I have been putting off my touch with social media for quite awhile. I surf Facebook just once or twice a day (in average), The last time I login to my Twitter was like 2 months ago (or cld be longer), I created a Instagram account for myself but didn't really use it. (only 1 photo).
So I was at my Girls style hip hop dance class the other day, when my dance instructor when ard the room asking for everyone's Instagram ID as she kindly wish to tag us in a group picture we had jus taken.
I was patting myself silently on the back for having already created an account thus not looking uncool in front of the youths. When the instructor was like, "eh why you got only 1 photo', it was than I had to confess I am not exactly a Instagram user.
There's nothing wrong I know, but I jus don't get how people can have the time or mood to login /update on their Facebook, twitter, Instagram, blog, MySpace, LinkedIn, everyday.
It takes a certain talent to be able to take good photos on Instagram, and I doubt that's in me.
Nevertheless, as a former marketing person, I will persevere to stay in touch with the trend.

1st Decade friendship
Celebrated 1st decade friendship with a group of Polymates tonight. Had potluck together at Sid's loft. Efforts from individual were really appreciated as we dig into the beetroot salads, chilli crab dip with no real crab only prawn (haha), all-time favorite sashimi, roasted chicken and fish fillet. Though the amt seem modest but it was just abt right for our seemingly small group.
Me, supported the menu with my fruit salad which I'm kinda proud of, cuz I prepared all fruits lovingly by myself with no help from R.
Proud of Z today too, today's the first time I had a no tantrum/fussy/overly-tired baby when I'm at Sid's place. Baby Z was having such a good time with my friends. The moment I was waiting for. I actually manage to have proper conversation with the gang without a crying baby that demands for a hug every few mins.

Ahem no more
Im finally well, after close to a month, I can finally munch on cheezels & M&Ms without coughing & choking like a diseased women.
Drank 3 different kind of cough remedy and all doesn't work. Had to visit GP twice before the medicine starts working. Counter medication really doesn't work. Regrey wasting my time & money on them seriously.
I missed my daily snacks so much O think Im close to depression during work. So even though Im still having teensy bit of phlegm at the back of my throat. Im not waiting anymore. Its cheezels , M&Ms, juices, everything. Bring it on. But I will still down as much liquid as possible, of course.
Baby Z had running nose a few days ago, and hubby & me was like 'Not again'
Thankfully, it went away after a few days of Cod liver oil that we gave baby.
Can't believe it's been 6 mths at my new job. Had my job assessment done informally 4 days ago. Basically everything has been good so far. There are the ups & downs but I am sticking to my strong faith that this will be a good place to stick on.
I'm so thankful, so grateful for the opportunity given by God through a family member. Looking back, I knew I wouldn't enjoy my son's first year as much should I have stick with my old job.
Praise the Lord.

A brand new re-start
Have been working at a new company for close to 3mths now. But Im liking every single day of it. Hours pass swiftly, it's pretty fast pace too in a certain way but there is no pressuring ridiculous deadlines to follow.
I never dislike deadlines, just dislike the irrational ones.
And of course there is No more discounts off expensive clothes that I dun intend to buy. No more scrutinization of ur dressing from ultra fashionable people whom either wear outfits too young OR too old for their age. No more fashion show, no more casting of gorgeous models, no more Macarons. Ok i miss the Macarons the most.
Having spent 3 yrs here, I thot I wld feel a tinge of 舍不得 but surprisingly, my last day was just like any other day. In fact, even quieter than normal days as lots of colleagues were overseas. Haha. Better this way too. Since 10 yrs down the road I wun remember this part of my life much anyway.
In the past, I used to often wonder, is there something wrong with me, why can't I jus get along. No matter how hard I try. It just doesn't fit, it's like a mismatch jigsaw puzzle.
Than I learn.
"Haters don't hate you. They hate themselves because you are a reflection of what they want to be"
I have a successful love life whereby I end up married to a wonderful man and now have a beautiful son. I am slim and vibrant even after delivering my beautiful son. I have parents that love and care for me. Siblings that doesn't display open affection but are there for u whenever u need help. I'm always contended at what I have. I have a stable job with adequate income.
So Yes, I dun blame anyone for ever hating or disliking me.
"If someone has a problem with you, remember, it's their issue. Don't give up any of your energy to negativity. You are worth so much more than that."

