Popin' Cookin' DIY Candykit

2012-02-15T10:58:00.000+08:00

For the past two nights, we've been playing around with Popin' Cookin' DIY candykit! It's so amazing and fun can! But quite expensive though...

This is the gummyland candy kit. Bobo, Raeann & Jing did it two nights ago!

These two same face ones, good can be very good, if not can quarrel and quarrel. =.=

The mess they made, haha!

It will turn out like the above and it's edible okay!

Then last night, i was home alone spending my Valentine's day with my two kids. Yes, laugh at me all you want, cos my hb no buy me Prada (Suddenly you're into Prada and not LV anymore? What a coinciLAN again! lol). But please don't think i'll be sad of my life, my life's awesome with my kids around!

And, i tried this Sushi candykit with Raeann!!!

The "rice"!

The "roe"!

Kpo girl helping!!!

This is super fun leh!!! Nice anot?? ZY said the roe looked so real! It's all inside Raeann's stomach liao, and her comment? (Watch the video below!)

Which is nicer??

Guess which one i bought? =)

Baking Fun @ Genius R Us

2012-02-14T10:18:00.001+08:00

Date : 11th February 2012, Saturday
Venue : City Square Mall

Bought the vouchers to attend this workshop one month ago from an online shopping platform, arranged to go with PY and Alexis! What i can say is, ALL of us had lotsa fun and buying this deal is no regret!

Yes, this is for the kids. But kids below 6 has to be accompanied by a parent, so both of us attended too.

Quite alot of kids & adults one leh!

We have to make this dough ourselves, thus explained why there's no pics before that!

So cute lah, they are stamping their little finger prints onto the dough!

Sweetie Alexis!

Need to force her to take this pic, don't understand why she doesn't likes to take pic?

Best friend now! I LOVE THIS PIC LEH!!! Taken by PY!

Friends since 13 YO and for life.

I realised, such friends (seldom contact but never forget) last. Those that meet up too often, especially big group seldom last. Seen too many good examples and experienced it myself too. I never like going out in big group one.

Moulded the dough and off to bake!

P/S : While waiting, i took all the pictures above!

Next, we were given this to decorate our cookies!!!

Haha, except the rabbit, Raeann played a part in decorating all the cookies. Cos her hands are too fast! She started anyhow dot on the cookie before i know. And some are purely done by her, the star is her best creation, i think.

Happy kid! =)

We brought back two boxes (12 cookies) back for the family. And you know, the cookies taste soooooooooo delicious! Even ZY, that most fussy eater in the family said so!

Aiya, looks like i can only go for this once! Cos hor, scally later see that CCFFWEMCJT there also. Aiyo!

As promised, i'm gonna intro you ladies one very nice online shop today! I've been a regular of this shop since hmm... 2 years ago? Even when i was pregnant with meimei, i still bought from them cos surprisingly, i could wear some of their dresses till the day i delivered! And i received nice comments from people that my 'maternity clothes' are very pretty (given them to ZY's friend already)! Haha! I didn't buy any maternity wear this time round. Cos 1) too ugly, 2) too expensive.

For your info, i was 71kgs on the day i delivered. =X (If calculated by the exact weight before pregnant at 48kgs, i putted on a total of 23kgs actually. But my weight fluctuated due to morning sickness and taking the prevent vomiting pills.)

But i bought my dresses from this shop at less than $30 each, great deal right? If you should know, i still stick to my 'below $30' rule when shopping for apparels, i don't own any branded apparels. But nowadays ah, online shops are getting more and more expensive. However, there are still shops offering good quality apparels at less than $30. HanaSecret is one of them! =) I find it meaningless to get those cheap cheap ones (below $20) but bad quality and you have to throw after wearing it for less than 5 times, if you get what i mean.

www.hanasecret.com

This is my current favourite black OL dress! I love this cutting alot, cos it makes me look slimmer. Hehe! Yes, i'm still FAT! =( So if you're fat like me, don't worry okay, we can fit into most their apparels!

