October 08 Mother & Baby

Just got back from balik kampung and found this month's Mother & Baby at Amcorp Mall. I wrote a piece in conjunction with Hari Raya called Festive Fun.

Mystery package from A4trip

The guys at A4trip sent me a gift, how sweet of them! It's a little soft toy, a strange cross between carrots and a bunny. But, before it got to my house, the toy went on an adventure. The package wouldn't fit into my mailbox, so the postman knocked on my door. My dear mum who's wary of strangers didn't want to answer the door, so it got sent back to the Kelana Jaya post office. I booked a cab and went to pick it up the next day. I went to at least three different counters, before I was sent into the bowels of the post office, where thousands of letters seemed to await their fate. There, a postal officer rummaged through some steel drawers before he found my package, which was quite 'safely' hidden. Glad to report the toy's now safe in its new home. My son Amir (pictured below) named his new friend Kashi.

Headache...

I'm taking a short break from writing to concentrate on, and hopefully finish, my thesis in time for the submission date that's looming just over the horizon. Please wish me luck and strength!

That 70's show

These pictures of my husband still gives me the giggles...

The man who planted trees

Looks like a captivating play. Wish I could go see it with Amir!
