To help you understand my posts better, I've put together a glossary of terms commonly used in my entries ;)

Kek

It means: cake. 

It all started when I asked my grandma (who is mandarin-speaking),

"Mama, 你的生日快到了,  要我做什么蛋糕 ?"

"我要 stawbelly kek"


Db / Eb / Ab

It means: Da bao, Er bao, Ah bao.

Like literally 大宝, 二宝, 阿宝 LOL. 

During my primary school days, I came up with these nicknames for my 2 younger sisters and myself. Even my parents, relatives and close friends call us Db, Eb and Ab. It's super lame but it just stuck. I ALWAYS have to explain this to new friends, which is quite funny!


Nya Nya

It means: mother. 

I am not Peranakan; picked this up from a TV show and I have been calling my mum Nya Nya ever since.



Ahlao

It means: my husband Ahpei.

You have to read it as 'Ah 老' cos Ahpei is an old soul and really just a very very traditional Chinese uncle despite his age HAHA.


ZBJ

It means: Zhu Ba Jie.

A term I picked up from Ahpei, it can be used to describe almost anything, An annoying person, a cute person, a bowl of noodles, a shitty situation, a funny moment, or just to express a feeling. Like, "Wah zbj, the weather damn hot today!"


Gugubie

It means: my dog Gooby.

Actually he has more than a dozen nicknames accumulated from time to time but I mostly call him gugubie hehe. 
His full name is Gooby Gugubie Gubi Ahgu Bendan Mamading Baobao Wong.
