Guys, I have so much to blog about but due to my tight schedule (like I have other things to do other than taking care of the kids and window shop :P), I'll postpone blogging till next week when I have more free time. My internet connection was down for the past 3 days so actually I'm stuck with loads of stories but don't know where to start. By next week when I blog again, the story will be too

Erwin's pics are great.... I just look fat in it =.= Not to worry.... he's coming back in September. Me and Ria dkk decide to have a photo session with him then. Hopefully by that time I'm able to shed a few kilos off. Anyone interested in a prewed photo session with Erwin? Trust me.... he's a whole load of fun. In fact, Irene & Ivan are going to have their pics taken with him this July 20th in

Took my girls and my nephew to Waterbom on Tuesday. The place was really crowded but it was pretty okay. Still got to enjoy ourselves. I ordered this unique pizza called "Kintamani Pizza".It costs Rp 59K but it's okay for that price since it took 3 of us to finish it. The taste wasn't so bad either. We left Waterbom at 6pm.Yesterday, we went to Senayan City with my MIL, MIL's sister and Susan.

I'm excited. Been chatting with Therry and I'm seriously thinking about leaving Blogger for Wordpress. Can't believe after blogging for almost 4 years, I'm finally saying goodbye to blogger. My new url will be almost as identical as Therry's. She gives me the consent to use it hahaha... Aboutivy.com isn't available and I'm just not creative enough to think of another name so Therry asked if I

Friday, 27th May 2008Had McDonald's for breakfast. I miss their big breakfast. McD has opened up in Jakarta for so long yet they never have breakfast menu. So sad.... Then off we went to Takashimaya to shop. Planning to shop a lot but turned out it was the kids who shop the most =.= We first went to the kids' section. Bought some clothes for my nieces and nephews. Saw some erasers too which I

A short update about my weekend in Singapore.On Thursday, we left the house at about 8am. Our flight SQ 955 was really on time. At exactly 10.30am it took off. We weren't seated all together. Casey and me were in the row in front of Cecil & Sam.Food was served as per Sam's choice. The good thing about taking SQ flight is we can choose our menu online. Cool, eh? I also just know about it from Sam.

I was just being told by Irene about what's going on in IC. IC is sooo basi. After hearing what she said and saw what people been calling her, I told her to stop wasting her time there. There's a saying "Those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." All I can say, Irene is one of the least fake people I ever come across. So what if she speaks her mind? At least she's honest and

Am home now.... Such a short weekend and kinda disappointing actually. Sam has troubles again in the warehouse. Poor him =.= Will be blogging more tomorrow when I'm less tired. Don't wish to come back. This trip feels too short to be enjoyed thoroughly and I spent more than normally but it's like the money just disappeared into thin air. No proof or whatsoever to indicate what the money has been

My last entry for the week. Hopefully by next Monday I will be blogging again. Tomorrow will be busy, busy day for me. I need to pack since I will be leaving on Thursday. I know it's only S'pore but it's a rare chance that we all go as a family... just the 4 of us.Today, I went to PS for pedicure. Had a 3 o'clock appointment with Ikah. Kids went to games arcade as usual. When I was finished, went

Will it be rude if I just tell my FIL why my old maid refused to come back to work with us? Will it be okay to tell him that it's not about the salary? I'm getting pretty stressed out coz he keeps comparing the new maids to the old. Okay, maybe the new ones aren't so smart but I think they are actually okay and what I like about them is their perseverance; no matter how my FIL scolded them, they

So it was another pretty good weekend. Yesterday I spent almost the whole day at home and only left the house at 5pm. We were due in Sam's cousin's house for a wedding reception at 7pm but since it's in Tebet, my MIL suggested us leaving earlier fearing the heavy traffic around that area after office hours will make us late.We stopped by to fill in the petrol and bought some light snacks in case

Toyed around with wordpress for awhile since morning but until I'm satisfied, I think I'll stick with blogger first.Will be home the whole day today since we have a wedding to attend this evening. Last night Sam & I talked about what he wants for his birthday. I told him that since I will get my interest from the Citibank time deposit by end of October, he's free to state what he wants for his

