Project Runaway - Pillow Version

Me and My Fluffy Pillows!!

I am a specific sleeper... which means, I have problem sleeping if there was something not quite right with my sleeping arrangement. I am soooo  loyal to my pillows, you will see why...

During one movie night with Julie Zac - watching Eat, Pray, Love - me the multi-tasker performed my first Project Runaway for my 16 year old bolster... yup, 16!! My mom bought it for me when I was 11 years old in the year 1995. The cloth was so old and already disintegrated that when Hasben pulled it out from its case for laundry time, the bolster broke in half! By the end of the movie, the bolster was good as new, and more cylindrical than before! Yeah!

Too bad I didn't have the 'before' picture...

The second Project Runaway - Pillow Version was for my leg hugging pillow (bantal peluk kaki) which I can't remember when exactly I owned it. The only thing I am sure of, is that it is so fluffy that no one is allowed to use it except me. It too was aging, with the same symptoms as my bolster. During one of my comfy nights, I accidentally tore the edge. Poor thing...


This time, I took pictures of the "make-over". I bought a 1 meter cloth from Kamdar and wrappd the pillow up.

The torn edge... =C

While watching Toy Story 3, the sewing begins... and finally, with its new outfit, my old pillow looks so sexy!! You probably want to hug it because it looks so yummy... but you CAN'T! Hihihi...

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
