The Muggle Has Finally Watched HP7!!

Date:18 December 2010

At last... After 1 month of waiting, I finally watched HP7 at the cinemas. Many attempts before this were met with disapointments. Although the whole world have seen this movie by now, and would be saying "That's old news man! Stop embarassing yourself!".. I really couldn't care less. The movie was great great great and it was a good idea to split the story into 2 parts. The previous movies did not meet my expectations because they skiped so many scenes. The storylines moved too fast and may confuse the viewers who hadn't read the books first. At some points, they got a bit boring. However, this time, I can't wait for Part 2!!

Thank God it's still in the cinema after exactly 1 month of being released in Malaysia

Halfway through the movie, Hasben asked, "Which 1 is Voldemort? Is it the guy without the nose?" It was so funny... On the last HP instalment, he's still confused, haha, poor thing!

I read the first HP book when I was 14 and immediately got sucked into the fantasy world created by JK Rowling. She was so creative and her writing was humorous, never failed to made me laugh.. Especially with the ear wax flavoured candy. Me and DD used to imagine that our school was Hogwarts and we had Moarning Myrtle in the girls' toilet. We were a bit sad when we finished reading the 7th book as there was nothing to look forward anymore, magic wise.

The saddest children book ever - Bye-bye Harry and gang!

So when they decided to make the Harry Potter movies, you can bet we were super excited!! Now that the last movie will be released soon... It's sadness all over again!

Recommendation: Must must read the books! They are way better than the movies... Let your imagination run wild!!

Hello Second Baby!

Kimi will be 3 soon and guess what, he is also a newly-appointed big brother! This time around, Prince Court is not in the picture - being full-time students, we can only afford to attend Toowoomba Base Hospital, a government hospital so this will be a whole new experience for me, not to mention being in a whole different country! A little park in front of the hospital: I had my monthly checkup at USQ clinic with Dr. Kay Brumpton, who is amazing by the way. And towards my second trimester, I had monthly visits to the hospital to see the midwives. This is the waiting area at the Antenatal Clinic: And that's Kimi climbing over the door of the play gym. Adventurous...! Being Asian, and smallish (even for an asian), my baby was measuring a bit small than the average Aussie. The doctor was a bit concerned and had me do 3 ultrasounds. Back in Malaysia, ultrasounds were performed during every single monthly check-up, but here, they feel that 1 is good enough, unless

Book: Sushi for Beginners

Date: 24 December 2010 Author: Marian Keyes She is definitely one of my favourite authors ever. The first book from her that I read was Under the Duvet, and the second was The Other Side of The Story - both I borrowed from UTM's library. She writes about characters with real life issues and manage to make the situation light although it's actually a dark topic. At the end of the day, readers will learn about complicated issues without feeling depressed. She delivers the message and adds humor to it - just brilliant! Plus, I learned a few Irish words! Sushi for Beginners is about the lives of 3 different ladies, all facing depressions. Different characters have a different coping mechanism. Synopsis: Lisa, a beautiful, career oriented lady is the b*tch boss from hell. She'll do whatever it takes to be the best at what she does, even if it means having no friends and family. The thing that drives her over the wall was when she actually sacrificed her marriage to

Melbourne, Australia

Melbourne Weekend Getaway! Date: 13 May 2011 It is not often you hear someone say, "I'm going to Australia just for the weekend". However, it actually happened to me, not intentionally, but accidentally... I booked my flight ticket (in August 2010 for the lowest fare possible!!) without double checking and ended up with only 2 full days to spend in Melbourne. To make the best of it, I pre-booked full day tours for both days... which left out any opportunity for Melbourne city sight-seeing - how sad! From LCCT, KLIA to Melbourne Airport, it took about 8 hours flight - which I can't sleep for most part of it!! - and the time difference is plus 2 hours from Malaysia. Date: 14 May 2011 Upon arrival...   Hi Mr Sean/Chin! We were greated by Ms Candy who showed us to our maxi taxi. The driver was Mr Sean/Chin (didn't quite get his name) who was from Cancun, China. He was friendly and energetic. He dropped us of at Punthill - The Stanton at St Kild
