This is the first time im posting at such an hour of the day.... MORNING!
That's only cos im too sick to go online after work for the past few days, i really need to rest.
Despite having a terrible sore throat, scratchy voice, congested nose and all the trimmings of URTI, (thats Upper Respiratory Tract Infection)...Im at work on a fine and beautiful Saturday morning..Just got the toys out to sun an hour ago. Sunny day today, the pool next door is calling me.....Damn i really need to exercise

I would like to express my sadness....cos my 'lil Princess' Christine is leaving by July 2nd. Never i thought she'd go first before me, cos i almost wanted to quit and leave my babies behind.
Im SO SAD> How can i not have the usual charm and sparkle of sunshine....and a lil bit of drama and tears in my class every day? She's almost become like my own. Of course its inevitable. They grow up, and change school to meet their needs.

I really don't know what to say to Michelle. After i briefly said that I heard she was leaving already. I told her i gonna miss her daughter loads. She gave a faint smile as if knowing how sad i was gonna be. As she was the one who told me not to leave my job cos the kids love me and she likes how i care for Chris.

It was a lil different with Rasmus ( the-all-Singaporean-at-heart German Cutie)
I ALMOST cried when Fenna and Ingo came to pick him up on his last day. Fenna was nice enough to put him in 3 more days cos i was going to miss him more if he left any earlier. And they were going back to Germany. Even they didn't want to. Cos their life was here in Singapore. Sometimes i feel the sadness of parting these expats have.
......................... :(

Well.......
I still have a lil over 3 weeks with the Lil' (Ruff & Tumble) Princess now...
Cherish that.

It's been a while since i last updated. Seems thats all i can afford right now is to update like once or twice a month :P
Been suffering a pretty bad stomach flu since last weekend. And i still have not much appetite to eat like i used to. I mean the pain and what not is gone, and so is the appetite. I've been eating pretty bland foods for a week, and only Fri did i start eating real foods. It was Hani's engagement last Sat, so i stayed over Fri night to help with her preparations. It was fun, mingled with all their family members. I helped her with her gubahan and room decor, bit here & there. Slept pretty late. Han was busy taking pics of us and the whole enchilada.
Sat morning got up early, woke up with a weird feelin...."Where am i? My room's not pink!" then i looked around, i was in Hani's room. All her cousins were asleep including her big bro Han. Oh well, I got up, showered and everything and mama asked to help make some tea for the kids while she and the other makciks go buy some more things needed for Hani's engagement pressies.
Very creative ideas i must say, i especially liked the cherries and wine glass gubahan, and of course the fruit basket which me, Syafurah and Hani decide to give a lil makeover! :)
So i went back home by noon, and got dressed in my royal blue baju kurung, since Han is wearing blue too :P. Came back to their house with my mom, and few min later, the guy's side came. It was pretty lovely. Han was at one corner of the living room taking vids, i was at the other corner taking pics, then when the pihak lelaki say, Hani & Syam ikat for 2 yrs, both me & Han just looked at each other and gasped. ( That means, we're getting married in the same year as lil sis Hani & Syam) Good luck Mama & Papa. Everyone took pics and say their congrats to the lucky girl. She was pretty. Makeup was perfect, dress was beautiful, and everyone had a good feast & get together.
Their family was big. And fun to be with, i must say, they were very happy to have finally met me, the fiance. And grateful that we're finally going to tie the knot after 9 long years of courting. Both of us were really happy for Hani. Happier still that we'll be doing our preparations and wedding in the same year. How exciting, but stressful too :P
Im hoping to complete all my planning and have everything done, andaman, baju, photography/ videography, catering, hantaran etc, by Dec 2008 at least. So that'll leave me and dearie Han some months to breathe before the big day. Its doesn't seem very far away actually, since its already mid 2007. OMG, how fast the year really flies. It's scary.