What to buy for Baby Shower
Been to a ex-schoolmate baby shower a few days back, and when a friend pop the question of what should they buy for a baby shower, it gives me ideas for a blog post.
Since I’m a mother of one now, I was thinking of sharing what to buy for a baby shower. Buying baby gifts can be one of the most complicated decision one faces, especially if the new mum n dad are your close friend or friends that matter a lot to you but you have really no idea what to get for them. So here’s a few tips.
What to buy if you are sharing with a big group
Budget between 100-200 dollars
Baby Bouncer/Rocker
Baby Booster seat such as the popular Bumbo with feeding tray, it’s the most in baby chair right now, and baby can sit in them once they can hold up their little head, which is roughly between 3-4mth.
Activity Gym Mat, If you wanna take a break from all that carrying, this mat could certainly entertain your little chum for 5-15mins. But be sure to always stay beside if not nearby when they are playing.
Play mats, Do check if your friend's place has a nice big space, cause these mats tend to be big and if they are living in a crampy HDB flat, than the mats would most likely be kept rolled up all the time. In that case, you may wanna consider getting a alphabet mat. The kind that look like jigsaw puzzle.
Baby beddings, although they would of course already have one which their baby sleeps on, but any additional bedding would be really helpful as they can have more to replace whenever they sent it for washing.
Baby Carrier. You may wish to check with them if they already have one. Since its sharing with a big group, you could buy from a good brand such as Ergobaby.

And than there’s the buying as an individual
Budget between $30 - $100
Sophie the Giraffe , award winning baby teether toy. Unlike the rest of the teething toys in the market whereby they are either too big or too small, the size of the giraffe allows your little one to grab it by its leg or neck and comfortably thrust it into their eager mouth. You can buy it at Takashimaya or simply google it online as it is carried by many online baby stores.
Baby Musical Book, all babies love music and lights, my baby's musical book keeps him from screaming every time, works like a charm.
Diapers, that works for all parents, though you may not know what brand they are using, but usually in the first month, parents are experimenting with a few brands to see which is best for their baby, so by you sponsoring them, they do not need to use their own money to buy various brand to test it out.
Baby clothes gift set.
Baby rattle, as the cost is relatively low, it is good if you are on a really tight budget but would still like to buy something nice. If you have a bigger budget, throw in a teething toy for good measures.
Gift vouchers, this is among all, the best. Don’t think I need to say more. But than, what’s the fun in that. Personally, I love shopping for gifts, and gift vouchers are usually an option I took if I am running out of time and I really do not know the couple that well.
Stuff I would recommend you not buy
DOM, though drinking this stuff is really good for the new mummy, but confinement is almost over by now, so it may be a little too late to get this.
Chicken essence, same rationale as DOM, with the terrible confinement over, the mummy should have pretty much recovered the strength by now, if not, what she needs is probably a good night sleep and not chicken essence to keep her awake.
Fruits, this is a baby shower, not a visit to the hospital, hello~~
Gold anklets, though the value of gold is much appreciated, it seems odd for friends to give that, isn’t that more of a grandma thingy. You wouldn’t want the grandma to look bad, should your gold anklet be thicker or nicer than theirs right.
Nursing Pads, aka Breast pads, used for padding up a maternity bra and is ideally for Mums with lotsa milk supply. Not all mums need that, and if they are no longer breastfeeding, giving them this is like giving them a jab of guilty medicine. If you really have extras that looks brand new, why not just pass it to the new parents for free and throw in some toys or diapers.

Sure hope this helps. Gonna update this list with more items should any more pop into my mind today.Actually, there are really lotsa wonderful gifts out there, and if that friend means something to you, pop by a baby store or make a quick surf online, you will definitely find something.

