Merry Merry Christmas...
Sat morning dad sent us to the market to buy the food for tonight's BBQ, then we went to collect my bro's Motorolla V3 and to collect my BenQ Digicam... Yes! I got a digicam liao!!!
For the BBQ, had to force my bro to come... we had cray fish, prawns, chicken wings, sprite and calamansi marinated pork (made by Marizel) and my marinated pork, taiwan sausage, normal sausage.. that's all I can remember. Surprisingly, we finished all the crayfish but not the prawns.. funny right?
Then u know what, my bro was playing with my digicam then he accidentally deleted my photos!!! Ah!!!
Anyway, from my memory, we had many many mahjong sessions.. Sat night, bro stayed over to play Mahjong, we played till 3am in the morning... Then woke up at around 9plus to have breakfast (Sauteed Mushroom, Scrambled Eggs, Hotdog and Bread... Yum Yum) then continued Mahjong again.. hahaha. Played till around 4pm, Dad came to fetch us to granny's house cause Aunt Susan having BBQ session there... Yah... Another BBQ, sian right? But since she invited, not nice to decline so went loh.. Shawn lazy so stayed at home.. After the BBQ, he had a brilliant idea and sms me to say that he wants to go over to my dad's house to play Mahjong... Pengz..
Dad and Bro was okie with the idea, only mum didn't like it cause she keep thinking that I teach my bro Mahjong, "jiao huai ta" Wah Piang...
So we left my two sweethearts at home with Kibbles and enough wet food and left for my dad's place...
I was so tired that I fell asleep even before I could touch the Mahjong Set.. hahah.. Woke up at around 12 am and realised that Hubby was so nice to let me sleep first. Then we played till 5am. hahah Now like Zombie...
Then Monday, same thing.. Played Mahjong after breakfast till evening.. Crazy right... that's how we spent our Christmas for Yr 2005!

Met Up with MumLoveFiFi
So when I was on my way back, hubby needed to go to Watson's to get a Christmas Pressie so I went watson's to buy a bathroom slipper to wear home... Hahahah. U know Bathroom slipper is so Soong right? heheh..
So, wearing this stupid but comfy slippers, we even went Sheng Siong to buy Beef and spaghetti. hgahaha. I practically look like a Ronald MacDonald with the HUGE slippers..
At around 7:15, as arranged, MumLoveFiFi brought Fi Fi here... Fi Fi is a Silky Terrier whom does not have much hair and so she looks skinny. I can see that Maggie really pampers her a lot. Maggie is 22 weeks preggy with a Boy.. so I gave her a low quote also to let her save money for baby.. heheh. Maggie is a very forthright person, she not afraid or shy to say certain things which ppl will feel paiseh one.. heheh
For eg: She say her hubby at times will help her wash her undies and hang but the whole world will be able to see her panties and bra.. when she said this, I saw that Hubby went @@. hehehe. She's just straightforward that's all .. heheh
The good thing was Fi Fi got along very very well with Rosie... They were playing ear biting... wrestling.. FiFi is smaller than Rosie but definitely won't lose in playing.. heheh. Poor Sugar was just standing at the side looking at them play cause Sugar is more dainty then the two Chor Lor girls... hahah. But I'm surprised that Rosie looks as Fi Fi like a Jie Jie... cause FiFi can be chewing her ears, jumping on her but Rosie doesn't bite or snap back at her... She just sat there and let her jump all over her initially... then they both started to wrestle in a very gentle way.. hahah
Think Maggie is very comfortable putting FiFi at our place... She say that she might make it a yearly thing cause her hubby is a Malaysian so every CNY, she will be going back to Malaysia for visits for around 15 days. So every Yr, Rosie will have this Jie Jie over to play with her.
I'm really happy to have found friends like Esther and Maggie that are dog lovers... and I Love Rosie, Sugar and FiFi.
Oh Yah, sms Caslyn last night and heard that Ding Dong's better. No more vomiting. Asked if she was having heat, Caslyn say no leh.. no more drops of blood... Hmmm weird right? But as long as she is well can liao lah.. I just hope that all doggies will have love from their owners and no one abandoned.
++Peace++

