My Weekend

Yeap, every weekend I must have one weekend post. As what I posted earlier, my day started with a blunder and luckily, it ended up well.

Woke up no breakfast and hubby still sleeping like a p*g, so I have decided to take Oscar out for breakfast. Took him to our usual restaurant to 'ta pau' and walked over to get some bread in King's. Then Oscar spotted something he like very much.... A birthday cake; not any other birthday cake but a birthday cake with 'Lightning MacQueen' jelly on it.... the picture caught his attention instantly and my boy stared at the cake like he hasn't ate for ages. Aiyor, I wanted to buy that cake but it was a 1.5kg cake; how to finish? So I told Oscar I will go get it for him next week. So, I must go to the cake house to order one special one for him within this few days. I really don't want to disappoint him.

Then, we head home after 'ta pau' and ate lunch with daddy (yes, woke up after I came back grrr). The gas came and I have to do the usual stuff, boil water, sterilise Oscar's bottles and boil herbal tea.

Then we all zzzzz cos tired ma....

Sigh, what else, get the stuff ready for dinner lor. Tonight we had western food ha ha... Again another round of wash up and after that, relaxing time......

I like weekend. Very relaxed and not so tense... but since yesterday, my right arm is very stiff and occasionally very painful... Oh no, don't tell me its osteoporosis ah...

Pls Help



** I want to post this pic next to my side bar. How ah? Anyone can help me? I tot I can manage this page with the new blogger, but, I am WRONG! sienzzz

No Mood Sunday

Grrr, I hate days like this! Woke up this morning feeling tired despite of one un-interupted sleeping session.

Then, head to the kitchen only to realised that I ran out of gas........... so? And tot bread will do la... NO!!!!! I even ran out of bread.... @#$%$#@

So, I have called SOS (the gas delivery man la) and its been 1hr already... still no sign no picture! Hubby slept late last night cos he want to finish some work so now still zzzzzzzzzz in lala-land..

Now, we have one grumpy mommy and one part hungry kid who have already asked to be fed with 'maggi mee' already. What a day..... and its just the beginning.... SIENZ!

Went out to get some groceries today and noticed these cute little ice-cream and looks very yummlicious too.......


*Wall's Moo-moo cookies Ice-Cream mooo



Then after dinner tonight, me and mom went out for another round of shopping and notice these little mooncakes. It says that its imported from Hong Kong. Lokes lovely but not too sure about the taste. There are three flavours altogether; Lotus, Chocolate & Pineapple... (pineapple mooncake? eeeee nice meh?)

Oscar's Bicycle

Hubby bought this bicycle last year as Oscar's birthday present. Oscar rode it only once and he dare not ride it anymore cos careless mommy let Oscar fell down.... Poor boy is very traumatise therefore it was put at one side to rot!!

Then recently, I took it out from mom's place and Oscar was very surprised... and he climbed on and ride on it without hesitation. Then I took it home so that Oscar will ride it as and when he like.... We can't go to the playground that often so I let Oscar ride it inside the house. Of course I cleaned the wheels la...

* One happy boy....

Depression

I was lucky enough not to suffer from post natal depression despite of Oscar being not well during his first few days out from the hospital and my stiches 'there' is extremely painful! And I have to go back to the gynae to check what went wrong with his 'jahitan'!! And the lucky part is also beause my mom was around to assist and I can talk and chat with mom during nights which I cannot catch a single wink! My mom is the best.... I remember the first night was the toughest cos Oscar was crying non stop the whole night and the whole family (yes, my confinement month was spent at my mom's house, no pantang-lalang la). Then my dad came and took over cos mom have to make milk and brother have to do silly face to entertain Oscar.. me, in a corner crying cos I dont know what to do... Lucky for me they are all there to support.

I think we women are most vulnerable after birth. Ok, before birth also very vulnerable cos hormone all screwed up and requires 100x more attention then normal not preggie days!

I think to myself that my sis in law who gave birth recently is suffering from post natal dep.Well, who wouldn't cos she wanted a boy and WAS told IS a boy when she went for scanning during her end first trimester, then the aminio test revealed that its a girl! You disappointed or not? Their second child age gap is 10 years and sis in law is already 40 years old... so they wanted a boy very badly... 1st and 2nd child also girl... so 3rd child tot boy very happy when they told us.... mana tau... doctor so cheh kai wan.. not sure dont tell ma right or not?

SIL went to gave birth a month ago and cos is C-sec, she removed her falopian tube as well.. malas contraceptive la... Then she was discharged from the hospital 3 days later and she went home lor... We went to visit her on the following week and to our utmost surprised, she was out, working!!! She came back later and I asked where she went she said to the office.... cannot tahan at home cos very hot!!! Eh, house all fully air-conditioned la... where got hot!!! How can you go to work some moe not wearing long sleeve and socks and out in the open?? Me not very pantang but, at least until the 12th day la... then what about bonding with your new baby? She told me on the third day after discharge she already go back to work... Sei mou... and my BIL just kept quiet... why can't he stop her from going?? Don't he know that this will have bad effect on his wife when she is old later??? Where is the 'blain' (brain)?

