Two hours late to a wedding

What happened tonight is sure worth telling. A close friend is getting married, and hubs being the anti social person that he is, volunteered to take care of the kids so that my sister will accompany me to the wedding dinner. He was supposed to be back home at 6.30 but he didn't reach home until an hour later. Cocktail party starts at 6:30 and dinner at 7:30pm and imagine a furious me yelling at hubs over the phone asking why is he not back home.

Never mind that we are late, we got lost on the way to the hotel. We just went round and round Putrajaya to search for the IOI Marriot when the fact is IOI Marriot is not even in Putrajaya. Dang!

It rained so heavily and make it all tougher for us to find the place. We got there only at 8:20, which was really embarrassing, but we sure weren't the last ones there. The bride looks so beautiful with her model-like makeup and gorgeous gold wedding gown. Just wondering which Beauty Schools did the artist graduated from. I would sure like to know.

To my good good fwen

Tonight, we celebrate their love. It's sure nice to see that someone you know finally want to settle down to have a family. I must say that he's a lucky man, given that his wife is such a beauty and such a darling too.

Both of them look so lovely together. May I wish the both of you the very best and may this wedding be a start of a wonderful lifetime journey together.

Cartoon: a good thing or bad?

What's the best thing you can do on a rainy evening? Take a long long nap of course. I did just that, after we got home from rally. The kids on the other hand, spend an entire evening watching cartoon after cartoon, noddy and friends, pocoyo, ben 10 top their favourite cartoon list.

Do you let your kids watch cartoon on tv? Many months ago, my sister re-subscribe the cartoon channels after I banned the kids from watching it. To me, it's a waste of time to let kids watch cartoons, not to mention that tv can be quite addictive. Seriously, if left unattended, they'll sit there an entire day doing nothing else but eyes all glued on the tv. Also, kids who spend so much time watching cartoon spend so much lesser time studying or reading books. Agree?

What has the society become?

I cannot help but wonder if my kids will abandon me in an old folks home when I'm old and useless. You know how ailing old folks can be quiet a handful, especially those who no longer has control over their own body and need help to go to the toilet.
My grand-aunt was such a case. She died a few days ago, after a fall. Her children could have done better for their mother, but they just leave her lying there all day long with a adult diaper on, they don't even care to dress her up, instead drape a piece of towel over her naked body. Well, a classic tale of an old woman's suffering. How in the world her children have the heart to leave her in that condition I wonder. That's the meanest thing one can do to their parents. I hate to think further.

In my humble opinion, the least they can do is provide her mother with the proper care, like such of Fort Lauderdale Home Health Care, if they haven't got time to take care of their mother. It's sure reassuring to know that the one you loved is in the care of someone you can trust. Really, I don't know what got into them, not my business afterall. All I care about now is to raise my son well, so that he'll grow up into a decent man who respects not only me and his daddy but all elderly people, so I won't ended up a pity woman like that aunt.

Seriously, this early!

This is the earliest I got out of bed on a weekend. Hubs just leave home with my brother. At 7 am in the morning, those two late owls are already out of the house. The race is starting in an hour's time. Just hope that they won't get stuck in a traffic jam, yes on a Saturday. Crazy isn't it?

I just chucked some clothes into the washing machine, while waiting for it to wash, here I am, doing some early bird blogging. Just got to kill some time to before chucking the laundry into the dryer. Waiting is really not very fun.

FB- you know you love it

I'm starting to think that this facebook thing is getting a little scary here. I hesistated for so long before signing up as a member, and suddenly just because I wanted to view someone else's photo in there,I was in already. All in a matter of a split second. Didn't even think twice there. Well, my sister was really quite persuasive there. Anyway, before long, I suddenly get the urge to add as many friends as possible, every Tom Dick and Harry I ever know! Gosh, that's where it got so out of control.
Now comes the scary part, I realised that this world is all too small. Every one I know, acquintances or otherwise, suddenly all became my best friends. We view each other's photos, make comments (flat-out sweetest ones), and greet every one Happy Birthday. Boy, no more lonely birthdays for now. And how in the world my childhood friend know my circle of mommy blogger? Oops, the world just get smaller. In fact, I dig in a little further, just to make sure this friend of mine did not just add my other friend by mistake. True enough, they commented on each other's photo. They are friends, not through me but by other means. My world now has officially shrink! Thanks to facebook. So, is this a good thing or bad?

My tedious life

Oh man, didn't know life without a maid is so tough. So many house work to conquer, so little time. Honestly, the house don't has to be all that squeaky clean, the clothes don't need to be all that tidy, and a messy bed is totally fine once in a while, because if I were to put 100% into every task I do in the house, I'll have to repeat what I do all day long because with two little kids in the house, clean is now such an impossible word to use.

