Stop, please!

The most frequent sentence i have been saying these few days is "i wanna change my iphone 4 to iphone 5", actually i know my man has been irritated by my sentence, LOL. So do i as he has been saying that he wants to get one of those fender acoustic guitars for more than a month. Gosh, please stop mentioning it again and please go order what you want, ok?!

Frequent buyer

If you're currently looking for stanton mixers then better you take a look on those stanton mixers at guitar center where they usually provide cheap yet good quality stanton mixers. I have never got myself any musical related stuffs but my man did, that's why i can recommend you to take a look at that online store. My man in fact is a frequent buyer! 

Vacation starts soon

Baked a pan of maltose buns this afternoon which they are also the last batch of buns i have baked in August. Yeah, am going back to M'sia on this coming Monday and going to stay in there for more than 3 weeks. Can't wait to taste those yummy foods, especially DURIAN! I miss it a LOT!

Moving house

We will be moving in to our new house this coming Christmas, yeah, just can't wait now! Do you know that i have been waiting for our new house for more than years? Finally we can get the key! *Jumping Up high*!!!

And, finally we can say goodbye to this matchbox sized house which it is definitely too small for our family! With a new house, my kids can now have their own room without sharing one small room, gosh, i know my kids have been waiting for having their own and private bedroom too!

Apart from all the happiness of having a new home, the most headache things now is "RENOVATION". Oh, money, spending money is like using water now! Luckily, we have got our cheap pipes from u bolts! It does save a lot of our money! As for others, gosh, sigh, money sometimes is just not enough. 

But, i know hubby will still do the best for his family!

Messy at home

My house is so messy as we have slight fixing at home. Been calling the guy to come to install the undermount drawer slides for all of my cabinets and he finally came today. The undermount drawer slides full extension can provide more useable space, that's good for storing my stuffs! I seriously hope he can install them quickly and leave my house as my kids are behaving like monkeys when there is an outsider at my house. 

Donate a guitar

I have donated a guitar to my daughter's class as requested by her class teacher. I was actually reluctant to get the guitar because i initially decided to get orff instruments which are more cheaper than her mentioned guitar for her class, but since her teacher called me and had a long wind talked to me, so off i agreed to donate a good quality and expensive guitar to them. The bad part is, we can't take back the guitar even the semester ends. 

Wholesale printing.

If you are currently looking for large number printing then you can absolutely take a look on zooprinting.com for wholesale printing. I am looking for photo printing too, but i wonder if they give photo printing? Well, those photos are actually needed urgently because i need to frame them and hang on the wall. I have bought quite a number of frames last week while they had great promotion. I paid less than hundred to get almost 20 frames, quite a cheap deal, isn't it? 

Learning guitar

The boy is going to learn guitar soon, so hubby thinks of passing down his old guitar for the boy and save some money for not getting a brand new one. But he has to find guitar parts from musicians friend first before he can really pass down his old guitar as some parts have already worn out after years of using. I don't know how long does my boy last playing guitar as he always shows short interest span on everything!

Hokkaido Chiffon cake

I hardly online these days because been busy baking in the kitchen. Baked a batch of Hokkaido Chiffon cake yesterday afternoon which they all gone finished as a dinner's dessert by kids. According to my kids, the custard cream melted in their mouth and the cake texture is very soft and smooth. Good, i just like to see them eat, the more they eat, the more passions i have in baking. 

Stomach pain

My friend asked me whether i could find a cheap yet high quality full color flyer prints for him or not, of course i CAN with the aid of technology. I could just simply find him the website with just a few clicks of my mouse! I even stumbled upon one important health issue while browsing the flyer printing website for him. I do need some knowledge to cure my stomach pain, gosh, i have been suffering stomachache for a week and have visited 2 doctors but their medicine just could not stop my pain. Sigh....really cannot drink lemon + mint leaves + cucumber infused drink.

Shopping Online again

I have ordered my GLAM GLOW mud mask from hqhair dot com, paid only £34.99, the most importantly they provide FREE worldwide delivery. I have actually never used this mud mask before, but been told it is a superb product which can give immediate camera-ready skin look and that's why it has been widely used by Hollywood Entertainment industries. Hehehe, now i just can't wait to receive mine. Other than ordering this mud mask, i ordered a tub of Egyptian Magic cream too which is good to be applied on eczema skin. 

Her 4th birthday soon...

Saw some promotional products that i would like to get for my girl's 4th birthday. Yeah, how time flies, she is going to celebrate her birthday this coming Saturday at her class and another round of celebration next Monday which is her actual birthday date. Her goodies bags for her classmates are well prepared, even her birthday gown is already arrived and hanging in her closets. I wanna give her a big surprise and i just can't wait to see her beaming with delight.

Getting one more iPad

I am seriously wanting to get one more iPad so that every kid has their own iPad and less fighting for holding it. Currently i have 2, but just not enough for 3 kids. I have been so tired to hear them fight for holding the iPad, no matter how i stop them, they still fight for it. But their daddy disagrees with my point as he prefers to get ableton live 8, and he says the kids instead of being satisfied with every luxury gadgets by their parents, they should have learnt how to share the limited things among the siblings. True enough, but...i just cannot resist from getting one more iPad! Help....

Subscribe to another VPN service!

All the while i have been quite satisfied with the vpn service provided by strongvpn, but this morning, i could not connect to the vpn at all, for both my laptop and iPhone. I was pretty in rush to have vpn to connect to some blocked website, so without much choices, i went to get myself another vpn. I found it from taobao and paid only RMB17/month which is rather cheaper than what i have from strongvpn. Perhaps i should stop using strongvpn which its monthly fees is too expensive and it seems rather unstable recently!

