Many Little Tricks
Tuesday, January 30, 2007

Zann is picking up really fast. She knows how to gesture many little actions. Actions to depict "bye", "hi-5", "one"... honestly, I cannot remember how many more she can do. Oh! She loves to ask me bringing her go out for a walk walk whenever possible. Despite being so tired, I still gave in to her request yesterday. We merely spent an hour enjoying the windy breeze in the park.






Her hair is not long enough to be tied. But I still decide to give her a new hairstyle. She looks different and I cant help smiling.

Tea Break @ Central. Our First time here together with Hb and Zann. She was sucking her thumb cos she felt tired. (That was her sign of showing fatigue). But after seeing the food we ordered, she changed her mind and pestered us to give her some.










" Er...Daddy, Can u feed me the water properly? "

Zann doensnt like soft toys. She really dread them. And it was proven. Dont understand why.

Isnt this doll cute? Found it sitting in the stroller on the floor.

"Mummy, What's that? Eeew...?"

"Mummy, I dont like it, please take it away!"


Free Kiddy ride in Toys R Us with Daddy helping her along.



"Who are you? Why are u standing next to me?"

"Oh So it was the God of Fortune! Duno why Daddy and Mummy so excited taking photo with him? Waste my time only."

"Ok, let's call it a day! I am going to my slumberland."

Mummy Turning Panda Today
Saturday, January 27, 2007

It happened again. Zann woke up at 3am last nite. She sat herself up and cried bitterly. She would not lie down on her bed. Mummy was really tired and sleepy! Fortunately, she finished the milk bottle, 240 ml of milk. It took another 2 hours before she went back to sleep. Really hope this doesnt happen often.

Remember the set of Winnie The Pooh Board Books I got for her last Xmas.
This afternoon, I passed her the book and she didnt even gave a glance . She just took the book in a flippant and careless manner, bring it to the side and dropped onto the floor. This is her way of telling me " I am not interested in it now" Okay, I shall try again another day.

The Abandoned Book


"Can I show you my funny face?"





Butter Cake
160g butter
150g caster sugar
3 eggs
140g all purpose flour
30g corn flour
1tsp baking powder
1tsp vanilla essence
80ml milk

Preheat the oven 170C
Prepare a greased cake tin
Combine all ingredients in the mixing bowl
Beat till pale and creamy and pour into the prepared tin
Bake 40 mins until golden brown and springy to touch
Leave it to cool for 5min before turning the cake onto the rack

Where is my milk?
Friday, January 26, 2007

Last nite Zann went to bed at 9pm, she would usually sleep till wee hours before she fussed for milk. Yesterday nite She decided to give me an unexpected surprise. She woke up at 2am and I gave her 240ml but she drank 120ml instead. And again, at 6am she asked me to get up. I am not sure if she is really hungry or doing it out of habit. I let her fuss for 20mins, in d end she scolded me, shouted for me to get up faster. Oh Boy! I am so tired. Guessed what, I passed her the milk bottle and the 180ml of milk was barely touched! She decided not to sleep and drink milk afterall. I leave her alone. Only then after an hour she returned to her slumberland.This morning she woke up at 11am. Feel like a walking zombie today. Super tired!

Her favourite 101 sleeping positions.





One thing I am very pleased of is, Zann loves books. She has even learnt to flip the flap, using her index finger pointing at the pictures. She would pause and talk to me (although I dont know what she is saying). But I still pretend to understand.








How Much Is your Blog Worth?
If given this was the real monies, they could really come in handy! HEe


My blog has no value. Never mind la. It's the memories that count priceless.

Moving around
Thursday, January 25, 2007



Zann's not able to turn the activity walker which means mommy or any other able-bodied human who happens to be nearby have to get her getting around. It's been tiring but on balance, it is still a joy to see my daughter so excited about being on the move. The 'cheapo' keyboard that I gotten many mths back finally cant perform today. It is spolit by Zann from the everyday banging and dropping onto the floor. Looks like have to get new toys sooner.

Some parents (one such person is my mum) have doubts feeding the child yogurt, "is that safe?" she ll ask. Well yes it is. It is in fact very good for kids. Unlike cow's milk, the lactose in yogurt has broken down, so it is safe for lactose-intolerant kids. Futhermore, yogurt is rich in fat, calcium and protein, all the stuffs a child need more than just carbos. ( and that yogurt has more calcium than milk).


