Precious

Will be visiting E next Tuesday and eye centre on Wednesday and back to school for our yr end meeting on Thursday and that is the end of my precious year end hols. ;)

Hopefully my little precious is growing well and I am finally able to sleep last night have 2 nites of sleepless nights. Still gets hungry at odd timing of the day- like around 11 plus last nite when hubby was snoring away in dreamland. I thought the Milo would do the trick but I guess 1 cup of Milo is not enough.. Hehe... Woke up a little later today, maybe to catch up on my lost sleep for the past 2 nights. The weather was cool and nice but would usually rain thunderstorm in the afternoons.

Time just flies... the thought of going back school sends a little tingle down my spine.. I guess I did not have enough rest this holiday.. well, who has enough rest during the holidays? And school will start the following week after that. Haven't got my hair cut and thinking of how school is going to be when it starts. Afterall, i will be teaching a new batch of students and new syllabus and new way of doing things. Just hope that 2007 and the years after are beautiful, sweet and successful for hubby and I. ;)

Must be the hormones

I read an article regarding how a couple's relationship went downhill just 12 years into their marriage... so sad. As usual, it's the man who has a change of heart and the wife is simply helpless and desperately needing good advice from a counsellor...

I suppose it is only normal to turn my attention to my own marriage even though I've only been married for 2 years plus... asked hubby the stupidest question if he will have a change of heart one day too. Well, he gave a pretty safe answer - NO and went to work. Guess he must be thinking that it's my hormones acting up again.. nothing better to do during the hols and thinking of all the bad things... Guess i'll need to have more faith in him and confidence in myself. Heh!

Ah boy

Juz chat wif ah boy online...he is enjoying himself overseas... so good!

and he'll be visiting Las Vegas this coming weekend... *SO envious* especially when I can't traavel now.. sob sob..he can get to see and visit the casinos too. ;)

He is asurvivor... he can go anywhere as long as there's bread, pizza and all the ang moh eateries...

Hope he has an enjoyable time there... take more pictures and upload them soon.

Hubby

He has been the sweetest to me ever... not only does he buy breakfast every morning, he tries to chauffer me wherever I need to go. Sometimes I get so lazy because of that. I don't want to leave home without him driving me around. haha... But i know that I'd need to get back on my own when school starts. Thank goodness, i still have about 2 to 3 weeks of enjoyment.

Since we can't travel this holiday, we took this opportunity to rest during the weekends and take things slower than usual. I guess holidaying is out for the next 2 years till the little precious is about 2 years or older before we bring him along for travel.

He told me he wasn't really excited about being a dad... well, I guess he is happy about being one but not REALLY excited about it, maybe until he is born. Since I am the one who spends the most time with precious, I feel more excitement than him... I guess I can understand.

We're still scouting for suitable names for our precious and hopefully it's a beautiful name, as beautiful as him. ;)

Wedding plans

Tracie dropped the bomb at me last week when she announced she was getting married next year end. I am very happy and excited for her and this news came as a surprise... never did I imagine her telling me that she is getting married so soon... ;)

We started discussing about wedding plans and gowns and bridal shops.. it was just like when I was getting married... haha.. it seemed like yesterday. We got pretty excited about choosing the right bridal boutique and I introduced mine to hers. But she prefered "B B" to mine... according to her, the designer is still humorous and effeminate as usual. Guess that is just Pin...

I wonder how she'll look like in her gown. Well at least she doesn't need to bother about wedding dinner venue. Just a church ceremony followed by the tea reception. Hehe... so excited for her... cos the feeling was like I was planning for mine. ;)

A close shave

I thought i have forgotten my pw and that this blog is gone for sure... but fortunately, i managed to retrieve the blog on time.. Phew!

I guess it is the hormones acting up during pregnancy. Or maybe i panicked and forgot about everything. Grrr....

so I'm back to biz...

Freedom

At long last, my examination is over! I shall enjoy myself for the next 2 months before the start of a new semester! Hurray!!!