Rosie's Portrait
On Dec 17th, I recieved an email from Aunt Suzi. I offered help to distribute the stones to fellow DS members and recieved an email from her.
Contents:
hiya Stephie
Am really appreciative that u offered to help although i know u are veri busy...
My friend is coming tomorrow and should be back in singapore a day or 2...will inform Jean once he goes back to singapore...
Anyway, ur kindness have not gone unnoticed...please accept this gift for christmas..
Thank u veri much...
a.suzi
And guess what... It was with an attachement. When I scroll down, I went @@! Hysterical, crazy ... watever words can describe...
This was what I saw...
It was a portrait drawn by Aunt Suzi as a gift for me.... just because I offered help. I was so touched and also guilty cause I wasn't much help in distributing the stones cause Jean didn't want my involvement.
It all started with my boarding stuffs. Jean wants to board her dogs at my place before and during CNY. So I qouted her $10 per day since its many days and many dogs, all was settled and confirmed but last min she says that she will only be boarding her dogs during CNY and only for 3 days. So I explained that I would have to give her a quote of $11 per day per dog cause I need to be fair to other dog owners also. I am already giving her a lower quote than other doggy owners cause I normally charge $13 per day for a Public Holiday. In the end, she decided to cancel the boarding.
So when I know from Aunt Suzi that I should contact Jean, I called and made some suggestions like we can start a thread for DS members to reply to see where they want to collect the stones and offered my place to be one of the collection point. Finally, she started the thread but did not mentioned anything about my place as a collection point... Hmmm... I also never say much, just keep quiet. I just hope to be able to offer help and make sure Aunt Suzi's effort not wasted. I went to collect my stones and portrait on Monday night after sending Ding Dong home, never say much to her also.. just took my stuffs, thank her and left.. I was so mesmerized by the painting.. Now its safely locked in my wardrobe till I have the time to bring it for framing.. Will post a pic after I frame...
Christmas is coming
Hahah. cause we board Ding Dong and worried that she chews the tree so we thought to only set it up after she goes home... Now that she's home, her fosterer sms me last night to say that she vomited and asked if we fed her any other food but I think for very long and replied no. All this while, I only feed her the Science Diet dry food and lots of water. Nothing else leh.. I feed Rosie the can wet food lah but not to Ding Dong leh.. Sigh... Caslyn says she vomitted brown wet stuff and may be having her heat cause got drops of blood. And she didn't vomit or anything during her stay here. Hmmmm...
Ding Dong grow up liao.. got first heat liao.. why all dogs at my place all so heng will get heat one ah? heheh Am worried about her. Told Caslyn to update me on her condition.
As for Christmas, think nobody will be coming for the BBQ. Sherry will be out to chiong, Esther will be in Malaysia and Matthew has a function to go so think only will have daddy, mummy and GY here for the BBQ.
Boring... okie back to work after 2 days MC of staying at home and rotting... will blog about my boring life again soon..

Summary of My Friday...
So a sleepy me was lying on the mattress when Marizel(standing by the window carrying baby Joy) says "Gong Gong come already". I was lying there and was puzzled.. I even ask Marizel if she saw correctly. Why would Gong Gong come on a Friday afternoon, 1pm?? Its almost telling me that I strike 4D $500, possible but chances are low..
So I asked "U sure?"
But Marizel then said " Yah, I see Gong Gong's car"
So I thought maybe same car but its not daddy's car till she said
"I see Jiu Jiu also"
I went @@!
My bro? What's he doing here? He's considered a tortoise cause he never likes to come out of his shell.
So when Marizel said that, I knew it is really my Dad... But why are they here.
Best part is Marizel said " Oh dun tell"
I was like Huh? why dun tell, Josh is not here... hahaha
My bro meant dun tell me... hahah but too late, I was already at the window... kekeke
It was a surprise Party for me... My Mum was here to cook for me and BY RIGHT, I was suppose to be at work and when I'm home, I would be so surprised that there was a cake and a lot of food for me... It was all planned by my sweet hubby a few weeks ago... yes, u read correctly A FEW WEEKS AGO and I didn't know a single bit...
My family didn't say anything, even my friend didn't leak out anything.. hahahah
My dad, bro and mum went to Seng Siong earlier on to buy all the stuffs like Duck, Coke, Fish Ball, Sotong Ball, Tung Hoon, Cucumber, Chicken Wings... etc.
Few days ago, I saw a name and phone no written behind a piece of paper so I asked hubby who's no is that.. Hubby told me Mdm Chew is the Auntie that sells food downstairs his office.. I even ask how come he got her no? To call her to order food before going down to pick it up? He even said Yes.... And Guess what? Mdm Chew is the Auntie downstairs, yes that's the fact, BUT its downstairs our house whom owns the coffee shop. Hubby ordered Sambal Chilli and Nasi Lemak from her for my birthday...
Hahah everything he told me are all lies to cover for the surprise party.. hahah. On Friday morning, he was msging on his phone so I asked who msg u? He said Matthew, so I asked him how was he coping alone in the office.. He said he's okie.. Then a call came and he was talking to the other party and this was what I heard vaguely ".... Ten Mile ah... ... how much?... $13 plus? Okie loh" And I only realised after that, that he's talking to my Bro whom is at Seng Song Ten Mile Junction.... hahah I very silly hor.. Hubby say A, I believe its A... hhahaha
At night, Esther came with the cake, Matthew came also.. We had a wonderful dinner + a Tiramisu from the cake shop from towner Road. Was so happy.. Blow candles, cut cake with Joshua... He stole the chocolate pieces on the cake!
But on the whole, really had a wonderful Birthday.
I sincerely thank My Hubby!!! Whom secretely planned weeks before. Muacks!
I wanna thank my family for coming over and cooking for me...
I wanna thank Esther for her effort in going to get the cake and walking back to my place in her heels.. heheheh... And also her SPA gift set... and also able to keep it from me for so long even though I msn her everyday.. kekek
I also want to thank Matthew, Dennis and Jonathon for coming for the celebration. I really enjoyed myself very very much!
Summary of My Thursday Night...
It was SIMPLY WONDERFUL, MARVELOUS, EXCITING day!!!!
Okie, it all began with Thursday night... My poor daughter was down with fever and my helper DIDN'T EVEN KNOW!!! Joy woke up around 8 plus and didn't want to sleep so Marizel carried her out and place her in her walker. When I approached her and want to carry her, I felt that her temp was high. When I asked Marizel, she told me " Ah... its because weather cold".. I was like WTF? What has weather cold gotto do with her temp high?
I insisted on taking the thermometer out and tested her temperature... It was a good 38°C!!! Immediately, I got her to pack some stuffs and I rushed Joy to the Doc. Call me a paranoid... I don't like my kids being sick and no one even know about it... Its called NEGLIGENCE!!!
Upon reaching the doc, there was many ppl as Doctor Tan is the Doc on duty that night. The Nurse took her temperature and guess what... within 15 mins (travel time between my house and the clinic plus waiting time), her temperature shot up to 39.6°C!!!
I quickly request the nurse to put the cold plaster on her forehead and request for a dose of Paracetemol but Nurse say cannot give med as she needs doc's instruction...
Shortly, doc ask us to go in even though its not our turn yet.. so nice...
Doc gave a dose of Fever med and cough syrup and ask us to monitor.
So I decided to take Urgent leave to stay at home to look after her at night and on Friday...
Another story begins.. hahahah

