Shichida Prenatal Class

I'm glad that i've attended this cos it taught me about food that Nury institute did not elaborate in detailed. The course outline are more or less the same as Nury Institute. Nury institute was based on Glen Dorman's Finding and Shichida is based on Shichida's findings + jocelyn's research & experiences. I learnt about natural food from jocelyn & will try those & hopefully my baby will be healthier. However the 2 days course exchaust me, i'm feeling tired and nausea like b4!!

Now only i know that Andrea soft spot took so long to close, it is due to too much soft drinks intake during pregnancy! I drank coke everytime i'm out for dinner! 1 can of coke remove 18 sardines = amount of calcium removed from mother & baby! How scary.... :( I owe it to Andrea. Who say you can eat anything during pregnancy?? I believed that and see my little girl now she is so thin and soft spot has not closed 100% :( I'm really not a qualified mummy. I owe it to my girl, too much... I hope i could do better this time.

Shichida additional thing was that all the 5 senses is used, just like what Andrea did in class. There are a few non-shichida mothers, 1st time mum i guess, I'm not sure if they can fully understand & accept what is being taught! hahaha... I could hardly believe it until andrea joins shichida, i dind't know i could practise it on an unborn baby too. Its all in the mind and mothers need to open their right brain too, or shall i say use the alpha wavelength... i'm still practising and getting myself into this wavelength. Need full concentration.

2 days to 23 months

One more month andrea will be 2 years old!

She has grown so much, and i love her more everyday. She is such an obedient girl when im around and she always makes me smile. She would annoy my maid or daddy at times but will always be my angel.

1. I've just started brushing andrea's teeth 3 days ago. My maid did not clean her teeth thoroughly, my mum told me andrea's mouth smells & i could sometimes scrap some bacteria off her teeth! Anyway, andrea enjoy me brushing her teeth and is very cooperative.
2. Memory training at Shichida improves, daddy said she could always get 90% correct if not 100%.
3. ladder climbing skills improved at Kizsport, mum said that she could do the stairs without having the feet touching the ground.
4. Reading 10 Chinese books that my mum bought from popular and is enjoying it.
5. Loves her new Ikea table (big round blue table) that daddy bought last week, she loves it very much. Andrea does not need to do her homework on the floor now.
6. Can recite 11-20 without help
7. Sing Many songs by herself, latest song is bare necessity (the jungle book)
8. Start chatting with people, everyone in the house told me andrea chat with them. Andrea could ask you question and wait for your answer or to tell you a statement and you will surely respond to her. This goes on and it amaze everyone in the house.
9. weight 9.7 kg, 83cm tall
10. will say "cute" when she sees bunny (we bought her to bukit tinggi again few weeks ago & when we saw bunny cupcakes at delectable)

Back to work

I've been working from home for almost 1 1/2 months, time flies, however i've not completely recovered from my cough, flu & morning sickness yet. I'm at my week 16 & 1 day today, 4 months already but still not yet ended... hope it will go away soon. I'm worried right now, because i do not know if there is any problem with my stomach, why is it still feeling bloated and nausea too..

1st day at work, feeling extremely weak. I'm just back from my lunch & feeling sleepy right now. Sigh.... during the past 15 weeks, i've not done much, lazy around as usual and sleep whenever i can. I did not bring andrea to any class and hubby did all the work for me from small little things to big things. I've no idea how can i survive without him.

I'm going for a break this weekend. Hope i could enjoy myself and morning sickness will end by end of this week! finger crossed!

Feng Shui Module 1&2

I've attended Joey Yap's Feng Shui module 1&2 for the past 4 days, the information were overwhelming for me. I've attended it with my fellow Bazi course mates and 80% of them sit in for repeat for Feng Shui. It was because these modules has been upgraded & their previous feng shui lesson was not taught by Joey himself. They can grasp the information faster than i do & could do all activities/ practise that was asked by Joey, me... i take my own sweet time to refer to notes and try my best to do those activities. Most of the time i see how my friend does it.

It was very exhausted for me, being not pass the 1st trimester, i still feel extremely weak. I'm glad that i did not fall sick in between, if not my money will not worth it. As Usual, after a long course, i would need to do revision & memorize those important formulas.

Things to do:
1.read the course notes
2.memorize he tu & luo shu arrangement
3.each ba gua character, yin & yang form, directions etc
That's for this week. Alot Of things....

22 Months Old

Andrea is 22 Months Old today:
1. Sing lots of song - Twinkle twinkle little star, Rock a by baby, To market to market, I'm a little tea pot, Sing 2 Japanese song (fill in the blank type), A-Z song with no miss (that's all i can remember)
2. Learn to read some Chinese character
3. Upgrade to Little Rompers class in Kizsport
4. Likes to dance around and calling it Ballet
5. Still loving her hello kitty despite it has already turn black

Little Conversation

"scene 1"
Daddy: Andrea, go and change now, we are going out for Dinner.
Andrea: No
Daddy: Why
Andrea: Andrea is Lazy
(Lots of excuse)

"scene 2"
Andrea: ng ng... (wanna pee or poo)
Grandma: go and sit on your potty
Andrea: "walking around, looking for something. Pee out on the floor"
Grandma: Andrea, why you Shh Shh on the floor?
Andrea: I want the purple potty (new potty that grandma bought for her to be used in dad's car) (Choosy Girl)

"scene 3"
Mummy: How's the fish biscuit andrea? Nice or not
Andrea: Tasty
(Wide vocab)

a Little bit Better

These two days i feel a little bit better, nausea does not strike 24 hours anymore. I could have better sleep now despite still throwing up my breakfast/ lunch/ dinner, i felt very much like a human right now. The feeling of wanting to vomit really kills me, and how long does it last? about 2 months i think or a little bit lesser than that, Please Do Not Return!

I have also confirmed a place for Pre-natal class at Shichida in May, i hope i could gain some useful knowledge from there. I have also been working from home whole day for 3 weeks now, hopefully by May i have full energy to go back to work. I'm still feeling weak, can't stand for too long, can't concentrate for too long, can't walk for too long... all i did was lying down or sitting down.

No close friend is having a baby right now, i will be all alone going thru this pregnancy. I remembered having few pregnant friends together is fun and i feel more emotional secured, as in we complain the same thing and comfort each other because we are going thru the same, we exchange information on what to eat & exchange doctors advise etc, it's quite fun & enjoyable. I felt terrible this time, maybe i do not have anyone to talk to because hubby does not really provide me enough emotional support & with andrea around, it increases my stress level.

all in all, i hope i can go thru this & be a happy mummy!

How am i doing?

More than a week, im still feeling the same. I do not want to elaborate nor mentioned about MS, i just hope that it will go away by end of week 12! Keeping my finger crossed.

I work from home the whole week this week, thank god that i do not have telecon this week. However i do feel emotional threaten this week because of an evil friend that i have made and mistakenly brought her close to me at work. Since the day i told her that im pregnant, she start telling me real ghost related story that has actually happen around her or happen to her. I do not know how vicious this lady is but it does really affect my emotion. Hope my faith is strong and i could overcome this threat. Gohonzon, please keep me away from all these evils & give me strength to face it.

