Durian

Durian, glorious durian. As I stand at my garden, the irresistible whiff from across the road greets me.

Right across where I live lies a 'RM9 eat all you can durian' stall. I've been dying to go for it but my body screams 'you are on a diet!'.

For you my friend whose physique can afford the extra calories, make your way to USJ12. The stall is right across Petronas, next to Wawasan primary school.

Toga top

STRIKING is possibly the only word that I can make up for this toga shirt that's going for RM39 only. If you are ready to splurge a little more, they have gorgeous looking jumpsuits. All fresh from the oven.

Frankly, I'm not big on accessories. But I can't resist this charm bracelet. Filled with cute trinkets that brings me back to my childhood. What more if it is going for RM13 only.

Crop Jacket

You know what I love about treasure hunting? It's the joy of spotting one and sharing it with the rest. Here's a classic treasure - brand new but the owner feels it is too baggy on her. So, she decides to sell this for RM25 only.

Where else can you find such deal other than on the blogs.

A day with de'roach

My nemesis is de'cockroach. I hate that I can never hit them. I get all jittery and squeky and screamy. And I just break in the midst of a roach.

Just today, I encountered one and the incident took a funny turn. I was walking towards a classroom when suddenly, a Form 4 boy came running from the opposite direction screaming 'Cockroach'. Naturally, I stopped, took 5 steps back, froze and asked, "Where?". It was coming towards us. And I guess it heard our scream, it ran into hiding behind the shoe cabinet.

The young man was determined, but scared, lugged a heavy stick along and swore to get it destroyed. I stood about 7 feet away from him and looked on as he pulled the shoe cabinet out. Another colleague of mine stood next to the shoe cabinet, puzzled by the whole commotion. As my student pulled the shoe cabinet out, my colleague reached in between the wall and the cabinet and said, "Look" and that sent us sprinting 10 feet away. But it was just a card that he pulled out.

That isn't the funniest part yet. The Form 4 boy, still determined, resumed his position and pulled the next shoe cabinet out. This time de'cockroach came out of it and again it sent out sprinting away. Just that there was more squeals. My colleague who was nearby tried catching it with his bare hands. As he tried catching it, we continued squealing. I asked my student to hit it with the stick he was holding, he didn't. Well, I guess we all break in the midst of a roach. Any roach.

To cut the long story short. The cockroach was short-lived.

And so, once again we live happily every after.

Holy Shoe-Moly!

**My students were doing their research in the ICT lab and they found these. 

We thought we've seen the best of Jimmy Choo and Christian Louboutin. But hold the thought. Introducing shoes of the century. Counting at #13.

Number 13

Trying to make a statement? We get it. It's ok to be hairy.

Number 12

 

Stay away. I bite!

Number 11

You have no idea how difficult is it to take care of white shoes. So don't blame her for the extra umbrellas. 

Number 10

I just hope no one gets too hungry when they see this around. 

Number 9

And if they do, they have dessert to follow.

Number 8

There was some extra cloth lying around, so might as well...

Number 7

Well, you know how they may just run away. 

Number 6

Speaking of being different, they top them all, shoes without shoes.

Number 5

So, tell me again, do we walk or float in this?

Number 4

This is how my feet look like. 

Number 3

For the formal look

Number 2

Now I can look Heidi Klum in the eyes.

Number 1

Have you met Charlotte?

FRAMES Sunway Pyramid

This isn't my house (even if I so beg them to let me live there, they wouldn't). It's just one of the restaurants that my hubby and I love going to. It's Frames. We started patronizing the one in TTDI Plaza for about 2 years and more until we moved to Subang.

Then just today while we were hunting for food in Sunway Pyramid, we saw their poster on the alleyway. And immediately without a doubt, we made our way towards Frames.

We were glad to be greeted by familiar faces. We ordered our favourite beef burger (highly recommended) and it tasted just the same. The price is the same too RM24.

Before we left, for all time sake, they treated us brownie with vanilla ice cream drenched with chocolate sauce.
What can I say? Sumptuous!

Flowy tops with a designer touch like this one is hard to come by. This one here sports a 'bell bottom' cut on the body making it funky yet not over the top. This is going for RM39 only.

Square dress

Simple, elegant and camouflages your imperfection (that's if you have any). Going for RM30 only.

Blazer

I saw a friend coming to work today with a blazer like this. I thought it really look chic on her yet it wasn't too formal. How do you like this for RM36.