P/S : You can wear a belt if you like! Up to your own preference! =)

www.hanasecret.com

You know, i can't help but feel so retard when i asked people to help me to take the pictures above. Cos i'm not a model lah, i don't know how to pose nicely in front of the camera and i find it weird? Haha! But well, i've to deliver what i promised, this is how you gain trust! =) And sorry, if they were badly taken!

Too much coinciLANs?

2012-02-12T14:30:00.000+08:00

Hmm... I really wonder why ah? Why coinciLAN ALWAYS happened AFTER I blogged? Not once. Not twice. But countless times.

When the same thing happened for countless times, how can it still be define as coinciLAN leh? Huh? Ms CoinciLAN?

Everyone can see you're trying way too hard, you know?

Yes, I'm not the first one who bought it, but I definitely bought it BEFORE her. I asked people who have it for advises and comments. I don't do things secretly and don't admit, unlike someone.

Nope, I'm not selfish. I shared my pictures & when people asked, no matter is strangers, acquaintances, friends or whoever, I shared my opinions and advices, I even sent them discount coupon so they can get it cheaper. But to this one particular person, sorry, I think she's a hardcore copier machine, no other machines work harder than her.

Becos she's doing it, not once, not twice, but countless times.

she's so 阴魂不散, scary!

Kinda numb by her dumb actions actually! Lol! That's why I'm not even angry or frustrated this time round. I am amused! HAHAHA

Guess she and her group of chio & yandao friends will have something new after I posted this. Trust me, they will, cos they are still stalking my blog. =)

Right anot? Ms CoinciLAN? It only goes to show how life-less you people are! Haha!

What goes around, comes around.

2012-02-10T12:03:00.002+08:00

The problem that lies with some people out there is, they don't understand the meaning of "what goes around, comes around".

If you're one who loves to gossip about/criticise/scold/curse & swear at others, then be prepared that one day, people will do the same to you too. This is a cycle.

If you cannot stand people gossiping about you, then 1) don't gossip about others, 2) don't do things to make others gossip about, simple.

Retaliate becos what others said is not the truth is another matter.

Moreover, if you think you did nothing of that sort, why bother? People might not be talking about you anyway. Don't think too much.

You see, i'm definitely not one who cannot stand people talking about me, but if it's not the truth, i will retaliate.

Becos i don't make up stories about others, i don't like people making up stories about me either.

And i don't usually gossip about people too, unless that person is super irritating, and he/she annoys me.

I always think that everyone is kind, unless he/she proven otherwise.

Pandan Cake

2012-02-10T11:22:00.001+08:00

With HCP!!!

My first attempt and it's a SUCCESS! =D

Well, not fantastic type but it's edible!

ZY said it tasted more like pandan bread, whahahahah!

Bo suggested applying some kaya/peanut butter as the filling and it tastes better!

So amazed with this pan, really! I bought it becos it can bake, i love baking but not cooking!

Thanks to those amazing people sharing their recipes around too!

Going to Hatyai again!

2012-02-09T11:19:00.000+08:00

Aiyo, Tiger website is getting on my nerves leh... I've to book air tickets for so many people, but if i book all at the same time, the price increases another $40 per pax. =.= WHY LIDAT ONE HAR? Now waiting for my bro's friend see if he/she can get cheaper anot. Sigh

Aiya, our backside itchy lah. We can actually get it at a much cheaper rate de, but due to procrastinations, we're paying double the amount per pax now, child also same price hor, bringing Raeann along by the way.

You know what's/who's stopping me?

It's her!

Gonna miss my popiah roll at night so much, for 4 days! :( She has got no passport yet and bringing her along now is totally not advisable. I didn't want to go but ZY wanted to go, badly.

Gonna miss her laughter and smile...

