Sunday, May 11th, 2008Did you like the band? What I really wanted to say was, that I know someone who is in dire straits. He trusted a friend in a business deal and for ten years, he had been putting money in, more and more and more every month and finally, what his friend had promised, never materialised. […]
Frustrated with Technology
Sunday, May 11th, 2008You know, the Streamyx is DAMN slow tonight and I am getting really pissed. When I turned on my laptop at my Mom’s place the other day, it was super fast, like snapping your fingers with every click. Here, I am going crazy clicking away and nothing is happening. I am sure impatient. Perhaps I […]
In search of new Audio Racks
Sunday, May 11th, 2008Recently, the Hubs threw out one unit Sony TV, one unit JVC hifi stereo and one unit Sanyo mini-compo. These three items in our home just died. Now we need to replace them but not before we purchase an audio racks that will blend in with my living room! Sometimes, I wonder, what life would […]
Chilli Padi Mouth
Sunday, May 11th, 2008xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
If you do not want a child that has a mouth like Tee, then for goodness sake, when you are pregnant, stay clearly AWAY from chillies. I am a chilli freak and am now paying for the consequences.
Here is just one of the many examples of why I feel this way.
Whilst driving in a thunderstorm […]
Red in the face and loving it!
Sunday, May 11th, 2008xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Status: Red in the face from burning 200 calories on the treadmill, I actually RAN today…….non-stop for ten whole minutes and shocked myself.
Dinner: 1 Mango
Confirmation: I have not been kidnapped by unidentified aliens. I have not had a leg accident lying in a hospital bed. And I have not gone mental yet from an over-chatty, […]
Going to Perth again!
Monday, May 5th, 2008It’s my cousin’s 50th birthday this year down under and naturally, we’ve been invited for her surprise birthday party. We just went to Perth last year and would have really prefered to go to Melbourne this year. But! Since we are the nice people that we are, we have agreed to come along for this […]
Getting a toddler out of your bed
Saturday, May 3rd, 2008Our 3.5 year old girl STILL sleeps with us. HELP!!! What strategies would you employ to get her out of your bed? Allow her to cry it out? That would wake the neighbours and seriously, my girl can scream for three hours on and off. *faint* Perhaps we need to look into one of those […]
Mad at the Hubs <0>
Thursday, May 1st, 2008xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
One way we are different is that I am all gung-ho and positive and will try and try till I die where as the Hubs, hmmm…….let’s just say, he’s not that.
Today, whilst on the treadmill, I called out to him to call the treadmill supplier to ask a question. He yelled back that he’d […]

Switching schools
Thursday, May 1st, 2008xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
That’s it. Next week, I’m off to a Chinese preschool to register Tee for Term 3. I’m done with her school. Her old teacher just left and the new teacher is not quite the same, not that she is bad, but I have very high standards. If the school is costing so much, then I have certain […]
Day 3 & 4 - Failed already :-P
Thursday, May 1st, 2008xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
It is an official fact that I simply CANNOT stay away from bad food. Why do you think I didn’t post yesterday? This is why it’s really important for parents to inculcate good eating habits from early on because as an adult, it is very, very hard. My mother, she will call me fat yet buy […]
