Lele's new toy

For some, sunday is a rest day but for hubs n me, sunday is consider a busy day...we always try to slp in late on sun as sometimes we do go for late nite movies on sat..like yest, we watch the 9.40pm Terminator...so reached hm at ard 12am...

So we slp in till 10pm today..heheheh...If nt for mummy's call,i tink we will slp later ar...hehe..after breakie at teck whye, we came bak to do some hse work...1s ting 1st is to clear the laundry, which is overflowing with clothes lo..it's been a wk since i last wash the clothes le.. hehe..so quickly put into the washin machine...

Den its off to ironin clothes for me while hubs' duty is to vacuum the room, clean the fans n air con filter, change his fish tank water, n washin his "bao bei".....Since hubs is on reservist for the next 2 wks, i need nt iron his working clothes, onli need to iron his civillian clothes n jeans...which is pretty easy job...his shirts n pants requires more time as needs to be more smart looking...

After we r done with the chores, we took a late lunch at ard 3pm b4 headin bak to his parents hse..his mum n sis are both out today, so we chatted abit with my FIL and then head bak to my hse at 6pm for dinner at mummy's place...

Then we went to BPP where I got my long awaited camera Panasonic FX-48...I'm been eyein it for a long time le..Its 25mm wide lenses caught my attention and since hubs n me always have trouble fittin into the screen and also to take the surroundin, i figure out that a wide angle camera will allow more surrounding to be fitted into the pic although it meant that everything will be smaller in size....

Well, we will neber noe if we dun try ritez..I'll post up the pics once i try takin it with hubs during this wkend..tt is if he can come hm frm his training....till then, i'll be exploring the various functions of the camera 1st...

whahahah i've got a NEW TOY....lalalalala

HUbs working on sat

hubs went to his IPPT again this morning..this is his 2nd last chance b4 he will kena RT..whahah..actually he failed by 3s last wk de..n he took the test 1 day b4 his window period closes and so offically he needs to go RT..but then god is on his side..he is due for his reservist this wk and shd he passes the IPPT arranged by his unit, he can clear 2 windows together..Last and current yr window..and so the good news came while I was still in my slumber slp today at 9.30am..He finally cleared it..which means to say, he will onli need to start worryin about passin after 24th May 2010...whahah..I tink he will onli worry about it when it is near to 24th May 2011...he always wait for the last min b4 chioning to go take his test...whahahha...

His barang barang for his in-camp

Anyway, as he is on reservist during closing period, he needs to go bak to his office today to finish up the reporting part...that's the problem with AR personnel...there r tons of reporting to do during month end..I used to cannot understand but now since we r both doin AR, i can understand better..mine is half way done yet lo...still waitin for my FM to finish her input b4 i can continue...so tiz wkend, i need not bring work home to do lo..yippppeeeeeeee

So i went for breakie alone this morning and did my grocery shoppin with my new FAIRPRICE PLUS card(hubs applied the card for my use de)..whahah we were persuaded by 1 guy in JP fairprice on Mother's Day to sign up the card and since i always do my shoppin there, y not? And also, I can collect link points when i doin my shoppin at other places like Metro, Marks and Spencer etc...I always buy my biscuits there..hehe..

Anyway today, i realli outdid myself...on top of my groceries, I 假厉害to go offer to help hubs buy his 3 1.5 L bottles for his in camp trainin usage..my arms nearly broke when i walk home carrying them and my other groceries...when i reached my hse, the little chap in my hse (tenant's child) was luffin at me when i dropped all my stuff on the sofa as i am too tired..1 yrs old onli, noe how to luff at others..win liaoz..

The stuff i brought...super heavy can...

Man, I'm getting restless at home and haven been studyin as hard as i shd have been...promise to hit the books once i come home frm lunch with mummy..but that is t b4 we finish shoppin at causeway point la...whahaha...and tt is if hubs haven finish his work yet...if he finishes chances r we r goin to watch the Terminator tonitez....yippeeeee...happie sat....

it Has bEen 8 yEars

Its been 8 years since we got together..more or less, the celebrations gets milder n milder by the year..hehe reduce to onli eatin a more special dinner on the special day...yest, hubs can to pick me up after work..he is on reservist for 3 wks n yest was the 1st day...on our special day 28th May...

I oredi "booked"him to go fo dinner at my choosen location- Beach culture at Pasir Ris park..heheh i read in a mag that the ambience there is quite nice and so i decided to check it out. The 1 n onli time i've been there was years bak when i went to the then Fisherman village with my ex colleagues for dinner. But I tink it has been close down some time back....

The park is quite big i tink cuz we went to the wrong carpark at the 1st try and the stupid GPS couldnt give a choice of carparks. In the end, my rely on the good old street directory to guide us to the correct carpark.We spend sometime searching for the restaurant we we reached as their sign board is nt obvious lo. they have another name it seems- Water Cross....