Revival Awaits me.
I have no idea how I’m gonna start the momentum of keeping up a blog. Its like once you stop, the writer blocks starts piling higher and higher on you and eventually you have no motivation nor interest to write a single entry. But still, my life is about to take on a new beginning, a very happy beginning, so it gives me the inspiration to go back to what I like doing. Writing my blog.
Ever since I started my days in the ‘fashion’ line, my interest in blog writing seems to drop day after day. Because I like to blog when Im in a happy, amused, crazy, self-obsessed, kaypoh mood. But for the past few years, work has taken on such an emotional toil on me, I have no interest in any other stuff. I should have seen that coming earlier, but well, everything happens for a reason. Yes God, I’m finally hearing you now. Perhaps you wanted me to stay that long so that I can see even clearer, the FASHION line, the MARKETING world is seriously not my cup of tea. Its something I am very willing to drop at any point in time, and I’m hoping I’m gonna have the opportunity to drop it very soon. Marketing is a very exciting, glamorous, fun, dynamic career, or so it appears. It is not too bad, yes, but simply put, not my cup of tea.
My smile has been erased slowly from my face over the past 2.5 years, working here it feels so…uncomfortable.Right from the start.Can't wait to leave. No more pretenses, no more cheek paste cheek kind of greeting. No more live telecast of uncomfortable, nonsensical debate on how much VIPS should spend in order to get discount. No more trying to fit in. No more doing manual stupid cleaning of database, no more answering of stupid questions.
I truly Thank God for a good loving family, a 95% percent perfect hubby, a super duper adorable baby. Deep down I really knew God you are good to me. I know these are from the grace of God, simply put, none of the people ard me at work has this full family life.
Between company ExCitIng events and staying at home with my hubby reading watching downloaded movies, i choose the latter any day. Now even better, I get to play with the most adorable baby. Suck on that fellas.
Revival awaits me. Baby, mummy coming home now. Oh God, I love you.

Life
Lying on the bed, hoping I can dong until my hubby comes home. Which most likely is not.
Reflecting Time. I'm scared of being alone sometimes, dun we all, being alone, my mind tends to wander n starts thinking, thinking abt past, present, future.
Being married at 26, I learnt that it's more important to get contented than to dream dreams. Of course, when it comes to work, it's different. Work is abt having self expectation, if u r nt getting wat u think u deserve, maybe it's time to reflect n start thinking have u increase ur expectation towards ur own work. Maybe u r nt as good as u think, Jessica.
As for life after marriage, I prefer to call it a bed of roses, cuz I really have a wonderful husband that takes good care of me all these while, I spend, he saves. Thank God for him, I usually spent jus enough to make his heart skip a beat : )
Though I didn't have a magical magazine pictures worthy wedding decor at my wedding venue, a truly professional photographer, or memorable video montage that depicts our love story in cute cartoons, posh wedding cars that WOW all my relatives, exciting and torturing door games for the groom, romantic Europe honeymoon, and a dream loft that we could call our own whereby we could walk around in our best lingerie n lounge in sofas with grapes dangling from our fingertips. A room reserved for the baby, with Disney wall papers and loads of baby toys and alphabets mats.
Though all these may not be destined in my life. Having a super in love first year of marriage before we start planning and getting excited for a baby instead of the sudden surprise here.
but I remain contented cuz I knew that in this world there are mothers that have no roof over their head, that are working their heads off to pay off debts of gambling husband, there are couples that have to live on bread every day for months jus so they could pay off their wedding debts. Couples that spent years yearning for a baby.
Contended becuz I have You. You. You. (translate as God, Hubby, Baby)
Well this post does seem to be a little negative, but can't blame me cuz the Daddy of my child chose Lion King over Mummy.

