Merry Christmas!!! Ho! Ho! Ho!

Merry Christmas!!!

Today is Christmas! So fast!

Last nite's carol was great!! They sort of did a slide show and had a speaker read some line.. wow... It was great!!! Hubby says it was Fr. Yim doing the behind the screen reading... and upon closer listening. I think hubby is right! It was fanastic!!!

Today is gonna be a rather bz day for me. Gng to 1 of the forummer's hse. Coz he having his hse warming today in the afternoon. Heng, got sme other forummers come our hse then we can take their car and go to Vic's hse in Sembawang. Wisely & her hubby came, Eve and her hubby also came. Supposed to have Cheryl and her hubby too but last min caught doing something again so they not coming. Instead we all meet at Vic's hse later.

Saved our stomachs for the lunch.. hahaha.. so we din prepare anything for them to eat except drinks lor.

Vic's hse is so big!! Wow.. no wonder it is exec... i like his hall.. got space for cosy corner and his master bed rm.. also big leh... after putting in a King size still got lots of rm!! Spacious!

We din stay long there coz we are expecting my parents and sisters to come ov to our hse for dinner. So on the way back, we went to Yishun to pick up the food that we previously ordered at Cold Storage. Heavy leh!! Never knew that a chicken, a ham, sausagges and 2 bottles of sparkling juice will be so heavy!!! Gosh.. Heng hubby was there. I was prepared to go and pick it up myself!!

Once back, took a quick shower, rest a while and then to work liao. Though the food is cooked, still need to heat it up lar.. coz i dont think my guests appreciate cold food.. On top of that, I also made some potatoe salad and pasta in case the food not enough. Turns out, MORE than enough.

1st time they having dinner at my plc. Was fun.. chit chat and laff at my mother... she so sua ku... hahahahaha.. They brought fruits over so after dinner, we had fruits and i also had almond jelly with longan.. so they had that too.

I thought we cld just stay there for a longer evening and chat lor.. since really no chance to do it... but I also dont know good or bad.. MIL called and say tat her sisters (my now new aunties in law) want to come over to our plc.. when my parents and sisters heard that, they say they leave lor... abit of a bumber lor... sigh...
anyway, they did leave and in an hours time, the aunties came over with their kids and hubby(s) even grandma came! Wow.. surprise.

They quite ok lar... the aunties and uncles sit there and chat.. What i dont like was tat 1 of the kids started jumping on my sofa!!! Sucks!!! Coz they not my side of the relatives, I cannot say anything.. so I just look at hubby lor. He like a block of wood!! Just stand there and din do or say anything!!! I so pissed.. But still hv to maintain the 'gracious' hosts and say nothing!!! Arggg.....

I hope CNY they not coming. Not coz i not hospitable. But coz i simply dont like kids to jump on sofas or beds!! If they behave, it's ok!

And i really wish PIL will stop calling 1 hour in advance and then say the relatives are coming... But then again, maybe this is the 1st year we got married and they've never seen our lovenest so they are all eager to look and c. If's tat's the case, then i wish they will do it to all my BIL! Fair mar. =)

Few mre hours to Christmas! =)

In just a few hours time, Christmas will be here! So exciting!

This is the 1st Christmas that hubby and me are spending as husband and wife. =) We were wondering if we should go out and eat, buy something special home to eat or to cook. In the end, laziness win, we just went downstairs to the coffeeshop, bought a spring chicken to share with some drinks. Simple, no frills and fancy dinner.

Earlier today was a horriable experience. Coz we were lazy, so we delayed gng to Pine Gardens to take the cakes that we had ordered for Godma and Bro. By the time we reach there was like 10 mins to 5pm. So after we gave the order form to the boss, we waited for some1 to come out with our cakes and we can then go.