Haha, my mum was watching the Sheng Siong show! LOL! And i don't know what's Raeann singing lor!

A good 5 years...

2012-02-08T10:55:00.000+08:00

Me : Eh dear, do u remember when is our wedding anniversary and how many years have we been married?

ZY : Forgot liao...

Me : *agitated* Wah lau eh, u this kind of husband, damn irritating.

ZY : Aiya, just kidding lah, of cos i remember.

Me : How many years lah? And when?

ZY : 5 years lor, 24th March.

Okay, am glad he still remember.

Me : Are you bringing me anywhere?

ZY : I bring u out lah, BUT U PAY! I can also buy u present, BUT U PAY!

FML man, this is the answer he gave me when i asked if he's going to bring me out on this Valentine's day. But it's okay lah, i'm gonna treat him to crab feast on either day, with the kids of cos! (Well, do be thankful if you doesn't need to pay anything when you're out with your husband, becos i'm spending part of my salary on all these.)

Wow, 5 years liao, it also means that we are old liao, sian! Really dislike the word 'old' lor!

My current favourite hokkien song, it's very meaningful if you can understand hokkien! :)

6 cars in a family, 夸张 anot?

2012-02-07T10:35:00.001+08:00

1) Mum's - Toyota
2) ZY's - BMW
3) Mine - Suzuki
4) Bro 1 - Chevrolet
5) Bro 2 - Kia

And, my sis is gonna buy a car soon, she just got her licence by the way. I just helped her to get the green light from my dad to pass her his existing carplate.

I'm not boasting okay, cos there's nothing fantastic about our cars, all are cheap cheap ones. But 6 cars in a family, where to park?! I've already given my 'parking lot' to ZY. If my dad's the one getting a new car, i've to 'migrate' to park outside liao. Hahaha!

But i've already decided, my next car, i will do a number bidding, either 78 or 7878, my house unit number. :)

Anyway,

I did this with my HCP last night, Muah Chee!

It really tasted not bad! First attempt and it's a success! :)

My new bling bling car refresherner! Mummy bought it for me!

The last few days of CNY!

2012-02-06T10:48:00.000+08:00

Finally, today's the last day of CNY!!! But i'm sick again, like real sick. Totally voiceless now, ZY asked me not to talk cos i sound very man. Hahah! But don't know why he keep talking to me leh?

Actually, i'm recovering liao but on Friday evening, my nose started dripping like crazy again, then i woke up with a sexy voice on Saturday morning, and voiceless on Sunday morning. How great! I want my voice back lah, it's so torturing to talk lidat!

I hope i don't spread it back to my kids. *pray* I can't seperate them from me despite being so sick cos there's no one to bathe/attend to them, and they are very attached to me. So ya, i'm too "好命" liao. No wonder i can't seem to recover after so long!

Friday, 3rd Feb 2012

ZY went to attend his friend's wedding and i brought the kids out to meet my sis for dinner & a little shopping! It's been soooooooo long since i shopped outside. Cos i've no time, no time, no time. With the kids around, there's no chance for me to shop at all. All my recent shopping are done online, only online.

Kpo meimei drinking her milk, looking here and there while we enjoy our Pepper Lunch.

And i managed to lug home two pairs of new shoes!!!

This pair only costed $10! Cos there's a moving out sales! So proud of this purchase leh!

Whereas, this pair costed $25.90, but i swear it's very comfy! Bought alot of flats lately cos i need to carry baby everyday.

Shopped at JP by the way. And the moving out sales is at Point 2, level 3, near to Haagen Daz. The men shoes are damn cheap at two pairs for $36, you can hop over and take a look if ya interested! =D Well, i'm not selfish, i love to share, just cannot stand people who do and don't admit! And then twist the story around to the whole world, seeking for sympathy, i think. But it's okay lah, those who knows me, will know. Those who doesn't knows me, doesn't matter. You think i care?

