Haphazard Thoughts

We were at Sim Lim Square and Hubby asked if I wanted Wii for my birthday.
"I don't have time to play games lah..".. And so, the hubby bought another (his forth) psp. Ya he is very free, unlike me. Gaa!

There's a reason why I never liked Sim Lim Square. It's saturated with utterly deceitful merchants. We had to make 3 resentful trips to the same shop to "fix" his gadget before it can be used to play games. Kaoz!

Anyway, talk about the coming trip to Bangkok for my first Managerial Conference. So afraid that I'll be trampled to death by the Red Shirts, the venue was changed to Kuala Lumpur.

And the first person to cheer in consent is the father.
The parents have been calling me every other day just to ask, "How now? You still going Bangkok ah? Don't go lah, let other colleague go lor..."
So it's the attitude of "other people die also never mind lah, own daughter must stay alive".

Wahahaa.. as I'm typing, Jamie is stamping up and down mimicking an elephant and singing "yippi yai yai yippi yippi yai...". Upon her demand, I have to play the lion. I wonder why, why lion? Hmm... bye!

No No No

The Hub made another proposal (out of countless failed attempts) about having another kid. And I totally snapped.
Guess what... he kept quiet immediately while I was all prepared for him to rebuke me.

Yes, Children are a gift from God and I think they all come with different agendas. Mostly they are here to brighten up your life. Whereas some are here to test your patience and some are here to take care of you when you're old (which is probably a 1 in 100 chance that they'll do so)

You cannot imagine what life will be when you have them.
But when you really do, you cannot imagine life without them.

Well yes, I cannot imagine what life will be without Jamie.
So there will be none other than my Little Princess.

And when I say "No", I mean it.
SO STOP BUGGING.

All I want for christmas

Merry Christmas from the Hub to me..

I Hate Mornings

Was roused from my sleep at the crack of dawn by some rustling sounds in the bedroom.
Nothing out of the ordinary, it must be the hubby as I thought to myself.

Me: "Bi.. Turn on the heater for me hoh...", heard him say "Orh.." and I quickly fell back into slumber.

Was once again jolted awake by my triple-alarm-clock-combo-ring at about 8am.. (okay I know the word, LATE)
I stumbled into the bathroom and began my morning routine, brush teeth, contact lens and into the shower I went.

Piercing cold water poured from the shower and bit onto my skin resulting in an instant freezing from head to toe. And the worst part, the main heater switch is in the kitchen.

Which means, I have to bundle myself in a towel, run out of the bathroom into my air-conditioned room, and pass the corridor into the kitchen, turn on the heater, wait for a good 5 minutes so it'll heat up, and back the same way. All wrapped in a towel?!?!?! It's Morning and it's cold lor!!!!

Great job Jayson Li.

You will be sorry.

Estatic? De-stressing?

Sometimes, she just puzzles me.. ..

Scream! Shout! Let it all out

All he wants for Christmas

Yo all!!!

Just thought I'd write some shit in here so you all know that I'm not dead.

Don't have much to say, except that the Hub reminded me that it's time to put up our Christmas tree but I refused plainly because I'm LAZY.
And since he mentioned, I casually asked what he would like to receive from Santa Claus a.k.a the-adorable-wife, for Christmas this year.. Nokia N95 8GB.

Guess he's getting tired of his Dopod already.

My dearest Baby.. what is your Mrs going to do? And you are so very 不客气 hor?!
Humf! An eye for an eye.. .. .. You jialat liao! I won't let you go easy either.. ..

Die
Dying
Dead, not yet but soon though.

It is ...

papa, the taxi driver

The cab ride to work this morning wasn't very pleasant and it also stirred some emotions in me.

Because I was later than late, I didn't have time to walk to the ATM for cash withdrawal. I asked the driver whether he would accept NETS payment before boarding which he answered with a nod and a "有".
Upon reaching my office, he asked whether I want to drop at an ATM to withdraw some cash..

