My new year resolutions will be DISCLOSE here wen i got time to type. haha.. meanwhile:

MERRY XMAS & A HAPPY NEW YEAR! WOHOHOHOHO~~~

JE @ 15mths old

Cheers~!
Time really flies~ or zoom pass w/o we realising it ourselves...

JE juz turn 15 mths old! She weights a healthy 9.1kg on her 15mths & 1 day old. She had her MMR Jab + the 3rd pneunomoccal jab together. Her 1st jab, she was already unhappy abt the pain. Then nxt came 2nd jab & she let loose & scream out loud. She cried for ard 10min.. tears flowing out like tap-water. haha.. So the next few days was terrible for both her mummy (that's me!) & her ah-ma. She couldn't slp well in the day & night. Maybe she got frightened by the jabs. Poor gal.. & poor US!

The nurse asks me 3 standard qns on JE:
1) Can she walk by herself?
Unfortunately, the nurse tried and attract JE to walk to her, the stubbon JE refused. So this answer was "NO".
2) Can she clap & wave hands?
Yes, this has no problem.
3) Can she say simple words like Mama & Papa?
I honestly told the nurse that JE is unable to call Mama & Papa yet. All she can say is Hi-Five & Hello!

Stange gal i got right? She cant pronouce single word, but can speak 2-tone words.. "hi-five" & "har-low". Wonder wen she will finally call mama? & walk firmly to me?

How Fast is Fast? How Slow is Slow?

It's all abt my gal, my notti little lazy gal! Dunno if she is lazy or she is notti. She simply refused to WALK!! She's 14mths+ now! My friend's gal can walk at 1yo! Both gals have a elder brother to motivate them to walk. But why my gal still don feel motivated at all?

Old folk has this belief: "The later one learns to walk, means he/she will have a better life when they grow up." How true is this belief? If it's true, i don't mind that my gal have a better life in future. But can it be used to coax the parents only? A sort of excuse to cool the impatient parents that it's ok for their babies to learn walking slower than their peers?

Last sunday, we went out for our dinner. Hb & I held one hand of JE each, & we walked from our house door to the lift. Can see that JE is excited abt walking! WL wanted to hold JE's hand too, but she refused to hold WL's hand. haha~ The very next day, I saw a big improvement from gal. Wen i went to pick the kids up from my inlaw hse, JE crawled towards me, suddenly stand up & walked few steps to reach me. Ahhh~! At least she dare to challenge that few steps... Mil also claimed JE walked a few steps in the mrng too. Hope that she will walk even more steps as days go by... Will hope that she can walk & maybe run abt during our chalet in Jan!

Last wk, i had breakfast at a coffeeshop nearby WL's school. I bumped into another parent of WL's classmates. I asked if her daughter, Gigi learned how to write alphabets. I was complaining how slow is my boy. I'm comparing him to a friend's daughter who can write her name, although not with neat strokes, but visibly can read the alphabets. The mum was saying that as they are still young, their bones r not yet properly developed. So if they learned to write ABC, it may affects their finger bones formation. So it is advised to wait till they start nursery next year, when teachers teach writing, that we can begin to coach them. No hurry..

Suddenly I felt so kiasu. Feel like looking for enrichment classes for WL... Am i stressing him? or Am i stressing myself? Shd i let nature take its course.. let them learn slowly...

Weddings

Every year, both hb & I have countless weddings to attend. Either his friend or mine or our relatives... To make sure that we wont 'underpaid' the angbao, I always check the market rate of the venue & adjust accordingly, depending on the relationship wif the bride or groom. This coming sat i've got a church weddings only! First time giving a church wedding angbao! So i need the rates! My search brought me to this little article which i hope is worth sharing wif others:

Lastly,

Happy Marriage to Adrian & Jane! See ya this sat!

Sad Case

I guessed every singaporean will have heard or read abt darren ng's murder case at the Downtown east by now. I will not elaborate on the case as detailed info can be flashed all over yahoo, channelnewasia, etc.

Firstly, i wish darren RIP.

The case was discussed as an incident of staring issue. I heard was staring at tattoos (although no media has confirm this part yet). I don understand why the hackers mean so much abt staring? Wen i'm in deep though, i stare blankly too! Wen i c some nice interesting things, like ple clothings, tattoo, i will aso take a 2nd look, or even stare at it to admire the beauty. So does it consider as my staring being rude? So i deserved to be hacked too?

The attackers really never think thru seriously b4 acting. Or maybe the attackers have been thru a rough day, they juz wan find someone to lose their anger.. but WHY use CHOPPERS! Alamak! Y muz involve blood! Don't they know that attacking people wif a weapon will increase the penalty- CANING! They tink that govt caning is painless ar? Then now they wan attack wif a weapon and the idea of killing the victim? Ya, they did kill the poor victim, but have they though abt their own lives? Will they survive for long even if the victim is dead? Come on, this is singapore! It's death penalty for murdering! It's 10 ple lives + 1 darren = 11 innocent lives juz becoz of 1 stupid staring issue. Imagine how many ple are affected by this case: Parents, siblings, close friends, relatives of these 11 YOUNG people that are gng to die (death penalty) or has already been dead.

I'm myself is a parent of 2. I don't wish my kids to pass away via such stupid way. So no matter wat, i will try my best to educate them as much as i can. To prevent them from attacking ple based on STARING, or to attack ple wif weapons! As for being a possible victim, i can only pray for their safety, pray that they don mit such unreasonable attackers in their lives.

Lastly, to all gangster or everyone, if u don like ple to stare at u, then u stare back at them la. Stare till both yr eyes pop out lor.

Save? Save? Save?

I don recall when the last time I actually start savings! OMG!