Smoking cigar

I went to pub with my hubby when i was in kk for CNY holidays. On that day, i even met one of my old classmate at the pub whom i have not seen for more than 10 years. So we sat, dance and cheers together. He even passed my hubby a cigar to smoke. I actually didn't mind if my hubby took cigarette but i was not fine with him taking cigar. But since we were at the pub and we were with my friend, i just could not show my face to stop him from smoking cigar!

Maytag Washing Machine

I have been thinking to get a bigger washing machine for my family. What we have now is actually can load 5kg of laundry which is definitely not enough for a family of five. My neighbor has suggested me to get Maytag which is pretty famous brand in most household. She even told me that they have simple request on maytag washer repair if the washing machine breaks down. Perhaps i should really consider getting a bigger Maytag washing machine for my family before the raining season really comes. 

Industrial Products

If you currently looking for hand wheels with handles, then you definitely can drop by to ReidSupply where it is a place selling variety choice of industrial products for every manufacturing company at reasonable prices. If you are interested, you can even order your mini catalog to take a detailed look on their available products before you place your order. At their website, you can also have free CAD downloads. Do check it out. 

Hot weather

We are already in town since two days ago. The kids do not really like staying here due to the hot weather, but I enjoy myself very much, especially the good foods here.

Took the kids to go swimming at one of the famous hotel here, and smartpool robotic pool cleaner amused the kids a lot, so was me too. Never expected we could see such innovative and creative thing here, so we truly lucky yesterday.

Today we will mostly stay at home and help my in laws to prepare the reunion dinner.

Happy Chinese New Year, everyone!

Les Paul studio

If you wanna look for cheap yet good quality les paul ingredients then you better hunt your precious les paul things from les paul studio! Hubs bought one electric guitar last Christmas, he simply loves it to bit and the most important is, he bought it very cheap, in short, just a fraction of the price of others selling at other musical stores. So, if you are also looking for one, do hoop over there and take a look. 

Fox fur and hat

I wanted to get this fox fur, but it's too expensive till i didn't feel like opening my wallet and pay for it. I actually like this fox fur a lot, and you can see the dried fox head at the end side of the fur too. Well, maybe you will afraid when you see the dried fox head, but i love it so much. LOL. I told my man that maybe he could get me one of those fox hats as i would love having fox hat too. Of course, the better is to have this fox fur!

Studio Mic

My hubs gave me lots of words when i told him i wanted to get a rabbit fur. He said he would save the money to get himself a studio microphone at Musician's Friend  rather than spending a thousand to get me a fur coat! How sad when my dear one said this to me. I actually really like to get the fur coat but unluckily the seller doesn't allow me to pay by installment. :(

Healthy Chips

People like to comment me when they get known that i always "feed" chips to my kids. Hey, please don't simply comment people when you do not know there is something called healthy chips. Chips do not mean junk food, some more there is nothing wrong when you feed your kids moderately. Sigh, i am so sad that those people who surrounding me are too silliness to know all these basic knowledge. 

English Speaking Practice

My elder boy has just joined the English Speaking Practice class recently and he loves going to the class a lot. I was told the teacher is friendly and funny, that's why my son loves going to the class. I actually wanted to send him to oral class when he was in Standard 1 but I kept procrastinating my plan due to expensive tuition fee.The current oral class was introduced by my neighbor whom her son has been going to too. The center is at prime location and its design is modern as well. Personally I like their classroom desks very much because they simply look comfy for everyone who attending the class. Of course the most importantly I like sending my son to this center is because their tuition fee is most affordable one!

Moet & Chandon

I bought a champagne for my hubby, as his 40th birthday present. I like this Moet & Chandon a lot and bet he would like drinking it too. Other than this bottle of champagne, i have booked a table at one romantic steak house as well. As for my kids, they are going to sing "Oppa Gangnam Sytle" for their daddy. How funny!!

40th birthday present

I have mentioned a lot of times that my hubby loves playing guitar, and even mentioned that he likes buying guitars despite he already has few guitars at home. But i know nothing can stop him from buying more guitars as collection, so i didn't feel shock when he told me he wants to get superb PRS Guitars at Musicians friend for his 40th birthday present. How pity of him since he have to pay for his own birthday present! 

One can never have enough guitar.

When one likes playing guitar, he most probably like buying guitar as well. Just like my hubby who can never have enough guitars! Other than guitars, he likes having all other relevant accessories as well. I don't know all those about so i didn't give any comment when he told me he would like to get the great dbx driverack pa from guitar center, what's more i am not one who is going to pay for it. Hahaha....

If i had a white Christmas

If you are staying in New Orleans, you definitely can get yourself some high quality NOLA patios. How sad that i am not staying there otherwise i believe i would have white Christmas! I actually have been hoping to have snowy Christmas since i was a little, but until now it is still a daylight dream which seems so hard to get achieved! Well, if i really can have a white Christmas i will get my family a real pine Christmas tree as well!!

Lunch at Station 1

My lunch ~ fried fish fillet with rice, taking it at Station 1 with my friend after we done our grocery shopping at Jusco this morning. After lunch, we spent another 2 hours chatting and drinking there. It was almost 3pm by the time i reached home. I actually tonight going to braise a pot of pork knuckles but since i just came back home not long ago and do not have enough time to defrost the meat so i have already decided to bring the kids eating outside later. I prefer dine out, easier for me since the maid is not coming tonight.

Cycling

Been thinking to get one of those hitch bike racks recently since we are so into cycling lately. But with just one car and one bike rack, then is it possible to hang 3 bikes? Actually the man has not been taking his company car to office ever since he bought the bike, yeah, he cycles to office everyday just because he would like to lose more fats. I can see him slimmed down a lot within this month although he doesn't take any diet plan but purely cycling. That's why i bought myself a bike as well!

