Dear all,
Gong Xi Fa Cai. Here wishing you good health and a prosperous new year!!!
Firstly congrats to Jannie!!! Take care of yourself ah....take it easy!! =)
Sorry all have not been posting for a while...been really busy with work and also as Jes mentioned her dad had an operation recently so got to postpone our honeymoon... good news is we've confirmed our flights to kiwi island for March.... so really looking forward to it!! =)
Also encountered a number of hiccups for V'Day..firstly it was the venue.... i made a reservation in January and that weekend before V'Day they called me and said sorry no more alfresco sitting because they gave up the seats to those who went down to make payments for the v'day menu...if they have told me i had to make payments in january i would have gone down to do so... anyway they manage to offer an alternative....next was the flowers.....i was SHOCKED when i saw the bouquet of flowers.... the florist actually delivered the wrong bouquet!! Can't believe it.. hehe.... and lastly was the dinner itself.. we waited 40 minutes for them to serve dessert... also the kept serving the same dish twice.. and had to carry the food around asking if they have already served them.....lolz kinda drama ah
We only started our spring cleaning last weekend so we were still cleaning on the eve till about 2 am..... it was tiring but feels good after that.. hehe we went out to buy some flowers.. got a good deal as they are closing soon so want to clear as much as possible... a bunch of 3 "Change luck" bamboo costs 13.80.... it went for $1....heheh... we have also started giving ABs liao...big hole in the pocket... anyway all have fun visiting ah

bear> sorry to hear about your pig....take it easy.... hope you are feeling better now..

DH,
many ask me the same questions.U can actually ask the flt attendant on ur flt too!
Anywayz,windows shades up during take off & landing so tt pax can see anything unusual happening outside & can alert the crew eg engine fire.
Bags has to be under the seats infront of u so tt in case of an evacuation,it may not be an obstacle,seats upright so tt the pax seating behind u will be able to get out quickly in case of emergency.These r jz basic precautions.
All due to safety reasons.

u proved my point agn on why i dont dine out on V'days etc.
Many restaurants r unprepared,inexperienced to handle such a demand.They look very unprofessional.I feel tt in sg,our service industry is a shame.

DH,
most ppl in the service industry dont get paid well so no one wanna be in tt line so when it gets bz,they r short handed lor.
Think there's a stigma in sg for being a waiter.Plus in sg,we dont practise tipping so waiters dont gv a damn.I'm sure u knw in NYC,we gotta tip for everything.Different lor.

Not to mention e kids loh... Both sides got so many kids!!!! AHHHH!!!!!!

Then I said I get bonus already gave u money liao. So next time I get bonus dun give u money, I put them all in ur AB loh. Then she said, "Need to be so calculative meh?" Who's being calculative here???!!!!

Jannie, u know wat i will say.. but i think its ok to drink cold water.. did ur gynae say u can't drink them?? my mum told me her gynae said only one cup of coffee max a day but she still continued to drink 3x a day.. in the end me and my sis also turned up ok.. wahaahha... Physical signs like spotting i believe, but cannot eat this cannot eat that is rubbish... we shd always eat everything in moderation.
DH, orh.. so we are to avoid that restaurant issit?
Aeris, u not the only one... i m currently facing some personal probs hence not able to buy my mum any new yr goods. She complained to my sis abt it... but i gave her $200 for angbao... dunno lah.. lucky my mum dun dare to say in front of me.. cos since young she said that it is rude to discuss abt ang baos in front of the person that gave it to u.

Hey guys! Thanks for the well wishes...
Jannie, didn't do anything with hb... he almost didn't buy me a cake cos he said it was CNY no shops will be opened.. only got it for me when my MIL said the bigger shops are opened. No presents, no nothing.. sigh...
Fastfood and tidbits are ok in small amts lah... u need to eat a balance diet... some ppl say pregnant women cannot eat too much fish cos of the high mercury content.. can lead to foetal brain damage.. however, a study published just last wk showed that mothers that ate fish during pregnancy had smarter babies.. the fish they ate must be high in omega-3 fats. again, eat everything in moderation.. best is if u speak to ur gynae abt such things.. ur hb will be convinced by professionals.
Sue, only CNY u will see such weirdos so count ur lucky stars tat u dun see them often! heehee...
Anise, so fast wanna throw in the towel? why u wanna tender? just becos of ur cols? surely u can overcome that!!! wat make u so sure the next place u choose won't encounter the same probs? Ang baos ah? i gave away abt $700... bulk went to the parents lor.. imagine this, i didn't visit anybody on my parents side and already $700 gone liao.. sigh.,. next yr will be a bigger hole in my pocket.