Am upset.. Y is life so vulnerable?
Saw on DS that a dog was ran over by a car and needs fosterer urgently so I offered to take her in... Called Angel and say that I can foster her. Angel told me to call Ricky so that he can brief me about looking after an injured dog. Spoke to Ricky and he said that he will bring the dog over once Angel bring her to the Vet. Most prob Vet will discharge her and Ricky will bring her over.
So I prepared myself mentally for the waking up at night, possible of Dog's incontinence and hubby even agreed to do this and support me even though no money can be earned.
We asked for help in resources like Play pen and etc and ppl came and help.
But.....
Just recieved a call from Angel that the dog passed away even before she can reach the vet...
I have a little life in me who's has a little heart pounding and I realised that life is so vulnerable....
Counting Down to my Birthday.... 1 week to go.
But come to think about it, 3 kids by the age of 24, quite okie right? heheh
Actually birthdays are no longer a big issue liao... There is no longer any wish list for my pressies cause I also dun have much close friends... Hahah Dun know when that started but now feel very sian about Bdays..
I'm not single whom can go out and chiong or shopping for bday...
Birthday is another day to spend time with kids and etc...
Feel blessed to have 2 sweet kids with me and a "sweet" hubby whom never fails to piss me off.. hahaha to spend my bday with

My Last Weekend
Its Monday again... Had a kind off long weekend... Didn't have Josh with us on Friday night so time seems to have flew pretty slowly. Okie.. As my Birthday is near, my hubby brought me out for dinner at Fish & Co on Friday night hence my little Joshua had to spend his weekend at Por Por's house.
We had seafood platter for two but Fish & Co at Novena is getting from bad to worse... Food didn't seem very fresh so it was not really nice, hubby agreed on that too.
After dinner, Dennis and Jonathon called. Saying that they are downstair our place and we were like still in Novena Sq. So we said that we'll come back asap and we'll buy dinner for them since they have not eaten and that its Dennis's bday in a few days time. Best part is, there are 2 ATMs in Novena Sq, and coincidentally, both cannot dispense cash... Then what good is an ATM which cannot dispense cash??? So with the left over $18, we decided to just buy the BK and take a cab home.. But since I was craving for Vienetta, we decided to go to Cold Strorage to get those items and swipe my nets card.. heheh (No cash). So we bought 3 cans of Amsterdame and 1 trio Chocolate Moouse cake for Bang and of course my Vienetta.. hehehe ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Saturday was an interesting day as I plan that we "bomb" the house. Am sick and tired of Rosie's constant tick problem. Its not serious at all but it doesn't go away for long. Rosie will have like 1 or 2 ticks found like in 1 week, then after constant checking for few days, no ticks.. then maybe 3-4 days later, found another 1 tick. Can't ticks just get out of my house? Therefore, I decided to bomb the house and evacuate everyone to my mom's place.
We searched high and low at NTUC, Coldstorage for the bombs but non was found... So we decided to call the pet shops to try. US Pet house no stock, found some at Perfect Pets Paradise. The brand is PPP, not sure if it works cause I've always heard like either Mortein Tick and Flea Bomb or Fido is better, never heard of PPP Fogging although PPP stuffs for ticks are good.
So after carrying 5 cans of chemicals home, spending more than $89 hahah (cause couldn't help indulging in pet food Rosie and Sugar), we left the shop determining to kill all ticks, fleas, mosquitoes and etc, whatever pests in the house... hahahah
Side track a bit ah.. I found this at the pet shop... Anyone can guess what is this?
Its.... Jelly for dogs!!! This is another pic of it .
I took all that is left in the shop.. heheh. Cute right? Hope furkids enjoyed that.
Okie, back to the Ticks topic... Hubby was the one whom actioned on the cans of chemicals cause I'm preggy mah.. so cannot inhale this type of stuffs. A lot of preparation work to be done. We wrapped all the cushions and mattress with garbage bags, all soft toys and etc. Then packed Joy's milk and etc. Packed Rosie's toys, Sugar's cage and even dismantle the kitchen safety gate... hehehhe
We closed all windows, evacuated the place while hubby started the fogging. Then I took Sugar and Rosie down with all barang barangs and packed inside daddy's car and we headed for Bukit Batok.
