Update: May 2nd, 2020



So....it was announced yesterday that things will be easing up a little bit over here in Malaysia when it comes to the Covid-19 lockdown. We don't know what the situation's going to be like because...we don't really know how to be human anymore. #lol

There's been some arguments floating around on the Internet. Some are 'for' the lifting of the Movement Control Order while others...not so much.

For: Because we've been locked-up long enough at home and we've GOT to resume life somehow. Things have been at a standstill and it's about time 7-11 returns to being a 24-hours convenience store, for Crissakes. At some point in time, before there is a vaccine, we have to be uncuffed. It feels like being locked up against our will, in all honesty. Come on, don't lie. You feel it too.

Against: If things go South again, we're back to square one. Considering the fact that the end of the fasting month is coming right up, I am not so sure, lifting the MCO at this point in time is a good idea. There'll be gatherings and no matter how close an eye the authorities have on those highly intent on going for an exodus back home or organize large parties at the end of Ramadan, there'll be a few rogues and renegades.

It's like asking us to choose between being free or being dead.

I don't envy those making those difficult decisions. Either way, they'll be making new enemies.

Anyway, on our part, we're just doing what we can to not die or expose ourselves unnecessarily. But I can tell you it feels funny when getting a packet of Mr. Potatoes and a cold cup of coffee from the store feels liberating.

What on earth... #lol

I heard Singapore's having it really bad these days. Neighbors, stay strong and you're going to be OK.

Meanwhile, over here, these exciting stuff's been happening in this household:

  • Watching the sun set
  • Watching YouTube concerts
  • Lazying around on the couch
  • Cooking, cooking, cooking, washing, washing, washing, cooking, washing, cooking, washing, cooking, washing...
  • Painting
  • Celebrating my boys' birthdays with Baskin Robbins ice-cream (because the cake shops and bakeries are friggin' closed)
  • Reading books
  • Catching up on whatever's on Netflix (randomly clicking on shows and then stopping)
  • Frantic grocery shopping
  • Watching things happen from afar and hitting Google with a search on what's happening
  • Playing with apps and downloading games I don't play
  • Singing karaoke with a smartphone app
  • Playing guitar and games
  • Searching up the latest news/announcements on the Internet (it can't be healthy - lol)
  • Waking up not knowing what day it is



Sounds fun, huh?

Anyway, we'll see what happens now. Schools are not opening just yet but some businesses are raring to go.

Hoping for the best,

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked what’s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it is…. If you say ‘ reading ’, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ….) and I also love mystery novels but it’s not the first on the list. If you say ‘ playing the piano ’; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), there’s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. It’s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ‘ writing ’; You’ve got to be kidding me! You mean I don’t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ‘ playing with my kids ’; Yea...

At Camp 5, 1 Utama: Kids' Rescue Mission

The kids had a wonderfully exciting day today. Now, this is as extreme as this mother is going to get. Mommy goes Paintball, kids go mountain-climbing...I think I've fulfilled the criteria of offering my kids a fun and exciting life as a kid. :-) It was one of their friends' birthday party and they're a little bored of KidzSports...that's for BABIES, anyway, they say. So, off to Camp 5 then, says the birthday boy's mother. Camp 5 in 1 Utama is located near Neways Karaoke, for those who have never been there before. It's a neat little corner tucked up on the roof of the massive shopping complex. Anyway, the kids had tons of fun although a little apprhensive when they saw how high the 'rock' was. It's actually quite neat and if I didn't feel like throwing up whenever up on higher grounds, I would have wanted to try it as well. The highlight of this party came in the form of a rescue mission. As we all know, when one is frighte...

When will Mariah stop flashing her boobs????

Mariah used to be my favourite singer of all time because she's got this amazing gift in the form of a voice that can go ANYWHERE but why oh why is she so obssessed with flashing those enormous peaks of hers everywhere...and why is it that all her songs contain sexual innuendos....touch my body is one of them. I mean, I love the song, I love the tune, I love the beat but PLEASE , Mariah, PLEASE .....why can't you be decent for once? I clicked to watch because I like the song and spent a couple of minutes crossing my fingers that she won't be flashing anything (FAT CHANCE!) in the video. But nope....no such luck. In fact, with a song like that, she goes even further over the top. Where got people answer the door in this type of clothing wan?? Is she for real??? I mean, in this video, she calls a technician up to fix her computer and she answers the foor LIKE THAT ??? Aish.... But the video was entertaining in a sense because the lam-chue-kok (male lead) is this geeky,...
