Lots of ple say it a good date for marriage.. 999 in Chinese means long-lasting. However, as it falls in the lunar 7th mth, aka ghost mth. Therefore no much weddings are held on this date. Maybe some ROMs or non-chinese are having weddings today bah.<br /><br />For me, I’m not gtg married again. I just hoping & praying that my girl will pop! Today is the 37th wk & 6th day! I only left with 2 wks to EDD, so why cant she juz pop today? I have so much difficulties walking ard, sitting down, & even laying down to slp. Cant really slp well even if I slp early at nite. Keep waking up juz to shift my tummy from one side to the other side. I have to occupy 2/3 of a king-sized bed! Terrible!<br /><br />Anyway, I love today date coz it gng to be easy for me to rmbr her birthday if she is born today. I always take some time to recall my son’s bday. What a failure mummy m I hor! But I read in the forum that TMC is super crowded last nite, bed & labour wards r full! Tink every mummies like me wan a 090909 baby. I don wan to be induce. I’m wan a natural born baby.. so all I can do now is WAIT for water bag breaking, spotting or more closely-interval contractions…<br /><br /><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">Girl, r u coming out today???</span></strong>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158220712044953986.post-11622873735355576542009-09-01T02:16:00.000-07:002009-09-01T02:18:32.933-07:00BirthdayMy birthday was last Sunday. Somehow I felt there was nothing much of a big celebrations anywhere. Maybe I’m too tired and was waiting for a bigger birthday surprise, which eventually never took place.<br /><br />Poly frenz celebrated wif me last mon, actually they chose a nice cosy antique restaurant to celebrate, but I saw the menu was quite plain, so I opt for another Japanese rest, related to Ajisen. Nothing much happen except eat & chat..<br /><br />Previous Saturday, hb treated me to buffet lunch at kushinbo –suntec. Next we went for a 1-for-1 ride at the Singapore Flyer.<br /><br />Sunday, we went down to my parents’ place. My mum cooked crabs for my hb.. coz he’s a picky eater. Nxt hb n I headed to swensen to buy an ice-cream cake n brought back to my mum’s hse to celebrate & eat.<br /><br />Last thu, my colleagues though of throwing a surprise bday party for me.. guess it shd be a cake. But I refused to cancel my Friday leave, so no party was held in the end. But still I’m glad they have the thought! Haha~<br /><br />My sis bought me a pink-rabbit vibrating pillow. My son luv the pillow so much.. but he know it’s MY pillow.. so he don dare to dirty my pillow.. Haha~<br /><br />That’s how I spend my birthday. Simple & plan rite?<br /><br />Well, I wasn’t dare to plan any big celebration as I was hoping that my ger will pop on my bday to celebrate wif me. But nothing happen during that 24hrs. She’s still nursing in my tummy.. kicking me every now & then.. giving me lot of fake alarms…<br /><br />I went to the forum to chk juz now. Saw 2 pax has popped. 1 popped on 27th, another pop on 20th august. The 20th Aug was born at 35th wk, and he is so healthy that he get to discharged as normal even though he’s a pre-matured baby.<br /><br />Ytd I went to visit my gynae. I was told I gained 1.1kg in 2wks time. But sadly, my ger has only gain 100grams! Gynae say mayb the previous scan was overstated, or this rd scan was not accurate as the ultrascan wasn’t clear enough. Baby is only 2.28kg at 36wk 4days old! How to give birth naturally even if I wan her to pop today, 010909! Or 090909 with her small size? I hope she gain more weight n at least 2.5kg wen she pop. Today doesn’t seem to have much symptoms… so a nice birth date 010909 is most likely out again!<br /><br />I have so much difficulties in walking ard, sitting n lying down.<br /><br />I’m very <strong>tired, tiRED, TIRED</strong>!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158220712044953986.post-17005754614520136692009-08-18T22:54:00.000-07:002009-08-18T22:55:46.746-07:00Ready, Well-Prepared!I’m quite emotionally breakdown recently. Maybe due to lack of slp. Couldn’t slp thru the nite with my extreme big tummy. So any idiot who come harass me will get his mouth stuck to his asshole!<br /><br />Ok.. enuff of venting my anger. The issue is none of my biz, so no use blogging or complaining here.<br /><br />Oh yes.. I’m 5wks away from my due date. Baby is super active, maybe due to the lack of space for her to turn ard. She’s quite big in size, from wat gynae mentioned. Guess I stuff her wif too much buffets n sweeties.. Cant stop my mouth fr biting those sweet stuffs, durians, buffets.. Always put on extra fats during preggie one!<br /><br />Last fri, I experienced bad contractions.. ard 6-7 times for the whole day. Went for checkup on mon, gynae say it normal for 2nd pregnancy. Unless it so frequent that it has a few time within an hr, den I muz report in for delivery. Gynae also mentioned tt baby is big & safe to deliver now if she wan to pop out. Coz her weight n size is acceptable, although pre-mature, but still safe. For me, I don wan her out now.. she muz wait for another 1wk+, n pop out on my birthday. Tt is wat I hope for.. hee~<br /><br />I cleared most of my pending lists:<br />-Signed up wif cordlife for cord blood banking.<br />- Confirmed my maternity leave wif my boss, distribute works to fellow colleagues<br />- Cut my hair VERY short.