Yes, I have zero savings a/c. Isn't that bad? I have huge chunck of credit cards debts.. mostly are instalments. Do I keep track of my savings? - Yes, I do! But it's always show a DEFICIT in the Total box. Sometimes i wonder why am I an accountant, when I cant even manage my own finance? I got zero emergency funds! Zero travelling funds! I earn & spend all my pay check! Horrible hor~ Haha~

So are u like me too??? I happen to glance upon a article fr yahoo. So here i'm sharing wif you. Hope it's work for me & you!

The following tips are based on financial practices and methods that have worked and have helped many individuals stay afloat and comfortable even in these uncertain times.

1. Save for purchases. Saving is a habit a lot of people are learning to forget because of the convenience of credit cards. For instance, it's easy to get tempted by offers such as this one by Chase Visa cards, that will give you cash back upon your first sign up. Sounds great, but only in the hands of those people who are confident about paying off their cards.
Because of the consumer-oriented nature of businesses nowadays, people are enticed and conditioned to buy, buy, buy, even at a young age. So instead of learning how to save for those things we want, we choose instead to just swipe that card. Whatever happened to setting aside the money until we have enough to make the purchases we'd like to make?

2. Save for the future. If there's anything that you can do for your financial health -- which you should keep doing regardless of how boring or challenging it can become -- it would be to save and invest for the long term. There are a lot of goals to save for and by getting into the habit of saving, you'll eventually find your money growing on its own accord.
Avoid using credit indiscriminately and work to build a savings fund that's dedicated for emergencies, and another one that's dedicated to your future goals. Build your emergency fund and have a backup plan to keep you from getting an overdraft or from accumulating credit card debt that could arise from coping with a calamity or an unexpected event. Grow your other savings fund into an investment portfolio that you keep in mutual fund companies or well regarded investment brokers (some, like ETrade, have both a banking and investment arm you can peruse).
Long-term goals include saving for your retirement. If you have kids, you should save for their college education as well. Don't get tired of saving! It could be your financial salvation!

3. Live within your means. True, it can be a downright test of your will each time you walk by your favorite gadgets, clothes or insert-your-shopping-addiction-here store. In your mind, you may be thinking about how easy it would be to make a purchase by simply using the plastic. So you start to reach for your card. But wait! You just finished paying off your credit card debt! Must you kill yourself financially once again?
Living within our means is a habit that many of us have lost. However, we have to accept the fact that we have to practice a bit more will power and live within our budget. If it's not in the budget this month, make it part of the budget next month. If need be, sacrifice a bit of your food allowance, or cut the budget allotment in other areas in order to afford the one thing you want. Maybe you don't really watch cable TV. Maybe it's time to have it cut off? How about switching to a lower plan? How about cutting down on going to the theater? There may be more affordable alternatives such as Blockbuster or Netflix services that you may want to use instead.

Time for me to ditch my credit cards aside.. & maybe reduce instalment temptations. Time for me to stop visiting blogshops & BP threads.

My target savings:
1) Rainy funds that's equivalent to 3mths of my salary! +
2) 1week of Japan holidays +
3) Shopping trips to BKK or Taipei
Est: $15k

Yes! I WILL ACHIEVE IT! I CAN & I MUST!!! (Hopefully!)

Family Car

Yeah! My family finally owns a car! Or rather.. my maternal family owns a car now! It's a 2nd hand car, & it cant fit the whole family of 8adults + 3 kids. And so far, i havent took a car ride in it. Anyway, the car wasnt purchase for me to use at all. More for my 2 brothers to fight for the usage. Wahaha~

One of the day will borrow & use it for my practise. 9 yrs of license.. nvr drove at expressway b4. Nvr drive beyond yck & sbwg area. Wat a lousy driver am I! haha~

Nephew Javier

I forget to post earlier.. my elder bro welcome a new family member 2wks ago. His name is JAVIER! Lovely boy who refused to come out.. so poor mummy jo had a super long labour.. tink 18hrs!

To welcome my 1st nephew, i have decided to try making another diaper cake. Hopefully with better 'ingredients'. So i ordered online for a customised Tee & Towel for him. Really hope both the parents & the baby like it! Although i wonder the baby will noe abt it till he's 10yo?? By then he cant fit into the tee nor the towel is ard for him to use. lol~

Isnt the customised Tee & towel lovely? haha~

Be patient for my diaper cake!

"Baking" in process!

Song for my Gal

Mommy have a~
PICKY gal,
STICKY gal,
LAZY gal.
Mommy have a NOTTI gal who is turning one!
(sing to the rhyme of Mary had a little lamb!)

Picky- She choose ple to carry her. Eg: She wan my mum instead of dad.
Sticky- She's a good representative of Elephant Super Glue. Stick to me whole day long.. the min her eyes open.. i cant get out her sight or she cries the hse down.
Lazy- She's lazy pig, refused to learn to walk even though she can stand, crawl & climb!
Above 3 qualities made her a NOTTI gal!

Time for a Update!

A check back to my last entry.. it was in AUGUST! Wow.. wat a lazy bum am i! haha~

Anyway, nothing much happen also.. Jia En still sticky as super glue.

Weilun went for a Genting trip wif his dad.. dumping mother & sister in singapore!

And my sticky Jia En is turning 1 this sunday. Will be having a small party for my family & hb's 'lovers/gfs/mistresses'... haha~

Shape Run 2010 Results are finally OUT!

I didn't really check the shape website daily but i knew 1 week after the run, the results were still not published online. They pretty slow and badly coordinated. As usual, the race pack collection after the event was terrible. Nobody bother to queue up neatly as the organiser never has sufficient staffs to guide the queue. So everyone squeeze to get the bag after the sweaty n tiring run. Other than that, the event was fairly well-organised. The race track was properly labelled with distance covered. Sufficient water supply.