She saw me sitting on the ikea stool and wanted to follow. So I let her sit by herself with her toy. She was so pleased maybe that let her feels like an adult, busy playing with her 'doughnut' LOL








"See? I can balance without any support."

"Look Mummy! I am practising my somersault skill!"


Since I have the time on my hands, I always prepare her breakfast largely from scratch.

Crepe











150ml milk
1 egg
50g plain flour
10g butter

Add the egg and mix with the flour and beat with whisk
Add milk (not cold) and add the melted butter
Cover wet towel on the bowl for 30 mins, then toast thinly with pan

An update on Zann
Wednesday, January 24, 2007




















Recent Diet :
Full Fat Cow's milk, it's the norm for babies to switch to cow's milk when after they hit 1. Zann has done the same and She loves Meiji milk.

Random feed of strawberry-vanilla yoghurt and milkshake

Recent favourite activities :
Standin up and down in the playpen, pointing at things gesticulating with index finger (Lucky it's index). Then came the clapping and constant babbling minus the shouting, and it is really as if having conversation with me yet I have no idea what she is saying :P

Watching Zann at 13 mths babbling and doing other weird funny stuffs really make me ponder, yeah there's still much more growing to do, and it's really a long hard ride learning to be parents from scatch.






Few Steps
Tuesday, January 23, 2007

I decided to leave Zann with the activity walker by herself, w/o me helping her. To give a try seeing how far she can walk. To my delight, she managed! by herself w/o me yeah, walking many steps. So happy. She chuckled as she moved along LOL .Cant wait for the day she's able to walk.

Enjoy children when they are small
Enjoy them when they hold your hand while learning to support
Enjoy them when playing peekaboo draws a wide smile on their face
Enjoy the even loud wailing which show they need you
Before long, they wont need you anymore

Woke up at 6am today. I din get back to sleep after that. Still has the unfinished butter cookies to bake, 9am Zann woke up and I am done with. Feeling the most lethargy today. I keep forgot what to buy and what has finished until today then realised that diapers left 3 pcs. oh no, 10am Went down to NTUC after fed Zann bread and Milo. Forgot to get myself rice outside..sigh..in d end Only managed to cook porridge for her. Had cake and cookies for my lunch instead. Now having sore throat. Lucky still have the painkillers left from last mth. Finally finished the war and beauty vcds. Duno whether to continue follow other serials. waste of money not?

Milo Lovers, would u know that there are two types of different types of powder in the market> Either M'sia or Australia. The one from Australia is creamier while the one frm M'sia is sweeter. For me, I prefer the Aussie version.

Sweet tooth
Sunday, January 21, 2007

Today morning already kena tummy pain like hell. In d end, it's the 'purchase more shoes' period again. And my cravings for chocolate started as well. Didnt manage to get any choc but decide to bake. Anyway it's abt time to to 'exercise' the oven liao. More worth the value. I even bought the ingredients for butter cookies and sponge cake as well. Sponge cake din turned out well. In d end throw away. I shall work on the butter cookies tomorrow. Zann shall have a surprise frm me.

Zann learning to walk with the aid of activity walker.

Friday, January 19, 2007


water plan


Today pretty early to start. Woke up 8am and prepare breakfast for Zann and myself. Peanut butter for me and Canola margarine onto the high fibre bread for her to dip in milo. Children with family history of allergies shldnt take peanuts till 3 years old. That's what I read on it before.

Small children need to drink more water. It came to my knowledge that given Zann's age shld be consuming at least 4 half cups of plain water at least. And she doesnt hit that. Really frustrating to get her drink water. She dun want bottle. Trying to train her to hold her own cup, well she did but just dun drink. No choice have to use spoons. Now only a few sips and that's it. Zann isnt convinced that water is good and she needs water. Went thru the drawer when she is asleep, saw several plastic syringe. Some unused. Came from seeing doc when she's younger back then. Maybe I shld use the unused plastic syringe to feed her water ar.

Mummy is sharing lunch=porridge with Zann. Me too tired to cook the salmon separately. Me running out of spinach. Lucky still have the broccoli bought the other day.

Yesterday din follow on the 10pm war and beauty. Lucky still have the rented vcds. My fren told me though rented, I still can watch so slow ar..sigh bo bian. Can only wait for little darling to nap in the afternoon before I can have the chance to. So fast weekend is here. And I can forsee myself and Zann at hm. Hopefully ll be peaceful weekend for me. I dun wish to see inlaws appearing or causing any troubles. I have a feeling this time I have to stand up for myself le.