<br />- Prepared toys for exchanges btwn bro & sis.<br />- Got a set of beautiful name for baby.<br />- Hospital bag is ready, except camera & lappie only.<br /><br />I only left baby clothes to wash, camera & lappie to check for charged battery. But still I hope baby only pop out on my birthday. Then it will be the best bday gift for me.. although I cant celebrate if it really happen on the same day.. but in future.. I get to celebrate wif her together!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158220712044953986.post-78429177525839692452009-07-23T00:02:00.000-07:002009-07-23T00:05:06.733-07:0080% Prepared!How I arrived at 80%? I dunno either. But I noe I more than 50% prepared for my delivery. I bought most of my things. So if I were to deliver now (which I hope not), I still can rush to the hospital wif a well-packed hospital bag!<br /><br />Then wat abt the missing 20% +/-? Some of the things are still washing & drying.. so not yet pack into the bag directly. The newborn baby clothes are not yet washed. Me waiting till Aug then will wash them. Don intend to wash too early now. I still got 9wks to go. After I deliver, we need to shift the master bed & make way for the baby cot.<br /><br />I ordered my confinement food catering & book my malay massager. I’m glad I managed to book a really cheap 1. The usual rate is ard $40-90 per session, & I got mine at only $34! Hope she is good! I still cant find my prenatal class notes. There are some exercises which I wanted to practice in the notes.. but I couldn’t find it ard my hse. Sad!<br /><br />And names for my daughter?? Nothing yet! Sad! I need <span style="color:#cc0000;"><strong>inspiration</strong></span>!<br /><br />Last sat, my family met up wif 2 other families for a gathering. I was asking the other mummy & was surprise to find out that she still nursing her almost 2yo daughter. Oh my.. I’m very shocked & amazed at how great this mummy is. I couldn’t even pass 1mth. And she can feed up to 2yo. I salute the mum! Since I invest $200+ into a brand new pump, I must be determined & hardworking.. I must BF for at least 2 mths or even 6mths or more.. Shd put my target as 1year minimum. So to ensure I have sufficient BF support, I must get myself more nursing bra! Haha! Coz the more I spend.. the more I will feel the heart pain if I quit halfway. Am I right? Even a fren encourage me.. saying the amt I save from formula milk & the get-back-to-my-pre-pregnancy-size Marie France is more than enough for me to travel to Japan! Right? I shd aim towards the correct direction! Achieve my goal.. & be a more hardworking mum!<br /><br />Oh ya, we have decided to bank my daughter’s cordblood. It gng to costs us $1k, but tis amt can be deducted from her CDA a/c.. so not so bad on my budget. So hopefully we are able to sign up before I deliver. Lol~<br /><br />2 of my colleagues have delivered their babies. 1 is a male colleague’s wife who I suppose give birth to a boy on last sat or sun. The other is a Korean colleague who delivered a girl on sun. Congras to both Andrew & Michelle!<br /><br />And I noticed a lot of my hb’s colleagues are giving birth to baby girls. My tummy is 1, Suan wen’s wife is another 1, Loh’s wife who is prgnt wif no. 2, is also a girl! My friend, Shihui who is prgnt wif no. 2, also a girl. Yeah! It’s gng to be female cows all over!

Meaning 3 months left!Yippee! My tummy looks like I’m 8-9mths preggie.. but I only 7 mths now. But I don care! I still got a whole list of items to get ready for my newborn & confinement.<br /><br />Yesterday, we finally get a new baby pram, capella. It’s having a sale at 20% disc at selected shops. Hb suggested using our Credit cards pts to redeem voucher.. and after working out the figures.. We decide to buy at Metro – Causeway pt. So end up we only paid $50 for a $200+ pram. Shiok! Great savings!<br /><br />I try convince hb to get me a confinement lady (CL).. but I seem unable to get a good n cheap one, neither are there any cheap one available as they are fully book. Sian. Does it means I really got to depend on hb & the food caterer? He’s so stingy when it come to engaging a CL. He keep assuring me that he be on leave to accompany me.. only gng back to work on some days. I really wonder if I will be gtg enough rest. And will he really help me? My previous confinement, I only know he has his mum to serve me. So he glued to the PC or the TV most of the time.. mayb 10% on the baby. Now he nid to spend entire 100% on the baby.. n I doubt he can do that… L Stupid hb!<br /><br />Hospital bag, Not yet packed.. but already prepared a list of items to pack. Got some long pants for the hospital stay.. & still deciding on which tops to wear? Pyjamas or camisoles? Then nid to get the maternity pads.. watch my nursing bras..<br /><br />Baby bed.. Nid to "sun" the bed, wash the bedsheets & the pillows. The baby clothes.. & we haven’t buy the baby’s cupboard yet. Hai..<br /><br />My post-natal massage, not yet book.. although I got a list of contacts & their pricing.<br /><br />Confinement food caterer. Not yet book, even though I decided which caterer to order.<br /><br />Baby Name. Arh! This sucks.. tog of it in the past.. but haven’t discuss wif hb yet.<br /><br />I better wake up n get some of the above things settle! I do have bad contractions sometime of the day. So better pray it come out after 9wks from now.. I wan a matured born baby.. no premature baby please..

