    Christmas present for the Hubs

    Wednesday, December 31st, 2008

    Can you believe what the Hubs wanted for his Christmas present??? A brand new PS3!!! As though he’d even have time to play it!!! I told him no. Absolutely no. Besides, there are already TWO units in my Mom’s place belonging to my Mom and my brother so he can always borrow theirs. They are […]

    Pregnancy weight

    Wednesday, December 31st, 2008

    Despite feeling incredibly sick, I am still famished everyday. Ever since I got pregnant, I have been SOOOOOOOO hungry. To the point where I have to consciously control my intake. But now that the nausea has come with a bang, I am eating smaller meals but more frequently. I have already put on 3 kgs. […]

    Another little prayer

    Wednesday, December 31st, 2008

    It’s interesting how Tee’s prayer always start with her Nana……..so sweet. This came out of her last night:
    Dear God,
    Please make my Nana stronger and well so she can play with me more. Give me enough energy so that I can play forever morning, afternoon and night time and so I never have to sleep. Never […]

    Indonesian helper’s stupidity

    Wednesday, December 31st, 2008

    This morning I arrived at my Mom’s place to the loudest screaming ever. My mother, who has cancer and is in pain everyday, goes livid whenever her helper lies to her; but despite being told more than a hundred times not to lie, she will still lie. *shakes head*
    The Indonesian helper has been working here […]

    Career in the beaty industry during recession

    Wednesday, December 31st, 2008

    Many graduates are worried that they won’t be able to get a job in this recession seeing that many companies are retrenching rather than hiring. My advice to them would be to try looking at some jobs in the beauty industry in the meantime even if they are doctors but can’t get a job in […]

    Four year old saying a little prayer

    Tuesday, December 30th, 2008

    Heard last night after lights out:
    Dear God,
    Please make my Nana feel better so that she won’t be in so much pain everyday. Please make my Mommy’s new baby uglier than me.
    Amen.

    I have more than two waists on my thighs

    Friday, December 26th, 2008

    For the most part of my adulthood, that is to say a good fifteen years, my waistline was never more than 23 inches. Scout’s honour. I always had a large tush but everything else sat ok.
    Now, when I look down at my thighs (and actually, I have to perch out over my belly to see […]

    When do you know when someone is the right one…..

    Friday, December 26th, 2008

    One part of me is saying, you just DO!!! And then the other part is saying, you never do……
    What’s your take?
    When we have our first wafts of love at the post-pubescent age of 14, we are all so sure that HE is IT/ or she is it (for any male readers out there). SO sure. […]

    Christmas Angels at the Pavillion

    Friday, December 26th, 2008

    Just before Christmas, we brought Tee to the Pavillion to get photographed with some human angels. Quite a nice idea, I must say for the mall to hire these beautifully clad ladies for lots of picture taking! Santa was somewhere around but not so popular, hahaha…..

    The most popular angel.
    .

    Thai angel?
    .

    Indian angel?
    .

    The prettiest angel, I thought….and […]

    A wonderful Christmas…….

    Friday, December 26th, 2008

    This Christmas was my best ever, as far as I can recall.
    We managed to shop following a wish list for the orphanage (despite having to traipse all over town in search for tricycles, remote controlled cars and handbags! amongst other things), organised drinking water bottles for the entire brood and most importantly, delivered them on […]

    How to get pregnant Mamapumpkin style

    Thursday, December 25th, 2008

    After a year of dating, my eggs, who have extremely high standards mind you, finally fell head over heels in love with one solid, special male sperm. So she let him in. Let’s hope they make it to fruition. But here’s how we got there:
    1. See a Chinese sinseh. Not just any Chinese sinseh. A […]

    I got knocked up by a Stallion

    Thursday, December 25th, 2008

    Hence the reason for your loss my absence. Not that anyone noticed! But yeah, I’ve been missing in action because I’ve simply been perfecting my yawns for the mega yawn competition next August. The Hubs admitted that his boys finally stopped to ask for directions. Whaddya know?! I always knew it wasn’t me!! It was […]

    Motherly Love

    Thursday, December 18th, 2008

    The strongest love in the world…………
    These are just a fraction of some of the ways that my Mother has shown me her love:-
    1. Despite her cancer, illness and tiredness, cooks me an array of delicious meals to be delivered to my home whilst I am pregnant. I will never forget this. It is her legacy […]

    Where to get your cattle supplies

    Thursday, December 18th, 2008

    Ok, I’ll be upfront with you. I am NOT an animal person. I generally don’t MIND animals but I’m not crazy about them. I will not be cruel to them but if given a choice, I’d rather be in a place without animals than with. Get my drift?
    Having said that, I HAVE lived in a […]

    Tee and her Tok Tok

    Thursday, December 18th, 2008

    This is Tee and her Tok Tok. The both of them are constantly in battle over my Mother and of course, Tee always, ALWAYS……….wins. They fight over what which channel on TV to watch, they fight over who gets one to one time with my Mother, they fight over where and what to eat for […]

    Las Vegas for Christmas

    Thursday, December 18th, 2008

    Tan Sri is currently traveling with his wife in New York and London whilst his children await his return to travel somewhere nearer to home. He gave all sorts of reasons why they could not travel with him. For all you know, they might be spending a romantic Christmas at a las vegas strip having […]

    Toddlers with fast thinking

    Thursday, December 18th, 2008

    I wish I had this talent but I don’t. I’m not sure where she gets it from but she certainly is a fast and creative thinker, my little Tee.
    This morning, I sent her to brush her teeth by herself and she’s getting pretty good at this task. Later though, I noticed that she had some […]

    Ordering new security systems

    Wednesday, December 17th, 2008

    Despite paying a thousand every month for my apartment’s monthly management and maintenance fees which includes money into the building sinking fund, there were still three break-ins last year. The management claim that it is an insider job but I really cannot understand how such a small apartment with so many security guards can still […]
