CONGRATULATIONS ONCE AGAIN TO MR & MRS ANDREW CHIN... MUAX MUAX


Choices...

Should you be able to choose for your other half? Would you wish him / her to be

1) Loud or Mute?
2) To speak his / her mind or To listen to yours and yours only?
3) Be able to hang out with his / her own friends or just stay home?
4) To be patient or impatient
5) To talk properly or just shout and all?

Tell me.. grrr

Have you ever
tried getting up on your own without having to lean on anything / anybody when your belly looks like a bloated balloon filled with lots of un-pressable pressure? If 22 weeks of pregnancy has already made me a woman depending on railings and people to lift me up to my feet.. *shudder* what would the 7th -9th month be like? Hmm.. now who wants to be my side partner / my walking tongkat beside me when we go out?

Time flies when we are having fun I guess.. I know I am.. enjoying every moment as his pregnant wife who walks around with her belly leading the way.. yeap, I can no longer see my two feet without having to bend a little more forward than any people but it feels great! Can't wait!!!

Emotional Rollercoaster

My tears welled up when I went into the bathroom in the morning... Why you ask...

I just sent my mom on a bus back to Penang... She needs to go home to check on things...

I do not know why my tears are streaming down non stop. I do not know why I am bawling like a baby.. what happened is just that my mom went back to Penang. Thats all.. its not as if she is not coming back but a sudden burst of emptiness took over me, crumbling me down as I turn my key and stepped right back home.


Hubby is sleeping and I do not think it is necessary to let him know how I feel at the moment. He might think me mad... but I guess the mother-daughter bond is too strong to be felt by others. Only the parent and child shares the same thoughts and emotions. Not to say my husband is not understanding but this is one thing that can never be taken away from my mother, my father or me.

My mother has come a long way, bringing me up, showering me with all the dedicated love that is left of her and caring for me like there is no tomorrow.

I so want to tell her that I love her really really a lot. My love for her know no boundaries and I would do anything to make her happy. It is time for me to show my duty as a daughter.. 23 years is enough for her to slough it out for me.. it is my turn now... *sigh*

Mama.. I am already missing you so bad..

Tell me, am I crazy to feel this way? Or is it normal? I know my mother would not want to see me in this state. Till the moment before the bus leaves, all she asked of me is to stay happy and healthy, to take care of my ownself.. not to worry about her.. She is just a call away and she will be back if I ask her to.. She just needs to go home to Penang to check on things..

**shit** Why can't I stop crying still... how do i continue to rest before hubby gets up and wants to get going -to the city and all for the weekend.. guess I will just wash my face and hope the cold water running down my face will cool me off this emotions... and I shall just hug my hubby to sleep.. my Big Bear whos fast asleep in dreamland..

Baby Yap

The ultrasound was wonderful. The amount of emotions going through you is such pure joy that one can only feel when one sees for themselves. To know that the little baby inside will soon be out in the world in about 4 1/2 months time makes my hubby and I so excited. The little baby was just happily moving around, flexing his strong little arms and those little fingers.. he -my hubby's and mine -our flesh and blood who is going to continue our family genes..

*sigh* Our little Baby Jaden Simon Yap.. yea, thats going to be our son's name if you are wondering if we have chosen a name..

Can't wait to welcome him into the world and shower him with lots of love.. the innocence of a child puts a smile on everybody's face.. don't you think so?

Evday is Mother's Day for my mommy! -part 1

What will I do without my mom?

Wake up feeling hungry? Well.. my favourite breakfast is on the table piping hot ready to be eaten..

Lunch? Got just a few veges & meat in the fridge? Have no fear! She can whipped up anything and make it delicious.

Tea? Share with her a laugh and you get to eat her favourite cake.. *wink*

Dinner? Three full course dinner, that is promised to make you full and happy..

Dessert? Freshly squeezed orange juice, served chilled.. sigh..

What will I do without my mom?

Yah.. i know, I am married but I am and always will be my mom's baby little girl and she will always be there for me no matter what.. so that is why she is one of the most important people in my life. Of course there are others, but Mom comes first, then Dad then my Hubby and Baby and Hubby's family..

