It was the Class 95FM's Ladies Night for the Clinic.
Hellavu crowd when Michelle and I reached.
So many mummies were around.
But we went in after 10pm, and had to pay the cover charges...
The band wasn't that nice. The 80's retro song they belted out really touched the raw nerves.
.
though I stayed merely for 2 hours plus...
All in all, I think Clinic is pretty a cool place. With it's unique concept.
600pmHad an early dinner with Agnes. She brought her boy, Kayden along.
Everytime I see him, he's always asleep. Sigh...
Zann is a bad bad girl today.
Yes, she was behaving badly...I didn't bring my stroller along.
So I have to carry her, but but but she refused to let me go near her !
The naughty girl simply can sit on the floor in the shopping mall...
like nobody's business eh...
Agnes was asking why I didn't spank her. I guessed I am too lenient
with her which ended up like that today lor.
Now you know why Zann can smile at me when I scold her.
10pmGrocery shopping was at Tampines Giant.
It was opened till midnight and we shopped till the end.
Hmm it's good to do late night grocery shopping lor..
Not many people.
No long queue.
No human traffic .
A grand total of $90 plus.
somebody is rich..eh not me la..so who else...
Marina Square 之旅
Sunday, May 27, 2007
I didn't want to spend my weekend alone with Zann at home.
I sms-ed Lois asking her if she was free to meet up today.
Her yes was really a big big happy answer I was hoping for.
After having a late lunch with Lois
while Zann was Zzz,
we decided to comb the shopping mall. Saw something I fancied at M)phosis.
Which I didn't get though...yah I couldn't make up my mind...
I saw this furry elephant ride..There were other animals to choose from.
Cost $2 per ride...very interesting lor..can drive around. Cute eh...
Worried that Zann didn't have enough food (she missed her lunch),
Lois treated us to Sakae Sushi.
As usual, Zann was making so much noise and playing
with plates..and chopsticks ...worse she couldnt sit still to have a meal..
so so so we LEFT after half an hour!
I start to develop phobia of this thing called S...sssushi..
frankly...I don't wish to count how many times I have eaten
Surprisingly, Zann could relate well to Lois.
Normally, Zann never accepted other people to carry her except me...
Now Lois made a difference...heh
Where is happiness?
Sometimes I just feel so terribly lonely and jaded...
Guessed the feeling of not staying at home is really great.
The three of us had a wonderful day...today.
And I hoped Zann is happy too.
Thanks Lois...for giving me your time and company
to feed my emotional being...
That red kiddy table...
Saturday, May 26, 2007
930pmA last minute decision was made.
We decided to go Ikea.
Anyway, I..wanted to get a kiddy table for Zann.
Since AL was driving back home, I asked him to bring us there.
Ikea closed at 10 pm. So we didn't shop much ard...
Between
red and
blue, we chose red for her.
Girl shld use red or pink mah...heh
Finally, Zann has her own
red table. *Grins*
Surprise...surprise
Friday, May 25, 2007
woo hoo...now I got the tickets to watch
the circus show next weekend with my Zann.
And I received a call. It's about an interview next Fri too.
And and ...and it's from a statutory board.
Interview means half a hope lor... *Grins
She wants to go out...
Wednesday, May 23, 2007
And that she is my darling Zann lor...
This afternoon, she brought her sandals to me and broke out in gibberish.
Okay she was asking me to bring her go out.
See that 'innocent' look on her face?
I rejected her request and she couldn't take NO for the answer.
Mummy was really tired today having only six hours of ZZzz last night.
That's the difficulties of parenthood ar ...
But then Zann has to learnt that
she cannot get her way everytime, all the time can ...
After the rejection, she started to threw tantrum
by not letting me to carry her.
She can turn her head away with a 'hng'!
Many 'hng' in fact...
Only after when I asked her "want milk milk or not? ", which she nodded her head.
Life is easier when she knows certain routine. *Grins
P.s. Honestly, I cannot envision how my life will be when Zann's doesn't need me anymore...
I am not dieting...for a mo
100amMy tummy is hungry.
Or maybe...I shouldn't try anymore ...to regain my figure back.
All I want now is to fill my bottom-less pit tummy...
SO I decided to head out for supper.
Anything that is oily or makes us FAT taste good. YUM... *Roll eyes*
Lost and UN-found...
Tuesday, May 22, 2007
我的 (16 years old atm)卡 不见了...