Not quite over yet

Life has been depressing. I cannot eat alot, i feel like vomiting 24hrs, feeling tired 24hrs, feel sleepy 24hrs, has metallic tongue, no energy to play with andrea or read to andrea, I feel that my life is so meaningless right now. When will this awful feeling disappear? I hate it.

Surprise

Happy! I had 12% profit today by selling my waseong. I have lost alot of money in my stupid Maybank, earning alittle from other stocks lift up my spirit. All i need to do is to wait and do cost averaging for my Maybank.

Someone from CnetG called me & asked if im interested for a fastrack management program. Salary from 6-7K. Wow, he even know I'm with IBM now and my position. I guess it must be Jobstreet. Better go update my CV at Jobstreet now. hehe.. Despite the bad morning sickness i've had, i have some happy time too :) 1 more month to go, hope it'll stop by week 12.

21 Months

Andrea was 21 months old yesterday. She can:
1. Sing simple song (missing out some words) - Happy Birthday. Ba Ba Black sheep, Ding Dong Bell and Hot Cross Bun + ABC until G only
2. Count 1 to 10 confidently, count 11-20 with help.
3. Climb ladders in Kidzsport that is meant for 2 year old kid. I was very amaze that she could turn her hands and turn her whole body to go down the other side. Hand and Leg coordination is really good.
4. Still loving Charlie and Lola. She learn alot of vocab from there, like Not bad was really hilarious when we ask her how's the food she is eating. It was a shock to us when we 1st heard it.
5. Favourite movie now is Strawberry Shortcake
6. Still wakes up for night feed, poor hubby. Andrea when do you want to stop torturing your daddy?
7. Likes to climb up on my mum's table and dance/ shake. (do not know how to jump yet)
8. Still eating soft rice (porridge like)
9. Likes to call 'Daddy Wake up' and 'Mummy Wake up' in the morning.
10. Still likes to do Homework, every night will tell me or hubby 'i want to do homework'

Lunch!

I've just eaten a 5 days expired maggi mee. oh Gosh... i don't know if im having a self punishment today but i was feeling really really uncomfortable, needed some spicy soup & egg. I can only find nissin mee & chicken maggi mee. Of course i choose the nissin mee & it's already expired 5 days, well i thought only 5 days, should be alright lah, the seasoning still looks ok, it's not harden yet.

Here, after that meal, i feel satisfied, i dunno how am i going to feel later. Hopefully won't be bad :) Tomorrow cannot work from home, i have 2 telecons.. argh hate it... Hope i can sleep a little later. My compliance testing results has 2 marginal again! argh... it's so irritating. When can i stop to become a police woman? quite stressful when everyone decided to go against the rule all together.

Tiredness Continues...

It was worst than my last pregnancy, i can vaguely remember i was this sick last time. Maybe i was happily travelling in the UK, i was happily eating 'walkers' when i feel bloated i guess, i didn't remember i was this sick and after 2 days of MC, my colleague still says i look sick! I have another 1 presentation this afternoon, i hate it, i wanna go home and sleep. I sleep almost 10 hours daily & still not enough.

Yesterday i vomited out, 1st time. Can't believe it's this soon. I remember my 1st one only vomit out when i was 4-6 months, MS was not bad last time, this time it strike me 24 hours & vomited somemore. I think i will put on more weight than the last pregnancy, oh god, i hope i can control my weight this time! Had my 1st checkup last Monday because of palpitations, hope it's really the teh tarik that causes this, i even feel breathless all the time now. Am i too weak or it's really the baby that is too rebellious! Gosh....

Sleepy

I was feeling not well, had terrible dizziness this morning. Feel like fainting, then i lie on my desk to rest for a min. At lunch time i had dim sum, had pan fried carrot cake (it was very nice) + jar leung (not nice, i was expecting something like royal china in London OK, I feel even more unwell after eating that). Overall was feeling better after lunch. Now im back at my desk, feeling all dizzy again.

Saturday Xu Wu

Wu Clashed with my Spouse Pillar Zi, Moreover Zi represent output & Wu represent direct officer. Had argument with husband that will change the situation. Clash is the worst relationship that u want to have, he may not be feeling anything after this, but I'm sure I will feel a change after this. Overall it's inside my chart not his. Good or bad change? I predict bad, Zi - water element, it's my favourite element and it's being clashed away.

Checked Husband chart, this month ding mao - mao clashed away xin in his natal chart. xin is in the spouse palace too, i may be feeling one day of clashed & aftermath but he will be feeling the whole month of clashed. Both has clashed in spouse palace, what a coincidence.

His = 7K clash away HO (spouse palace) - he feels power & authority & will use hurting speech to attack his wife
Her = DO clash away HO (spouse palace) - her husband will win over her hurting speech.
Overall who wins? he wins lah! but he will feel more pain than i am.

Shichida - 8 March 2009

Sensei Eiza was on sick leave, hence another sensei came to take over the class. I just want to say that it's really your pure luck to get a pretty & good pronunciation sensei. Our 1st sensei's pronunciation was a little bit out, this sensei was abit out. Current sensei is the best so far, pretty and with good pronunciation. Phew.. i dunno how long she will be with us. Hope as along as we are with this programme.

I've collected my 2 items from Tensai, now i've started addition song with andrea. Hope she can remember it soon and also improve her beta wave in her right brain. She loves the AIUEO song as well, she asked me to play it over and over again! Now only i know she enjoys Shichida class too, when she is listening to addition song and AIUEO song, she will tell me "like shichida, i want to go shichida". I'm glad she enjoys it!

Ding Mao Month

This month, i don't know if it's good or bad. Let me write it down and see when march ends.

ding fire and yi wood is my useful element, however mao clashes with you in my natal chart. "This clash generally indicates betrayal, backstabbing and a lost of trust to the people you trust or vice versa. One experiencing this clash finds trusted people turn against, and betray them. "

Ding fire appearing, I may find that my superior or husband supports me more this month (which i already feeling it, country managers respond to most of my emails recently). yi wood inside mao represent direct wealth, I guess my promotion that my ex-manager promised will not come true? It has a clash on the xin metal. Or my promotion will win over my friend (xin metal). Oh dear. Yet to find out. However, Bonus Letter will be given out next tuesday, ex-manager mentioned that i have it, but very little due to the small pool money this year. Consider some wealth lah.

parent's place

Hubby went to Singapore for a night, hence andrea, maid & myself stay over at my parent's place. I thought it was going to be really tough, because andrea still wants milk in the middle of the night.