Clever me bought can food, Oats with Beef and Veg for furkids so that we dun have to prepare HCF at mum's place. But the stupid and kiasu me happily bought 4 cans.. hahah thinking not enough. In the end, 1 can is more than enough for the 2 furkids.. still got some left...
At night we played Mahjong (3 legs, Shawn, me and my bro) while Sugar and Rosie played in the kitchen. Surprisingly, they behaved very very well at my mum's place.. No barking at all.. We played Mahjong till near 2am man.. I was so tired that I kept dropping the tiles.. hahah
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sunday woke up very early in the morning cause need to pack, clean up and leave for Market. Sunday went market, didn't buy any groceries.. Lame right? We decided to give Marizel a break and not cook dinner at all... Hahahah. Actually is Hubby a bit tired off Marizel's cooking so decided to eat packed food for a week..... Bad hubby, dunno if he will grow tired of me or not. heheh.
After Marketing, my parents and I went to Hougang NTUC to buy monthly groceries... and you guess how much I spent? $416!!! Wah Piang eh... every month getting higher.. Think bcos of the titbits I bought.hahahah so can't blame anyone ya...
After groceries, carried everything home with Marizel's help. Realise that my house getting smaller or things getting more.. no place to put liao.. think gotto bring titbits to office already... (hahaha excuses)
Anyway, after Jean came with her 3 dogs, the rest of the days was just nua and watch Star Awards....
Than knock out and sleep loh... heheheh
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now coming to Monday, another standard day for me, working. Tonight bringing Joshua to the doc and most prob having KFC for dinner. Josh's coughing is getting bad to worse.. Maybe bcos of last night's mango session. Sigh.. Let's hope we dun spend too much.. Else I will be broke man..

Life is so unpredictable.
The younger of the twins now got depression and is on the verge of commiting suicide. Grow up, escaping cannot salvage the situation, only standing up and facing it does.
My poor Aunt is very stressed in facing him cause they still has a 5 yr old daughter.
I told dad, the cleverest thing and the right thing my uncle have done so far is to have married my aunt. If he does not have her now, he would have died long ago. He forsaked her when she was pregnant and now she could have done the same to him when he is down, but she did not. She is trying her best to stand up for him.
My poor dad is running around trying to resolve their problem when he's got tonnes of them himself. I know he is trying hard to be sane and to help everyone but who helped him in his problems then? He is both mentally and physically tired out by my mom, his mom, his bros and sisters and his own debts. What else you expect a 53 yr old man do? Dad had hours and hours of talk with him and encouraging him and there was once he even spoke to him overnight to encourage him to stand strong till 7-8 am in the morning...
Even after work and coming to fetch us, he dropped by my uncle's office to see if he's working hard or backing out... Then after that, he had another talk with my uncle till late and my aunt had to send us home first to leave the guys to talk at the coffee shop beside his office.
It was already 9pm, so I invited my Aunt to have dinner while waiting for the guys to come. After dinner, QiQi (their daughter) called to see how come her parents still not home yet. I have a feeling that my aunt is rather jealous that QiQi is closer to my uncle and is feeling upset to a certain extent that "QiQi's father" which is my uncle is making her life miserable and now QiQi called her to ask how come she's not home.
Last night, Shawn talked to Dad on the phone till about 1am to see what ideas they can come out to salvage the situation the company is going through and Dad touched a bit about the background of this family and Shawn said that Dad cried... I know Daddy is very tired.. very tired of having so much problems but he is still standing strong!
Can u guys please stand up and fend for yourself? My dad is already old and if he can take all these nonsense and all that he's gone through, what gives u the right of going through a depression and give others problem? Life is not a game... Not u say dun wan to play liao means just give up!
I just hope that all problems will be resolved and Dad can have a better life and retire and have many grandchildren to be with.
Its just a simple wish, is it hard to achieve?