And now.. to my performance for that day:
Gun time: 00:42:09
Chip Time: 00:39:38

I remembered my 2yrs ago record was also ard this timing. Unable to confirm as i have no exact timing record on hand. My buddy & friend just ran right behind me only, with 1-2min difference. So they did a good run! My sis did well too, she completed the race in less dan 50min!

After the race, i actually aches for 3days. Quite surprised as i nvr ached at all for my last round of 5km run. Wonder is it becoz i havent exercise for MONTHS! lol~

Diaper Cake

My fren, LeeLian, has a baby shower end of last mth. Out of the sudden, i felt like trying to make a diaper cake for her son. Went to search blogs, youtube & I managed to do a simple diaper cake for her son! As it was quite rush, i din really buy a lot of decor for the cake.

Front View

After wrapped up (although i did an ugly job at the wrapping part)

I'm planning to make another 1 soon for my nephew who is gng to b born in ard 1mth time! Haha.. hope it b a more grand & a more successful diaper cake.

Jay Chou Concert- 23 July 2010

My 2nd time attending a singing artist concert. I rmbred my 1st time was dedicated to Aqua (who sang barbie girl "i'm a barbie girl, in a plastic world.."). This time was the 1st time i actually paid to attend such a concert, and it costs me ard $140 (although my hb is the 1 who offers to treat me in the end). I rmbr asking hb if he interested to watch those concerts, after they keep advertising on TVs, singers like S.H.E., May Day, etc.. so hb say he prefer Jay Chou. So wen news of Jay chou concert tix is available for sale, i asked him again. He say ok, we picked the middle pricing coz the top few will be so EXPENSIVE. BUT who knew that so many crazy Jay's fans ard who HOG the sistic booking system on the day & time it available for sale. Alamak.. i got so much problem buying the tix online. Luckily i knew a friend who was working in the organiser company, and she managed to secure 3tix for me for Jay's concert. Although no discount, but i was issued good seats & guaranteed tix for my choice. So happily, we join the rest of the Jay's crazied fans to attend 1 of his 3 days concerts in Sgp.

23July 2010, hb & i took the day off, coz WL's sch happen to close for the day too. So looked after the 2kids in the day time, before sending off JE to my MIL's hse, WL to my parents' hse. We arrived at the stadium mrt early as we din noe how close is the indoor stadium to the mrt. But it was really very CLOSE. Step out of the mrt, u spot indoor stadium across the road. The mrt was crowded.. but the entrance to the indoor stadium was even more crowded. Jay's merchansides were sold everywhere & the queues were so long. So i din even bother to queue or browse for any. The tix stated no camera, no food & drinks. But ple still bring in camera! Food & drinks were sold at the entrance, which can be brought into the stadium!

Jay's concert starts at 8.30pm. The show was awesome! Lot of laser effect, computerised effect, nice dancing, nice guests singers, lovely clothings... and JAY look so cool~! I like it when he say singapore women are pretty.. & i crazily screamed back at him! lol~ And the amazing part is, my hb almost fall asleep at the beginning of the concert! Idiot hb! Everyone so excited at Jay, & yet he can doze off.. Anyway, i screamed a lot, my ears almost went deaf wif the screaming & surround sound. It was marvelous... i hope to be able to attend his future concert again, if any.

Jay is a great performer, singer, artist.. and how i wish my weilun can grow up to be like him. Den i can get to attend every concert of Weilun when he holds his worldwide concert tour. "Okay! Time for me to WAKE up! haha~" I shd save more money & send him off to attend his music, speech & drama classes.

Up & Down of JE

JE is reaching 10mths soon, which means in 2 mths time, she's hitting 1 yr old.
I always felt tt wen baby pass the 9th mth, when they can understand us, when they crawl n learn to walk, it will b easier for us, the parents. But this doesn't seem to b applicable to JE. Her teeth is growing at a very slow speed. She still have 1 teeth n the gum is still covering another teeth of her since 2 mths ago. Babies at 6mths old already got 2teeth while JE @ 9mths only got 1teeth. The teething is causing her a lot of discomfort. There's nothing I can do except to apply teething gel tt hopefully reduce her discomfort.
Next, she seems to catch common flu n cough quite easily as compared to WL. So tis explains my sleepless nites for every mth since she was 2 mth old. :(
Even though JE is big enuff, she still dislike anybody who is not her mum or ah-ma. She's picky & stubborn like a cow! Even if v use food or toys to coax her, she still reject being carry by others. Tt make me very tired n difficult wen looking after her.
The only 1 thing that I will praise her is she's gng to b a early walker. She pushs herself to stand, to walk n also she tries standing wifout support for few sec. Bravo. Hopefully she can walk b4 her 1st yr birthday, den she beat her bro in the walking catergory. Jia You!

We are Back from HONG KONG!!!

Cheers! We safely back from HK. Haha~ V survived the acid throwing, the HFMD.. & most imptly, i survived the "Elephant Brand-superglue" WeiLun! Yeah.. he super sticky to me. Wan me carry him when he off the pram, wan me push his pram & nobody else. A super, extreme MUMMY BOY!!

It's our 1st time visiting HK... & my dad's 1st time too. My dad @ age 64, my age @ 28 & my son @ 3. So fortunate hor? My son's dad havent even been to HK before. He been nagging at me that i got my holidays, while he got nothing. Who call him don wan to bring me to HK?

