On A Thurs Night

Came back quite a while ago from Lush Anniversary Party at Zirca. Hmm...nice to be able to 'chill out' with colleagues but after some time spent there, not really appreciate the loud music and lotz of pple talking. Am still looking forward to rush home and spend time with my son. So, I sms my hubby at ____pm who's around the area after his cg and went home b4 the event ended.

A few changes coming up at work... recently met a few bumps here and there coz of the changes. Could felt the impact of the economic downturn so real personally, but i'm still hanging on and fighting thru. Realised recently that there are people who can lie through their teeth so blatantly and yet not feel sorry about it...Nothing's new under the sun though.

On another note, it really felt great to be praised by your boss :p

(Boss, you may be reading this... just to tell you it's been nice working in your team, :p)

I know I'm blabbering now... just an indication that it's time to sleep. Gd nitez!

.......

Okie, I'm back to add in a few lines.

My hubby said I didn't blog abt him praising me.

Ok lah, he praised me the last few days.....

On certain days,

Me: 'Honey, am I fat?'

Hubby: 'No, you're not, you're gorgeous...'

On other days,

Me: 'Honey am I fat?'

Hubby: 'It's ok honey, I'm fine with that....'

Ehhhhh....

Just Some Thoughts...

Am just thinking of blogging about something though there isn't much unusual happenings these few days.

Last wk's sermon on V-Day week is abt the next few needs that men and women have. You know what, it's not something surprising when we learnt that men needs a recreational companion and attractive spouse. Hmm, but as I'm evaluating..somehow these 2 points are quite contradicting.

Yo's recreation is eating good food, other than watching movies. I would love to be his recreational companion. These 2 activities are such easy tasks to accomplish. But the prob is, in order to be an attractive spouse, I can't eat too much.. So that leaves us only 1 last option: watching movies.. hee...

We celebrated V-Day on the following Mon... ate a nice meal at Bali Villa, wanted to watch a show, but ended up shopping. It has been sometime since I've really shopped for myself. I've a weird habit: I don't find much prob splurging on other pple - like buying gifts, clothes for my family, friends, son, colleagues, church mates, cg mem and treating them for a meal. But when it comes to buying clothes for myself, I'll find it a waste of money. Not trying to prove a point here, but it's really something I struggled. And I shared this with my hubby... So on Mon, I managed to buy a really nice purple chic dress, green pleated long flowy top and grey checked pants. Spent abt 250 bucks - And of coz got my hubby to pay for it since I can't bear to part with my money on my own personal expenses.. Hahaha (well, no choice, since he wanted an attractive spouse)

While doing all these shopping, I realised that he likes me to wear clothes that will make me look 'curvy'. Clothes that I like bcoz i look slim in them, he says I look like a barrel (straight all the way at the sides). Clothes that I don't like bcoz I look huge in them, he says I look gorgeous.. ??!! Think men and women really look at things differently. Sign..

Oh ya, something about Georgie.. This morn b4 i left for work, I told him saying, 'Georgie Boy, Mummy go work work, u play with Popo, be good boy ok? Ok? Ok? (Yes, I keep on repeating Ok..)

And he responded: 'Ok.' (Now, I'm not exaggerating - ask my mum)

Sentuh Hatiku (Touch My Heart)

A song inspired by the true story of a girl, who's sexually abused by her father daily. Being extremely traumatised, she would lose her senses and screamed and yelled, esp when there were guests in the house. Her father had to lock her with chains and shut her in a storeroom.

There was a Christian friend who came to visit her regularly to tell her about God's forgiveness and prayed for her daily w/o fail.

One of the nights, after her Christian friend had left for another city, there was a strong light that shone down from above. Miraculously, by the power of God, her chains were suddenly broken and she was loosened. The 1st thought that came into her mind was: 'I'm going to use these chains to kill my father!' However, just seconds later, God began to speak to her and said: ' I have forgiven you of your sins and washed your guilt away. Will you also extend the same level of forgiveness to your father as well....?'

This is what the song meant:

How I love

Everythng that has happened

I never walked this life alone because You're always here with me

How I realised

In my life

You always give the best plan because of Your love

Father, touch my heart change my life

Like the pure gold

You shape the vessel in my heart

Father, teach me to understand love

That always give

Like water that keeps on flowing and never ends

Georgie's 1st Walker

Finally he got the experience of walking on his 2 feet by his own!

And this is how he felt as he watched his walker being installed...
PS: Look at his feet :p

A Happy Marriage Is A Long Conversation Which Always Seems Too Short

How's that for a title? I came across this line in the latest Mother & Baby mag. Just in line with the upcoming romance seminar.

Anyway, I'm back from Jakarta. Funny thing is Javier and Zhanwei came to fetch us at the airport. Georgie was exceptionally excited to see Ja, and his legs, as usual went kicking to and fro.

I asked Ja whether he received lotsa ang pows. He denied initially. However in the car, he confessed he got quite a lot. I asked him what is he going to do with the money. He replied: 'I'm going to buy a house.'

Ok....... that's quite a nice ambition, haha.

It was back at home then I realised that Evelyn promised to buy him a pet dog when they got a bigger house... Zhanwei told me.

My MIL said that LingLing (Yo's sis, a 10-yr old girl) instructed her not to wash our bedsheet at Jakarta. Coz she said that there is Georgie's body smell on it. :) Seems like she really missed the little boy...
