Lately I’ve noticed a change in my regular kuih-muih stall at Bandong. They seem to be selling more and more cakes of various varieties e.g. this one that they call “cheese batik cake”… It is really very nice with the cheese cream and the grated cheese on top of the rich batik cake. I can’t [...]
Have you heard the 7 Lontong Song before? I’m sure you have but if you insist that you haven’t, then just click and watch this video clip… Hahahahaha!!! I told you that you’ve heard it before but you would not believe me! Anyway, it’s not the season yet – still a long way to go! [...]

Anybody dropping by Sibu is most warmly welcomed to put up at my place. There is a spare room… …with a queen-size double bed.

An ex-student posted this video clip on Facebook the other day and I reposted the link there as well. Actually, I had stumbled upon a copy of the story sometime ago and I had used it in my English language lessons. I can’t remember but I might have adapted it and changed it to a [...]
Actually, it was Clare who linked the following report to my profile on Facebook yesterday. It had been taken from NST Online… You’re too fat to be a teacher, woman told 2009/10/21 KUCHING: When Joanna Gilbert Asson was accepted for a postgraduate course at the Teachers Training College Rajang, she was beside herself with joy.
