Hi babe,

Did you get much sleep last night?

I slept pretty well last night but had to wake up at 8am so not really enough time. Today was pretty much bang on doing the show stuff at the show floor.

Now I’m back in the house. We’re too tired so ordering some pizza and awaiting for them to arrive.

Tomorrow will be a full day at the show setting up as well but we’re going to take lunch off at TGI Fridays.

Food is cheap here. We had a foot long Subway for $5 which is pretty good. I had the “Pastrami Piled High” which is pretty awesome. And when you get the lot with the salad in the sub (*they call it “the works” here”), they even put in jalapenos which pretty good.

We’ll be moving house tomorrow to the new place at Irish Sea Ave which is closer to the convention centre.

Sorry if this email is a bit fragmented. I’m not in a condition to think very well. I miss you lots and look forward to seeing you when I get back. Please take care of yourself and Baby. Eat nutritious food and don’t stress yourself out too much ok?

Ruff,
K

And I replied as follows:

Hi darling,

I think I had some sleep last night but still woke up to pee.

Darling, I think Baby is responding to you when I put the receiver on my tummy. Usually after you hang up, he will be moving around a lot. And the kicks are getting stronger and I am confident you will feel it when you come back. Its really exciting because if he is really responding to you, it means he recognises your voice. Its pretty cool.

As you asked me to go healthy and eat nutritious food, I want to tell u that I have been eating Mee Sua for the last 2 days. Mee sua with chicken, enoki mushroom, mushroom and caixin. Its usually a big bowl but at about 10+pm, I get hungry again. Hahaa.

Been eating a lot since yesterday because Boss’s birthday is today and he brought cake and we had afternoon tea. I have been eating raisin toast with butter for the last 2 days for breakfast and today, I decided I should have some bacon and eggs mac muffin from maccas. Hahaaa… then in between the day, I had fruits and all.

I just came back from work, sitting at my table thinking about what to eat for dinner. Don’t feel hungry because one of the kids baked Boss a chocolate cake and I had a big slice at 4.45pm. I think I might have that microwave Fishball soup we bought the other day.

Since the daylight saving started/ended, it gets really dark early. I have been very strict with myself with a new rule - Leave the office by 6pm. Been pretty good the last 2 days but today, I was off by 10mins because I wanted to wait for Lily to go home together.

Btw, its amazing how some people really don’t want to give up seat for me. I can be standing at the disabled seats and have people staring at me and no one gives me any seat. Because I treasure my safety, I usually have to be kiasu and rush to the next empty seat. I don’t even feel shy about it anymore.

Been stressed at work and also I’ve bonded with Baby, makes me want to take the whole year off. But I still like the interaction with the corporate world and also the money is good. I’m pretty lost. Babies grow up very quickly and I really don’t want to miss a single significant moment with Baby. Yet, I want to help with the finance and also build up our finances. Decisions decisions decisions!

The books I got from Amazon came today and it’s great. I love it. Will be reading the nursery rhymes to Baby tonight.

Btw, Baby just kicked me hard. Maybe he wants me to tell u that he misses you. And I have decided on X X L. So it shall be.

Miss you lots,
H & Baby

KL is away for work again. This time, its for about 15 days - the longest ever on his business trips.

He sent me an email this morning and I really wanted to archive it, so I am leaving his email here.

I survived pretty well yesterday and today. Yesterday, I went out and met some people. Meals were not alone and I went for mass. Read a book to Baby and told him where KL was. Didn’t sleep very well however as I had to wake up many times in the night having to go pee.

Today was the start of the work week and as usual, busy as always. Missed KL quite a bit but I definitely wasn’t as emotional as his Japan ski trip.

Just made Mee Sua for Dinner and washed all the dishes we’ve collected since Friday. YUCKS! I even make some chicken stock for tomorrow’s dinner. Since KL usually spoils me rotten with cut fruits, I decided to make myself some fruit salad to bring to work tomorrow.

I think I’m doing pretty okay with KL away in his business trip. I don’t think anyone can understand how I fear loneliness. Maybe I am managing better this time because I have the Baby to talk to and share my time with. It’s funny how I’ve suddenly bonded with him in the last couple of week. I really feel truly happy I have another person I can share my life with. I guess I never feel like that about my pregnancy until now.

