1. I saw little shoots finally appearing on my mango tree. I thought I had killed the tree by cutting off the branches in Dec. Thank God it is slowly growing back. The little shoots are so cute😍 (7th Jan)
2. I took Rowie to the dentist today. Before this I looked at her tooth and thought the only way to salvage it is to extract it. I prayed so hard that everything will turn out ok. It did. The young dentist managed to fill the big hole up. 3 fillings within an hour and it was over. No drama. Thank God. Phew 😇 (15th Jan)
3. I came to klcc with KC this morning. He has to attend meetings. Shops are still closed now. I sat on bench overlooking the giant gold coin rabbit in klcc park. Nice weather. No crowd. Birds chirping. Relaxing. ☺️ (20th Jan)
4. My calligraphy teacher let me write 8 characters. I started with 2 characters in June 2022. Then I moved on to 4 characters. Only my seniors were writing the 8 characters. They have been learning from my teacher for years. I have only been learning for less than a year. A big sense of achievement 😍💪 (4th Feb)
5. I spent 2 hours alone in Tsutaya Pavilion Bukit Jalil. Had matcha lemonade and classic dorayaki. Had a relaxing time, finally got to browse properly. Reminds me why I love books and bookshops 😍 (5th Feb)
6. My breast ultrasound came out normal. The lesion is still the same size. I had lunch at Sushido, alone. It was relaxing to sit alone facing the sushi conveyor belt, enjoying your food. The crew preparing the food seemed to enjoy working there. They sounded happy. Struck me that it’s nice to be in a place where the people working there were happy. Will try to lunch alone there again (10th Feb)
7. When I passed by the little garden on the road behind my house, I finally met the man who planted everything there. There were many types of vegetables. The kind uncle even gave me seeds of 4 angle beans and local 山药. 💐😇 (10th Feb)
8. I was in 擎天冈，walking along the vast grassland. The setting was like something out of Lord of the Rings. It was just 6degrees, it was extra chilly with the wind. Still I love it there. Walking alone in the cold. ❄️ Thankfully my husband could stay with the kids. I didn't walk to the top. Save it for the next trip. (20th Feb)
9. When Wei and I walked into the grand hall of 天元宫，I told her she needed to pray. So she pressed her hands together and said: Sejarah pass🙏. (20th Feb)
10. I took half day leave today. Had birthday lunch with BeeLui at One Utama. After that I took the mrt down to Bukit Bintang. Walking in Bukit Bintang always makes me feel vibrant. Lotsa young people, tourists. Spent a few hours in Eslite, slowly going through the shelves. Bought a book by 青山美智子. Maybe it's the brighter lighting, I enjoyed walking at Eslite more than Tsutaya. Nice afternoon. (21st March)
11. First day of Ramadan. Even though it started to drizzle, it was not enough to stop me from going to the bazaar. The number of stalls in Setia Alam seems to be more than last year, but the overall space allocated to the bazaar seems smaller. More stalls will come in tomorrow, I told myself. There was even Nasi Rahmah sold at the bazaar, just RM5, like Menu Rahmah. I was happy I made it in time to get ondeh ondeh from legend melaka. They were there like last year. I bought tepung pelita, tauhu begedil, the spicy egg kuih, sirap bandung cincau and ondeh ondeh for the girls. If life was a bitch, all bitchiness can be cured with the sweetness of tepung pelita💕 (23rd March)
12. I claimed 4 pints of free ice cream. 2 from the ice cream bar and 2 from inside scoop. All from answering their surveys. (8th April)
13. Rowanne bought a sticker pack for Reiley today. It costs RM5. This is the first time she has ever bought something for her sister. So sweet 💕 (13th June)
14. Reiley wanted me to pick her up from school today. Traffic was bad due to the rain. I chided myself for giving in to Reiley's request, yet again. I was warmly surprised by the great smile she had as she was running towards me when I finally arrived. It was as if she was 3 years old again. So cute. 💕 (1st August)
15. Today I met my ex MH client - Pete. He was going to the Talentcorp office at Surian Tower. I was on the way to feed birds with expired Gardenia bread. We headed to Coffee Bean for a good 45minute chat. He bought me apple juice while having cappuccino and muffin. We talked about general stuff. He has always been an interesting character. He was wearing 2 watches, one on each hand, to test which is more accurate. Great to see him again 😊 (23rd August)
16. I drove to office today. It was at the first toll that I realized I left my Touch n Go card at home. I was panicking. I had to reserve and go to the last lane to pay cash. And there was another toll to go. After I passed the second toll, I was so frustrated at my myself that I growled in the car. I still had to figure out how to get home later. Iny moment of frustration, a red car with the number plate xxx721 moved in front of me. I was instantly touched. It's the sign. God was telling me it's ok. He was there with me. I nearly cried. Luckily I managed to get a new card at PETRONAS near my office. 🥰 (2nd Oct)
17. I wanted to fry an egg tonight, but it rolled down and broke on the floor. Reiley helped me to clean it up. She comforted me by saying : 不要不开心，那粒蛋本来就是要破的，只是它早一点破了。 what a philosophical way of looking at it. My baby so smart 🥰 (3rd Oct)
18. GroupM Nexus had teambuilding in Port Dickson for 2 days. I went with no expectations. It was great fun! I did kayaking in the swimming pool as part of the race event. It was hard trying to manage the kayak together with my partner, but it was great fun! Ego was set aside and our team focused on getting the tasks done. Good experience and great teamwork. My roommate didn't turn up and I had the room and toilet to myself. 🥰 (15th - 16th Oct)
19. I was driving home from office after 6.30pm. when I was on my favourite stretch of DASH, suddenly the street lights were lighted in an instant. It was like a switch was flipped and suddenly the highway was all warm and nice. WOW. 🥰 (7th Dec)