Who know suddenly I glance upon the KS/coach spree.. n I have being looking for a KS or coach wallet for a very long time. So after 2 days of looking thru all the sprees, I finally picked a wallet costing S$188! Estimate will arrive on 15th of this mth & has to self-collect at Yishun. Gd thing is that we are allow to check on the quality before paying balance half of the item. So I should wait patiently for my wallet.. hee~<br /> <img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354144226946548562" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj76BIaQFpZNUPne7j8GzafD4dK-ojIVBZNRNLiSivxBrUWYFCAws3dGYNlZ00enJHctKicuCgjUtKL7Xawdb-ZtBIn_5330A_e2Uju-06BYL7XInKNaBLKncaudIqY-0HMnB9aoQRlNKM/s400/IMG_4673.JPG" /><br />Actually I was aiming a new bag.. ard $400-500+. However, a colleague in my office has a similar shape of the bag, n as I don particularly like this colleague, so I rather not to get such a bag. Also the price is quite exp.. I nid to think 2x as I still got lots of items to purchase for my delivery. Perhaps after my baby is born, n when I have spare cash.. den will start my shopping madness again.

Very looking forward to it, coz I think it’s going to be a baby girl. Every time I shop ard online or at shopping ctrs, I always see lots of pretty dresses ard. So I really wish to doll up my princess when she is born. Hopefully she looks as pretty as mummy! Haha~!</p><p>Last thu, I almost collapsed & fainted. I wasn’t sure what had happen. I was reading newspaper while waiting for my company bus to work when my vision turned blur & whole body turned weak. I felt like sitting or squatting down as I doesn’t seem to have the strength to stand straight. Lucky it only lasts a short 2-3min before I recovered. My bus came n after I boarded the bus, everything seems to be okay again. I seriously doubt it’s the hot weather as it was raining in the early mrng while I’m still slping in bed. I had a breakfast & drink before I left my house. It happened so suddenly and I cant really understand why it happen. Only thing I can relate to will be my pregnancy. People from the forum say I may have low blood pressure.. n suggest I kept some sweets in my bag. So if I felt like fainting again, it’s best to eat the sweets. So I got to get some sweets soon. And I must remind myself to inform my gynae on the next visit, mayb need to get some iron pills also.</p><p>My office is pretty down in luck recently. Just last last Monday, when we reported for work in the morning, we realized that our office is flooded with rain water due to a Saturday rain. Part of the conference room ceiling top has collapsed and thus the water has flooded the internal part of the office. 1 of my colleague’s PC broke down because of the flood. There was no supply of electricity at the office for the whole morning & partial afternoon. So those colleagues who cant do much work, are allowed to go off for the day, including me. So me went off for a nice cosy pizza lunch wif my colleagues before heading home to accompany my hb.</p><p>1wk+ past by and on last Friday, company is hit by burglary. Some unknown burglary came in from our side door and damaged a few of the doors, drawers & ransacked our cupboards & drawers. They hacked open 2 big safe box, by sawing the door apart from the safe box.. only to find nothing but papers & cheque books! The petty cash boxes are kept in our drawers, and the cash in the petty cash boxes are gone. I was in charge of ard $300 which was gone. The burglar opened my mini-lunch wallet, but they are stupid enough to open the wrong zip, so my one-and-only $5 note is still safe & sound in my side pocket of the wallet. Only thing lost in the wallet is an opened tissue packet. Haha~ Beside, the burglars also drank my colleague’s fresh milk from the fridge & left it open on the table. Of coz, police was called in to investigate & the milk was used as evident. Funny burglars hor.. purposely left evident behind? Haha~</p><p>Given such 2 bad incidents that happened in my office, I seriously doubt there be any salary increments for 2nd half of this year & my year end bonus will sure be affected. Sob sob~!</p><p>Nvm.. looking forward.. PC show is this wkend, and I’m determined to get a new lappie or netbook. But hb insists on a new compact camera so he can shoot some nice pics with the newborn baby. So hopefully we both get our wishes fulfilled!</p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158220712044953986.post-52109228415592279122009-04-20T20:15:00.000-07:002009-04-20T20:16:23.389-07:00Another check up<p>Ytd went for a gynae check up at 17w 4d. Everything abt baby is gtg on well. Baby gain some weight, while mummy lose some weight. My last visit 4 wks ago measure me n baby at 69.5kg. Ytd my visit still weight us at 69.5kg. This is my first time where I never gain any weight for a mth in my pregnancy. Lucky baby gained weight.. so I assumed I have lost weight. After so many stressful week, filled with daily walking exercise, insufficient meal intake, unpeaceful sleep…</p><p><u>My Daily Walking Exercise<br /></u>I have been spending 30min walking to WL’s childcare in the wkday mrng. After work, if I manage to catch colleague’s car ride, it’s a 10min walk to MIL’s hse plus another 20min walk back to my hse after dinner. I only get some days off when my hb is not working. Even some days, hb is lazy to fetch son. I’m very tired from all these walking. I heard tt the more we walked, the easier is labour, faster is the labour process, or even give birth earlier. I hope they are all true. Coz I’m sick of walking ard… I wan my 4mth maternity leave…</p><p><u>Insufficient meal intake.