gathering photos




met my old friends recently. A few of them cannot turn up, but it is good to see the rest. Went to the Holland Village 211 roof terrace cafe.
exchange some updates and finally my best friend has decided to settle down next year end. Another friend will be getting married next year also. Quite alot of good news. Heard some not so good news also, but I guess this kind of thing is quite common nowadays. It is really not easy for a marriage to work out well.

Post some pictures of my good friends.

Finally.....a gathering

Finally...will be having a gathering with friends this friday night.I have not seen my group of close friends for like 2 years??? Have not been to a gathering for that long. But I know we have build up a strong foundation since sec/Jc times and even if we had not met for a few years, the bond will still be that strong. Maybe that is the difference between man and woman. My hubby met his friends once a week for supper/dinner. Almost every week he will have something on. But for me, I meet my friends like once a year?? or twice a year??

Once a woman is married, the focus will shift to kids and family. If my kids are sick, or if I am not well. Even if there is a once in a 100 years special event, I will not go also. The 1st place in my heart will always be my kids. And I know I have to be well, then I can take good care of them. I guess for me to really do what I want to do without having to "think", will be when my kids are big enough to look after themselves. Then I can have my own way of doing things, for the next 20 years, I will put my kids the top piority 1st.

the skill of using one chopstick



My big girl trying to eat la mian by using one chopstick instead of one pair of chopsticks. I think she find it easier to eat by using one chopstick.

The miracle weed or coincidence?



My small girl has been very cranky since the 1st month. And we had a hard time, esp when she wants to sleep. She will cry for quite a long time b4 settled down to sleep. Very tiring esp for my mum who is taking care of her almost everyday.have been enduring for abt 8 months, and one day my mum suddenly thought of a certain kind of weed.( belief passed down from long time ago, maybe from some old folks)
Last time when my mum babysit my cranky and itchy fingers cousin, she also use the weed to "deal" with him.....

My father went dun know some ulu place to pluck the weeds. Its actually not too uncommon, it grows on the fences and certain places where they can have support, as they are those crawling kind of weeds. Last time my father used to pluck near the Jurong East/west canel, but now the place has got limited weeds.

My mum boiled the weeds, and used the water to bathe my small girl. Put some fresh weeds in her pillow and in the room.

Actually the weed has got a very strong smell which smells like "chicken shit", in hokkien the weed is called " kuei sai tin" means "chicken shit weed".

I try to find the weed somewhere over the past weekend, and to confirm my findings, I just need to smell the leaves of the weed and if it smells like chicken shit, then I got the right one....haha....can't believe I'm doing this kind of thing.

There was once my hubby ask me if my big girl has poo poo, like got shit smell. And I smell my girl, theres no shit smell, then I realised the "power" of the "chcken shit weed" which I stuff inside my big girl's pillow..haha... The whole room got a funni smell. But it really doesn't smell that bad.

whether its the power of the "chicken shit weed" or its just coincidence, I dun care so much. The fact is, my small girl in the same week where the weed is used, has stopped being cranky b4 sleep time and can really sleep better.

personally, I felt that if its the power of the weed, then there should be some scientific reason behind the weed. Maybe the smell from the weed is soothing? has some calming effect? just like some plants like lavender, they have a stress reliefing effect, so I supposed the weed also work in the same way? Or can it be just coincidence? hmm..........

Now my father over the weekend will go and find the weed and pluck like supply for 2 weeks. Sometimes I happened to see the weed, I will also pluck some back. Just plucking the weeds make me feels like I'm back to my kampong days....but then I'm now so paraniod about insects/spiders on the weed and I know I'm not the same old kampong girl already. And if I dun say, I dun think anyone whould have guessed I once lived in kampong.

my small girl at 8 months plus



my small girl at 8 months plus has 2 teeth and can sit up and crawl also. very cheeky, now always try to find things to open esp. drawers, she will crawl over and pull. She seldom smile. Always stare at people. Look very fierce. I have spent some good time with her for the past 2 weeks. Took her to Jurong Point for a few times. She enjoy going out to "gai gai", once mentioned the word "gai gai", she will start to wave her hands like saying bye bye.

