Day Gone Wrong

Today is a day gone wrong. I put too much salt in the eggs for french toast breakfast. Was so looking forward to preparing breakfast for The Husband but turned out to be a failure. A little bit lost looking for Phoon Huat in Ang Mo Kio. Clever me didn't take down the address. And there's no iPhone to search the internet. But, found it in the end. Haha! Colleague said there's cheese fries in the canteen, and they're still frying the fries as we spoke, but when I reached the stall, the last two sets were JUST sold. Oh well. I stepped on a concrete slab thinking it's safe from the puddle of mud beside it. But noooo. It was a floating slab. I stepped on it, and SPLASH goes mud on my white dress. Lots of it Urgh. DON'T. LIKE. Cold, dirty and my dress was mopping the floor. I forgot to take my ATM card from my other bag, had to go home to take it before paying bills. The person before me took ages to pay bills. I want my husband :(

Sleepy :(

I am so sleepy. Didn't get a good sleep yesterday night, our second first night at our home, and Other Half had lots of work to do. Slept beside him while he was doing work but couldn't really sleep anyway. He couldn't either. Maybe we're not used to the house yet, just like we weren't used to it the first first night! Haha :) Will be back there on Wednesday! Cos Other Half isn't around and I am not allowed to stay alone. And I've got to start cooking. This morning I woke up super early, eager to make breakfast for Other Half but failed. How can I fail making french toast?!?! Put too much salt in it. Bleah. Oh well. Shall try again. I think Thursday morning I shall make jemput-jemput pisang! Haha. I'm getting rusty with cooking. Need to practise more! And get the kitchen and house fully equipped too. Other Half isn't in Singapore for three days sobsob :( But the good news is! I think the Egypt trip is cancelled! YAHOOOO!!! Or maybe I shouldn't ...

Of Nutrition, Weird Mothers & An Accident

My stomach is getting a lot of attention from me. Haha. Easily bloated, hunger pangs, hungry very often, but when presented with food, sometimes I can be so full I can't eat so much, or I'm so hungry I can eat like a bear. And I still want my Korean strawberries! Found some at Cold Storage Bugis yesterday, and they look big and unsweet. I want the ones I had from NTUC Toa Payoh! Haha :p Am quite conscious of the food I'm eating these days, to make sure I get enough nutrients. Yesterday I was worrying if I have enough protein and iron cos I don't think I'm eating enough meat. While I was busy calculating how much iron I'm consuming, I realised I am eating multi-vitamins! Turns out, those yucky pills have already met my daily iron requirement! Haha! So what's left is calcium and Omega-3, but then again I've read that too much fish isn't good too because of the high mercury content in most fish. Bummer. And I've found a food that covers BOTH calci...

I Want To Move In!

I CAN'T WAIT TO MOVE INTO MY HOUSE! Contractor please hurry up and finish whatever so we can move in. It's been too long. I wanna unpack and clean and do whatever I want.

TWO Overseas Trips

Husband has two (yes, TWO ) overseas trips within two weeks next month. And it clashes with our important date on the 10th. Soooo. Should I change the date or not. Cos right now I sure feel like I don't.

All Coming Together

My parents came over to our house on both days during the weekend, and they like our house! Yay! It's all slowly coming together now, just the minor paint touch ups and the drillings of shelves, railings etc, and Thursday we'll be welcoming our big items like sofa (HUGE I tell you), bookshelves, and my bedroom wardrobe. And then slowly we can fill it up. With A LOT of stuff. Haha. The kitchen is warming itself up, fridge was delivered last Saturday, washing machine installed, and I've washed most utensils that were kept in the store for over a year. Am very eager to fill up the high cabinet and the fridge too! Hehe. Can't wait for Thursday! My mum's coming down to help unpack. I think she can't stand the sight of mess. HAHAHA.

Apple Pie

Something I should try out, apple pie:   HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA  

Books To Get!

Would like to get these books! Borrowed them at the neighbourhood library to kill time. And it's about time I started reading up! :) So far it's been a good read! I've come across normal books which offer week by week descriptions are not very informative. You could get the info from the net. These are a little different. I like what I read thus far :) Good tips on how to bond with the little one, what it can hear, do and experience as a baby. Serves as a good reminder of what should or should not be done now that you're gonna be a mother. This book (I've only read the first chapter hahaha) thus far has vivid description of conception! Good for people like me who didn't pay attention during biology in school. Hahahaha. Will be a good reference when my little angels ask us how they were formed :) I think the third book is this: Pictorals! Yay! All that DNA stuff in words soooo don't get into my head :D I'm a visual person, and pictures, especial...

I HATE Waiting

I hate waiting. It's my number one pet peeve. I don't like being late and I don't like waiting for people who are late. If you're going to be late, please inform in advance so I can change my plans. I don't think I'm impatient. Would you call someone impatient if he/she waits for someone at the arranged time? No rite. It's a justified anger. Both parties have already agreed to come at a certain time. If that person came early and expect people to be early, then ya la you can call that person impatient. Oh wait. I hate it even more when I have to wait, and the person is not contactable. That is just outrageous. Late without any notice AND cannot be reached. Make my blood boil.
