We are now going into CMCO and today is the 72th day of avoiding 3C (crowded place, confined space and close conversation) and practicing 3W (wash hands with soap, wear face mask and following the SOP and warning of COVID -19) that our DG always mentioned in his daily press conference at 5pm.<br />
<br />
From MCO to CMCO, other than WFH during MCO, and I am now WFO during CMCO. I do have more free time at home comparing to last time. Because my daughters are off from school, sports activities and tuitions and we are at home. So other than online shopping, home workouts, I spent more time in the kitchen to polish my cooking skills.<br />
<br />
Very frequently, I fried rice and fried noodles, and I am proud to say that my fried rice and fried noodle are quite good taste nowadays. Hahahaha!

I am not only boiling my favorite red bean soup now, I also try to boil something new like this bowl of papaya with milk. Nice, I tell you, it is nice! It is so rich of collagen. Women, please drink this more often.<br />

She told me that her next attempt is Mille Crepe. She wants to use many type of fruits to layer the cake. Oh my! It is so tough, right? Let see how it goes. I hope I can let her materialize the wish before the school reopens. I shall update again if she really tries making one Mille Crepe cake.<br />

Last week, my company had got the approval to resume operation with 50% workforce, and I have also back to office for 2 days. Next week, I will also go back to office for two days also. Even though, we resume working, we still have to follow the Covid-19 prevention guidelines and maintain social distancing with all co-workers.<br />

During MCO, as I have more time to spend on social media, my itchy hands keep browsing those pages that make me spend money.<br />

I bought many items online. I ordered food delivery, skincare, bras, sports bras, clothes and cosmetic.

I invested in these sports bras as I am wearing sports bras and leggings at home during MCO. It is so comfortable to wear like this to work, and after working I can straight away exercise without needing to change.<br />
<br />
Other online shopping at home, I also cook more frequent. No, I didn't spend much time exploring new recipes. I still cook very simple with the menu that I am already familiar.<br />

Upon the request from my daughters for some snack, I asked the 'ketua rumah' to go and buy butter and condensed milk, and I already have cream crackers and Milo. With these 4 ingredients only, I wanted to make Batik Cake.<br />
<br />

<br />
This type of layered cake doesn't need to bake in oven. It only needs to keep in the fridge over night.<br />
<br />

They are now requesting me to make egg tarts. I have run out of butter again. It is time to ask my 'ketua rumah' to go and buy again.<br />
<br />
Other than going to work a few days a week, I am still not going out anywhere. I am still just staying at home.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is the second week of MCO. I am still doing good. How about you guys? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I am kind of good in keeping myself occupied actually. I don't feel bored for the past two week. I guess that I also won't be feeling bored for the next two weeks. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Surprisingly I don't cook or bake like others mummies love to do during this MCO. My MIL still cooked for us, and we went to pick up the food. Sometimes, we ordered the delivery from different local stores as well. When my husband was at home, he loved to be the chef. So, I just let him be. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Then what did i do? Of course on week days I worked from 8am to 4pm. In between, I just paused for breakfast and lunch. After 4pm, it was my exercise time. Then followed by dinner time. After dinner, I would continue to work until 8pm. Good point of working from home is that the flexibility in working hours. After 8pm,I would normally watch drama or watch FB live of the online shopping stores. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My husband had started to complain that I have been buying too much clothes lately. The below are the clothes that I purchased from different online boutiques. I haven't had chance to wear them yet due to the prolong MCO. T___T. </div>

Stay at home, just stay at home.<br />
<br />
First time in my life that I have to work from home (WFH).<br />
Since I am a software person, it is no different to WFH. Because of the work nature, we have more stress than others, because we are expected to deliver as efficient as we were in the office. Therefore, I don't really enjoy WFH, as I required to update my work schedule to my team every day through Skype meeting.<br />
<br />
The only good thing is that I can sleep in a little bit because of no need to travel anymore. Well! I did stocking up some groceries and food after only 2 days of staying at home, stuffs like biscuits, breads, instant noodles, beverage, vegetables, and etc.<br />
<br />
In fact I don't think that I will be bored at home, as I have a long list of things to do. I guess another two weeks also I can't finish the to-do list. I just have too many things that I wish to do and don't have the time to do on normal day.<br />
<br />
For the past two days, I still worked as usual. Saturday and Sunday were the days that I cleaned my room, wardrobe, cabinet, toilet and kitchen. My hubby was helping me with the cooking, mopping, washing the cars and floor. Our house is as clean as in CNY.<br />
<br />
Besides, all the cleaning jobs, I plan to finish this book that I seem taking forever to finish reading. I still have 4 or 5 more chapters to go.<br />