小女人和大女人

每一个女人都有“大女人”和“小女人”的时候。
我觉得在工作方面,自己是个大女人。因为受不了工作效率太差的人,因为觉得自己做得到别人也应该做得到。在工作方面,我是不拘小节的。给人的感觉应该是比较豪爽的类型。

但是在家庭方面,在面对家庭琐事的时候,自己又像个小女人。有很多事情我会放在心上,像个典型的小女人,在夜深人静时,在失眠的时候,开始斤斤计较过去的事情。

我觉得只有自己的母亲了解自己的女儿。做了母亲以后,我才开始真正懂得疼惜母亲。我的母亲那么操劳,可以安享晚年却帮我照顾女儿。一天24小时,尤其现在,我大女儿生病的时候,她帮我带小女儿,整整2个星期没有放一天假。我好心疼母亲。我的母亲很能吃苦,可是我不希望她那么辛苦。她不会因为辛苦就动不动说“我没办法,你自己照顾”。她不会为了让自己轻松,而拒绝帮忙。

我也不希望那么快就让大女儿到托儿所去。我也想让她完全康复后再回去,但是这可能还要等一两个星期。我也有工作,我不是只有一个女儿,我也要让自己的母亲休息以下,我也要陪陪小女儿。大女儿不去托儿所,谁来照顾?是你吗?很多事情光用嘴巴说很容易,我也知道什么对孩子最好,但是做得到吗?我最不喜欢光说不会做得人。

悼念一朵在枪林弹雨中凋零的花

她是一朵那么娇艳的花,不该在枪林弹雨中凋零。
她的勇敢和镇定,所能承受的压力已经超出一般人所能承受。
我连想象当时可能发生的事情都会觉得恐惧。

会考口试曾经出过这样的题目:你认为是恐怖主义可怕还是沙斯可怕?
是恐怖主义吧?
最起码,面对沙斯的时候,亲人在身边,所有的牵挂,放得下和放不下的都在身边。

在生命的最后一刻,没有亲人的陪伴,那么无助,万分恐惧。在全然陌生的环境,毫无心理准备,不知为什么的情况下,就这样牺牲了。多么宝贵的生命却这样无辜地被夺去。

花样的年华,灿烂的生命,在一朵花绽放得最艳丽的时候,却不知为什么凋谢了。
这么壮烈的凋零,让人心疼。
留给我们的是震撼和遗憾。

helpless

I dun know whats happening to my girl....Her fever came back and the highest hit 39 this evening. I am just back from my PD clinic at Jurong. Took a cab down from Yishun after I phone my Pd regarding the fever. Was told to go down immediately. The whole day today, my girl was telling me she want to sleep. from morning to evening, she seems very tired. Her cough not better. and fever is back.

Felt like crying. I'm so stressed. Whats happening to her? The Pd say if tomolo morning still fever, have to go hospital to do x ray. He is still worried that its fei4 yan2. I will still have to visit the doctor tomolo afternoon. The blood test result will be out.

My girl seems to be very weak. I felt like a useless mother......I am so worried. worried about the big one, and worried about the small one who is so cranky and giving my mum such a hard time to take care. Worried about my hubby who is also sick. worried about my mum who seems to overwork taking care of my small girl and she seems to be falling sick too. Worried about myself, if I fall sick, who is going to look after my 2 kids..... I'm so stressed....

I cannot fall sick.....

doctor visit

my elder girl is still sick. she had high fever 41degree on sunday.was thinking whether to go to hospital sunday nite, then decide to phone my usual PD. Monitor her for 1 nite, the next day, took her to see the PD. Took a cab down to Jurong. She had serious bateria infection. took a blood test as the Pd was scare that her lungs may be infected. I regret not seeing gd doctors but took her to normal GP for so many times, until now she has been coughing more than 1 month. Now end up with more agony and more money spent. The Pd phone in the nite regarding the blood test report and luckily her lungs are ok. Was asked to go for follow up check tuesday. And for these 2 visits, cost me about $500 in total. Have to go for follow up check again this Saturday.

The medical bill for myself and kids for this month come up to $1000. My hubby is also sick. fever. But he still had to go to work as he need to travel to Jakarta this morning. But will be back tonite.

I am still not compeltely well. Still cough at nite. But well enough to take care of my girl. Have not fetch my small girl back for 2 weeks as I did not want the virus to spread to her, without the virus, she is already cranky enough.

cough and cough

my elder girl still cough in the night despite seeing 2 times western doctor and 2 times chinese doctor.