Horrors.. the wait turned out to be almost 1 hour!!! It was so irriating!!! The shop was cramp, hot and small!!! N on 1 cld tell us y we waited and waited and waited. I wanted to scream and shout and kill some1.. but having the thoughts tat Christmas is rnd the corner, I hold all my thoughts and just wait... and hah! Finally the cakes came out. The boss told us coz 1 of the cakes was short of 1 mini log so they got to bake it then and there. I hope it tastes even nicer lor since it is so fresh! hrmph... =(

Went hm.. bathe and had the spring chicken dinner. Halfway, Godma came to my plc with our christmas presents. hee... she bought us a lovely small fruit cake a nice halter top for me... and u know wat?? She's kinda naughty this year.. she bought me a VS hot pink panty too... hahahahahaha.. shd come in useful if we need sme species in the bed rm.. hahahahahahaha

After dinner, settled dw to watch TV and later will be gng off to midnight mass in church. The moment the mass starts, it will be Christmas!!

Pre Christmas celebrations =)

Today is the last Friday before Christmas. Time flies by so fast and in just a matter of hours, we will be celebrating the "birth" of Christ. Yeah, "birth" coz it is not the actual birthday of Christ, but just a day that the church has placed aside to symobolise it. What a bumper when I firt knew it! All along, I was thinking, wah... Christmas, Birth of Chirst.. But then again guess that my 1 year of Catacheism class has clarifiy it.

Anway, yest in office (after I came back from accompanying my granny to the hospital) there was a Christmas lunch celebration. Kinda early for Christmas coz now I am back at my puter and working away. But no choice lar.. Good lunch! We had, ham, sandwich, char bee hoon, soup, garlic bread and also home baked cake. Sounds like a feast ya?? Well, it is!

Then after the yummylicous lunch, we had a gift exchange. Was fun.. In the end I got an elephant shaped CD pouch and also a box of chocoloates. Not sure if it is tasty though too full from the lunch to eat right away.

And tonite there will be another feasting, coz having dinner at YWCA, this time is the RCIA Christmas dinner. So many of my own class ppl are not gng.. Sian.. but nvm lar, since we paid up we go and enjoy ourselves. Anway it is for fellowship and to just have a good dinner together. =)

tummy not comfy

Just came back from a good lunch at Silzzers (don't know how to spell) as a farewell lunch for Paul since he is joining a MOE school. Either I am suffering from indegestion or the stomach flu is here to pay a visit again.

Tummy is aching, not a lot but just uncomfortable. There is also a dull ache on the left side which at times seem to 'move' to the centre and back to the left.

Done some santarina work today as well. And I got presents too! hahahaaha Quite fun lor but a broke event. There will be another round tml when my current dept celebrates Christmas with a good lunch (again!) and then gift exchange. Peeping at the tree, think there are many many presents and the excitment kinda builds up coz I'm wondering which 1 will be mine tml at this time. =)

And sucks.. tml I hv to go to the hospital with my grandma and aunt for grandma's check up. It's abit out of the way lar.. and I got to take leave. So sian. But I guess not much of a choice also lor.

Here I am sitting, blogging and feeling sleepy. Later there is a mad hse meeting at 3 pm. No 1 will be there to sms me. Think I will sure fall asleep. Chiam liao lor.. How to stay awake?

Shop shop shop.... Shop till i drop

Today is the brand new day of MNG sale.. I want to go too!!! But sucks.. I'm being stuck at work starring at this screen and can only dream of shopping in MNG. I know that there will be throngs of crowd at MNG. But I still wanna go...

Pity, I cannot even go after work later coz we hv the Penitential Services in CTK so no chance to go shopping. Then tml there is RCIA again and there will be even more ppl in MNG so still cannot shop. *Sigh*

I want to shop, to buy things for christmas, to buy clothes and just to spend $ and enjoy myself but cannot coz no time to go and also no $ to spend.

It's so irriating to want to spend and cannot! Here sitting her and just lament about it! And no chance to go and do something about it!!! Argg!!!!!!