I received in a long chinese email this morning at work. I have no clue what it said. Luckily, they was an English translation at the bottom.

Sent it to Co for laughs. She wrote back and said, ” You do realise that you are part of the ‘China Team’ right?”

I emailed her back, “PUI!”

Co replied, “I’m not joking. Scroll down.”

“Please forward this to the China Team”

I wrote to Co, “Craps! I can’t even read the first line. Let alone understand.”

Co emailed back with this:

“Tats alright. U’re still part of the china team. They love you and will overlook your ’shortcomings’. They might just make you china team leader, for your ability to chit chat with them and attend long dinners with them. Hehehehehe *snigger*”

ARGH!

On our last dinner with my parents in Melly, we went to TGI Fridays. Dad was not hungry, probably coz he was like me, a little sad that we’re going to be apart again.

At the end of the dinner, a couple sat at the table beside us. When I came back from the toilet, I hear this conversation between dad and mum.

Dad says: Here the “ya” very big hor? (referring to the lady’s boobs)

Mum says: Ya, good. Later we go Casino, we also “ya” big big.

Me: *roll eyes*

KL looked confused, not understanding the conversation.

I notice that my butt is bigger.

KL says that in Summer since our feet, finger swells too big for our wedding band. So, butts swells too.

Most people will say, “What a sweet husband.”

I say, “What a load of crap!”

I haven’t been writing much because I have been moody/ovulating/pms-ing and maybe sometimes a little bi-polar(bear). See? Mad!

I’m all down and pessimistic with my life. Always thought married already with dream guy will lead perfect life. Nah. Rubbish. My whole freaking life always filled with the money problems, rather, the lack of it.

Sorry folks. The rule is No Money, No Home, No Baby! In that order.

I told BS yesterday that my ovaries want to wring his kuku.

Called Mum today (I very rarely do that).

She told me that Dad misses me and is broken hearted?!?

In her own words, “He misses you lah. He like his heart broken broken.”

We joined the mailing list for the cherry farm we went to the last time and we’ve been gettting weekly emails.

This week, they announced that they had to bring their last 2 cows to the market and was pretty sad about it.

Co said, “He went to do the groceries for the family. Say no more.”
I said, “But he never return!”
Co said, “He hasn’t returned… shhhh…..”

Private joke with BS - “the i wanna do naughty things to u feeling? ”

Hahaa…

Called Daddy today for our weekly chitchat and we basically gossip about my uncles and aunties, but mostly, my cousins.

One of them is about to marry an indian and I casually asked what is his surname since we are going to be in-laws soon. Dad said, something “Kachang Puteh” or “Chandrasamy”. Hahaaa….

Then we talked about my other cousin (S) who is working for her parents. Dad made this statement, “She is a one-eye-jack in the kingdom of the blind.”

My dad, never seize to surprise me with his rubbish.

“Btw, love your pictures… for some reason your icon pictures always tell a story. i like that. and it always looks happy. nothing cool, nothing wannabe, just always story pictures that look so happy. nice to see whenever i turn my mac on. cheers.”

KA’s comments on my IM icon

KL: It’s definitely not listed! If it is, I won’t be living in a 997 per month rented flat. And our pool will be kidney shaped.

Me: Please… like that I want maybe 3 lane swimming pool.

KL: Yah, cos I need 2 lanes.

Me: Hahaa… we can swim side by side =)

Text Msg from GL in India:

I’ve caught the flu and feel damn sucky. Am counting the days to going home, shamefully. I miss you.

Last week, GL told me that she had been experimenting with eye makeup and loves her new mascara which I have given to her. Note, it’s a freebie. She soon discovered that she can’t live without her mascara. Which made me pray that she didn’d bring her mascara to India. Anyway, last sunday, inspired by her, I put a little effort in my eye make up before going out. Trust me, I don’t put on make up unless I know I’m meeting someone. So, I came home and text GL in India. This was my text message:

“Today, I tried eyeliner and mascara. Went lunch, museum and then walk abt in the city. Came home and looked in the mirror - someone punched me. KL said I look like Panda. Mission Failed. Miss u.”