We conquered a lot of sightseeings ard HK, took a day trip to shenzhen & macau. But we din conquered the shopping of HK! And i din eat enuff of HK food. Coz my son has been sharing meals wif me. So i have to order food tt he like to eat. So disappointing rite! Even after share wif him, i felt so full tt i din even snack much. Hai~

Disneyland was ok. My 2nd visit to disneyland. There arent much exciting rides for adults only. More kiddies rides & performance shows. My cousin, MH was so busy tracking the shows time.. that make us rush fr one part to another part of the disneyland to catch the shows on time. There was a Lion King show dressed up by human in animal costumes. WL was so afraid that he rather close his eyes to slp! Wen we queued the 3rd time for the Mickey Mouse show, the earlier 2 queues were full before we can enter the threatre. We waited for quite long till WL fell asleep. And worst still, it's his afternn nap. No matter how i woke him up, he refused to open his eyes. Wen the show ends 30min later, he finally woke up.. to c ple departing from the threatre. It's such a nice show that i'm sure WL will like it. It's really a pity that he missed it lor. His fav mickey mouse & characters came alive before him.. and yet he rather dream of them in his tv set! I guessed the nxt time i bring him to disneyland again, will b 2 yrs later bah. When JE is big enuff... den consider bring both to disneyland again.

WL is happy to took 2 aeroplane rides, boat rides (macau), cable car rides (he's terrified wen the cable car is in the air) & lots of train rides!

Next overseas trip.. guess genting bah. It's cheaper, shorter period.. n hopefully his sis, JE can join in.

Sick Sick Sick Sick

Hai.. May/Jun is the period of sickness, sickness, sickness!

Today juz sent WL back to sch. His school teacher called & ask his whereabout. I happen to fall terribly ill ytd, so since i need to queue & c doctor. Y not i bring WL to let doc certify he's free from HFMD. Yup, he's clear totally, tt y he's now in school. I got a shock at the school notice board. 14cases of HFMD!!! Spreading from WL's playgroup to K1 to Nursery now. A few cases recorded only this week. School had engaged external cleaning services to SPRING CLEAN the whole school ytd. Hopefully no more insect bugs, no more HFMD bugs...

Last Last sat, i was suppose to go for my passion run in the evening. But JE couldn't slp well tt sat mrng. So after she felt deep asleep, my tummy had a bad cramp.. so bad tt i vomit water n medicine. It hurts so much until i couldnt close my eyes to slp since 4/5am. I endure until 8.30, den head to the nearest clinic. Doc diagnosed me as stomach flu. He say if my hurting doesnt stop by noon, i have to check myself into A&E at any hospital for more detailed scan. Lucky it heal slightly after taking the medicine. I was so weak tt i felt asleep for the whole day. I couldn't have the energy to get out of bed. I forced hb to sent JE to my inlaw, so i can rest well. Becoz i was totally too weak, i skipped my 10km passion run. Arh.. very sad.. my 1st 10km for this yr is gone.. my medal & cert r gone... my goodie bag is also gone.. :( Got to wait for the shape run 5km in jul.

Next, last wk, JE had difficulties in slping at nite. When she can slp better, her body start popping out small red dots. It was diagnose last sat as chix pox. Arh.. poor gal caught chix pox at such a small age. The pox r drying up & it doesnt seem to be itchy to her. Strange.. Make me wonder if they r really chix pox or fake. Anyway, even if it is mild, i hope she be immune to chix pox in future.

After my stomach flu last last wk, i down wif fever, sore throat, cough & flu ytd. Now only hope i recover fast & don spread to my kids. I wan fully enjoy my holidays nxt wk.

Counting down.. 8days to go!

HFMD

3 of his classmates were down with HFMD, including WL's best buddy: Chan Kai Xian. Monday morning, at the routine checkup b4 allowing into class, Teacher YingJie spotted a few mouth uclers on WL. Another teacher help to verify & WL was barred from school. I took him to visit the doctor & certify he's down wif HFMD. Doc say HFMD can begin with mild mouth uclers. So WL got 1 wk of MC! Lucky i got 2 sets of parents ard, so i sent WL to my parents' shop/hse, while JE remains at my inlaw hse. Separate the 2 kids so they wont spread amongst themselves. Hai~ Hope WL recovers fast enuff, as he's gng to HK in another 2wks+.

Mon morning, he was telling Teacher YingJie he flying to HK to see Mickey Mouse! His classmates, Rachel is gng Taiwan while Lucas is gng on a wkend holidays. Arh.. these kids are so fortunate to get to travel at such a young age.

Let's hope all the sick classmates recover well enough to go back to class & play with each other again!

Happenings Update in May

Mother Day
WL make a cardboard mother's day card for me & a cake muffin for me. When i reached home, he gave me a tight hug & said happy mother day! I so love him!!! Then he told me abt the card & the cake. However, the next day, i woke up slightly later than him. And i caught him eating the mother cake he made for me! Wen i ask if the cake was meant for me, he cheekily say he make another 1 'tomorrow'. Well.. the tomorrow never come. Sadly, i din get to taste the mother day cake. :(
Anyway, the best gift i had is the tight hug i received from him- made me tears on the spot. He's so sweet!

Passion Run 22/5/10
I woke up that morning with a very bad tummy ache that hurts for hours till i stepped into a clinic. After the medicine, i slept like a pig for the whole day. Body was too weak to even walk, so couldnt join the run. So i miss my medal, my goodie bag, my cert, my photo! Sad! Sad!

Cold Storage Kids Run 23/5/10
Although i din't fully recover by sunday, i try not to miss the event as my 2kids have signed up. JE start her race 1st. It was very sunny & poor girl was crying at the race track. So i have to entertain her, carry her, coax her to complete the race. WL did a better job this round. He able to run the distance with his dad accompanying him. He's proud to get a medal! So we have 2 little "marathon" runners in the future... :)

McD Big Breakfast

Wednesday is my Off-day & I sent WL to sch as usual in the mrng. Then i brought JE to McDonald for my breakfast. Mil wanted some time off to pray in the mrng. I was greeted wif SHOCK & good service at the Mcd at Sun Plaza.