Saturday, 4th Feb 2012

My HCP arrived in the noon! Bought the pandan cake mix yesterday, gonna try it when i'm free!

Meimei's 4 & a half month old!

So fast lor, i've given birth for 4 months+ already, still 2-3 kgs away from my pre-preg weight leh! (Yay! Dropped another kg again, i've this love-hate feeling towards being ill, lol!)

She has a pair of beautiful eyes. Hope her right double eyelid will stays permanent!!!

Sunday, 5th Feb 2012

Very unwell, finally dragged myself to see a doctor. Unfortunately, all the western clinics were already closed, no choice but to see a chinese physician, too desperate. But fml lor, the medicine is not working at all and it's so bloody expensive! =.=

Before that, i had to bathe for my little boss first. She really enjoys bathing alot!!

Planking?! LOL

We arranged for a dinner appointment with Vic cos we have not seen her for a very long time, and she's flying off again tomorrow. I dragged myself there becos i really hope to see her again after so long. And thank god i went cos she might settle down in overseas soon!

Have known her for... 4-5 years, i think? I remember i was expecting Raeann that time, she was my bro's ex gf by the way, and she used to stay in our house. Don't know why, my family seem to have to special bonding with her, my parents (especially my mum) like her alot. Even now that they've broke off, we still stay in contact. It's fate, i guess?

On the way to VivoCity!

She sits #likeaboss!

And we had our dinner at Bosses; 黑社会. I always dine there becos i don't know what's nice at Vivo.

Haha, this is my mum's latest trademark pose! LOL

Really don't understand why lor, slim people gets slimmer while fat people gets fatter as the age rises. She's super slim now lor, i hope i can donate some of my fats to her.

I wish her all the best for her future endeavour! Keep in touch, sis!

ZY said when she carrys meimei, she looks like the one whom just gave birth. Haha!

Did i mention before that she was always mistaken as Raeann's mum when we go out? LOL

Monday, 6th Feb 2012

I bought meimei a new walker online. She can walk leh, but backwards! :)

龙年行大运 2012 (Part V - 初七)

2012-02-03T10:07:00.000+08:00

SIL's parents and relatives came to our house to 拜年 and we went out for dinner together!

It's 人日, everyone's birthday!

My very first lou-hei for the Dragon year! I missed two chances to lou before that cos i was attending to Raechelle!

HUAT AH!!!!!!!

I was still VERY VERY sick then. Pale face, red nose, heaty lips & messy hair. I had to slap a little blusher on if not i really look like ghost lor! Only blusher and nothing else, i don't even bother to draw eyebrows! Haha! What a spoilsport to be sick during CNY! :(

ZY's imitation!

2012-02-02T10:09:00.001+08:00

Watch this! This is damn funny can! LOL

My sis know him best, 真的! This is exactly how he sleep! Hahahaha

P/S : She changed the "好命到 kaopeh" to "好命的要死".

龙年行大运 2012 (Part IV - 初四 & 初五)

2012-02-01T16:21:00.002+08:00

年初四

A picture speaks a thousand words. Yes, all of them fell sick on 初四 and i had to bring all of them to see doctor and thus, i didn't come to work.

This lil' girl here can smile and smile and smile despite being sick. That's her trademark, i think?

年初五

And... I woke up with a sore throat on Friday morning!!! :(

Received this on Friday, the chioest angbao i've ever seen.

And yes, i've got a new phone!

But, i've no idea how to use it at all. My sis said alot of people have already left the iPhone clan. Really? Hmm...

Bits and Pieces

2012-02-01T09:50:00.002+08:00

Did this last night...

Raeann has PLENTY of pictures and i had a hard time searching for the nicer ones.

And of cos, not forgetting my meimei!!!

Gonna insert this into their profile! =D

Oh yah, today's my ah ma's 16th death anniversary, how time flies, she has been gone for a good 16 years liao. Wonder how's she living up there?!