Andrea doesn't want to sleep although it's nearly 10pm, i cannot stand cos i was very very sleepy already. I handed andrea to the maid and slept soundly after that. I think she cannot sleep without her dad's company. Poor baby. Surprisingly andrea wakes up at 12am, and i said it's not time for milk yet, it's still early. Then she ngek ngek ngek and went back to sleep again, by 5 sth in the morning, she called me again. 5am is quite reasonable i guess, i then make milk for her :)

Clear Blue

Recently i've bought a few clear blue to test out if i'm pregnant. It turn out to be waste of money, it's all because i was not patient enough! The most devastating moment is when i saw it in Watson, it was only selling RM33 + 10% off per box. I have been buying it from Guardian and it cost me RM38 per box. RM5 difference!

Shichida - 1 March 2009

We had two classes last weekend, replacement class for CNY, phew it was really really tired! Andrea did very well on her replacement class. She got 100% correct for all ESP and Memory linking game! I thought it was because i start home practise with her now, unfortunately i think that was her prime time 6pm-7pm. Sunday Class she got 50% correct for ESP and memory linking game.. aww... was quite disappointed ... but i'll continue with my home practise!!

I have also ordered 2 CD, the Japanese songs CD where some of the songs were sing during the class & 1 addition CD. Since andrea refuse to look at the dots flash card, i hope addition CD will help her. I hope they are good, both cost me RM200!

Andrea is still very shy, when sensei ask her question, she would either reply very softly or kept quiet. I hope her confidence level will boost up one day.

Busy Saturday

I've did quite alot of things yesterday
(1) Kizport at 10am
(2) Hatha yoga at 3.15pm
(3) Andrea Shichida Replacement Class at 6pm
(4) Isetan sale at 7pm
Arrived home at 10pm

Timing was quite tight but I'm glad that i've bought my facial thingy from Isetan & also went to kinokuniya to buy andrea a puzzle book!

Memorising

Recently i have bought a complete set of phonics books, 4 books in total. Words are short & easy to read. After reading to Andrea 2 days, she could memorise most of the words that is coming next. My intention is to train her to recognise words, i do not know why she prefer memorising it than "reading" the words on the book.

The book cost Rm5.90 each & it has grammar mistake! When i carefully read the author again, it says she's got her degree or something in US but the book is written and printed in Malaysia! How awful... There is particularly one book that is awfully non-acceptable. I kept it, will throw it away later. This is not the 1st case, the lady bird book (level 1), i bought one set, comes in six books. That one LADY BIRD also has grammar mistake! What is happening... Only one of the book"The enormous turnip", my mum was like .. hm... is this really from the UK? It's really hard to get good books without grammar error these days....

What i'm up to

After 5 days break of not blogging, i've been thinking alot about wealth generation.

To do Day Care business? I've talked to a friend who is a owner of Day Care+Tuition. She has 30 kids now + 5 helper/ teacher. Each kid pay Rm250-350 exclude meal. To my estimation she would earn about Rm11K per month, minus wage+bills+mic = left with <5k. Maximum 5K might as well i sit in office right. Well, if there is owner out there earning Rm10K nett, do let me know. I will re-consider.

I've also invest in shares, wrong timing, it went down and never rise again. I thought feb, strong wood should control earth, but im wrong. Bazi knowledge needs to improve somemore.

Thinking if i shall invest in a house where the developer is offering cash rebate. Im still thinking.. thinking hard... RM500K rebate Rm44K, RM700K rebate RM100K.... I don't know if this is a good buy... my bazi application sucks for shares, i've got no confident to make any judgement.

20 Months Old

Time Really flies! Andrea is 20 Months old today. 

Andrea is developing well, despite of her weight & soft spot that has not closed. Andrea is very alert, not when she is sleepy or moody. She can run VERY fast & likes to play hide and seek. She would laugh very loud when she is very happy or excited. Andrea is able to say full sentence now. Just this afternoon she told me the longest sentence: Amy throw away the doughnut box, daddy buy somemore. Hence i asked hubby to buy doughnut for her when we were at mid valley just now.

Daddy dislike her to scream, i have no idea why she has developed screaming just recently. Maybe she is unhappy? or maybe she feels confuse? or needs attention? I really do not know why. Andrea could scream out of a sudden, then we asked her why you scream.. she would smile at us. Very weird. She still wakes up for night feed. Poor daddy has to make milk for her till today :(

We had dinner at the Loaf just now, andrea could feed herself very well. She could drink her own mushroom soup. It goes the same to yesterday's dinner at a mexican restaurant at USJ. Andrea behave well on the table, well at least didn't ask us to bring her out for a walk or refuse to sit when we were eating. I hope this will not change. 

Royal China Restaurant, Jalan Ampang

We had Family Eow gathering dinner at Royal China yesterday, the food was actually very good. I was surprised! We had 2 big tables and 1 small table for the kids & maids.

Cousin brother was back from US for a short trip. It's a one stone kill two birds event, we had the reunion dinner & grandpa birthday cake cutting ceremony in the restaurant. Everyone was busy catching up, surprisingly i had the time to keh poh too! hehe, andrea enjoy herself there playing with her cousins.

It was a tiring night but somehow i feel fulfilling because i just love reunion, catching up with each other & ask about how other babies are doing.

Painful Front Thigh

After Cay Mee's class my Front Thigh muscles was strained. I expect the recovery period = 1 day, however i still feel the pain as of today! 3 days haven't recover. I had Sunday rest and yesterday went to pilates class, mostly work on the core muscles, hence not so much on the thigh.

I don't know why today my front thigh feels even more heavier than yesterday. I could hardly walk properly with my 3 inch heels. Ouch...

Yesterday i parked up stairs, quite scary because it's very quiet. I still prefer to park basement, i don't know when that Garden basement will re-open.

Shichida - 15 Feb 2009

Yesterday Shichida Centre point called and asked if i have already paid my term 2 fee. HELLO! one month already past, of course i've paid! Do i look like someone who likes to take advantage on these small little things. PLEASE.....

I think the management needs to improve their customer service and also their internal process. If they don't do anything about it, they will loose all their customer if somewhere else offer similar education. I told the silly woman that "yes, i have paid in LFY & they asked me to pay there last term", she said "oh then i check with them, thanks". You seek clarification from your customer last, OK? Do investigation internally first!

Anyway, last week was thaipusam, hence no class. The week before hubby brought andrea there because i booked for facial at that time. Refer to sensei & hubby's comment andrea did well last two weeks.

Today andrea was alright, she doesn't climb up the table anymore. She is more vocal now, able to speak up a little bit more (about 3-4 words), not enough i know but she is abit slow in adapting. Not enough confident i guess, at home or alone with family members she is very confident and very talkative! As usual, she loves all the songs and pay 100% attention to it.

mYoga - as of 15 Feb 2009

I joined on the 4th of February 2009.
4 Feb 2009 - 8 Feb 2009:
Ai Ting Hatha Yoga (1)
Adrian Basic Pilates (1)

9 Feb 2009 - 15 Feb 2009:
Ryu mY Stretch (1)
Adrian Basic Pilates (1)
Yea Hooi Hatha Yoga (1)
Cay Mee Hatha Yoga (1)

I was previously with adrian in YZ, hence i feel more comfortable with his teaching style. For Cay Mee, she really worked on my weak legs. I don't know if i would have much determination with her when my legs are this weak! Need a few more class to judge. However she does gave me constructive advice to fine tune my pose.