I'm in an extremly good mood today but before I elaborate more about my day, I just want to send a message to all my haters out there. Ga usah deh ngutusin orang to do your dirty job. Mau tau alasan kenapa gua ga demen ma lu, tinggal tanya langsung. Ga usah suruh orang laen ngorek2. Mana cara ngoreknya super norak banget. If we answer, that's because we're just playing along. We're not as stupid

Finally....time for me to update my blog. Been a pretty hectic couple of days for me *sounding like a very busy career woman* :PSam decided not to go to the morning mass on Sunday so we stayed home and only went out to have lunch in Sate House Senayan in Puri. Got home at 12.45pm which gave us only 15 mins to get ready since we have a photo session with Erwin at 1pm. He's really punctual. At 1pm

Just came back from Plaza Indonesia. Today we went to EX to watch "Kungfu Panda".It's been awhile since I watched a cartoon movie I thoroughly enjoy and I must say I truly love Kungfu Panda. It's a must watch!Before that we all had lunch in En Restaurant. I ordered the fried rice. no time for dessert since we were already late.After the movie, went to Planet Sports where Sam bought new school

I didn't get to see Cing2's baby after all. I left the house at around 11.30am and the journey was a pretty smooth one except 1 km before the destination, the traffic was really bad. I reached there at almost 12.30pm. Felix, Cing2's hubby, was there when we first got inside the room. 5 mins later Suli joined us. We went to the babies' room but we couldn't see the baby. We have to be satisfied

After all I decide to make this blog public, right? I have nothing to hide. My previous entry isn't to make any of you uncomfortable. No intention of that.

Well, first of all, I will point out names in this blog so if u think it's about u, better don't stay to read as I'm not going to be polite like I used to. Reason why I put up sitemeter on my blog is to know the ongoing traffic. And considering my bad experience with IC blog, the need to know who and who visits my blog is more than before. It's funny how I was accused by so-called someone that I

So I'm in a much more compromising mood today and ready to share my weekend with you guys. On Saturday, we left home at about 1.30pm and reached Plaza Indonesia at around 2pm. Ria & Wito were already there and greeted me just outside Hugo Boss Boutique. We went up to The Soup Restaurant where Suli & Franky joined us a couple of minutes later. That was my 1st time eating there and I must say the

If I have to describe the kinds of emotion I've been through in just one day, it will be too bizarre. I don't believe I ever had such a mixed up kinda feelings before. Happy, sad, anxious, frustrated, disappointed, at wits' end, excited, worried, annoyed, amused, bitchy, disgusted, hopeless, irritated, etc, etc... the list goes on. Yeah, it's that bad!!! And what's worse, I have learned to keep

Weekend is here again. Can't be anymore happier ^.^ On Thursday, kids were already having holidays so I decided to take them out to play. Our initial plan was to go to Waterbom for a swim but I remembered I just had my hair smoothed out so I can't wet it yet. What a bummer! To make up for it, I took them to Senayan City to play in the games arcade. Before that we had lunch in Urban Kitchen that

I can't believe even with me writing boring stuffs in my blog, people still expect me to blog often. No wonder Xiaxue always get pressurized to blog more....and my life isn't even half as interesting as hers. Exclude my 'best friends'. I know they can't live without knowing what's going on in my life. Can't help it. I'm their idol. But to have my own friends asking me all the time, "Hey Ivy...not

Went to my dad's house yesterday and was told by the maid something really shocking about my younger bro. Just sadden me more that I have to find it out from the maid instead of from my bro himself. Apparently none of my family members know about it yet except the maid. Really in so much despair.We then went to EX to watch "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of The Crystal Skull" at the Premiere.I

Slightly more than a week ago, I asked my personal & talented designer, Wiwin, to help me design a tag for Sweet Sale so I can print it out and stick to the stuffs people bought from us. Wanted to have it professionally printed but figured that it's more costly if I do that so I printed my own stickers since the printer's ink is complimentary from Sam's office. I can just get them for free hehehe

This trailer is freaking awesome!!And Kungfu Panda is also coming out soon I heard. So many new movies to look forward to.

