Ahhh.....Niceeeeeeeeeeeee......

Piang, kena woken up by Creamie & Nugget at 7.30am today! FAINT! I actually K.O-ed at abt 10.30pm last nite.... must be too much fun swimming!

Since wakey so early (the earliest by far since last week!), I decided to go for a real swim & mayb a jog....
I cycled my new bike (decided on the name: FOREST!) to TP.

Swam alittle... probably abt 25laps... broken down to 1 lap fast+1 lap recovery sets...
Feeling really tired n lethargic... went for a jog.... really struggled thru the distance... must be my stamina back to square one liao! Haiz... it's painful thinking abt it!

I struggled for the 8km thruout... giving up was always on my mind! Really! Hey, give me a break lah! I am only HUMAN - I DO wanna give up sometimes.. esp when I am running (cos I HATE running) & alone (cos I HATE RUNNING, ESP ALONE!)...

Anyway, finished the distance... nuaz at the pool for a while before cycling back home... by then it was only abt 1pm! COOL! I have so much time to do my stuff!!

Lunch! Supa Hungry cos I didnt even had any breakfast before I headed out!

Preserved Olive Vege,
Fried Shallots,
Fried WhiteFish!


Not forgetting the Fermented BeanCurb!


This is my type of Lunch...
Simple & very teoChew!


Must be these brands then niceeee!!


----
After lunch, I wanna read my papers!
So I decided to pluck some
Mint Leaves for tea! 1st try!


Throw the whole lot into my Goofy mug!


Tea Bag & Boiling Hot Water!
Viola!


Ahhh.....Niceeeeeeeeeeeee......

Family Day @Jurong Swimming Complex!

We promised the kids that we will go Jurong Swimming Complex today... according to my sis-in-law, my little Princess Glenda has been counting down the days! & She is not even gd in counting yet! She will ask her mother everyday... "MUmmy, tuesday we go swimming yah?! YAY! Erm... how many more days?!"

So cute right!? Children!
Papa was equally excited... he asked me what time Bro Xiong is coming to pick us up.... since like... 3pm yest! Must have asked me at least 4 times! OMG!



The kids couldnt wait!!
Just dashed in straight!




Looks scary lah! So many twists!


Little Rascal!


Naval Diver in the making?!


AhGong's darling Girl!


My precious Princess!


Apples of my eye!


Singapore's Next Top Model!





Little Diver in the making!




Papa Baking in the SUN!




Bro Xiong's little adventure!




Our little Adventure
on a Lazy Afternoon!



We didnt bring Xiong's helper,Natty, today as Sis-in-Law is abt to "pop" the baby anytime now... so Xiong was on STandby mode also!

Since I was the only female who swam, naturally I will have to be the one to bathe my princess Glenda...ok... it was kinda weird for me... cos I have lost touch with such chores... my baby cousin girl is all grown up & a lady of 18yrs old liao! Since long time ago, I never really have to bathe for any1 (other than my Creamie n Nugget)!! Abit freaked out, but I think I contained myself well! I just brot her to the toilet & we bathed together... yes... together....means I may have to answer some REALLy Weird questions if princess Glenda is in the curious mood...

Everything when ok until when she asked:  "Kuku, why you so BIG?!"
OMG! The QUESTIONS are coming... fully loaded & high detonation power!
"Ermmm.... BIG?! *BIG Meh?!* Erm.... cos cos.... Kuku is older than u?!"
"Kuku, how old are u then!?"
"Oh... kuku is much older than u! Kuku is 30yrs old already!"
"WOW!!! Kuku! U are so OLD!! *Yes, thank you very much for reminding me...bleah* Erm.. what is THIRTY?!"
*FAINT* I pretended that I cant hear the question!

"Kuku, then how LONG are u?!"
LONG?! "What do u mean darling?!"
She pointed my head, then to the showerhead that my head kept bumming into...
"Oh! U mean HOW TALL AM I is it?! Oh..Kuku is very TALL!"
"Oh, Kuku is BIG & TALL, that's why ur head always HIT!!"
Phew... now then I know what she means by BIG?! *FAINT!*

Actually, the bathe went quite ok... motherly instincts just kicks in, we had a full body wash & she very cute lah, ask if she could use my facial foam also! I told her that she can use when she is BIG & TALL like me! She just happily shriek :"OKIE!!!"

Suddenly I feel like I can and wanna be a mother too! OMG! Did my biological clock just went off?!
*SLAPSLAP* Back to reality!
I figured until i know how to answer this question, I am not ready to be a mother!
"Mummy, where did babies come from?!"
-----
After running around so much! We were famished! We headed for Teban Gardens for the famous XO Fish Head Soup!

Woww! Really yummy lah! Can really taste the XO in the soup! Supa Cool lah!
----
The kids were visibly tired, even my Papa fell asleep in the car during the ride back! We dropped off the Kids n the DaBao dinner at Xiong's hse before we decided to go IKEA Tampines to shop for some curtains.

New baby's coming, new decor... the cot's ready & everything is rite n ripe now... The anticipation is killing me! At the Fish soup place, the helper commented that Prince Garren looks just like me!?! Really?! I was alittle happy & excited to hear that!?! I had always tot that Princess Glenda looked alittle like me cos my sis-in-law told me so & even my Papa said her Princess Tantrums are like mine when I was a kiddo! Wuahahah!

To have a little Jnr look or behave like me is somewhat scary, yet exciting...
Oh no... biological clock threatening to go off again! *FAINT!*
I am already a Single Mother of two Kitties.... enough Motherhood experience for now.... kekek!

