one of the ways to wind down your hyperactive kid…
in the comfort of your home. I went out and bought a baby pool for jerry. been toying with the thought ever since he turned 6 months but didn’t buy in the end because it was quite expensive, my mum is against it (she thinks its another useless thing to own) and I managed to convince myself that jerry will soon outgrow the pool and that the public pools have loads of space for him to waddle around instead of this. thing is, every trip to the public pool in the past always land jerry at the paed, because he always catch some germs/bugs or a cold thereafter. its…

My Sunday evening..
It’s pouring outside, and I’m feeling all warm and happy inside the house.. Because… I’m eating steamboat! Perfect evening in my books. Here’s what I have got in my pot.. Wong bok (Chinese cabbage) and duo-colored sweet corn (I swear by them but they are expensive stuff!). Egg tofu, chicken franks, and baby corn. King oyster mushrooms, fresh shiitake mushrooms, and green leafy choy sum vegetables. Fish balls and my favorite must-have ‘Tao ki’ (must be deep fried prior, I am anal on such stuff) And a tray of yummy pork belly slices. Look at all the marbling! Last but not least, the condiments! Home made chilli, Mizkan sesame flavor…

life back at work as a mummy.
been wanting to jot down my thoughts but i have been sooooo tired lately. i crashed out while doing things halfway every night and i sleep in the most odd manner. i havent had a decent conversation with the husband for days.. but i’m surviving. and thankfully for the rain yesterday morning and a nice husband who said yes to sending me to work when i nicely asked. we finally had proper conversations (non-baby related) in the car on the way here listening to class 95 while being stuck in the morning traffic jam that was amplified by the heavy rain. i should be thankful for traffic jam, because it…

Rainy Saturday..
Spent a productive Saturday! Got out of bed early and shifted the furnishings around in the room to make way for the cot delivery! Headed out with aunt (she’s here in Singapore to help take care of myMum while she tries to rest and recover from her recent surgery), brother and der for dim sum at Hua tin. Yummy, but these days.. I can’t seemed to stomach much and the only joy I had was the mango purée with herbal jelly, sago and pomelo. Haha. My boy has got a sweet tooth and is more receptive to all things sweet! Swung by goodwood park for 20pcs of durian puff goodness……

It’s raining..
Love the pitter patter of the rain against the aircon, and yup! I’m back in my own room enjoying my personal sanctuary yet again for the whole of this weekend. The boy had to work yesterday, it was warehouse sale for him yesterday and he had to help out. I wasn’t up to stepping out at all with thy hazy weather so I hid in my own room to hibernate. My favourite activity of the past before becoming a missus. All I did was to drag my mum out to the supermarkets to do the weekly grocery run (need to stock up the fridge for my daily dinner) and I…

On the road of no return.
Curls it shall be! Wish me luck! On a random note, this auntie just sat down beside me and ask the male hairdresser to get a female to serve her instead. Haha. The guy was so hurt. Posted via LiveJournal app for iPhone.

Loving my Friday!
Yesterday was a lovely day, work aside, I was quite chirpy the whole day! I think it was because the weekend was near… Me on the escalator at the train station, heading to work. Loving my bottega heels! Passing through the gravel land, feeling every inch of pain as the bottega battle with the stones. Finally in the lift! I met up with Andy for dinner and had a nice time catching up. It was a quick dinner as I was late from having to clear ads (it’s Friday and that’s just a telco marcommer’s life). I left the office only at 9+.. My seafood marinara at Mr. Bean which…

Friday nights are fun nights.
finally, the 3 good friends do dinner! when was the last time we did it? it’s been so long! it was a really “sweet” day (filled with this big bag of mentos that cindy brought along). i had wanted to drink myself silly but i ended up being the most sober one since der drank and i was supposed to drive. errr.. where did the fun go? but still, it was filled with laughter as usual. and the boy acting anti-social with his iphone. getting to the place was a nightmare. because… (1) no one checked the actual address before heading there and we ended up in bad traffic for…

the boy in the sun
loving this picture of the boy basking in the sun. just a tad annoying because he was enjoying himself while i was working my arse off. i super hate my tan lines. and i cannot imagine how i am going to hide from the sun with the many many weekends activities for work in the upcoming months. i wish this didn’t had to come like now. i want to be fair-skinned! can like someone take over my job please?!

It’s Monday again!
It’s a wonder that I wake up earlier on weekends than weekdays and my mum has been wondering what I am up to that she don’t get to see me on weekends. Saturday was just one really hot day. Popped over to sentosa for work. Had to take done pictures for an event happening and in a bid to stay out of the sun, I wore a hat! But the sun was strong and I couldn’t stay in the shade all the time because I needed to get in some action. The result was ugly tan lines on top of those that I bagged during the krabi trip. Argh. Looks…
