First Pregnancy Checkup at Klinik Kesihatan Kajang
I’m now 8 weeks plus into my 2nd pregnancy, and it is still considered really early for a visit to the gynae. Since we would like to deliver in a government hospital again, we have to do our check up at a nearby klinik kesihatan, a basic clinic run by the government. I need to get the ‘pink card’ only available at government clinics so that I won’t be ‘scolded’ again like my first delivery at Hospital Putrajaya when I walked in without any record or card but just a letter from my gynae. My sis-in-law who is a doctor at a government hospital enlightened me that that is how…

Kracie Purenavi Makeup Remover Oil
Last night, I dreamed about writing this post, something I don’t normally write, beauty products. But since I dreamed of it, I thought I might as well write a review of it. So, recently I bought this Purenavi Makeup remover oil Made in Japan from Watsons. The whole bottle is basically in Japanese except a sticker with English instructions.

But I left the dip stick in there for a longer while and suddenly the 2nd line appeared. Again this felt like an unbelievable feeling. I checked on my iPhone app to see how long I’ve been pregnant, well it’s only 4 weeks. The first…

I hate boiling water
In my house, most of the time I have to boil the water. I hate this job, coz I have to lug the kettle, wait at the sink for the water to fill up, plug in it, wait till it’s boiled, then I have to pour it out into our water container, and the water finish up really fast, especially during cell nights. What boiling does is eliminate the salts and bicarbonates that hard water comes with. Boiling water softens it partially. But one day, I decided to get fleck water softener and be done with the monotonous chore of boiling water. I get frustrated when I need to drink…
