoo for Shern which is oh so expensive, but he has been using it since he was a newborn, so just stick to it for now. Oh, I reformat my iphone too, after I noticed that it hangs so very often, and thanks to Steve, he installed lots of new applications for me. And he even taught me how to activate my EDGE which I never knew how. Oh no, just as I finished typing that sentence above, my iphone hangs again. Bugger. I'm getting sleepy, I'll just leave everything else for tomorrow for now. ::yawn::

Off they went to China

Some might think that now is not a good time to go tour China because of the recent earthquake but that's what my close family just did. They landed safely in Shanghai last night, checked in to their Cheap Shanghai Hotels, all inclusive in their tour package. They'll be there for 10 days, 9 nights, with a tour guide to bring them about.
You might be wondering why are they not in Beijing, seeing that the Olympics will start soon and the city has undergone marvelous transformation over the years. That's because holidaying in Beijing right now is very expensive, it might be easier to look for Cheap Beijing Hotels but everything else is just much more expensive than other big cities in China. Nowadays, more and more people would rather go shopping in Hong Kong, though one might say that it's impossible to get a decent Cheap Hong Kong Hotels. Who knows? But if you were to ask me if I would rather go shopping in China or Hong Kong, I'll surely go for Hong Kong. There might be plenty of Cheap China Hotels but shopping experience is Hong Kong is incomparable to shopping in China. What do you think?

The Zero fare deal

AirAsia is having a free flight promotion to Perth. Ticket is absolutely free, travelers only need to pay for the tax and airport charges. The last time I checked, tax plus airport charges is within the range of RM500-RM600 which is dirt cheap. We went to Perth last year for my brother's graduation, all 9 of us stayed at my brother's rented house. Free Perth Accomodation, how could we resist?

Anyway, we're lucky that we have relatives all over the places. So, whenever we travel, we always could stay over at relatives place. This way, we get to save tonnes of money in terms of paying for the hotel and spend it on enjoying good food and entertainment too. I'd love to travel to Sydney one day, to my sister's in laws place. One thing for sure, I don't have to worry about Sydney Accomodation because she will take care of it. Some might not be so lucky to have relatives overseas, so they no choice but to stay in a hotel, but from my experience, it's better to check hotel rates online before making any bookings as hotel rates such as Melbourne Accomodation and Brisbane Accomodation varies depending on season.

Why am I the only one getting diarrhea?

My day didn't went as well as expected. I had a very bad episode of diarrhea. Yes, very bad. Do I need to elaborate more? I don't think so. We had plans to go have tea, eat roti canai, but I was so sleepy, I wanted to take a five minutes super nap but it turned out for a decent 1 hour. And when I got up of bed, the sky was dark. No, I didn't take such a long nap I thought. Oh ya, the sky turned dark, and it began to pour. I rushed to the toilet and there I stayed for a good 30 minutes. In my head, I kept thinking, what did I had just now that upset my tummy so badly?" I just don't know, because everything I had for lunch, the entire house had it, so why just me getting diarrhea. Whatever. We'll just have to keep our plans for another day.

I refund Meiji Pucca

Meiji Pucca Choc Pretzel

No joke. We went shopping for groceries today. My little boy did a little shopping for himself, he took yakults, 6 cups of yogurts, 2 trays of tou foo ( one of his favourite food), 2 boxes of Nestle Mat Kool Icy Grape and Superblaster, and also a packet of Meiji Pucca Chocolate. I didn't bother to look through what he chucked in the shopping trolley until much later at the checkout. For crying out loud, this Meiji Pucca is 5 ringgit! Not that I cannot afford buying it, I think it's a rip off, given that Meiji Hello Panda which is equally nice is only selling about 2.20-2.90 ringgit max.

Meiji Hello Panda (vanilla flavour being my favourite)

I refund it. Who cares, it's my consumer's rights. I like I buy, if I'm not happy with my purchase, I refund no matter what the amount.

Every little girl's dream

It is every girls dream to grow up to be a princess, with the diamond tiaras, jewelery, nice puffy dresses and all. But that dream hardly comes true. In real life, a princess life is not so magical after all. They are subject to constant scruteneering by the public eye, and has certain standards and obligations that they must adhere too, they might not be able to go shopping like us, without their bodyguards tagging along 3 feet behind them. So consider yourself blessed if you're just a normal citizen like me, we might not have as many pearl necklaces, but otherwise, we're perfectly happy, aren't we?

It is understable to hear a 5 year old little girl address herself as a princess, even my 3 year old cousin thinks that she's Cinderella, everything she owns has a picture of Cinderella or Snow White on it, be it a pencil case, her school bag, her dresses, even her pyjamas. And worse, she insists that her mother buys her a fake Chocolate Diamonds tiara and a magic wand. My oh my! Kids like that sure got too much influence by watching cartoon. Nevermind about that, they are just kids right. But what I don't get is, why some parents did the extreme by naming their baby girl 'princess'. Come on, think about it for a minute, when she's one or three, if might look totally cute to be called a princess, what about when she's in her thirties or forties, calling someone a princess will just sound so silly, like hey "Princess Tan". Big Eww. I will never ever name my daughter 'Princess'. That is just so lame! Enough said for now, I'm still hoping that one day, I'll have my own daughters,

It's been a great day for us here

I spent so many hours in bed today I almost neglected my son. Poor boy. I was just so sleepy, even after so many hours of sleep, so when hubs was taking a nap, I jumped into bed with him too. How nice is it to curl up in bed with your dearest husband? Very nice! :) But I consider today a great day, cos we brought the kids for gelato ice-cream at one of the bakery in the neighbourhood, I must say it tastes damn good and dirt cheap too. What about 5.90 for 2 scoops? Good deal eh. You know you have to pay 10.90 for 2 scoops at the shopping mall. Altogether we had 6 scoops, between the 5 of us, plus many slices of cakes and buns too. Burp! And for dinner, hubs brought us for a very hearty meal. Burp again. Hope your day was a good one too. I love public holiday!

