When come to festivals, everyone is looking forward for gathering with friends and relatives where they sit down together and eat together and gossip together but not for me.
All these while, my dearest SIL n family joining us for dinner whatever festival we celebrated whether MIL cook or we go out makan-ing instead of her in-law. She told us that her MIL seldom cooks during festival even on eve of CNY. She has been eating together with us for many many years, lost count. I really don’t have any problem with it, the more the merrier ma…. Rite!
So, last night she came and joins us for dinner as usual. Hubby and I came home late around 7.30pm because we went to buy duck ‘kar liew’. This is requested by MIL and they love to eat duck, so upon reaching home, I saw SIL’s car and I asked hubby, will they start eating already without waiting for us? Hubby told me they won’t la, sure will wait for us one. Sure enough when I get down from the car, I saw them eating happily and I am very very upset and angry too. My unhappiness shown on my face while walking toward dining table and they said the kids are hungry. Yes, I wouldn’t mind if the kids are eating but you all adults are eating too. At least, have a courtesy to call us and tell us, right or not. We are not going shopping and purposely come home late and it’s only 7.30pm not that 8.30pm or 9.00pm.
This Mid-Autumn festival is not happy for me anyway… forget about it la!
When we reached home, that two monster can’t wait to play lantern, actually not the lantern that interest them… it’s the candles. They play happily and we have to clean their mess unhappily… hahahaha
Yes.... I'm still around and i will be updating my blog today onwards. So, please support ya my blogger friends. ^_^
Today, it’s my day… the day I was born 33yrs ago. I remembered my mom jokingly told me that I should celebrate for her instead of me during my birthday coz that time she is at hospital struggling to get me out to this world. LOL!!! Thanks.. mummy!!
So, today I got lots of wishes from sms, FB, email, phone…. whatever communication that can get whole of me.. thanks everyone for your wishes!
I had a good lunch with my colleagues but I have to paid myself as they will only celebrate with me when my boss back on Thursday, late better than nothing, rite!! Hehehe… And I got a bouquet of flower from hubby, thanks hub!!
Just now, I happily go dinner with hubby, ya... only two of us without two monsters around, peaceful dinner huh! And happily hubby drove to the hotel for our dinner; I find something amiss but just walk hand in hand with hubby to the restaurant. The waitress shows us our seat we reserved earlier, upon seating, the waitress asking for the membership card to enjoy the 50% discount. I grab my handbag and look for my wallet…. OH SH*T!!!! My wallet missing, so I asked the waitress whether we still can enjoy the discount without the membership card, no.. no way coz it’s the procedure that I have to show them. Luckily the monorails station just a stone away from the hotel and I told hubby I will take monorail to office to checkout my wallet. Haizz.. what a forgetful wife that hubby had and really lucky that hubby don’t have to send me back to the office at this peak hour where the road pile up with cars. LOL!!
15mins later I returned to the restaurant with my wallet and show the waitress my membership.. oh ya.. and the complimentary cake as well. Half way enjoying the dinner, got a call from MIL saying that Sidney having fever and vomiting. Hubby quickly asked for the bill, gets our cake and rush home.
Although it’s a rushing dinner, forgetful wife and sick daughter at home, I will enjoy my birthday very much and I can still have many.. many.. many birthday to celebrate, rite!!
Today, after sending my kids to school and hubby to work, I became a delivery girl for a day and I’m willing to do it coz this is my first time I met them so I’m a bit nervous and my heart is pumping fast as if I’m meeting up my first love, LOL!!
This lady is very well known to all of you especially for bento lover, she is quite a established supplier of bento stuff, ya.. it’s Chooi Peng. This is my first time meeting her, we did not chat much coz I went there to collect my Pineapple Tart that I ordered from Miche. If I still remember, I think I only speak few word with her, ie. Hi, Thank you, Sorry to trouble you, Bye… ya… that it. Really paiseh ya, CP. Hope that we can have yum char session to talk more instead of these few words only. J
So, after collecting my thing from her, I proceed to second point where I would be meeting up another blogger mummy. She gave birth to twin baby boys and she is one of the supermom to me. Guess who?? Ya.. it’s Chinnee, really nice meeting you. You still look so sweet although you did not comb your hair, LOL! I tell you, her twin is really super cute, feel like wanna cubit them but don’t dare la… mummy is there watching. We had a nice chat together with her friend Audrey, really nice meeting you guys. Chinnee told me that today she will be baking, so I stayed a little longer doing KPC. After, she finished baking first round I’m about to go and I managed to take few of her cookies that she just baked. It’s really yummy!!