What I have missed during these 14 days of Social Distancing? Of course I miss the gym. I just flaunt my abs a few days ago, now I am facing the risk of losing it. T___T. I am not going to let it happen. I will not forgive myself if I lose any of my newly built muscles. So I do home workout every day for an hour, the exercises that I do include plank variation, burpee, Russian twist, mountain climber, squat, push up, crunch, lunge, jumping jack, roller abs, bicycle, and other abs workout. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Besides that, I also take the challenge of 14 days Intermittent Fasting. I fast for 16 hours and allow myself to eat only for 8 hours. I really hope that by doing an hour of home workout and IF everyday, I can retain lean and fit after 14 days. </div>

I m back from my Shanghai trip with family and friends. The trip is great, as we went with a secondary classmate and his family of three. He led the group to visit many awesome places, eat a lot of nice food, and shop enough goodies during the 7D6N trip. 3 more days to bid farewell to 2019 and usher a brand new year 2020. I don't want to set any new year resolution anymore, as it is always the same. I just want to stay fit, healthy and happy. </div>

As a working mum to two teenage girls, I spend most of my non working hour to exercise. Shy to say that! Hahahaha!<br />
Weekends, I would cook some simple things for my love ones.<br />
<br />
I have been thinking of cooking the fried tom yam pasta. I finally materialized it recently. I fried the angel hair with onion, lemon grass, tomatoes,carrots, chicken meat, prawns, fried eggs and the tom yam sauce.<br />
<br />
Next time, I am going to spread some shredded cheese on top and bake it in the oven to make baked cheese tom yam pasta, sound good right! lol!<br />

I always love steamed cake especially when I found a simple recipe to try. The recipe that I tried that day is so good. It is not only simple, it is 0% failure rate. If I can make it successful for the first attempt, I guess no one in the world would fail with this recipe. Please find the recipe from the screen shot below.<br />

I boiled Dong Quai, red dates, wolf berries, dried longan, honey dates, and black dates together with eggs almost every alternate week. No added sugar is needed and this nutrient soup is tasted naturally sweet. Women are advised to drink this nutrient soup more to nurture your body.<br />

Taking post workout pictures has become a norm for me as a reward for accomplishing the work out routine. I have no regret for stopping running and spending more time on strength training. I find myself more curvy than I used to be, though I have put on 3 kg since then.<br />

Hello, it is November, 1 more month to Christmas and brand new year, 2 more months to Chinese New Year. So many reason to celebrate and cheer. Life is too short to cry, sad, worry, angry, jealous and hate. All I want is staying healthy, happy and peace of mind.<br />
<br />
In fact, I have no time for all the negative things and people. I always occupy myself with people and things that make me happy only.<br />
<br />
I don't take much photos lately, except some selfies after the gym, lol!<br />
That's probably the only way to reward myself for allowing to show off a bit in front of the mirror. Honestly, it isn't easy to be in the gym for 2 hours, most of the time alone, only sometimes my husband and my coach would give me a company. I hate doing squatting with barbell and two plates of 15 KG each, but I still do 10 reps x 3. I hate doing hips thrust with barbell and two plates of 5 KG each, but I still do 12 reps x 3. I hate doing dead lift with barbell and two plate of 10 KG each, but I still do 15 reps x 3. I hate doing hanging knee raises but I still do 20 reps x 4. I hate doing roller abs, but I still do 8 reps x 4. Hahahaha! Did I sound like grumbling? Strength training needs determination, will power and discipline. Thank Goodness! I have all. Besides, I have endurance that I could make myself to proud.<br />
<br />
I still have't achieved the goal that I set for myself. I need to work harder before I set a new resolution again. lol!<br />
<br />
All these selfies were taken after a strenuous exercise, having soaked in sweaty sport wear, messy hair with sweat still dripping down, rosy cheeks that always appeared naturally, and I think I am fitter than when I was 20 years old.<br />
<br />

<br />
In fact, I have put on 3 kg ever since I stopped running and lifting weight. In order to cut down my body fat, I need to include cardio exercise in to my training program too. Strength exercise is to build muscle, and cardio exercise is to cut down the fat. Diet and sleep are equally important to maintain the body weight and shape.<br />

Till now until we meet again! </div>

Today I am sharing a comparison picture of myself on May 2018 and September 2019. I went to gym at least 2 to 3 times a week, each session 2 hours. I did all sort of workout for the whole body, such as legs, chest, and abs on day 1, glutes, shoulders and back on day 2, and then triceps, biceps and cardio on day 3.<br />
<br />
After 16 months, I finally witnessed the change on my body. Before starting the strength exercise, I was a runner who run 4 days a weeks. Yes I was slim then, but my body was not toned up at all.. My body fat % was kind of high too.<br />
<br />
Now, my body fat % has reduced from 29 % to 24 % . It is not the best body fat % yet, I know.<br />
I showed my coach the below picture, he complemented me for the vast transformation and he also praised me for sculpting the V taper body.<br />