Couldn't recall where I have misplaced it!
Searched everywhere but to no avail.
So suay...I called to inform the bank and went down to make
an immediate replacement...for $5.
(I still prefer the old classic design).
I am early cos the bank open at 11am...
with 2 hours to loiter around with Zann.
(which means I have 2 hours to spend $$$)
Went for a light breakfast.
My kopi-O + half boiled eggs + 2 breads...
SLURP !!! My perfecto breakfast...
(Zann has one slice of toast bread)
Despite my dire financial condition
I still ended up rented many vcds...to occupy my days.
We reached home before heavy rain striked. Lucky!
Me and myself...
Monday, May 21, 2007
230pmI sent Zann to Auntie Dino's place.
She helped me to look after Zann while I went for interview.
I met up with Yazzy.
She looked so different from the first time I saw her...definitely prettier!
I don't know if I will be shortlisted but then I really appreciate her help.
Auntie Dino told me that an hour after I went off,
Zann went to the door with teary eyes and started to cry very bitterly.
When I hear this..oh I just feel so glad I am not forgotten by my little Zann.
***
Went for a little shopping trip after my interview today.
And saw this pretty top with sequins...nice or not?
I wanted a lighter colour but they only have it in grey lor.
Buay tahan myself can...i just couldnt resist the temptation to spend..
And I am eating like a cow too.
Oily and fattening Hokkien Mee...Yummylicious!
That thing about the weird meme...
Sunday, May 20, 2007
Heh...kena saboh-ed !!!
Molemole saboh-ed me !
She tagged me to do this meme on 8 weird facts abt myself.
...since I am free, for a mo, shall do it again
(tagged before on the same meme)...
So here it goes...
ONE I hate loud typing sound. It just irk me.
TWO I love bitter coffee...that is KOPI O without sugar!
THREE I get constipation easily yet I still love eating fried...junk food..
FOUR I don't like my chee-na name can...though I appreciate it.
FIVE I don't like to eat apples yet apple pie is my little indulgence.
SIX I don't use blankets when I sleep. It's a habit since young.
SEVEN I hate noise. The slightest sound can wake me up. And I cant SLEEP after that. So, that culprit will get it from me!
EIGHT I loathe rice served to me with gravy. I must have my rice DRY!
NO I am NOT tagging anyone bacause this is a
vicious cycle.
It shall end here.
SEE... I am so
noble. Haha
Which currency you prefer?
Saturday, May 19, 2007
hohoho...I have two different currencies on hand now...
eh so which you prefer to spend with ? So tell me...
The US currency ?
OR
The Yen ?
I am rich.
I am rich.
I am rich.
I am rich.
I am rich.
I am rich.
I am rich.
I am rich.
I am rich.
I am rich.
I am rich.
Anyway, I am just being bo-liao here can...heh
I have signed up ...
for the membership @ KidsExplorer.
Is that a big splurge for someone jobless like me?
Anyway dun care also. For Zann's sake I find it worth.
After all she gets the unlimited play happiness and
better still, it's sooooo near mum's place.
Ok so taking these two factors...I have signed up for the membership
and and and the chubby me online contest...
I have met tons of different types of cabbies
but this one today from the Downtown East really takes the cake.
I think he wasn't happy with the short distance
- that is going home within Pasir Ris vicinity.
Eh sorry Uncle, me very tired lor from carrying Zann with another 2kg bag.
7pm. Counting the surcharge. Somemore he drove at 40kmh.
THE TOTAL CABFARE is $5 !!!
I am not miserly..just find it not worth can...
*Ponder* Shall I buy 4D ? 5005 ...??
P.s I encountered one inconsiderate act...and have submitted the complaint to
http://rudesingaporeans.blogspot.com/.
Tsk...Tsk...Rejected
Friday, May 18, 2007
Guess what was inside that plastic bag?
It's not Zann's. It's Mummy's collection of soft toys.
And it's Sanrio collection. These are only half of it.
Not those cheapo toys can.
How I wish I have the space and a proper shelving to display them.
Before that, I was hoping to pass on those toys to Zann.
Looking at the current situation, I guessed I have to tuck them away...
Never mind. Once a while I will try to test her again. *Grins
Her 1st time at indoor playground...
Wednesday, May 16, 2007
It's Zann's first time...
I brought her to ExplorerKids. Just me and her.
