Again??!!

Really siow wan la me... yes, watching Korean Drama again... Weyo? Cos LaundryAmah purposely called me to tell me ah, this show got 'leng chai' and very funny lor... so I also watched la. Then hor, actually I don't want to watch wan, but then, after one episode after another, I can't help it but to download it from You Tube!!!!!!!!! Sei Mou!!!!!!!!!

The last time was My Lovely Kim Sam Soon and now this My Girl .......

(aikes... want to post the pictures but SCREAMYX chi sin ledi... so, refer to the links if you want to join me go chi sin...)

Oh well, I only watch funny and very funny Korean Dramas oni... those cry cry, weep-by-the-buckets or lost memory show... I'd rather not watch la... anyway, Korean Drama only got 4-types of story line...

1) Main actor or actress amnesia (lost memory la) during accidents.... then bumped into each other fell in love... or, fell in love with other ppl, then bumped into old flame.. then got flashbacks... you get what I mean la here...
2) Main actor or actress are ACTUALLY brothers and sisters but was somehow lost touch during war-ke, earthquake-ke, this-ke that-ke.... etc la... just lost touch when they are small or even babies.. then hor, when grew up and they can't recognised each other, they fell in love then hor oni they know they are brother and sister.... cos, their father mother also bumped into each other during grocery shopping ke... lunch ke or last last minute, want to propose ke, and broke the news that "Nope, you can't marry her/him cos she/he is your Sister/Brother....!!" OMG I'd rather mati la if in real life!
3) Main actor and actress love each other wan... but hor, dont want to admit... konon berpura-pura love other not so main actor or actress in the same show la... then, later, almost about episode 15 or 16, then oni they curi curi admit they love each other... (usually K-Drama got oni 20 episodes or longest 40 lor)
4) Errr... cham-lak, I forgot liow, but I told LaundryAmah before... (eh Amah, can help me fill in this no. 4 ah??)

Ok, enuff ranting... got to go attend to anak liow.... ah, I like weekends....today some how I want to post like funni-funny lidat...

Jalan Jalan, Cari Makan

As mentioned earlier, me and Oscar went for dinner with LaundryAmah and her family at a reccommended place by Angeleyes.


Arrived and was very surprised with this place called Queen's Park. I mean, I always pass by this place on our way to Carrefour (next to Queen's Park) but I never bother to go in cos eerrr, I thought not much there. But to my surprised, there are alot to look and also to makan makan..


We went to this place called the Xin Wah Restaurant and mistaken that its a 'tai chow' restaurant.. Xin Wah only serves Bak Kut Teh. We maximum camwhore since me and LaundryAmah seldom come out and eat dinner.... so camwhore and laugh laugh and the kids also enjoyed themselves.... for pictures, please got to LaundryAmah's site cos I didn't bring my camera.... Luckily, LaundryAhPah came along to be the camera man.... He he....


After dinner, LaundryAhPah buy us yummy-li-cious Baskin Robbins (sorry, this one sure no picture cos when we got our ice-creams, terus dig in liow.... yum yum)...


After stuffing ourself full with devil-li-cious food.... we head home.... Ah... so satisfied... He He, might go again next week.... without the kids with LaundryAmah... cos we want to jiak (makan), shop and also camwhore.... a must!!!


Now, to aid my digestion... a cup of tea for me... while I surf other blogs....

My Weekend...

Sigh.... just sat down to take a break. A quick run down on my morning till now..

10.ooam: Woke up (aiya.. I slept late ma...)
10.15am: Oscar woke up and I prepare him breakfast (I made toast bread, sausages, eggs and some fries cos Oscar said he wanted it... and orange juice..)
11.30am: Read some magazine and put in the laundry into the machine.
11.50am: Sweep the floor, mop the floor, wipe cabinets and wash toilet (I am like the maid!!!)
12.30am: Bath Oscar and let him have his vitamins... (juice again cos he wanted some again!)
1.10pm: Took some meat out to get ready for dinner......
1.30pm: Realised that I am having dinner with LaundryAmah and family... took the meat and put back into freezer
1.45pm: Hang washed laundry out and prepare for another load...
1.55pm: Sat down in front of the laptop to type this post......