Learning clarinet and violin

I was told by my son's class teacher that the pupils need to choose one musical instrument for accumulate their academy point next semester. My elder boy has chosen clarinet whereas my younger boy has chosen violin. I actually do not play any musical instruments so I can't help them much in practicing their instruments. So what I can always do is making sure they practice their instruments every night before they go to their bed. As for getting the required accessories, their daddy will get via online which he believes they are cheaper than getting from retail shop. He had even commented the vandoren clarinet reeds at wwbw are cheapest amongst others!

Swimming

Weather is getting cold lately especially early in the morning and evening. The wind is pretty strong and chilly but it is still warm and hot in the afternoon. Ever since the onset of October, the management had already closed the swimming pool, which will be closed from October till next May. My son ever asked why the management didn't get the electric swimming pool heaters so that everyone still can swim even it is during cold winter. Yeah, what a good idea! Perhaps I should suggest this idea in the coming residential and management meeting.

Losing weight

My weight is just like sitting on roller coaster, from 55kg to 60kg then dropped to 58.1kg then the latest is 57.3kg. Well, i still have 2kg to shed in order to go back to my ideal weight. Losing weight has not been easier if you need to take care of 3 kids especially taking care of sick kid all by yourself. Well, think on the bright side, i at least save money for not buying those weight loss supplements. Yeah, i have natural way to stay slim.

Word Clock

My friend asked me whether i could bring him the word clock cable or not when i am going back. He said i could just get him the imitate one from those gray market, gosh, if i were him, i would just spend on a genuine word clock, at least the quality is guaranteed. But since he is my best friend so i would not reject his demand and i will try my best to get him one, yet i seriously hope he won't send the imitated word clock cable back to me and ask for exchange or money return.

Spend wisely

The staff of the saloon insisted to hairdo my girl's hair while i was having my eyebrows trimmed at the saloon. I didn't bother it and just let the lady to style my girl's hair because i knew my girl would love all these hairdos and cosmetics things. After a while, the lady started to put clips on my girl's hair and being very hard selling those hair accessories to me. She said i could bring my girl over for hairdo anytime for free as long as i buy their hair accessories. Be truly honest, i was about to pay for the hair clips as my girl loved them a lot, but i didn't at last because the prices of the clips are too expensive, all the clips on her head charged about RMB500+. Gosh, i am not stupid and i am not blind, i really couldn't see why i should pay few hundred for those low-quality plastic clips. I would rather use the money to get my kids one of those good quality rustic bookcases to keep their books. Well, even i like my girl being pretty but it doesn't mean i should spend blindness.

Swisher Sweet Cigar

My friend told me swisher sweet is a sweet cigar. Huh? Sweet? Well, i don't smoke neither cigaratte nor cifar, that's why i can't really imagine the taste. Even though my man likes to collect cigar but he doesn't smoke so basically he can't tell the exact taste of cigar too. I actually don't like people either to smoke or to drink, but sadly to say my man likes to drink a LOT.

So tired

I didn't sleep well yesterday night, almost kept waking up hourly. I actually found myself was asleep but at the same time i still felt my mind was awake. Do you have such experience before? I seriously hope i don't get any sleep disorder problems.

Although i am damn tired now, i still have to wake up early to wait for the worker to come over my house for fixing my kitchen hood. The hood has not been working for a week, at first hubs suggested we could get the hood's appliance part to fix ourself but since he has been too busy at work so he barely has time to get the hood fixed, that's why i finally called the hood repairing worker come over.

Helmet

My first Valentine's present from a boyfriend (now hubby) was a helmet, well, the helmet looked neither stunning nor attractive but looked pretty old-fashioned. Be truly honest, i simply could not accept myself wearing such an ugly helmet and riding the super bike with my boyfriend. He should have bought me an astonishing HJC CS-R2 helmet, so that i could have become the center of attention when i ride with him.

Handsome neighbor

The boy next door shows how cool he is while standing beside the lift. He always looks gorgeous with his oakley sunnies, white linen shirt and kneelength shorts and his oakley laptop backpack, i must admit that he is absolutely a handsome young guy. How time flies, he was about 10 years old boy the first time i met him, but now he is even taller than me and i think he will bring his girlfriend back home pretty soon. :-)

Waterproof seat covers

Hubs was furious when he saw his boy spilled the half canned of coke on his car's cushion. I was mad too because this was not a first spilling and i seriously think he did it deliberately. This boy of mine is always an opponent who never perform things as what he was told. Gosh, i really feel like giving him a good punishment so that he can remember not to spill any beverages onto the car's cushion again. Further i think it is wise to get waterproof seat covers too, don't you agree to my idea? I better discuss this seat covers with my hubs asap, better have them worn over the seats before the next incident happens.

I hate argument

Hubs bought the Roll-A-Bout knee walker for my little boy but he has totally forgotten to get something for his elder son and youngest daughter. How unfair! Actually i just hate this "bias" attitute to max, of course he denied that he had such tendency towards his little boy! We even had argument because of this issue, but ended up i had to agree to differ just to end the argument. I dislike argument especially when i have headache!!!

So sorry

Hubs says he doesn't mind to have one of those buildings of metal as for car garage if we have bigger garden here. Of course this is just a dream sentence since we are actually staying in Condo, literally a matchbox-sized Condo. I somehow think, maybe the kids would like staying in my IL's house since their house has spacious garden for them to RUN. But kids, so sorry, we have to stay here to earn living. :(

If i have strong financial backup..