We were sitting at the outdoors. Abit dark i shd say, althought there are candles on every table but still have some difficultly to read the menu..Jie have to use his hp touch light to shine on his menu.hahah...erm becuz yest was a relatively warm day, thus it is nt as windy as i've imagine it will be..but luckily, they have huge standing fans ard there to keep the temperature cool...i remember that the last time i went there, it was quite cooling to eat by the sea side...

We couldnt see the sea very well frm our table as its been block by the plants...at ard 8.30pm, there is a live performance by 1 female singer who entertained us throughout our dinner with some very nice old english songs...The food there is still okie and i love the fried chicken...yummy yummy,...

I guess the place is more for plp to chill out and have a drink or two and some snacks but nt a full dinner like us...we were the onli table who didnt order an alcholic drink...hahha...cuz we both dun drink de....anyway, i juz wanna check out the place ma since it is featured on the mags...

Overall, the experience there is nt bad, I would wan to try goin there on a afternoon so that can see the surrounding better but i tink will need wait till the weather turns cooler abit..which means shd be in nov or dec..hahaha...but it is realli super far frm our place...it would be ideal for my gals gathering session where we can tok and chill out there over some drinks...but given the location, i doubt we can go there lo...y can't they have 1 at the west coast side??haiz...

Anyway, i was tinkin over the past 8 years that we both went thru...frm being fwens, to startin a r/s to gettin married and finally to start a family in a few yrs time...times realli past by fast...without knowing, i have known him for 10 yrs, smtimes, it still amazes me on how we 2 met and got together..but i guess, its all fate....on tiz special day, there is no special words said, no special gift presented, no special surprise plan..juz a simple dinner together as usual onli at a more special place...well plp always say, "if you 2 are happie together, every day is a V-day" so i tink it applies in this case...if we r happie together, everyday is our special day...wouldnt it be???

happie birthday HUBS!!!

Happy Mummy's Day 2009

The celebration for my mum's mother's day cum bday celebration was yest. We booked a buffet dinner at Zhou's kitchen this year. This yr has the biggest attendees of all--7 of us...the 5 of us plus 2 new members- Hubs & Val (My younger bro's gf)...

The dinner started at 6pm and is suppose to end at 8pm as agreed with the restuarant..Luckily i made a reservation last wk ar, the queue was super long when we reached lo, but we were ushered in when at 6pm sharp..hehe my mum was happy cuz she need not queue up, moreover, she is super hungry(as usual).

I actually didnt noe that the dinner was a self help buffet..Hubs n me assume that it's a ala-cate buffet as previously when we went to the alexandra outlet for high tea, we were orderin frm their menu...

In any case, i tink my parent njoyed the dinner though they are not eating much..my dad was like a food inspector goin round n round the food to see wat's new has been brought out...

This yr's celebration was a quiet 1 as we juz treated my mum to a dinner unlike the previous yrs where she will asked for gifts, this yr she onli went to bug my dad to buy her a new hp...As i didnt noe wat to get for her, we gave her an ang bao to let her buy wat she wants...

Hubs n I went shoppin while the rest of them went home...Happie mother's day n bday mum!!!

Miss u all

The last time we had a grp gatherin was in March where without fail for the past few yrs after graduation, we will meet to celebrate our bdays...The last time i met 2 of them is in Apr where we went for the compliementary buffet frm my wedding banquet hotel..

Well, suddenly i miss my sisters alot!!!i miss the days we go eat n drink coffee and gossip...Although it is not easy to oragnised a gatherin as we have different schedules but i still wanna meet them leh..

Many times I wan to msg them for gatherin de, but then smtimes due to work, sch n family, i will haf to miss out the chance for gatherin...den keep tinkin of next time...i tink i seriously need get my arse off the sofa n move to organise our next outing..whahaha....

till then sisters!!take care ya...

Hospitalization leave

Let me start with the check up..Reached NUH at 10am, as expected, went thru health screening 1st b4 we r allowed to go upstairs for my check up. Jie has to register himself as I haf an appointment letter and he was an accompanying relative. But we both have to wear the masks for protection..abit stuffy..but its 4 our own good..

When we reached the clinic, the nurse check me in and asked me to pass all my tings to hubs before leading me into the procedure rooms. Hubs was to wait ouside for ard 2 hrs. The procedure will take 20min but i will need to rest for 1 or 2 hr before i can be discharged.
Was beri nervous, tot hubs can acc me into the room but then he was shut outside. Man, i realli
dunno wat is awaiting me inside.

A nurse came to take my height and weight and asked me to changed into the procedure clothing. Then another nurse came alot to help to inject a needle into the vein on my hand. I was damn scare can, needles!!!! agggrrrr...I tink i sound like a scary cat cuz i keep asking her whether it was painful to put in the needle, whether the procedure will be painful etc....

She was beri patient wif me, chatting with me when preparing to inject the needle, i tried all my best to hold bak the tears as she inject the needle into my hand, she said it is for the doc to inject the painkiller and sedative.After injecting the needle, she secured it with 2 layers of tape... den, i was sent out to wait as i was the 4th patient to be scheduled. I tink they are tranferrin patients frm the wards to do the scope aso as I can see 1 ah ma being pushed into the procedure rm and she look like she is sedated..

