Getting ready for school

Back to school is just around the corner. Lots of preparations to be done for me and my boy. He needs new set of uniforms as he has outgrown his old. He also needs a new bag...this time around, I intend to get him a more durable one so that it's able to last at least a year. Last year..opps this year..he uses two ! I gotten him a cheap pasar malam one....and the zipper got stucked and da rollers came off after several months.


As for myself, nothing much to buy. My wardrobe is still wearable...even though the fashion is a bit out but I don't bother much about the updates. I got myself a new specs last week. Oh yes..I need a pair of court shoes @ a black one.


The most important of all...I need to prepare myself physically, mentally and spiritually to face the new school term. Ya...a new headmistress. Pray hard that she's someone NICE !

Happy New Year

I would like to wish all of you.....a belated Merry Christmas and advance Happy New Year !
I was busy recently and totally have no time to come into my blog. Therefore, no postings for many days.

Merry Dong Zhi

When I was lil

I faithfully stood by the table
watching PoPo rolling coloured balls

with her skillful wrinkled hands
At this time of the year.

When I became a mum

I took the initiative

to create my own coloured balls

with some innovative ingredients
Under watchful eyes of my boy.

Past and present

The colourful balls
Identical shape and size
Emerged in syrupy gravy
That melts in the mouth.

Yummy yummy
Let’s celebrate a bountiful harvest.
Happy Dong Zhi.

Happy Birthday Papa

Our lives go on without Papa,

But nothing is the same,

We reluctantly hide our heartaches,

When someone mentioned Papa's name.

Sadness are the heart that love Papa,

Silent the tears that fall,

Living our hearts without Papa,

Is the hardest part of all.

Papa did so many things for us,

For his heart was kind and true,

And when we needed someone,
We could always count on Papa.

The special years will not return,

When we were all together,

But with the love within our hearts,

Papa lives with us forever.

Happy 79th Birthday Papa.

In Pak Siu-Yau (Lee Sze Kee, Louise)’s eyes, her three daughters are just as perfect as diamonds. She believes that the greatest blessing for a woman is to marry a wealthy man. To guarantee a better life for her daughters, she has started training the girls since they were young, hoping that they will marry into the richest families when they mature.

Yau’s first daughter Hong Nga-Yin (Shiu Mei Ki, Maggie) does not agree with her on her values. Yet when she sees that the man Yin is going out with is Ko Cheung-Sing (Lam, Bowie), who is very well-off, she decides to let Yin go with her choice.

Yau’s second daughter Hong Nga-Tung (Lai Chi, Gigi) is hopelessly romantic but does not seem to have much luck with men. To make it up to her, Yau seeks to match her up with Ho Chit-Nam (Chan Ho, Moses), the son of Hong Kong’s most powerful business tycoon Ho Fung (Yueh Hua).

Being the youngest in the family, Hong Nga-Sz (Choi Siu Fun, Ada) is well aware of Yau’s concerns. Having recovered from divorce, Sz now decides to pin all her hopes on Fung.

Yau’s persistence pays off and her daughters have all found a wealthy husband. But money does not really bring them happiness and the sisters are gradually losing themselves in vanity.