I am still coughing despite seeing 2 times chinese doctor. My night cough is so jialat that I can hardly sleep. I am so worried that I will not be able to take care of my small girl over the weekend. I am coughing so much that I think I am going to cough my lungs out. Can hardly say a few sentences and start to cough...luckily its in the sch holidays, if not how to teach.

I have given up on the chinese doctor already. later will be going to see western doctor.

My father also not well last sunday. Giddiness and vomitting. I think its due to high cholestrol. He is still on MC today. Hope he will go to work only when he is really ok, sometimes he is so stubborn that he think he is ok and can work anytime.He gets bored at home easily. Hope everyone will be well fast.

updates

For the past one week, I have been marking at Tiong Bahru for the GCE O level chinese papers. I think another few more days, marking will be complete. Have been having lunch everyday with Serena (Ms Ang).

I am down with flu since last week. have not recovered yet. Dun know how long it will take to recover this time. And I missed Serene's baby boy full month celebration as I did not want to go and spread virus around.My big girl is still having cough, about 1 month already, seen many times doctor but no used. i guess the childcare centre also got other kids who are sick, that is why when she about to recover, go there then come back sick again, very diffult to recover. I am thinking of taking her to see chinese doctor to build up her body resistance. She is a bit weak, but cannot take the cod liver oild as she will get "heaty" and end up with fever. I have already given up on the cod liver oil.

My small girl having "fake measles" last week. make me so worried.Yet I cannot go back and see her as I was just starting marking. Luckily my mum takes very good care of her for me and I have a very good PD who is on call 24 hours for my girl. Now she is ok already and almost back to usual. I am also unable to go back and see her this week, I think I can only go back Jurong on Friday. Felt a bit guilty as I have not been spending enough time with my small girl. I remember when my big girl was about the same age, I spent alot more time with her.

My small girl learned how to wave bye bye at 6 months. Now at 7 months, she can do "gong xi gong xi" hand action, good practise for next year chinese new year. My mum and dad spent alot of time with my small girl and I am really grateful that they helped me to take care of my girl so well. I can concentrate on my work without having to worry about things at home.

I met Valerie on MRT today, on my way home from marking centre. She is still the happy, bubbly girl whom I taught when she was in sec 1. Now she is already sec 4, and still as bubbly as before. I was wondering if wanjing is still the same quiet and gentle girl. seeing Valerie makes me think of the sec 1 red cross girls that year.I kind of missed the days when I was in JWSS.(minus the existence of Mr B). Miss my favourite classes 4N1 and 3E1. Now that Mr B is leaving the school, have the urge to go back to teach....as a thought lah. There are still too many uncertainty over there. New VP and new P. As for my side, I will be having a new HOD next year.Hmm..........also some uncertainty over my side.

I hope everything will be well. I will still be on part time teaching scheme, this time round will be 2/3 workload and 2/3 pay. with no form class and CCA. And teaching 4 classes. And having one free day.

high cholestrol

recently went for a check up as i wanted to buy a new insurance plan. And becoz of my previous high cholestrol level, I want to test it again. 3 years ago, the level was about 284. Now it is about 278. Still very high. Dun think it has much connection to my diet as I din really eat alot of high cholestrol food. Even though I like to eat eggs and seafood, but I did keep track and control my intake of these food. Guess most probably its due to family history as high cholestrol runs in my family.

and the lion is waiting for you to drop and be his lunch.


Your survival hinges on the rope staying intact, there is no one
around to help you. What to do now ..........

another relative left

These few years, i have quite a number of relatives left this world and joined another. starting in 2005 my da3 gu1 died from dengue fever, then followed by my san1 gu1 died from a head injury due to a fall in kitchen last year, then followed by my only grandmum died from old age last year, and then now my er4 shu1 died from heart and lung problem. He went in SGH on Thursday night, heard that he fell from his bed on saturday morning(national day), and passed away shortly after the fall.

I am not very close with this uncle, but there was one period in my childhood where me and my brother were quite close to him, but as we grew older, we become less close to this uncle for some reason. Seems like these few years there were too many funerals going on. I hope everyone can be healthy and live to ripe old age.