I almost wanted to scream at him can.. "Hallo Uncle?? I asked whether you accept NETS and now you want me to drop somewhere and withdraw cash to pay you?! You okay anot?!?!!"

But I refrained from doing so because I could almost visualize Papa being the driver.. and I started to wonder where he would be, now..


You see, Pa is now a cabbie driver.


I don't know why but I'm getting rather upset at the thought of my dearest father encountering nasty passengers who might "bully" him. Argh!
I'm now the most concerned member of the family and am constantly asking about his day, asking about his passengers...
Actually, part of me still prefers Pa to work in his ex-company rather than being a cabbie driver.


Okay, i'm acting up again..

If only I can make plenty of money, I'll ask Pa & Mdm Chong to stop working once and for all.. But *sigh* If Only.

Something that I've been telling him, repeatedly..
"老豆，please don't let anyone take advantage of you hor.. Customers are not always right you know."


Oh... 世上只有爸妈好。。。

Adventure has no limits

I've not stopped feeling uneasy since the day Hub bought his WRX, partly due to his adventurous driving, the way he speeds and the way he cuts lanes. And the fact that he's been spending a lot of time and money to 'zhng' & improvise his latest fancy. New exhaust pipe, new air-flow controller, new stabiliser, new spoiler, added a blow-off valve which makes the turbo go "vrooom-psssssss-vrrooooom-pssss…", and more stuff to add.
I've since became very alert each time we're on the road, looking out for other vehicles.

Anyway I'm enjoying the ride as much as he is. The thrill from travelling at 160km/hr is simply 'whoa' and addictive.

AOH - NS 40

Today hub brought us to the Army Open House and you know how ridiculously crowded these events can get. However, in an effort to have a better understanding of hub’s job, I agreed to go.

The two major highlights of the whole event are the Apache Fighter helicopter (neh, the one we saw flying with the Singapore flag on National Day’07) and the Leopard Tank.

I think it’s really absurd how people are able to line under the blazing sun in order to sit in the apache for less than 5 seconds and the cool poor pilots were instantly demoted into queue attendants for the day.
However I managed to beat the queue by making an illegal entrance from another side the fighter craft. Then a nosy parker auntie ‘discovered’ me and started to make squeaky remarks. Eh, who say must queue huh? Shoot me with the apache lah!!

The Leopard Tank.
And so I was like going “wah” here and “wah” there while looking at all kinds of military equipments and weapons of mass destructions. Cool as they may be, I can’t help but started to feel bored after some walking so we left for Comex.

Once more, another mob scene at the Suntec Convention hall. We bought a printer, because hub said “buy printer got free trolley leh” and we got a free trolley indeed. Bought a 4GB thumb drive to save more of Jamie’s pictures.

Speaking of Jamie, this is how she looks when crying and refusing to get dress for dinner. Horrible girl I say.

the rex

His new found LURRVE..


His new Subaru Impreza WRX 2.5 and it certainly feels great to be riding the 'rex'.

Dear Uncle

You can be such an irritating jackass sometimes.

I was so tempted to call you up many a times and hurl verbal abuses at you and your ever-so-lovely-wife-from-china. But the only thing that's stopping me is the fact that you may become too embarrassed to face our family or your mother ever again.
And I thought, why waste my breath on such abhorrent and sickening villains.

I cannot believe you DARED ask my mother to bring grandma to the hospital because the time of the appointment was too 'early' for you to wake up. And you even had the nerve to suggest to my mother that she should take leave from work in order to bring grandma to the hospital, while you SLEEP?!
Frankly, your current state of being jobless does not matter to anyone of us, sadly. But fortunately for you, my mom did accordingly simply because she couldn't be bothered with your countless excuses.