Good Service: A staff holds the door for me when i enter Mcd with my baby stroller. I get to sit after i order my food, as a staff deliver the food to my table. Excellent service!

SHOCK: Thanks to my Gal! She took my straw to play with. So i went to take another straw for my drink. When i came back to my table, my food r GONE! My plate is empty! Why? Coz my gal grab my food plate & topple onto the floor. Aarrrhh! I only took 1 small bite.. my bread, scrumbled eggs & sausage are on the floor. I was angry wif her & myself. Y i'm so careless & place my food within her reach! I try & hint to the Mcd staffs to clear my mess.. & they r nice enuff to offer me another plate of Big breakfast. If not, i would have wasted $4.. & have only a hash brown for breakfast liao. After my new plate of breakfast was served, i sat opp JE, far away from her reach. She muz be thinking tt since she got no teeth & cant eat tt big breakfast, mummy should not eat too! She was staring hard at me when i ate my hash brown. lol~

Wen i done wif my meal, i purposely stood up & pretend to leave w/o JE. Den her face turns & wan to cry.. lol~ She so cute at tt moment!

My mischevious gal...

JE is 7mths old!!!

My gal is growing up day by day. Turning into a PRETTY girl! She's turning 7mths today. Her improvements:

She can SIT by herself now! So which means when we eat out, all she need is a baby chair & i can enjoy my meals in peace. Lol~
JE & WL posing for the camera! Cheese!

JE should be learning how to crawl next.. follow by standing & walking.. She now no longer fear strangers as much as before.. But her sleep is still not stable.. She can cry & refuse the sarong suddenly. Wonder when she will stop her cry, so she can slp back to the baby cot...

Random Pics in Apr

I wanted to upload pics directly fr my iphone. But i realised the new apps don allow uploading of pics. I try download my sis apps, but it not longer available. So sad.. I got to download pic to pc, den upload via PC. So mafan!

Anyway, enjoy the pics below...

Hungry JE wanted to taste chocolate. She came forward to bite our chocolate bar while we were eating. This isn't the 1st time. She will pull our plates & reach out for our food if we carry her while eating...

WL's fave arcade game: BOWLING

He's always excited when his dad promised him bowling game. If he came across a bowling game, he will insist on a game before he satisfied to leave the arcade centre.

JE @ Walker

MIL let JE try out on walker a few wks ago. She currently know how to move backwards & starting to move side way. Isn't she look cute?

ZJ's Chalet

Celebrated my bro's ZJ 21st bday at NSRCC in early April. Took some photos of my kids at play.. Everything went on well for my bro.. n he was sabotaged by his frenz. Dumped into the pool, which it happen to my elder bro-ZP many yrs ago. So i concluded tt if u r a guy, n have a chalet wif swimming pool nearby, u bound to end up in the pool after the party is reaching an end. lol~ Coz nothing happen to me & my sis XR, when all 4 of us had the same chalet at the same area!

Wen we reach the chalet to check in, my dear son exclaimed happily tt we r gng to ZJ's new house.. ya.. new bungalow house! He's gng to "own" that bungalow for 2 days before he "sell" it off again & live back in HDB flats. lol~

JE @ rocker

Above pic is a mixture of my hse playground.. & Yeah! She can balance herself on the rocker w/o my help.

WL @ Swim

Nobody wanted to swim, as it was raining earlier. As WL insisted on swimming, we took him to the pool & he swam alone for a while. Din dare to let JE drip into the pool as the water is cold wif rain water.


Uncle MX playing bubbles with WL. I try blowing some bubbles but i was breathless in a few secs. Age is catching up on me. I took a lot of effort juz to blow 1 balloon.. tt i gave up after completing 1 miserable small balloon.

I had fun, so do WL, so do JE.. & of coz my bro, ZJ!

Happy 21st birthday to Zhi Jue!

New Job Scope

More than 6mths ago, i was away on a 8wks maternity leave. My work duties were properly distributed to my colleagues b4 i left...

Now, a colleague of mine has gone for her maternity leave.. UNPLANNED! Her EDD was supposed to be end apr/ early may. So she was suppose to do Quarter 1 consol, before she starts her leave. But on Mar 31, her water bag sudden burst during our lunch break.. n her baby was born via emergency C-section. Anyway, congras on the birth of her baby boy! Weighing 2.2kg..

Because of the sudden delivery, she havent even review my feb consol.. n i was left to struggle for mar consol by myself.. As mar is a Q1 consol, there will be Q1 announcement to be made in may, so the consol has to be more careful, more complete.. & more than juz the basic consol is needed. Arrhh.. i hate it. Coz out of the blue, i'm being tested for all my accounting skills which i havent touch for ages... Cashflow.. consol.. elimination.. Hai~~

Although 1 good thing is, i got someting nice to add to my resume if i leaving this co! My consol hands-on experience!

Amazing Weight GAIN

Below is a pic tt i dig out from my email inbox. It was taken in 2006 when i start work less than 2yrs from my graduation.

I looked so skinny back then hor? I din realised i used to have such slim arms...

4 yrs later.. in 2010, i became this:

OMG!!!

I look so fat now! My waist length went up 3". Ytd during lunch conversation, we were asking a skinny colleague what's her pant waist size. She said 27". I told my fren i had tt size before. They all immediately L-O-L! Yup.. that was in the past! Now i tink i measured ard 30". Does this consider the sacrifice I made for my 2 kids?

When can i ever find back my slim waist? Yup, my weight is gng down slowly.. but toooo slowww.. 6kg to go!

Hai~! Recently i start to crave for choco, fast food.. tink i'm stress up now..

