Triumph 125th Anniversary Fashion Show
Triumph celebrated their 125th Anniversary with a 30-minutes ensemble of their latest offering in 1Utama. When I ‘check-in’ on FB telling people to come over for a sizzling hot inner wear showcase, many were surprised and even sceptical that it is even possible in Malaysia, more so in the public eyes in a shopping mall! I have not witnessed an inner wear fashion show in public so was very excited anticipating it. Called Darling to […]

Exhilarating Exora
While others prefer retail therapy to calm them down, I like to rant in my blog! Blogging is therapeutically beneficial to my soul! Just the other day I was whining on how we needed a bigger car and just like magic, Proton Exora offered me to test-drive the Exora, Malaysia’s first home-grown MPV. Aiyo I tell you, if you followed me on FB you’ll know how I jumped at their offer! Terangkat babe! Macam tak […]

Romantic to the max! :D Buffet spread illuminated by candle lights They even organised an interesting activity to fill up the entire one hour. […]

Understanding Nuffnang to earn with Nuffnang
Why is it that each time I go for a blogger’s meet up, the first thing they ask me (after all the formalities) is, “How do you earn with Nuffnang?” I seriously think that this question is best forwarded to Nuffnang’s helpdesk as they are the right person to answer. Who am I to even attempt answering that question, right? But I do have my two cents worth though. Wanna know? Read on. Before you […]

I need a bigger car!
I don’t know how my Dad did it. He used to squeeze all five of us into his sedan (with pillows, bolsters and all) and drove us to some land far, far away and we survived the trip! He is still doing it now though this time I am rarely in his car anymore. I have my own family of 3 now and already we are finding it almost impossible to travel from point A […]

A couple of weeks ago a sudden gust of courage swept over me. I brought Ethan to Smaland and asked him if he wants to enter. Of course he answered YES! I was worried as he will […]

Night Glow – 2nd Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta 2010
First time we attended the Night Glow was during the 1st Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta on the 22 March 2009. Back then, we had ‘special’ passes to enter the area for photography purposes. This year, due to miscalculated ‘planning’ we went there empty handed and had to settle photographing it from outside, together with the public and the crowd. All throughout the Night Glow, the marching band from Falun Dafa made their rounds […]