Shopping loses it's fun when u got to keep watching ur wallet and expenses and credit cards... sigh... At times like this, i really wish i hv a super rich man!!! How then can get a rich man?? I think in this lifetime no chance liao... coz... me *sigh* already married a not rich man.. and in the eyes of God... there is no backing out lor..

Depresed for not being able to shop
Double depressed for no $ to shop

Grandma's jaw drop.. literally!

Shd I start pressing the panic button coz my grandma's jaw drop and is now in hospital??! I think it's not anything too serious coz her jaws literally drop v often... hai... this comes from being not having enough calcium??

N in the last few years, it happened many times. She's like in and out of the hospital coz of jaws... But I think it is not tat serious coz she will be discharge this afternoon...

I don't know if it is 'pre-arranged' that I am on afternoon leave or what but so happens that she is being dischared and that my auntie called saying that she wants to reach my youngest sis and there is no 1 there to help her coz she is not eng ed... so i volunteered to go with her. Is it the Holy Spirit calling her to call me or what?? My goodness... I don't helieve that she don't have my youngest sis hp no! It is not by concidience that she called me or that I am on half day... (BTW, I am on half day coz I was thinking of gng hm to clean up and then rest and then cook a simple dinner for my friends who are coming ov for dinner tonite)

Just yest, I was talking to a colleague abt how my grandma lost lots of weight and became v frail after falling ill a couple of years back and today the same person that I mentioned needs help.

God really has a strange way of working and moving things. I was wondering if I shd go n c grandma since I got bonus, is a good time to go n at least take a look at her.. n now.. no need to wonder and think anymore.

I really don't believe that this is a concidience that all these happened of all days today.. Though it sort of changed my plans that I had... I guess this is what God want me to spend my half day.... so I just follow lor... I'm sure that the call was placed to me for a reason and that by saying 'Yes' is the right thing to do and not just say '小妹去了学校' and hang up.

IwanttogoHongKong!IwanttogoHongKong!!IwanttogoHongKong!!!

I want to go Hong Kong!!!!

Enough said right??!!! I desprately need a holiday and where else better to go than HK with the newly open Disney Land???

But now is mad hse period cannot take leave (anyway, I have no leave to take anyway) so no choice.. got to slog..

I want to go shopping and eat and c all the new things n nuah there leh!!! Arggg...

Bady Mood!!!

Last night, hubby made me upset. And coz we did not resolve it before we both went to bed, guess it explains the bad mood today! The "badness" of my mood just seem to spil over lor.

So many things happened but no mood to write! Argg...

I won't say yest was a cold day, I will say it is a cloudy day n hubby got to sneeze n sneeze, granted it was rather cold in the church but he din really sneeze then.. when we were outside.. dusty??? NO!!! We were in the shopping malls! Aiyoh.. cannot stand it!

Then in the shops... he made so ngiow remarks abt the presents that we are getting... aiyoh.. v v irriated.. i was trying to keep it under ctrl and not to loose my temper!

Then at hm, he was busy setting up the clothes hanger that we got while i went to keep the food n items that we bought. After doing all these, I went to bathe n hubby was vaccumming the floor. Good that he was helping.

Then after bathing he was just sitting on the sofa while i was folding clothes n the plastic bags.. but gosh!! He nv even raise a hand to help till i told him to. N meanwhile sneeze n sneeze again. I told him if cold wear a shirt n he told me he's hot!

GOsh... and his reaction was like 10 seconds delay?!! WhateverI said got to say twice before he heard me... I feel like a parrot or an answering machine!

Argg... worse.. when i want to talk he say he sleepy 1 2 sleep!!! Gosh.. is this how our communication is gng to be like!?!!?

all major blessings done!