Kizsport - 14 Feb 09

Andrea loves to go kizsport, i asked "today is Saturday and is ....", she will reply "Kizsport day"!

Today we arrived slightly early, around 9.40am. We then stayed in the car till 9.45am, when we are up, there are already a few kids playing at the play land. Andrea went to the baby spot where there is only 1 kid, the usual spot she went were conquered by a few kids already.

She tried to climb on 2 different slides & she did it by herself! Well Done! She also went and ride on the donkey & fish to rock front and back. She is enjoying herself there & doesn't want to go to class until 10.05am. I would say she is quite independent now, i've no longer need to chase & scream so much at her. She is quite steady when playing slides or take on any ride.

In class today. she display an independent behaviour. She is able to go and play with the equipment alone without asking me to go with her or stay by her side. She is able to do somersault alone today, teacher told me to bring her to the inclination mat and ask her to head down. Once her head is down she roll forward without help! Very Amazing! and she loves it, she did about 5 times.

ESP & Memory Home practice

Few days ago andrea enjoy playing cards. Hence, i did home practise with her on ESP & Memory. I'm glad that she is enjoying it & about the output... needs time. I would say she is better at memory game, i would need to increase to 5 cards today. hehe....

She also knows how to use scissors & cut papers too. Very amazing, i have tried it before about 2 months back, but she doesn't know yet and i had to hold her hand and cut. This time, after i showed it to her 1 time, she would want to try on her own, however unsuccessful. Then i hold her hand and cut, and she quickly grasp it! She then can cut on her own. I've bought the age 3+ plastic scissors that only can cut paper at kinokuniya book store.

I've never successfully do flash card for andrea, she just doesn't sit still. Sigh...

Weekdays Yoga

Yoga after work was fun but not when going back time. I always stuck in a jam & took more than an hour to reach home :( After joining for a week, i have attended 4 classes. Not bad.. hope my passion for yoga doesn't die off so soon because of the terrible traffic. Maybe i attend 2 classes a day & leave at 8.30 pm? Hm.. will see how it goes. I'm going again today after work.

How's my classes so far? It was OK, i prefer pilates now as i need to strengthen my core, my two split core muscles are not back together yet because of previous pregnancy. How lazy am i & it looks horrible, sis said if i don't do anything about it, it will be split forever and my muscles will be weak! how horrible! Anyway, pilates was good. hatha (1) yoga was not bad too, abit slow, maybe i should join hatha (2) as i already has experience and was YZ member last time! The other class i joined was My Stretch, I thought it's a relaxing class.. stretching mah... but it was equally tiring

After 1st week of yoga, my bowel movement back to normal, i had watery stool on the 1st day, i don't know that is food poisoning or what. But only once so i did not go and see doctor. Headache still mingling, overall mood? Hm... improved i guess.. still feeling miserable at times, but better i guess, cos my mind rest for that hour when i was doing exercise.

No Student

We went to our trial class at gymboree (tropicana city mall), however the lady told us that there are no student for the 4.15pm class! How shocking! Last week another lady told us that 1 week they have 2 level 4 classes, 1 class with 2 kids and the other class with 3 kids. She asked me to go for the Sunday class which has 3 kids where andrea can partner the other kid. Sunday we have shichida hence we choose the Saturday class.

We've arrived on the Saturday afternoon but no class for us, however the lady gave us one complimentary voucher for the gym class this coming weekend, which cost Rm48! Hm... i do not know if this is good because it's taught by an Indian instructor and not many kids for andrea to interact with. Maybe i shall stick back to kizsport..... Hm....

I've spent my money on Myoga for Q1, dun think i wanna fork out another Rm1700 for this gymboree yearly fee! Forget it!

Nothing to do...

Today is a holiday. I've got nothing to do.. how bored and time wasting! We have sent andrea to mum's place, went to Ikea to buy a stool for andrea and I'm back at home. wandering, surfing, sleeping.... Will be going to Myoga later.

Recently I've become very very impatient with myself. I need money, alot of money now to buy myself a comfortable house. Hubby always says that i gave him alot of pressure to start off a business, and i shouldn't do that. If need be, i shall start on my own without bothering him since i have so many wonderful idea that sounds profitable. He prefers to work for his boss and won't want to go for any long term planning.

My own idea, when my both hands are bare, with no special skills to sell nor helpful people to help how far & how big can i earn & do? I need 1 mil to buy a house (i know, it should be provided by man, but when my man can provide? let's say he is earning Rm100K per year, 10 years to 1mil? with inflation and all.... i think to achieve 1mil, need at least 15 years. but but he likes to buy share, let's hope he can double up his capital and i can move to a bigger house without a high tension within 1km)

Currently i had communication breakdown with hubby. He has returned all my money and i shall not mention about business/ investment to him. I need nobleman to help me to get a favourable partner to start off a business or someone to buy me my dream home :)

Kizsport - 7 Feb 09

Today we have one new addition + 2 preview kids. Quite a lot of fun, especially the new addition is a Chinese. I feel somewhat more comfortable to mingle with Chinese, I'm not racist because i know we Chinese mothers have common style of upbringing a child. Those Malay in the class are high class Malays, i think one of them bring their kid to Shichida too.

Andrea look forward to go to kizsport every week. She loves the colourful balls and also the slide. She is reluctant to go into the class at 1st, but when i say " it's TIME" and walk away, luckly she will follow me. hehe... i don't know if she would obey when reaches the terrible two stage!

mYoga

Due to recent weight increased i felt that I'm not leading a healthy life anymore. I sleep too much, eat too much, worry too much, too much of confusion etc..... I need improvement

I've this urge to sign up mYoga at The Gardens Mid Valley. I went for the trial class today & have signed up to their unlimited membership. RM208 per month. It's expensive i know, but if i go twice a week, it would not be as expensive as andrea's kizsport class! Hm.. i hope i can go three times a week at least. Need to slim down and be healthy!

Environment was nice, they have many computers for online. 6 studios with nice lighting's & flooring. Equipments are pretty new and with quality. To compare with Yogazone, they are very much ahead. The whole place is very comfortable

Bing Yin Month

This is my Month. Fire at stem which is lacking - officer luck & Wood at branch - my Money element. Only 4 days i feel much better as i speak on the telecon i feel power (Confident). My seven killing is out! hehe, i dunno if this is psychology or what, what ever it is, i feel great!

Need to start trading too, but the malay lady has let me signed on the wrong paper, hence i need to wait till next week i guess! Argh... dun let my money slip away young lady!

What i have done so far for Bazi?
(1) Done with what i've listed last time
(2) Did some chart decoding on Fivearts & FFF
(3) Reading on Bazi Chinese version. completed 1, now reading another one half way

Gymboree

I've yet to decide if i want to change andrea's gym class from kizsport to Gymboree. I have heard of Gymboree long time ago and has look for their fee on the Internet but to no avail. Heard it was expensive but no one willing to share about their fee.