<br /></u>I do take at least 3 meals a day. On wkdays, I even take 4 meals a day, including tea break. I’m very sick of the food ard my workplace. So even though I order mixed rice with 3 dishes, most of the time, I never left with half of the rice n some dishes uneaten. At nite at MIL’s hse, sometimes her cooking or her dishes is not up to my taste. I end up eating little rice too. Come wkend is also worst. The outside food are okay. But as I need to share my meals wif my son, I either end up eating 2/3, or I run out of appetite after feeding son wif his food. So I guessed I really lose a lot of appetite in this trimester. </p><p><u>Unpeaceful Sleep<br /></u>I have failed to slp thru the night in this so called ‘honeymoon’ trimester. Sometimes son wake up wif nightmare, n I have to coax him back to sleep. If he don wake up, I still sudden wake up and rotate ard in bed at many times of the nite. It’s not that I have full bladder. I really don noe the reason. And my dawn, I always feel so tired tt I wan to slp more. On wkends, I cant slp more dan 8am, as son wake up at 7+, by 8am, he be screaming for his morning milk, or turning the hse upside down. </p><p>Oh.. not to mention I’m having work stress too! Given additional work load without pay rise. It’s not that my office is retrenching people. 1 colleague who has resigned, and has another new colleague who has replaced her position. Yet my boss wan to volunteer to take over some of her work scope. And I was given the assignment to deal with the taken-over work! My basic work is delayed, and another colleague keep pressing on me. I have so many workload suddenly, but I refused to do OT to clear all the jobs. Y shd I do wen I given the same amt of pay. I mean I don see it as any benefits to me for the additional work. It can always be allocated to other staffs beside me. Wat more is my boss who wan volunteer to do additional work… y I kena to clear her volunteered work! </p><p><span style="font-size:130%;">Pissed Pissed Pissed!!!</span></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158220712044953986.post-12972653600994748402009-04-13T19:35:00.000-07:002009-04-13T19:37:00.616-07:00Sick for a week.Sian. I hate to fall sick, esp during my pregnancy. Tis is the 2nd time I fell deeply sick, excluding all those stupid morning sickness. Came down with running nose suddenly last tue afternn. Endure on wed, wen I tog of taking half day off to c doctor. I “ren” until the nite wen I came crawling into a clinic for MC and some useless medicine. Bad cough & non-stop running nose. Yes I got an mc for thu. Medicine… juz mild medicine tt wont heal me. Slpt thru the whole mrng on thu after sending son to sch. Late afternn took lunch n was stuck at the pc till evening. No appetite for the nite. Simple instant noodles n tt it for the so-called rest day.<br /><br />Lucky fri was a PH. And my maternal family welcomed me n son wif wide open arms. Coz my stupid hb is working day shift. Rot at my maternal hse while others baby-sit my son. My mum cooked some tonic soup to reduce my cough (though it din heal, but I appreciate.) I requested for home cooked popian, and I got it for my meals! Wahaha.. I luv to prepare n eat my own-packed popian. Yummy. My dad was sweet aso. He fetched us fr mrt stn, and even accompanied us for a cab ride home. He even paid for the cabby fare. Haha~!<br /><br />Sat, had to vacuum n mop the hse plus look after son by myself alone. Where the heck is the hb? He’s gone photo-shooting. Despite he need slp for his nite shift, he left hse at 7+am, came home only at 2pm! He slept for a few hrs b4 leaving hse at 5+ for his nite shift. I was worry abt his lack of slp, but I totally heck care abt him. He deserved it if he’s not gtg enuff slp. Not tt son was disturbing him, but he chose to go photo-shooting at such a timing! Lucky he had helped to coax son to slp wif him, if not I gng to scream his head off!<br /><br />Sun, send son to his enrichment class at tpy. Tiring day, and perhaps it’s pretty cloud n windy day. Son fell asleep on the way home in train. I had to carry him. It was drizzling when we alighted fr train. I tried to catch a cab but the queue was super long n no cabby came along. So I had to lug son back home all by myself, my back carrying the bag, hand grabbing an umbrella, and another hand carrying son. I was very extreme tired. I tried called hb for help, but he rather slp den to answer my help! Wen I finally reach home, son dozed off for ard 15mins n woke up liao. Pissed off lor.. carry him all the way back to his comfortable bed, n yet he slpt for such a short while. The rest of the day.. I was totally angry wif hb n ignore him totally. Selfish guy who care abt his photos n not me n son!<br /><br />I simply hate his job! Juz becoz his job is working long shifty hrs, means I have to care for the whole family by myself? Hey! I’m preggie and has to juggle wif a hyperactive toddler. It’s tough. My health has never been good when it come to preggie. I require sufficient rest. Now tt I’m so lack of rest, I fall sick so easily. Even now at 4mths+ preggie, I still have vomit at certain time of the day. My work is busy.. reach home I’m also busy. I grumble so many times to Hb, but he simply has no response. All he care abt is his fucking frenz and his photos…Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158220712044953986.post-54440918056473938572009-03-24T00:15:00.000-07:002009-03-24T00:16:30.790-07:00Moody, worry, sad, disappointed..<p>My life seems to be upside down. A lot of things are upsetting me.. and I don really seem any happiness in me since recently.</p><p>My hb has been posted to another unit, and he is back on shift work. Work morning, work nite, off 2 days routine. Well, wen we were dating, he was in this routine before.. till he married and was given office hrs duties. Back then, it was ok coz v were only dating. We only mit up when both of us are available. But now, things btwn us have changed a lot. Besides being married, we are tied down with a toddler and a baby-coming-soon. Life will never be the same again..