Whew... had my hse blessed by Fr Yim last Sat.. yar yar.... LAST Sat and I'm only blogging it now... Abit late right. Yes, yes I know.. but for the whole week I was trying to get into the mood of blogging after so long.. so finally, after a long break, I manage to get my fingers on the move again. =)

We invited a few friends over + our Godparents, Brother Daniel, his family and even my PIL came. My PIL actually gave us a bit of a shock earlier prior to the hse blessing. FIL called up and asked us if it's ok if sme other relatives come with them. I agree, it was v swt of him to call and ask but it was still a shock to us coz we already have about 15 ppl in our hse. N with them it will be more than 20! wow...

Anyway, Father came on time, he was like here at about 7.30 pm or close to 8 pm lar... then most ppl were already here so just sit around and wait for my Godma and her family to come over from CTK lor.

PIL came ov at this moment and then FIL kept coming up to me to say take water for them, pour water for them... ok lar. I know I must do that lor.. Just that when he keeps doing it then abit irriated... n I also not v close to them... Don't even know to address them! Can call hubby mar.

FIL brought them to c c here c c there open here n also abit of open there.. i not v upset lar.. but find it rather amusing... think he want to appear tat he has ctrl over me in front of his relatives ba? Coz whenever he comes here, he won't do that, but that day they did.. hahahahahahaha

When Father started the prayers, I think they left the hse and stood outside. Not sure if it's cause too crowded or coz they not comfortable.. but we were too bz to entertain once the prayers start lor..

I was so afraid that there were not enough food for all.. but thank God, just nice.. heng ar.. we order pizza (as usual) then tapow BBQ wings coz like not enough and then i made some potatoe salad and almond jelly longan... my friends say nice.. so means not bad lor.. hahahahhaaha so happy..

Last Sat was the 3 Dec when we have our hse bless... and exactally a yr ago, hubby and me ROM on the same day... v fast. Time really fly by v fast. So fast, 1 year gone. I still remember that evening, when we went for our RCIA class... our dear friends arrange a surprise for us, to help us celebrate our ROM and it so happens that the lesson for that day was on the scarament of marriage.. wow... But a year has pass, good things happen and bad things happen too... the same grp of dear friends.. though we physically see each other the "good feelings" are sort of smeared by some hurts that I have unwittingly given them. Though we have told each other our thoughts, feelings and hurts, the friendship still seemed to be strained. I will do my best to salvage the friendship and my dear friends assured me that all things will start from fresh! =)

Hubby quite sweet.. he gave me a single stalk bouquet for our ROM anniversary (but, of course is me who say no flowers again and again lor.. hai...) but i also learned it.. better than nothing lor.. He drew me a card too.. like children's drawing.. hahahahahaha

Took some shots.. but having problems in the IR of my PC and hp.. when I have the chance will put up lar. =)

Today is already Fri.. v fast, another week gone, 1 mre week closer to Christmas and RCIA night again.. somehow, I no longer have the energy nor am I looking forward to RCIA as much as I used to anymore.. Maybe coz the cats till this moment in time are still v v individual.. sad sia..

Hubby will be missing RICA coz he has dinner with his counterparts fm US. Ever since he change jobs, he has been eating well leh. Tim Sum's, seafood, meals at the revolving restaurant and tonite in CHIJMES.. wow wow...

We more or less have settled into our marriage life but definately there are still some ups and downs and tiff are normal.. but I think it's normal =)

Finally finally... I'm HIDDEN!

Gosh! Guess, I am quite what's that term? "IT idiotic"?? hahahaha.. shame on me man, I was an Engineering student and during the course of my studies did take some modules on puter and IT modules!! hai.. wat a waste of resource to go in and to grad from the course!

But! After trying and finding out and bugging Trina non stop, finally I am hidden from ppl!! And before i go on and on.... I must say that hidden as in not listed on the blogger links or watever u call it.. now Hoorray.... Guess it will stop unwanted readers.. n even hubby won't know what link I hv changed mine too..haha... n why was I so darn scared of ppl reading?? Well... to cut the whole story was coz during 1 high powered meeting, 1 colleague says to find out students who blog and give her the links so that she will go in n read and then "help" the bloggers to write and re-word their entries... hm... with senstitive info in my blog, u can be super sure that I am NOT keen in having her read it! But then again, it was not a huge problem lar.. problme was, I was already getting lazy and stopped blogging for a long long time!

