By now, I’m sure you’ve heard that a prominent Malaysian blogger have joined the opposition party and is raising funds for his campaign through his blog. Jeff’s official line is, “Get a Blogger into Parliament. Jeff 4 Malaysia, Donate, Volunteer, Get Involved.” Hmm… very persuasive.
Who wouldn’t want a blogger in parliament? Think of all the [...]

Two years ago, I was invited to attend a beautiful wedding in Shanghai. As usual, the bride looked gorgeous on her big day. No one could tell she was hospitalized just a few days before for severe gastritis which was induced by the stress of planning for the big day.
As any other wedding, she was [...]

I have so many bank accounts and bank cards, some times I forget one or two is due for payment. That is why I was so surprised to receive this:-
At least it isn’t pork’s blood splashed on my door! Did you notice the kind advice to sign up for free credit counseling and money management [...]

Not your every day pizza. This one is home baked by a friend of my mother.
The pea looks a bit dehydrated, doesn’t it? But let’s not judge the pea by its cover skin.
I thought the abalone will be overly chewy after baking but it wasn’t. I love the creamy cheese sauce that coated it. It [...]

I know I don’t look like it, but I am very very very clumsy. Countless times I’ve knocked over Nic’s fragile treasured possessions - his PDA, Hard Drives, Car Alarm Remote, and sent them flinging across the room.

In my home, six. One to teach. One to learn. Four to observe it while it cooks.
I learned that the hardest part about making kaya is the stirring. It burns too easily. You need strong arms to scrape the bottom of the pot non-stop for forty-five minutes.
There are only five ingredients. Cream from 3 coconuts’ [...]

So yesterday, I discovered that my friend who is working as a plumber’s apprentice in the UK, is making a truckload of money. Approximately RM15,833.575 a month, if you want to count the shillings.
However, even though he makes a truckload of money, his cost of living is also pretty high. Renting a room or buying [...]

When I landed my first job, I was very disciplined. I was offered a salary quite a lot higher than most of my peers which made it easier for me to save.
At that time, I divided my salary equally into three portions. The first 30% is sent to a separate account for savings. The second [...]

Last night, I forwarded an article from GetRichSlowly.com which reviews Dave Ramsey’s personal finance system to my family members. I sent it to them because I love them and I felt sure every one can benefit. I’ve read of Dave for a few years now from various blogs and I know he is a guy [...]

As I blog and reminisce about my breakfast at the Old Town White Coffee cafe at East Coast Park, I couldn’t help drooling onto my keyboard. To make matters worse, there’s the delicious smell of fresh home baked bread wafting out of the kitchen.
So what could I do, but make my own?