We went to furniture shops to look for cheap yet good quality racks and stands for my IL's new house. They are actually not intended to move into the new house but going to rent the house to working adults. My ILs are good in property investment, that's why they do not need to work but still can receive income from their owned property. I wish i can have such a good life like them when i am at my ripe old age. Of course, the first of all i must have strong financial as backup before i can invest in property!

Gonna sell my current laptop

My laptop had been infected with virus twice last week, the antivirus i had simply could not detect the virus. The keyboard even typed it ownself in the background. I had reformatted my laptop before the second time my laptop met the virus. But unfortunately the virus from my external hard disk came back to my reformatted laptop, so it infected the second time although i had the Norton antivirus installed in my laptop. Be frankly, the Norton had not been working perfectly so off i uninstalled it and installed BitDefender, VOILA, the virus just cleaned in a second! However, i don't want to keep this laptop anymore because i want to get a MacBook, but before i sell off my current laptop, i do need Iolo hard drive eraser to permanently remove all of my previous stored data. This is definitely a must since smart hackers are just around every nook and cranny. :)

Everybody needs a best friend

I am listening to Norah Jones ~ Everybody needs a best friend now, a very sweet and meaningful song indeed. Yeah, can't deny this quote as everybody does need a best friend who you can share everything with. I am lucky enough because i have more than a best friend, i actually have 3 who are willing to be my listeners when i wanna share my secrets, my problems, in short, my everything of my life. Well, friendship is hard to maintain as well, it's so unlike clothes you wear because the new are the best but friendship is the old is the best. But my hubs begs to differ, he actually defined his friendship as mens briefcases, the old the comfortable to be worn. LOL

Maternity Compression Stockings

My cousin is pregnant now and she is looking for maternity compression stockings which i never used for my previous 3 pregnancies. I was told the stockings can help alleviating any discomforts caused by pregnancy, oh gosh, i must have been outdated last time to know about this stocking. I remember i had to bear my legs pain during my pregnancies, if i had known it earlier then i would have bought it too.

Girl loves pink

Every girls like pink, just like my daughter. She likes everything in pink, be it her outfits, toys, bags, shoes, socks and a lot more. Actually i have been seriously wondering why most of the little girls like pink, is it because pink color related to princesses? Look at those 10 Disney princesses, their outfits are mostly in sweetest colors. I think perhaps this is a reason why my girl loves only pink but not other colors. She even begged me to get her pink camo bedding. She just could not get her pair of eyes off the sweet pink bedding when she found it, gosh, my girl has grown up so much, a way too fast before i can realize her growing speed.

Summer Holidays soon

The kids have been making a lot of unbearable noises lately, gosh, i just hope my neighbor won't make any complains on those noises they made. Be frankly, i have been worrying how to stand them when the summer holidays come and how to stay sane throughout the 7 weeks of holidays. I seriously hope the kids can well behaved at home like reading, watching tv, coloring and doing all sort of good and healthy activities. I even have warned my boys that they cannot play their father's cymbal whenever their father is not at home, you know, i just so worry i will get any complains from my neighbors. I actually wish to send them back to my mom's house but sadly to say that it simply sounds impossible due to the expensive air fare.

Tiring

If this is my house, i would definitely get more storage cabinets so that i would have more place to store my things and make my house looks more tidy up. We have too much things placed disorderly and i just hate to see those messes. Kids are still young, so basically cleaning their toys and books are my daily job which seems like a never ending job. Be honestly i sometimes would feel regret why did i offer toys as their reward, actually the more toys means the more messes. Sigh, how i wish they can grow up quickly and know how to help me clean up the messes. You know, i have been so tired to do all sort of cleaning and arranging works.

The thought counts...

I don't need any expensive gift for my coming birthday, actually pandora jewelry will do. Maybe you will think i am too silly and why did not i request a diamond bracelet from the man. I actually can't see the reason why i should have asked for an expensive stuff for my birthday, not the thought surpassing the value of the gift? Somemore, the man has bought me a concert ticket so making me have chance to see my favorite idol singing on my birthday. It is actually more than enough for me. 

Antique furnitures

I love contemporary design but my hubs love antique design. So we would have lot of arguements when comes to choosing furnitures for our new house in KK. Sometimes i simply think he has piece of silly mind because i have always thought that it's not suitable to put heirloom typed of furnitures in our new house which it eventually will rent out to other people. What's more i think nowadays people will love modern design much more than old fashioned design. But i have totally changed my mindsets after my first glance at those heirloom yet luxury furnitures just like those i saw at Ethan Allen. However, i don't think i am willingly to rent out my house to someone i don't know if my house is fully furnished with those top quality and top craftmanship furnitures.

Treat your wife as your girlfriend

During our dinner yesterday, hubs suddenly mentioned it is so difficult to get birthday present for wife but it is easier to get for girlfriend. Actually i don't think so, as long as you have heart then getting a lovely present for wife is simply easy. What's more you can always treat your wife as your dating girlfriend, give her more passions, more loves and more hearts, then getting one of those birthday gifts for girlfriend is as simple as reading ABC. Although we have been married for 9 years, we still can put more passion in our marriage. Agree?

The kids are so into music recently.

Sigh, money is just not enough here! With just a paid cheque but arrays of expenses, i can actually feel the burden on my hub's shoulder. And recently, my elder boy wants to get a aer for his guitar. He has been learning guitar for 1 year and has been so into it, so after discussing with hubby, we have decided to get one for him. It will simply as a reward as well as encouragement for him so that he can master his guitar skills in more mature ways as time goes by. And very soon, i think we will have a piano at home for the little boy too. Arghh...can you feel our finiancial burderns?