SIL is always not around to jaga baby cos got confinement lady but still no good for baby la... And last week was baby's full moon... We do not expect eleborate food spread or tera tera makan session but at least just call us to inform us... Got makan or not never mind la... But, they just kept quiet and pretend like its just like any other day.... I mean, why la... Dont understand wor... and SIL also ah, I can see her face like not excited about this new baby....

Sigh, don't know la... Suffering from depression or what? My BIL actually must play a role telling her its ok and ask her to rest more.. right or not? Will go visit again this weekend...

Hubby Away

To some of my close friends, they already know that hubby will be away next month for a few days for his annual 'Off Day'... Yes, he has his annual off days (2 - 3 days) to be spent with his pig and dog friends... Few years ago they went HK but then later when everyone became daddy, they post poned their trip every time... now they (the pig and dog friends) confirmed a trip already!!! And they are going to Phuket.... relax wor they said...

Then, some of the wifes...cannot trust their hubbies wor... called me to ask me why I allowed hubby to go Phuket.. In fact these wifes ah, they quarreled and fight wih their hubbies over this trip. They were telling me ah, go Phuket sure go hanky panky wan... dont let yr hubby go jek..

Aiyo, I told them ah, if hubby want hanky panky ah, no need to buy air tic to go la, here in KL also can la... Betul tak? Well, I am now only speaking on my own behalf, I have trust in our marriage and also my hubby so I am sure that this trip is purely for fun for those guys. So no need to freak out la.

Sometimes, I felt that in a relationship, if we do not have trust, we will not have anything. I am not like those wife who they will got through their hubby's wallet the moment their hubby walked into the showers or purposely said that the mail man did not send the mails so no credit card bills... whereas, the wife themselves already got hold of the bills 7 ealry 8 early!

I do not want to worry about my hubby on all these nonsense la. Seriously, if hubby want to have affair I also cannot do anything... but is it worth it or not... Don't talk about the marriage la... the SON.... So, what do you all think? Am I insane or I really don't care about what my hubby do outside? Care to share your comments with me?

(P/S: eh, don't get me wrong ah, i am NOT having marriage problems ah.. i am a happily married woman with a wonderful hubby (occasionally will drive me up the wall) and a cutie pie son..... I love my family)

Do you spend enough time with yr kids?

I was thrown this question when I chatted over the phone with one of my best friend... She has a son and she works 9 - 5 and she does a master programme after work in town... She complains to me that she has no time for her son and she feels very guilty about it. I told her to stop studying cos she has to sacrifice for her son but she woke me up... she said we must always up-keep our selves with knowledge, whether we use it or not is another issue. No harm earning ourself another recognition or 'sand paper'... My friend is going through all this studying is because she said in her office, she will have no chance in promotion already cos if the company promote her it is either to the boss level or promote her as partner of the company. So she wanted a raise in her salary cos she and her hubby just bought another property... therefore, she will use this to tell her boss that now she is capable of handling the company's overall accounts... asking for pay increase wor.... Then back to the earlier issue... no time for her son.. cos one will lead to another, study now, later increase in salary, then more responsiblities, then where do you find time??

I wanted to take up a part time course early last year cos hubby took back alot of info from one college.. well, people like me no chance to study till Masters or Honours or etc, so must try to find time to take up part time course lor... Then work load in office begun to take the all the energy out of me and Oscar needed more attention. Everyday after work, I will rush over to mom's place to fetch Oscar. Then the usual ooking, washing up and occasionally I will help hubby with his work... so where do I find time for part time study?

Now that I have more control in my time, I was mentioning it to my friend that I intend to study too. Maybe a short course say for 18 months and see how it goes... Who knows, I might earn myself a nother 'sand paper' hehe... but what about Oscar, will I find time for him anymore? I dont want to miss out on his growing up stage now cos I know I will never be able to rewind time and enjoy them again..... Ok, this is taking too much of my energy, time for a KIT KAT!

a) Start by waking up 30-mins late............
b) Went to your favourite stall to get breakfast only to realised that they are not open today....
c) Was stuck in a horrible jam despite of paying a hefty amount of toll...
4) Arrived at the office only to realised that we might be in deep deep and hot hot oil with one of our customer...
5) Got to know that yr son is still not well and your are so heart sick looking at his little body became thin in only 2-days...

Well, the above 5-ways is how I STARTED MY DAY!! Ahhh, I usually look forward to weekends especially this weekend cos I am taking mom out for shopping and lunch... My mom wanted to eat at the Dragon-i in MM.

But, when I woke up this morning and I tot to myself "eh... clock spoil or wat? how come 6 am oni the sky so bright wan...?" then hubby said... eh, today you on leave ah? yes then sleep somemore la... then i said "still early... another 15mins oni i wake up... hubby said eh but now already 7.10am wor.... me, wa... s**t!!! sprung up from bed and brush teeth, shower, change and woke Oscar up......