It is time to listen to music (heard that it is good for the BB) and check out websites on maternity clothings and stuff like that. I has been a really long time since I last enjoyed myself by surfing the net and listening to songs and doing my rubber stamping. Unfortunately, gotta give up stamping for a while as it can be very straneous and tiring once I start on a new project.. It is one after another. ;)

Hoping for the best for my results which will be due sometime in late December or early January... well, at the meantime... it is time for the long deserving break and enjoy every minute of it. haha...

Lazy

Have been feeling lazy these past few days... haven't really gotten down to serious revision for my upcoming exams in 3 weeks time! Eek! I think i will start by reading up on all those chapters I missed during assignments and continue with the rest that I have read. Phy was humorous in our last lecture last nite. I guess most of us will miss her lectures - she is ever so cool, knowledgable and "down-to-earth". Haven't seen a linguist speaking in "Singlish" during lectures! Even hubby commented that she is good- she is able to reach out to her masses.

Sis left for Jkt last morning and it's only mum, hubby and I at home. Soon, bro would return (around 8 months later?). By then, there would be an additional member in our family. ;)

Going for the OSCAR test the week after next. Keeping fingers and toes crossed again. Hope everything turns out alright!

Sleepy

Have been feeling sleepy after meals... sounds like an oink oink... but i guess it's the body telling me that I need the rest. The body is working hard after all. The problem is, I don't eat much. After a while, it gets hungry again. *sigh* .. but there is nothing much to eat or to fill my stomach. With the haze, it became worse. I had runny nose that needs rubbing occassionally... itchy.

Hubby went to school to complete some work, leaving me home to rest (wish i could). With the bad weather condition, travelling is cut short or postphoned. Wish the haze will go away soon.. and I mean soon...

Appetite

Did not have a very good appetite these few days.... the things I can't stand are: prawns (surprisingly since they were my favourite), fried or grilled chicken in any form, the stench of oil or grease, plain noodles (yucks!) etc. However, the love for sour and spicy stuff will help to whet the appetite. Although not all sour and spicy stuff taste nice, they are at least a better choice compared to plain and bland food.

I had porridge this morning. However, it wasn't satisfying after the meal. In fact, i felt a little bloated and nauseous. Lunch wasn't any better... MIL cooked fried Bee Hoon and I squeezed lime over the bee hoon to make it sour-ish. But... I did not have the appetite to eat much... had a kiwi after that.

According to some of the websites I visited, it is pretty normal to feel like how I'm feeling - which is a consolation. Just hope that I get to eat better soon, in weeks to come. I have to drink more water, more warm water.

Hubby said that MIL will be cooking chilli crab for dinner tonite. Just hope that I will appreciate her effort by trying to eat some. If this bad appetite keeps up, I am afraid I will be acting like a spoilt brat who does not seem to appreciate what others are doing for me. But it is really beyond my control... just hope that I don't feel nauseous...

A little one

These few weeks have been very eventful. We are expecting a little one to join our family by next year. We're just keeping our fingers and toes crossed, hoping that this one is a success. So far our visits to E has been alright. So we're hoping for the best.

Recently suffered from having too much wind in the stomach. Hubby has been very kind to make congee for me for 4 mornings... as i wanted food that is warm, unlike bread. So he woke up early every morning to prepare the porridge. Alas, both of us din noe that it could cause wind. I felt bloated and had diarrhoea and felt nausea. Definately not a good feeling. I hope that i will recover soon. Had to be on ML today and tmr... sigh... so much for eating what i wanted.

Hubby was despondent as he was rejected in a recent conference. I tried to cheer him on but, I guess it is always easy to see things from an outsider's point of view. Hope he recovers soon. May his belief and faith be steady as I believe that things will always work out fine. Just need to hopd on to the faith and belief that he can succeed. I suppose need to give him some time to sort it out himself. I believe that he will achieve what he set out to do one day!

Next visit to E is 3 weeks later. I hope that by then, everything looks good and stay good too.