Not something you expect to read after being absent for days. Next week though, I'll blog as normal again. I feel so loved being missed by so many people.

Tuesday's been a really frustrating day for me. It's a long story but it's enough to make me shout and cry at the same time. And it's all because of my FIL. I wish I didn't have to put on a fake smile coz it's so hard to do so but on the other hand, blame it on my parents who teach me to always be polite to older people. Sometimes I think being fake is necessary... after all u are not living in a

It's funny how blogging really depends on my mood. Sometimes I got tons of things to blog about but too lazy to do so....and when I find the time to do it, I totally forgot what I want to share.

Fenny told me last night that since I'm a Hokkien (which I'm very proud of) I should listen to this Hokkien song in Imeem. So today, I put time aside to listen to it. It's actually from the song "Lemon Tree" but the lyrics are nothing like it. Hahaha... It's so freaking funny and it's pretty true actually. Yon and Wiwin should listen to this in case you both haven't. As for Ria or Suli, you both

I made a new account in Multiply today. I know, I'm a little late hehehe... But this account is not for blogging or interact with friends. It's for a charity purpose. Just the other day I was thinking about some clothes I have that I do not wear anymore or that I bought but turns out don't suit me at all. It will not seem right donating the clothes to orphanage or other places since most of my

Went out since morning today after dropping the kids to school. First I went to Angke and waited for Emmy outside her house till she came out at around 8am. Then we went to Versa Travel to sit down and chit chat to update on the latest news among the Lim family hehehe... I left Angke around 9.10am and wanted to go to Mangga Dua at first. Yuyu, Sam's friend, apparently hasn't gotten the thank-you

It's a wonderful day for me overall. Starting with my kids who made me Mother's Day cards. Not as sweet as last year but to me, their thoughts are much, much more valuable than any presents in the world. I couldn't stop laughing when I read what Cecil wrote in the card though. You will know why as soon as you see it.From CaseyThis is the closer version of what the card reads:From CecilLMAO....

It was a pretty torturing day for us today. We left home at 11am for the dentist. The traffic in Tomang was really bad and we reached Dr Noto's place at almost 1pm. Crazy. Not only that but we had to wait another 1 hour for our turn. Dr Noto said Cecil has to wait another 1-2 years before she puts on braces since it will take longer time for her if she puts it on now. As for Casey's, the holes in

One more day before my maid goes back. I already have 3 more but they are all new. Luckily they are hardworking so it makes the teaching loads easier. It really gets on my nerves when I get stubborn ones or the plain dumb ones or even the ones who always spend their time whoring with the construction guys or the 'hansip'. Whoring in this means, flirting at all times. I'm glad that I never

I'm not over with my rants yet. 2 of my old maids are going back too. Well, one has gone back yesterday and the other one will be leaving on Saturday, leaving me with 3 new maids. I'm not sure if I'm able to go out this weekend or not. I feel uncomfortable leaving the house with the new maids. If u see lesser updates this past few weeks, from next week on it will be worse.

The nightmare isn't over yet. Cecil's the one down with fever today. Just when I thought everything is going to be better after yesterday. Casey has recovered. But last night, Cecil was shivering just when I was about to sleep. That was about 11pm. I gave her pamol and had to wait since she normally perspired after eating the medicine. It was at 12am when I finally got to sleep. At almost 3am, I

Okay, I think I'm going to have sore throat soon. 2 of my maids have gone home so I'm left with just 2. This certainly has been a really bad week for me =.=On Thursday, met up with Ayink, her hubby and her daughter in Puri Mal. Ria & Wito joined us about 15 mins afterwards. We were later joined by Ayink's friends. Little Shirlyn is really cute and she always gives that cute grin whenever she sees

Can't blog in details at the moment coz my head is really heavy right now. Been taking care of 2 people at the same time so I didn't have much sleep. Sam & Casey are having fever. Even though they are getting better, I think I might be the one getting sick. So, these were the pics taken on Thursday when Ria, Wito & me met up with Ayink, her daughter, Shirlyn and her hubby in Puri Mal.Will blog