Wanna look fit again

My man had been a good looking muscle man at his early 20 and 30. But, as time went by, his six packs abdomen have combined into one and become a big belly eventually. Recently, he has started to do exercise regularly and been planning to go back to six packs abdomen look. Perhaps he has reached his early 40 so he has been feeling hard to train his body up to the shape he wants. Some friends of him recommend MyoRipped for him but he still feels skeptical of its result. He said once to me he would try it maybe one day in future. But the most important thing he wants to do it now is trying his best to gather all the myoripped side effects and read them detailly, if the side effects are just minimal, then he will give them a green light to go into his stomach!

Summer is finally here

We are embracing Summer now! Yeah, my favorite season has come eventually! I know i am definitely a weido because majority of people hate Summer but i just love it to bits. Summer is always good for us, and the most importantly is the kids hardly fall sick in Summer!

Today we will have wardrobe cleaning, all the Winter wears will give their way to Summer wears. The carpets will be washed and stored into the vacuum bag, and the electric blanket will be stored nicely on the top of the wardrobe too!

Arghhh...today will be a busy day for everyone at home!

Prefer imported stuffs

I trust American products a lot, definitely not those made in CN! Although i have been leaving in CN for more than 7 years, i still trying my best to get imported foods from State. Luckily buying imported foods here is easier, even easier than in MY. I also ever heard my uncle said the american products pool light at his condo could last 30000 hours, so those made in CN ones definitely can't beat those American ones. Agree? :-)

Childhood memory.

I can't really remember my childhood time in my maternal grandpa's house, but i still can vividly remember there was a hammock with stand at my grandpa's house. We all loved snatching it and lying lazying there. However, being the youngest and weakest one at home, i always lost my chance lying on it. Now, after so many years, i have finally bought one again for my home in KK which it certainly brings back memories of my childhood. :-)

Working at the ripe old age.

As far as i know, most engines nowadays do not need any fuel pump. That's why i was pretty shocked when my hubs told me his father just bought a beck arnley mechanical fuel pump for his old truck which he uses it to deliver oil palm fruits. My FIL is actually at his ripe old age already but he is still working hard. Sometimes i just can't understand him, he should have enjoyed his life with his sons, daughters and grandchilden instead of working hard since he doesn't have financial problem. Em..maybe money is more important than family life.

Dilemma...

I have been thinking to move back to my home country for months. Think staying in own place is definitely better than staying somewhere else especially cost of living in my hometown is much more cheaper than here. Of course, there are a lot of reasons involved especially for the kids' sake, and the most important thing is we can cut down the education fees we pay here. Furthermore the kids can learn more languages there and even can go to different enrichment classes as well as going to church. I have always wanted my kids join of those instrumentals class, but sadly to say, the learning fees here are so expensive. As for myself, i like to learn mandolin and get myself a good quality mitchell mandolin but due to having tight budget, i can only dream and never take any progress. Actually the mind of moving back is getting stronger and stronger each days, but just don't know it can be accomplished.

Been complaining a lot...

The feast is just over. Gosh, there were about 40 guests here gathering at my in-law house. The house was full of noise and the kids were playing happily and crazily too. Actually, i was a bit unhappy, all because of my MIL. She had been complaining a lot since few days ago, be honestly, i really do not have idea what does she want. She complained the dirtiness and complained we didn't help her out on the house chores, but gosh, my FIL had been cleaning the house by using the hoover steam vac for few days to ensure a sparkle looking home before the guests arrived, however, MIL still complaining a lot. Her complains annoy me a lot, now i seriously think to spend our next CNY in CN to avoid listening her never ending complains.

A lot of sick kids

A lot of my friends' kids are sick during this festive season, probably they had been taking too much of CNY foods and triggered the sickness. Most are having same symptoms like fever, cough and sore throat. My girl has eyes infection too, no idea where did she get it. I have bought the eye drop 2 days ago from the medical center, i was pretty surprised when i saw those on duty nurses wearing modern medical scrubs there. Gosh, those nurses looked so pro and gorgeous. My hubby even said their uniform looks more modern than my dress. :p

Titanium watch

Hubby bought me a titanium watch as a Christmas present. He was so lovely to give me a surprise. Actually, i never like to wear watch because my hand is allergic to watch band, be it a leather, silver or titanium. So be honestly, i was just a bit confused why did he still spend a huge amount to get me a watch which it is not necessary to own. He is a lovely man but definitely is not a thoughtful man!

No more co-sleeping

Our king sized latex mattress is finally arrived at our doorstep this afternoon. After few years of co-sleeping with the kids, we finally decided to move the boys to other room. Both of the boys are fine with the decision and they in fact can't hardly wait to sleep in their own room. They have ocean theme room, so basically everything is in blue color. My girl wanted to have her own room too, but pathetically we just have 2 rooms in our unit, so for the moment i still cannot promise her any. Hopefully the boys won't come disturbing me at the midnight.

Goodbye 2011

How time flies, a much awaited year 2012 will be arriving in 9 hours time. How are you going to celebrate tonight, the last day of year 2011? A blast together with the final countdown? I envy you if you will have one of any kind of celebrations later. I have not been attending year end party for years, and I can foresee I won't be attending any too for the next 10 years. Actually the last day of the year is just like any other day, even my boys have replacement class and are going to art class tonight as well. Hubby is working also. So it even makes the day less meaningful. Anyhow, i am here wishing everyone Happy New Year and have a prosperous year ahead!Oh, i had this Subway tuna sandwich for my lunch, yummy and satisfied food to mark the last lunch of year 2011.

