It happened to me too!

While enjoying the bus ride en route to Far East Plaza last Saturday, a conversation between 2 teenage girls (in school uniform) about their love lives brought me back to my teenagehood (If they spoke loud enough for me to hear, that does not count as eavesdropping...does it?)

One of them just got her heart broken by this guy whom she had LOVED for so long.

LOVE? Seriously?

Anyhow, it was hard to resist the temptation to share my "Banish the Breakup Blues" wisdom to the younger generation. Heh..

But if I were her, this is what I would do.

1) Move your ass!
As in exercise, exercise, exercise! No medicine can make you feel better about getting your heart broken, then getting your heart pumping. The sweat and the adrenaline rush you experience after a satisfying workout is way better (and HEALTHIER) than stuffing your face with 2 pints of ice-ceram topped with fudge. The endorphins will perk up your mood in no time.

2) Prioritse your life
Take a breather and turn back the focus on YOU! Think about what are the steps you are going to take to realize any dreams that you had before he/she-who-shall-not-be-mentioned came along. Take steps to take of YOUR life.

3) Start anew.
De-clutter your life. Go on a cleaning spree and tidy up your room (or house) and most importantly, toss away anything that reminded you of he/she-who-shall-not-be-mentioned. With a clean room (or house), you can nopw think straight and charge on with greater enthusiasm and a positive spirit!

I was reading a magazine and it stated that according to a recent British survey, teh average woman has had her heart broken 5 tmes before meeting Mr. Right - in that case, I must have been above average because my number was definitley not single digit.

Whatever it is, have faith that you will meet Mr/Miss Right.

Tried and tested. d;D

Playdate at BHC

Fayrah had her first playdate a few days back and I have to say that I am super proud of her!

She was very sporting when Yasida carried her and played well with Sarah.

Great hosts and sporting guests makes a successful playdate!


Well done, Fayrah!

Ibu love you! Muahks!

Any mummy (or daddy) up for a playdate anytime soon?

Recipe for a Happy Baby

Each time she's awake, all Fayrah wants to do is to either be sitting up or standing.

That means someone always have to be with her.

So when I am alone with her at home, I would just prop up dozens of pillows (Okay, I exaggerate),


or put her in her beloved Bumbo green chair (Thank you Kakak Mia & Kakak Ana),


switch on Disney Junior and she's a happy baby...for like 30 seconds.