Yeah lately I'm feeling too lazy to update my blog. Too many things happening at once. Ivan (my younger bro) called me up the other day and told me about the problem he's going thru. Frankly, I don't know what to say.... and I don't intend to get myself involve in his problem. After all, if that's the path he chooses, then let it be. I know him well...if he has set his mind on something, nothing

My weekend this time went by just so-so although I did have fun on Saturday shopping hehehe.... Yesterday was totally ruined.On Saturday, FIL decided not to go out with us at the last minute so the kids n I went to Sumire to have lunch. After going there for so many times, I finally got a chance to take a pic hahaha... Well, this is how the restaurant is like:I wanted to eat the Kobe Beef again

Finally my internet connection is back on. It's not FastNet's fault. Anyway, not even sure I was up to blogging yesterday coz my day was totally wrecked. I felt so fucked up yesterday. No words can quite describe it but today, I'm doing so much better. It's a long story and I don't feel like sharing. A couple of years ago, I could blog whatever I want.... but after years of experience, I learnt

When u have missed out blogging a couple of days' entries, u tend to get lazy. Well, at least for me it's like that. Nothing interesting to share. On Sunday, went to my dad's house as usual. My dad bought the kids "Horton Hears a Who?" DVD so we watched it there. It's hilarious and somewhat like "Chicken Little" where no one believes what u say until it really happens. Around 4pm, we went to

Finally, after all this time.... This is the 1st time I beat Yon & Suli in watching in a movie hehehe.... Yeah, "The Forbidden Kingdom" was the movie I watched in EX Premiere just now with Sam n the kids. For me, I prefer it to "Three Kingdoms" coz it's less heavier n less brutal. Like any normal Jackie Chan's movies, there's a lighter side of it as well. There's this actress named Yifei Lui who

Yesterday's conference with Ria dkk was really hilarious. I don't know who started it but when I was invited back into the conference room, Ria & Suli were already making a list. Inspired by Therry's "100 things about me", they intended to make : 500 facts about me & my "best friends" on my behalf LOL... It was downright funny I tell u but I think it would be unwise to blog about it coz I don't

I tried this before but using a different picture. I think Casey got the same answer but Cecil's one was a bit different. She was equally like Sam n me last time. Casey is so gonna get mad if she sees this again hehe... Last time when I tried it out and told her the answer, she demanded that I tried it again using another pic. She wanted the Look-alike Meter to read out that she looks more like

The day I will be blogging on regular basis again will probably be next week. Damn... I still got to rush off to print some pics for Casey's goody bags. I'm never ever gonna let the girls have anymore party! Takes too much of my time and money. Even though most of the stuffs are paid by my FIL, but things like snacks and cupcakes are all out of my own money and they don't come cheap =.= Better

Speaking on Casey's behalf, thanks for all the birthday wishes for her. We didn't really celebrate it yesterday. I just ordered some cupcakes from Gina and put some candles on top of the cuppies for her to blow.Casey didn't go to school yesterday as she woke up at 3am when Sam came back and she couldn't sleep till 5am =.= Sam said rather than risk her getting sick, might as well let her have a

As per Yon's request, I'm posting the pic of the Stitch I bought for her. No matter how I take the pic, I can't find the right angle to do so which is so frustrating. U just have to see with your own eyes. It's supposed to be some sort of a tissue box cover and it will look much better with the tissue box inside it.As for today, I stayed home the whole day and played game. Watched DVD in the

Something's wrong with her XL so we need to go to XL Center to find out what is the problem.Today was bloody hot out there. I felt like I was in an oven.

I watched "Cleaner" last night starring 2 of my favorite actors; Samuel L. Jackson & Ed Harris. Can't find the poster so I'm going to post the trailer instead.I think it's a pretty good one even though it's kinda predictable. Ed Harris always plays the bad guy so it's not really difficult for me to guess hehehe... I love Ed Harris's movies and Sam always calls him my "boyfriend" Geez... he's old

This morning, fetched Susan at around 9am again and we reached Mangga Dua too early thus we walked around first. She showed me this shop she normally goes to to buy fake branded stuffs.