Wish to have pretty eyelashes

I have been thinking to try one of those best eyelash growth products so that my eyelashes can look longer. I actually even wonder could the eyelashes grow longer to my desired length before CNY. Can it be a magic wand? My friend told me before that i could have frequent trim to my eyelashes because eyelashes are like hair, the more you trim the faster they grow. I in fact never try this method, but i will if the eyelash growth product cannot help me. In short say, i will never forgo any chance that can make my eyelashes grow longer.

Can't wait any longer to "fly"

I have been so looking for the date of my flight to go back to my home country, yes, another 39 days to go. It has been a year since i last went back so i seriously miss the foods and my family and my friends there. And, i miss the hot hot weather there too! So in order not to waste the hot weather, i have planned to bring the kids to Manuka Island, and i even bought the funny t shirts for 5 of us so that we can have perfect matching on our island trip. Just can't wait any longer to go back home!

Learning phonics

I just found a great you tube video downloader. Actually i had been looking one but what i have found so far was not my favorite downloader. I definitely prefer the current one which allows MP3, AAC, MPEG, FLV, and HD Formats. From now onwards, i can download all the phonics teaching methods to my iPad and let my kids learn them. I do not know phonics so most of the time i don't know how to teach them. Luckily i can get the sources from Youtube!

Year end again..

How time flies, it is year end again. It was like yesterday i just celebrated my Christmas, but now Christmas is just around the corner again. Yesterday when i was at the mall, i saw Christmas decorations were everywhere and Christmas songs been kept broadcasting too. I have ready to give christmas cheer for my family, relatives and friends. How about you? Have you got your Christmas tree ready? And have you prepared Christmas presents for your loved ones? Woo...i just love year end!

Go back to corporate world

I will have more personal time after my girl attends to school next year. Perhaps i will look for one of those Technical Recruiter Consultant Jobs so that i can help reducing hubby's burden. I have always wanted to get a job again so that we can share our household expenses. I totally know it is not easier to be a sole breadwinner for a family, what's more we have 3 kids. Let's see how, if my hubby supports my willing, then most probably i will get a full time job again. Hopefully it is not difficult for me to get a high paid job here.

CNY holidays soon

How time flies, it has only 94 days to go to CNY. You know, i have been waiting for this day arrives so that i can go back, i just like to see more sunlights and meet my family and friends there. I have never liked the Winter here, the weather just makes me feeling sick. Unlike in MY, the sun is big and hot which is perfect for swimming, picnic, diving and etc. Islands are everywhere in KK, but sadly to say, my kids have never been any before. So for the coming CNY holidays, i will bring them to go. They will definitely like the clean and white sands there, and they can dive too. My boy even ask for one of those underwater cameras so that he can shoot the underwater scenes and show to his friends.

Words Learning for a 4yo

Recently i found this book at DangDang, i bought the first book after i read their reviews. I was pretty skeptical about the techniques so i just ordered the first book instead of getting the full set which has 7 books in it.

I taught my Eli the first page at the night i received this book, Eli's response was good, perhaps i should say his response was better than my expectation. He could memorize the first 16 words in less than 10 minutes, and he showed interest in reading this book too. So without much thinking, i ordered another book 2, 3 and 4 immediately. As for the rest, they are still in old version which without colors and pictures, so better i wait for the new version arrives to make them into a complete set.

What i like this book is, it shows the simple words first, then comes to 2 words, and gradually in sentence which the sentences are made up by those learned words. My Eli felt excited when he could read the full sentences by his own, think this is the motivation to keep him learning.

Christmas, can't wait any longer

I hope my friends won't say me crazy if i send out the Christmas Party Invitations to them end of this month. You know, i just can't wait to celebrate white Christmas with all of my loved friends. I have been waiting for the Christmas ever since my birthday over and i have been practicing my baking skills a lot so that i can bake variety of Christmas cookies for my loved ones. Other than that, i have even got all the Christmas presents ready. Oh, i am not crazy but just too love to have this day coming.

A week holiday

The one week national holidays will be here soon, anyway, holidays are just like any other days for me, even more busier than school days. Hubs suggests we can have a short vacation but the boys prefer to stay at home and playing their gadgets. My elder boy has even kept reminding me countless time to buy the ps3 hdmi cable so that it will be available during the long holidays. Sigh, traveling can never arouse their mood and interest, so i always say my kids are different from their peers, don't they?

SZ to BKK

AA is offering free seats ticket, i browsed and checked the airfare from SZ to Bangkok in next Summer is just about CNY110 per pax, that's cheap and i am so tempted to get the tickets and brings the kids to Bangkok next Summer. If possible, i will get a self driven package while traveling in Bangkok. I had bad experience taking public transport in Bangkok before that's why if with kids along, i would rather go for renting the rv and drive myself. Of course, it is necessary to have rv insurance and check the affordable rv insurance quote before we go so that i can manage our family travel budget well.

Get the kitchen sink changed

I have always wanted to get my kitchen sink changed. Finally my landlord agreed to let us change the current kitchen sink to stainless steel sink. I prefer stainless steel more, at least it won't get rusty after using over time. At first my landlord was not agreed to change it but he said "YES" after he knew i would pay everything without sending him any bills. See, that's my landlord, a very calculative young lawyer.

Cannot fit into size L

I bought myself a PU jacket yesterday online and i received the parcel this morning. Sadly to say, i cannot fit into the jacket although i bought size L. Gosh, i think i need to stop shopping fashion online until i shed off those extra body fats. I need one of those proven and effective best fat burners, can anyone recommend one to me. I don't mind to pay as long as it helps burning my body fats. I need to have nice body shape again before Winter comes.

