The person that I am most grateful to is Singaporean top blogger Wendy Xiaxue as she has directed my life into something which I am really satisfied with. I become a writer because of what she has succeeded in her favorite pastime. It is contrary to the avocations by my father to become a nurse, teacher or other typical professions. At some point, this 29-year-old Wendy Cheng (Xia Xue’s real name) has been truthful to herself when she writes in her blog ( www.xiaxue.blogspot.com ). The blog content is thus becomes significant to me as some of those stories make me feel connected to her. She made me realized that there are certain problems or issues that both of us (and I believe there will be someone out there) are experiencing the same thing, although it is at different timeframe or stages of lives. And her sharing makes me feel like that I am not alone in facing them. Of course besides the anguish posts, Xiaxue is also a hilarious blogger with her not-so-common imagi

Agony of breastfeeding journey.

Most of the sounded people, who have yet gone through breastfeeding journey, might think that it is a marvellous and lovely experience. The baby, of course the huge benefactor, besides the sense of security and comfort, she gets all essential nutrients and antibodies from the fresh milk.  Meanwhile, the feeder could also lose weight, natural birth control and less worry that baby will easily get sick. Along the way, mothers suffer behind the scenes despite repeated assurance that they are happy to sacrifice for the babies' sakes. Firstly, mothers have to expose nipples to let the baby drinks. Most of the time, not wearing bras will be most convenient as one could just simply retract the shirt. And while the action takes place, usually the husbands and babysitters,or other family members have to witness the not so humoring scene. As breasts are in pair, other one will leak while baby sucks the other one. How we wish that there's a faucet to control the flow. Undeniably,

Baby at 4 month old

Bree is 4-month old yesterday. She has grown into a beautiful and adorable baby as she tries to steal people hearts via her sweetest smiles and willingness to sleep through the night. She is 6 kilogramme now, has been able to lift head at 90 degree, loves to sit and stands with support. She has developed recognition on familiar faces, and also strangers. Recently, she cries out loud when  other people (besides daddy, babysitter and I) hold her at home. However, when we go out, she tries to hold back her tears and fears when people hug and play with her. A good decorum, I would say for a little girl to behave such way at a very young age. I still breastfeed her, pumping milk at workplace and babysitter provides her formula milk during daytime. As for myself, I found that I am not spending enough time with her. She grows up so fast yet the interaction time with her is only between 6pm and 9pm. after that, she'll close her eyes and enjoy the comfort of sucking and latch

I made a booking of the three-star accommodation via agoda.com at RM180 per room with two single beds. As it was my first time using the discounted hotel reservations online site, I called them to check on the reservation status. I had to call several times as no one picked up the phone. When I managed to talk to the club's staff, they could not confirm whether on the matter and promised to response to me once there's any updates. I've waited for few days, but the phone was silent. Since i had the confirmation receipt from Agoda, I just drove to the tip of borneo. I was hoping to be able to get good rest, pampering spa and swimming session as I reached there after a long three-hour drive from Kota Kinabalu. The overlooking view from the resort's lobby is really breathtaking. The background of the hotel is bed of the serene blue Sulu sea/South China sea. I got the ground floor room, with garden and swimming pool view.  However, the interiors is a bit not worth th