Thursday, January 18, 2007


Be it a joke or what, even if it is, isnt funny at all. Not the first time. And It wasnt a good feeling to hear frm hb saying Zann is a F**k face last nite. How would Zann feel if her own daddy scolded her like that!? I told him off. Even If I tell inlaws their own son always treated Zann like that, no one ll believe me, they ll always protect him. Mil used to say, hb maybe feeling vexed. Oh, does that mean if i vexed, feeling lousy, I can beat Zann or vent on her?! It just doesnt make sense.

Fil sms-ed hb saying want to meet him and my mum. Me not in the picture. Somehow must be related to my past I told them. I dun care anymore. Hb told me he wasnt not bothered by it. Yet asked me " u really told them, i know u didnt" Oh too bad I have told them. Why? " U getting cold feet ar" ? I kind of feel disillusioned with this marriage. Everything of it. He doenst even love Zann, always refer her as a burden. If there's one word to describe, Rotten. A rotten marriage.

Everyone knows abt the reunion plan and me the last one to hear abt this. I told everyone, I wont force myself to be so unhappy facing pple i dun like to see and to pretend to feel good just for the sake of this dinner. No way to be a hyprocrite. Nothing to eat at most, instant mee is fine with me. For Zann, I can always go market to get those raw ingredients beforehand. So what's the big deal?!

Came across an article days ago, some pple includin me, often in the text message language, using the word- omg for 'oh my god' is a kind of showing disrespect towards God. For christians to understand esp. In every way possible, we have to be careful not to turn the hallowed name of our God into just another flippant phrase on our lips or in a text message. For this, me certainly enlightened.

Wednesday, January 17, 2007

I bought myself chocolate truffles, no wonder pple always say chocolate can make a person feel happy. And that's wat I needed for tday. At least. I am not in a good mood today. Have a quarrel with my mum again. It doesnt make me feel good that in law know abt her problem with her own hb. I have gotten used to the idea of being in a single family. Just dun understand why she still cant let go. News spread fast and esp the not so called good news. Why on earth must announce to the whole world?!

Chinese New YEar coming soon and there's planning and decision made w/o my knowledge. In the first place wasnt even close to relatives, why must make ourselves unhappy to face them when I can enjoy reunion dinner! My bro and me simply dun want to eat with them. The talk of it enough to make my blood boil.

Came back home frm the central to realise that Me have left out the cod fish oil for Zann. Everythg bought liao just that cod fish oil...urgh..Forgot i havent taken my lunch, In d end, instant noodle. Afternoon, I trashed things out with mil over my past. I am just tired to hide the truth anymore. Mum asked me why I do that, what if they despised me. I F care la. If they can accept for who I am, Good, If not, forget it. My right eye twitched the whole day. Is it good or bad? Can anyone tell me?

So what having a lousy mood rite, still have to prepare dinner for everyone in the family, Anyhow cook also. Stir Fried French bean. Steamed egg with minced pork. Stir Fried potato with luncheon meat in tomato sauce. If anyone can tell me not good enuff, I ll gladly ask that person serve me. Just like last time, mil forbade hb eat the butter cookies i baked. Saying can cause heart problem!

Tuesday, January 16, 2007

After 7am milk feed, Zann went back to ZZz and woke up at 11am, these days always so late. I tot of giving her Kellogg's cereal with milk for breakfast but the timing so near lunch, in d end, Feed her Chicken porridge for lunch. While me having bread with otah. Sick of the jam and butter days. Read thru the Mother and Baby issue, an article abt the benefits of eating Kiwi. It helps the boost immune system and the fruit has always been Zann's favourite. thank God, Glad that she is not a fussy eater, she accept what I give her normally. I am thinking of cooking lasagne for Zann. Maybe weekend ba. Take alot of effort to prepare.

She learnt how to clap hand today. The action very cute lor. Hmm cant think of any song that relate with clapping hands. Or is there? Learning process ll be more fun If there is song included, I guessed.




While having the SaraLee cake, makes me wonder if the name-brand belongs to a Chinese..in d end, I went to search online, so it was an american bakery entrepreneur naming after his daughter. Funny, I have known this brand for so many years since young until today then i realised.How blur I am.hmm I picture myself how my future gg to unfold. Whether one day me too ll have my own bakery shop..sigh. Think can only bake at hm.

