CJ7

Peng bought a CJ7 toy for isaac after she knew that he loved the movie. He's so happy when he saw the toy.






Isaac Throwing his diaper (n_n)

My baby has finally learnt to throw his diaper to the dustbin after each diaper change. I'm very proud of him. When i told him to throw away the used diaper, he'll pick up the diaper and walk straight to the kitchen, carefully walked over the safety gate and placed the diaper in the bin. Hee!

Accident at Ah Ma's House

Isaac come back from ah ma house with a bruised toenail. My mum so guilty tat she cried as she relate to me wat happen.

My mum brought isaac home at 10+am. She thought peng still in bed and wanted to bring isaac over to wake her up. But peng left for work early coz something cope up with her workplace. While Ah ma was lighting the joss sticks preparing for a pray (with isaac), she din't realise that isaac had went in bro's room and next thing she heard something landed hard and isaac loud cries. A paper holder or something had landed on isaac's toe and mum said isaac cried non-stop. Poor boy.



Frankly speaking, mum's hse no different from a rubbish dump. The whole hse fulled of rubbish man. Been nagging them to clear up the hse for years. Even the utility room was fulled of rubbish right up to the ceiling, leaving a small walking space leading to the window for her to hang clothes. The sofa fully occupied with plastic bags, shopping bags, etc. Wah piang!

Peng and mum, PLEASE THROW AWAY WHATEVER YOU DUN NEED! The whole house is like rubbish dump! The coffee table is fulled of unwanted pamphlets, flyers, used 4D papers, unfinished sweets, gums, blah blah blah.... The dining table dumped with more bags, boxes and dunno wat. Bros's room and utility room also fulled of bags, boxes and dunno wat. PLEASE THROW! If you know that you'll need this item in future n not now, then buy it in future. Now for goodness sake, just THROW! Can't bear to throw then dun BUY! Sigh.... I'm so sick saying the same things again and again... The whole house is a hazard. No wonder isaac will get injured in that hse. Everything is lying everywhere around. If there's a fire, this godamnhse sure kena totally burned 1st.

Crayola stuff finally arrived

Crayola having discount and there's a mom holding a spree so decided to get some washable crayons for isaac. The stuffs finally arrived yesterday. The crayons look smaller than i expected but fits isaac's lil hands nicely.




Box of 24 lil crayon. Cost - US2.99

I put a piece of paper of the floor and guided isaac how to draw with his right hand. (Realised he's more "skilful with his left hand thou) He had fun and even drew on the floor! As claimed, these crayons are easily cleaned off with a damp cloth. So i just let him show off his art skills on the paper and floor.



Tadoodles which require no caps and it's shaped to fit into a child's palm. Cost - US6.49

Hmm.. This fits nicely in isaac's palm too. Tap 2-3 times on the paper and you'll see watermarks coming out. Leaves a wet trail of colour after you draw so you'll stained yr hands easily. I should have gotten the Tadoodles crayons instead of the watermarks. So i find tat he's still too young to play with this.

Lasik?

Last nite, my vision on my left eye is blurring and i'm double images. Today when i wore my contacts, same thing happen to my left eye. I believe degree has went up again for left eye. So far never met anyone with such high degree like me except for my siblings and dad hee. Been thinking about going for lasik for the past decade. There seems to be a lot promo going on for lasik surgery like LSC and EEC.

Told jason bout my left eye blurry visions. He said like tat also jialiat, might as well go for a lasik pre-assessment checkup and see if i'm suitable for lasik. Been researching around and seems like i've never come across anyone with high myopia like mine giving their post-lasik reviews. :(

Wearing specs since 7, i'm serious sick of waking up in the morning, blind as a bat. Lasik has always been a dream. But of coz, i've to be prepared for the post-op complications as well.

Slimming update

Oh well... sigh.... Hmm... just weigh myself. 45.5kg. This product maybe just dun work on me ba... anyway going to finish liao so i think exercise is a better and more effective method for me..

I can't believe i spend 210+ bucks on this powdered drink and pills... and worse, totally no effect. sigh...

Somehow i realised that replacing a normal meal with this, will lower my metobolism rate coz i'm not getting any food intake the whole day! ... The pills stops my craves for food (though i still munch on crunch bars hee) And i'm still taking fried chicken, fries, oily food. Guess this also contributes to why it doesn't work huh? hee

No such thing as a so called "elixir" which can turn you from an ogre to Princess Fiona... If i can maintain my expected weight by exercising, why would i spend $ on this stuff if it still require me to exercise?