Left the house at around 9:10am today. Fetched Susan from her house before going to Mangga Dua. It's been years since I'd been there honestly. If I wasn't mistaken, it was before I moved to Kebon Jeruk. I used to look for thank-you gifts from there when I was still staying in Sunter. When I moved here, I never went back there anymore. Normally I go to Mangga Dua Mall so I was kinda amazed at how

Heard from my cousin that Ivan has broken up with Lie Yong. U know, when you've been together with someone for too many years, it just feels different when they suddenly aren't part of your life anymore. I've known Lie Yong longer than I knew Sam so I'm feeling kinda sad that this all had to end this way. My dad and Cin2 are so against of Lie Yong becoming a part of our family that it puts a

Ria told me this morning that Irene's been finding me n wanting to show me some hilarious videos. So I went to Irene's blog to check it out. Irene asked us to guess who does Ms Swan remind us of and when I watched it, I knew instantly who she meant. But I personally think this video looks more like the one Irene's referring to:Anyway, there are more videos of Ms Bunny Swan. How corny the name is

I fell asleep and now I couldn't sleep anymore. Yesterday was one of those days where my energy was being wrung out of me. This is the time when I need God the most. Not that I'm having problems with Sam again. Sam n I are perfectly fine. It's regarding Ivan. I just hope God gives us the strength to go thru this moment. I believe He will. He has shown me His love in so many ways and I'm sure this

The girls & I went with Sam to his office today to drop him off. Then we headed for Menara Kebon Sirih, which is situated very near to Sam's office. Dropped the pork sausages for Cn but she was in a meeting so I passed it to the receptionist. She kept eyeing at me suspiciously...maybe wondering if it was bomb in that crumpled white plastic bag I handed over to her.It was 11.30pm when I got out of

22nd Mar 2008A really relaxing and quiet day for the 4 of us. Had breakfast as usual in Starz Diner.Rest for awhile before changing into our swimming attires. Planned to have a day of fun in Waterbom today. Casey wore her newly bought bikini :It feels nice isn't it to be chubby yet so confident of your own body? I would be too if I am a kid. I wouldn't give a damn about looking fat or worrying if

21st Mar 2008Had breakfast in Starz Diner inside HR Hotel.It was an okay breakfast. There were other better buffets but it's still passable.At around 11am, the driver from Monex Bali came to fetch us and drove us to Bali Safari & Marine Park which was situated in Jl. Bypass Prof. Dr. Ida Bagus Mantra. Yon was there the day before and she said it was good so we thought of bringing the kids to see

I can't sleep yet so I thought might as well stay up to blog a little. I'm going to stretch my stories so it makes u think my trip was far more interesting than reality hihihi.... It's really fun for the 4 of us even though there were lesser places we went to this time.The afternoon before our departure, I made Baked Pork Chops for lunch.We left the house around 2.30pm for the airport.

I'm back. U guys must be missing me a lot already hihihi.... I don't have that many pics to put up since most of the time I was in Bali, it was spent around the same area. We only went out of our normal hang out places on Friday. That's when we went to the Safari Park. Will follow up with pics and stories. Not many interesting things to tell u actually. It's a really relaxing week for the 4 of us

Who would have thought Thai food is actually quite easy to cook as long as u got the right ingredients? I cooked my 3rd Thai dish today and I must say this book is a keeper. Today I only cooked Lemon Grass Prawns (Takrai Goong) and Broccoli in Oyster Sauce. Can't do much since I still got my luggage to pack. Anyway this is dinner:It has the smell of lemon grass, coriander, galangal (lengkuas in

Ivan just called me and told me that the misunderstanding between Lie Yong n him have been cleared. I somehow feel that he said that so that I won' worry =.= I really love them both and it bothers me a lot when I heard what my SIL said earlier. I mean, they have been together even longer than Sam n I so I really would not like to see any of them hurt. This reminded me of 1 IC member. I pretended

Do turn off my mp3 player first before watching the videos.Since yesterday we only went to my dad's place and back home, there's nothing to tell actually but the girls really had me in stitches especially Casey. On the other hand, they were testing on my patience when I tried to go over their school work with them. Really irritating. Felt really tired grumbling and grumbling but at night before

It's been a great week for me. My kids were so testing my patience but at the same time entertaining as well. Hahaha... On Friday noon, they did go for the cooking lesson in Ranch Market. They were taught how to decorate Easter Egg chocolates and also taught how to make muffins. Since I could be with them throughout the lesson, I only managed to take a couple of pics just before they were

Okay, this is a quick update coz I have to fetch the kids later and then I have to bring them to Ranch Market for their cooking class. Yes, they are attending a cooking class hehehe....

