Babies
Why is it that married couples MUST have a baby FAST???? Every single one of the people (friends, relatives and including aqunatines I just know) also ask, When u having a baby? So is having a baby really a part of married life?
Excuses like, 'it's easier to give birth young', 'next year is a good year to have babies for your horoscope', 'jus give birth to one first, then decide'.....
Even the government is hurrying people to have MORE babies, but did they factor in the cost. When I mean cost, it is not only the cold hard cash, also opportunity cost. (My JC Econos teacher must be proud of me, cause I still remember :-p) The opportunity cost of employability of mothers. Maybe it is sexist, maybe it is the preception of the soceity, but females, especially married females with kids, will find it more diffcult to have new jobs.
So the next time u see me, don't ask me when I am having kids, cause when I have it, the stomach will show. Until then, DON'T ASK!!!!!!
Lazy Lazy Winter
Well feel sooooo lazy today. So went out for a simple dinner with JY. Had a rotten day at work, but still a nice dinner, so my day end well, right?
How I wish it is Oct now, so can look forward to my Bangkok trip and holidays.
Pig out weekend
Oopssss... I think I better start working out, before I need to change the whole closet of mine.
A very busy weekend, with little time to do housework and for my darling.
Fri - met up with Pauline, MH, Bao and Bay for dinner. I was late, because of work, and well, gossiping and discussing the upcoming excitement. And well, glad to see that everyone having a direction in their life. And for once, it is a all girls' outing... No 'XY' following along...
Sat - Went back to work in the end, cause of some @@$%^*&^$%$#@@#$%^^ last minute urgent leave, and well, just went back for 3 hours, but still, what a start for my weekend. At least lunch and dinner were good. JY took me out for both meals :-) No need to cook .... And then off we go to watch the last fireworks, the french team. Very nice, but as we were a bit late, didn't manage to capture a good video. What a pity.
Sun - Went out shopping with Mummy and Daddy and Brother. Well, felt like clock has turned back to 15 years ago, going out as a whole family, shopping and dinning, and of course, eating durian. Yummy! The only 2 differences are that Brother is the one driving and I am the one picking the tab. Well, all is worth it, as it has been a nice day. A pity JY is busy with work, and he couldn't join us.
So overall, my weekend isn't that bad. And it has been a nice break from housework :-p
Fireworks
JY and me went to watch the fireworks at Marina Bay on 5 Aug. Wow! It was majestic! We also went for the one on 8 Aug, and we recorded both.
In a way, fireworks is like life. Every fireworks have to go through months of preparation, testing, planning and brain storming, before it can be presented. It is just like life, everyone went through schooling, traning and experiences in life. And the most beautiful part of fireworks only lasted 15 mins. Some of the fireworks, never get lighted, due to some factors. It is similar to some people who reached the peak of their life and some don't. For those who did, the glory and success is only momentarily. Cause life will have to end for all people.
Fireworks is really beautiful and romatic, especially watch with the love of your life, but who knows the hard work behind this? And after a few months, will anyone remember the fireworks?
No matter how glorious, how glamourous, how successful a person is, once it is over, all is back to mother nature and the past is just memories. And who will remember the person? Families? Relatives? Or friends?
