hEALtH ChECk

Toking abt health, dunno wat happen to me these few mths... hasnt been feeling well... having nausea, vomit & freq headaches... at times are real bad till i cant work... started 2 mths ago.... last mth alone was on MC for 4days & took 1day leave coz not well... juz tis wk, vomitted on wed... & took time-off to go home rest... tis kinda worries me.... oh b4 i con't, in case u tink i'm pregnant... i'm not.... hahhahaa.... but tats the thing, den dunno wats happenin to me... haf seen GP... but onli got pain killers.... perhaps, age is catching up.... or perhaps, its due to hormones change, stress... i'm not sure either.... so now i'm tryin to do things slow & take things easy..... haf oso decided to go c a specialist.... pray tat i'll b ok n doc is able to pin-point wats wrong wif me...

wanna thank pin, bibi & my family for being wif me.... taking care & supporting me when i'm not feeling well...

tHuMBs UP 4 bOtH of US!!!

Pin & i had been looking ard for tv... tis part of our homework... to compare specs, prices & deals...

Today is the last day for Commex fair... after much discussion, pin & i decided to go for it after church service... finally, we bought a 32" tv.... & wat amazes me is, pin & i actually took a train back with the tv... we walked fr suntec to cityhall, took the train till tiong bahru & walked home... stylo rite... thank God we made it home earlier, else we mayb caught in the rain....

we're both getting more & more excited....

and see, pin's hand ended up like tis..... So, one item off the list... Thanks so much for the gift, Papa & Mami!!! a great gift indeed...

No Hse... Sad... Got Hse.... Stress....

Was realli excited when we 1st got the hse.... still is... but now the cost of renovation, furnishings, etc are setting in.... so getting kinda stress financially... tho tryin to keep the reno minimal, still not cheap man.... but my parents' view is, if wanna do, better to do wats required now.... dunno how... now still getting quotes from different contractors to compare prices....

Our furnishings, have also tried to keep to wats necessary... even additional tv for the mst bedroom oso put on hold.... wahhahaa.... hey, can take a look at my list... remind me if i've missed out anytg... coz i'll be startin my hunt soon... of coz if u wanna make a little contribution to my new home, u're more den welcome... geez... juz let me noe....

Both josh & myself still wanna cont to trust God for His providence & blessing in every area...

Nothing is better den having a HOME of your own

Pin & I are so thankful tat finally our prayer is answered... on tis yr's May day, pin & i, tgt wif our family, went to the seller hse & cnf e deal.... last wed, 6/8/08, we finally went to HDB for our 1st appt... i was sick, but still we made it there to sign the docs.... tis is indeed a long awaited one.... we've been prayin for a hse in our parents area... in our desperation, we even opened our options to areas like the north-east & west... however, no matter how many times we balloted (tink we did like 7-8 times...), we still couldn't get a flat.... so finally, we've decided to stay at my aunt's plc for awhile... God has His reason for e'thing.. as we looked back, even if God had gave us a house b4 our wedding, we wld haf been struggling financially....

tho tis resale flat tat we got is not cheaper either... our savings are pretty wiped out.. really learning to be thrifty, yet not stingy... cuttin down on shoppin liao man... scared if go shoppin will end up buying redundant things... now, to buy some not so impt stuff, will think twice... thank God, my veri patient & logical hubby will be there to help me by asking 'do u realli ned it'... hahahaa... pretty sad & hard at times... but i noe its all worth it... its all for OUR HOME... i'm getting excited & counting down the daez... too bad the seller can only hand the key to us end of sep.... prayin for miracle tat she can hand us the key earlier... & pray tat all things (reno, shifting, etc..) will go smoothly....