Time to Wakey!

Today was just a simple day....

impromptu decided to watch movie *NOT WITHOUT YOU* 不能没有你* No Puedo Vivir Sin Ti*

Read the reviews.... wanna watch it with some1 who can appreciate such "Cold Movie /冷门" kinda movie.... not every1 likey such! But I was pretty such Starry would like it! When I told her the title, she immediately could tell me abt the plot - means, she knows the existence of the movie which is a confirmation liao!

So we went to The Cathy & got the tickets for the 2pm show... queue was so long, only managed to get the tickets at 1.55pm! Wau! 1st time I so rush buy tickets... on a Sunday afternoon smmore!

Nicee.... Starry wept.... I managed to tahan....
*NOT WITHOUT YOU*
*不能没有你*
*No Puedo Vivir Sin Ti*






-----
I was complaining to Starry that I suddenly have a crave for chocolates.... everytime I am outside, but I only buy them, bring them back home... once at home - I always forget to eat them! & I lotsa at home now! Wuahah! She said she can spare me 1! I was rather taken aback.... ONE?! Why only 1?! She is not really that kinda that will bring chocolate out like pple who bring Mint sweet in their bags for emergency.... were the chocolates meant for some1 else? sm1 special? So she could only spare me one!?!

Then she surprised me by
whipping out from her Big Red LongChamp bag!
THIS...
Awww......


So sweet of Starry ....
It's hard not to smile when the bear is so sweet!
She specially choose this rembing that I have the GdLuck bear already!
Also cos this bear got Rainbows n Stars on his tummy! Kekek!


Really made my day!


*Last nite I finally confessed to her that I havent been feeling very +ve for the past 2-3 days & she just nonchalantly replied that :"Yah, I know ah!"

She said that she could sense!?! could it really be our telepathy?

Knowing me, she left me "alone" to sort out my thoughts were patiently waiting for me to be ready to share with her my worries & my new found solutions... We chatted for like 4hrs on the phone last nite & i just bamble on non stop.... Wow.... feels so much better after telling her!

*Sowie dearie, I was alittle shocked by the sweet gesture.... not used to be treated like this...
Was a little overwhelmed... with joy & was really touched... duno what to say...
Sowie if I was a dumby for a while....was abit shy lah! =P

Thank you Thank you.......... *Pat*pat*

-----
Went for Kona's lessons.... today's lesson was on tricks!
Shake hand, Roll over, Walk on, Play Dead etc.... quite cool! But I also realised that not easy to teach a hyeractive JackRussellTerrier (JRT)! They are so active by nature & it's just against their normal self to play Dead for eg! Hahah!

Was rather fun! Kona was a nice dog that will listen to any1's command... not just Daddy A... Auntie QQ, Auntie Soya, Uncle Toby too... I brought her thru the obstacles a few times.... there were 4 hurdles for her to jump "OVER", 1 ramp for her to climb "UP", & 1 tunnel at the end for her to go "THRU". Of cos the usual "SIT", "STAY" , "DOWN". I imagine that I have a dog of my own.... how nice would that be! =D Kona is a rather excitable dog... she will roll on her back & beg for a belly rubba.... like my Cookie.... so sweet! =D
------

Mr.A hasnt quite been the Mr.A I thought I know... just something is different... the feeeling.... somehow... he seemed more distant.... I feel like we are drifting...

I think it's abt time to wake up!
some guys are just not meant to be... MINE!

For eg..
Hunky Jacob Black


Or... Sensual Johnny Depp?!


Definitely....
Sexy n Sensual
Takeshi Kaneshiro....


To be sure I used my adjectives correctly...



Confirm.... I like Sensual men... sensual is goood.... oh, so very gooood.... Kekek! =D

But Sensual men are for eye candy... they are not to be owned!
Ok, time to wake up! =D

Tmr will be better!

Angel's Xmas Gathering!

Woke up at 9am & the 1st time I did was to go marketing! I feel very much like an auntie! Kekek!

Bot a slightly obese size Cheeky Chicky n some root vege... since brussel sprouts were not available, I was searching for some greens & chanced upon the asparagus! Yummy choice cos everyone eats asparagues but not everyone likes brusselsprouts!

Decided also to try to use the rotating rod to "suntan" Cheeky! Alas, since Cheeky is slight on the chubby side, & the butterfly wings kept flapping... everytime the rod turns, the wings open up! Plus, it kept pushing the vege outa the tray!

From my previous experience, the sequence of cooking such be such!
Cheeky tog with Baby Potato n Carrots
Just 15mins before ready, pop in the Pumpkin n Asparagus!
Plus, this time round I mixed the seasoning all properly before I massage onto Cheeky n the vege!
Also added 1 more lemon tog with the vege for a tangy lemony taste!

Results?
Pls judge for yourself!


it's our annual potluck Xmas gathering!

Who love me just the way I am... & the way I can never be... pple who....well... just appreciate me! I am finding hard to meet pple like these....

actually I havent been in my prettiest mood... even a nice Green Xmas pressie for myself only managed to cheer me up for...like 1 nite? I am facing uncertainties.... at the crossroads.... I ask myself what is friendship all abt.... what is love all abt... what can I do to make more money... etc. etc.

I feel used... I am feeling rather lonely... I feel like i am very alone... haiz...
I feel like cut all ties... from these pple... from pple who made me upset... from pple who duno what's gd for them... from pple who take me for granted...