My shoulders are rounder, my arms are more toned, my waistline is more curvy,<br />
my hips are smaller, my tights are more in shape and lastly my face doesn't look fatter even though I have put on muscle mass.<br />
<br />
I called myself a gym rat because I have got all the following signs.<br />
1. I was asked by others, why am I working so hard in the gym? why? why and why?<br />
2. My wardrobe is filled with 60% of gym attires.<br />
3. I skipped social functions because of not wishing to skip gym.<br />
4. I took day off from work and spent hours in the gym.<br />
5. I feel guilty and worried when I am not going to gym more than 3 days.<br />
6. I am missing my workout when I go for holidays.<br />
7. I shower more in the gym than at home.<br />
8. I can spend more than 3 hours in the gym and don't feel like going back<br />
<br />
I am blessed that I married to a gym rat who can spend the same amount of time to build muscle like me too.<br />

In case you are wondering how I am getting on recently. Let me tell you here that I am good, healthy and fit. Only that I am very busy and tired too, due to my always packed schedule. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Well. Let me start now. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
1. Breakfast</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Good thing that I don't starve myself like last time anymore. I don't think I need to go on strict diet and refrain myself from eating. I just have to eat mindfully and eat the right stuff, that is enough. Nevertheless, I eat the same type of breakfast almost everyday. One cup of Kopi-O kosong and 3 half boiled eggs. That's all. This can last me till 10:30am and I will make myself a cup of Ensure Gold milk with oats. </div>

2. Exercise</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I don't run that often like last time. Instead, I go to gym at least 3 times a week, each time 2 hours, by following a training program that my coach sets for me. I have yet to build my six packs,that is my goal of the year. However, I have managed to trim my belly fat and form a toned abs. I have stopped joining any running race too, as I am now having more interest in the strength training and weight lifting exercise. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
They are my everything. My two teenage girls are both doing very well in the secondary school. I am thankful for their hard work in their studies. I am blessed to have an always supportive, caring and loving husband. He is my gold medal husband and my two girls' gold medal father. I don't think there is another man who can love us as much as he does. </div>

4. Baking</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I used my mass gainer protein powder to bake the high protein oats cookies and pancakes. I called them the guilt-free bakes. I love cookies and I love pancakes. I can eat these without worrying much of calories if they were baked with my protein powder. All of them were baked without sugar, I used the ripe bananas as the natural sweetener for the recipe, and I used coconut oil to bake them. When I made pancakes for the girls, I would use flour, butter and add some brown sugar instead. </div>

My daughters took park in the Merdeka drawing competition. The first drawing here won May the first prize in the Secondary 1 category. The second drawing was also done by May for her art exam, and the last drawing was done by April for the Secondary 3 category competition. I think they are so beautifully drawn and colored. </div>

I am going to share my new beauty regime here today. In fact, I got to know this beauty tips from a new friend whom I met in the gym. I addressed her as Datin, as I heard someone called her so. I believe that her husband is a Dato la! Because she never denied when people calling her that way.<br />
<br />
Despite of her title, she is a very friendly, kind and sweet lady at her late 50. She always shared many tips with me such as how to take care of our health and body. I like talking her. Then, one day I praised her for her young looking face and complexion. Without being selfish, she revealed that she used sheet mask every evening before bedtime.<br />
<br />
For heaven knows, I never a fan of sheet mask, because I prefer those purifying and deep cleansing effect clay mask. I invested in many brands of clay mask, I just wouldn't buy any sheet mask. When friends bought me sheet masks as a gift, I gave away to people. I hate the sticky feeling that sheet mask left on my face. I also afraid that those concentrated essence or serum in the sheet mask would be too heavy for my sensitive skin. However, the Datin had really successful in retaining her youth and preserving her beauty at her age. That triggered me to do more studies in internet about the usage of sheet mask. Never did I know that all the K-Pop beauties using sheet mask twice a day. Once in the morning and once at night to keep their face hydrated and glowing all the time.<br />
<br />
Without much hesitation, I went to my favourite Korean beauty products website, <a href="http://althea.kr/">Althea </a>to purchase 40 pieces of sheet mask at one shot.<br />
<br />

Her advice is buying a good quality and having high hydration content sheet mask. This is because hydrated skin is always having less problems like aging, acne and pigmentation.<br />
<br />