Anise, so fast wanna throw in the towel? why u wanna tender? just becos of ur cols? surely u can overcome that!!! wat make u so sure the next place u choose won't encounter the same probs? Ang baos ah? i gave away abt $700... bulk went to the parents lor.. imagine this, i didn't visit anybody on my parents side and already $700 gone liao.. sigh.,. next yr will be a bigger hole in my pocket.

I posted this last year & jz a gentle reminder to us women here.Here it is agn for those of us who may need it,now.
Just sharing.........
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE...
A set of screwdrivers,
a cordless drill, and
a black lace bra...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE...
One friend who
Always makes her Laugh...
And one Who lets her cry...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE...
A good piece of furniture
not previously owned by
Anyone else in her family...
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE
Eight matching plates,
Wine glasses with stems,
And a recipe for a meal that will
Make her guests feel honored.
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE...
A feeling of control over
Her destiny...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
How to fall in love
Without losing herself...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
HOW TO QUIT A JOB
BREAK UP WITH A LOVER
AND CONFRONT A FRIEND WITHOUT RUINING THE FRIENDSHIP...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
When to try harder... and
WHEN TO WALK AWAY...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
That she can't change
The length of her calves,
The width of her hips, or
The nature of her parents...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
That her childhood
May not have been
Perfect...but;
Its over...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
What she would and
Wouldn't Do for love or more...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
How to live alone...
even if
She doesn't like it...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
Whom she can trust,
Whom she can't,
And why she shouldn't
Take it personally...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
Where to go...
Be it to her best friend's kitchen table..
Or a charming inn in the woods...
When her soul needs soothing.
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
What she can and can't accomplish
In a day...
A month...
And a year...

sorry da jie but i have not forgot......been really busy lately and furthurmore my laptop got problem and desktop also got problem...........so busy at work and home.......
any of the dates should be fine as i have not heard from my boss about any overseas trip in march.
will go source for some nice "zhi cha" place but satisfaction not guaranteed LOL
Tea, your knee injury still bugging you ah, better stay away from serious sports or strenous sports for awhile bah.
jannie, i think tidbits can eat abit but you got to know the limits coz my best fren also got eat tidbits....actually she eat more of the forbidden stuffs then the good stuffs hehehehe
i also spent ard 650 for my ang baos. like what wifey say about mil, i was quite mad when she told me what mil said. next year im gonna give the same amount again......humph!!
anise, you should really give da jie's advise some thoughts. coz a bond of 18months is not consider long but it can take stop you from jumping on any good opportunities along the way.
bear, im sure your mum understand juz that she need to grumble about it to feel "shiok" bah. you know lah, our older generations tend to grumble alot but half of the time is juz for the sake of grumbling.

Hubby knows the chef, so basically we just sat the counter and the chef will prepare the food. we just eat. didnt have to place orders.

Hullo... been busy with assignments.. just handed up a major one... need slp man.. slpt 8 hrs in the past 2 days.. sigh.... can finally rest...
Jannie, everybody will be anxious for u one... but u must not let their concerns override common sense.. I think even ur gynae will agree with me, eat in moderation and not exclude food from ur diet.. best is to check with ur gynae wat u can eat.. and make ur hb sit in with u... ya my hb nv celebrate with me.. sigh... don't wanna talk abt it...
Anise, staying late is part and parcel of working mah... who knows, the next co u join might expect u to stay late too. as i mentioned before, those ppl who goes hm on time, i feel, have not enough work to do. Just my tots. Don't give up so easily ok??? and dun go to ur new co with the same expectations u have of ur old one..
Tea, ur knee ok???
Dajie, my knees are old prob... have had knee pains since 11 yrs old.. went to physio too but they can't do anything cos my joints are too loose, hence the pain. so that means u dun have to fly tmr?? heehee...
WX, i m allergic to a lot of things... chicken, pork, beef, salmon, squids, prawns... but i still eat them.. so dun worry lah... where are we gg to eat???