It's a Baby!
Counting down every week towards the Big 3.
No Im not talking abt the magic 3-0. With my baby face, im not worried abt getting old. yet.
Its 9 weeks 3 days now in approximate. My God, can't wait for my 12 weeks to be over.
I feel like a game character, a weak game character. Energy level and Health level depletes whenever end day comes. I had to rush home as soon as possible for a recharge, if not a half zombie half human character would be seen in my office the following day. Appetite gets cranky as every meal needs to first go through a detailed brain scan before i could figure what should be ordered.
All symptoms seems to be showing signs of wearing out, whew am super glad.
Thank God my pregnancy sickness occurs only in the evening, which allows me to be able to carry on with my job in the day. But as my motion sickness gets worse during these period, I really dread taking any kind of transport, cause they are like a catalyst in decreasing my energy level. Regardless, mrt rides, car rides, taxi rides or bus rides, all leaves me feeling half alive at the end of the journey. Car rides is the worse it seem.
Sleeping is a tiresome affair man, i dun recall a single night whereby i dun wake up at least twice to wee-wee. So the earlier i fall asleep, the more times i would have went to the toilet.
My gynae is recommending me to eat like a cockroach now, stuffing whatever i feel like eating, be it chocolates, ice cream, chips and whatever. Even when it comes to milk, its full cream baby, no low fat. My 6th-7th week was really bad, i have no interest for any kind of food, even tidbits. The green light for snacks and junks therefore doesn't really helps, cuz i have no appetite for anything. But the hunger keeps me feeling even more tired, even more emo, even more cranky and even more stress as the fear of having threaten miscarriage during this 'dangerous' first trimester sets in.
My boobs are already getting fuller it seems, but nt gonna be heading down any Wacoal soon cuz I'm having a buy baby clothes mindset now, dun buy until u r sure what size. Will I have a E cup or F cup eventually? Hmm.. If yes I'm definitely gonna go take those pregnancy photoshoot, those arty farty kind with one hand covering half my boobs and revealing my smooth round tummy. Even the thoughts excites me, Woo~
My beloved hubby helps neutralise my cranky mood with a special belated Xmas Gift.
Have been craving, drooling over this baby since poly days, I remember those days, i would pore over Yahoo Auctions daily, clicking thru the pages looking for well-maintained 2nd hand LV speedy. But i would never bid for any of them cuz the price than, even for a 2nd hand, is just not within my budget, in fact I did not even set a budget for myself. So its just a keep dreaming thing.
So imagine my joy, when I finally gotten my dream Louis Vuitton Speedy 25, its like wah beyond explanation. My first experience in buying a LV from the boutique was simply fantastic, met this extremely nice and friendly sales person at Takashimaya LV whom shows full enthu in serving us.
Back to baby topic, hope my energy level can quickly resume back to normal, i pity my hubby sometimes. To have a boring wife thats only eats liitle, give tired and sian face, and spent her every moment with him being half asleep and half dead.

Merry December
Feeling super pissed rite now, had no idea what happen to my latest blog entry which I wrote last nite. Maybe I wrote it in my dreams.
Haha
December was an equally eventful month, a busy but happy month cause it's Xmas!!
Bought the most Xmas presents but spent the least time buying them this yr. Cuz I think of the gift that I wanna buy first instead of wasting time roaming ard overly crowded shopping malls.
A recap of my Xmas month, i can't believe so much has been done.
Ran my first marathon. Saw these 'motivation' quotes that people pinned on themselves. Regretted not writing one too.
The weather was super hot. But with R running beside me, it really motivates me to keep going. But I realise one thing too, it is impossible to run while holding hands with ur partner.
IMPOSSIBLE for me that is.
Think most people already know except for goondu me.
Been to 6 Xmas celebrations
Serve in church nursery (love seeing the toddlers)

Haha
December was an equally eventful month, a busy but happy month cause it's Xmas!!
Bought the most Xmas presents but spent the least time buying them this yr. Cuz I think of the gift that I wanna buy first instead of wasting time roaming ard overly crowded shopping malls.
A recap of my Xmas month, i can't believe so much has been done.
Ran my first marathon. Saw these 'motivation' quotes that people pinned on themselves. Regretted not writing one too.
The weather was super hot. But with R running beside me, it really motivates me to keep going. But I realise one thing too, it is impossible to run while holding hands with ur partner.
IMPOSSIBLE for me that is.
Think most people already know except for goondu me.
Been to 6 Xmas celebrations
Serve in church nursery (love seeing the toddlers)