</p><p>As long as he’s working, I have to send son in the morning to childcare and fetch son from MIL’s hse every day. I’m still having morning sickness. Plus it’s quite tiring for me to walk ard so much wif a growing tummy. I’m wonder what will happen wen I’m into my 8-10mth pregnancy. Will I have the strength to walk that 30min in the mrng and 20min in the evening every wkday?? And not counting the nites that I gng to handle the 2 kids all by myself. What if 1 wakes up after another in the middle of the night? Will I be awake the next day & ready for work? Will I be able to handle 2 kids alone by myself on wkends when hb is working or slping (b4 & after nite shift)??<br />You may be tinking of a helper, maid. But hb is uncomfortable abt the idea of a stranger in the hse. Plus we do plan or prefer a car to a maid. So still out of qns when come to affordable n comfortableness..</p><p>My confinement is still in doubt. 6 more mths to go.. and hb has not spoke to MIL except that WL is gng to stay wif them during my confinement. Who gng to prepare my confinement food? Bathe baby n clean up the hse? Hb say may apply for 1 mth of leave again. But then he juz started a new workplace. So it’s in doubt yet. As for food, may need to cater in. :(</p><p>Went for a checkup with gynae ytd. Gynae advised that baby is growing faster den her expectation. But still no change in EDD. I worried as I don wan an over-sized baby, which may result in C-section. Everything else is gtg on fine. My baby is very low risk for DS. Gynae spotted the gender for the baby but to be confirmed nxt visit as it’s still too early to tell. </p><p>It seems that everything is revolving my new baby. Yes we did plan for the baby and wanted a baby badly. So I should blame the environment for changing too fast to accommodate my new baby. Please allow me to be happy as I wan a happy baby. Or I should slowly learn to accept the fact? </p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158220712044953986.post-7591949689359516312009-03-16T00:02:00.000-07:002009-03-16T00:10:00.153-07:00Sick, SiCk, SICK!Everyone is sick.. coughing everywhere.. my dept can hear cough everywhere...<br /><br />And now my cough is spreading to everyone in my family!

Morning sickness still hanging ard.. relentant to disappear even though i pass the 1st trimester.<br /><br />Now my stupid hb, instead of taking gd care of sicky son and me, went to Sentosa n took bikini gals pic. End up falling sick last nite. I really don wan bother abt him.. he ask for it to be sick! Nobody ask him pay $$ to fall sick! He deserved it!<br /><br />So now my whole family is sick:<br />Daddy sick, mummy sick, son sick, baby sick (tt y caused mummy to have morning sickness)!!!<br /><br />I'm very tired.. very very very tired..Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158220712044953986.post-40888667827408502482009-02-24T00:22:00.000-08:002009-02-24T00:54:57.706-08:00New updates on my BabyHad a rollercoaster ride for the past few days:<br /><br /><u>19/2/09</u><br /><u></u><br />Clear 1 day of leave. So since i'm alone n no1 free to mit up wif me. I slept till 10am and took a train down to Amoy Food Centre to have a bowl of $2 lor mee! Next i walk to Int'l Plaza & Tanjong pagar to digest my food before heading to Amara Hotel for a bowl of Curry Chicken w/Bread! All my fav foods!<br /><br />In fact, i even wanted to eat the Annie Peanut Ice Kachang at Tanjong Pagar & Hum Chim Pang at Maxwell Mkt. But too bad, my legs are tired. So i skipped these and took a bus to Chinatown. The food mkt has been renovated, and i don seem to be able to find some of my fav stores, like the yong tau foo & the vegetarian beehoon. Nevertheless, i still grab a popian & tabao "Er-Gu" peanut & sesame paste for my parents n myself. I went over to my dad's shop to pass them the dessert, chat a while n went hm to sleep.<br /><br /><u>20/2/09</u><br /><u></u><br /><strong>Company Dinner & Dance @ Hilton Hotel</strong><br />It was fun, every1 dress up prettily for the event. I had a temporary tattoo on my left arm, a face pic drawn by a caricaturist. There was this game organised by the MC for the nite, which involve running ard the table. I was banned from playing coz i'm pregnant. And to make things worse, the MC say i must come to the front of the stage. So end up everyone who attend the D&D know i preggie. Everyone congras me wen i came back to office. :( Another highlight of the D&D is i won the 11th prize, which is a $100 taka voucher. Yeah! I can get a new baby pram with the voucher!<br /><br /><u>21/2/09 & 22/2/09</u><br /><u></u><br />These 2 days were bored as i stayed indoor most of the time. Except for the meal break. On sun nite, i vomit out my dinner and had a terrible stomach pain coz by the vomit.<br /><br /><u>23/2/09</u><br /><u></u><br />It's the Day to visit my dearest baby aka Gynae visit! After sending ah boy to school, hb n i went to catch the Pink Panther 2! Follow by a cheap but very full-filling japanese lunch. Only $16 for 2 main course and 3 plates of side dishes! A walk ard AMK Hub before heading down to TMC.<br /><br />Even though our appointment at 2.15, but wen the clinic door is open, we are the 1st patient! hee~ My dearest baby is measured 27mm.. and i am 9wks 3days preggie! But my edd has been pushed back to 25 Sept, 1 day before bro's wedding. If i really give birth on 25, i worry tt my hb n son may not be able to attend his wedding also. Pray tt i give birth early bah! Gynae has been asking if we wan to take the Oscar test, which costs $404 w/o GST for it and detailed scan. Quite exp, but hb still decide to take it. I hope the results r good as i really wan a normal baby.<br /><br />Next we head to Guan Im Temple to pray for a baby girl and the safety delivery and both mum and baby are healthy and safe! Went ard bugis before snacking at KFC. Very angry coz my hb ate up 2/3 of the food. End up i still straving as before. Next we went boat quay as hb has something to do there. Had a drink n a slice of cake at TCC while waiting for hb. Next we took the crowded train back to sbwg. Had MOS burger for dinner and head home.<br /><br /><u>24/2/09</u><br /><br />Back to office.