While dring to my mom's place, I tot of stopping by to one of the stall to get some chi cheong fun but that stall is not open today!!! eeeeee-ri-ta-ting ar not??? Then quickly drop off oscar at my mom's place and asked mom to monitor oscar today cos still a bit not well today... hope will be better later when i fetch him later......

Then stopped by to get some buns and hit the road cos its already 8am!!! Then ah, I paid $1.60 to escape a horrible jam (if on sundays, from my mom's place to office is only 15 mins) but on mondays to saturdays, from my mom's place to office is 1hr!!!! die ar not? So, I rather pay to avoid stress everyday.... but, today i paid and i get stressed!!! Maximum!!!! The jam was like... no end and I was like... eh, suppose to be smooth ma, how come today so jam wan??? Grrrrr...

Arrived at office on the dot!! Laundryamah was already enjoying her KOREAN DRAMA for breakfast already... huh? Never heard of this kind of breakfast ah, he he can click and ask her... Nice wor she said...

Then discussed about our problematic customer and I was like .... aiyer, dim hou? ngo dei yew lam pan fatt to solve lei kor problem wor... so think think think and till now (as I am typing this post)... we still have not come to a conclusion yet... Lei wa dim hou??

So.... you see, do you think my day can get any better than this? Well, we will just see about that tonight cos hubby said he will come back early today to bring us out for dinner... see how la, if ocsar still sick... stay at home lor.... Have a Nice Weekend Everyone! Thanks for 'reading' my rants, grunts, grumbles etc etc etc..................

My son is sick

Oscar is not well today. Mom didn't call me at work cos she's scared she'll interupt my work. She gave Oscar barley and also some old medicines.... Fever and flu... come and go. In fact, last night I noticed Oscar didn't sleep well but I tot it might be too hot or something....

When I reached home, I see my poor little baby lying on the couch with his blankie... broke my heart altogether. I am suppose to cook 'Nam Yue Fried Chicken' but decided to postponed it cos have to take Oscar to the doctor. Then forgot that the doctor closses early nowadays... So my poor boy have to 'tahan' a bit. No mood to cook already so me and hubby is eating noodles now.... I think he can tahan... he is my little champion. I love you Oscar.

Bangun Pagi... Gosok Gigi...


(oops.... 18 SX)

its like every kid must know how to sing this song...

"bangun pagi, gosok gigi,
cuci muka, pakai baju,
makan roti, minum susu,
pergi sekolah, suka hati!"

hehe, this morning oscar tried brushing his teeth with a new toothpaste... and daddy standing beside him... oscar love his brush teeth session every morning... cos this is the time he can play with his toothpaste and also gargling! dont know what so funny about gargling wor...

My Oscar at School

Today I went off early because I wanted to take Oscar to visit a kindergarten. This kindergarten was recommended by a friend of mine whom her son studied at their Cheras branch. When we arrived, the school was very quite as all the students went home and only 3 students stayed back for day care.

Hmm, the outlook of the school is not what I expected as I expected a bungalow or a building of its own, but its a corner unit of a terrace house. The location is quite strategic as it is quite near my office and my mom's place. We went in to meet up with the principal and she is a very nice lady in her mid thirties I guessed. She is in-charged of 2 branches; this branch and the branch in Cheras. Chatted with her for about 45 mins and my Oscar was happily playing with a small girl. This little girl is waiting for her mommy to come at 6pm.

Quite impressed with the overall teaching method. This is a multi-lingual school; meaning, classes are conducted in all 3-mediums, English, BM and Mandarin. I have checked out another famous kindergarted near my mom's place too, which they emphasize in English and Mandarin only for childred age 5 and above and have to pay additional xx amount.

This Saturday I am taking Oscar to visit another school so we'll see how it goes. Oscar sure enjoys himself today for a short period of 1 hr.. hehe, I hope my little champion will not have any problem when he REALLY goes to school next year. I saw my little boy sitting on the little chair and table and he was reading the flashcards lying on the table... I suddenly have a vision; My son is going to school........

??Why??

See, I changed my template again. Not that I eat-full-nothing-to-do but my previous template screwed up a bit on the side bar and I could not get it back! Sigh... I hope I dont do anything funny or 'smart' this time.... really sad cos I am not tech savvy!

My Quite Saturday

Last Saturday was like any other Saturday. We woke up and had brunch at our favourite Chicken Rice Shop... Not the Yellow Chic Signboard Chicken Rice Shop but the one that serves 'kampung chicken' in Taman Connaught, Cheras. Love their chicken and their rice is so soft... even Oscar loves it. After lunch we head home and watch tv and I did some house work.... then zzzz. Woke up and pack our bags cos we are going to my mom's place for dinner. Hubby had his usual badminton game on Saturday and I took the car and Oscar home to mom's place. Mom cooked my favourite 'sambal ikan bilis'... aiya, no picture cos I terus 'hantam' when I saw it...

Oscar refuse to sit on his car seat therefore, he settled next to me.
Took this shot in front of the traffic light on my way to my mom's place.
