Bird Brain

A small tiny wee green bird flew into my flat on Thu afternoon and didn’t know how to fly out. So, seeing how ‘rare’ this bird is in my neighbourhood, my mum cleverly put it in a makeshift ‘cage’ so that I could see it when I came home. It really is quite small and...

Domestic Help withdrawal

My helper will be flying home in Oct and I’m already dreading the thought of not having her around. I will have super withdrawal symptoms…at the risk of sounding really spoilt, here’s the list of things I’ll have to do once she’s gone: I’ve got to walk Baileys everyday for at least an hour after...

Chin Up

What do you do when someone makes you feel like the stupidest person in the world but yet tells you that you’re intelligent at the same time?

The rainy cool weather is screaming, “Come on, take a nap” but then my to-do list stares...

Nationality identity crisis?

It has happened again. Met a new friend for dinner last night and she asked, “Sorry Melissa but…are you Singaporean?” -__-; I replied, “If I told you that I’m partially Peranakan, would that make sense to you?” Her answer was a very earnest YES. I brought home made gado-gado to the office for lunch one...

Tired…sleepy…zzz….

I went to bed early last night (and by early, I mean 11.30pm) because I was tired and thought that I could get some extra winks.  I was sadly mistaken.  I was rudely awaken at 3.30am by loud and sharp sniffles which were interspersed with coughs.  Yes, my maid (who sleeps in the same room...

What a week

Phew. I’m so thankful that this week is over and next week will be a short work week!! I love long weekends. I need to sleep more… I’m now at a dilemma. My domain hosting for oopsiwannasay.com is coming up. Should I renew it and just continue with it? Or should I cancel it, get...