Somehow, was just not in the mood.. anyway... that aside, I am picking it up agian.. slowly but surely I am blogging now!

Chiistmas is rnd the corner and my office has just put up the tree yesterday, it looks pretty cool now, with the red and gold things hanging off the branches, complete with lights. I'm glad they did not have the kind that plays a christmas carol everytime the lights are on! It will be too noisy for our otherwise silent office.

A glass tree is being displayed at my own hm.. we bought it ov the wk end and gosh! U wont believe the price of the tree! It only costs us $29.90SGD complete with the small glass ornaments that hang off the tree and 2 AA batteries. It's really pretty but me and my clusmy fingers broke 1 of it on the same night that we bought it! GOsh!!! Really felt like banging myself then! But hubby was v nice and swt, he just say nvm lor.. n he tease me saying.. the tree was not broken by our kids but by me.. hm... sometimes i really really wonder how he manages to c the funny side of the things.. if we were in reverse situations, hubby wld have been v v badly lashed out by me... hm.... I think I really got to keep my temper in check and learn fm hubby how on earth does he do it!

And ohhhh...... talking abt trees, there's a huge live tree in CTK! I've nv seen or touch a realy live tree and boy was I excited over it! Hahahahahaha.. the tree is so pretty!! N it smells fresh! Smells of pine! (obviously! anyway!)

Heard that it was a donated tree.. wow.... costs more than $800... and the tree when I saw it on Friday nite... wow wow... sparkling with golden balls, ribbons and lights... the ornaments are just nice, not too much but enough to make the tree really pretty. Took some pictures too but sucks the stopid puter can't read my IR.. *sigh* got to wait till I go back to the old office and play with the PC that Teck set up for me to use.. hai..

too lazy to even Blog!!

Don't know y, ever since the fun fair in CTK, I'm just feeling so lazy to blog.. once a few months ago, I would be eagerly waiting for my dear neighbour to turn on his/her labby or wait till I come to office to blog down every single thing.

Guess, it's the life that I am leading to make me become so miserable?? hahahaha.. Don't think hubby will be too happy to hear about it though. Life is really soooo predictable! Morning wake up, freshen up, bathe, prepare bf, make up, sit dw bf wif hubby then go off to work. Then work n work for a few hours a day then after tat go hme... either to PIL or my parents' hm or my own home.. Nothing changes.. hai...

Or it cld also be coz of the high energy level tat was used up during the wedding prep that I find my evenings so boring and useles??

Whatever is the reason, christmas is rnd the corner, better start getting sme festive cheers into my life!!!

tired & confused

Yesterday, we celebrated the annual Feast Day of Christ the King. This year, we had a fun fair for the children along with all the usual fan fair of the various food stalls, the games and also the stage peformances.

Since I don't know when, hubby and I are in the children's fun fair committee.. After weeks of planning and finally 'THE' day was yesterday. We set up the necessary on Sat. So as you can already guess, my Sat and Sun was spent in church. I must say it was for a worthwhile course but gosh... tiring leh!!! Not just tiring, at the end of the day, hubby and I went hm each with a pair of luminious pink hands! Mine was brighter than hubby's coz i kept dipping my hands into the pool of coloured water. Gosh..

Thank Goodness, Yi Yeeng, told me to use lemon to wash off and well, the colouring has gone off a fair bit but my fingernails are still bright pink! I shd have used brown yesterday and I cld have hanna "tatoo" hands man. hahahahahaha

Thought it was fun, but it's just like another event like the OH in my opinion. Something which is to be done once a year and not any more often than that! We were dead tired after it...