Weightloss time again
First pregnancy lost around 15kg but gained back after delivery.
2nd pregnancy lost about only 5kg cause of my constant cravings of M&Ms and Smarties.
Now #3 liao, think the same trend is going to happen looking at things now.
See ah.. I had a very small packet of bee hoon, that I managed to finish cause its seriously a small packet. Lunch I ordered "Za Rou Fan" which I seriously only see "Za Zhu You Fan" hahah. Its supposed to be fried Pork Cutlet with Rice. The Pork Cutlet is damn damn oily loh, looks like fried pork fats.... owww... GROSS!
I ate some of the "pork" then 2 spoonful of rice... Hahah the leftover can pass off as brand new plate of "Za Rou Fan" hahah. Didn't really eat a lot...
That's why I say, its weightloss time again!!!
I'm Pregnant!!! Confirmed already!!! No 3 is on the way!
Can U imagine that I'm having the same bday as Uncle Mark (Jie Yi's Father) and my #3 shares the same bday as his wife and daughter? Its just so creepy!
Now, my blog will still name the baby as #3 as its too early to tell if its a boy or a girl. My crazy husband is hoping for a Long Feng Tai, he's nuts, admit it dear.
This explains my losing of appetite, feeling letargic (forgot spelling) and bouts of food cravings... Talking about cravings, felt like eating 7-11's Mr Softie! Unfortunately, its raining now. Can only get my Mr Softie after work tomorrow. Hope can tahan till tomorrow.
Anyway, I've chosen to follow up in Polyclinics(unlike the previous 2 times which I follow up in KK), to save $$. Every visit to KK is $27.50 excluding of tests and scans. But visits to Polyclinis will only cost around $13-$15 every time inclusive of standard urine test. Hahah maybe when I cannot tahan Polyclinics, will get them to refer me to KKH. Now gotto save money since #3 coming along, not to mention tat I still owe my bro $900. Sigh.. when am I going to be able to return him the money.
The good news is that Dear's cousin bro finally signed the letter! The lawyer will be proceeding with the relevant docs and HDB will not take our flat at this point of time. Hopefully letter will be done by the time baby #3 is born so that we can pay for this house via CPF instead of the current $300++ by cash. So by then we can have spare $300++ for baby's expenses. Good news having been coming since we got this baby. Dear hit his sales target this month and got $500 as incentives... Should be able to let us have good celebration for Joshua's bday. I don't want to shortchange him just bcos he's going 2 siblings. I want to make sure that he knows mummy will give him the best she can even though got many mouths to feed.
We really thank God for all that he's given and we believe that he will provide. Amen!
Do give us ur blessings and keep us in ur prayers.
Will update more about this pregnancy soon.

Look who's turning the table around? Ms Stephanie Goh's imagination is eating right into her and she's turning it into a fictional fact. Let me just put it this way, if a 4-D number just striked the 1st prize,and you said that you've intended to bet on the number and wanting to claim the prize from S'pore Pools, do you think that they'll entertain you? This is a simple logic of action speaks louder that words!! Frankly, in a virtual marketplace like this, although sellers don't need to pay a cent to advertise, they're usually the one spending hours of efforts translating their items e.g taking pics, editing pics/words, mending enquires and calls etc....Not to mention prospective buyers or takers playing them out, leaving them stranded with the items after all those work!!!! Anybody with sentiments to share???

Hi claire, You hit right on the nail head regarding the seller's effort!! Had experience with a buyer who also offered to take up all my items for further discounts. I was eager to clear them then, and agreed to discount certain items. In the end, this fellow took part of the items and said he needed to arrange transport to pick up the other big ticket items e.g furnitures, but he never showed up and remains uncontactable!!! Of course, items that he first took were further discounted items. And till now when I think of this harmless looking rat, I'm still burning with anger!!!

Dear Mabel, I empathize with you. There's just too many such wolves in sheep skin walking around. And in my current encounter, a wolf crying out "WOLF"!
I really feel like slapping her. Fucking Bitch you know!!! Pissed the shit out of me...

