Lately, my eyes have been getting itchy and watery. At first, I thought it was a mild cough and cold symptom, but it’s been lingering on, and it got me wondering if changing my eye creams had anything to do with it.
Then, I realised it was the emergence of spring that’s probably causing it. The [...]

Over here, we are going through water shortages, due to the severe drought for the past few years. It’s been quite drizzly the past week, note I said, ‘drizzly’, not actual rain in true Melbournian sense. So, everyone is doing their own bit to save water. I guess, ultimately, this benefits everyone, even if the [...]

Last Sunday, I drove out all the way to the Outer Banks Melbourne City, just to look at a pigeon hole.
Yessss… a pigeon hole, that was supposed to house students. It hasn’t been built yet, but I can foresee how rectangular shape this building will be. Why? Because the land used to be belong to [...]

It’s Day 7 of Sleep Training 101.
I know, Kid no.3 should have been already sleep trained since he was born. But guess what? For the longest time (well, 7months ++), I’ve been sending him confusing signals..and I guess that’s why he was never fully trained yet.
I’d lull him to sleep with McBoobies…when he’s in deep [...]

I think this next summer will be very intense. As per my previous post, our world has been drastically affected by pollution. Last summer, there were some days where it hit 40°c. Man…the heat was searing and our boys were practically bathing in sweat everytime we go out. Being a third hand car, our auto [...]

My No.2 is going to be three soon. This reminder came by when I saw birthday posts written by Amah, Barbara and AnnieQ. Their lil tykes’ birthdays are just a month+ before mine and there I was, just coasting along, not even thinking about it.
Now, I’m in a slight panic mode because I know I [...]

I know once we get our new home, one thing that’s been on the back of my mind is, which I’d rather have - curtains, blinds or shades. One of the things I have to factor in, when it comes to choosing, is that the Australian Sun is very very very strong. I find [...]

My sister-in-law just got back from her overseas holiday and happily declared that she finally got herself the Coco Chanel Madamoiselle Parfum in a duty free shop. She had purposely waited to travel overseas because she did not want to buy it from the retail store, which would be at a recommended retail price.
I should [...]

I just saw Cashmere Mafias. What is it? About 4 successful women who make it in the ‘real’ world, and one of them got engaged on the pilot episode. She ‘announced’ her engagement to her friends by showing off her Diamond Engagement Rings, where they oooh-ed and aaahh-ed over it.
I wondered if she bought it [...]