Waiting for 6 pm... haha~Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158220712044953986.post-54141815544980490982009-02-17T01:43:00.000-08:002009-02-17T01:54:57.046-08:00Getting Weaker day by day...Day by day.. i feeling weaker.. despite my appetite doubles.. but i felt very hot, very sleepy, very breathless...<br /><br />I almost eat or bite on something every hours. Can u believe it? If i don eat, i will burp very loudly and tummy will hurt. Feel like hiding inside the toilet to vomit. Sian.. still got to bear with 2 more weeks..<br /><br />It so obvious to everyone ard me. I don even have to announce. I feeling very sad abt the fatness in me. However, mummies in the forums told me that they are experiencing the same as me. This has sort of comfort in me.. but my newly bought clothes cant be wear.. very disappointed.

Happy Valentine's Day to all!<br /><br />To celebrate the mood for V-day, YES933 radio has been playing lots of love songs today. And i came across this song 小夫妻 by 歐得洋 & 蔡淳佳. Tis song used to be our theme song for playing the photo slides during our wedding in 2004. Time has really flies.. And back then, i actually tog of asking hb to sing this song with me when we 1st march in during our wedding banquet. However, due to insufficient preparation or worry abt my out-of-tune singing. Therefore we din get to sing it on our wedding. I really luv tis song and the lyrics. I have been dreaming of me walking down the wedding hall and singing this song wif hb. Haha.. Currently, it's still one of my fav songs.<br /><br /><br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/7zPeP3t9ijU&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7zPeP3t9ijU&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br />Lyrics:<br />在super market逛了好大一圈<br />想你爱咖哩或是意大利面<br />幸福的食谱再恶补几遍<br />我的优点要你百尝不厌在<br /><br />下班路上租了几支影片<br />有你在沙发就是浪漫剧院<br />辛苦的时候想著你的脸<br />没有蛮牛活力也会出现<br /><br />喔~序妻我的福<br />气这辈子可以让我爱上了<br /><br />你这一路 有时晴 有时雨<br />都没有关系<br />我们的真心超过钻石对爱的定义<br />序妻永不放弃<br />默契是最富有的一种储蓄<br /><br />赌气话 你一句 我一句<br />也觉得甜蜜<br />多庆幸我们望著同样明天<br />牵手在努力<br /><br />你今天玉米浓汤有一点<br />咸你没送钻戒以后补我项链<br />我的通通是你的没有期限<br />存够钱我们逛地球一圈<br /><br />喔~序妻我的福气<br />这辈子可以让我爱上了你<br /><br />这一路 有时晴 有时雨<br />都没有关系<br />我们的真心超过钻石对爱的定义<br />序妻永不放弃<br />默契是最富有的一种储蓄<br /><br />赌气话 你一句 我一句<br />也觉得甜蜜<br />多庆幸我们望著同样明天<br />牵手在努力<br /><br />喔~序妻我的福气<br />这辈子可以让我爱上了你<br /><br />这一路 有时晴 有时雨<br />都没有关系<br />我们的真心超过钻石对爱的定义<br />序妻永不放弃<br />默契是最富有的一种储蓄<br /><br />赌气话 你一句 我一句<br />也觉得甜蜜<br />多庆幸我们望著同样明天<br />牵手在努力<br /><br />我愿意 这一生 这一世<br />呵护著你<br />一直到 你当爷爷 你当奶奶<br />还是老夫老妻Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158220712044953986.post-67973673773910280532009-02-09T17:35:00.000-08:002009-02-09T17:37:22.573-08:00A common qns by both outsiders and myself!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrGuaPZ7sPtkh1LFsYDHlb62IXEWeWFbIWBfBUVhL_IQeAfPWYGKqN5YtJzt2_PZD3shWgt3sBt8y1yiU50nHy51Cux5M8kv-GueiQq-mTxAPO8PQ92Nkcf-gfhdkqySAC7bCJlPpfCUg/s1600-h/cartoon7.png"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300976406375398786" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 414px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 450px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrGuaPZ7sPtkh1LFsYDHlb62IXEWeWFbIWBfBUVhL_IQeAfPWYGKqN5YtJzt2_PZD3shWgt3sBt8y1yiU50nHy51Cux5M8kv-GueiQq-mTxAPO8PQ92Nkcf-gfhdkqySAC7bCJlPpfCUg/s400/cartoon7.png" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Haha.. so am I on the Left or Right?</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158220712044953986.post-47457013828059173202009-02-08T23:06:00.000-08:002009-02-08T23:20:07.165-08:00CravingsSudden had a cravings for many items.. some items have been craving since quite long ago.<br /><br />1) Satay & Chix Wings.. but fulfilled my cravings ytd..