I see some light....
Finally I see "Yi Xian Shu Guang"!
Signing this letter does not have any restrictions and dun need him to pay or anything mah.. Its just to co administer the property. Won't even need a hair off his body mah... dunno why he refuse to sign all this while...
But now its good that finally he agree to see the lawyer, hopefully after explaining what this letter of grant is about, he can sign on the spot.
So that I can have a roof over my head and dun have to spend another 3K to redo the letter.
I really thank God that he never forsakes us, at times I wonder why he put us into this situation but he never will leave us to fend for ourselves. He will test us only to a certain limit.
And one more thing... Dunno if he has already bless us with another kid or not. Waiting patiently till end of this week and we should know the answer by then.
Pics of my sweeties
Thanks Esther for bringing the cam over. Here are some pics we took (Erm, theoratically is she took.. hehehe) :
Mummy says that I look blur, do I?
Struggling to break free from mummy..
This cap is simply too big for me!
Mummy, I've got a question!
Can anyone guess what I'm trying to do?
Ha Ha, I am very interested in the new gadget mummy is holding. Can I eat that... hmmm
Lastly, here's a very charming smile to all the aunties and uncles out there.
Damn Pissed

Sorry to say this, we agreed verbally that I will take the camera plus the sofa plus the tripod stand. We have already agreed that I will collect items on this weekend. How can you just call me and say that you've given it to others and still got the cheek to ask me if I still want the other two items. You didn't even apologise for it! How can I trust to buy the sofa from you? What if u agree to sell it to me and tell me "I've sold it to others" w/o apologising again? I think you are very dishonest. For other mothers out there, I just want to highlight this cause I don't wan u guys to also be the victim.
She still got the cheek to reply with this: She's really a bitch man. On the phone sounds so nice but actually is a fucking screw up bitch!

Hi all, I'll like to tell Ms Stephanie Goh not to take kindness for stupidity!! Yup, you called me to "chopped" the digi cam with a perceived dangling carrot of taking in all my items (Thanks again to all you postees out there for your overwhelming response).To be precise, you said that you'll take my cam this Saturday first and then consider the rest after that.You think I stupid or what???Why get so sore over a mere $20 digi cam ??!!! By the way, may I know how are you victimised?
So I replied:

Claire please dun insult me. I told you the camera confirm and request for pics for the sofa discolouration verbally. Then I sms u after that to say that confirm the sofa, camera, and tripod stand and say that I'll advise the collection time this SAT. I still have the sms, now u r turning the tables around?? So by smsing u means that I'm dangling a carrot and lying?? Then by what means is confirmed? collect item immediately? I have already confirmed with you to take the other items as well. I already told my husband and have confirmed to get transport for the sofa. If I wan only the cam, I can always tell you that I want the cam, dun have to tell u about the other items and ask you to measure the sofa for me to see if it fits into my dad's matrix. You posted in this thread only about the camera?? But I found on another thread about the sofa. How can u say that I want to chop the camera by telling you I want ur other items as well? I'm not sore just over the camera. I'm angry that u didn't even apologise!And now you are insulting me? If you have no intention to sell your items, pls say so. Dun post something and cannot honour it. Like what I posted, I confirmed all 3 items. Then call me to say that camera taken at night? You can't even honour ur word, what makes me trust u on other items. By then I pay for transport liao then u tell me items taken then what am I supposed to do. I just don't wan others to be cheated by you like I was. YOU DUN HONOUR YOUR WORD. Other mummies there, I won't comment anymore, you guys look at the situation and decide yourself.
I feel like punching someone!!!!

She also has a modern L-shaped simulated leather sofa with suede throw cushions for sale. She bought this sofa about a yr back for $750 and she's selling at $30.

My New Scrap Book
But bought something to cheer myself up... While having lunch, someone came over to sell things, normally I don't really bother about them but when I saw what they were selling, my interest was aroused and I bought it instantly.
Its a Scrap book album!!!!
Here is some (not so good quality bcos of my HP) pictures:
When will my digicam dream be fulfilled? :'(
Here is the cover. Album is black with a window to slot in family picture.
This is one of the pages which says "School Days". See the windows of this bus can actually slot photos in.
This is one of the pages which says "Girl Stuff"
This is one of the pages which says "Boy Stuff"
It consists of small blank boxes for me to stick the photos on. Some have windows to slot photos in. Its so nice! And the best part is, it costs only $10!!!
It even has a pets section to post pictures of pets!
I have a new album! I'm definately going to work on it as soon as I have got time!

