I haven’t been blogging here much recently, but that’s because I’m busy enjoying my pregnancy and blogging at my other blog — MUMMY TO BABY. XD This is my first time trying out writing with a theme. It’s pretty much a blog that shares information about pregnancy and parenting. A lot of baby-related stuff there. This will still be running…
what’s in your heart?
I’m halfway through a rather interesting anime titled ココロコネク (Kokoro Connect). At first I thought it was a romance anime, but it turned out to be not quite that. It’s a little deeper than just about the friendship between five high-schoolers. These five friends find themselves in unlikely situations all because of a spirit called Heartseed, who is able to control…

finding the time to invest
I have been a full-time housewife for a while now. While most would assume that I’m living it up, I’m actually gaining knowledge on personal finance and investment. Of course, I still find the time to do a lot of leisure things that I wouldn’t be able to do previously. During the day, I read finance blog articles and one…
three’s not a crowd
Finally. I’ve been waiting to do this for a long time now. Having observed the first trimester wait, I proudly announce that hubby and I are expecting our first child. This was my little announcement via Instagram and Facebook: Unfortunately, some didn’t understand this picture. I think it would have been clearer with shoes, but we haven’t bought any baby…
it isn’t the same i suppose
Humans are humans. We are biased just like that. Something mildly amusing happened to me this afternoon while I was opening a checking account at one of the banks. This lovely bank officer girl was serving me and of course like all sales staff do, she tried to sell me something else. She was explaining that they have a savings…
tired of the world
Just watching the drama on Amos Yee unfold on Facebook. Some of us would recognise him as the boy who acted in Jack Neo’s movie. If you don’t know what happened, Amos got arrested for posting a hate video where he rejoiced over Lee Kuan Yew’s death and made some remarks about the Christian faith. And this is not the…
pray for me, will you?
I initially wanted to post a follow up entry on Lee Kuan Yew, but something else came up this morning that bothers me a lot. I don’t want to talk about it now (probably will in time to come). Just pray for me, will you?
thank you, sir
Yesterday, Singaporeans woke up to the grim news that our founding father had passed on. I knew that it was just a matter of time, but I still felt a little tinge of sadness in my heart. We may disagree with some words that he said, even to the point of resentment, but we cannot deny that without Lee Kuan…
spring time at starbucks
Every time March comes around, I get pretty excited because it’s time to check out the spring time merchandise at Starbucks! Specifically, the Sakura series. It started out in Japan, but slowly other Asian countries (including Singapore) caught on. So what’s this year’s picks? Starbucks Japan Bolder colours like hot pink and yellow seem to be adopted for this year’s…