Did u hear anything?<br /><br />CNY 2009 is fast approaching.. in fact it is only less than 2 wks away... And i'm so unprepared for tis CNY! I'm wondering y no mood at all? Lots of stuffs are undone, nothing much is fully prepared at all!<br /><br />1) <strong>Spring Cleaning</strong><br />I have wanted to spring clean since Dec last yr.... but till today, my whole hse has not finish cleaning. Hb took leave to clear some of the cupboards, so tt our little rascal is not ard to mess out the things. During my cleanings at the wkends, little rascal will peep into my cleaning zone n played n messed up my stuffs...no matter how i chase him away, he will still come running back to me!<br /><br />2) <strong>New Year Goodies</strong><br />Biscuits, sweets, drinks, oranges... None have been bought yet! Are we power? It's seem like v have no intentions to celebrate CNY at all.. Now waiting for hb to decide wen to pop over to jb for biscuits shopping... Wen hb can "trick"his friend for a ride to tpt the drinks & oranges back to our hse fr supermkt...<br /><br />Oh.. no forgetting my bak kwa! I still waiting for my cousin to return fr his overseas trip n go queue at the famous Lim Gwee Yuan Bak Kwa for me! Haha~ My kaisu bro wen queue 1wk+ ago.. n i worry it may turn bad b4 CNY, so i din order fr my bro. Now has to beg on any1 who go queue to get 1/2 kg for me... Anyway, i have been tricking ple ard me to go queue, including my hb's collegue, Yi An. Haha~<br /><br />3) <strong>CNY Gifts</strong><br />Hb has tricked a friend to help tpt a BIG n NICE CNY hamper to my parents' hse. Erm.. i havent seen the hamper, but my mum say it's very big n nice.. Look like my mum like it a lot.. N it's different from the yearly canned abalone or shark fin soup i sent them. Tis yr, my MIL don wan bak kwa, n they requested for canned abalone. But we havent go buy the abalone yet.. hai~<br /><br />4) <strong>CNY Clothes</strong><br />Hb's clothes are partially purchased. He said he lack of ties, shoes.. as he gng for formal wear tis yr. No more casual shirt for him.<br />As for me, i have continously bought lots of clothes.. but tink i havent fully washed all the clothes nor iron them... hopefully i sort them out by tis wkends.<br />As for my dear son, i'm not sure if i have bought enuff clothes for him. haha.. even if there are sufficient, i tink i havent wash them all yet..<br /><br />I'm tink i'm gtg lazier! Wahaha~<br /><br />5) <strong>CNY Angbaos</strong><br />I havent change the angbao money, nor collect enuff angbao packets. I noe Citibank Angbaos design sucks (juz 2 gold fish only).. OCBC is nice (a colourful plant + a 4-character idiom).. havent seen DBS yet. Hb say will go change money today.. so c where he go change..<br /><br />6) <strong>CNY Tpt</strong><br />Yes! We finally got a tpt for CNY wk. Hb rented a car at ard $900 for a 8-day period. So v get to drive ard to anywhere, anytime. Cheers! The amt burn a huge hole in our pocket.. but i hope it's well spend.<br /><br />Is there anything i have left out???<br /><br />Hai~ Stressful pre-CNY period...Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158220712044953986.post-48149369337338795702009-01-12T00:29:00.000-08:002009-01-12T00:37:27.010-08:00I sensed something...Sometimes i think i have 6th sense!<br />OR<br />Is my 6th sense accurate?<br /><br />I starting to suspect something.. but yet i cant confirm my suspicions.

