Catastrophic

GOSH GOSH GOSH.

Recruiter: Where are you from?

Smart-ass me: Penang!

Recruiter: Really? My husband's from Penang too!

Smart-ass me with the fabulous remark: Everyone's husbands from Penang!!!!!

I should be BARRED from speaking when I am sleepy!!!!!

And I know no one's husband's from Penang!

Cut the Extra

I need to slim down! And tone up!

Festive Mood

I am in such a festive mood right now I feel like waving my arms in the air! *waves* I am going to meet my cousin and her family in a while, Darling and I are celebrating Valentine's Day next week (cost-effective) and I am going back to Penang for a week for CNY!

And somebody told me she thought I was 20 years old!!!!! (somebody needs to come up with the elixir of forever youth soon ...SOON..... my skin refuses to wait so long)

My sister looks like she has taken some kind of elixir and is not sharing it with me!! For heaven's sake, she is 34 (or was it 35?) and a mother of 3! She is far left by the way. Someone once thought she was still schooling. SCHOOLING!!!!!!

My mom looks adorable here! I love you mommy! Wo ai lu! :p

Motherhood

OOOOOOOO I just watched a the Tyra show on issues of motherhood and gosh, some of them sort of blame their babies for changing their lives! And body!

"My nipple felt like it was going through food processor all the time!"

That's on breastfeeding.

Cringe.

Food Processor.

Bit on Self

Right. I am going back to dance after a break since August. Pretty nervous about it actually but I am really looking forward to be back in the circle and most of all, to be able to dance!

In these few weeks, I have sort of made up my mind of what I want to do.

"The end point is the most important. It doesn't matter how you get there."

Which is why I want to be a Medical Sales Rep. I know it is going to be difficult, persuading the doctors and waiting for 100 hours for them to be available to listen to you before they snub you off. But I am strongly convinced that this is the way to THE point that I want to be.

Next on the list, I want to start a social enterprise. For a cause. But I can't quite make up my mind on which cause. Darn, I should spend more time researching on it.

On a different note,

"The couple went to great pains to conceal their relationship with reports that Khan had even been smuggled into Diana's Kensington Palace residence in London in the boot of her butler Paul Burrell's car."

Yes, Khan was also a former lover of the demised Princess Diana. Why can't they leave it as it is?

Self Prediction

For the year 2008, KN will graduate from SBS, NTU with a Second Upper Class with Honours in Biological Sciences with a minor in Business. She then clinches a position in Janssen Cilag as a Medical Sales Rep. She will start work in September and 3 months into work, she is already a top agent.

Before starting work, she will travel to Mexico with her boyfriend under the Global Summer Studies Programme and spend 4 glorious weeks around Mexico. As a side dish, she also makes a stop in LA and met up with her boyfriend's friends who shows them around. The rest of her time will be spent in sweet Penang with her loved ones.

In July, she will attend her school's convocation as well as the convocation ball, catching up with lost conversations with her pretty enstranged classmates. In the same month, she will rent a new HDB nearer to town, somewhere along Clementi and Redhill, and then moves in with her dear friend, Min. The little unit is cosy, equipped with a telly, gas stove and a washing machine. They will be looking into having a dog of their own. At the same time, she and Min will be handling the social entrepreneurship that they set up a few months back, raising charity funds for the cancer stricken people.

WOW. If only dreams and wishes come true. That would be mine for the year.

First Day

I brought my nephew to his first day in primary school. Boy has he grown. I still remember that 8-pound baby that he was 7 years ago. SEVEN.

He told me he was pretty nervous actually. :)


Gone are those wooden chairs that would "bite" your little butt.

I was looking through some letters and cards when I was back in Penang, and my mind goes... this one is from Shu-Wen 8 years ago, this one is from Chuen Fong 7 years ago, this letter is 11 years ago, this note is 10 years ago, this card is 5 years ago ... GOSH.

Where did all the years go?