Without the stroller also. Finally.
I can't think of any places so decided on Downtown East.
Mummy wants to see Zann happy. And I know she is.
After feeling so lost and directionless these days,
I have decided to move on with Zann...
The hurt and the pain is still there...
The leopard would never change it's spot.
Let's just say I am tired. Physically and Emotionally.
All I want to do now is to find a job soon.
Was glad that Dino Auntie agreed to help me take care Zann.
*Pray* that she won't change her mind.
我不需要谁温柔安抚
请放心 我很快能恢复
Ugly or Beautiful...memories?
Tuesday, May 15, 2007
Sometimes I asked myself, why I blogged?
For my sake or Zann's?
I wanted to keep the content in this blog ..only beautiful memories..
Yet, I have nowhere to express my inner feelings other than this place.
So tell me how...
I wanted to forget the ugly episode.
I wanted to erase the sad feeling inside me.
How to?
I am hanging on for Zann's sake.
I am trying to be happy for Zann's sake.
I am living everyday as per normal for Zann's sake.
But Zann doesn's know Mummy is very depressed.
At this very moment.
Carbo Rants
Monday, May 14, 2007
The fats percentage in my body increased these days.
Too much unwanted carbo...how to rid them off ???
I have been binging on too much pastries.
First is my birthday cake.
Next is the raisin bread pudding I baked.
It's becoming a phobia liao..
and so I decided to swear off pastries
for good temporary...
The above shows my 4th slice from my birthday cake.
And half of what's left is still resting inside the fridge!
I have enough sugar, carbo or whatever u name it...
P.s. Right now I am feeling #&%%^^%#&.
It's my screwed up hormones from the stoopid painful PMS.
Anyway, just ignore me...
The 2nd Idobb gathering I went...
Sunday, May 13, 2007
is @ Wendy (clhw30) 's place yesterday.
It was a big gathering I have attended.
So many people, so much food, and and so many kids...
I don't think i have talked to everyone but still it was FUN!
I have brought my camera along but I didn't take any shots.
Below are the photos I have taken from Charmaine's shots.
And I sweat a lot on that day too.
Seeing (finally) some of the mummies after reading so much abt them...
I think we left about 6plus. The minute we reached home, Zann konk-ed out on her bed instantly. Tired.
***
Well, to all mummies (and to me too),
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY...
For me, no need expensive presents, am happy if Zann give me a kiss and hug one day when she is older...
17 months old
Saturday, May 12, 2007
Happy 17 months old to my Zann!
Her recent changes in this month:
Started to accept her one and only Pooh Bear soft toy.
This came as a big surprise to us. Zann never like soft toys in the past especially those furry ones. Her strong reaction is an evidence. But not this Pooh from my friend. She will hug and kiss it. Each time I said 'Bear', she ll start looking for it.
Pout and cry.
She has mood swing and cannot be scolded. Whenever, I say "NO" or "CANNOT", she will stare back at me with her red watery eyes and start to pout and then cry.
Pointing with forefinger.
Has learnt to point to the direction when I asked her where's the milk bottle, or things that she want. Best of all, she can point to me where's her nose when I asked.
Like to walk to the kitchen and play with the fridge magnets.
She knew where's the kitchen and even knew how to open the fridge. There was once she saw me taking ice cream from the fridge and asked me to give her. When I rejected her, she opened the fridge herself! At times, she would just stand in front of it...waiting for the food..hee
Still drool alot.
The drooling amount never decrease. But there is no sign of new tooth.
I had my birthday dinner ...
Friday, May 11, 2007
@ Triple 3 the buffet restaurant,
5F Meritus Mandarin.
But then didnt quite like the food overall. Cos not much variety to choose.
Mostly seafood and pastries, though I love their chocolates...
Like their ambience. They have the musicians/ violinist to provide entertainment.
Another year closer to the grave
Thursday, May 10, 2007
Yes. It will be another year closer to the grave. Tomorrow.
Mummy hits the big 3-0 tomorrow!
I think I don't look like it and ...I hope I don't look like it.
And you know what? I am feeling a tad melancholic now.
I wish I knew how to put things right.
I wish I am not the one gong through this.
I wish for happiness.
I wish I don't have to cry.
Waited but ended up a quarrel.
I am hurt. Physically and emotionally.
Yeah. It's only a birthday. My birthday.