I used to be so free, like a queen. So free in fact that I could easily find time to pursue an online degree with school mba. Seeing how busy I am now, I really have no choice but to put that option on hold. Now, I'm stuck with all sorts of errands like picking up Marcus from school, making meals, bathing the kids, keeping the house clean, doing the laundry, ironing and the thing I hate to do most is to clean the dog shit twice a day, make it two dogs, 4 times a day! I just cannot wait for the new maid to arrive. Just hoping it'll be pretty soon.

Little Models

Love this pic of the boys so much. They're just so natural posers, right? Took this photo over the weekend after we went to Ryan's concert. Good thing that I brought my Nikon D60 with me. The moment the kids saw this big brown bear, all of them immediately ran towards it and gave it a big hug. Of course, it's too huge for them, so one settled for hugging the bear's feet, one went for bear's arm. I've got more photos of the kids posted at my other blog. Check out my little models. Yeah!

What are you?

I just found out that there's this term called millennials. Sounds like a combo of millenium and aliens to me. LOL.

Who are 'millennials'?

"Millennials" is one term sociologists use to designate those youths raised in the sensory-inundated environment of digital technology and mass media at the millennium. Unlike Gen X, which referred generally to people born in the 1960s and 1970s, this generation has yet to carry a name popularized by mainstream culture. Also known as "Echo Boomers," as the children of Baby Boomers, millennials were born from the 1980s on.

Are you one millenials? I thought so I am. Nowadays, people are coming up with all sorts of terms to make English more difficult to catch up. Is spicing up English all that necessary? I know baby boomers, but what's with the Echo boomers and helicopter parents? Really, that many terms! Go figure..

I think all girls are shopaholic

Right now, my feet hurts like mad. We were out shopping the entire day, me with a pair of lousy heels that feels like 2 blades slowly cutting off my flesh off my feet. Darn. I shouldn't have wore that pair of heels. I should have put on something flat and comfortable when I go shopping. I'm getting blisters on both sides of my toes.

You must be thinking what is so fun out there at the shopping mall? The thing is when you go shopping with your sisters, you sit down- grab a cup of milk tea and some food, chit chat, then you go try on some clothes or Designer Jewelry together, and bought some bras together and the next thing you know, the mall is closing already. You won't even realised it that you've been there for the past 7 hours. Seriously, you must be thinking we're a bunch of shopaholic, but I think girls are generally all like that. Agree?

I love weekend!

Yeah, this will be sure a weekend to look forward to. My twin sister will be coming home again this weekend to attend a friends' wedding and we'll sure be conquering a few shopping malls when she's back home. Good for us, we kind of have the same taste in clothings and fashion generally, so it's really enjoyable to go shopping together.
I'm so looking forward to Saturday and Sunday. Hope you have a great weekend too.

Be Part of the Game

I'm sure you know at least one guy out there who is a big fan of football. By big, I mean you can spot a "BIG FAN OF Blah-Blah CLUB" sticker on his car, and he can stay up late or even into the wee hours to watch his favorite game live.
It's amazing how some guys can be so addicted to football. So it only makes sense that Calsberg has launched a football web-TV-channel www.partofthegame.tv for football fan to have access to the world of football, live matches and much more. You can even get to watch football funny moments video clips and rituals from the Football Magic channel.
That's really a good news for football fans out there. Tell that to your boyfriend, will ya?

iLASIK™ Procedure

We were just chatting about some people lose the life-time opportunity to becoming a pilot just because of their bad eye sight, and some girls out there even dared themselves to get iLASIK™ Procedure through the modern laser vision correction technologies all because they want to be an air stewardess.

In today's world, iLASIK™ Procedure has become a procedure all too common, millions across the globe has benefited from it. If you were to search it on the Internet, there might probably be thousands of articles on LASIK information to clear your doubt. Over the past 5 years, thousands of NASA and the U.S. military has undergo these procedures to increase the performance of their mission-critical personnel using laser vision correction technologies. Having said that, it is proven that these procedures has got the upmost recognition and confirmation that even it the toughest of condition, when everything elses fails, LASIK technology has proven it's 100% effectiveness. In view of that, this might even mean that for many other people out there with vision problem, becoming a pilot might even a dream come true afterall.

Modern iLASIK™ Procedure uses two laser instead of one, it uses wave front technologies and an ultrafast, computer-guided laser creates a corneal flap and then after that is done, the wave-front mapping data guides a second laser for vision correction. This revolutionary procedures has been performed over 12 millions times, so if you're thinking of getting it, stop doubting and go for it.