Mom! I love you.. Happy Mother's Day!

Heartbroken

souls were everywhere last night. They roamed the town donning red jerseys, some were chanting curses at the blues. *sigh* It was rather a funny sight because where my hubbie, Gyn and I went was 96% full of them. I guess, when it was the extra time, at the 116' minute, the blues broke the red's heart. Not that it was a victorious feel for my hubbie and I as we are not supporters of both these teams but it was just plain fun to watch their hearts break. Sadistic eh?

Guilty & Hating it

I shouted today. I said things I did not mean. Stressed emotions took me over.

I hate ..in betweens.
I hate ...false accusations.
I hate .... being so angry.
I hate ..... being confuse over what lies ahead.
I hate ...... seeing her in such state.
I hate ....... arguments with people I love.
I hate ........ myself for what happened today.

Guilty as ever. Forgiving as ever. We both settled over ice-cream.

Dozing off

... is so hard for me last night. I guess the difficulties of pregnancy is starting to kick in part by part.

My whole right back was so sore, as if I just came back from some weight lifting exercise. Tried to put another soft support pillow to ease the comfortability -didn't help.

Tossing and turning trying to find the right angle to lift the soreness and suddenly i heard a
"Heeellooo".....

Miraculously, I fell straight into deep slumber. If only hubbie came in earlier to hello me.

Housewife role play 1

Finally one of the housewife's duty are slowly kicking in. Never knew that cooking for the husband could be kinda fun -as in you get to experiment with ingredients you never dared to. Why? Simply because he is now your husband and no matter what you do or cook, he has to take it all in and say Niceeeee.. =)

Two nights ago, i made jelly. Nothing unusual I know but its been years since I last made something like that out of the blue. So off I went to search for jelly moulds and the konyaku powder. Not a very successful first attempt at jellies for the husband. The comment -too pejal.. if he throws it on the floor, it would probably bounce right up but he ate it all alright.

Last night, I made him dinner. Fried Rice @ eMily's style. With a little garlic, lots of chilli padi, dried shrimps and chopped up bacon.. I must say, it is one of my signature dish. He loved it and ate the whole BIG plate without complaining he got too much for his own share.

This morning, I made him breakfast. Eggs ala eMiLy's style again with secret ingredients, fish fingers and bacon strips with some kicap hitam pekat. Nothing special you'd probably say but he ate it all down without saying anything.. just maybe the bacon strip tasted like some kerepek..

Wonder what I will be cooking next for him.. hmm.. I am starting to like this housewifey roles..

The Big Day


April 28th 2007 marked a very significant date in my life. My status as a single girl had changed to a married woman overnight. Everything happened very fast. It seemed like only yesterday when he was at the glass door waiting to be let in for his interview. Two weeks later, I heard he was hired and the rest is history. How we grew close is funny. I actually hated his guts yet I admired his determination, his smartass jokes. Lunch together became dinner. Dinner became movie dates and then, it became us.

April 28th 2007 also showed me my friends who loves me and were there for me –the prewedding (all the plannings and what-to-do and what-nots ) and during the wedding. It was wonderful to have people who loves you surrounding you. You know who you are. Some of them came from all over, sacrificing their leaves to celebrate this day with me. Some of them changed their flight just to make sure that one special day is for me and only me. Some of them rushed down on the very same day right after their work. I know all these are tiring and I really appreciate what you guys have done for me. Without you guys, the day would have felt a little empty. I LOVE YOU PEEPS!

It has been 2 weeks since the wedding. Married life is overrated it seemed. Our lives are back to normal routine, work, eat, sleep, work, eat, sleep.. an occasional outing with friends and back to work again. Just probably additional family members and family events to add on to our calendar and life. Remembering that now, not only you have your own parents to take care of, you have your in-laws too.

It was indeed the happiest day of my life at this very moment. Being able to be married to him is one of the best thing to happen to me. I am grateful that he is my hubbie and no one else.