I remembered that I started using my first sheet mask on 28 June, and today is the 15th day, so religiously every single evening before I call it a day. Just two weeks, one of my colleagues had noticed the different, she checked with me whether I have changed my skincare product. I reckon that my skin is definitely brighter and "toink toink" now<br />
<br />
So, please go stocking up the sheet mask, don't need to get the expensive one, just buy the one that you like in variety. Put it on your face while you checking your phone or watching TV. After 10 minutes, you can remove the sheet mask and follow by your skin care products.<br />
<br />
Good luck! Perhaps you can share with me your progress after you try this beauty regime.</div>

I lost my mojo to post in FB, IG and blog. I don't know why I have totally lost my interest to post anything on social media recently. May be I am too occupied, may be I want to stay as low profile as possible, or may be I withold my personal life, or may be I am influenced by my loved ones, they are all quiet on social media.<br />
<br />
Today, I feel like updating my blog and recapping all that I have done when I went MIA.<br />
<br />
1. These 7 pictures were taken on different day. I eat this same type of breakfast after sending my daughter to school and before going to office once or twice a week. I enjoy my me time when sipping my black coffee, having two half boiled eggs and a piece of toast with butter and kaya. My energy was perked up immediately and I feel full of power to start my busy routine at work.<br />

2. I cook once in a while too. I used ready pack curry paste to cook curry chicken with carrot, potatoes and curry leaves. I made glutinous rice balls with red dates, dried longan and wolfberries soup. My kind of protein and nutrient supplement by boiling hard boiled eggs with red date, wolfberries and dried longan. Steamed cake with only eggs, sugar and flour. Again I cooked rendang ayam with ready pack rendang paste. Fried Japanese tofu with salted egg yolks, butter, curry leaves, chillies, and nestum oats.<br />

3. I took part in my company charity run on Labour Day. I was in dilemma when I wanted to register. I was uncertained which category that I should join, 7KM or 10KM. I was undecided whether to be a committee or runner. Finally I choose to be a runner and I signed up for 7KM. I started to train for it when I left only 4 weeks to the race . I trained once a week and I trained long. I was so lucky to be the first in 7KM women open, and I proud of myself for taking only 34 minutes to complete the route.<br />

4. I am still very hardworking to go to gym. 3 times a week without fail. I am thrilled to see the progressing result on my body. To be honest, it was not easy to spend two hours in the gym lifting the weight and doing all the compound exercises, but it is worth for my improved strenght and shape. </div>

I started to do workout in the gym since last May. Until now it is already more than 6 months. <br />
<br />

<span style="text-align: left;">Are you able to see the difference? Though it is not significantly obvious, I see that I have much improved at upper body in the right pic compared to the left pic. My abs is more toned in the right pic than in the left pic. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Too bad that I do not have a pic that I wore exactly the same outfits and the side view pic for comparison. Otherwise I can see the result on my butt and legs, I focused on glutes and hamstrings training a lot. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Other than working out 3 days in a week on different parts of the body, such as upper body and core , lower body and arms, and combo sets on body weight exercise, I still go to Zumba and Yoga. However, I have stopped running, simply because I don't have free slot anymore. Besides, cardio exercise is an optional for me now. </div>

My husband had just bought online two big packs of protein supplements for me. It arrived on 14 Feb, so I took it as his valentine's gift to me since he got me nothing else. T____T.<br />
<br />
By the way, in 2019, I have set a goal to build a sexy abs with 6 packs. lol!<br />
Unlike previously, I only want to lose weight. In fact I put on weight after building muscle. My trainer said that it is becaues muscle is denser than fat. He asked me to ditch the bathroom scale and just look at the mirror. Shall I trust him?!<br />

My 2019 New Year resolution SPIN 15K challenge was on 13 January. I was not really trained for it. I spent most of my time on strength training in the gym for the past few months.<br />
<br />
I only got to run two times, once 15K and once 10K on treadmill prior to the run. Despite of training lesser than last time, I didn't give up hope as I am actually fitter and stronger now compare to last time. I believe that running 15K, endurance is more important than speed.<br />
<br />
I reserved and held back my energy at the first half of the run, and I didn't stop at the first two water station. I didn't feel tired and thirsty at all until the last water station. I stopped and took two cups of water at the last 5K. In fact, I could have skipped all the water stations, as I didn't really need to drink.<br />

Upon reaching the finishing line, I was able to smile to camera. I would reckon that I finished strong, and my first 15K was not as tough as what I thought. <br />

Up to now, I didn't sign up any run. I would focus on my strength training and try to squeeze time once a week to run. <br />

