We watched The Batman last Thursday and I just loved it. Even though the screen was black most of the time (a pet peeve), I just loved the detective vibe of the whole show. Robert Pattinson is also the Batman that all women deserve in return for all the unsought...
Since Valentine’s Day fell on a Monday this year, J and I decided to celebrate on Saturday. With kids, schooling, Loki etc. it’s just easier. Early LaLaport is yet another behemoth of a Malaysian shopping mall built on what was Pudu Jail (I do not have plans on going or...
Thanks to the pandemic, I hadn’t seen my sister and her family for almost 2 years. So it was wonderful to have her back in Malaysia for 3 weeks in December. Thus the total blogging absence or so the dilettante desperately tries to justify. Haha. One of the many highlights...
Unfortunately for J, I have been obsessed with interior design since 1995 when I discovered interior design mags in the UK. I would give my parents’ house a makeover every night like a sleep meditation exercise. I still remember walking through Ikea in One Utama for the first time in...
After many years of saying that I would send the children for swimming lessons, I finally signed them up with Swimin12 at PJ Palms Sport Centre. Yesterday was the first of 12 paid lessons following which I am guaranteed that they would be able to swim. If they can’t, they...

On a car ride a few years ago, I asked my dad a random question in my usual habit. “What is the one thing you wish you had learned but didn’t?” His answer was playing the piano. The Gift. He was unsurprisingly really happy when the neighbours gave him their...
On our ROMniversary this year, my weekly cleaner broke the wedding cake topper that I keep as momento. It was not the first time, so the damage was pretty bad. Both bride and groom decapitated. Hands and arms broken on each. Bad omen? I definitely wondered. However, putting it all...
Well, at least now it is. On Tuesday night, I had the craziest dream. I dreamt I was having a face-to-face conversation with a beautiful Beyoncé looking tenant with a full afro. She was moving out and taunting me about not planning to clean the room she rented. I was...
Hauntu Last Friday, we did a small firm event which was organised by the lawyers for fun. The young’uns chose an immersive horror house experience at the Linc in KL called Hauntu, followed by dinner at De.Wan. I naively thought that as I approach my 40s, I have matured enough...
