You Made My Day

What else can a teacher ask for more than having students that never forgets you? This morning I received a very sweet Christmas card from a past student who is now currently studying in Singapore. Her name is Yi Houy and she had been my student for 2 years. She’s definitely one of the sweetest girls in the class and the most talkative too The card is simple but the words are warm and sweet. It made my day complete and it has put a smile on my face. I’ll admit that I miss your presence in the class – though you annoy me most of the time. I never had a “fan” who have love me like you do, and you’re very much cherished because of that. So Yi Houy, I hope you’ll give your best in everything you do. Remember that I’m...

Foot and Nail Pampering Day

Ever since I was a kid, my parents thought me the importance of having clean and trimmed nails at all times. My dad will always remind us that our nails reflect the kind of person we are, but I didn’t really believe this. Though I know that having nice manicured nails make me more sexy Growing up with my mom while my dear father is out of the country to work, home manicure became a mother-daughter bonding, where she will always make our hand and feet pretty. I love it especially when she applies nail polish to my nails, which is like a cherry on top of an ice cream. Now that I’m a mother, I’m doing the same thing to my kids, but the twist is we do it in a salon. Blame work for not having time to clean them myself, boohoo. So this Saturday,...

Porcorn Nights

Since decent movie cinemas started to operate in Phnom Penh, Wednesday nights has become a popcorn time for my family. Yes, I call it popcorn night because that’s what we nibble while watching the latest movie in the city Juggling work, family, and social life is sometimes strenuous and I will admit time is never enough to do everything at once. So, simple as we are in the family, movie-night-Wednesday is always worth looking forward to. You can tell exactly from my children’s face that it’s their most favorite day of the week, so spoil it not. By the way, Real Steel by Hugh Jackman is epic! The story is fantastic and my kids loved it, we all did actually. The boxing robot is like a reality to every kids’ fantasy, especially for those...

What do you do when it’s bed weather?

I told myself that I’d be doing loads of things this holiday since we’re not going anywhere. But dang! It’s the 3rd day of our long holiday now, and I still haven’t done much aside from sleeping, cuddling, watching movies, and eating. All of these I blame to the bed weather we’re experiencing. The kids  are the same too. Round the clock they’re watching the movies till they fall asleep. Couch potatoes as you’d say So what are the best things you can do when bed weather strikes? Here are some things that came in my mind: > Line up your fave movies/DVDs and get ready for a movie-marathon with your love ones. > Make easy to cook foods like popcorn, pasta, sandwiches, or dumplings. These will save you time in...