My soon-to-be 28 months old girl

My girl is almost 28 months old now and still a breastfed baby, not exclusively though. She takes once or twice growing up milk per day, other times she likes being a leech, latching on me whenever she sees me in lying position or sitting position. Her overly demand of sucking has been causing a lot of inconveniences for me, i feel exhausted but i still have no heart to wean her off my boobs. I like the quiet time bonding with her and such moment is precious when she comfortably being held in nursing position. In fact, i have received quite lot of pressures from people especially my hubs, they just want me to stop. Some of them think perhaps i do not produce enough milk for my girl, and some of them say my milk now is actually nutrient-less, so better i wean her off. I am so in dilemma, stop or continue has been lingering on my mind for a while.

People will throw me a "wow and unbelievable" look when they are told i am still breastfeeding my toddler girl. Is it really such an unbelievable act when a mother is still breastfeeding her toddler girl? I have a friend actually breastfed her boy till her boy was 4 years old. Well, i don't think i am able to nurse my girl like how my friend did. I am getting prepared to wean her off my boobs because she will attend nursery in another few months time. Time just flies, my ever fragile baby is now a cute little girl, and very soon, she will go to primary school, then high school, then Uni, and then go dating with boyfriend. And very soon, she will hunt for her custom engagement ring, don't you agree that all these will just happen in the blink of an eye?

So slacking off

It has been about a month since i last updated this blog, yeah, i have definitely lost my momentum to blog. I am so slacking off in maintaining my blogs, yeah, BLOGS. I own not only one blog, but few. Because of my slacking attitude, few blogs of mine have been deserted. During my absence, did you miss me? Well, i don't think i have much readers as i used to have, just think who wants to visit a deserted blog? Be honestly, my mind is stuck, i actually have lost the ideas in updating blogs. Updating blogs seems like a toughest job for me now as compared to motherhood job. Hopefully, i can back to blogging world again after the kids returning to school. Keep my fingers crossed, the school reopens in another 11 days.

Promise ring

I knew what was a wedding ring but never knew what was a promise ring etiquette because i had never received one from my boyfriend who is now my hubby. I only knew the true meaning of it after being told by my friend. She had her promise ring from her boyfriend, wow, sounds so romantic to get such a ring. But one thing funny is, they have been together for 3 months only, oh gosh, how to acknowledge this "fresh" relationship? Hope they won't break the commitments they have made as time goes by.

Insurance for me..

My friend is going to Europe very soon, i wonder has she got her travel insurance for her trip? I forgot to ask her the matter the other day when we met at coffee shop. Better call her later to check it out. Travelers are always advised to buy insurance for their trip, that's why i never fail to get myself one everytime i go travel. Actually i have protected myself well because i have got myself various types of insurance. Buying insurance nowadays is very common and also a good way to give yourself and your loved one a guaranteed protection. I browsed the http://www.wholesaleinsurance.net a lot before i decided which insurance for myself. Luckily technology is advance now, everything can simple go through online with just a few clicks away.

Gonna buy the rechargeable batteries

My friend bought 2 remote control toy cars for my boys last Tuesday when she came to visit me. She got my girl a kid's laptop too, how thoughtful she is. But one thing i dislike is the un-chargeable batteries of the remote control toy cars are easily worn out, so for long term used, it is nothing beat to get the rechargeable aa batteries otherwise i will be broke pretty soon if i need to keep buying the un-chargeable batteries for their toy cars. Just wonder, anyone know any methods that can recharge the un-chargeable battery? If this can work, i can save more money. :-)

Need to print worksheets for my kids

My HP printer is out of toner ink now, has been thinking to get the black ink and color ink but the prices of them are extremely high at the technology center in my area. My friend suggested me to find my required toner cartridges online as buying online is indeed more cheaper than getting from retail shops. I have to act fast soon because i need the ink to print some Summer worksheets for my kids. Summer school holiday will start soon...

Great FD celebration

I got my husband a box of cigars for Father's day present. He likes them so much although he is not a cigar smoker, he actually has the cigars collection hobby. I was initially out of idea what was a good present for him, luckily i suddenly thought of buying cigars for him when i stumbled on the cigars site the couple of weeks ago. They even give cigars sampler to their customers, with their good service and good offer, i eventually decided to get cigars from them for my husband.

Acne problem

My sister asked whether i could find a good anti-acne product for her, she has been suffering acne problem for 5 years, so she actually needs an effective and result proven acne product to cure her acne desperately. I read the nanocleanse review before, so think i can try asking my friend courier this NanoCleanse for me from State. Perhaps i can ask her to get some sale items from Gap for me as well! :-)

Strawberry girl

I didn't have smooth face when i was at my teenage years. Friends of mine used to call me "strawberry girl" because my face had lot of pimples and pores. I felt sad every time when people called me as "strawberry girl", but i still did not know how to cure those unwanted pimples due to poor knowledge about facial that time. However my life changed after i found an effective solution online, click here if you like to know how did i cure my "strawberry face". Other than that, i believe evening primrose oil pill helps too...

Introduce billiard for my elder boy

My hubs has been thinking to introduce billiard to his elder boy, gosh, my elder boy is just at 7 years old, is it too early to let him know what is billiard? I have always thought that he should have concentrated in his study rather than spending his spare times in playing games, some more he is still young. But since hubs is insisted, then i could only support his decision and help him order some cheap billiard related things from billiard supplies. As long as the boy knows how to handle both things then actually it is no harm to let him play billiard at such young age.

My aunt is undergoing an electrosurgery soon

My friend told me her mum is going to have an electrosurgery next month, she is pretty worried about the operation and also the medical bill too. As her friend, i cannot help much but can only support her emotionally. I hope everything goes well and smooth on her mother, actually, her mother is way like my mother too because this aunt has been treating me well since i knew her daughter 25 years ago.

