Cheap groceries

Posted July 31st, 2009 by mayni | 4 Comments

One of the places I like to go shopping for my groceries is Aldi. It is a german supermarket chain and sells everything from furniture to food. It is like a mini hypermarket. Now, I love hypermarkets. It’s got everything I am looking for and more at very affordable prices. However, most hypermarkets sell in [...]

two homes

Posted July 31st, 2009 by mayni | No Comments

I have lived in Australia for almost 10 years. It is here that I graduated, started my adulthood, bought my first car and house, fell in love and had my heart broken. Naturally, it is here that most of my life education took place. I call Australia home now. Mainly because it is where all [...]

Online dating

Posted July 31st, 2009 by mayni | No Comments

This has always been an interesting topic to me. I know (and heard) a few people who have found their life partners this way. Although I am fully supportive of friends who choose this method of meeting new people, somehow I have a feeling that I will not be so lucky. You see, I am [...]

House inspections

You either love it or hate it. I love it. What’s not to like? You get to walk around in other people’s homes just checking out the way they live! Creepy yes, illegal – nooo…… I can spend every weekend just going around looking at properties. I am always very curious to see how apartments/houses [...]

Living Life

Posted July 29th, 2009 by mayni | No Comments

I used to be a pessimist. I went through a period when I believed the world was against me which made me very bitter, cynical, judgemental and basically a pain to be with because I would whinge about everything and everyone to anyone who would listen to me. I think I would have stayed that [...]

Cars cars cars

I have a thing for fast cars. For example, I am a huge fan of the “Fast and the Furious” series. For someone who rarely buys dvds, I actually have all three. I should be clear about one thing though, I have been told I drive like a granny (due to years of living in [...]

If I had left

Posted July 29th, 2009 by mayni | No Comments

Sometimes, I wonder how my life would have turned out if I had decided to go back home 7 years ago. I suppose it wouldn’t had been that bad. After all, I think if you have the right connections, you can go very far in Malaysia.  Back then, I knew a few so and so [...]

Having a pet

Posted July 28th, 2009 by mayni | No Comments

I love my cat. I really do. I think he’s starting to warm up to me too. Literally. Winter is the only time in the year he will allow himself to snuggle up to me for the sake of body heat. And mind you, that is only when all other sources have been depleted (sorta [...]

Music makes the world go round

Posted July 27th, 2009 by mayni | No Comments

I like listening to music. But, in all honesty, I can’t say I am one of those who follow the charts or know the latest songs. I just listen to whatever that may be on tv, or if I happen to have the radio on. Sometimes, my sisters will send me songs they like (although [...]

Sister Luck

Posted July 24th, 2009 by mayni | 1 Comment

My sisters have won a fair share of prizes in their lifetime. Til this day, I have no idea how they do it. I like to think that my eldest sister soaked up all the luck while she was in Ma’s womb and my second sis just took up the rest so there was none [...]