There is a new branch opened at Tropicana City Mall, the lady incharge explained the fee to me
(1) Trial Class cost RM48
(2) Annual Membership fee RM150
(3) Term Fee Cost RM420/ 12 weeks
(3) Yearly Package Cost RM1780/ 48 weeks


Previously i've opt for Kizport because it's nearer to my house compared to Gymboree bangsar. I would need to go for their trial class at Tropicana City Mall before making a decision to change or not to change.

19 months milestone

(1) Read Charlie and Lola Title - "This is Actually my Party" (she still loves this book & would ask me to read to her every night)
(2) Andrea loves to run about when we put her down & recently she only listen to me, she would come and hold my hand if i ask her to - previously im just talking & screaming at the wall
(3) She loves to imitate & grandma has made 2 lovely pink handkerchief for her to dance - Children Chinese new year MV we bought ages ago
(4) Likes to talk to herself & can talk very clearly
(5) able to scribble & does not reject when i say "come lets do homework"
(6) Favourite food right now is biscuit - all kind
(7) Likes to sing Happy Birthday Song whenever she is free "Happy birthday To you/ Charlie/ mama/ mummy/ yi yi/ daddy/ gong gong/ Lola/ etc" with same line but different tune.
(8) Cuspid teeth is out, about 1/6 can be seen now
(9) Taught her about sharing, she does not want to share when i ask if we can give her friend some biscuit from Disneyland she said "NO". Then i talk to her, she kept quiet and walk away. Next day in class, i gave her the bag and said come give some to your friend, must share the nice things you have, she then slowly, very slowly take out and give it to her little friend at Little Walkers class.
(10) When im back from shopping, she would smile happily at me and say "mummy is coming", i always have to correct her - 'mummy is back'

Tokyo Trip

The preparation was a brief one, we manage to bring the minimum and only brought one big & one small luggage bag. It was quite tough because we need to bring stroller too, in tokyo we need to do alot of walking and going up and down for the underground. Thankfully we survived! and we enjoy the trip too!

(1) 60 years old man gave up his seat for me when we were going to Shinjuku West! I think he needs the seat more than i do, really mm hou yi si. Having a baby with me get these privilege

(2) Andrea enjoy the most - Puroland, she would say "Hello Kitty" over and over again or "Hello Kitty come out". Hubby bought a plush toy for her and she's still hugging it every min now. Sadly she does not enjoy Mickey Mouse as much... but she still look amazed when Mickey and friends dancing

(3) I enjoy the stay very much as we tried new food, as in restaurant food. Previous trip we bought alot of food from the department store (basement), alot of variety but did not get to enjoy the eating environment. This trip is very relaxing, we have our time for resting, shopping, eating without rushed. Everything goes smoothly according to our plan.

(4) Andrea was having abit of flu and fever on our 2nd last day in tokyo. Fed her paracetamol, luckily it does helped. Right now she is almost recover.

We have not regretted to bring andrea & would definitely to have another family trip!

Another fulfilling day

Early in the morning, hubby and I send andrea to mum's house as usual. We then set off to do our things, Never ending task, list can go on and on.....
(1) Open Maybank Share trading account. They are having promotion, only 0.1% handling charge
(2) Watched 2 movies at mid valley, have not watch any movies since 6 months ago
(3) Buy glass water container for home
(4) Buy Andrea's sleep wear & house wear
(5) Go to shins, buy my shampoo and curl leave in conditional

Wanted to do facial but was all fully booked. I still have another 2 sessions of origin, but didn't want to go there as the beautician there did not clean my pimples thoroughly. Will try 1 utama Dermalogica tomorrow.

Year of Ox

Happy Chinese New Year & Gong Xi Fa Cai!

We have just touched down yesterday night at 8pm. I took the whole week off and today was very fruitful, Me & hubby has done the following in 1 day!
(1) Change our 10 year old touch and go card. The new card is much slimmer than the old one
(2) Repair my Omega, cost me a bomb to get it fixed! Have to wait 6-8 weeks for collection
(3) Collect Isetan Voucher, renew Istan card & get Locitane new membership card
(4) Bring andrea to Dr. Soh (she was not very well - flu, fever & vomit)
(5) Collect rental

It's a tiring day, but was happy that i did not sleep away my day. Andrea slim down alot after the trip, it's because she never had proper food, only snack on what we were eating & i think the weather is too cold for her. Today she did not finish her rice during lunch and dinner, hope tomorrow she will get used to it and finish it. Need more time for her to tune back to her old routine.

Holiday!

When i told my friend i'm going to Tokyo, Most of them replied "AGAIN?"

Well, in life there are many types of person. Majority would like to explore countries that they have never been, even they have been there for less than an hour/ half a day, they would proudly tell people that i have been there! How proud right? They may have visited more than half of the countries on this globe! They have their foot imprint there.... Question, what they have gain from there? A picture of their famous sculpture? or whatever that makes them happy & satisfied.

Minority of the people, like me... would go to the same country over and over again. We like familiarity & each visit we will enjoy different type of things. 1st visit usually are rushed and feeling confused & hope to see more things than in our planned itinerary (because we do not know what is the best there, we tried more bad stuff than the good stuff on 1st visit - yes homework from Internet helped but u do really need to try it yourself to judge). 2nd visit we will only go to good places for food and shopping & explore some other things we have missed last visit. With the familiarity of that place, i would feel more satisfied/ happy & get to really enjoy that place with a peaceful heart.

5 min suggestion

I have been worried about andrea's health & her sleep pattern. Hence, I've tried 5 min suggestion again the night before, she actually slept thru the night. Then hubby was saying because the temperature of the room is right, hence she can sleep thru the night. I want to prove him wrong, thus was abit lazy yesterday night and watched TVB series all night. Andrea wakes up 2-3 times crying, 1 time for milk, 2 times just cry for her dad.

I do not feel much support from hubby all these while & sometimes i felt that he took me for granted (never appreciate whatever i have done & thought it's my job to do it). It might because my Direct Officer is weak (but 2009 DO is clashed out, hope it will be better). I do not have much emotional/ spiritual support from him as he has different view in religion or i should say spiritual believe. I may be too dependant since im young, hence without this support i do not think i can go very far with someone that suppose to live with me till i die. The only dependant now is Andrea... hope she could grow up healthily & have the same believe as me.

Shichida - 18 Jan 2009

Class as usual, ESP - sometimes correct sometimes incorrect. I think she needs more concentration for this, however at 18 going to be 19 months, she can't really concentrate for long. I think she does more guessing than really 'feel' the correct answer!

I've gotten the lyrics, however i need more time to memorize! I hope andrea is able to sing like the other kid in class. Andrea now has homework from shichida where she suppose to complete one sheet per day. I've bought crayola magic colour pen for her to do dots, i have no idea how a 2 year old kid can draw small circle, hence i bought that to ask her to just dot on the paper.

