I don’t like to write in this blog when Wes is around. This evening he has an iftar do at our religious class centre (let’s call the place AK). He left around 630pm just now and I am now taking the chance to dash off a quick entry whilst I can.
I baked a fudge-y brownie for Ustadh Shafiq this morning before my AI Capital Zoom Meet. Wes wanted to give Ustadh an “iftar pack” (tahapa² entah dalam kepala dia ~ “iftar pack”) when he meets Ustadh Shafiq at the do at AK this evening. I didn’t understand him at first, thinking why would he want to give Ustadh an “iftar pack” if they are already going to have iftar at the centre? Rupanya he wanted to give a Ramadhan gift pack…
Ramadhan dah nak habis dah mana nak cari Ramadhan gift packs lagi ni.. so I just said I’d bake Ustadh and his children the brownies that I usually bake for them. So itulah ceritanya… then whilst I was making the brownies this morning, Wes came down to the kitchen and said he would like to taste a piece. Hadoiii… if I give him a piece, rosaklah the whole look of the entire tray of brownies that I want to give to Ustadh S! SO now…after my taraweeh in a while, I am going to go down to whip up another batch of fudge-y brownies. (I even bought some vanilla ice-cream just now, just for the ‘occasion’! 😆)
Had to meet our lawyer, Richard (Rick), at Dad’s this afternoon. Rick had also requested to meet up with Zane. It was a fruitful meeting I think, because at least Dad and Zane were put up to speed with the latest developments in the progress of our legal action against Rainmaker, Asia Cornerstone, Crest Advisory and ACE.
Rick did say that the case against Rainmaker et al is proving to be difficult because we need to pin the case on the owner of all these disparate companies. The cross-holdings and convoluted network of companies and the structure within which each operates make it very difficult to pin things down on that bagero Michael Marcus Liew. Rick was saying we have to start to think “out of the box”, may have to bend a few (minor) rules to get to where we want.

Auntie V told me that she will be going to Londres after Eid with Maya, her “princess”. They were supposed to go back to the “kampung” but since tak jadi, they are STILL going to go travel. Kata duit tak ada, but still travelling halfway across the world, with airline tickets costing the way they do these days. Mengarut betul. No wonder Dad is loathe to give this woman any money. I think money is like a glowing coal that burns a hole in her pocket… she just HAS to ‘get rid’ of it, no matter what. 🤷🏻♀️
Habis duit esok-esok… don’t look at me 🫤🤷🏻♀️