I waited for like an hr b4 i was called in. Once inside, i got more nervous, they made me lie on the bed and started the standard procedure on askin my name, IC no etc. den the doc came and was about to start the procedure when i suddenly asked why they didnt give me the sedative. I dun wan to stay awake thru the procedure!!!!

The nurse replied tat they are injectin now but then the doc juz went ahead wif the procedure!! I was damn scare can...At 1st, it was quite bearable and I stole peeps at the monitor, with my colon shown on it...but then dunno at which point, it got so painful tt i keep shouting to the nurses that i cannot stand the pain any more...

I grab her hands, but the onli tink she can do is to pat me, n keep askin me to take deep breath...i tink i teared abit becuz of the pain but then juz as the pain got unbearable, the procedure end and i was wheel out to rest in the recovery ward..

After the procedure, I am not sure why there was so much wind in my body tat i keep fartin. the nurses advice me to fart as much as i can to clear the wind..it was so malu..to keep fartin while every 1 was sound asleep in the ward.. I was aso wondering why the heck i was so alert why every other patient is sound asleep after the procedure...

Becuz i didnt eat frm the previous nite and the induced diarrhea, i was hungry to the core, so i called for the nurses to come and at 1st they refuse to let me get up but when they learnt tat i was hungry, the let me get up to drink a cup of milo and a few biscuits..

After that they decided to check me out as they realised i am not sleeply...wahaha...it was later that when i saw the report den i realise i was sedated..onli given pain killers...stupid doc, bluff me tat i will be sedated...idiot...to tink i keep wonderin why didnt i fall aslp...

The real torture came when i reached hm...my head was throbbing with pain, it was so painful tat my head nearly brust...after takin a bath i went to rest, but during the evenin after hubs left for his class, i woke up to vomit..not once, not twice but 6 times...i tink i nearly vomit out my guts lo...i nearly want to go to A&E le lo as they instructed me b4 i was discharge tat if there is excessive vomittin, i shd go bak to the hospital...

I went bak to sleep after vomitting...and didnt take any dinner at all...later in the nitez when hubs came hm den he make milo and brought bread 4 me as i haf vomitted out all my lunch...i felt better after tat...though vommitting stopped, but diarrhea still continue till today..thus i stayed hm the whole day today...


Although it was torturing to go thru the procedure, but seeing that the results are ok makes me feel so good. And most importantly, i have hubs beside me to take care of me and my 2 mothers to take care of my food..heheh..felt so loved...but neber agian would i want this experience le...

torTUrIn mySelF

I've started on the consumption for the orally induced diarrhea as prescribed by the doc. Man, the drink was damn awful can..Was wondering whether the drink is for inducing diarrhea or inducing vomiting. It took me more than the suggested time to finish the drink.

To tink i ate quite a lot today as my MIL cooked curry chicken and some shark-fin soup taste alike for us to eat. She was aso quite worried bout my results. Frankly speaking, it felts good to haf another mother who is worried bout me.Heheh... My mummy is preparing porridge for me as dinner as i haf to take smthing like after 6pm to prepare for the induced diarrhea.

The effect kicks in 1hr after the 1st dosage. Keep goin to the toilet till my legs felt wobby. In the end when I couldnt take it anymore, I juz went to sleep. Not before waking up twice to run to toilet.

I am now getting ready to go for my checkup. Hubs will be accompanyin me there, getting more n more nervous, becuz of the results and also becuz of the procedures. I am afraid of pain u see, so quite nervous.

Becuz of the Swine flu, i reckon that hospital will be have a more stringent check on the visitors goin n and out thus we decide to go there earlier in case there is additional time needed for the screening.

Very hungry now but gotta wait till my check up is over before I can eat anything. Now i try to occupied myself by thinking of wat to eat after the check up, that is every thing is well after the check up.

Actually, I am very worried bout the check up results, been losin sleep over this for the past few days, but still gotta carry on with my daily activities as per normal. I keep tellin myself to be positive and treat tiz as a normal checkup but still, i couldnt help but feel afraid. Well, tat's normal, isnt it?

Early saT mORnIN

As promise, hubs brough tme to Coach to check out the bags...but i still haven figure the size leh. If the size i asked val to buy is the smaller 1 den i will be beri dui..i wan the bigger 1...but on the other hand there is onli 2 sizes shown on the webbie..and frm the photos, it seems to be quite big lehz...agggrrrrr...

Well, i tink i gonna go again..whahah, tiz time get a gal to go with me..N i'm gonna wait a few more days n change USD le, with the economy downturn plus the swine flu, tink USD will drop...

Hubs went IPPT early this morning..I'm struck at hm nw waitin for him to come bak to pick me up to go breakie...Just threw the clothes in the machine and while waiting, I started to pick up my books to read..exam is on 10th June and i have not even started. well done...

Later hubs is goin work, so i have the day to my own today...goin clear the clothes 1st as they are piling up then its bak to the books...