We were at Bali from 13 Dec 2018 till 18 Dec 2018 for our family trip.<br />
<br />
I have posted a couples of pictures in my FB so I am not going to post the same one here anymore. Instead, I want to share what I have got for myself, friends and family the souvenirs from Bali.<br />
<br />

These Bali ratten bags can be seen in many shops at most Bali tourist spots. I believe this type of bags are one of the handmade local product in Bali. They come in many shapes, such as round, square, oval, rectangle, hexagon and etc.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFEh5HxJRLRVYxzVzBixMLgLnIpC7_06JGUAFFpIVVBxzbXrrPdc8LlWS4ljvl9B_IMz3fbHtZe2VZ9W8XMuhES9wNAuZJvL0xqD83dm1nCh8NQH72Bz4wB3XMWHe7jY4XBCbWkBFWYfJK/s1600/IMG_20181215_102631.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="786" data-original-width="1048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFEh5HxJRLRVYxzVzBixMLgLnIpC7_06JGUAFFpIVVBxzbXrrPdc8LlWS4ljvl9B_IMz3fbHtZe2VZ9W8XMuhES9wNAuZJvL0xqD83dm1nCh8NQH72Bz4wB3XMWHe7jY4XBCbWkBFWYfJK/s640/IMG_20181215_102631.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
I was actually attracted by the uniqueness of these ratten bags. Other than the original ratten color in brown, it has white, blue, green, pink, yellow, orange, black and red color too.<br />
<br />

Buying these bags at the shop lots or tourist spots are way cheaper than buying them in the mall, because the price can be bargained if you buy more.<br />

This is Bali layer cake, I bought few boxes to give to friends and relatives. These packing was store bought from Agung Bali souvenir shop. Our driver also took us to buy the homemade fresh from over layer cake. Of course the homemade one is so much delicious, only that we could't buy a lot, as it was not easy to hand carry and take home by flight. </div>

I did that again. Mummy and daughter trip, this time was with my younger daughter, May. Two years ago I went to Perth with my elder daughter, April.<br />
<br />
We went to Xiamen, China Fujian on 22 Nov till 29 Nov. Why Fujian, China? Because it was organized by my Zumba teacher. It would be fun to go with people that we know, previously April and I went to Perth with a group of people whom we didn't know at all.<br />

We were at KLIA waiting room to board the flight to China, my very first trip to China, mainland.<br />
<br />
After reaching Fujian (福建), there started our trip to all places in Fujian, which includes Zhang Zhou(漳州) , Yong Ann(永安), Tai Ning(泰宁), Wu Yi Shan(武夷山), Fu Zhou(福州), Quan Zhou(泉州), and Xiamen(厦门)in 8 days and 7 nights.<br />
<br />
Here are some of the pictures of us. I forgot to mention that mummy and daughter trip is also a reward trip after the UPSR. I have promised them the next one will be after their PT3 exams, then SPM exams and etc.<br />
<br />
May's UPSR result was out on the last day of our trip. The result was out at 10am, our flight back to KL was at 3:30pm. On the night before, I had set up a cue with my husband when he had got the result from school. He said he was going to miss call once for 8As, twice for 7As and so on.<br />
<br />
At about 11:15am that day, I received a missed call which rang 3 times. We were happy of course and but still uncertain. Later we got connected to WiFi at the shopping mall, I quickly WeChat my husband and he confirmed that May got 8As. I was so proud of her.<br />

Less than 2 months time that we are going to bid farewell to 2018 and usher the new year 2019. Yeah! It is year end and I love this period of time the most. Year end is usually more relaxing, because children's exams are over, year end holidays are scheduled, year end sales are plenty, year end parties are arranged and bonus is soon to get too.<br />
<br />
I was actually waiting for my last race which was on last Sunday in order to compile a post that recorded all the runs that I took part in year 2018.<br />
<br />
I signed up 6 run events this year. I only took part in 4 run events in year 2017, 0 run event in year 2016 and 1 run event in year 2015.<br />
<br />
25 February, my first run in 2018, and also it was my birthday run.<br />

<br />
I trained less in running in the second half of the year, it is because I spent most of my time in the gym to do the strength training. The lack of training in cardio which has resulted me to have slower pace in my runs. I don't feel upset because I have known the reason. If I train more, I will improve. This logic is true to anyone and anything, right?<br />
<br />
I am actually lucky. Why I said so? In fact,all events are different in the prize giving arrangement.<br />
Some runs have top 10 winners on podium, some have top 5, some have top 3 only.<br />
However, when they only had top 3 winners, I was one of them. When they had top 5, I was able to be at the 5th place. When they had top 10, I was able to squeeze myself in the 10th place. kakakakaka! Therefore I was seen on podiums for all my runs so far.<br />
<br />
When I joined the run events, I was not into the running T-shirts at all. I was not interested in the finisher medal too. I am actually looking forward to be on podium, am I being too honest here?<br />
I told many people, when I have no chance to step up to podium, it is also time for me to stop joining the run events.<br />
<br />
I have signed up another run in January 13, 2019. My first resolution 15KM challenge. That means I must train for it these two months.<br />
<br />
Happy Deepavali for all my Indian friends, and happy holiday to the rest of you. </div>