Terrible 2

My girl is at her terrible two stage, she acts oppositely from my orders purposely. You can say her wanna be independent, but in fact she is stubborn. She likes to snatch her little brother's things especially his ipod touch without permission, the sudden snatching leads to fight eventually. The fighting frequency is getting morer and morer each day and i feel so stress to handle this girl. She tends to cry more, her crying sound is always in high pitch and annoying. She cries for everything, as if crying is her best weapon to get everything she wants. She used to be a cute little pie, but now she drains my energy, oh, i hope the terrible two can be over in no time.‏

Money is not enough

I wonder whether i can get one of those payday advances or not because i do not have any supported documents. I need money urgently, gosh, i spent few hundred dollars in a wet market just now, the money gone like a running water, but what to do, my IL wanted everything good and expensive. I seriously wonder how to survive my life if she keeps wanting to buy those expensive seafood and poultry meats. Arghhhh....

Baby shampoo

My kids have been using Aveeno baby shampoo since they born, but recently i could not find it in the place i stay. I wonder why? My friend suggested me to use SebaMed baby shampoo but it is too expensive so it won't be my choice. Currently the kids use Johnson brand, but be frankly i do not like it due to the kids' hair seem to get tangle easily and their hairs are pretty dried after using it. Now i seriously looking for a cheap brand yet good quality kids shampoo. Do you have any recommendations? I hope i can find some quality reviews and critics on kids' used products at beauty, so that i know what is the best bathing product for my kids.

Franchise business

Have you been thinking about to start your own business? If yes, then probably you can get one of those franchise business. I wish to go back to working world because taking care of kids 24x7 at home is tiring job, but, i don't think my hubs will support my idea. So in the meantime, i can only endure my life without any complaints.

Blessing in disguise

The weather is getting hotter and hotter each day, i can finally store all the down feather jackets into the tight vacuum bag and take out all the Summer wear. I am feeling glad that Summer is finally here but i am feeling sad too at the same time because i have outgrown all of my last Summer clothing. I have gained 4kg since last Summer. Sigh, other than thinking a good way to shed off the extra fats, i need to get some fitted urban clothing for myself, yeah, a blessing in disguise, because it is a time to start online shopping.

Waiting for my parcel

I have been waiting for my parcel arrives on my doorstep ever since i placed my order on Gap yesterday. Normally i can get my stuff after a day of waiting, hope there is no exception this time too because i need the pair of shoes urgently. :-)

Have passion in baking

I'd always thought that i would continue my study in management field so that it would be easier for me to get one of those management jobs when one day i back to corporate world. But recently, i have changed my mind, i have strong desire to be a pastry chef. I would like to attend culinary school and learn everything that can lead me to be a professional baker. I have passion and dedication now, just hope my spouse can support me.

Taking supplement pills

I have been taking a lot of supplement pills for years, think have more than 10 years. Not long ago, i have started taking evening primrose pills which believe it can help preventing ache. I have been having ache problem for 4 months, had tried few skincare products but they didn't help much in controlling the occurrence of ache. So off i tried evening primrose pills. My friend warned me don't simply try any supplements pills as nobody knows its hidden side effects that may happen to the body, yeah, how true. What's more we do not get any legal claim if something bad happen after taking those supplements pills. Unlike those who take Topamax, at least they can seek for Topamax Lawsuit to claim back what they are deserved. Having said that, i will still continue taking my supplement pills for the moment.

Read the reviews before buying

After so much of bad experiences in buying things online, i finally learned my lesson. Now, i read every reviews carefully on the internet before i pay my money. I think i have read enough on apidextra reviews and can finally write it on the "things to buy" list and pass to my hubs who will be going to State soon. I need a good weight loss product to control my weight, be honestly, i prefer to take weight loss product instead of starving my tummy. Starving is simply torturing.

Wanna say bye to my HP

After using my HP laptop for 2 years, i have finally decided to pass down this HP laptop to my sister. I wanna get one of those toshiba laptop computers this time, and been wondering whether i can get any discount coupon before i buy it. Or, do you know which online store is giving laptop giveaway right now? If yes, do let me know. I will definitely try my luck there...:-)

The baking mood is back

It has been a while since i last updated this blog. I started writing this blog when my first son was about 18 months old, and now he is already 7. We just celebrated his lunar birthday yesterday, how time flies...

I baked him a butter pound cake with rich buttercream frosting yesterday, actually it was my first time to frost a cake. It was a fun experience indeed and i had been looking for more frosting tools and ingredients online the whole morning. Hopefully i can master the frosting skill after few practices.

Going to attend a dinner

I am going to attend a dinner next week, however, i still cannot get myself a good looking dress. Been shopping around the mall but nothing i fancy with. If i still cannot get it by next Monday, then i will just go for one of those bridesmaid dresses, though it may look overly classy for the dinner and maybe i will look more prettier than the host, but who cares since the host has never mentioned the dress code for me.

Presents for FIL & MIL

Hubby will get nikon rifle scope for my FIL as Father's day present this year. As for my MIL, nothing beats to get her a branded handbag on Mother's day. We have actually planned what presents to get for them earlier this year, just because hubs is leaving to his business trip soon, so we have to get the items listed on paper and buy them directly from State.

The park is so poor maintained

I don't like to kill my time at park. But because my kids love going to park, so i bring them there. The park actually is not well maintained because the management does not provide playground nor good walking paths and jogging tracks for the residents. Some of residents here suggested the management to get the equipments for the kids, but until today, i haven't seen any actions taken by the management. I would definitely buy some home used playground equipment for my kids if i had a spacious house.
