Those M&S Undies
So, it seems the secret’s out: M&S undies are no longer as good as they used to be. It must be true, if Jeremy Paxman says so!
Of course, Mr Paxman was talking about male undergarments. You know, boxers and socks and things like that. I couldn’t possibly comment on the state of M&S boxers and […]

Weekend
I know that it’s sometimes better to say nothing rather than blathering on about nothing, but as I still want to try and blog everyday for as long as I can keep it up, I just want to say, have a good weekend!

Hmph.
Hating work at the moment.
No energy or inclination to do anything beyond what I have to do.
Can’t be bothered to look interested in things and push myself forward in meetings so that my profile “shines”.
Annoyed that I’m somehow cast in the role of having to work out why people should continue working on something when […]

Nothing much
Not much to write really, but since I’m still trying to keep up my resolution of a blog a day, nothing is what you get. Having said that, today I’ve bought some Lego stuff for my nephew (he’d better love it!!) and am in the process of sorting out our travel arrangements between Singapore and […]

Penat
Oh my god. This is the first day I’m fasting to make up for missing days and boy, was it tough. How am I ever going to manage fasting when Ramadan comes around this year?
And before you people in Malaysia scoff, Ramadan is projected to fall at or around the 1st of September this year, […]

Yawn Yawn
So there I was on the Central line this morning, still trying to wake myself up from my usual morning stupor. Opposite me was a blonde woman, who was probably a few years younger than me but was smartly turned out.
It was shaping up to be the usual non-eventful journey into work, when it happened.

Hair Tales
You know, it’s funny. I spent years, nay, decades, fighting my hair because I wanted what it could never be.
See, I have Malay hair. You know what that means. Kembang* hair. Flyaways. Frizz. Wiry. Wavy. Sometimes, depending on what my hairstyle was, I had rambut berketak**. Oh yes, thick hair. In fact, bundles of the […]

Sigh.
Since I can’t think of much to write about today, let me just ask this question: why oh why oh why do Aeroline, the coach service that hubby and I are planning to take from Singapore to KL at the end of the month, have a ridiculous luggage restriction?!
(Oh yeah, am going back to The […]

Scrabble Schmabble
One of my other new year’s resolutions (yeah, I forgot to include this one on the list!) is to try and blog every day again. The only thing is, it’s not every day that I feel inspired to write about the great and the good, and today is one of those days, so this is […]