Aiyo, wat's wrong with me? I'm contradicting my own beliefs again! I need a break. now.

I surf thru alot and many pple said that this company dun give good worksmanship and lack of creative designs :(

Busy busy busy

Meet up with Khoo and told him to help us to fix at 32k nett. Coz we still hv to pay for lightings, aircon, sanitaryware, blah blah blah... which can easily go up to 40k.

Hope tat Khoo can manage to convince his boss to reduce to 32k...

花钱买罪受 Aiyo!

Today's the 1st day of my slimming program. After feeding isaac's breakfast, i went to make the protein shake drink. I mixed it with mango juice coz tat's what i used to do when i took herbalife 2yrs back. Tat time was just taking it to maintain my weight at 44kg. I take a sip at the drink, AIYO! It just remind of the terrible taste tat i had endured for a long period when i took herbalife 2yrs ago. Bo bian... Have to finish and finish it fast. Coz today's really a busy day. I still need to cook isaac's lunch, wash & hang all the laundry (tat's a really huge pile i'm talking about coz it's been raining for the past 3days) and wash & hang isaac's laundry. I need to finish it within 1hr coz mum brought isaac back home to play with peng. Well, at least i got it done, phew! Also thanks to mum coz if isaac's home while i'm doing the chores, i sure die... Isaac very very active and attention-seeking nowadays.

After the chores, feed isaac lunch, shower, feed milk, blah blah blah... i finally got him to sleep at 4pm. Time for the yucky lunch shake drink. This time i mix with manogolia fresh milk coz i always love this brand of milk. I tasted it... Worse! Terrible sticky with "sour milk" taste. Sigh... This is really a typical example of 花钱买罪受

Maybe i shd just stick to doing exercise and spend longer time on the x trainer. Nowadays really so busy with isaac that i dun even hv time to shit! Ya, i noe "no time to exercise" is not an excuse. Din't i previously exercise at 1am when they are asleep? 7700calories burned to lose 1kg.. Guess it's back to counting calories time after i've finished the program. But i really hope this program thingy helps coz i weighed myslf right after dinner and it showed 45kg. Very nice.

Slimming Routine Start Tomorrow

Bought the Herbalife Advanced Program online at 5pm and surprisely the delivery man came in the evening. So efficient!

Somehow i took a long time before considering to popping pills to slim down again. Well, i did lose 20+kg which i gained from my pregnancy thru diet and exercise and i told myself to believe that taking pills won't be a long term thingy to lose weight. Well, really find myself contradicting over my own beliefs. Anyway, already buy liao so just eat lah.. This package will only last for a month. I just need to lose the last 2kg which is clinging deadly on me. I'm now 45.5kg so shall see in a month's time.




Somehow when jason saw the herbalife pills, he actually laughed. He said i'm such a sucker for junk food and chocolates, how can i curb myself to stop snacking? Ya true lah.. But i will TRY to stop the snacking and concentrate on the program for a month.


Sigh... Opening the fridge and i find my sweet indulgence (there's alot of chips in the storerm as well) Really hv to buck up my mentality man

Stupid & Careless Amateur Groomer!

I'm soooo angry! Sent momo for her grooming and she came back with a wound. Jason went to pick her up and was told that the groomer had accidentally grazed her leg with the razer. They had disinfected the wound and spray something which acts with a glue to "glue" up the wound.





This morning, i was shocked when i saw the wound. It's nothing like a cut at all!! Almost 2-3mm thick of skin was skined off and it measured ard 3cm by 1.5cm!! How can they lied tat it's a small cut! I'm so angry i get jason to call up those idiots and demand them to send momo to the vet immediately. I'm so sad tat i cried coz momo din't whine but she did acted very quiet after the grooming. I'm so sorry momo. Bloody idiot, they even asked jason whether the wound is gathering pus. CB lah! Must kena pus then they willing to bring momo to the vet?! They came within 30mins and i scolded them how come the wound turns out like tat. Darkie came with another gal (she's the bloody idiot amateur groomer lah!) and both were shocked with the wound. I told them i want a letter from the vet as well. They sent momo to the vet and came bk within 40min with the letter and medicine. They'll come back on tues to fetch momo to the vet for a review and decide if she needed stitches. Stupid ma! 1 look at the wound will tell anyone tat it needed stitches. Will monitor momo in the meantime. My poor momo... I'm really very very sad... Momo has always been well-known for being a very good and obedient dog when grooming.