This ah ma is my mum's mum, we were very close cos we stayed together when she was alive. She, my ah po & aunts took care of us when we were young as our parents were too busy with work. I still can remember bits and pieces of her, not kidding.

Like how she loved to lock herself inside her room and refused to open the door for us no matter how we knocked. (But she was a little deaf btw.) And the only way to make her open the door for us cos we needed to take our things so urgently was... "AH MA, GOT FIRE". LOL! And she would panickly ran to open the door. Haha!

"Ah ma, how have u been? Have you seen your two (latest) great grandchildren? They are so fun and mischievious. And please bless all your children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, everyone okay?"

And, 今天我有口福了! My ah kim cooked sooooooooooooooo much food to pray my ah ma and my mum brought it here for me to enjoy. There's curry, soup, dim sums & etc, yummy! My (half) canteen will be on renovation from today onwards! Renovate half then won't be dusty and dirty meh? I don't know lah but i guess i won't be eating there these few months. Maybe i'll drive nearby to dabao lor.

龙年行大运 2012 (Part III - 初三; 春到河畔)

2012-01-31T12:27:00.000+08:00

Hard to make them cooperative, really.

Nothing much on 初三 cos i refused to go 拜年 again, and i initially wanted to rest at home since i'm starting work on 初四. But well well, ZY suggested to bring the kids here (below) and i obliged lor...

Anyway, my MIL came with us cos ZY asked her to go & sign up phones before that and she's very funny cos ZY merely asked if she wanna tag along anot and at first she said she can't cos she's cooking halfway. And then...

3 secs later...

She called home, "Eh, help me to cook the rest hor. I'm going to 河畔 with ZY they all cos he kept asking me to go lor".

Oh well!

My sis went along too but it's me who kept asking if she wanna go anot cos i saw her tweets saying that she has no programs that day.

Thought that it won't be so crowded since alot of people are starting work on that day but well, i was wrong. Even saw ZY's distant relatives there (those we met once a year), how small the world can be?

Then ah, MIL was so enthu telling all the distant relatives that Raechelle looks exactly like ZY when he was a baby. Then my sis said...

Bo: 4 years ago, she was so enthu telling people that Raeann looks like ZY instead of you. Then 4 years later, she insisted Raechelle looks like ZY and Raeann looks like you more.

Me: You know right! =,=

I don't know what does this mean? How come it's a tiger instead of dragon?

I asked her to go take a pic with this pig becos she's born in the year of pig. At first, she rejected cos she insisted she's born in the year of CAT. I told her this last time becos i said she's so stingy so she's born in the year of cat. And she 认定 that she's born in the year of cat also. Ask her what's her zodiac, she will tell u cat. LOL

And my baby bunny! =D

This was taken by Bo when Raeann was playing (expensive) games. I had to carry her cos she's melting inside the pram. Poor meimei! So warm and stuffy!!!!!!! Hot die us!

Nothing much there lah, except alot of nice food. But i don't feel like eating there cos it's too stuffy and crowded at the food area.

And before we left, we saw GCT, drove pass us, his car plate is 2128, lol! Think there's some fireworks that day and that's why he's there. Not sure cos we didn't stay for that!

3 VS 1 = I lost!

2012-01-30T13:49:00.000+08:00

At home now, down with cough, flu, fever, sore throat, and whatever whatever. Whole body aching like mad, and it's started since last Friday when i woke up with a mild sore throat.

The conclusion is, my body is not strong enough to counter away the virus inside the room from my husband, Raeann & Raechelle. Yes, all of them fell sick together and seen doctor together. So now when they're recovering, i got it, how blessed!

Okay, i need to rest now, picking Raeann up from school later.

Till then.

Bye.

龙年行大运 2012 (Part II - 初一 & 初二)

2012-01-27T15:54:00.000+08:00

年初一

They said she looks like a doll. LOL

My lil' doll was so tired for the past few days. Cos everywhere she goes, she's getting all the attentions. People wanna carry her, take pics with her & etc. She smiles easily and that's why everyone wanna carry or play with her.