Men who cheats

I wonder if those husbands who has love affairs actually feel guilty about cheating to their wives? I bet at some point, their wives will eventually find out. At that point, is it too late to live with the regrets? I wonder. But I'm sure it's not entirely man's fault. Sometimes when two people see too much of each other, they tend to develop a feeling for each other, people like bosses and their secretary or personal assistant. Call it lust. Especially when they travel often together on business trips, stay in Hotels in Rome, the romantic city or Hotels Amsterdam the Sex City, thousand of miles away from their wives, it's all too easy to break the rule.

Not only that, some husbands love to have their little weekend getaway together with their girlfriend in Hotels London just to be away from their wives. That's absolutely unfair to the wife. Why not end your marriage so your wife could go on with his life rather than all wrapped up in your lies while you're away at some Hotels in Barcelona kissing some other babe? Come on, give everyone a break, can?

Free flights everyone!

So what if Air Asia advertise FREE FLIGHTS TO ALL INTERNATIONAL ROUTES, the thing is flight ticket might be cheap, but you know the real cost of traveling is paying for the hotels? Say, you pay for a 300 dollars flight ticket to Rome, but you have any idea how much a night stay in Rome Hotels cost? You know you won't travel half way around the globe just to be in Europe for a day. So throw in the cost of having to stay in Dublin Hotels and London Hotels, that getaway sure going to cost you an arm and a leg.

Just a little advise from me, advance hotel booking saves you a lot of money and it's much cheaper than those walk-in customers rate. And especially in popular tourist spots like Paris where Hotels Paris are always fully-booked, you must always plan your trip, there's totally no point of traveling when you can get cheap flight tickets but ended up with no place to stay.

Now I know, being fat is not OK!

I've been feeling like I'm 100bricks heavier now! I can now feel the pain those obese people are going through. Not the physical pain, but the emotional stress that they have to carry around. Phew! Though I'm not THAT fat I need therapy or a bypass surgery, I still feel that I can be a lot more better than this. Sigh. Life is no fun when you have excess fats you hang around your waist. It's not so much of how people uuhhs and aahs about how much weight you've gained, but because I'm a superbly self conscious person, people don't even have to tell me that, I can see that "YOU'RE FAT" message written exclusively for me, on their forehead.

Therefore, I'm determine to get back into shape. Say, signing up for GYM! Oh, my mother won't even believe me if I were to tell her this. She has been pressuring me so much to exercise/ sign up for gym/ do sit ups/ go jogging but everything she said fell into deaf ears. I was like, it's my buldging belly and not yours, so if I'm ok with that, why not you? Finally I know having a bulging belly is NOT OK. I've came back to my senses. She's 101% right, clothes fits just so much more better and prettier on a nice body minus a flabby tummy. Hahaha. She's going to be very happy for me. I just know it.

All mommies having issues with daddies

I've been blog hopping a lot today, that's because I'm quite free today. Common topics I see are all Mother's Day related. Some mommies, like me, expected our husband to bring us to nice expensive dinner or buy us expensive pressie, I mean really expensive type like piaget watches. No doubt, everyone ended up in disappointment when our husband did nothing to cheer us up on Mother's Day. My husband is honest enough to tell me that if I'm ever expecting any present, then I got to wait till our son is old enough to buy me one. I think he meant that our son has to be old enough to appreciate me as his mother! Well well, I get that. What can I expect from a two years old little boy now. But still, I'm the happiest mom on Mother's Day because my son wished me Happy Mother's Day, he even throw in a great big hug and a kiss on the lips for mommy dearest. I love you, darling!

Malaysia Ex PM now a blogger

No one is too old to blog. Ahem, like our all time favourite ex Prime Minister who now has take up blogging, I totally understand his wise decision. Nowadays, the Internet plays a very big role in influencing people's mind, because everyone is free to speak up. But of course, bloggers must be wise to tackle their topics unless they don't really mind ended up behind bars. Totally serious! Unlike in the press, where even daily news must go through certain level of scrutineering before it ended up in the printing line. Most of the things we read in the papers are only a little icing on a big slice of a cake. Having said that, we citizens really have no idea what's baking in the big oven up there. No one gets to see it, let alone share a tiny chunk of the cake. Well well, who I am to complain, really??

To Paris I want to go

We've been talking about going on a Paris trip since we first started dating, Now, 7 years later, we still haven't been there together. Hubby used to travel a lot to Europe for his business trip alone, he always chose to hire a car so that he can drive around France, given that it is easy to drive around because they have one of the world's most systematic driving system, and highways that takes you anywhere you want to go. Oh remember, France drives on the right side of the road.

On most trips, hubby never booked his hotel rooms in advance because like he said, Paris Hôtels are aplenty, and furthermore, it is more convenient to stay in hotels that catered to road travellers like him. Besides that, you'll be surpised that such hotels like Toulouse Hôtels and Marseilles Hôtels offers very affordable rates. I've been there once, and given that that was the first time we were in France, we did advanced booking on our Bordeaux Hôtels, because none of us dare to risk sleeping on the streets. If only I knew hubby back then. Nevermind. We'll go there again sometimes.
