It really is all about them now :)

Felix Teoh Zhen Wei

Not happy.

Me: *exorcist vomiting*.
Next morning.
Me: I want kuih kak.
J: No. No parking.
:(

Papa and Mama waiting...

Felix Teoh... one day you will read this post. Please take note that your father and I would wait 3 hours to see a Doctor to see a blur black and white photo of you for 3 minutes. You better be a good boy.

56 more days!

That's the number of days I have before my due date, (assuming I don't opt to induce the baby or have the baby early) Yikes!

We have not crossed off anything from our to-buy-for-baby list yet. We cleared the area in our room where we plan to have baby sleep today though. :)

I love feeling his little kicks and wriggles in my tummy, but I don't feel like a mummy yet. I have some battle wounds already but I still feel like a kid too. I hope he looks like his Papa.

The Lazy, Arrogant And Uneducated.

I have had quite a recent bout of awful luck and had to encounter all 3 in 3 separate nasty incidences with 3 individuals I've had the ill fortune to bump into, deal with briefly and deal with for far too long. I am glad to be a Buddhist as I can always console myself knowing that these 3 deserve what they are going through now and will only have much much more to go.

Ah my love, my iPhone

How do I love thee. Let me count the ways...

Taking the Phi-ss.

Today, J was looking at my older entries and got me looking through some of them too. I forgot so many of them!

I came across my old '08 entries on Phi Phi Island, and they've got me thinking how bad the island now is. :(

Tonsai Bay (don't believe Google Images) - I renamed Pangsai (Hokkien for Shit) Bay. The whole stretch was littered in crap!

Bamboo Island - Jason and I actually screamed in the Public Toilets. Every cubicle had something Freddy Krueger horrible in it e.g. used tampon in a soap dish.

Thai Hospitality - Apparently now reserved for Chavs/Chavettes from the UK who spend 80% of the day stinking of beer. We saw two Chavettes smoking knee deep in the sea, then one Chavette actually runs up to the beach to put out her cigarette. With. Her. Foot. She then topped it off by covering the cigarette butt she left behind with sand. Yup. Such class! The other Chavette probably just chucked her cigarrette butt into the ocean which would then float with the rest of the debris that you will find simply floating in the sea surrounding Phi Phi Island.

The Chinese Cometh - Yes, I'm a Malaysian of Chinese descent and therefore I should feel some kinship for them. But, no. No, I don't. I really don't. I felt like punching the locals who burst into Mandarin at me.

Never-endings.

I saw the series finale of Entourage yesterday, and I must say, dismal. How could it end like that? There was barely any chemistry between Vince and his Brit Fiancée. Very forced. I liked that Ari and wife reunited but the way E and Sloane got back together was really dodgy. I could envision their plane emergency landing somewhere in the Pacific Ocean cause Sloane decided that E sleeping with her ex-stepmother was as gross as it in fact is and decided to do a murder suicide.

Drama-Mama

I made one one of my many many many visits to the Babycentre website today and got all emotional cause I was watching a baby's progress video and realised that I'm already 25 weeks pregnant and felt sad that the past 24 weeks whizzed by and Baby's grown so fast... Yikes. Hormones kicking in at last? Really felt like I want to keep Baby in there.

Sucking Up

Sigh, one of the many things uni does not prepare us for is living in a the-client-is-always-right-world.

Today I experienced a I-wanna-shove-a-stick-as-wide-as-the-world-up-his/her-ass-client.

Ah well.. just have to suck it up. :(

Oh yes, forgot to add that I also had an AHA! moment when I realised Marnie from True Blood was Aunt Petunia from Harry Potter! At last understanding why I kept thinking Fiona Shaw looked so freaking familiar. Love how she has switched from anti-witch/wizard to witch.

More Pottermore Please!

Like any self-professed nerd would, I signed up for Pottermore with the very first of them.

After what felt like ages to a Harry Potter nut like me, I got my Welcome Email yesterday. I've spent 3 hours on the website already and whilst there is room for improvement (it is just in its BETA version after all), I'm so not even 0.001% done with my visit to the website.

Since one of my major fantasies/goals-in-life is to visit The Wizarding World of Harry Pottter in Orlando Florida and buy myself a wand, it is of course no surprise that my favourite thing about the website so far was the trip to Ollivanders - answer 7 questions and get your own wand. 

My wand is made of sycamore wood, has a phoenix feather core, 10 inches and is slightly springy.

Of course, the major attraction to Pottermore in the first place was the fact that the amazing Ms. JK Rowling is giving us lots of background on the stories.

The information she has provided on just the type of wand woods alone is freaking awesome. To think that she  could have chosen to make even more money by publishing a book "written" by Ollivander, just makes me worship her more.

As I'm a lawyer and am therefore terrified of being sued for the hassle it will most certainly entail, I'm not gonna cut and paste the information she has placed on her website regarding wand woods or cores. I just love it that sycamore wood wands combust if allowed to become "bored", which is so me. 

The day that I spontaneously combust in my office is surely on its way.

We so excited! We! We! So Excited!

The Big Bad Wolf Book Sale is baaaaaaack!

Earlier than last year! Only had to wait 10 months or so.

So excited to grab my little baby boy some soft toy books (I'll get books for 0-12 months cause ), and use my baby bump to guilt people out of my way. Do wonder if it'll be harder to carry my box with my belly in the way though.

Hahaha... no fear. I will plunder through anyway! I believe in the power of my Carebear pose. It has been effective in getting me parking spaces etc. when much smaller.

I think J will accompany me. JX is in... after his disappointing performance last year, I'm sure he'll be back for vengeance despite SPM a month later. Last year, the silly fellow went into too-many-books-don't-know-what-I-want-shock syndrome and got 3 books only. Hahahaa...

The Absentee Blogger Strikes Again!

It's been so long since I last blogged, I'm not even gonna try to excuse myself. Or am I?

Well since my last post, I have done the following:-

1. Got the keys to my new house.
2. Got a contractor and oversaw 2 months worth of renovations. This includes time spent picking tiles, fittings, wall colours etc. etc. (Hmm... why do I sound like I'm drafting a bill for my client?)
3. Got legally hitched by getting registered on 30.10.2010.
4. Had my wedding dinner on 21.11.2010. This includes having all my little pre-wedding dramas.
5. Had my first home break in. Lost my laptop.
6. Machine washed my 500gb external hard drive without losing any files! (I'm still using it, please bow to the power of Western Digital. Once it dried up after a month or so, it was good to go.)
7. Celebrated CNY in Penang with J's family for the first time ever.
8. Learned how to make Teoh Chew Kuan Chen.
9. Turned 28.
10. Got knocked up. :)
11. Puked for 2 months via mouth and nose. (No, not sexy.)
12. Thought of lots and lots of girl names... and found out I'm having a baby boy! 
13. Celebrated J turning 30 today!

So, I think its fair to say that I have excused myself, non?