Chew On it ..Endure?
Monday, January 15, 2007

Some days awaken with aching feeling and dull spirits and wonder how to shake off the lethargy and make it through the day. Woke up early to start Today. Prepared my own breakfast, Zann's Lunch and my lunch as well. All done by 10am. And Zann has a good sleep until 11am. And she ZZZ again after an early lunch at 11am. And that's 145pm.

A Quiet afternoon. No one else. Just me and Zann.

Managed to finish a book today,titled' Chew on this'. Worth a reading.
It's abt the downside of fast food. Heard there is a movie abt it coming soon.














A call from agency, asking if i am keen to take up a job. Marketing in a prestiged bank. But the salary offered not to my expectation. Asked them to keep another look out for me in d end. Rented the War and Beauty Series last nite. Finally back to my TV addiction days soon. I missed those days. My TVB addiction days back in Yew Tee.

Dinner today still a question mark cos no more tingkat for the moment.

Perception Reality



Yesterday visited Learning Vision. The Principal was friendly. She explained the curriculum and the fees ..sound good to me. She asked me to grow Zann 's hair long cos mistaken for a boy. She also commented that Zann is tall and well developed. I feel proud of cos. I told the principal that I take care of Zann almost a year. With no help. The teacher offered to carry Zann.. but after a while, she cried for me. Can tell she still cling to me. I just dun trust anyone who can do a better job than me.

Went to buy food and prepare lunch and dinner for everyone, ended up couldnt meet Keith to go church on time. Have to postpone to next week le. I was reading bible and happened to see these verses from Luke 11:34

Your eye is the lamb of you body
When your eyes are good, your whole body is also full of light.
But when they are bad, your body is also full of darkness,
See to it then that the light within you is not darkness.

It's meaningful to me. I tried reading it many times and I got the message into my head.

No one to talk to when night fall. Ended up eating alot. Dinner was cooked by me.
Wanted to play some strategy game but find meaningless to me, in d end stayed up late watching horror show
I watched the 'Stay Alive' after Zann Zzz, through the nite.
Reminded me of an almost fatal game I played with 2 pals back in secondary days.

Zann turning 13 mth today
Friday, January 12, 2007

Today Zann turning 13mth old. So fast.
That day's check up I asked doc if Zann is overweight, lucky no. But But Doc say she is very tall, 83cm! (Got to pay if travel mrt cos 90cm is their limit..) And she is still learning to walk. There's some progress. She managed to learn walking a few steps and she knows what 'fall' means. I used the activity walker, she hold the handle firmly. When she let go, I ll say, cannot! Fall fall, wait pain pain ar and she understands, she quickly grab onto the handle again. Until she say, mama bao bao...Doc said if by 16 mths she still cant walk, got to bring her see doc liao (which I hoped this not the case)

Wanted to get her the rocking horse frm ikea ...but dun have chance to go. Tomorrow have to meet the principal frm learning vison and then noon I have to bring Zann to church. Sat a busy day for me. Wanted to go tampines walk walk also but no chance. Morning wanted to buy kiwi for Zann but raining again. And today she wake up at 10am and she Zzz again after the milk and bread with cheese. Duno why these days Zann always Zzzz so much in the daytime.

And her nightime frm the usual 8pm turned to 11pm ord. Not letting her ZZ in the daytime she ll turn cranky and refused to play and practise walking. I need to revert her to normal sleeping time. If not she ll think can suka suka sleep anytime she like!

Lunch for Zann ll be minced liver meat (rich in iron), carrot (rich in beta carotene).

Today's weather's cold. Raining. I wondered whether can go out later have dinner. As I am typing the blog, my tummy is calling for food. Hungry now, must be due to the cold weather. PizzaHut having promo 2 regular pan pizza for 19.90..cheap ar...if not for the dinner, I might have called in ord...

Tired. Physically and Emotionally. Sad.
Tuesday, January 9, 2007

I was sick yesterday. Had a fever. I feel a need to see doc. But no 1 can help to relieve me , in d end I asked a fren for help. Then I informed Hb and he blamed me to cause him lose concentration in his job. I din understand. I tot I can inform him that I am sick and need to see doc. What is wrong with that? Dun tell me if wife sick, Co will condemn him? I am so disappointed with him.