And my Raeann decided to wear this $10 romper instead of her Guess jeans. Cos her jeans was being washed and she complained tight. Haha! My cousin said this romper is nice & if there's adult size, she will buy. LOL! Material is very comfy too! What a steal right?! I bought it at Suntec, if i didn't remember wrongly.

As usual, my mum's side relatives will all come to our place to gather on 初一, this practice has been going on for many many years liao. That's why i said CNY is boring cos we're always doing the same thing every year.

My cousin and his pretty wife. I hope i can carry their baby soon!!! 加油!

Okay, Raeann looks like Bobo, i know.

Aftermath, we went for house visits to ZY's relatives' houses at around 2+pm till night. This is totally draining all my energy out. Cos after we reached home, i bathed for the two of them & fed them before i had my dinner at 10pm. =(

My husband said i'm 好命到 kaopeh. =,= Seriously, 好命 meh??? I dare not say i'm 苦命, but i'm definitely not 好命 lor. If i'm 好命到 kaopeh, then what's he?! 好命到 sibei sibei kaopeh? Everything also don't need to do, never help with the kids at all, everyday like living in his own world only. Don't understand why he thinks i'm very 好命 when i have to work becos he refused to support me & i've to look after his kids alone always.

Yes, i'm angry, super. It's okay that he don't give me anything & don't help in anything but why keep saying and telling people that "i'm 好命到 kaopeh" and gave people a wrong idea that he actually give me alot but i'm still not contented. And when people asked me, i will say the truth and that's when he will say i never give him any face. FML! So now, i just smile away lor. Aiya, 人在做, 天在看, i don't have to explain much. [All my branded bags (except that Prada clutch) are bought with my own money by the way. Funny why people think that he's the one who bought them for me! =,= And no, he don't give me a single cent.] Even if i'm 好命, it's all given by my parents & not him.

年初二

She wore a dress! Also $10, lol. Bought it from same shop! :)

And my lil' cutie pie!

All my relatives kept asking me to bring meimei to join those baby competitions. Hahah! I'd like to, but i've no time leh.

Went out for a short while to ZY's relative & friend's house to 拜年 then rushed back home cos relatives from my dad's side are coming to my place. :)

My ah ma!

My young cousin's kids. At the age of 25, she's doing a great job as a housewife; handling her 3 kids, household chores and cooking well. She's really a great mum, just like mummy Grace. Amazing lor, cos i can never do that. Cos first thing first, i can't cook, lol. And even if i try, ZY will always be there pouring 'cold water' on me. To avoid disappointment, i might as well don't cook, right? Haha

But my cousin married a good husband. Even though he's also very young, he's really good at parenting. He looks after the kids de leh. For so many years i seen him during CNY, he's always there looking after his kids. Maybe this is what motivates my cousin to be a housewife without complaints. As in, it's always good to see your partner helping out, even with just simple tasks. =)

Unlike me, during CNY every year, you will see me attending to my kids while my husband's enjoying his gambling, without fail. In the past, i will feel so unfair. Why issit always me?! At home = me, go out = me, everything falls on me. I don't even have time to sit down and rest. And we don't have any couple time at all. Wherever we go, no matter what occasions, we bring our kids along. But now, NUMB liao, really numb. And my husband still dare to say "i'm 好命到 kaopeh"???? In what sense, tell me? So pekchek one leh!

龙年行大运 2012 (Part I - 年除夕)

2012-01-24T10:17:00.004+08:00

Happy Lunar New Year to all my dearest ones, friends and readers! May u all HUAT HUAT HUAT in this dragon year okay?

I've been busy from the eve of eve till today. 一天到晚忙个不停咯! Another round of house-visits today and i can finally relax.

