During our 3 weeks stay in Japan Sep-Oct 2016.

Quite a number of readers told me that they thought it was unbelievable how I handle two kids while traveling between 3 countries. I totally didn’t think so. The danna helps me out a lot and whenever possible he would come back home early to settle dinner, or watch the kids at night while I do some work, etc.

What is unbelievable to me is this.

(Can you imagine if it rains?! T___T)

The danna said this is my life if I were to live in Japan. After sending the kids to school, the mother will go to work herself. She probably wakes up like 5am to prepare the family’s breakfast, lunch boxes, and dinner for the day. Her danna probably works till late night. After work she will have to pick the kids, settle them and also clean the house. read more

Today I am introducing something for those who want beautiful hair – to be more exact – hair that remains beautiful all the time.

We are all familiar with the confident high the moment you step out of a good hair salon, but only to see your hair wither slowly in sadness after a couple of months of absence from salon care.

Salon care is super important, because it is able to transform life (at least of your hair!), but to keep your hair looking just the way it does after a salon visit, try the Milbon 5-week maintenance regimen. read more

Haro! Brainwash time again!

So so so! Today I want to talk about how awesome Japanese packagings are, I took a few months to collect all these pictures so I can compile them into this post.

Even if you have not been to Japan before, I am sure you have seen/bought/received Japanese products with packaging so awesome that it makes you wanna hang it on the wall lol.

And I’m not even talking about packaging like this:

I am talking about packaging that is not just attractive/cute/almost redundantly elaborated, but packaging that shows the thoughtfulness of the person who designed it. Everything is made for the convenience, comfort and happiness for the person who is using it. It is made with heart and love (and some mad creative skills). read more

If you are a mother who are nursing yet want to look less like a shapeless paper bag, this post might be sort of useful for you. However if you are not, this post is just gonna sound weird as hell. Because you throughout this post you’re gonna be like Wtf am I reading? And why am I staring at her bust the whole time?! AND GOD FORBID WHY AM I PICTURING HER UNDRESSING?! and it’s gonna make the both of us uncomfortable. Because today I am basically talking about my mooies (and yours) and how to expose them. Literally. Anyway you have been warned. read more

Quick post!!

Honestly I cannot remember when was the last time I did a coordinate post. Or even properly take a coordinate picture, becauseeee…

1. My coordinate is forever same-ish no matter what I wear since I have a grey baby carrier strapped onto me almost the whole time.

2. When you have to fit 3 pax worth of autumn clothes into a single luggage, it doesn’t give you the choice to look fresh and different every day anymore…

3. Priority. My priorities are to prevent my toddler from jumping off a train platform and to solve a hungry baby situation, rather than, you know, finding good locations/angles for perfect #ootd shots. read more

Food post come liao!

Here are some of the food we ate during our previous trip!

So on the first day the TV was showing a buffet special feature and I saw this…

Super luxurious hotel buffet, unlimited foie gras and caviar with wagyu steak and many other delicacies for 6000 yen… (about $80). T__T.

After watching this I got a little 心理不平衡 (emotionally unbalanced) because we couldn’t go to eat and was in the mood for luxury right in the comfort of our own home.

So… Hokkaido fair it is. read more

Quick blog post while Sakura is napping and Junya is doing his puzzles! Just got back to Singapore last night and half-unpacked our luggages and snapped these pictures to share ^^

1.Konnyaku Jelly

My favorite because they are so yummy! Love the refreshing fruity taste <3 The one in red is cereal though haha.

2. Snacks

Cheeza has specialty versions like Avocadoza, Ebeeza, this time they have Gomaaza!! One pack of Gomaaza is made of 3000 black sesame. Just how much exactly is 3000 pieces of sesame? The Glico website has an interesting post on this. read more

Quick post!

Since we are staying nearby and I’m still all #pokeMOMgo crazy, we visited the Pokemon Center in Ikebukuro Sunshine City. This post is for all Pokemon (or PokemonGo) fans!

I remember going there when Junya was 6 months old. The danna asked, “is Pokemon popular in Malaysia?” (He probably thought it would be a good topic for me to introduce to my readers) I shrugged and said probably not. But I’m glad there are maybe more people will find this post useful now! 😀

Our family always travel together because it makes us feel secured and close together. However with all the recent crime cases happening in KL, every time we return home I feel slightly paranoid about the safety of our family. When the danna is not around, I avoided going out with cheesiepetits on my own and even when the danna comes back late without notice, I felt worried for him although most of the time it was just his meeting stretched on too long.

It would be nice to know where exactly your family members are even when you have to be apart, wouldn’t it? read more

Yes yes yes, I don’t say you also know liao.

But but but!I just realized from my 12th Anniversary post that, not surprisingly, my reader’s most favorite kind of blog posts are about Japan (second is about Cheesiepetit, that one is quite a shocker! So many of you are interested in how I handle soiled diapers?!).

Since I also receive many emails every now and then asking me specific questions regarding traveling in Japan, and my Ultimate 100FAQ About Japan is quite outdated by now, I thought it would be nice if I could sort all my postings about Japan into specific categories. read more

Quick post on what I bought from Japan! ^^

We are going back to Japan in a few day’s time again so the shopping is endless haha.

Today I am going to introduce a product that every fashionable girl and mother who can’t live without her makeup and who is looking for a gentle way of cleansing will love.

I was already a fan of FANCL before I got to know this product. A little back story: FANCL is one of the most popular cosmetic and supplement brands in Japan. I bought lots of healthy supplements from FANCL, and half a year ago I had the opportunity to dined in their Organic&Natural Restaurant, Dorobushi, at FANCL Ginza Square. read more