My Sat and Sunday
Me: Hi Morning, may I know who is this?
Guy: Hi, I'm the buyer for the mouse.
Me: Oh... where you now? Aren't we suppose to meet at 2pm?
Guy: Erm, but I sms you to change the time already
Me: Oh did you, I didn't recieve leh? Did I reply?
Guy: Yah, you said okie
Me: Oh issit? Oh no... I'm very sorry, can you give me sometime cause I'm outside now. I will go back to take the mouse and go meet you. I should be there by 20mins. I'm so sorry.
Guy : Okie.
So I got my sweet sweet hubby to rush through his Mukta Thosai and his hot coffee and send me home to take the Mouse... Thanks Dear, sorry for the rush.
Sat afternoon went concourse to view the Christmas trees, all quite ex leh although very nice.. Didn't buy anything there. End up went upstairs to see the party stuffs and bought quite a few things. Bought 2 hairbands with ears for the kids... Jo
After sending mum and kids home, me and dad went to NTUC to buy Milk as I promised mum to buy a bottle of milk for her so that she can have warm milk at night. Guess what I found....!
I found a BBQ pit, with wheels at a cheap price... normally the good quality big ones are selling at maybe say $400 each. The one I bought is slightly smaller (around 25" by 15") and maybe not so good quality at $11.90!!! But I think its worth it loh, even if I use for only 5 times and throw away, still worth loh. Yeh... this Christmas, we can have a small BBQ!!!
Sat night mum made Braised duck, as promised, here's the picture.. Sorry about the quality of the picture, its taken with my HP.
It was Yummy despite me buying an Old Mother Goose.. heheh
Sunday as usual went to Tekka for breaky and marketing. After putting the groceries home, we headed for the west of Singapore.
Went IMM to search for my cheap and good christmas tree and present for Marizel's kids. Walked for almost the whole day. Went Diaso, its so big. Everything at $2, so many ppl. I bought I black T-shirt for Rosie, bought brush, soft toy and Christmas Ornaments. Spent lots of money again. Oh, forgot to mentioned that I found a Santarina in Diaso, wanna see?
Here's a pic of her:
Isn't she Sweet... I should send this piture for competition hor.. hahahh
Then daddy found a Christmas tree sold in Giant so we all went down to Level 1. As usual, my Joshua did not get his nap in the afternoon so was very cranky. Even though there was a lot of ppl at Giant, he never failed to roll on the floor, jump around and etc. Nearly pissed the shit out of me. I bought a Singlet for Joshua, bought a T Shirt for Marizel's Son. Finally saw a Christmas tree... its selling at $39.90 for a 6" tree. Bought more accessories, hahah. Dead broke that I had to borrow money from my bro... Die.... so much debt.
After walking and buying these, went to Clementi to search for cheap and good shoes for Marizel to buy. Went to the K Shoppin which has got so many Kids shoes and kids clothes at cheap prices. Hahah, got ladies ones too. In the end, I too bought a pair of shoes (since mine going to spoil soon) for myself at $6. Cheap right? I admit, I'm a cheapo nowadays.. hahahha. What to do, got 2 kids and a maid to feed. I bought a black spag top for Joy which says 2005 with a bear in the middle. Its so cute...
After the shopping and splurging, we went for a simple dinner and headed home...
In total, think I spent around $150 for everything.... Broke..
But I am having a dilema now... You know for boarding Sugar, Esther pays me $300 a month. She paid $150 to me beginning this month liao and will be paying $300 end of the month and $150 end of next month. The $150 she paid this month already gone liao... I seriously dunnno how I spent the money... but the dilema is whether should I take the $300 she going to pay end of this month to invest in a Digital Camera. Something which I have been thinking for the past few months. Cause if I don't now, then I think this dream can only be fulfiled next yr... Haiz...
What should I do? but if I take the $300 to buy digicam, I abit heart pain leh... cause I can use the $300 to have a very good Christmas Party or buy things for the kids. Hmmmmm.. what do you think?
Do post some advise for me k? Muacks..

Raining again... :(
Its raining again.. Think gotto ride in the rain. Just now heard the thunder, scary. Me for one is a scardy cat... thunder too loud, will cover ears one.. hahah. Dun laugh at me k?
Daddy today car broke down after his lunch at 4:30pm. Yes... he has his lunch at 3plus almost everyday. He was at Bukit Merah for lunch then when he went to the Multi Storey car park to pick his car... realised that car cannot be started...
My already broke daddy had to call for the mechanic. Mechanic came and check and say that most probably problem lies with the battery... Then have to change...
But the nice and sweet mechanic helped daddy save money. Normally for the first 200000km/20000km (hhahah dunno which one), replacement of battery is free. But daddy already exceeded that mileage cause of constantly driving us around. The mechanic called his boss to say that the mileage is lesser than that so replaced the battery for daddy for free.. So nice right?
So daddy save around $100+++! Sometimes its nice to have these type of nice ppl around, although it may be a gimmick to let customers stay with them but why not? Customers get to save money right?
YEH!!! Sunday confirm going Daiso... Can go see what they have there. Hope I dun spend too much... *crossing fingers*. So Long, me going home as soon as my Baby call me. Have a good weekend k?
A Pic of Me in the Office

Heard that they have good and a big variety of items going at only $2 each. Planning to go see the Christmas ornaments. Oh Yah... Esther gave us a very very beautiful star to put on our christmas tree... Its a sparkly sparkly one... Thanks Girl..
Was still thinking of putting on the christmas tree or hang it, it looks too nice to put on christmas trees, should hang it on its own in the living room, what do you think?