Patience? How to find it to handle him? I cant. And I very sick yesterday. We quarrelled over the phone and I tore up the mrc and wanted a divorce. I am tired.

He came back home not asking how my fever was in d end picking a quarrel. This time triggered over by his mum. Just a phone call in the noon made him feel good towards his mum. And me is the petty and evil one. Evil wife and daugterin law. He can blamed me for not being extra nice to his mum. He asked me why cant I be Extra Nice to her!!!? And he can tell me If i nice to her, she sure ll be treat me gd!!! Hello, In what way has I offended his mum? Right frm the start, where? He knew his folks dun treat me gd yet today I look the petty one to him. Nice? In what way has I not nice to his mum? He knew and he cant answer me!

I told HB' I dun owe yr mum anythg, neither has I screamed at her or being rude like that, I merely chose my own way, ie. keeping quiet and dun wish to talk to them, what's wrong with that? Your Mum's words hurt and I dun need that to aggravate my depression and all the more I dun deserve that. I am a sensitive person.

Till today HB dun understand. He said he never get to see all this. So does it mean I am making it all up and accuse yr mum's character? Well fine, If i am really that bad, then go back to Yr mother, and we go separate way. I asked for a divorce. I am very hurt and sad to think my own hb can see me until like that.

I am having fever, no concern no care yet kena blamed. What M i ? Tired, I wished I can leave and go.I wished to give up everythg or God can take me away. I hve done so much for this family. I dun expect returns and want a bit of care and concern and yet this is what I get. I feel myself so small. Perhaps so small until my existence doesnt matter anymore.

Vaccination
Sunday, January 7, 2007


Today morning brought Zann for the vaccination against MMR. She was in a happy mood till the needle went into her arm. I felt painful too as I watched. Doc said the side effect maybe a fever after 3-5 days. I asked for fever medicine just in case. Total 53 bucks. There go the $$ again. Next injection ll be in June. Doc also told me abt the optional injection after 1st year. Like against chicken pox, Hep A, pneumoccal etc. So I think no hurry completing the vaccination until the 2nd year.

Hb had a terrible toothache as well. In d end, decided to see dentist until Fri. Always must wait for last min painful then start kan cheong. Nver heed my advise. (anyway, whatever I say oso turned into deaf ear one la). His father called him and asked him to call his mother back. I find it weird. Why cant the father conveyed the message? Feeling egoistic perhaps. I dun approve of their teaching method. So I always reminded HB dun ever use his own father's way of parental style on Zann if he himself dun like it. Correct mah..if u dun like it then dun practise on other pple lo. Anyway my r/s with his folks ll never improve.

Yesterday asked HB will i get to see Zann when she turn 50 years old? He replied me maybe. Yah, who knows how long I will survive. Duno y these few days I have a bad headache and bad premonition. Ask HB what ll he do if i am gone.But then, evrythg in the life related to the word 'depend'. Just like Zann, depending on the activity walker to progress from standing to walk a few steps, HB depends on his job to provide for me and Zann. Me, depend on Zann to give me the real meaning of life, depend on HB bring in $$$. Do i sound being useless? I think I am.

And I decided to go back to workforce this year.

Tired. Fever. Disappointed.
Friday, January 5, 2007

Today Zann woke up ard 10 am. I fed her kiwi and cod fish oil for the start. The timing close to her lunch. She managed to finish the chicken porridge I prepared. Same for the dinner. Dun dare to five spinach too much cos she had diarrhea yesterday. She cried for 15mins in the playpen and sleep at 130pm. Need to be time conscious cos have to know what time she wake up. In d end she slept for half an hour. Sure not enuf one. True. But I still keep her awake. Trained her on the activity walker. She managed to walk two steps. I am so happy.She din want to stand long so I passed all the toys to her. Made a mess on the floor.
i was disappointed when hb dun even bother to call when he know he ll be hm late. Taking me for granted again. And I have to be the one making the calls. Today is Friday and I told him I wanted to go out since my mum off today. HE okok in d end still in his work again. I am so tired. Why cant my hb help to relieve me, I really envy other pple's hb so nice to their wife. Do I have to treat him as my HB or younger brother? (He doesnt even knw what it takes to be a HB and a father). I am feeling feverish this morning, And a headache.
Why everyone have a break ..or rather they feel themselves deserve a break but not me. I am feeling frustrated now. My mum off today and asked her to help me look after Zann a while.. in d end she went put shopping.....Cant find own HB when I called him at 830pm. Cant even find him when I need him. Told him yesterday Zann need more vaccinations..he acted like bo hiu. KNN. I am really pissed with him.KNN ll be better off alone w/o him. Maybe ll happen one day! Bad temper, not making effort, forever blaming environment. Told him so many times. Even ask him how our wedding photos..he oso F care. No weddin dinner between us ok i am fine ...but dun even have a basic wedding photo..really a joke in this marriage.