While i was at kinokuniya, I was very surprise that they sell Kumon work book for age 2 and up. How different are these from the kumon centre we have in KL? I have bought all 8 books, very kiasu i know, but they were actually having 20% off! Hence i took it all! The quality is really good, i have started off with 'folding' book, andrea likes it! It's actually similar to shichida work sheets, here are the difference: shichida - black & white (free), Kumon - very colourful & printed on quality paper (RM20+ per book).

Joey Yap Talk

It was fun as usual, when he talks about face reading it can actually makes me laugh out loud! I enjoy all of his talk, remember my previous post on my face reading class with him, he regulate my period, muahhaha, actually he relieved the stress inside me and my menstrual went back to normal!

I went there with mum & kim joined us later. What i've got out of the talk? Flying Star feng shui matter & improve luck for general ppl. As i have some knowledge in bazi, it may not be applicable for ALL, as some animal sign may clashed in your chart hence general feng shui is quite dangerous. However, joey went abit deeper to say that, this is good for all except for certain animal sign. My advise is that you really need a bazi foundation to see the big picture. Feng Shui, Bazi or any Chinese metaphysics they are linked to form a big picture.

What am i going to do with what i've learnt during the talk? Nothing.... absolutely nothing, as i've roughly know about my house direction, although it's not the best but thank god that it's not the worst, hence i'll just leave it for Year 2009.

One Day Luck

I feel energy today (in the morning when i opened my eye), i don't know why. I'm very lucky today, i don't know why (but i know now!). I have Fu Yin (heaven & Earth Repeat) today with my Year Pillar. Well, a happy day for me dispite the whole awful month i have awaiting me.

I have planned to go for Mamypoko warehouse sale today which is near my office (on the G floor), but was afraid that i may not be getting anything because of the crowd. Well, i tell myself because of savings, i need to try. I leave my desk at 10.45am (it start at 11am), to my surprise there are many ppl standing infront of the door, waiting for it to open. i think about 30-40 ppl! Really crazy!! I Squeeze to the side, wanting to see the price list sticking on the glass, after that 10.55am the door is open, i was lucky because i was quite near to the door, i was pushed inside and there... i dunno where to go, the table is very long, so once again i squeeze myself to the side, i manage to stand on the second row. wow! i dunno how i did that, the auntie infront of me bought RM800 of Mamypoko! after her, it's my turn. In total i only spent 30 min from the time i left my desk, to G, to my car, back to my desk! That was really fast and smooth!

Today i had 3 person talking to me, friendly talk ... it seems that i'm more approachable too. Wow!

Shichida - 11 Jan 09

Andrea enjoy all the activities they have & i'm eager to have their songs, as in MP3 or CD. It feels great to sing along with sensei and can be able to sing it at home for andrea. 2 year old milestone is to sing simple song, hope andrea can sing some songs when she reach 2. Sensei said songs were not sold on CD, she suggested that i get the lyrics from the front desk. I've gotten it, but it's not complete, cos i dind't know there are lyrics available. I've missed my term 1 songs, will get it this week.

It amaze me that she can count the abacus, 1 to 10, well not whole 1 to 10, she misses some numbers in between but still surprise me! didn't know she can count, at home at most she say 1, 2, 3... didn't know she can say 4,6,9,10! wow! She help her classmates to count too.. my eye open so wide when i hear her in class!

What Happen

Things has been very bad lately. 2009 - Ji Chou, January - Yi Chou. There are too many Chou clashing my poor goat & these are also bullying punishment (with my 10 years luck cycle makes it complete, xu, wei, chou - shite!). I have been bullied in the office and the worst thing is im not facing my favourable direction! My oh my, what am i going to do?

I thought the clashing is good, cos my direct officer released, but somehow i am still stranded in the same position/ department, my Boss changed! double shite! This suppose to be indicating a job change not boss change!! well, it means the same thing, but i was hoping for a job change!

This month yi also combine away myself and form metal, i have too much metal in my chart and it's no good. Off balance man. Strong self lead to strong opinion & very self centred.. this is why im feeling shite!

Destiny please don't control me... Nam Myo Ho Ren Ge Kyo....

Feb 4 onwards should be good. Keep my finger crossed!

Ipoh Trip

Early in the morning, andrea was very excited to go to Kizsport. She behaved very well and we set off at 9.15 to Kizsport. Andrea refuse to sleep on our way there, luckly she was not all cranky in class. Today she is able to enjoy herself more, maybe daddy is there and she feels more comfortable or could it be she already adapt to the place once more very quickly.

After the class we went straight home for lunch & headed to Ipoh at 1pm. We went to mum's place 1st, andrea was initially very shy and wanted to cry when uncle & auntie wanted to hold her. After the magic pink doughnut given to her, she is very friendly to everyone. Amazing! She had great fun with her cousin Jane, who's 1 month younger than her. Later we went to dad's place, and she was fine, no crying and had her dinner there. Good girl.

It was Grandma's birthday, uncle from Singapore and Auntie from KL all came for the birthday dinner. We left at 10pm that night and arrived around 12am. It was a tiring day but i'm happy to see Andrea's social skills improved & is more vocal than both of her cousin.

Sleep Pattern

Andrea & Hubby has moved to study room, i'm sleeping all alone in my room. These are the reason:
(a) Andrea was sick - Coughing & Phlegm
(b) hence, Cannot sleep in Air con
(c) Too tired of andrea's night feed

Although my bedroom and study room is connected, i do not feel the warmth that we used to have when we 3 of us sleep in the room. Due to the room shape and size, the aircon is located to be directly blowing at andrea's bed, i think this is why she got cold at 1st then move on to cough and phlegm. When can i get a decent room that i'll feel comfortable in?

Beside this, stressed from work makes me feel depress too. I hope tomorrow trip to ipoh would cheer me up alittle.

LW - 3 Jan 09

I think Kizsport is not doing very well, in terms of keeping their old customers. Well, i think they have enough new customers this is why they never reply or act on my suggestion. I say this because surprisingly, there is NONE of andrea's classmate were in the class, all cabut (2 promoted to LR class). Don't be so mean, i think 4 cabut... we have around 6-7 in a class last year.

3 Jan was Andrea's 1st class for 2009, it was not so fun because andrea starts starring at those kids (again). I hope she could enjoy herself next week. We only have 4 babies, including andrea in the class. Small class but all the parents attended with the kid, we have 7 adults and 4 babies! Honestly i dun like this situation. too many adults!! dads are sitting everywhere, pls sit somewhere else. those equipments are not sofas!

Shichida - 4 Jan 09

Our new sensei named Eiza, she is very pleasant looking (i think she has peach blossom star in her bazi chart) & Patient. Overall I'm satisfied with her on our 1st day.

BU Branch has more classes & the air con is really cold. BU Branch classrooms are not as high tech as KL branch. KL branch has LCD screen & apple notebook but BU branch only has a radio. I wonder why they can't have apple notebook & LCD screen for all their branches. I do enjoy looking at the LCD screen.