Went hm, took a bathe, did soem light hse work and we took a nap. So tired!! Then we were woken up by a phone call and then up we got, hubby was helping me to prepare dinner and also to watch TV at the same time.. But we had a simple dinner, just pasta. N we settled dw to watch Da Vinci Code on TV. Nice show... not that I believed Dan Brown's words but it makes it so much clearer to have a documentray produced and we cld get the facts from there.

Watched abit mre TV and I was so tired that we went off to bed at 10 pm.. and we were dead to the world. So tiring.. gosh..

This morning, hubby had to wake up at 5.40 am.. coz he needs to reach office at 6.45AM!!! Gosh... That's the time i need to wake up! I knew he was awake but I was too tired to even wake up. I continued to slp till it's time for me to wake up... Hubby is swt, he actually told me he loves me before he left the hse =)

This evening, we will be gng to PIL's plc for dinner, haven't seen them for mre than a wk! Last wk we were so bz that we had no tme to go back, today, we made it a pt to go hm for dinner at least pay them a visit. Now tat younger BIL had an op, we also can go n take a look at him.

Smsed him earlier, he says he is ok except that he is in pain. What else right? It's an op!!

I'm sure FIL tonite will have lots of things to tell me, not that I mind just that, sometimes I wish he will not say so much while we are watching TV. But then again, we seldome see him. So besides telling us when he sees us, when else right?

Hm.. somehow after being married, I seem to be mre appreciaitive of the times when my own mum wants to talk to me. Like, I can understand y she say things that she did at that particular time... though at that time I was fumming.. now I seem to be able to accept it better. Guess, after being married, not staying together will help to lessen the impact and truly - absence makes the heart grow fonder...

A few mins before 1 pm, my dad called me... strange that he does not use the home phone to call me but rather, he uses his hp to call me. I wld not have expected anything else. He called to ask me how come his retirement $ is not in the bank yet. Seems like he is hell bent on gng to China.
Hai... how i wish I can just slap him awake and tell him not to go.. but I know I cannot. I wish his acc does not have enough $ for him to take out. At least he has some pocket $ when he grows older.

I don't know y is he so hell bent on gng to China, I know that he is gng with is oldest sister, but hey, they do not have a good reputation, so why is he still taking the chance to go with them. There's so many things that I do not know and do not understand.. but again, I have to have the faith and that God will not let me carry a cross that is too heavy for me. At the moment I don't know what to do with this cross... I don't want to carry it - and I am behaving like a spoil brat, I don't have the energy, the strength & wisdom to carry it - but the Lord will give me just enough to see the whole thing thru!

Another thing is this OH biz.. hai.. been arrowed to do something which is something that I have nv done before... and I have to admit, it is getting scary... but again, as I come to it, it will be resolved coz the Lord will not leave me hanging...

Disappointment...

It was such a disappointment!!! The mega block buster of the year that I was waiting for the whole year long turned out to be such a disappointment!!!! Argg... I can almost cry as hubby & I walked home this morning (12.33am) after the movie!!!!

My gosh.. the movie started off quite ok... with the scene where the old caretaker was at the hse, saw a light and went to the old Riddle hse to take a look and he met Voldemort, Wormtail and the Barty Crouch junior. He died as according to the book as well - the deadly Avada Keda curse. But but Potter is supposed to wake up at his Uncle's hse not at Ron's place!!! Argg... then he is supposed to be fetched to Ron's plc by Mr & Mrs Weasley!!! They had a marvelous time with the Dursleys!! This was gone too. This is the 1st time tat Ron's family met Potter's relatives.. and ALL gone! Argg..