开学恐惧症

我想我是患上了开学恐惧症。休息太久了,就不想回校了。像早上赖床一样,真的提不起精神来。
原来不是只有小魔头不喜欢上学,其实还有很多人不喜欢上学,包括自己在内。
想太多。想到工作。工作会不会太多?薪金会不会太少?可以工作少,薪金多吗?做梦!
那么就工作少,薪金少。其实我并不是很在意薪金少。我希望自己不会太忙,希望不会太累,希望有更多时间陪小魔头和小小魔头。。。。。。

my baby girl can flip over!

my baby girl can flip over. She did that for the 1st time yesterday. But both me and my mum did not see that. When we look at her, she already flipped over.She is very much faster than my 1st girl. My 1st girl flip over at 4months plus.

where did I went?






I have not been posting recently. Alot of reasons. Busy Busy and more busy.
Tired looking after my baby as she is not a good sleeper at night. But now very very much better. And my elder girl went childcare since 1st July. I was very stressed in that 1st week as she was crying everyday in childcare centre. And she had nightmare everynight for that week. When I see and hear that, my heart ache. Thought of alot of other options other than send her to childcare.

I dun like the idea of employing a maid, so that is out. Thought of taking no pay leave to look after her for maybe another 6months. But she still have to go to childcare centre after that. She is 23months old, seems to be the youngest in the childcare centre. Now is the 3rd week already. This morning I went her down to the centre, she was crying also. And at 10am when I look down from my flat, I can see her at the playground, she is still not playing with the kids. Just holding the hand of a teacher and walking round and round the playground. And when she cannot see the teacher, she start to cry. But there is improvement already, at least today she did not suck her pacifer at the playground and did not carry her sleeping pillow with her. I will be starting work next Monday. I hope by then she will love school....hmm.....is there any kid who love school??

And I went for a Japan tour in end of June. To Hokkaido. wanted to see the nice nice lavender fields, but its not the blooming session of lavender, they dun look as good. End of July will be the best to go and view lavender......if go in August, can see nice sunflowers.

And I just came back from a Malacca trip yesterday. went sat early morning and came back yesterday night. I think my girl is enjoying all the trips. She seems to be able to adpat to the trips well, but how come not adpating so well to childcare?

These are some of the photos taken in the Japan trip:)

my baby girl is about 3.5 months old!



realised that I had not post any photo of my baby girl.
These 2 photos are taken recently.

finally...some good sleep for me

have not been posting recently as i wasn't in good state. ever since my confinement lady left and i shift back to my mum house, i have not been sleeping well. My baby don't sleep at nite and i din sleep for like 1 week for the 1st week. only nap like an hour or so in the day as i still have to entertain my big gal. I think I have aged alot just after one week. but now the problem is more or less solve. my baby gal is a difficult one, but she wins as she got herself the luxury of sleeping in a yaolan. i have to give in, bought an electric one, and she enjoy sleeping inside, i can get some good sleep finally. And she also got herself a pacifer, but just a pacifer or juz the yaolan is not good enough, she wants both. so have to suck pacifer and put her inside the yaolan, and hold the pacifer for her until she sleep, then she can sleep longer.

And I over exert myself when i carry my big gal. end up the area above my c -sec wound start to swell immediately after that. that was what happened last week. Now the swelling has gone down. should be ok i think. Will be going down to see my gynae for the last time this thursday, will ask him about the wound. I still feels a bit of pain when i press area around the wound.

the weather is so hot, i decide to install in my mum house, cannot tahan liao. sweating so badly everyday. Have to get the aircon done by July, then evryone gets to enjoy it.

confnement ending soon..........

my confinement will officially end next thursday( labour day), my confinement lady will go back Malaysia. She has been a great help to me and takes care of me and my baby very well.

My c-sec wound is almost painless liao, juz a bit uncomfortable, I think in another one or two weeks, I should be able to be as mobile as b4, juz that cannot carry too heavy things. I cannot carried my 1st girl as she is now 9kg plus. 2 weeks ago, try to catch her down from bed and end up injured my left hand. Now my hand got no strength.

On 1 May, after sending off my confinement lady, I will shift myself and baby back to Jurong. Have to try to let the 2 girls live together and have to start potty train my 1st girl. She will be going to child care in July, hope by then she will be potty trained.