The mother beside me is very irritating, she allow her sick baby to come to class & was coughing through out the class. Very inconsiderate. Andrea have just recovered from coughing, if she started to cough again, I'm gonna curse that mother! It's sad to see ppl with money but lack of water in their natal chart. Really Id**t.

Charlie & Lola

Andrea's favourite movie's now Charlie & Lola, hence we have bought her 2 Charlie & Lola books from kinokuniya. It was expensive, but well, she could actually hug them to sleep, so i guess it's all worth it! She'll bring her book every night (3 nights in a row now) to ask me to read for her (that's really even more amazing, usually i need to drag her & sit on my lap to read & she would run away half way reading).

I have brought high 5 for her, but she doesn't like it. Maybe later.

She is able to say 5 words in a sentence again in my car just now - Mummy car got McDonald's sticker. It really suprise me! Well Done!

Happy New Year!!

New Year Resolution:
(1) Yearly budget burst again for 2008. Be more careful in 2009 spending - must not burst forecast expense again.
(2) Shall not produce more negative metal emotion i.e non-sociable, controlling, opinionated, complaining, defensive, merciless, stormy, nervous, insecure, complicated.
(3) Look out for wealth generation opportunity

Catching Up

Sadly, i do not have (make) time for face reading, the last attempt was to remember the age position on the face. I think i need more time for this, my maid wasn't very helpful in terms of taking care of andrea, she prefer to clean the house than looking after andrea. Hence, although im at home but i don't have time for reading. I was grateful that last week i had a weekend to myself. I slept over at mum's for 3 nights and i've completed 2 Bazi books!

What i need to do for bazi this round?
(1) Memorize the 10 gods attributes (in general)
(2) Memorize the emotions related to 5 elements, with this i can advise what behaviour/ attitude a person shall adopt
(3) Memorize health organs related to 5 elements
Must complete this b4 i go to Japan for Holiday!

Peaceful Weekend

I had a wonderful long weekend. All of us stayed at my parent's place for the weekend, hubby had planned to touch up the house before CNY. 1 day for the renovation worker to do the house, another 2 days for hubby to paint the house. It was all hubby's hard work, keke, me and andrea stayed at grandma's while daddy tidy up the house.

I have not done much actually. I've completed 2 bazi book (joey & guan leong), decoded some charts (requested by kim), watch TVB series (3 episode), went for eye checkup & did some shopping (KLCC & robinson).

Oh, i've went to my secondary cum uni friend's wedding, it was at the Noble Banquet. The dishes are all excellent, of all the weddings i've been, i would rate it as number 2. Number 1 was westin hotel. This Noble Banquet is as good as hotel presentation. The best restaurant wedding that i've ever been to.

Shichida - Dec 08

I have not enter any entry for December class. OK, for December we only have 3 classes, i missed 1 because i was away for face reading class. Just got to know from last week that sensei Intan is on MC (chicken Pox), another sensei took over the class & also inform us that sensei Intan has resigned (become housewife after married). Well, not much impact to me as I'm changing to Centre Point anyway. Hope i can have a better sensei this time...

Last class the new sensei was soft spoken & i can feel that she has more patient towards children. She doesn't gave me the feeling of rushing for time & likes to talk to children. Next term will start in January, i have 1 week rest... keke... bazi bazi, face reading face reading

Term 1 has ended, what do i gain? andrea seems to have alot of improvement in language, coordination & memory. I do not know if this is because of shichida. Well, whatever it is, i enjoy the Japanese songs in class.. keke.. i have bought a Japanese children song from Kinokuniya yesterday. It was by Kumon, i've asked the staff to look for shichida songs, he said don't have, hence i've got the one and only CD + flashcard for andrea use. Sad to say that andrea do not like it! Well, maybe it takes time .....

Sick Baby

My Poor Baby is sick again, she had terrible running nose & coughing. She can't consume her milk, she will vomit all out after drinking it. Poor Hubby also didn't have enough sleep yesterday night, although myself do wake up to andrea's every cough, but i don't go to her... unless she sounded like vomiting. Hubby stay by her side until she sleeps & would run to her if she makes noise.

I do not know what happen to andrea, she makes me feel extremely tired. She wakes up EVERY night (1-3 times a night), this really pisses me off... Im thinking to try for another child, but with this routine i guess my body would not be strong to conceive one. I've got some serious symptom of dunno what sickness - my vision becomes blurred and i couldn't see the side of my usual vision (can only view 60 degrees only), this really scares me to death, i thought i'm going blind. It took me 6 hours to recover & since then my vision always not sharp but still can see. Lately i always has minor headache (feel like floating in the air), i do not know if all these are linked, i feel so frail & no matter how much sleep i get i still feel weak. I do not know with this kind of condition i would conceive any baby now.

Hubby said Im lacking of exercise, hence i do simple stretching at home. It does not really help. I think it's time to let andrea sleep with the maid. I need uninterrupted sleep to restore my health.

18 Months Old

Today Andrea turn 18 Months. Time flies... and i missed the small baby i used to cuddle in my arm. I've enjoy every moment to be with her & see so many improvements since she was born, i feel Happy & proud with her progress.

10. Will walk to my bed if she wakes up in the middle of the night

2008 Achievement

We have heard many of New Year Resolutions, to me achievement is more important than resolutions. My only promise to myself in this life has only 1, Top priority - RICH

So what i have done thus far in 2008? it has been about 3 years plus, since I've graduated (August 2004). I've not been very lucky with money since I've graduated, i've checked my Bazi, my wealth luck will only come/ start at age 45 (That's very late to become rich! well, next life!) Although my luck is not that good, but i strive for the best i can have in life, i will never believe 33% fate will bring me down. Thru knowledge and action, i can do better than what it has destined.

2008
1.Successfully breastfeed andrea till march 08
2.High pay job till April 08. This is due to the unhappiness & global financial crisis, i have returned to IBM. Im luckly, my ex-company is cutting people.
3.Bought a Studio and has a rent of 10% yield (was lucky because hubby has the connection)
4.Handling ASEAN role - Business Controls, Client Satisfaction & Productivity Tools. Tidy up the process, however management in sales team are not very focus (this causes unhappiness too)
5.Attended Bazi & Mian Xiang (hope it will help me in future undertakings)
6.Give the best to Andrea - Kidsport & Shichida.

Sticker

Andrea loves sticker. It started when she was playing with an old sticker album that was belong to my brother, she would remove the sticker and stick it elsewhere. I have then bought a sticker book for her & some sticker from ELC. I would give her 2 pieces every night & she will stick on the book & learn from them. castle, crocodile, crayon, truck, boat, clock, drum & many more.

Since the Sticker book is full now, i have bought another sticker book for her today. I have diverse the sticker to types of balls, party accessories, girls accessories & things you found at school. My initial intention of buying her sticker was not because of education, but since she loves it and gain knowledge from sticker (Hubby was impressed with things andrea knows & agree that this is one way of learning), i have started to explore more sticker for her.