Thanks Chinnee for the cookies, also thanking CP’s colleague for bringing the tart all the way from Malacca and finally thanks Miche for the crunchy and extra ingredient of Pineapple Tarts, it’s yummilicious.
I’m back from company incentives trip. Total of 38 people going in two VIP coaches and we headed to Singapore. So, this year I’m not celebrating Dong Zhi with family for the first time.
I’m tired as I walked too much when we were in Singapore. As you know, if follow series tour, we have to get up early and back to hotel at late night. Although this is series tour but overall, this is very enjoyable tour, we really have fun there. On the first day we reach Singapore, we check-in into the hotel, then we rush to a short shopping at Bugis, as it was just a walking distance from the hotel we stayed. Then we met for dinner. After dinner, we were ferry to Orchard Road for heaven shopping. It was Saturday and the whole Orchard was so crowded, everywhere is people. Then we make our own arrangement back to hotel; so I called her and meet up with her. Second day, we went o Sentosa Island for a half-day tour and then proceed to our office at Sentosa for a short presentation on the resort. After that we headed to Singapore Flyer, then Duwk tour and finally open top bus ride. The last day, after lunch we headed back to our homeland.
I’m upset becoz my son not missed me at all. The three days away from home, I did not receive a call from them and I did not call home too, expensive ma!!! :P
I’m going again to Singapore this Friday as this was planned earlier before I gotto know that the company is organizing a incentives trip to Singapore. So, I go there twice and spend twice and the exchange rates 2x higher than us. Everything double up hah…. LOL!!
Last but not least, my family and me here to wish everyone here Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!
Since my maid is here, although she is slow with her work but I got plenty of time with kids and hubby, furthermore, lesser yelling now, become more lovely mother and wife LOL!!
So, last weekend I prepared breakfast for kids and hubby, well for the kids one it’s a bit disappointed coz the eggs I’m using too small for the mould so it’s very deformed as well as the sausages is too huge so when I cut it, it’s like really out of shape. Well the kids like it so much and asked me to prepare again next time.
After the breakfast, they had Ribena ice pops which they waiting eagerly since Friday night. Then they had it again on Sunday which was mango flavour which I fresh squeeze from the mango I bought from supermarket.
They are looking forward for coming weekend to see what surprises I give them again LOL!
Last weekend after Sebastian’s music class, we go shopping at 1U only him and me. Hubby was away overseas, and I left Sidney and maid at in-law house. So I can enjoy my shopping with Sebastian.
Was looking for swimsuit so I can wear it during our Langkawi trip this month end. While I was trying swimsuit with Sebastian together in the fitting room, he looked at me, as I was half naked only wear bra n panty.
Then he said “Mummy, why your tummy like old woman” he actually said it very loud in the fitting room, I really don’t know outside got people waiting but I asked him to lower his voice when talking to me in fitting room. At that moment, my heart sank and I just want to bang myself onto the wall. Uuuwaaaaaaaaa!!!!
I really wanna get rid of my sagging and ‘choa pei’ tummy. How????? Go for tummy tuck but I scare. Whatever is it from today onwards, I will watch out my diet and do more exercise.
Got good news from my agent, my new maid is coming on 9 Sep and I’m so excited about it but on the other hand I’m worry too.
This is my second time getting maid, first one was with us for 3yrs. Now I’m back to 3yrs ago with so many questions popping out in my mind. Maybe listen to too much complaint about the maid recently around me and this make me worry. I’ve even drafted the new schedule for the new maid to follow.
Heard from some of my friend they have to wait for few months to get new maid some even can’t give exact date coz now Indon maid is going to HK, Taiwan, Singapore and even Middle East as they pay higher compared here. But I’m lucky that I’m don’t have to wait long to get the new maid, is less than two months.
Pray that this maid won’t give us so many problems.
What a bad day!! My 7yrs old washing machine finally knocks out half way washing all the clothes. So I have to go back to old days without washing machine… using hand : ( My whole body aching after few washes, haizzz… getting old liao.
This weekend must go and shop around for canggihness washing machine… : P
Updates: After taking few days of MC, dunno how and only god knows, our washing machine started to work again :) anyhow, still have to look around for new one, incase she decided to take long leave again.. :P
How we spend our school holidays? Our initial planned was going to Malacca to visit n stay at my friend house (free stay, free meals everything free except petrol n toll – am I rite!) but it was called off due to hubby outstation trip, so we heading to North instead which is Penang. Hubby was in Ipoh then Penang.
