no cane no gain in London??

A London gym has come up with a new exercise class which captures the spirit of well known musicals such as Saturday Night Fever and Chicago.

Cane'rcise is a dance-based fitness class choreographed by Phillip Aiden, a successful dancer who has performed in shows such as "Chicago", "My Fair Lady" and "Evita" in London's West End.

Cane-rcise the Broadway?? I think we can be more creative and do better with our very own Malaysian way with ROTAN.

how to get kids to do homework & study for exams?

I have problems getting my 9 yr old twins to do their homework and study for their exams willingly and independantly without having to tail them with "rotan".

As I work outstation, it's pretty exhausted once i get home and have to still run after them on that matter.

Sometimes I also pity them for having too much chinese school homework.

Any suggestions and good tips to tackle this "universal" problem.

Do SAHM have better advantages against working mums on this issue?

Ju had chicken pox!


Ju with her dried up lesions.

When i was carrying Juliana at 8 weeks old in during my 2nd pregnancy, i contracted chicken pox from my twins boys who were about 5 yrs old then. So I thought Ju could have immunity and will not get the virus again.

I was proven wrong when 2 weeks ago, she came back from nursery with many ugly lesions which developed very fast all over her trunk, upper limbs , lower limbs, face and vagina area.

Having had the experience before, taking care of her this time was easier. Put calamine lotion and gave her paracetamol for her fever and antihistamine syrup for her itchiness. Her scalp had the worst problem. MAde sure her hair was washed everyday. Abstain her from nuts, black soya sauce and prevent her from scratching (or at least taught her how to scratch with her finger pulp instead of nails).

Thank God she is recuperating well. Should be able to go to school next week after 2 weeks of absence. Her teacher was nice enough to deliver her homework to her.

How did u manage chicken pox for your kids?
