2. buying my favourite cherry yoghurts for me from the supermarket at great world city.
3. waking up earlier than me everyday to make breakfast because i am no morning person.

and other things more.

we are back from alila cha-am. it was nice that some of the staff recognised us from back in May. the weather was fine too and we went to town and had chicken wings and beer at the same bar. i enjoyed very much the nights we had dinner and a bottle of wine. we lay on the deck chairs and fell asleep in the dark, the stars being so visible above.

and dear husband i had a nice time with you sitting by the pool talking, sitting by the beach talking, sitting at the restaurant talking, watching tv and talking, sitting on the shuttle bus talking, sitting on the plane talking, sitting outside the room on the wooden bench talking. you're a great friend!i like you alot!

and i am back and i have a nephew! i'll visit da jie and baby tze ern this weekend.

today i am at alila cha-am! i just received an sms from da jie. today i am gonna be an aunt!

hello love. i miss you even though you are in the next room sleeping. this morning i thought about your voice and how i really liked to listen to your voice through the phone when you called me in jc. i can listen to you talk forever.

the end.

old skool



present for my love. thanks jie.

sisters and mothers



this post is dedicated to my two older sisters who will become mothers very soon.

My mom is a neverending song in my heart of comfort, happiness, and being. I may sometimes forget the words but I always remember the tune. ~Graycie Harmon

Being a full-time mother is one of the highest salaried jobs... since the payment is pure love.

You may have tangible wealth untold;
Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold.
Richer than I you can never be --
I had a mother who read to me.

i know they will make great mothers because they made fun, awesome older sisters. and we had a wonderful, beautiful, fun mother.

how many mothers do you know, took five of her young children on a bus to the beach and we played with sand and logs and ran in the grass, and who sat each of them at the window sill away from everybody else, between the curtains and the night sky and talked to them like adults

too hot sat

last saturday we made pancakes. i added butter and blueberries to mine - the sourness with the sweetness of maple syrup is lovely.




yesterday was ee lin and force's birthday in the office. i went to get TWG tea for ee lin - the packaging is so beautiful and the flavours sounded so exotic.



this morning i met with brenda, sharon and samantha for brunch at jones the grocer at dempsey hill - such a nice relaxed vibe to the place for meeting up with friends. i like that. yesterday i bought some flowers - crysentamums and roses. i liked the roses initially cos the looked like dried roses with the faded look but they look like they're dying by the minute i dunno why. but these crysentamums are super cute. they remind me of the characters in the computer game little big planet.

swim


today i finally went swimming at my pool. it wasn't that bad once i got past the initial cold. i did twenty short laps. i shall do this more often because it's too late at night to jog and it's too early in the morning cos i leave for work so early. and i am glad it helps relax mingyao's muscles too.