I drove all the way from KL to Penang with three monkeys and my mom. Luckily they did not make a big fuss during the journey to Penang, if not I will throw them one by one out of the car. It’s quite tiring driving alone and I hope I did not get summon(s)… hehehe
It was raining when we reach Butterworth and the rest of the days were hot. Did not go anywhere on first day, rest n relax at aunt house. On 2nd day, we planned to go Bukit Bendera (more than 10yrs did not go there) but the cable car was closed so we head to Batu Ferringhi. At night was at Gurney Drive and heading back to Butterworth. 3rd day preparing to return KL and before heading back we went to my late grandfather house.
It’s was a short trip but the kids enjoyed.
After the madness that I’m going thru for the past three weeks without maid, finally we have decided to get new maid. I’ve thinking for so long whether to get one or do it all by myself. I’m telling myself that I can do it even without maid, but I found out that my temper is getting bad to worst since the maid left.
I’ve been yelling from my room to the kitchen and from the store room to the bathroom just can’t stop yelling like a mad woman in the house. If you were to stay at the same condo with me, I think you could hear this mad woman yelling every night till 10pm when the monkeys go to sleep.
Even my hubby complain about me, he said he rather come home late than hearing me yelling like mad woman. So, can you imagine how worst am I?
Last Friday nite, I called her few times, she did not pick up my calls and she even switched off the phone. Then the next morning I tried again, and the phone totally off can’t even get thru. After that by noon when the flight departs from her kampong, I called up the airlines to check whether she did on board and NO… this passenger did not check-in, so I know the answer that she won’t be back.
After that I called up my agent to inform him that my maid did not turn up which she supposed to be and my agent told me that he will inform his agent in Indonesia to call my maid to reconfirm that she won’t be back so I can make a report to cancel her work permit… etc.
At the first place, if she knows that she won’t want to continue, why the heck she agreed to continue. If she told me she do not want to continue then she can have all her salary bank in to her. Such a stupid maid, rather lose the balance of her salary with me.
So, now I’m officially a maid to my beloved family.
I’m really a forgetful mom and also wife, every time sure kena from hubby when he reminded me to remind him on some important thing. And I have one forgetful son at home too. o.O
For the past week since no maid I felt more absentminded. Every Thursday, Sebastian got gym class so he will wear his Sport’s wear. Last week he wore his school uniform coz I totally forgot and he only reminded me when we are on the way to his kindy and he ask me “Mummy, what day is today?” So, I told him “It’s Thursday”, and then he replied back “How come you din change Sport’s wear coz I got gym today”….. in my mind saying “Oh sh*t!!” and replied him “Oppss!! Sebastian, so sorry, mummy forgot about it, please explain to teacher saying mummy forgot already, ok!”
Today, it’s happen again, he asking me same question and I have same answered for him. Then he said “Mummy, why you every time forget… forget… forget one” O.O I told him that he also very forgetful and only told me at very last minutes.
Another incident happen last week, Sebastian reminded me to buy one fruit to bring to school as teacher wanna teach them on fruit. So, I said ok and I totally forgot about it until the following day on the way to In-law house, Sebastian quickly stand up and ask me did I buy fruit for him to bring to school? I silent for a second, and answer him that I’m going to market now and buy it, so I asked him what fruit he need to bring. He told me Papaya, so I ask hubby quickly make a turn to market to buy papaya. *pheewwwwww*
Hhmmm…. Need to ask hubby to buy Ginkgo for me already : P
Thanks a lot for all you advise.
I’m getting better now after blasted it out yesterday and today. So, from now on, I will not get involve on the maid issue again. They insist to get back the old maid, go ahead and please don’t come and complaint to me at the end of the day. That’s it.
I just got back home from company dinner and clubbing. Our company is organizing a Thank you / Appreciation Dinner at the hotel nearby our workplace. The buffet serving at the hotel is very lousy, although all foods look yummy but it’s tasteless except for the Char Kuay Teow. After dinner, few of our colleagues suggested to go for a drink, so I joined them since I still in bad mood at that moment. We went to Borneo Baruk Club behind the hotel where we had our dinner. The club is not crowded maybe it’s still early and abit boring in that club, maybe no leng jai…. LOL!!
I’m so full now!!! Just came back from Mid Valley where I had dinner at Tony Roma’s with my buddies. Did not bring my kiddos along, left it with my mum so I can have a peaceful dinner without any yelling and pulling my hair. LOL!!! Oh ya… thanks for the dinner ya, buddies!!!
I’m going to turn 32 soon…… ya soon…… one more day, I’m turning 32, I just can’t wait!!! Hehehe…..
So, don’t know what hubby will get me for my birthday. He is a bit “kayu”… so I don’t think he will surprise me with anything, unless I tell him what I want. What he normally does is, just bring me out for dinner.