OUR SaTURdaY

tis the 1st tat we've woke up b4 9am... geez... had our b'fast, came home & did our usual hsework... vacuum'in & mopping the floor & washing clothes... oh today we oso changed our bedsheet... had much fun doin tat tgt... b4 we noe it, it's time for lunch again... great time realli passes so fast... came home after lunch, i wanted to get started with my project.... but ended up falling aslp... a 2 over hrs of nap... wahahhaa.... so shiok... while pin was studyin thru'out... i tink.... geez... preparing to go out for dinner & haf a break....

last mon nite.... pin & i reached home.... we saw tis insect tat was flyin ard in our room & realised tat it was a hsefly.... a commando hsefly... coz it can fly veri fast.... usually i dun bother abt hsefly unless it gets near the food.... however, it can be veri irritating to haf dem in ur bedroom flyin ard.... i tried to use something to ward it out... but in vain.... pin started tryin to use his hands to catch... i said he's ridiculous.... how can he ever catch it.... to our surprise, pin did it while the hsefly was on the bed.... we were both atonished.... pin was gg to get a tissue to take it away, while i took out my hp, tryin to take a pic of it.... suddenly it kinda woke up & fly away again.... urrrgh.... we should haf quickly grab it & throw away.... so now, its still somewhere in the room, flyin ard.... wahahhaa.....

SoUtHeRn IsLanD ViSit

Home & had a good bath wif scrub... managed to come home early coz i wasnt in office today... but tat doesnt mean i wasnt workin yah.... i'm now working on tis assignment... coz of tis, i had the opportunity to visit the southern islands.... didnt visit all tho... we set off fr marina south pier... after an hr's boat ride, we finally reached pulau hantu kechil, then pulau hantu besar (which is very near to each other)... from here, we went on to the small sister's island... we even climbed up to see the water tank.... coz we tot it's realli a rare opportunity.... geez.... veri high hor.... we saw campers on the island too... oh, big sister's island is just opposite, but we didnt went on it... by tis time, its abt 12plus... we proceeded to kusu island, where we'll be settling our lunch at the temple... we were served wif fried rice, followed by fruits... to our surprise, the fried rice was pretty good... other den the famous temple & turtles tat we had seen, we had oso climbed up to take a look at the kramat (malay shrine)... on our way up, we actually saw tis huge monitor lizard.... yuckzzzz..... our last stop was st john's island... there're bungalows (wif aircon) & some holiday camps (its actually like dorms lah) for rent.... the place is veri quiet & scenic... in fact, the few islands tat we've went today, are veri quiet & peaceful.... oh yah, tis the boat tat we took for the entire day.... & tis the team from my coy... finance & ops....

its great to be finally back onto the main land.....

tHeY JuZ kEeP COMING...

1st was 'xiao qiang'... nx was....

juz 2 days ago, fri nite... back from care grp... had our shower... josh went on the comp wif his game while i was on the bed, leaning against the wall, wif pillows stacked... watching my hk drama.... it was past 1am... suddenly pin turned, looking at my direction & said... ITS SO BIG..... immediately i turned & to my horror, i saw tis big, black lizard on the wall, juz right next to my stack of pillows.... i quickly jumped off the bed, yet trying my veri best to keep a low key so as not to alert the lizard... my instinct told me to pull the bed away fr the wall & grab all the pillows... frankly, i was too shocked to tink of wat to do... my brain was freezed... pin said to get hot water but we cant splash water... so he said to get him some newspaper.... pin got hold of the papers & i asked him to aim to hit right at the head.... & he did it.....

it was such traumatic nite....

An uninvited guest

645am, pin’s alarm rang… I was awoken & in my half conscious state, I turned to pin’s side… fr e corner of my eye, I saw something on his pillow moved… I tot my eyes were playing tricks on me as our bedsheet has many checks…. However, on 2nd tot, pin’s pillow case is plain and when I saw it moved again, I knew something is not right…. Immediately I sprang off fr e bed & switched on the lights… grab a piece of paper & told pin softly tat there’s a cockroach right below his pillow… so as not to alert it... he got up, tried to catch but missed.. it slipped away… & reappeared… pin missed again… it got onto the floor… I quickly grabbed the insecticide & sprayed… pin missed Again & it got under the cupboard… by tis time, I got a little frustrated coz pin juz cant seems to catch it…. But again I tot, its not his fault, so I tried to cool down… finally pin managed to catch it under the cupboard…

Wat a thing to begin our day..... & even week…..