My 12 years old has completed her UPSR exam, and she is now in her most enjoyable moment until next year. My 14 years old needs no guidance or supervision from me in her final exam which is going to start next week.<br />
<br />
So, yours truly too have more luxury time to do things that she likes lately. It was so long that I stopped cooking on weekends. I used to cook on weekends when they were small.<br />
<br />
My daughters and my husband love having their meal with soup. The soup that we had in the restaurant was always too small the portion for them. Therefore I must make sure that I cook them a big pot of soup whenever I prepare their meal.<br />
<br />
1. Sunday dinner. Brown rice, stir-fired choy sum with shrimps, fried egg with Chinese sausages and ABC soup. The purple sweet potatoes were mine complex carbs. I have stopped taking rice for quite some time.<br />

<br />
You can see that I am not good in many varieties, I can only cook simple dishes, besides the same dish keeps repeated in the menu. Wakakakaka!<br />
<br />
Thank Goodness that they didn't complain so far. The important thing is the soup must be enough to be served for dinner, and also it must have left over to be served for supper. lol! My soup is too hearty and delicious. Hahahahaha!<br />
<br />
Anyway, I will try to cook more variety dishes in the coming weeks. Hopefully I have more new menus to share here. </div>

My 12 years old younger daughter, May is going to sit for her UPSR exam soon. Her first paper is on 20 September, and the last exam is on 28 September. Then, we shall celebrate together on 29 September, as it is also my husband's birthday.<br />
<br />
I am a lucky mom as my two daughters are good students, I reckon. They are pretty discipline in their school work.<br />
<br />
Many had asked me how I trained them to be such good at school. To be honest, I didn't sit beside them when they did their homework. I also didn't spend time on their revision. If I did, how could I have time for my own activities like yoga, zumba, run and gym, right? Needless to say, I am a full time working mother. The number of me visiting them at school is less than 3 times in a year. They were report card collection day, school concert day and perhaps parents day.<br />
<br />
April and May are pretty independence and hardworking. There are a few things that I do to make sure they are not slacking off. I control the time they spend on phone and TV. I review and check May's homework almost every day.<br />
<br />
Just like today, I have just completed checking 2 sets of English papers, 2 sets of Mathematics papers, 1 sets of Chinese worksheet, and 1 set of Science papers. The whole process of checking took a few hours.That is is the only thing I can do to guide May on her mistake.<br />
<br />
Next year, when she goes to the secondary school, I shall not do checking on her homework anymore.<br />
<br />
April who is 14 and the second year in her secondary school, I have totally left to her to manage on her own. Thank goodness that she doesn't disappoint me. She has done well so far, and I proud of her. <br />
<br />

I had actually started to run using treadmill in the gym almost everyday for almost 2 years before I started to join the run event. In fact I registered myself for a run on December 2014, I couldn't make it due to leg injury that I blogged <a href="https://sheohyan.blogspot.com/2015/01/achilles-tendinitis.html">here</a> before. So, KOBL on April 2015 had become my first ever race in my life.<br />

I have won myself a prize from my maiden run. I was so motivated and proud at the same time.<br />
<br />
The organizer skipped a year and came back again to hold the event in 2017. Again, I registered myself in the 10KM, and it was a women veteran category.<br />

Frankly, I still wanted to thank my rival as she made me break my own record. I achieved the best timing that I never had before running up and down the same route at Bukit Larut.<br />

In KOBL2018, though I didn't defend my position as the champion, but I actually improved by 8 minutes if compare to the result in KOBL2017. I took only 58 minutes to finish the 10KM. I just couldn't believe it. I should be happy and proud of myself for all the hard work that I spent on training. </div>

By reviewing these series of pictures, I find myself have become fitter and fitter. I am certainly feel motivated for the life that I am leading.<br />
<br />
Will I be joining KOBL2019? I don't know, because I am not training as hard as before already. I do more strength training now. I used to run 4 times week, but now I only run once a week.<br />
<br />
If I join, shall I take the challenge to join the 26km????<br />