I hope my 1st girl will be able to accept "meimei", worried that she might be jealous.

finally..... the name for my baby

finally we have decided on the name for baby. We have very few options, as the names given by the fortune master all not nice. So in the end, we find another word with the same number of strokes to replace the 3rd word in the name.

So my girl will be call 叶 怡 杉. my 1st girl is call 叶 怡 伶. So the 2nd word in the name is the same. We wanted both girls to be happy, so we want to keep the word 怡.

2 photos from studio free trial session

injection

Today I took child sick leave to bring my ger for her 18th mth injection and doctor consultation. She is in a bad mood as she did not have enough sleep, and have to wake up early to go polyclinic for injection. My ger is only 8.4kg........seems like the weight taken last time is wrong. I always thought she is 9kg already.sighz......she eat so much but is so underweight.

Today I signed up for cordblood banking for my 2nd ger. thought about it for my 1st ger last time, but until delivery still din make effort to sign up, so i din bank my 1st ger cordblood. For 2nd child, got the CDA account, so can use for cordblood payment.

Next week my ger will go for swimming class for both saturday and sunday as one of the lesson is a make up lesson for the previous lesson she missed. She enjoyed her swimming classes alot. She gets very excited and will shout out loud.

Yesterday we bring her to a free photo studio trial session, and got 2 free photos.will upload the 2 photos later:)

Happy Chinese New Year!


Happy Chinese New Year to all!

my lastest gynae visit

went for my gynae visit yesterday. my hubby is on half day leave as well. So we bring our girl along. my girl is very talkative...even the staff at the clinic were amazed by how well she can talk. She is very sociable, now she like to say bye bye to everybody, including those who ignore her. She will go to my neighbour door and say bye bye to the pple inside, even though she dun know who they are.

my 2nd bb is due in early April. She is like my 1st girl, daytime sleep, nite time very active. yesterday nite she did boxing for a long time, and i can't have a good sleep. her hands and legs keep making shapes out from my stomach. She is now 1.4kg at 30 weeks. Her size is also around the same as my 1st girl.

recently took alot of photos of my 1st girl, but din put on blog, wait till I have more time, then will slowly upload.

Now quite busy with sch stuffs. Just finish the chinese new year concert stuffs, still have to set exam papers, mark compo etc. Have alot of things that need to be settle b4 I go for my maternity leave. Will activate my maternity leave on 31 march.

lastest update

yesterday i went for my gynae visit and baby is now 1kg at 28 week.
About the same size as my 1st girl. My 1st one was also 1kg at week 28.
This time round i manage to cut down my weight increase. At 28 weeks, i put on 8kg. The 1st pregnancy, I put on 11kg at week 28. Hopefully this time round i will be able to take a shorter time to slim down.

My next appointment will be 2 weeks later. That will be week 30. And my glucose and blood test result will be ready by then. hopefully i will not get diabetic.

a big scare

I had a big scare last thursday. Was halfway teaching my chinese lit lesson in the afternoon when i suddenly felt like vomitting and dirhearra. Tried to finish the lesson in a hurry and went to toilet. Puke all my lunch out and also diheorra at the same time. After that felt my stomach very tight.
Thought i was going to give birth liao. But only 27weeks.Too prematured. Call my gynae clinic, but gynae was overseas for a conference. I told the nurse i got stomach cramp, need to see doc. She help me to arrange for the relief gynae covering my gynae.
I sat at the bus stop waiting for her to reply me and seems like stomach cramp not getting better. was so scare that I was going to give birth liao, and i phone the clinic staff again. finally manage to get the relief doc, and i took a cab to A and E of mount A.
The nurses there were very nice and friendly. was given a wheel chair and push to the delivery suite. stayed there to monitor whether got contraction. rested for 30 minutes, actually felt better already.
when the gynae came, he said most probably i ate the wrong food...something to do with stomach flu whether. No regular contraction. I was so relieved.
Was given one day MC. But din used it as i have alot of work to do in sch the next day. Lucky it not real contraction, if not really dun know what to do. baby too premature to survive at week 27.

tomolo I will be going for my regular gynae appointment at Mount E. Have not seen my bby thro' scan for 1 month already. After tonite dinner, have to fast until tomolo morn 8plus after i take my glucose test. will be doing blood test as well. So tomolo will be on MC.
