' I will not play at tug o’ war.
I’d rather play at hug o’ war,

Where everyone hugs

Instead of tugs,

Where everyone giggles

And rolls on the rug,

Where everyone kisses,

And everyone grins,

And everyone cuddles,

And everyone wins.'

Some love from Taiwan ♥

A very late update about my trip to Taiwan with my family. Had an amazing time with everybody on the tour not forgetting our lovely tour guide Batu. We ate until our hearts content trying things I never ever tried before.  Some of the more bizarre ones were chicken testicles, pork kidney and some Taiwanese fat snails. Sounds pretty disgusting but they really were pretty good. not so much of the kidney though. (: One thing i've noticed about Taiwan is that they have Seven-elevens literally on every street. But I guess that is their form of Mamak stores like we have here. We spent 3 extra days in Taiwan to visit my aunt and her family. It always feels good to spend time with loved ones and for that I am grateful.

Thank you for everything , xoxo

Roses are red

Back in Penang at my grandmother's to celebrate Chinese New Year with all the extended family. Red is THE colour as usual, hence the red nail polish and of course, my favourite team jersey.  Literally dressed up in all red for my trip back to Penang on new years eve. I had red sandals on, a red handbag in one hand and a red laptop pouch in the other. I predict a very prosperous new year ahead of me. Or at least i hope so. (:

新年快乐, xoxo.

just for you, xoxo

Way back when

best friends do come in pairs. meeting the old made me miss the new that much more.

Had my primary school gathering at TGI's  yesterday. Can't believe it has been almost 8 years since most of us even met each other. There were some familiar faces and some to the point where I could not even recognize. But the nostalgic feeling of the past and how we still call each other by our mandarin names still leaves me with a fuzzy feeling inside. We talked and laughed and made fun of all the little things we used to do way back in 2003. We lost track of time and ended up heading home at about 2 in the morning with sore throats and husky voices. Good times. <3

good memories of the past , xoxo

I use to say I and me, now it's us, now it's we.

Christmas is just around the corner and I have yet to start on any of my Christmas shopping.

 Not good at all. Christmas feeling this year seems to be lacking for some weird reason. Hope it all settles in real soon. Looking forward to a great Christmas filled with classic Jim Reeves Christmas carols, a tummy full of Sputnik and Sugee cake and a year supply of joy and laughter from all the loved ones. My boy's leaving for the states to continue his studies real soon. I sincerely wish him the best because I know that's what he's be working for all this while. But I'm gonna miss you. so much. You and me, the memories we've had, too many to even remember. We've been through the high's, and of course, the low's, it was tough but i'd do it again with you because I know that was what made us how we are today.

Girls from Venus.

Had the most amazing girl time at my friend Ivy's. God knows when i hung out with girls since my two best friends left me for Cardiff. haha. But it's all good now. We started off our day with some Tepenyaki and shopping in downtown Kuala Lumpur. Then we headed back to Ivy's to get all dolled up for our lovely dinner at Leonardo's Bangsar. The pork platter we ordered is a must have if you visit there. Even thinking about it now is making me drool. Our night ended with some Baileys, Absolute Citrus, snooker, crazy card game, play dress up and most importantly, great company.

Aren't girls the best? xoxo