The date just symbolises another year
closer to the grave.
If I am gone one day, would you miss me?
Anyone like this song?
It's by Landy. Click to listen.
祝我生日快乐
Lunchie @ Sakae
Tuesday, May 8, 2007
It's been a while since mum and me have lunch together outside.
I promised to give her a treat the other day.
Yesterday, was her off day and she has decided where to have lunch.
Let's have lunch at Sakae! and so we had a super late
brunch lunch...together with Zann.
That handphone
Sunday, May 6, 2007
How forgetful I have become..in a day...
Saturday, May 5, 2007
I have forgotten two items today.
Darlie toothpaste and a candy bar.
This morning woke up to realise that the toothpaste has almost finished.
(yeah..took me so long to realise can...)
And I hated today's weather. I hated the scorching sun.
Still, I dragged myself to go to NTUC...
Came home to realise I still missed it. I forgot to buy the toothpaste !
And worse, I wasn't even aware that Zann has taken a candy bar.
And ...and...and...the candy bar was not paid!
Wah lau eh...
reached home without toothpaste but an unpaid candy bar !!!....
******
I was feeding Zann her milk while AL was busy doodling...
AL: ok, I have finished...drawing both you and Zann. Confirm can make it... ME: Let me see...AL: Nice anot? ME: Hur..what's that? How come got two sticks? AL: ...........
Heh...does this picture show a mother feeding a daughter?
Eh... I am not being mean la...
But ...hor....I really can't help laughing.....It's funny can....hee
Rantatty Rant
Friday, May 4, 2007
SNEEZE.
And I keep sneezing today!
Is that a sign of falling sick soon...or
.....somebody's cursing or missing me ?
I cant fall sick. Zann has no one to take care of ...
I hate being lethargy all day. I am feeing blardy melancholic now can ...
How i wish i have civil servant friends
who can help me get the special rates...

That's 50% off published rates!
Her bear Part 2
Thursday, May 3, 2007
What can I say, the 'bond' between the it and her has increased.
Whenever I say 'Bear', she will search for it and walk out of the room with it.
Yes walk out on mummy heh...
The yellow bear now has become a dirty yellow bear
(not forgetting that it has stained with saliva). Hee
I thought the acceptance of Pooh Bear means she will allow
other soft toys into her life.
Unfortunately that was not the case. She still react strongly. Extremely. *slaps forehead*
Shouldn't a girl like soft toys ?
Excuse me are you a tomboy?
Wednesday, May 2, 2007
Every little actions/ things could make Zann laugh.
These days, she is in good mood lor.....
It was AL's cap....
I was trying to entertain her by letting her to wear the cap on her head.
Look how happy she was when I put the cap on her...
Come to think of it, does she she look like a tomboy to you?
Last time when Zann was younger,
Mum and Auntie Dino told me it was a good good thing
if Zann looks like a boy!
Cos I will have a son in my next pregnancy.
Hur... how true was that 'pantang' belief?
Anyway, I am not planning for a sibling for her.
Not even thinking of it..Having Zann is definitely enough for me. *Grins
"You want Ben & Jerry anot?"
AL: Why are you eating so much these days?ME: Hur..cannot mehAL: Got left some for me anot? ME: Eh..没有 lei. I duno u want.... hee AL: ....I had my Ben & Jerry and I...I...I...finished a whole tub of it...in a day.
(AL and even myself also can't believe it).
Utter Bliss.
Calories? *Shrugs*
Reminisce rant on Labour Day
Tuesday, May 1, 2007
I suppose SAHM like me don't get the perks of celebrating Labour Day.
I do afterall have holidays almost every other day. *Grins
Anyway, May is my another favourite month.
Cos it holds
Mother's Day..and and and ...
my birthday next Fri...hohoho
Had you ever looked back at things that had changed,
and wonder if those days...those memories, could be revived again?
Yeah..I did that. I actually found myself ..thinking of ... the good old days.
ME: Do you realise that our 生日 last year and this year, the same?AL: Why same?ME: Last year, we watched 'Superman' on your birthday, and this year we are going to watch 'Spiderman' on my birthday lor..AL: Hmmm..yah hor. Life is a joke...we watched comics on birthdays ME: *frown*That really sux. Hearing those crappy words from him.
We are not jokers in life okay. *Ponders*
I know not what lies ahead.
But for now, life has got to go on while I search for my answer...
