Jerry starts drinking – KAMPAI!
Like father, like son. Jerry starts drinking young (haha! I meant to dig at the husband!). Over the weekend, we had dinner out one day in a restaurant and this funny kid of mine suddenly decided that with every single sip of water, he needs to kampai! Its super hilarious and entertaining to watch and we heard giggles from the tables around us. The best part? He insisted on finishing the cup water (punctuated with a kampai at every sip) before we can leave. It was one of those days where i wasn’t in a hurry to go anywhere and i just indulged in him and let him have…

Eating a cupcake THE RIGHT WAY – a tutorial on how to eat cupcakes
Yes. i mean it. I know right. How to eat cupcakes? You’ll be thinking, just open my mouth and eat. How else can i eat it? I found a great way to eat a cupcake and i think its fantastic. No more cream/icing smeared on your face or lips while at it. Clean, minimal mess and it got me thinking – why just didnt i think of it before?! You would like to know tooo? Yes? I brought home some cupcakes the other day. My favourite salted caramel and red velvet ones! The happy husband was really happy (actually he wasn’t because i only had ONE cupcake for him but…

Flashback Friday #4 – Have you seen a monkey with blue testicles?
with a subject title like that, i must have caught your attention… haven’t i? a monkey with blue testicles! heh heh. I’m just going to share the most extraordinary monkey i have ever seen, while holidaying in Zambia, Africa a couple of years ago. one with blue testicles! really! see? i aint lying.. I know i sounded perverted, but they are really fascinating to look at (the monkeys, not just the balls) and of cos, i had to snap some pictures! I guess no one would believe me unless i have pictorial evidence right? My uncles who were on the same trip as me couldn’t believe their ears when i…

Viral fever vs Dengue Fever – how to tell the difference?
So, after burning for a week on somewhat very high body temperatures (38+, 39+ degrees), slipping in and out of sleep cycles and losing out a lot on food (i barely ate!) and losing some kilos, i finally rid the fever and came back to work today. still sick, still alive but not really kicking. my throat still hurts big time, i talk with a coarse voice, i spit fresh blood-stained phlegm and swallowing is a real pain. and i also found out this morning, that one of my colleague thought i died…because of this news article that she saw. because i was having non-stop high fever. because i stayed…

the naughty Jerry.
this looks like its jerry’s bath time, but it is actually not. it was one of those days where i was busy pottering around the house, doing some chores and my boy was unusually silent. silence with him around simply means he is up to no good. and yup, i found him in the toilet, madly pumping on my self-foaming kirei kirei handwash and foaming up his own head. I had to strip him down and throw him into a tub to wash off all that suds! Look at that face. i couldn’t decide if im angry or its totally funny. and honestly, i’m torn between calling him naughty or…

conversations with the husband #3
Conversations with the husband #3 after a super frustrating bedtime routine with a toddler who simply refused to sleep for > 2 hours.. my tempers were flaring and I really was on the verge of strangling him or giving him away to another family. I was so tired, super sick and I badly wanted to grab some rest. so after loads of struggles, cries, whines, disciplinary acts and hugging daddy’s leg. I ignored him for the longest time and he fell asleep. in the above position, over my blanket but under my bolster. daddy and I finally sat down to have dinner at close to midnight, packed his school…

Jerry is the gentleman.
the other day when the fight happened, the husband and me were in discussion on the topic while strolling to the nearby mall to grab some necessities. and the husband went…. d: i think jerry is quite the gentleman. c: why? d: because… 君子动口不动手。 (literally translated as “the gentlemen uses his mouth instead of his hands” but meant to mean that the gentlemen would reason rather than fight) c: …… *roll eyes* d: ya what! he didn’t hit other people what. he bit the girl, so he used his mouth right? please tell me it’s a pain to deal with my husband sometimes. we sorta concluded that the fight must…

The funny kid.
I was looking through my old phone relatively new but retired phone (HTC One X) through the cracked screen and was backing up the videos onto my youtube when i came upon this funny clip. We took this while grocery shopping at the mall one day. The kid was overjoyed with carrying our shopping, and REFUSED to let it go even though he was super tired and dozing off! he threw a tantrum every single time we tried to take the bag away. Hilarious! it’s one of our favourite videos of the kid, so i’m sharing this with all of you. enjoy. p.s. the video is taken a while back…

The husband always wins.
[possible vulgar/dialect language ahead] The husband was bathing the baby earlier and required me to help. I was feeling lazy so I teased him about his capability.. You know, being an all rounder and wonderful hands on super daddy, but he insisted he would liked me to help. Me: you cannot do it yourself meh? D: no, I’m not as capable as you. I need you to help. Me: you very zhu eh! (I meant 猪／pig in this instance and trying to mock him of stupidity. It was also meant to be a pun because the husband’s surname is Choo /朱) 猪爸爸！猪爸爸！ I chanted non stop during the time I…