Have you realised that out of so many CNY we've spent, only this year is raining? I mean, on the eve and first day (yesterday). Wonder why??? Becos this year is 水龙年 and therefore, to welcome the year, it has to come with alot of "水" (water) lor. That's what i heard, correct me if i'm wrong. =)

I took alot of pics this year, becos i've a phone with a quite tok-gong camera. CAMERA IS SO IMPORTANT TO ME LOR! Hence, i'll divide my CNY into a few posts to avoid photo-flood.

My D.I.Y manicure!

I hope i can squeeze out some time to do a decent mani/pedi next year. I hate to do it myself with my kids around. I can never get it done well on my first try. But anyway, i'm quite happy with this. Chin chai lah!

Raeann's D.I.Y pedicure by me! Nice not?

In the noon, my MIL called and asked us back for reunion lunch and so we went. We had three rounds of reunion meals that day. Cos after that, we rushed back home to have dinner with my family.

My SIL and her assistant whipped up a table of 好料! Instead of the very-normal-every-time-also-eat-de steamboat, we had something different this year!!!

While at home. Meimei's first Lunar New Year with us! =)

And after this, we rushed to Redhill for our 3rd round of reunion dinner/supper or whatever you called that. Of cos i never eat again lah! It's the same every year & to be honest, i don't like it! Like rushing here and there and it's not even new year yet.

And you know what, we reached home ONLY at 12+am cos we went praying after Redhill. I cleaned up both of them until 1+am and i slept at 2+am. =( SO TIRED! My husband played mahjong upon reaching home and went out to pray after that, until 6-7am.

My two kids received big fat angbaos for 压岁! Fattest one should be from my dad, then followed by my mum, haha!

Meimei is the center of attraction this year. Everywhere she goes, people snatch to carry and take pics with her. She posed until very tired yesterday until she refused to look at the camera after that, lol.

Stay tuned for Part II! But all the first hand info/pics are uploaded on FB! =)

Mini Princess Foot Mask

As promised, i'm gonna blog about the foot mask i did on 10th Jan 12 now...

Yes, this is the one.

And here's the result!

BEWARE : A few pictures of my ugly foot!

This was taken the next day (11th Jan 12) after i did the mask cos i forgot to take a pic before i do the mask. =X

P/S : Peeling will ONLY start on the 4th - 5th day after the mask.

My foot wasn't really bad to start with and thus, after the peeling, there isn't much changes lor. But of cos, i can feel that it's smoother now and all my heels & whatever cracks are gone as well.

On the 4th (14th Jan 12) night, i realise, my peeling has started. I was expecting it to peel on 15th becos it was the 5th day and my mum's foot started peeling on the 5th day.

By right, my mum said, leave it to drop on it's own (so u will see dead skins dropping everywhere u go and it's gross?), i can't. My itchy hands can't resist peeling them, lol. So i peel, peel, peeled. I even hide inside the toilet for around 45 mins after both my kids slept, just to peel, becos i can wash all my dead skins away (at once) after i peel, instead of sweeping and picking it up like mad.

5th (15th Jan 12) day, all the 'major' peelings has been cleared by yours truely! Haha!

And today is the hmm... 9th day? There are still some little peelings here and there on the top which are not noticeable so i just leave it there to drop by itself lah!

My point is, this is cheap and good. Although it doesn't show major effects/changes on my foot (becos my foot wasn't really in bad condition), i still think this is good! Becos it has shown great result on my mum's foot. My mum's foot was in a really bad state and i've bought her alot of foot masks/products to try but none of them actually helped much.

Then i bought this for her to try! She said it's good, so it must be good! And i bought it again for myself to try. And then i bought it again becos there was some promotion going on. Haha!

Then last night, i did pedicure for myself, becos i've no time to go for a mani/pedi session...