Eventful Nov
Eventful November.
After procrastinating for months, thinking about it for years, I finally join a church ministry. Since 3 weeks ago, I start serving in the nursery in my church. It's fun but it's really tiring for me, following the young kids everywhere.
I think cuz I'm new so I intend to try to have something to do all the time, like starting a new job. Cuz when I look ard the room, all the rest looks relax n sometimes bored (maybe sleepy) although a cute kid is playing in front of them.
Being in a nursery gives me mixed feelings about having a child of my own. For a moment when a really really cute baby is playing in front of me, It makes me yearn to have one too but the next moment I wld see an irritating fella snatching other babies toys or crying out loud jus cuz they dun wanna share their toy.Which breaks my thought totally.
HaHa.
And of cuz, old news. My baby nephew is out. Heard he is capable of doing many many cute expression AND also cry fiercely when unprovoked.
Handsome Boy. It's really hard To play with babies. Cuz I came to realize, the key seems to lies in how good u r in distracting them, getting their attention, cuz at infant stage they r nt gonna play peek-a-boo with u definitely.
The sad thing is that a pity Eiden can never see or be carried in the arms by PoPo. Cuz my Ah Ma passed away on Sat. Died of old age at a respectful age of 93. She died while being surrounded by most of her children. Am so glad & truly thank God for the blessing, allowing her to not died alone. My aunts told me dat my Ah Ma had often ask, when is she leaving, she wish to leave, cuz all her friends are gone. I dunno but jus feel sad. It's like a let in on how she felt inside. Really lonely.
On weekdays, as she is wheelchair bound, her only entertainment would be tv watching & talking to the maid. Her Indonesian maid understands English, Chinese and Dialect. But still the sucky feelin of nothin much to look forward in life, to jus live ur life day by day. I jus couldn't imagine.
Jus finish funeral procession of Ah Ma last 9 days ago. Took almost 8 hrs. My tears came only when Ah Ma was gonna be push into the furnace, any human being would wept buckets when u see and hear ur mum & relatives crying out loud, calling out.
Though I never really got a chance to get to know her better or let her have a chance to know me better cuz she was already close to 70 when I learnt to speak.
It really makes me wanna have a kid fast. My mum is already coming to 65. I want my kid To be able to chit chat with both my parents, know them with their heart. To have a grandparents bonding.

Baby Eden
I'm an Auntie!!
I'm an Auntie!
I'm an Auntie!
My nephew is finally out, been secretly waiting for this day. As the hospital is right behind my office building, I'm manage to have first hand peek at the small bundle of joy.
I like his date of birth! 12/11/10 like countdown. So cute~
Now presenting
Baby Eden Ee Rong Le!
Yawn!
Nudge~ Nudge~
Ready, 1,2,3
CRY~~
Crying for joy as he jus had his first poo~
Jessica Ah Yi play with Eden his first game of scissor paper stone!
Haha.
There is really nothin much I can play with him, cuz newborn are so fragile. I dun even dare to carry him. But it's so interesting to see that tiny chap making small sound and a shiver every now & than.
Gonna visit Sis again after work, can't wait for the day to be over!
Note: Rem, Babies are only cute n fun to play with IF THEY ARE NOT YOURS!
An opportunity is knocking, decisions need to be made. Need to think things.

Happy Deepavali
Had a wonderful weekend well-spent with 老公 :)
Went for a nice buffet lunch at MBS, there isn't much variety, Shangri-la The Line is still much much better.
But I still love buffet. Who don't. With endless supply of salmon, nice air-conditioned environment,nice background music and company of yandao guy, it makes anyone a happy gal.
That's the size of my strawberry, see so BIG! My grape looks puny sitting beside.
They even got Mango Sago with mango cubes! Wah this was the best man, somemore the taste got Crystal Jade standard.
I would have place more food pics if they have better variety, but that's really abt all they have. They do have plenty of desserts but to me, choc fondue is all dat matters.
We walk back to Singapore Flyer where R park his car. Walking to n fro was tiring, and with the good food in our tummy , we went home straight n spent the rest of the afternoon sleeping till dinner time.
Eat Sleep Eat. Arrhh BLISS~~
Second day of Holiday, went cycling at East Coast Park early in the morning with R and friends. It's been so long since I've cycled day, went to my favorite friend's son birthday party where candy floss, candy treats and very very nice curry chicken awaits us.
Went home and sleep all the way till dinner time. Super Shiok lol!
Final day of Holiday. Went Church and than to ROBINSON EXPO Sale!!
Baby R so sweet la, paid for my steve madden shoes and two more pair of sandals. I love Robinson Sale lar, there is really alot more stuff there than lousy Metro sale. Robinson Sale usually has lotsa good brands. Imagine Steve Madden shoes, Nine West, Aldo and umm haha Espirit.
Went for lunch n than... LoL
Head straight home to sleep all the way till Dinner Time. In overall, I was truly well-rested during this holiday break. Hahaha.
R cooked laksa for us again, last week attempt failed as the soup was a little diluted. This week BESt!
See! Got LotSa ingredients, LotSa Mee and Delicious Thick Gravy!
So proud of 老公, mus 疼 him more.