Then it's after a night of good food and laughter that all settled for bed and had to wake up brigt & early so as to go to the worldcup using the portkey.. parts of it was missing! The book also has the part where the ministy of magic was trying to keep the muggle from knowing too much, there was a guy who came up to collect bets, an old muggle whom Authur Weasley had problems with the $.. arggg!!! ALL NOT HERE!!!! =(

The match! oh man.. the match, there's supposed to be great flying by the 2 world cup teams where Krum got the snitch but his team lost, the cheering teams, the leprechuns and the veelas.. all gone!!! The show was just showing Krum and the next moment, end of the match! Then suddenly the noise that created unrest. In the book, all of them were supposed to be sleeping and then the noise was heard! The deatheaters were also playing with the muggles, where they make them float in the air and Harry with his friends were supposed to be lost in the forrest! Not in the ruins of the tentages! There is supposed to be the appearance of the hse elf, Winky which led Hermoine to set up the S.P.E.W! All not here as well!!!

The Kpo Rite Seekter was supposed to cover the story and it's supposed to come out in the daily profet, Molly was in great distress. But nope. The show.. nothing!

Then the appearance of the other 2 magic schools... their entrance is not while Prof Dum is making his speech! They came when the whole sch was supposed to welcome them. But I must admit the appearance of the 2 schools was exactly the way the book descriped it! Nice and magical and wow... impressive! hahahaha

I guess these are small things which the producer think can miss out.. in a way yar lar.. not really impt.. but I feel there are somethings which must be elaborated on! Like the Barty Crouch's son - Junior Barty Crouch, he was sent to Akzaban. How did he come out of it? How come he was prof Moody? How come Senior Barty Crouch was lying in the woods? All these are acutally clues and impt for the understanding of this show! But none was elaborated. Even after being forced to drink the truth potion, JBC was not given the chance to elaborate his escape fm Akzaban! And he was supposed to be performed "the kiss" by the dementers!!! It din happen as well!!! Arggg!!!

And the wands, the wands!! When Voldemort and Harry fought, their wands coz being made fm the same core materials - Phoenix tail, are "brother" wands and will thus, refuse to fight each other, but being forced to fight, 1 wand will repel the other wand, forcing the other wand to reverse it's magic that it had perform and in this case Voldemort's wand was being repel and forced all the killings that he had done to appear in the chrolonigical order. This was mentioned in the show but not much! And I think most of the viewers don't know...

There's so much things missing from the show. But I think it's coz of time. If the show were to go on too long and like the book, then I think I will still be in the movies now..

I feel this show, unless you have read the book, know the story, if not, you don't know what was being left out nor what you have missed.

I'm so disappointed with this show. I feel that there are more things which should have been put in.. the match for 1, the 1st task as to how the other 3 champions battled the dragons, the 2nd task in the water was quite well done and the 3rd... they have also missed out snippets of the 3rd task where Harry and friends were in the maze. Harry came to a spinex.. and hai.. missing fm the show. JBC and his escape fm Akazban, the dementers, Winky the hse elf... even in the book, there's mre being said from the penseive!!!

And the actor who play prof Dum.. hai.... he also another 1... he lacks the former actor kind of authority.. He has neither the quiet authorative and kindly prof that Harry has taken a respect for... So unsuitable for this guy to be the prof Dum!!!!!

All in all, the show is watch for effects... and if you have not read the book, *sigh* don't think you can catch what is the show doing... missed out too many details.. and after the show will be like.. huh? Y this, Y that...

Soooooo disappointed! =(

Harry... Potter

Tonite.. we are gng to catch Harry Potter... after such a long wait, finally the show is out!! Gosh.. can't wait.. but the show is at 9.50 pm. So late!!

I just want to watch now!!! Argg.. another hour before it's time to go hm..

Busy evenings

I thought that after the wedding, our evenings will be so much quieter and not so many things being lined up.

This week is another one of those whole week busy kinda week. Last evening was the only time where hubby and I are free and lazing at home! But, we din laze too much also. The moment I reached home after gng to Prime supermarket to get some veg for dinner, immediately started preparing dinner. All the way till hubby came back, then we settle down and after dinner, coz I forgot to order a Bday cake for EM, so we went downstairs. By the time, we had our bathes, it was already 10 mins to 10pm! Gosh... where did all the time go to??

