0 Sutera Damansara - Gloria Residences at glorious prices

Starting price for this 2.5 storey semidee is above RM1mil. So I guess only well-to-doers are welcome here. That eliminates me...but no harm being nosey. Deluxe finishes..like the sink? Impressive A done up unit Spacious living area High windows for the rooms Big enough for a teh tarik session Water feature for the garden Would I buy it if I had the money? A definite no since that amount of money gives me options ... lots of other options. But this is just me, to each his own, ...

0 Sutera Damansara - Floria Residences

Feast your eyes on this. Floria Residences 2-storey semidees, from RM1mil onwards. It's Sutera Damansara's very own millionaire's row. Why would anyone who could afford to pay this amount live here..I wonder. Would they not have considered Desa Parkcity, Bangsar or Mont' Kiara?..Beats me. Deluxe finishes, guys The exterior Ground floor, unfurnished unit Bedroom upstairs Stairway Kitchen For a million dollar unit, I sure wish they'd put better sinks in place. It'd be nice to just move into a unit without having to renovate ..I mean, did we not pay for a home we could move into immediately? It's just weird having to rebuild...

0 A home at Sutera Damansara?

I'm always on the lookout for new property..the home-staying kind. Call it a hobby, an obsession or whatever you like. I just get an adrenaline rush sizing up home designs and their surrounding areas. And here I am at Sutera Damansara - this was in October 2010...hehe  Type of units offered Sutera Damansara offers a mixed development of Terraces and Semidees. Whoever named these residences was obviously too "ceRIA" with this God given task. Hence, we now have  RIA, FLORIA and GLORIA adorning the once exclusive Damansara address. Ria II - What was advertised Ria...

0 Cookies for Christmas - Puppies..how cute!

A gem I found at Ikano Power Centre recently. Puppy shaped Horlicks cookies laced with Koko Krunch and chips of chocolate? Pure enlightenment...to the eyes and gastronomically. I love 'em....light, crunchy and addictive. They're "oh-so-delicious". I imagine serving this to friends at our Christmas party. Can be purchased at the titbits stall located at the lower ground floor of Ikano Power Centre  (Near the travelator at Dunkin' Donuts). Priced around RM25 per container. I was informed that it was a new addition to the stall, made by the owner herse...

0 Property advice an average me can do without

Buying a home costs a bomb these days and I blame it on ill-informed buyers or investors who fork out an obscene amount of money to buy sub-standard properties all because they can. I blame it on banks who approve long term loans for huge amounts for the average Malaysian, who can ill-afford to purchase that decent house or car. They're putting many ordinary Malaysians into huge debts and they're doing no favours for the future generation.  Without serious intervention from right-minded people, it's likely that Malaysia will be a haven for low cost quarters because that's going...

0 Family and Friends - How can I not love you?

I'm really happy today, and it's not because I won another contest. Funnily, my usually low-key Facebook friends and family members stepped up to congratulate me openly today. People make mistakes all the time and I did just that with a less than perfect slogan....I willingly gave the prize up and that was that. Well..I thought that was that! And then it started,  the comments slowly trickled in..congratulatory messages and heartfelt support...awww.. I ♥ these guys. They didn't have to, but they did and they even turned a blind eye. I know that should I ever fall..and...

2 We're all takers..

How very true....Just a line off a movie I recently watched, "Takers". Reminded me how we all love to take more than we give. Anyway, this movie's about a group of professional bank robbers, betrayed by their fellow member, Ghost (Rapper T.I.), who had just been released from jail. It turns out that Ghost had only revenge in mind when he convinced the gang to take up a "job" with millions at stake. Why was he mad? They bailed on him when he was caught by the police and his girl got engaged to one of the other members.   An interesting plot and it could've been a great movie, but I...

0 Adam Lambert - The glamour and the clamour

At the end of the concert, I was sure I lost some of my hearing. That's what you get when Adam Lambert's 10,000 strong Malaysian fans scream in euphoria. Peace, was when he sang an acoustic version of "Whataya want from me". The crowd sang along and I felt as though we were all falling under a magical spell from the doe eyed looks I could see on everyone's faces. It was a good crowd with a mix of all ages. No worries about being the old lady trying to fit into the young fold, like some of the concerts I've been to. As the stadium fills Digi balloons being bounced about  Seeing his...

0 Adam Lambert Rock Zone Tickets, but did we rock it?

Awww...my best friend bought us tickets to Adam Lambert's Glam Nation concert in Stadium Putra. He knew how much I wanted to see Adam sing live. Most of the tickets were sold out, so he had to make do. The ticket counters: It's all sold out, ma'am. How bout these way back here? What I didn't expect was a phone call from Mix FM the day before the concert, "Hi, Congratulations! You've won 2 Rock Zone tickets to Adam Lambert's concert tomorrow!", a warm and friendly voice said to me. I was hard pressed to refuse. So I said, " Reaaallly?!! Thank you! Thank you so much, William!". The contest? Click here.  I gave...

0 Look Out Point, Ampang

We just felt like doing a bit of sightseeing, so we headed out to Look Out Point, Ampang one fine afternnon. The weather was fairly gloomy throughout our journey, but bless the sky for not sending heavy rain down upon us. Alleluia! Location was an easy find thanks to the very detailed description they left on the website. A note of caution though, the last couple of kilometres leading to Look Out Point is a winding road and I have my doubts about it being brightly lit at night, as is common for most roads out of the main hub of the city. There are carparks located up the hill...