CONTROL! arh! I MUST CONTROL!

Piss off with my Iphone

Took some nice pics of JE's latest development. Was about to upload to my facebook when the network was super slow. Since my pc is on, i try connect via my pc to upload the pics into my pc... Who knows.. the itune auto upgrade the version.. then try sync with my iphone.. n cause it to HANG! OMG!!! Hang!?!?!

I cant switch off my iphone, unplug fr pc, cant get back to normal mode. Search online, ask my bro for help, manage to restart the phone, only to get back to the HANG mode again. Damn! I search online for help.. nothing.. i guess it muz be the stupid PC wins 7 causing the problem. I try install itunes previously n got problems connecting my phone to itunes. So i try install itunes on my netbook wif win XP, n it manage to link up my phone & restore to factory settings!!!! Which means- my pic, data, contact, music, apps are all GONE! WTH rite! I din wan to restore.. i din ask to restore.. coz i havent even back up my data.. n it hang my phone n force it to restore. I only wan to upload pic & download music to my iphone. So upset lor.

Lucky my contact in my sim cards r still present. Have to re-add the apps.. pics gone! got to take new pics.. Hai.. N my $0.99 apps download is gone when i havent even complete the game..

Stupid Iphone! Stupid Itune! & Stupid Wins 7 system!

Baby Contest- Yet my Gal cant participate!

There is this Baby 2010 competition going on at 31 CCs in Singapore. Over at Sembawang & Yishun, the CCs are organising. Althought I have missed the one at Sbwg, I don mind bringing my kids to Yishun... BUT after reading the T&C, I felt so disappointed again. They say baby must be between 6mths - 24mths as at 1st Mar 2010. Hai~ My gal only reach 6mth tomorrow. So she doesnt fall into the catergory. So sad rite... I also heard of another baby contest, also must be 6mth as at 1st mar. Not organised by CC, but some baby fair. Always miss the requirement by a bit only. Hai~

Nvm.. she grow up and join Miss Singapore Universal. Baby contest, no big deal!

DREAMS come True

Finally! After 1.5yrs, i'm finally going on a far-away holiday.. at least further than Malaysia. Fix, book & confirm! HONG KONG, here i come...

I rmbr the last time my family went HK, i was busy preparing my wedding. So i miss that opportunity. Have been bugging hb for yrs to bring me to HK. He always complain he dunno how to communicate in cantonese. So he feared to visit HK. I have waited n waited until yes, finally, my family gng to HK again! Wooohhooo~

This round i'm gng in jun, with my parents, sis, bro, aunt, cousins & bringing my dearest son, WeiLun! It will be his first ride on the aeroplane. Hopes he like the ride! Hb couldnt make it for the trip as his leave is freeze for his company official opening in Jun. I feel bad abt ditching him n go HK w/o him. But then, it's also his fault for nvr bringing me to HK all these years. If i wait for him some more, i doubt i will nvr get any more chance in the near future. So better not miss tis opportunity again. So.. bye, Hubby!!!

Air tix book, Hotel Book.. Jun 12 - jun 17! 6 Days 5nites. Shopping, Eating, Playing, +++ lots of fun! Arhh. so looking forward to it... 3more months.

Pocket Hole burnt also...

Why? Why? Why?

WHY? 为什么？
十万个为什么...

Why the lift buttons at the ground floor doesn't have the DOWN button? Only got the UP button?
Why daddy is not here yet?
Why daddy is walking behind us?
Why this?
Why that?
Why? WHy? WHY?.... WHHHYYYYY??????

Never ending WHY?

(Above qns ask by my toddler son!)

Sometimes i wish to lie to him to shut his qns up! But i know it is wrong to lie to him. I try answer him, but he will repeat the SAME qns again & again! Arrrhhh! Till he got another qns to ask me! I try ignore his qns, but again I felt I shouldn't ignore him. It's like I'm not responding & interacting with him. Sort of consider rude. Still, he will ask again & again...

How should i endure & react to his never-ending WHYs???

WHY MUST HE ASK WHY???

Jia En flipping

CNY 2010

Today is the 12th day of Lunar New Year of Tiger! Havent have the time to update... So here's a brief summary:

Eve of CNY: Lunch @ my mum's hse: Steamboat + Hot plate. Dinner @ my Mil's hse: Steamboat (AgAiN!!!) Anyway, i was glad tt my bb gal behaves quite well at my mum's hse during lunch. So i could enjoy my lunch.

Day 1 - 3 CNY: Hse visiting @ relatives' hses. Nothing special.

Gamble: I only manage to gamble once & i lost more dan $20 in tt game session. I still have not gain back my better luck yet.

Lo Hei: Surprisingly, i had 4 to-date already. 1st @ hb's grandparent's hse. 2nd @ Crystal Jade wif my poly frenz. 3rd @ Kor's hse wif my family. 4th @ SW's hb's stall wif my colleagues. I'm still counting... 5th one coming tis fri @ my company D&D!!! The most "lo hei" i ever had in 1 year! Every time i ask for HUAT ar! Yet nvr win any toto yet..

D&D 2010: Tis fri is our company D&D @ the Pines. It also the day of the AngBao $10M toto draw date. I was jokingly telling my colleagues, whom we shared a $20 toto purchased fr 1 of the lucky venue (Chong pang 7eleven). At 9.30pm, we should stay tuned to the toto results & match our Toto tix, instead of matching our D&D lucky draw numbers. Once we win, we straight away order Buddha jump over the wall, & eat in front of our bosses. Haha~~~ (Still day-dreaming now...)

A lot of my pics are in FB... it quicker to load into FB den onto blog. Tink i shd set up a flickr a/c, n try upload some pic ter too. Till then.. let's

HUAT AR!!!

Fantastic Days!!!