This evening, hubby is hositing the monthly prayer meeting for the RCIA at our hse. So again, I got to dash back, cook dinner (tonite will be pasta in mushroom sauce, potatoe salad and soup from yesterday). Goodness knows what time the meeting will end but I think it should be around 10pm as well. Since it is just pasta, maybe I can go hm vaccumm the floor and then do dinner... Hopefully hubby can go off on time, if not by the time he reach home will be 8pm, how to be ready for the meeting? When it starts at 8pm as well?

Tml, is thank God, we are gng back to my parents' hse for dinner! And yippee... tml night, we are gng for the Harry Potter movie.. it is a sneak preview.. so I am really excited abt tml night!!

Thurs night, my colleagues will be having dinner at my place. To make things simple, it will be pasta in tomatoe sauce and potatoe salad with green salad as well.. We also will be celebrating EM's bday, that's when the cake we ordered last night will come in. =)

Friday, as usual is RCIA night.

Sat, is props set up day, got to reach CTK by 3pm and do all the set up for the feast day on Sunday. So there goes my Saturday.

Sunday, CTK Feast Day!! Got to be in church by 7.30am.... till it ends which will be 3.30pm (officially closes) But with the cleaning up and goodness knows what.. Gosh... think it is gonna be a tiring Sunday.

Hubby says Sunday nite, we go back to PIL plc for dinner, I think it is good coz I no need to cook, but after such a long day, cannot laze at home, not so good. Furthermore, that very evening, channel 5 is screening Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets! While another channel is showing "Da Vinci Code" so which should I be watching??!! =S I think most likely will be Da Vinci coz, we have the VCD for Harry Potter, does not matter if we miss the 1 on TV, anyway the 1 on TV has way too much commercials! If we are at PIL's plc, we cannot choose and FIL likes to chat while the TV is on... then I cannot watch!!!

Soo there you are.. with all the busy evenings and shows to catch on Sunday evening... busy busy busy isn't it?

Feeling fat!!!

Last nite after a whole week, we went back to my mother's plc for dinner. I think even though my sisters and mum din say it out loud. I think they kinda missed me.. hahahahahahaha

Coz the moment I went back, the hse is "full of life" the hse "woken" fm it's slumber. Think yest was the noiesiest time in the full week! hahahaha

Well, hubby and me sat down to a good dinner of curry chicken and my fav corn soup! I like corn soup. Tasty! Yum! Yum! Must learn how to cook it so next time, I can cook it for myself. Just that I think it takes some time to cook this soup, if not, I can make it in the evenings when I come home lor.

Once we sat down, my fats spill over and my mother wasted no time in telling me that I have grown fat.. hai... even my youngest sister says the same. But then agian, since when do they ever say that I have lost weight?

Nvm lar, now that the wedding is over, put on weight also not as horriable as it used to be then! hahahahaha

Ok.. gtg, go hm cook dinner for hubby.. tonite's menu will be stir fry chicken wings, nuggets, light soya sauce veg and soup. All chicken.. hahahaha.. better than nothing lar.

Tata..

silly old man

Silly old man trusts his evil sister so. So much so that he ignores the rest of all voices who speaks up.

And where does this sister brings him to? To china for biz.. and wat biz.. metal biz. Lying to him that her youngest daughter and son in law will work with him to do to biz, but little known to him that they are getting divorced..

Just when he is retiring this "perfect" biz opportunity comes up and with a magic wave of hands, tells the silly old man these:"all the things and prepartion are done, all you need to do is come wif ur retirment $ and we can be the best of partners."

Silly old man believes them, quits his job, leaves his family and off to China he flew. Ignoring the cries and advices of all who cares.

Pity for the family who fears what lies ahead.. but things will work out to God's divine plan. God's divine plans.

And who is this silly old man? "Pa pa" is his name to me. =(
