My birthday has come and gone. My parents, my sister and CL (my sis boyfriend) came to Jakarta the week of my birthday. It was really fun not to mention really tiring. What more can I say about Jakarta but the food and the shopping, not forgetting cream bath and massages. […]

I am fast approaching 30.  Oh my god!!!!  Time is passing.  I don’t think I look old, I don’t feel old but I am really getting old.  Its really kind of true when people say that after you hit 25, what ever that comes beyond is going to hit you really fast and hard.  I […]

I did hear from people that I should not talk so much to my driver or helper at home.  But I can’t help but talk to my helper since she is the only one around at home.  People did say that I should not step into the kitchen that often and leave more of the […]

I think its really nonsense but after a trial of about 1 week, even I have to admit that such is possible. Did I mentioned that my toilet got choked and the toilet was flooded with water from the toilet bowl? Well the engineering people from my apartment derived that the reason my […]

Drove back from a friend’s place after dinner yesterday.  Its been a long time since I drove a manual car, add that to the traffic condition in Jakarta, it was a hell of a ride.  Good thing dearie was beside to guide (shout occasionally ).  Unlike Singapore where you need to watch out for […]

Been trying to cook recently or rather I should say learn how to cook.  Burnt the guo tie last saturday, the kiam chye has no taste today (cooking bak ku teh).  What else can go wrong?  Maybe the rice will be burnt too later?  It was supposed to be a teochew bak ku teh meal […]

Venture into the wet markets today at Chinatown or rather an area call Pluit and a market call MuraKarang.  Went with my helper and driver to the wet market today.  Was literally stuck in the jam for 1 hour before we arrived at our destination.  When they came up with the term “wet market” they […]

Was chatting with a friend over MSN, which made me think about mid night suppers in Singapore.  Thats one thing I am beginning to miss.  The convenience of living in Singapore.  Typically here in Jakarta, I realised that its not that people don’t drive around at night but rather where to go late at night?  […]

Just finished watching “24″. I know, I am a little out-dated given that having first started showing in 2001, its already into its 6th season and here I am only watching season 1. Its a really intense serial that will keep you wanting to watch it continuously just to know whats going to […]

Well lets call our new car Papa Smurf.  Papa Smurf is finally here.  It ID is XX33.  So for those who wanna strike it rich this saturday, email me for the first 2 digits.    Will post its suave picture when I get a chance
Now I don’t have to test luck everytime I attempt […]