The Bloody big wound.. Does it look at a small cut in any way!!!??! Bloody stupid groomer. Though she has admitted her mistake n apologized sincerely but i just can't forgive her!



My Poor Momo... She looked so tired and weak. She has never been wounded for all her past grooming.

Ehub @ Downtown east

Saw the tuesday show on ch U and they were introducing this place Ehub. Since it jason's R-off tmolo plus the luxury of hving Kel's car for the next 5days, we decided to bring isaac there.
Long long journey. Maybe i'm used to staying within city area so i really find 35mins of car-ride abit long. Isaac fell asleep in my arms while in the car. We reached there at 2pm. Decided to take lunch 1st. 1st restaurant we passed is already very tempting. Can't rmb the name, bul--- something.. Staff mostly looked like thai but very friendly coz they kept picking up the toy that isaac threw on the floor. Notty boi!







After the meal, we proceed to 3rd level - Explorer Kids. Ooh... it's damn ex considering it's like a "high-class playground". Per entry is $20! The lady told us that if we join as member, the fee would be $9. Hmm.. looks okie.. We paid $18 in total with 2pairs of socks. Not bad. Isaac had lotsa fun there but he's afraid of the ball pool. Maybe he'll enjoy it when he's older. Anyway we'll definitely come again coz his membership will last till he's 12yrs old. There's many themes inside like the cave, the forest, and a huge 3-4levels playground, etc. We played for 1-2hrs and took a ride in their indoor ferris wheel. Couldn't take pics coz jason's hp low batt. Isaac dozed off in my arms on the way home. Was a joyful and fun day for him.

长江7号 aka Chang Jiang No. 7 or CJ7

Just watched the show 长江7号 last nite on demand tv. It was not a bad show after all except tat the storyline was a simple and heartwarming one. I like happy endings and i find the ending for this show is a happy one though CJ7 did passed away to save Stephen chow.

CJ7 is really really cute!!! Except for the poo bullet-shooting part haha... Guess momo will be damn pissed off if i hv CJ7 hehehe.. Poor gal, been neglecting her recently coz busy with isaac. Must sayang her tonite. Guess this show seems to be reminding to show more love to momo also.


The lovely CJ7

Kelvin & Shoan's ROM on 1 Jul 2008

Jason and ah 7 took leave on this special day. Woke up early to feed isaac and prepare to leave the home ard 1pm. The time they booked was at 1.50pm. We reached at 1.15pm and saw granny, auntie and uncle Q. They are so happy to see isaac. Think the last time they saw isaac was Sep last yr.

Dad, me, Great-granny and Aunt Q-mei


The couple arrived at 1.45pm and we all went in to witness the ceremony.


The happy couple Shoan & Kelvin

I'm very noisy inside the room while the ceremony was going on. No choice, mummy had to stop taking photos and carry me outside.

Happily Married!

Taking pictures with the happy couple
It was picture-taking time after the ceremony. Isaac also tired and taking a nap. Guess he must be tired also coz he woke up early at 9am. Usually i just let him wake up by himself at 10 or 11am. Since he's asleep, jason and i seized this golden opportunity to to grab a puff n take photos. Well, we can still recalled wonderful memories during our ROM at 2001. Tat time, we also took alot of pictures. Times sure flies fast.




After the photo-taking session, we all proceed to New Harbour Restaurant at Tanjong Pagar for a buffet session. The food not bad especially the beef pasta and fried fish. After we finished the meal, it's only 4+pm so we decided to move on to vivocity for a short while before heading back hm to prepare isaac's dinner.

I just can't stop taking photos haha.... jialiat even while changing isaac's diapers i also happily clicking nonstop.


We took him to toyrus.. Wanted to get him a bicycle or car but not much options there and the cars are soooo ex! So we just let him try every single car there and he seems satisfied!

Then we headed to giant to get some groceries and cereal for isaac. While jason was paying at the cashier, i ahead straight to isaac's favourite barney seat to give him a treat on the ride! While taking pics, the camera low batt (must be me lah, keep on taking pic) and it off itself after i took the last shot of isaac on the big bird seat.