Also, your ever-so-lovely-wife-from-china? You might as well just kick her back to where she came from. Maybe it's just her obvious disrespect for her mother-in-law (my grandma), that not even once did she ask about the old woman's deteriorating health. I recall clearly that the only time your wife requested for grandma to stay over was because someone's gotta take care of the baby just so that you and your ever-so-lovely-wife-from-china can go to Genting Highlands. So can I bluntly say that only in times of need will you remember your mother.

I don't know which part pisses me off the most: is it your irresponsibility towards your own mother? Because your wife don't enjoy seeing the old woman?!
And my mom, she is a remarkably great woman even though she isn't as highly educated as you are. Being a working mother, she takes excellent care of her own kids, husband, grand-daughter, her mother-in-law(my grandma), while a jobless man and his ever-so-lovely-wife-from-china can't even handle one baby. Put some effort into your act so I could at least find a morsel of respect for you.

ANYWAY, I hope your son grows up to be as unfilial as you are now and that he marries a lovely woman from china who loathes your ever-so-lovely-wife-from-china, MUAHAHAHAHA! Nincompoop!


With Regards,
Jade

Farewell Hobbit

Jamie roamed around the house searching high and low, checked all possible corners where Hobbit would usually be at but she finds no "woh-woh".

Everyone loves Hobbit, especially Jamie. She'll hug and kiss him, feed Hobbit with baby biscuits.. Although she sometimes kicks and whacks him for no particular reason but Hobbit never gets angry at Jamie.

And because I cannot bring Hobbit with me and Mommy is too busy taking care of Jamie. Dad has chosen to give him to someone who likes dogs and is able to spend more time with the dog. Hobbit's new owner is an ah-cek who owns a shop next to Dad's work place and currently has a Jack Russell, so Hobbit has company now.

Talk about kicking, Jamie almost wanted to kick Ivan's "Rag-doll" several times. Haiz.. With regards to her kicking small animals, I'm so totally amused yet helpless. Wahahaha!
Even if I slap her legs telling her not to do so, she simply couldn't be bothered.

Gawd. How ar?!

Jamie Goes Gai Gai

Thanks to friends and colleagues who helped fulfill the following items on my wishlist.

And most of all, THANK YOU HUBBY! For the 2 Gucci bags that you gave me.

Wahahaha!!

Happy.. Sha-la-la.. it's so nice to be happy.. Sha-la-la..

And Jamie was more excited than I was on my birthday for she paced around the house hinting that she wanna go ''gai-gai''.

(Ready to go?)

(Quick.. or I shall stick my 'pisai' on your new 'goo-cee' bag)

(Eh.. wait ar, think I forgot something..)

She still carry the bag until so 'wu-seh' (got style).. Faintz*

New Toys

Jamie has crazy parents.
One walk around Toy ‘R’ Us store and she ends up with her own swing and slide.

Gosh! Kids these days…

Jamie is ONE

Jamie is turning ONE on 11th April 2007! We celebrated her 1st Birthday in advance on Sunday, 8th April, along with loads of food, people and a double chocolate cake. -Sweet-

Now let me digress a little...

Pizza Hut has once again let me down for they screwed up their delivery for the SECOND time. And my poor colleagues have to bear with their hunger again. Shucks!

Oh, did my previous entry mention that after the lengthy 'feedback' letter I sent the last time, they actually offered me a free pizza. Well, I have yet to redeem that pizza because The Husband strongly believes that they'll add 'extra' ingredients just for me. Wahahahaha!!!

Well anyway, lets come back to the birthday.. Yup, on Sunday.

Truth is, I have no idea how to put the day's event into words.. so just let the video and photos describe it all.

Double Chocolate Birthday Cake, "Round About" from The Patissier






All that was left after the party & I have no idea know who did this... WHO BROKE MY LETTER ONE?!?!?!

*********

Out of her many prezzies & ang paos, this is her favourite...

Princess Mini-Coupe, nicely parked in her room.

When asked whether she enjoyed herself, she nodded. Yep, she's HAPPY! And I'm glad.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DARLING!
