Food Addictions Of A Non-Foodie

This may be news to some of you but yes, I do eat. Food la, what else? And quite regularly too *gasp*. Contrary to what you may think, I am NOT a chronic dieter and I do NOT have willpower of steel – more like willpower of mee suah. The sordid truth is, I’m an [...]

The 10 Signs Of Auntiehood

In other countries, auntie means the sister of your father or mother; the wife of your uncle. Here in Malaysia, auntie means different things. It represents a certain phase in life, a certain type of appearance and certain ‘auntie-type’ characteristics. When someone calls you an Auntie, it’s not a compliment. In my post today, I [...]

The Rabies Awareness Fun Run

I absolutely love The Office. I must’ve watched every episode at least three times and no, I’m not exaggerating. Seeing that my blog contains a fair share of stuff on running, I thought it was apt to pay tribute to the show’s one running episode: The Fun Run in season 4.

I’ve always known this and now, I have the evidence to prove it: a bunch of psychologists at Keele [...]

Gardenia: The Choco Raisin Verdict

Okay. I finally tried Gardenia Delicia Choco Raisin – something which a few people have insisted I must do. They say it’s better than Delicia Butterscotch. Okay lor. So I did. It was my ‘Breakfast of Champions’ at 4am before Adidas KOTR. In retrospect, no wonder I didn’t make the qualifying time at the 10K. [...]

Adidas King Of The Road 2009

Every blog entry must have a story/a point/a hook – something you can capture in a single sentence. KL Marathon was my maiden run and SHAPE was the one where I was last (first few kms la). But truth be told, I don’t really have a story/a point/a hook for Adidas KOTR … so what [...]