Yeah~!! Had 2 busy & great days: Sunday & Monday!

Sunday: Advance Birthday Celebration for my dear boi- WeiLun!
He's turning 3hree! Times really flies...

Since his actual day is on Feb 8, monday. We held an advance celebration for him. We had lunch wif my family.. 外公，外婆，大舅，大舅母，阿姨和小舅! Lunch was at Mayzin at Northpoint. Simple chinese meals yet taste great! I was glad that Jia'En was very coorperative during lunch. She finally accepts being carried by my family members. WL rec'd lots of angbaos.. n toys: a doreamon bag + Thomas & Friends Train set!

Dinner was spent wif hb's family. Tabao 煮炒 & ate at my MIL's hse. We also bought along a Doreamon cake & sang birthday songs (WL insisted on 2 version: English + Chinese!) wif WL! Photos r at my facebook. Haha~ Will try upload to the blog if i got the time @ home.

Actual day: 8 Feb, Monday.
We have prepared sweeties & choco for WL's classmates. We passed the goodies to the teacher who will help distribute to the classmates after their tea-snack in the afternoon. When i went to pick WL from school, all his classmates r excited to receive the goodies. WL is also kind enuff to share the goodies wif us at MIL's hse. He has 8 diff type of sweeties in a pack.. so distribute 1 ea for us. Lol~ But at the end of the day, he finish all by himself.. haha~

For myself, i had a great day on 8Feb too! Initially wanted to go to WL's sch to distribute the goodies, but worried he will wan to tag me home after distributing. So i asked teacher to distribute on WL's behalf. So i got a full day off for myself. Juz nice to pamper myself in preparation of CNY!

12.30pm. Went for scrub & full body massage.
2.30pm. Went for waxing & signed up IPL-underarm wif Strip! Pay $171.20 per session for 9 session. Cheap? Looking forward to my less-hairy & whiter underarm.. wahahaha~

Relaxing day ar? But now.. back to reality! @ work now... haha~

Hmm.. If my JE is not sticky to me, and my hb is able to look after her & WL alone, mayb i will try cook the dish this CNY reunion. Too bad.. have to try nxt yr bah.

Help is on the way!

Cont'd fr my last post..

Tt Thu nite JE burst into tears again after reaching home. As she couldn't slp well, she cried out loud. Hb try carry her out of the hse, to a nearby fitness area for a walk. At first she calmed down, den suddenly, she cried out loud again. Me staying at the 12th floor, can still hear her cries 1-2blocks away. Hb brought her to his mum's hse. On the way, he passed by the mrt stn, and everyone stare at my hb. He looked like he is 'kidnapping' a crying baby! So embarrasing... JE managed to calm down after MIL sayang her, fed her milk, n she fell asleep in the yao-lan.

Fri was her 2nd 6-in-1 jab. I request to c doctor at the polyclinic to enquire on JE's non-stop crying at nite. He say she is totally fine. N her cries is caused by her own attitude. If she is unwell or sick, she wont b able to stop crying n she will continue to cry the min she awake. So my JE doesnt fall into tt catergory.

Fri to sun morning, JE was in the care of my MIL. I got to spring clean my hse & attend a wedding banquet. JE was okie except a bit cranky due to the jabs.

Sunday, we went to buy a 2nd hand yao lan n went to my parents' place. JE has slightly improved as she no longer cry the min she stepped into my parents' hse. She began her terror cry when she fell sleepy. My dad quickly assemble the yao lan and after putting her in, she slept very well & stop crying. Miracle! Tt nite, i quickly assemble the yao lan back at home. She was slightly cranky & cries a bit.. but soon she able to quiet down n sleep well. Shift her back to her bb cot when she's in deep slp.

So far so good for these few nites. She still cries, but no longer for 2-3hrs.. after putting her in yao lan, she can slp better. I hope tt it will continue to work till she's more grown up. Keeping my fingers crossed!!! If not, i have to "安神" in my hse.

Jia En! Jia En! Stop Driving Me Crazy!!!

Hey! I don really noe wat's up this year! So many bad things r happening 1 after another!

2days after WL recover fr fever, i was stuck wif fever for 1 nite. It has been donkeys years since i last had fever.. mayb sch days? i really cant rmbr wen i last had fever. But definitely tis is not a simple fever.. as it spread fr WL to me, and then to JE!

JE was down wif fever last fri. Again we had difficulties in feeding her drink panadol. And she is forever rejecting to drink plain water! Sat mrng took JE n WL down to ICA to collect WL's passport. Yet, WL can finally travel out of Sgp! JE had a bad time at ICA, crying loudly for half an hr. It was super crowded n everyone was looking at me & the non-stop crying JE till she finally doze off...

JE din slp well n woke up wen v at bugis. Wasnt able to do much shopping as she was awake n cranky. After heading home, JE was again crying at hm. After coaxing her for a few hrs, we surrender & hb sent her to his mum's hse. Upon stepping out of the door, she stopped crying. She din cried all the way till inlaw's hse. At ard 9+, I tog she has calmed down, so brought her home. She cried again..all the way till 12mid nite.

Sun she woke up fine. Everything was fine.. till evening time.. alamak.. she cried again for hours.. I gave up n brought her to c a doctor. She has rashes on her legs & some on her arms. Doc diagnosed as rashes virus, and her cries was due to her itchy rashes. As a baby, she doesnt noe how to stratch, so she cry when itchy. Logical explaination, i shd have put some powder on her legs! I felt so stupid as not spotting the uncomfortableness in JE! Tt sun nite, lucky she was able to fall into slp easily.

Mon & tue was fine.
Ytd- Wed was hell!