Sigh x 10000000000........ my boring life.... as a wife, mommy, daughter and maid! All lumped into one.... What do you do on weekends.... Looking forward to dinner with LaundryAmah. Better go shower now and do some ironing.... then nap nap a little while...

Anger Management?

I have not been or rather not even A good mommy to Oscar..... so sad....

Reason for so is, I loose my temper easily nowadays when Oscar do something wrong. I use to be very patient with him and would just say "Its Ok, no worries". But now, even if he play with the remote control, I would say no and insist that he puts it back ....



I really don't know what is wrong with me. I love Oscar very much and it really hurts me everytime I scold or yell at him. And, what is more heart breaking is, whenever I scold him, he would come and hug me tightly and the tighter he hold on to me, the more I feel my heart is breaking... into tiny pieces.... I must really look into my scolding sometimes....

Tonight after dinner we went out for a walk cos I am going crazy at home with all the house chores and also the FOLDING .....so, I told hubby I needed a break. After our little shopping trip, Oscar did it again! Or, should I said, I DID IT AGAIN! I was very mad when we reached home and Oscar reach for the bread in the bag.... he already had one in the car and I knew it for sure if he were to take it out, he will not be able to finish it. And yet, he took it out and he challenged me despite of me telling him not to... he took it out and wave it at me! I took out the cane and threat to him with it..... I felt so so bad cos when Oscar saw the cane, he straight away put back the bread and ran over to his life saviour, daddy...... Oscar refuse to let me change him for bed because of this..........



I felt so so bad. I love to spend time with Oscar and I really cherised our time together. Reading out loud together, laughing at the cartoon charaters on tv, playing blocks and puzzles and even eating the same piece of toast.... we really enjoy our time together. But whenever he ticks me off, I am really mad..... Why? Why am I like that?



Oscar, mommy love you............ sorry baby....





Oscar enjoying himself at the park.... He likes going to the park....

My Boss

I have worked like ten over years... No la, I am not that old la, its just that I started work at a very young age...

So far, I have worked like almost 7 jobs in my ten over years of employment.... All job never lasted for 2 years.... its this current job that lasted for 5 years!!! Wa, must give myself a pat on the back la.... (no... this post is not about LaundryAmah)

I have worked with almost all species of BOSS... from young and handsome ones, to old ones and old wolf!!!! But, there are 4 who leave very deep deep memory....

Mr XX Chan
He is the nice-est one. He treat me like a little sister... always make sure that I have enuff to eat during overtime in the office, make sure that I leave home early if it rains, when going out to meeting, he make sure that I park my car next or even near to his, make sure that i have this, i do that comfortably etc etc.... He also defended me many times in the office cos I was just a little girl when I worked for him.... Nope, he is not handsome la... infact hor, his face ah, its like the sureface of the MOON... if you know what I mean... He is not the best, but he is the nice-est! Or maybe he knows my cousin will tumbuk him if he dont take care of me? Oh whatever....

Mr XX Kok
Well... err... how to put this ah? He is nice also la... but I dont like his attitute towards work. He always PUSH me to the front to face bad suppliers or customers.... Aiya... he is like asking you to be his shield la... And hor, once, I think his mistress hor, called him on his mobile... it so happened that he is in the loo, so I picked up la... the other end was one sleepy head woman calling and informing HIM that she just woke up and asked what is today's plan... I no chance to say hello cos that sleepy head woman kept on talking like in one whole sentence, so i just hung up... I just pretend I never took the call la... Then, once the wife called, ask me to be spy pulak! Ask me to report to her if I picked up any 'suspicious' calls for the husband.... She even 'bribed' me with some dont-know-what-brand chocolate for this.... Aiya.... I hate this spy here spy there work . Mr XX Kok is ok la, but eerrrr...

Mr XX Kee
Wa... this one is really classic. Nothing much about him that can make me do a post on him but, he is the only boss that is really fussy with his drink... If you say fussy with his coffee or tea, I can understand. But, he is fussy with his PLAIN WATER!!!! Sei mou!!! The second day I report to work, he already sounded to me that he dont like the way I HANDLE his drink! So, he took me to the pantry, and told me, he wants his hot water to this level.... his warm water to his level... and some cold water to this level..... @#$%^&%%^&$#* You say he chi sin or not... Then, he will fart during meetings!!! I can just die when he does that.... no, I wish the earth would open up and swallow me up!!! @#$%$#^ Tak ada standard langsung........

