OMG! Malu!

I’ve always been a city girl and growing up in sunny Singapore, cows or cattles freely feeding in open land is not a common sight for me. Not that we have that many open land anyway .

So just like me, other Singaporean bred kids , I reckon don’t grow up with that sight either. So is it any wonder if a friend of mine who just returned from Malaysia messaged me one night and told me how embarrassed she was when her and her kids were visiting a cattle supplies farm and her son excitedly exclaimed at the top his voice “MOMMY! HORSES MOMMY! HORSES!”…

I don’t know who to sympathize with, the mommy or the son…

Cheerio…

To Extend or Not to Extend

When I was growing up, I had big bushy hair. It was jet black, dry and brittle. The only way I could really manage is is by cutting it real short or if it’s real long, to always have it in a pony tail. The funny thing was my late father was bald and it sort of run in the family coz my uncle were bald too and my aunts all had thinning hair. I thought for sure, the hereditary trait missed me and I had more of my mom’s genes in me.

Then as I get older, in order to control this voluminous hair of mine, I had to straighten it all the time. Failing which, I had to, again, cut it short. Now, I love having long hair. It made me feel sexy and I love feeling sexy..lolzz .. I don’t know if that was the start of the thinning hair coz after those hair salon session, I noticed that my hair started dropping. In fact, each time, I visited the hair salon, my hairdresser would tell me that there were lots of hair drops in the wash basin and so she would start suggesting all sort of tonic to reduce the hair loss.

Now, this might sound freaky, but at first, I actually enjoyed my thin hair. It was easier to handle and it was as straight as I want it to be. Also, I figured, I could always do hair extensions if I wanted to add volume to my hair whenever I needed it. What with the number of clip in hair extensions readily available out there in the market. I mean I don’t need to get human hair extensions and as long it looks real, I’m happy

Now, as I get real old, the hair drop kept continuing. I’m so worried that I would grow bald one day. Hmm.. any suggestion anyone? For you information, my mom has a full crown till today so there’s still hope I guess?!

Cheerio…

Please Be Quiet

If you know me, you know that I can talk. I can talk about anything under the sun and moon and no topic is off topic for me. Even if I’m not well verse with subject, by the end of the conversation I would be because of the questions I would have asked you. That’s just me. I don’t know if it’s a flaw or a weakness but if it is.. so I’m flawed. Sue me!

Anyway, this incident happened a while back, in our very first apartment. We were just married and I wanted to change the look of our bedroom. You know, I wanted a fresh new look. So we decided to change the position of the bed which literally means moving everything as well.

So there Azwaj was, measuring corners making sure we had all the space we need to move the furnitures around, and there I was yaking away, giving suggestions, changing my mind, giving more suggestions when Azwaj just landed on the bed on said:

 

“darling, boleh tak diam sat?”
~ meaning ~
“darling, can you like shut up for a while?” 

 

I was like “Huh?”.. got on the bed, and started muffling him with the pillow! . We laughed so hard after that and it was good one hour later that we continue with the move

Moral of the story? Let the man do all the heavy lifting and you go and make coffee for him when he’s done….lolz!!!

Hey, you know what, during the shifting around, Azwaj even found the gold chain that I had misplaced before. Yipee!!

Cheerio…