She reaches home at ard 9pm. As she was still in pram, so hb n i quickly bathe so tt once she woke up, i can feed her milk n let her slp again. Who know after she woke up at 9.30, she couldnt slp back after her milk feeding! She began wif cranky & it turned into a fierce cry.. on-going till 1am. No matter how i carry her, rock her, push her in pram ard, she cry all the way. I did apply 2x cream + powder on her body.. N my last resolution was to feed her wif a bit of panadol to make her drowsy.

I'm not sure if taking panadol wen not having fever, will cause any effect on the body? But i really cant stand it. I screamed at hb! I screamed at JE! All doesnt helped. It was very late until we had no1 to turn to for help. Disaster! i even feel like slapped or hit her until she is unconsious! But i know i cant do tt! She's my baby, she's a human! She muz be feeling miserable too to cry tt loud.

Feel like seeking help from a doctor, psychologist or anyone professional to help n advise me? This is not a 1 time issue.. n has been on-going for 3mths already!

WL down wif fever!

Last nite, MIL reported tt WL has poor appetite during dinner & was slightly hotter den usual. So MIL fed him some fever medic at 6pm. Wen he returned home, his temperature has subsided. So i tog he has recovered, I din feed him any medic. At ard 2am, b4 hb went to bed, he touched WL n he was so HOT!!! Measured 38.8 & 39 deg.C in his ears! We woke him up to drink fever medicine, paste a cooling pad on his forehead, n let him return to slp.

Out of sudden he had fever. No other symptoms like flu or cough. And his temperature was so high at 2am. I try sponge him but he doesn't like the cold towel. He woke up tis morning wif ard 37 deg.C. As MIL say she could cope wif handling the 2 kids, hb & me went back to work. I having super busy workload at office. Auditors r hurrying us & my deadlines r tight. I cant really afford to take leave... Still, i'm glad MIL can manage. Thanks, Mom!

Hope WL recover n return to sch 2mr.

New Replacement to cheer me up!

2 days after i lose my T&Co bracelet, dearest hb bought me another bracelet. Nope.. not T&Co, juz an ordinary silver bracelet. He claimed it costs 1/12 of the T&Co bracelet price, so ard $30+. Still, i felt both guilty & touched. I knew he bought it juz to cheer me up. But looking at it, I felt so guilty for being so careless...

Well, a lot of ple has been consoling me that it's juz material lost. No1 is hurt or harm in this incident. Yeah, i agree. A colleague of hb also claim it's a minimal lost as compared to her losing her hb to cancer. So i guessed i felt better. At least hb is no longer as angried as before. So I should let it go..

Worst Day, Jinx Day, Unlucky Day.. 09-01-2010

I cant believe myself... how can i be so extremely careless, so useless of me....

I barely wore the bracelet for 3times only, and it's gone now.. gone forever!!!!!! Hb finally bought me a TIFFANY jewellery, and it's juz gone like this... I havent even show off enuff n it disappear. Went to yishun post office, follow by a shopping trip to orchard taka. Somewhere on the path along orchard rd, my bracelet fell off my hand once. I wore it back, i tried secure tighter, but it doesnt help. As i was carrying my bb ger, i juz wear it as per normal.

We took a short break at coffee club at taka. Hb took some pic of us, and i was still wearing tt bracelet. I juz spot the missing bracelet ard 5mins upon reaching home. There seem to be a tussle at the mrt ride, where i struggle to feed JE wif WL's leg resting on me. I muz have drop it there! I wonder will any1 ever pick it up n return to the smrt control station? It's seem like a normal S/S bracelet.. but to me, it costs so much & so precious! After 5yrs of waiting, i only manage to get this tiffany bracelet.

Please, any1 who is holding onto the bracelet, please kindly return to me...

The day is not over! Another shock came in right after i notice my missing bracelet. I lose my ger's anklet! A precious n ex gift fr her grandpa (XR: pls don tell any1 abt this yet). The pic at the coffee club already shown her missing anklet. I was hoping n praying tt it is lost at home, but i cant find it anywhere in our room, our beds, our sofa, etc. Oh my.. juz 1 day only, i can lose 2 items... total ard SGD700+!!!! I cried very badly tt sat nite... i don noe how to face my hb & my dad. I even had a dream tt i found both jewelleries on JE's romper, but it juz a dream... an unrealistic dream.

JE had a hard time trying to slp tt evening when we returned home. I had to cruddle her to slp for 2 hrs. Following by WL vomit all over the floor after his dinner. I am already very miserable, n yet more things r up against me.

I will always rmbr 09-01-2010!

Happy Twenty-Ten!!!!

Cheers to everyone! It's the start of a new year: 2010!!!

Christmas 2009 Presents

This is the 2nd yr that i can re-called receiving Xmas gifts from Hb. Last yr, hb gave me a SK white gold pendant.

This yr, he finally fulfilled my long-time wish of owning 1 Tiffany & Co jewellery! I rmbr i used to request for T&Co wedding band, if not, i wont marry him... But times really flies.. n after 5long yrs of waiting... i finally got it! Well, not a wedding ring, but a silver bracelet!

I have been threatening him.. if he still don give me a tiffany jewellery, i'm gng to give Jia'En a christian name: Tiffany. Lol~ So mayb tt is 1 of the reason he's finally giving me 1, before i do some reckless action. Wahaha~

Silver Bracelet

As for his xmas gift, well, i spent $200 on his clothings at the recent Isetan Prviate Sales.. gave him 3ties, 1 tie pin, 3 long-sleeve shirts. Things that he needed to mit other girls at work!

Taking abt his female colleagues.. hai.. really upset me alot. Let's hope hb will improve better in 2010...

No Xmas gifts for the kids.. haha.. have been buying toys as n when already. So there isnt any need for me to pamper them somemore during tis festive. Lol~