Annual Leave

I took my last day of annual leave today. Was not feeling too good yesterday + today as well, hope tomorrow will be better. What i have done today....
(1) Went to Nora to had my back massage, to confirm my epidural spot is not block. Had a good chat there & is happy to find out that she's not only do massage for pregnant lady or post delivery massage, she does normal massage too. I would say she did better than those expensive Balinese massage i went before.
(2) Watched all 3 Joey Yap DVD - bazi workshop.
(3) Going to read up my face reading notes

I had this feeling where my soul is floating, yesterday + today. Wondering what is happening to me. I don't know if it's the comprehensive face reading class + menstrual (day 2 & 3 during face reading class) + no rest for the weekend + eye infection during day 2 & 3 face reading class. All these negative things all come together... i wonder why!! My vision now is not very sharp too!

will take a rest after this.... hope i will feel better by tomorrow.

Mian Xiang module 1&2

Comprehensive Face Reading 1 & 2. Overall the course was informative & Joey Yap is a humerus guy. My menstrual which was late for a week plus came on the second day on my class. This shows that this course releases all my stress at work. One stone kill two birds! not a bad investment after all.

Like Bazi, i can't really comment how useful is this course to me, cos all Chinese metaphysics we need practise & study. Overall the class was fun, lots of discussions & application was taught & experiment was done on course mates. I had fun, because many of my Bazi friend attended this and we made fun of each other's face.

I will need to clean up & tidy up my notes. I give myself 2 weeks to do it, cos I'll be busy with testing now for Q4. I'm feeling quite exhausted right now as too many information in my head & i need to rest early. Night!

Hair Cut

Due to the stress and bad luck that i have recently, i suspect it's my ugly hair that makes my mood imbalance. Michael Teh, my beloved hair stylist since form 2 has turn out to be not so careful with my hair few years back. I gave him chance for almost 3 years now, finally I've made up my mind to change a new hair stylist 3 months ago.

Michael was the one who bring back my confidence (mum used to bring me to auntie hair stylist and she would gave me an auntie hair style after that. i looked so OLD!), because my scalp shape is squarish, not many people knows how to cut. Beside making my Hair look good, he asked if i could be his model for his shop poster (i didn't agree but still feel good, cos someone thinks I'm pretty! Ha!), he help to beautify my thick eyebrow (this is the most important thing in my life, and I'm very thankful that he had help and taught me about brow) & I've learn alot from him (as i always spy on him, when he cut my hair and other customer's hair). I gain 20% of his skills, i could cut my sister hair (when she was in the UK, dun think she would let me cut her hair now) & Andrea's hair. I do appreciate all that he has done, but i think he needs to move on to earn more money for his children's education, I shall go elsewhere to find my hair satisfaction now.

Recently, I have found someone comparatively good & price almost the same as Michael. If you ask me, Sunny is not as brave as Michael, he's a play safe type of person, I've only seen him twice, can't comment much. However, he had corrected my curls yesterday & I feel much happier with the new curls. Hope good luck will come back to me right away!

Oh I saw joey yap yesterday, when i was on my way to Shunji, he's waiting for someone at his office stairs. Well, tomorrow I'm going to see him in person again! Heh, I've signed up for Face Reading with him ... Hope it's good

Working Pants

I've bought 2 working pants from Zara yesterday. Surprisingly the price has reduced to RM169 per pair. I dunno if this is a sudden decrease or everything from china now, that's why it's cheap. Hm... i have not buy any zara pants for 2 years now, when i was pregnant last year i only wore dorothy perkins pants. 80% of my working pants are from zara, the only brand that fits my big butt... winter season working pants are better (my own preference), as the materials are thicker, it has some weight on the pants that makes me looks more stable and not so fat (illusion i know).

Mum helped me to alter my pants length, i still have my hemming strip which are from the UK that was bought back in year 2004. I have tried searching for it in KL, but couldn't find it, the closest i can find are from Ikea, which is for curtains use. The width is thicker, but i think it should be the same. It's really useful, mum and sister use it as well, it's really easy.. no need to sew, you only need to measure, cut & iron! How easy! Save for the alteration cost!

Stress me Out

It has been almost a week that i did not have a good night sleep nor rest. I fell asleep during facial last Saturday and i could hear myself snores! How embarrassing...

It all started last Monday, SJ (STG manager) pull me into this discussion where CSO is involved. CSO concern is that we do not have our credit check done before PO comes in, hence they want to validate our process by asking us to show them evidence. First of all, SJ shouldn't have asked me in if he doesn't want me to help, i felt freaking stupid where it seems only myself is worried of the break down process. SJ said, if CSO wants to find fault on us, let it be, he wouldn't want to hide. Well, then don't pull me in the FIRST PLACE! IDIOT! This has lasted for 4 days, back and forth of emails from CSO and also some argument thru phone with CSO manager. I felt like an idiot myself.

My period is late for a week now, i'm feeling extremely stressful, emotionally exhausted. Andrea vomited again for 2 nights, i've brought her to doctor yesterday and it doesn't seems better at night, her throat still hurts i think. It's because hubby also fell sick, i have to take care of andrea all by myself for 2 nights, it really drains all my energy away. I did not have good sleep since 2 months ago as andrea keep on waking for night milk :( I feel extremely tired, feel like collapsing...

Muzzy

Mum had bought the Muzzy collection for andrea, it doesn't come cheap. RM1800 per set! How on earth the education set is so expensive now??!! When we were young, mum bought Muzzy in gondoland and Muzzy come back for three of us, i think it helped my 2 younger sister more as they were younger that time, my brain stop growing after age 6 by the way. My two younger sister was a big fan of Muzzy & their work book was fun and colourful. This time, the set comes in DVD & lots of free story book (not muzzy, but disney story books) & groiler education learning set. Andrea is still very young right now to do their work book & also play with the learning set by groiler, but i would say it's a good tool to help children learn when they are at 3 year old.

Andrea is afraid of Muzzy and Covax, she would cry when these two appear! Ahh.. hope she will grow out of it soon, if not really waste my mum money! kekke... Andrea picks up words very fast, i tried to calm her when Muzzy is out, like when muzzy is eating the clock, i say "muzzy favourite food is clock, he can eat lots of clocks". One day later, i asked: "what muzzy likes to eat?" andrea would say "Clock!". Memory not bad...

Yesterday Andrea could say the longest sentence :"Go home eat fish oil", wow... 5 words in a sentence, loud and clear! I'm so proud of her!

Winter Clothing

We have bought a few winter clothing for Andrea. They are all very cute and pretty....

(1) White trench coat from baby zara
(2) 2 thick pantyhose from Mother Care
(3) long sleeve skirt from baby Gap
(4) a few long sleeve top from baby zara
(5) glove, hat & scarf from baby zara

Andrea molar is out, both at the bottom. It looks weird because the canines is not out. I wonder if this is normal.