It's sucha torture waiting for it to dry okay. I did it only after my kids slept and i waited till around 1+ am for it to dry! :( I was really really fucking sleepy by then. It was not entirely dry yet but i fell asleep lor. And, i'm really unhappy with this color/design, don't know why i choose this in the first place. Anyway, i re-do it this morning liao! Yes, i bring all my nails barang to my office, lol.

P/S : And a very very happy note here. I lost 2kgs after coming back to work for 2 weeks. So yeah, i'm another step nearer to my pre-preg weight now. My mum was shocked why i can lose 17kgs in such a short time. Well, to me, it's not short leh. I targetted to lose ALL my pregnancy weight away within 3-4 months. Not easy cos i'm not young anymore! I DO eat but not alot, i think. Sometimes, i'm really too tired to eat dinner. My mum said, "自己顾孩子比较容易瘦" and i really gotta agree with this.

Just like last night, i didn't really sleep well cos Raeann isn't feeling well. She woke up in the middle of the night to puke phlegm, then meimei woke up 6am everyday for the past few days, for what u know? Cos she wanna 'kue sio' with us on the bed. The moment i carry her out from the sarong cradle and put her on the bed, she fell back asleep. =,= 4 people squeezing on a queen size bed, how to sleep? Teach me.

自己顾孩子已经很累了，还得要做工，累上加累!

Dragon Year, HUAT AH!

Aiyo, CNY is just a few days away and i still have lots of things undone. Really don't have any CNY mood at all lor! But yesterday hor, i took time off and left at 3pm to... DYE MY HAIR!

Don't know what has got into me, i walked into the salon and told them, "i want super duper red". Haha! I wanna HUAT in 2012 ok! The dye looks really red, but it doesn't turn out that red on all my hair, only on the bleached highlighted areas. But it's nice! LOUD! Wootz!

Under the sunlight!

Not that red hor?

It's been sucha long time since i've red hair, used to dye it red (always) before married. But don't know why didn't think of dying red for the past few years... I'm sick of my hair color now, i want a change! I want to have a lucky dragon year, hopefully.

LET'S HUAT TOGETHER OK? =)

Similarities between the sisters!

Watch this (if you haven watch it before or have forgotten)!!!

This is Raeann!

She was 5 months 5 days old then (if i didn't record wrongly).

And...

This is Raechelle @ 3 months 27 days old.

Okay, meimei is bigger in size, since the day she was born. But i think they do strike some resemblances somewhere like, shape of the head? complexion? chubby-ness? Meimei's eyes are much bigger lah! And thank god both my kids' complexion are fair like me, not chao-ta like ZY.

Please grow well & be safe always, my two babies! =)

Fidgets @ Turf City

Made a very bold decision to bring my two kids out alone on Saturday to meet-up with PY & Alexis to Fidgets @ Turf City, cos there's no one to look after meimei for me! So yeah, one baby & one kid, thank god PY is around, else i think i might die, due to warmness.

Yes, everything's so nice at Fidgets; sofa is new and comfy, price is reasonable, huge & spacious, safe for kids, free carpark with lotsa parking lots & etc, BUT air con is not strong enough, too warm!!! With the weekend crowds, i think they should set the air con to a lower temperature.

Both of them were quite cooperative until meimei started to feel sleepy but too warm to fall asleep and gets a little cranky for awhile. Warm until face so red like she had blusher on! LOL! 我也是很热咯!

But overall, everything's okay, meimei did fell asleep eventually for a short 15 mins then woke up to play & smile again (she smile and giggle easily).

As for Raeann, she was really well-behaved, cos ZY's not around. Haha! She had so much fun with Alexis for a good 4 hours. We left when they announced that they're closing, didn't realised we stayed for so long man!

So happy that i've finally found a partner that i can get along well with, to bring our kids out together. I may have alot of friends and is very friendly, but i don't like to mix around. I will only go out with people whom i feel 100% comfy with. You see, i'm really not desperate for friends.

Can't wait for our next meet-up to...

Bringing our girls to a baking class! =)
