If you’ve been following my instagram, you’d know the big news already. I’m having a reality show on Astro Ria!!!! It was a long process and we’ve been in talks for months already, and I’ve had my fair share of roller coaster emotions; should I, should I not, should I, should I not.. My goshhhh, […]

my pa
Let me just start by saying by blogging about her, it doesn’t mean I love her more than the rest of the FV team. On the contrary, she’s not even top 20 really. Yawnnnnn. But fine, she’s always with me and she’s people’s point of contact, so I need to introduce her to you guys. Let’s be […]

these two
You can probably tell from the frequency of my blog updates that life has been pretty hectic lately. With the reality show, I’m doing so many shoots and appearances that it’s a little overwhelming. And I still have to do my actual work on the laptop etc, and with the traveling, I have been pretty exhausted […]

a weekend in manila
The kids are asleep now and I’m still chuckling to myself on Daniel’s greeting the moment Dean and I got back home from the airport. “Mommy, you went to Malala?” “Huh?” He looked up to think. “Malina?” “Ohhh! Manila! I went to Manila, sweetheart.” Kids are so cute la seriously. I just got back from […]

that scratch
Yesterday, Dean and Daniel were wrestling around at home, like they always do, they think they’re some UFC champion guys. -___-” And Daniel accidentally scratched Dean in the face. A little bit of blood came out and we were all panicking, super drama as if someone lost an arm or something. Dean cleaned the wound […]

us ducks
I don’t mention them enough and I really should because they pushed me to blog from the very beginning, and this blog is even named after them. Many ask me, why Proudduck? Well, let me take you back to 2002 where I met this crazy group of girls in school. We grew up together, saw […]

we have to share
Every morning the kids wake up and after showering and eating, they play in the toys area. So it’s really a party-pooper thing to go “Daniel, it’s time for school!” and both of them look at me like go-away-Mommy-we-are-playing. There’s no way I can get Daniel excited to leave the house if he’s playing happily […]

happy moms, happy you
On the midnight of Mother’s Day, I was in Singapore with Fadza (gonna start referring to him as Fadza now since “Dean” was just a cover-up so my dad wouldn’t know who my boyfriend was 10 years ago hahahah) for a work trip. So, I was looking at pics of Daniel and Mariam and feeling […]

mariam’s first day of school
Guess who went to school today?! MARIAM!!!!! At 1 year 3 months, she’s now on a half-week basis as a start because I just want to see if she’s ready or not. It all started when I brought her to pick up Daniel from school and she seemed so curious looking at other kids and […]

sneeze it out
So we girls got it down when it comes to grooming, right? Cut nails, nice perfume, and wax the usual areas. I think I’ve kept close attention to all the above, until the flight I had to take with Fadza to Bangkok yesterday. As usual, I’m very manja with him. So I’d snuggle up to […]

exclusively our thing
You know what Dean and I like to do together? (Ok back to calling him Dean because even I feel weird typing Fadza hehe) Well, we like to spend time with the kids. Like really, especially Dean, you can see a twinkle in his eye when his kids are laughing with him, rolling around on […]

as it comes to an end
A reality show has its upside obviously, but it really takes a lot out of you in terms of time and energy. I always thought it’s just people following you around with a camera and you just do what you do everyday. But it’s really not like that! Everything is scheduled according to your personal […]

co-sleeping
My kind of perfect mornings I still remember when Daniel was 1-ish, we were trying to put him to sleep in his own room. Dean and I (he’s back to Dean now cos Fadza is just too weird haha) were comforting each other that it’s the right thing to do and everyone was telling us […]

that meh feeling
I think it’s very easy to get lost in the day-to-day of things. Ever since Iman came into my life, she’s seen the rollercoaster of my job; running around everyday from office to studio to event to warehouse to meetings outside to the shooting of the reality show. This Raya period I’m traveling every single week, […]

the necklace
Dads. I look at Mariam and Dean and I just think there’s something special about dads and daughters. It’s crazy, like Dean and I would do the same exact thing but Mariam will always always choose Dean. Sometimes I roll my eyes at Dean, but I always end up smiling when I see her snuggling […]

queen to frog
It’s so much fun just watching Daniel play these days because he’s at the stage where his imagination is running wild and he has so much energy he talks allllll day. It’s really bizarre that I can actually have conversations with him because he can talk properly now. Weren’t you cooing in your cot just […]

chips and cookies
Our flight was delayed and we had already gone inside the departure gate. Dean asked permission from the crew to leave to the toilet for a while. While he was gone, I whatsapped him an important request. “Baby since you’re out there, can you buy some snacks for the flight? Maybe some chips or cookies […]

ramadhan checklist
When you’re having such a good time with your loved ones, do you ever wish suddenly that when we all “go” one day, we’ll still be together laughing like this in heaven? Except it’ll be a gazillion times more amazing? It gives me goosebumps thinking about it and when the thought of even one of […]

love thy pairs
I have a shoe addiction and I know it. It’s not even something I’ll pretend to hide because I knowwww okkk. When we moved into this new place, Dean already knew that he had to allocate a section for just our shoes (he’s a big shoe person too). But trust me when I say I […]
