the melodramatic mouse is now mellomom
In less than an hour, my country celebrates its 51 years of independence. While most Malaysians are out somewhere – getting ready for the millions worth of firework actions – I am at home with the husband, typing this. I admit, I do not feel the excitement of Mer-de-ka. Do you? Should I, you and [...]
I’ve been sitting on an entry for a week again. I’m loosing my edge at this blogging business because I am boring. Literally. Last week my mother told me that she’s going to Paris next week, and that day is today. Two hours ago, I was sitting in her living room watching Rachael Ray on [...]
If you haven’t caught the Clay-bug by Hotlink yet, you ought to be. It’s quite cool actually – available from 10.00am to 8.00pm, this specky-girl moulds your request with clay. Doesn’t she get tired? At 5.05pm, I saw that her list was quieting down and the request line was opened, so I popped in mine. [...]
The first time I watched The Joy Luck Club on TV, it was playing on MegaTV – I was in Form 4, and I was sixteen. It has been more than a decade passed, and still, it has the same affect on me. The story that Amy Tan wrote was more than just a story [...]
Looks like it’s been another week since my last entry. And a lot has happened so it means I should have plenty to share. Ironically I have no idea how to put it down in words, so it shall remains as an emotional overdose instead. I’ve been living up to – pretty much sums up [...]
I missed the beach. I can’t believe that I actually said that, but yeah, I missed the sand beneath my feet. And it’s been one whole week since *pouts* Hadn’t been much inspired to write, less blog – hence the week long void. The three sentences above are as much as a week old. I’ve [...]
After twenty years of flying outbound – what a show off *schmuck* – I am finally flying inbound for the first time. And where to but the beautiful – it better be, with its new name – jewel of Kedah, Langkawi. This would be my third fly-away this year. God knows I need a holiday [...]
The verdict for last night was – enjoyable. This is the problem whenever I get too excited and have a certain expectation for everything under the sun. The musical was the entire Disney’s animation in flesh – word for word, which surprisingly still fresh in my head since std6 – with a few new songs [...]
I was reading jokes earlier today while trying to keep sane at work. The husband pointed this morning that I’ve been rather bitchy to him melancholic this week – the melodramatic mouse in action – so what better way to chase the blues away, but with a little humour. Some men were discussing the Bible. [...]