I was just back from Hatyai last weekend with my zumba buddies. It was a satisfying trip, I reckoned, as everyone had fulfilled their objective of visiting Hatyai. We went for praying in the temples, feasting on the Thai cuisine, having traditional Thai massage, jollying after drinking beer in the pub, enjoying the live band performance, side-seeing and preserving fond memories in hundreds of pictures. Needless to say shopping till we drop.<br />
<br />
Pictures were mostly taken in Municipal Park and Wine Village.I am sharing my shopping loots here too. Enjoy!<br />

I don't mind going to Hatyai again and again. Hopefully my zumba buddies will make it as an annual trip.<br />

Other than being a fitness freak, I am a sweet tooth person. I can't say no to dessert though I am kind of strict in whatever I eat. However, I can control the sweetness if I to cook it myself. Then, I can eat lots of dessert that I like without feeling guilty and bad.<br />
<br />
Almost every weekend, I will boil sweet dessert soup.<br />

Sometimes, I will add in eggs for more protein. This bowl of dessert is very filling and I will have it as my lunch.<br />

This is pumpkin, barley and sago in coconut milk. I only put in a little bit of brown sugar. Pumpkin is an ingredient that I always love.<br />

This is purple sweet potatoes with sago in coconut milk. In fact, coconut milk is very rich, it healthier to replace it with milk or soy milk.<br />

Green beans and sweet potatoes with soy milk. The combination of all ingredients are just fantastic!<br />

I can finally take my black coffee without sugar, which I thought I would never able to take it. So, my breakfast is kind of boring, Kopi-O (no sugar) with steamed sweet potatoes, Monday to Friday!<br />
<br />
Besides, I also take my protein shakes at breakfast everyday.<br />

If you know me long and well, you should know that I am a fitness freak. I put exercise in my daily priority list. Albeit my busy schedule for work, family and friends, I always find time to stay active. When I really run short of time and I can't leave home, I will do hula hooping for at least an hour in front of the TV. I am keeping track of my activity type and the time spent every day.<br />
<br />
Recently, I got myself a book that was recommended by my best friend. "Younger Next Year" is a book which tells you the exercise program for women to live strong, fit and sexy until you are 80 and beyond. Sound great, right? You can get it form https://www.bookdepository.com. This website provides free shipping worldwide, but you have to be patient while waiting for the delivery of your book. It usually takes about a month to reach. I have finished chapter 1 and I will continue reading it after the final of the FIFA World Cup 2018 this coming weekend. Lol!<br />

I am happy to share that I have accomplished one of the things-to-do 2018 by joining the fitness and strength training group. Our coach is a gentlemen who is in his 60++ and formerly a national volleyball coach. Since he trained the national volleyball team before, he has great patience in guiding the lady beginners in lifting weight and using all the gym equipment. Because of my work, I only join them once a week. I will do my own training by following my husband to the gym in the evening. </div>

However, he said I am too skinny to put on muscle, he wanted me to consume a supplement for more serious workout. He recommended me to take the mass gain protein shake to support my active lifestyle. He suggested me to experiment with low dosage and monitor the progress gradually, as its ingredients contains a certain percentage of calories and fat too.<br />

<br />
It has been so long that I last updated my blog.<br />
<br />
I am still in good shape, in case you are wondering.<br />
<br />
I am occupied with my work, my exercise, my family, and my friends as usual.<br />
<br />
Lately, I am kind of busy catching up with news of our new government, new Cabinet, new ministers, new PM but also an ex-PM, and new Malaysia as a whole.<br />
<br />
Since 9 May, I am very excited following some FB lives of press conferences and announcements that made by different ministers. I am suddenly so well-versed in the politics which I had little interest and close to zero knowledge previously. Wakakaka!<br />
<br />
Though I am lack of sleep and always feel drowsy in the afternoon, I dare not complain, because I am staying up late at night watching videos and messages in FB and WhatsApp. Besides, our 93 years old PM who is still working diligently, has taught me not to say tired and be lazy.<br />
<br />
A couple of days before GE14, we went to the very famous Larut Matang food court as we knew that there would be a speech given by the now YB in Taiping, they were YB Nga, YB Teh and YB Leow. Lucky April and me! We got a chance to take a picture with them.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
On 9 May, I took a 2 hours time off from work in the morning, as I wanted to cast my vote early, then I went to work and let my colleagues take turn to the various polling centres. I applied makeup lightly and wore a spaghetti straps dress with a cardigan. My husband too wore very decent that day. We both dressed like going to a wedding ceremony. Muahaha!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I already expected that the result of GE14 would only be out late. I went for an hour run in the gym after work. Back at home, seeing my husband already glued to the TV and engrossed in the update of the result. My two daughters kept asking me, "Do we need to go to school tomorrow?" When everyone was hungry, I ordered McD delivery as supper.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I hurried them to go to bed at around 1am. I told them that I would not wake them up if the school was off tomorrow. I sort of having confidence in what I said to them. My husband and I slept around 4:30am. I took a half day off in the morning, I walked into the office at noon. You guess what! My boss took half day off in the afternoon. He left the office the same time when I stepped into the office. Apparently, he waited for the result up to 3:30am too . Kekekeke! Thank Goodness he didn't scold me for taking emergency leave due to waiting for GE14 result.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
My Zumba buddies decided to have a celebration for the change of the government. At the dinner, we had so much joy and laughter while sharing topics of what has happened before and after the election of the 7th Prime Minister of Malaysia.<br />