I am wondering why on earth I have to be with someone 4 years younger than me. If no Zann, the answer ll be no.

Goodday to me and Zann
Thursday, January 4, 2007

Today it's early to start this blog for it hasnt a day yet..and here I am typing away while Zann is sleeping away at this minute in her playpen. Me myself also find it hard to believe. Second day today and I started 'training' my daughter to sleep on her own bed. No more swinging as I am hoping to make this habit go. I duno what other method to try besides using my own way. I knew she was 'craving' for the sarong as she started rubbing her eyes at 1030am. No matter how much she hated the feeling inside the playpen, i still left her there. While I am busy preparing her lunch, she busy crying and screaming @_@
This persisted ard half an hour..voila! Zann is asleep but in a sitting position..yeah..sound like magic..so fast asleep liao. Mummy is happy. Hopefully this is a Good start... LOL hmmm..shall see how long she sleep.



Zann sleeps for half an hour from her sitting position. Sigh. Have to keep on trying her ..no choice. I myself din get to nap in d end. Tired. And my headache is terrible. Today's tingkat dinner dishes sucked. I went dwn gotten myself a cheeseburger and an apple pie for HB. Hanging ard online also xian after mia for many days, din get to see my fren online today. Sigh. Hb came back from work late. I was angry with him initially for not calling me what time reach hm. He always take me for granted.

Zann progress well in standing these days. I am happy. I gave her the newly bought activity walker. She support herself by holding onto the handle. I keep telling her ..wait fall pain pain must hold ar..she understands. until she rub her eyes and say bao ..ma ma ma....sigh..sleep again.

Not feeling well....

As i am typing this, i am having headache. Duno y. These few daes have been suffering frm headaches. And it's like getting worse. Can only use panadols to relieve. Today is no exceptional. In fact just taken 2 panadols again. Not keen to see doctor. Waste time and $. Anyway, I only have myself looking after my darling. Zann woke up last night ard 5am for milk. After that she refused to sleep back in her playpen again. Screaming and crying away for me. No choice, I had to swing her. In order to keep her volume down. HB wasnt pleased with Zann. He shouted at Zann. But what can a one year old toddler know? I rebuked HB over this.

It's his temper again, Over many times I wanted him not to feel frustrated easily. To change other person, may as well change myself. And this i hope I can change Hb. Hopefully it works. I am just upset that HB dun see the way as me sometimes.
This morning, he told me he has apologised to Zann. I felt consoled.

Bye Bye long weekend ....chao ta liao

Today is the last dae of the long public holidays. Finally. Cant bear also. These few days like very relaxing ..Hb feels being forced to go out with me n Zann. He always find it troublesome to bring us out one. Told him I feel bored. Cooped up at hm wun do us any good also. He simply dun put himself in my shoe. But in d end he still gave in.

HB ll be returning to work tmlw. cAn tell he is happy cos he must have hated staying at hm. Yesterday we went to Pasir Ris park to cycle. We merely stayed 2 hours in the park and the weather seems cool to us.. and that trip caused the three of us more than just tired...we reached hm tanned or rather Chao Da..(and that include my little Zann too). I was worried for Zann, worried she may get fever.."touchwood" lucky dun have. Now my shoulders and back feeling sore and painful. Zann's face is a bit pinkish. Hb kena the forehead. We didnt expected the results. Or maybe we shld apply sunblock lotion liao.

I cooked and prepared today's dinner. HB say he loves it duno real or not. And he was hoping i ll cook Every Day man...I dun mind if i have a maid lor..me ord drained of energy looking after Zann, what's there left in me..sigh cook? i think i shall save that for weekend ba...for now still tingkat ba..

I told HB i really hated him using his pc more than spending time with me. Duno y he still dun get the hint. Our back face each other and our Face towards each of our computer screen, So where 's the interaction? Like married to PC ... My favourite TV prog starts tonite..War and Beauty...Ooo yeah! I know one, for me shall be watching alone.