Then came Mr XX D
Hmmm, he is a very knowlegeable person... Knows almost everything on earth! But, dont know what is manners and politeness and human respect... YOu see, God made man and God didnt do a good job... (sorry God) God didn;t make Mr XX D perfect. Mr XX D like to talk loudly and embarass ppl in front of other ppl. You see, sometimes, you will have some not very ENGRISH speaking colleague in a same office wan ma... but hor, Mr XX D will laugh at their pronunciation of engrish works wan wor... so teruk la. He then will teach the correct word, but when repeated already and correctly by that particular colleague, he will insist that they repeat it like 5 - 10 times; RIGHT IN FRONT OF EVERYONE!!! Aiya.... why la... so malu case la that colleague of mine. Aiya... many more incidents la, want to talk about him ah... I think I need to creat another blog la............ But one thing I respect him is... he is very 'charitable' (in inverted comma) and he is very helpful... this one I have no doubts... You need help... you call him. Sure sampai wan...

Many apologies to ppl I know who are reading this but, I just can't help it cos I beh tahan how some BOSS-Y like to mistreat their staff.... I know we makan gaji only... but please la, give us face sikit la.... malu la boss..... We want to work in a happy environment ... Ok, enuff ranting... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

** Want to buy? **

What is this? Are we doing mass production of boxes to pack moon cakes? Am I baking moon cakes to sell?


(the meaty man is not the butcher, but my hubby!)

NOPE!! Its my hubby's work. And its one like 5% of it as the total of it... I dont't think our tiny apartment can fit. So, hubby only brought back 5% of it to be done at home as his customer need it like soooooo urgently!! The rest, hubby employed ppl to do liow... If he bring back and do, I think we all will have no place to walk!!!!


This is the finished product....... Some product which Guang Liang endorsed... Dont ask me what, I dont know and I didnt ask..... my JOB is only to assist in folding the boxes... fold fold fold till my hand hurt like mad!!!! And developed a migrain doing it! But, I am happy cos I can help hubby in his work... at least he is not so stress.... I zzzz at 12 last night but hubby stayed up till the morning to finish it..... There are just too many parts in just ONE box!!!!!

Happy Birthday Leslie

Happy Birthday to you...
Today is Leslie Cheung's Birthday... And I almost forgot! So, I quickly rush home to watch one of his CD... and I took this pic for rememberance.... Nope, I am not siow, but I just adore him...

(Aiyo, the date on the photo gila ledi la...)

My Mom (Part 2)

Lunch time, so steal some time to blog. Few nights ago I went home to mom's place for dinner. During dinner, I sat right next to mom cos Oscar insist he wants to sit next to me and my dad... aiya that is not important. But as mom was scooping one big dallop of 'sengkuang' (those stuffing usually ppl use to make popiah but my mom cooked it and we just eat with lettuce)... I noticed something.... Mom's hand is full of green viens which is like very visible now. From the last time I hold her hand (which was during one of our shopping trips few months ago), I did't noticed her hand was that 'old' looking. Then I continue with my meal, and while chatting with dad and Oscar adding a few of his baby language and asking 'why the fish got sauce', 'why no cut vege small small', 'why kung kung {my dad} eat rice no soup soup' and many more why's... I turn over and saw something again which I didn't noticed in my many days spent with mom; I see wrinkles around the corner of her eyes... I see brown spots, spot of aging and also freckles on my mom's face... quite a lot of grey hair too... Suddenly, I felt that my mom has aged like 10 years!!! Aged like 10 freaking long years!!!!

All of a sudden, I felt so guilty. Guilty in a sense that I see mom everyday cos I need to drop Oscar off in the morning and pick Oscar up in the evening and I didn't notice this. This "Touch n Go" visit of mine at mom's place does not allow me enuff time to really 'venture' into mom's dailies. I called sometimes during lunch time but am always afraid I will wake Oscar up on his afternoon nap cos whenever the phone rings at home, Oscar will INSIST that he picks up the phone!! Yes, our house has got a 3 year old RECEPTIONIST!. I use to go over to mom's place on Saturdays but for the past few months, being very lazy me and also things to do in my own house, I didn't go visit mom for our usual Saturday dim sum or MegaMall shopping session.