<span style="background-color: white;">This is the 93 years old PM's hand. A hand which has saved the country, the nation and the people with sincerity. I am so proud of him, at the same time I feel so sad seeing him trying to settle endless issues and trillion debts from the past government. I wish Tun M and his wife are always blessed with good health and longevity. </span><br />

We were just back from our Christmas trip in Bangkok. This was the second time we celebrated Christmas overseas.The kids and I were in Singapore on Christmas in 2015.<br />
<br />
We stayed at Silom Sp8ce Hostel, we gave this hostel 9/10 points. These hostel staffs are very friendly and helpful. They always greeted the guests with smiling faces. The hostel room is clean and comfortable. Though breakfast was not inclusive, it provided bread from morning until noon. Other than that, we were allowed to help ourselves with the instant noodles and the beverage such as coffee, tea, chocolate and ginger tea all day long. I personally find the hostel owner was very generous to the customers. Another thing is important to mention, the WiFi was fantastic. My daughters screamed hurray while using their network, no jam at all.<br />

We booked the two layers beds room. My daughters were so excited climbing up and down the stair . Of course, they choose to sleep on the top layer.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It has a hammock build on top the layer as well. May loves lying on the hammock and surfing net every evening.<br />
<br />
Let's see where we went in Bangkok. We went to Maeklong Railway Station Market. I remember the taxi took about 1.5 hours to reach there. We had tom yum kung, mangoes sticky rice, coconut water, mangoes smoothies and duck leg noodles while waiting for the train to passby.</div>

The train arrived and stopped right in front of us, so it was just nice for us to take a selfie before the huge crowd came and blocked the train.<br />

One more picture with the station signboard. We left for floating market after shopping for some local snacks at the market.<br />

We went to Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. It was a very fun ride on the boat. So many things to watch such as shops along the river, sellers cooking and selling food on boats.<br />
<br />

We found the food sold in this floating market was more expensive than other places, therefore we didn't buy anything there.<br />
<br />
We went to Asiatique - The Riverfront market. We were there buying lots of goodies, such as snacks, skincare products, and souvenirs. We had dinner there too.<br />

It was so nice of the hostel to give us a Christmas party on Christmas Eve. All residents in the hostel were invited. The staffs decorated the place and prepared the food for the celebration.<br />

Cheers! We had a free flow of Thailand beers - Singha and Chang. Yannie bottled up two, and my Jino three.<br />
<br />
On Christmas day, we went to Chocolate Ville. A place we took plenty of pictures. We were in Universal Studio Singapore on Christmas day in 2015.<br />

We didn't dine in the restaurant in the park because it was too pricey. However, later the taxi driver took us to a seafood restaurant, it was equally pricey. T___T<br />
<br />
<br />
In Bangkok, other than hunting for good Thai food, the best thing to do is shopping. We went shopping at Chatuchuk, Pratunam market, Platinum Mall, Big C Supermarket, Terminal 21, Central World Bangkok and Ratchada Train Market.<br />

Yannie and Jino at 4th level, Terminal 21, which is San Francisco street. Terminal 21 food court is reasonably priced and the food tasted well.<br />
<br />
That's all to conclude our 7D8N (22 December 2017 - 28 December 2017) Bangkok trip in one single post. Hahaha! Yannie is actually getting very lazy in taking pictures of food, shopping loots, and places. These pictures here are credited to April and Jino. Yannie only focused on enjoying herself.<br />
<br />
Jino went for body massage once, Yannie went twice. JAMY family bought lots of goodies like Bento snacks, Banana and Mangoes Pocky sticks, dried mangoes & coconuts, instant noodles, scarfs, Beauty Buffet skincare products, Big Apple sandals, Naraya evening bag, Kipling sling & shoulder bag, Riya handbag, clothes, jeans, T-shirts, evening gown, 7-Eleven banana cakes, Snake Powder and other popular Thailand souvenirs that I couldn't name all.<br />
<br />
Folks, 1 more day to end 2017. Here I wish all who know me to have a very blessed brand new year 2018.<br />