Rainy Rainy Morning
Josh wore his slippers to school this morning by accident and he started crying in school bcos of that. Told him that its okie and I will go and bring his sandals down but he just cried and say that he wants to go home with me. Think he is worried that the teachers will scold him or laugh at him... I had to reasure him and Mrs Chew had to forcefully bring him in assuring him that mummy will be down soon and to coax him to have breakfast first. Cause kids have to be in school by 8:20am in order to be in time for breakfast and assembly by 8:35am. .. So I went up and down to bring his sandals to him while he waited in school. Finally he was settled and agreed to have his breakfast and finally I can go to work without worrying about him.
Oh... Shawn bought a pair of sunglasses for me.. its nice.. If I got chance, will post pic of that pair to show u guys... Looks quite good, small lenses, quite cool.. hahha. Last night let Joy and Joshua wear that pair and took photos... Joy looked very good in that.. hahah. When she grows bigger, maybe will let her wear that out.. she seems to enjoy wearing it too..
Okie, gotto go back to work already... will write more maybe in the afternoon.
O Lord my God,Teach my heart this day where and how to see you,Where and how to find you.You have made me and remade me,And you have bestowed on meAll the good things I possess,And still I do not know you.I have not yet done thatFor which I was made.Teach me to seek you,For I cannot seek youUnless you teach me,Or find youUnless you show yourself to me.Let me seek you in my desire,Let me desire you in my seeking.Let me find you by loving you,Let me love you when I find you.

My Blog, My online Diary
Thanks for looking at my blog. I first started blogging in Yr 2004 but that was all the past and I hope to start blogging about happy things... So I start a new Blog loh...
Okie, here goes.
Let's start from my background. I am a married 22+ Yr Old (Birthday on 13th Dec, so still considered 22 right? hahahha) with 2 beautiful kids.
I first met hubby on 18th Oct 1999, know him through his childhood friend... Then somehow in Yr 2001 May, we realized that I was pregnant for a 8 weeks... Hahah. What a great birthday present for him *giggles*
Now, then developed embryo, has grown to a 18kg handsome and clever, soon to be, 4 Yr old.
He was born 2nd Jan 2002 @ 22:12 hrs, 3.045kg, 40wks + 2 days.
Here's some pictures of the little charming guy in my life
This was him when he was around 1 1/2 Yr Old.
Also around 1 1/2 Yr Old...
This is him now. Taken last Sunday at Big @ Harbour Front on their Beanbag.. See how big he has grown.
In Yr 2004 June, a good news came. I was 4 weeks pregnant with my 2nd child. This time round, we decided that we should get hitched officially and we are more settled to be bound by that paper. So in 2004 19th Oct, we got ROM!
Baby Joy was born on 5th Apr 2005 @ 22:13 hrs, 3.400kg, also 40wks + 2 days!
Did you realize the similarity? Joshua and Joy has an age gap of 3Yrs, 3Mths, 3Days and 1 min!
Here comes Joy's picture.
This is sweet little Joy at 1 Day Old.
"Mummy lar... Pay $80 to take this photo for me, then they wrap me so tight"
Joy at around 2 1/2Mths Old
"I love bathing time. So happy in my little pool"
Picture taken when Joy was around 3 1/2 Mths Old.
"Kor Kor playing with me on Gong Gong's car, Kor Kor is sooooo funny"
Also at around 3 1/2 Mths Old
Taken when she was around 5 1/2 Mths Old
"Mummy say I'm adorable... Am I?"
Say Ahhh... "My first meal at Macdonalds"
"Hi Uncles and Aunties, this is me taken on 13th Nov 2005 at Big@ HarbourFront. Haven't I grown to a big girl now?"
Not forgeting my sweet doggy, Rosie. Youngest member in the family. She is born end of May 05
My life has been a roller coaster since young and my marriage has been shaky but I am still happy and proud to have 2 wonderful kids. They have brought so much joy, not forgetting the anger too, to my life and have made my life so complete.
Lookout for my blog as I will definately upload more pictures of my two sweethearts and will be posting more updates in my daily life.