I want my PR back

With my blog page rank down to zero, I hardly see any offers on my window. There's really no way of keeping a good PR if you don't work for it. Just like a marriage, PR needs maintenance. Those kind of maintenance that you got to work your s off, like making sure your page is well-linked, has visitors (the more the merrier), interesting articles so that people will come back wanting to read more.

Now that I've mentioned it, I think a marriage requires lesser effort to maintain. Perhaps my darling husband is so much easier to handle compared to other people's husband. First of all, I don't cook because DH never like home-cooked food, so we always eat out. Secondly, he never complains how dirty the house is or unsightly fat I am. LOL.

Therefore, I'm lucky. But my mom and aunt both think that DH is the luckiest man alive, because I'm so freaking good to DH. Or rather, I never raised my voice to him, question him or doubt him. Before I begin to sidetrack, let's get back to PR talk, I only meant to say, I want my PR back. A 2 will do me good. Thanks googley bear.

Stylish Glasses from $8

Silly me. Really silly. I was told by my cousin to get her half year worth of contact lenses supply which means 4 packs because it comes in 3 pairs per box. So, off I went to the local optical shop, asked for half year of contact supply worth 300 ringgit instead of contact lense of 300 degree. Maybe I wasn't paying attention when I was on the phone with my cousin, I was too busy looking at those gorgeous sunglass frames, putting it on when the salesgirl was busy attending another customer. I'd love to own a pair of dark colored frame eyeglasses, but those nicer and good quality ones can really cost an arm and a leg. RM800 for a pair of decent pair of eyeglasses, but still you won't know how long it can last, right?

I'd rather buy it online at ZenniOptical.com. They offered stylish prescription eyeglasses from as low as 8 dollars. It's that cheap! Besides getting one for myself, I'll also get a pair of eyeglasses for Shern's daddy. He has been using his old spectacles for years now, he sure need a pair of chic eyeglass, the current one he has on is too old-fashion if I might add. With the massive choices from ZenniOptical, rest assure, my pick will be far better than the existing one. Shern's daddy will sure be pleased. Not only that, they also sells sunsensor (potochromic) lens, tinted sunglasses lens, bifocal lens and progressive lens at a very reasonable price. If you're thinking of getting a pair of eyeglasses, be sure to check it out.

Another nigthmare begins

After what the previous maid did, I can honestly tell you I'm fed up with them already. We used to have 2 live-in maids, but that didn't turn out very well because they tend to keep each other's secret and got it all wrapped up among themselves. The maid we have now is yet another nightmare, and of late, she's showing her true colors, with all her lies, only to think that we're stupid.
My husband's prepaid phone simcard went missing, and she said she knew nothing about it. I knew she has it but she kept denying everything. If she wants to continue acting her innocence, I'm telling you, she'll be out of this house very soon. I cannot see myself compromise a maid I cannot trust. No way that is ever going to happen.

She better not let me find the missing simcard, else I'm so going to trace all her calls with reverse phone lookup service on PhoneInfoTracer.com. No worries, because Reverse phone lookups is totally confidential, they can trace a phone number or any missed calls from unknown phone numbers or an unknown number that appeared in my phone bill. This new maid knew exactly why the previous maid was sacked, after what happened with the last maid having secret flings with her boyfriends over her secret phone, she better not mess around with me.

Bump bump bump

It's a rough ride for me now. Bumpy ride. I don't want to sound all pathetic, but the ugly truth is I'm not doing fine now. I have things I have to deal with, and to get over with. All I need now is more time to think.
Having said that, update on this blog will be slow if not seldom. But you can always visit my BabyShern. He's cute you know.

Note: I'm fine. Just a little pathetic at the moment.

What's the most embarrassing thing you've ever shared with your mom?

When I was younger and single, I never ever tell or ask my mom anything about sex education, female reproductive organs or anything of that kind. I find it so embarrassing to even bring the topic up. But now that I'm a mother, I find it much easier to 'consult' my mom about these sensitive topics. Not that I have Genital Tract Chlamydia Infection, but when my vagina itches so badly even after I consulted my gynae, I called my mom and asked about her opinion. She lets me know that it's totally normal for women to sometimes get vaginal infection and that I need to go back to my gynae to get it checked. For the new few days, she called everyday asking if I'm feeling better. She's such a great mom.

Normally, what I'll do is to search on the Internet for more information regarding what I'm going through, in this case, vagina itching. Sites like Epocrates Online has a huge drug reference database on drugs and diseases to help people identify their problem. Not only that, used by over 500,000 healthcare and professional, this site offers the most comprehensive diagnose and assist clinician in prescribing drugs to their patient. You bet they're good.

“This announcement was paid for by Epocrates.”