I felt guilty for not being there for mom when she needed someone to hear her gossips about my aunty and uncle.... I felt guilty for always being late when I said I will be early, I felt guilty for mom's last minute cancellation meeting with her siblings because the siblings of hers like to meet like odd hours like 3 - 4 pm weekdays!! No need to work meh me.... I felt guilty that I show long and black face when mom takes Oscar to town with my aunty.............(scared she cannot handle my son ma..) Oh my dear God, I have alot of guilt and its like all over my ugly looking face!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hate this kind of feeling....

I know I will sound strange cos I always decline friends gathering with the reason I want to spend time with my mom.... But, if I dont spend my quality time with the most important woman in my life, who and when should I spend time with? I know I am bad cos when mom critic my cooking I flicked and said I LIKE... (during her stay at my house when he house underwent a minor reno), but all she did was to ask me not to add too much salt or too much oyster sauce... come to think of it, its damn salty too the food I cooked for my family......

As I was writing this post, this just reminded me of a "good friend" of mine whom she love to spend time with her mom but can't take her mom's ranting sometimes... But, God made woman like that wat... rant rant rant... grumble grumble grumble... All these MOMMYies need is our attention and they feel lonely... lonely cos their husband ran out of conversation with them (hey mom and dad celebrated their 30th anniversary lately) or their son is too busy with their own girlfriend or family.......... so, left back what they called DAUGHTERs... that is us...

Anyway, no time to feel guilty now, time to compensate back those lost time with mom... must start to plan my weekend early liow!!! Ha ha, now only begining of the week, talk about weekend liow.... sei mou me... Thank you for reading my rant.... I feel better now...

Please Pray

I just got to know from LaundryAmah that her mother is admitted to the hospital. I usually called her mother by the name "Ah Poh"......

Ah Poh called me today somewhere around 10 plus to tell me she has got breathing difficulty and also feel like fainting. She even have difficulty in speech.... I was very worried cos LaundryAmah was out for appointment and her brother is in Bangi. I called Ah Poh at home again and she could not talk to me anymore... No point talking to the maid! I asked one of my colleague to help me fetch Kieran and Stephanie from school and please help me see what happened to Ah Poh....I can't leave the office cos there are some urgent work to attend to. Kieran was terrified cos he called me in the office telling me that his Ah Poh vomited non stop.... I called LaundryAmah and she is like so far away, so she require quite a lot of travelling time to go home.

LaundryAmah just contacted me and informed that now her mother is in the hospital waiting for doctor..... Eh, emergency ward should always have doctor on standby ma.... why need to wait one.... Really bad service... Yes, I am now condemning private hospital... The one in Jalan Gasing.... Opposite one Nursing Home............ This is not the first time I hear blunder about this hospital....

Ah Poh might be fierce sometimes and her trademark would be "Oi Sei ah" (want to die ah?) but deep down she is very soft hearted and kind towards people. She always pray for me when I tell her Oscar is not well or I am not well. Few months back when my mom's not well... Ah Poh went to help me get some information and also recommended me a doctor.

I just hope that Ah Poh will be well soon and please pray for her. LaundryAmah... please be strong.....

** My Turn **

Yes, its my turn to get sick. Was not feeling well on Friday night and it went worst on Saturday morning. But, I still pull myself to go to the market and work... Then, on my way back from the office, that's it! Really tak boleh tahan liow....Stopped by mom's place to rest for a while and mom made me soup and noodles... stay for a while and head home... Was lying on the bed and couch the whole of Saturday noon and evening. Then hubby got to go for badminton game and left me and Oscar at home. He bought us dinner before he went. I had porridge and Oscar had noodles.... I noticed Oscar's appetite had increased... probably because of Ajinomoto food cos he sapu the whole packet of "kon low mien"...

Then I could not sleep the whole night.... and when I woke up this morning, I feel my whole body ache like mad.... Must go see doctor later la.... I suspect its my "annual" fever and flu attack! Aarrgghhhh, I hate being sick.... suppose to bring Oscar to Times Square today for a walk... I think have to cancel la my plan....