Table tennis will never be the same again.<br /><br />Finally, proving that Singaporeans are an eternally practical (read: money-minded) bunch, interest in the ups and downs - mostly downs - of <a href="http://sg.search.yahoo.com/search?fr=top-find08&sado=1&cs=bz&p=SGX">SGX</a> shares was high, as was bargain-hunting for $2 <a href="http://sg.search.yahoo.com/search?fr=top-find08&sado=1&cs=bz&p=COE">COE</a>s, stretching our dollars with a <a href="http://sg.search.yahoo.com/search?fr=top-find08&sado=1&cs=bz&p=currency+converter">currency converter</a>, and - only in car-mad Singapore - visiting a website to <a href="http://sg.search.yahoo.com/search?fr=top-find08&sado=1&cs=bz&p=Petrol+Watch">monitor petrol pump prices</a>.<br /><br />For those who will like to read more, click <a href="http://advision.webevents.yahoo.com/sea/search/sgtopsearches2008.html">here</a>.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1158220712044953986.post-52528184649904399152008-12-11T17:17:00.000-08:002008-12-11T18:05:23.902-08:00Ugly Communters on MRT ridesI'm always feel proud to be a Singaporean as Singapore is politically stable & a safe country. But 1 thing i don dare to acknowledge of my citizen status when it come to manners. I deeply ashamed at how come Singaporeans, or those living in Singapore who never wish to learn their manners from other developed countries. Let me just quote 1 simple incident: MRT Rides. I can list countless of bad manners & selfishness just relating to mrt rides only.<br /><br />1) Big Ticket Counter (i don really noe the actual name of that item)<br />As there was an increasing need for wheel-chairs or baby prams or bigger objects to pass thru those ticketing counter, MRT stations have inserted a bigger pass-thru ticket counter. Even though the counter has specifically stated to "GIVE WAY TO WHEEL CHAIRS & PRAMS". Still many communters ignore the msg, and even though they are healthy & skinny, they will still walk thru the big counter. They wont even give way to those who are waiting at the other side who need to use the counter to come out/in, even though they have wheelchairs or prams. So ple like me who has a prams, has to wait patiently & LONG for these LAZY ple to pass thru before I get to use the counter to exit! Y i say they are lazy, coz they can walk a few steps more to the normal counters, but they wan snatch the rights wif me... Worst are some who actually cut queue. I was waiting for these LAZY ple to pass thru, when more ple come along n follow closely behind these LAZY ple, doubling my waiting time....<br /><br />2) Escalator<br />I notice a lot of developed countries like Japan, their ple are very discipline. They are able to follow the rules of keeping left on escalator. However, despite Singapore escalator has signs that indicate "Keep Left", no1 wan to follow. I find that this rule is so simple to follow, but i simply don understand how come singaporeans doesnt wan to follow. It's not like it gng to cost u $$ just to keep to the left?? It's really help u a lot, esp in times of need n u r in a hurry, u can use the right side to over-take, thereby saving u lot of time n trouble fr saying "Excuse Me"!<br /><br />3) Boarding & Alighting from Trains<br />U notice the yellow signs on the floor? U heard of the PA systems annoucing & in the past education, "GIVE WAY TO ALIGHTING PASSANGERS"! So who has ever listen to this announcements? Nobody wan to line up and board the train in an orderly manners, after passengers have alighted! Come on, let's look at Taiwan & our neighbouring country: Malaysia. Their people all queue up and board in an orderly manners. But i seemly don understand y singaporean cant? If i'm alighting, sometimes i will push n knock hard at those who forced their way in when I'm havent even alight. And if i boarding, i will block those behind me fr boarding until the passengers have alighted. Nobody wan to educate them, den i use my body language to teach them!<br /><br />4) Priority Seats<br />In the past, i tink there are only a few priority seats in a cabin. But now, all the corner seats are fixed with Priority Seats. So how "Priority" are these seats? For those bullies who will never give up their seats to sit? Then in the 1st place, don even give them a chance to sit. I tink in Japan, priority seats are only occupied by the old, handicapped, pregnant & with small children. If there are none of these ard, nobody will even wan to sit on these seats even though the train is crowded & all normal seats are occupied. This shd be the case for our train. Don allow any1 to sit, only those with special needs then can sit. Singapore is a Fine Country. So let's fine those who sit there! And how abt issuing those in need a special mrt pass, so those with pass are allow to sit. Those w/o pass & sit there, will be fined immediately.<br /><br />Next, even though the priority seats are occupied, why cant the other commuters give up seats? Juz take these mrng for eg, i saw a pregnant lady who is ard 7mth preggie. Nobody offer her a seat even though she stood in front of 5 people. 2 of them wear teen girls, 1 working young man, 1 man with a bit of white hair, n 1 auntie at the priority seat. I'm disappointed at the teen girls & young man. Why cant every1 put others in their shoes? How do u feel wen u grow up n preggie 1 day, or ur wife is heavily prgnt, n no1 refused to give up seats for u/her? Or when u grow old, with weak legs, no1 give up seats for u?<br /><br />5) Eat & Drink or Loud Music<br />This is a public place. This is not a hawker centre, restuarant, kitchen, canteen or pantry, so y do communters eat & drink on a train? Too bored & hungry? Eat in the correct places 1st b4 u board the train! A lot of these rules-breaking are caused by students. So it's time school provide these educations beside sex educations!<br /><br />Loud music: This is a train when ple use as a transport. It is not a discotheque or ballroom or karaoke room. Why play loud music n blast other communters' ears. Have some self-discpline n keep the volume to yourself. If u only like loud music, den stay at home n listen till enough, then u step out of the hse.<br /><br />I guess there are more problems that can be found on the mrt rides, but above are those that i cant stand the most.<br /><br />It really shows the ugly side of Singapore. When can the mrt spend more money to educate the public. I'm sure if we have a better behaviour in the mrt, it will attracts more tourists and also show the world that not only we are a stable country, we are also very polite & well-manner!<br /><br />Please.. someone do something...Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