Just finished cooking. I made Acar Kacang today. It used to be my family's favorite. My mom used to make that for us and we all love it so much.Was surprised that even Cecil, who normally doesn't eat vegetables except broccoli, said it's yummy. Should have made more. I myself finished half the plate hahaha...I just got a piece of good news from Sam regarding our Easter holiday. Yes, we finally

Sunday was a pretty much boring day for me. We went to my dad's house and then to Plaza Senayan. Yup 2 days in a row. Sam wanted to look for tees in Guess and asked me to choose something I like too but I couldn't find any so I didn't get anything. We then eat in Din Tai Fung. Ordered the Fried Calamari, Xiao Long Bao and Beef Noodles. Also tried the Bubble Tea which tastes yucky =.=We went to

Sam couldn't join us yesterday as he had to go to the warehouse with Tedja. So, at 12pm, we left the house for Plaza Senayan. We wanted to eat in Steak House in Four Seasons Hotel at first but realizing that it would take too much time, we ended up having lunch in Pier 9 in PS.This restaurant is pretty new and I've walked pass it a couple of times. When we went inside, only 2 tables were filled

Can't quite describe what a fun day it was yesterday. I have to send Cecil to Apt Kedoya at around 10.30am coz her friend has asked her to go over for a swim. After dropping her, Casey and I went to TA. We had our late breakfast in Delifrance. We ordered:Poomes FritesCowboy ClassicCote D'agneauCoffee Mocca FloatThe 3rd one is lamb chop.

I was very ambitious yesterday. Why is that so? I cooked 3 dishes and made a dessert. That breaks my record as a housewife LOL I cooked 7 dishes once but that was when I was still studying in Singapore and it was a requirement in the exam so no avoiding it. That story is for another day to tell though. To cook 4 types of different food on my own free will....now, that's a record for me.Let me

I never really paid attention on how to get there even though I've been there for like dozens of times.

Decided to try out a new restaurant which is situated just a couple of buildings from Sam's office. It's called Shanghai Blue 1920 The place looks old from the outside. Can't believe it's only been there for 2 years.It's pretty dark inside too just like Dapur Babah but a little brighter than that. It does look cozy and romantic like what the book says and I'm sorry I just haven't put myself 100%

I think sometimes God is too kind to me. Why? Coz He always has a way of 'showing' me what I don't know. Well, I know actually but all this time I was guessing and today He got my feelings confirmed.

My 2nd entry of the day. Since Sam has to go out for dinner, I decided to bake a cake today out of curiosity. Yes, I only bake when I'm curious about something not because I have a passion for it.

Saturday was a pretty boring day for me since Cecil had a change of plan and decided to finish her school project at home. So we didn't have lunch in Samudra Seafood TA as planned.

I love the season of Lent, that is 40-day period before the Easter. That is when we Catholics are required to fast and even though by right we are only supposed to do that on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, Sam always does it every Wednesday and Friday within that period. I find myself lucky coz I only need to cook vegetables hehehe... So much for thinking hard what to cook for dinner.Last night I

Why in the world they don't make guys like that in Asia? When I saw this video an hour ago, I couldn't help but drool over it. I know I'm married with kids but it's just a sin not to admire something so beautiful hehehe.... Matthew.... if I ever decide to have a baby boy (which I doubt very much), I will name him that.

We didn't go to church yesterday. My MIL has gone to States and she'll be gone for a month. Let's see if I'm too lazy to go to church again next week hihihi.... Left home at 11.30am.
