Little Random Details About Me

I think I've been generally unhappy since the the start of the year and I'm still complaining. Bad start hah and I think there will be more to come esp. after the baby comes out. It is quite hard to be all HA HA happy happy with a baby in the house in the first place. In Jan, I went for a sugar test and failed it. Thus I had to go for a more detailed test which I passed in the end. So all is well. But it sux when the first test failed. Der had to rub it in by saying how much I've been eating and how I should stop eating blah blah. It was in the midst of us eating at Legoland and I just got pissed and stopped eating. It totally spoiled the trip. I can't help it if I'm hungry. In fact, I remember eating much more when I was pregnant with Charlotte. I just couldn't stop eating at that time and I had lots of junk food. This pregnancy on the other hand, I think I ate lesser but had more sugar. I didn't like anything sweet in the previous pregnancy. This time, I...

Such a deceiving title haha. I'm not celebrating Valentine's Day. I probably won't even remember today if Charlotte's school didn't ask the parents to prepare 21 V day cards for her classmates. My V day memories in the past all revolve around my girl friends. I think that's one plus points about being in a girl school. We get to celebrate on this particular day even if we don't have another half. We don't care about boys last time. We were so happy celebrating it among ourselves hah. We just called it friendship day and gave each other gifts like flowers, chocolates etc. anything that couples give each other. Those were the happiest and best times. In fact, I don't remember much of the celebrations after getting a partner. I'm too lazy to think hard about it anyway. Probably just dinner, flowers and gifts. After having a kid, dinner flowers and gifts became even more of a past. I know many couples still celebrate this day. We on the other hand ...

peace and quiet at last. I've been loving the quiet time in the day when Charlotte's in school and the quiet time at night when she's asleep. Staring into space just seems pretty relaxing to me these days. I don't sleep at the same time with her but I will just lay down beside her and pretend to sleep hah. Der has been working at nights for the past few nights and I enjoy being "alone" in the house. Maybe coz I can just be quiet and do whatever I want to without anyone bothering me. Of course this means after Charlotte goes to bed. I also particularly like working out in the gym. It takes my mind off disturbing thoughts. I cannot run on the treadmill like before but I would brisk walk for at least 45 mins with an incline and do some weights thereafter. Ever since I got back from Singapore, I've been seeking solace in the gym for longer hours. Since we got back, we did try to soak up some of the CNY atmosphere here in LA. We decorated the house a little...

by a lot of things... or maybe not. I think mostly by 1 information. My mil will be coming over after I deliver. Something I've dreadddddd.... I've not gotten over Singapore. Every time we head back, we will definitely quarrel over something to do with my mil. Upon coming back, I got the news at the airport that she will be coming over, My heart totally sank. What?!? Nooooo. I thought she's been telling the world that the long flight deters her and she doesn't want to come. The feeling is mutual so i'm happy to hear. But she always says one thing and means the other. Always complaining about how horrible ALL her trips are, how she's forced to go for ALL trips blah blah blah. Come on!! *roll eyes* I hope someone forced me to Europe right now so I can be able to get some branded bags ha..ha..ha.. I've been disturbed by the news ever since standing in line for my turn to come out of custom upon arriving at the airport. I just can't get over the news even ...
