Folks, I be busy for quite a while...

I'm going to be busy busy busyyyyy.... for quite a while.
Working on my part time study's assignment, 20 long pages of killing essay on something I'm not good at, something I basically hate.
Tracing Historical Development of Trade Unions in Singapore
Going through thick historical reference books at the library makes my eyes hurt, blurrish, and brain burnt. Staring at the years of history from the early years of 1948, is just killing. Eventhough it's a group work, it's kind of like everyone's got to go through the same reading routine before coming out with the draft. Dateline of submission is on 4 August 2009, so I be working hard to get through this "Hell".
There's a total of 10 modules throughout the entire 20 months long course. I have only got through 3 of them, the current subject is really not my cup of tea. Hopefully the rest of the 6 would have me going through smoothly and without much hiccups.

Just look, you can see I'm going "green" just by working on this subject alone. Let's just say, I'm not the UNION type of material.

Anything that's popping up in my mind...

It's a rainy rainy morning, I woke up at 5:45am this morning and noticed that it's started to rain. Strong winds blowing in, fighting its way through the gaps of the windows and from under the door. A tiring day since I got home really late from my study last night, and following a chit chat late into the night with a friend... Patrick hubby and I are just so tired when we got up this morning.
Anyway, we managed to get ourselves washed up and dressed for work, it's still raining as we got into our car. The traffic is really slow as our vehicle drove along, there's a vehicle breakdown, following another incident of vehicles collision. Such things always managed to make themselves happen everytime on rainy days...

Finally, I got to work and Patrick hubby continued on his way to work after dropping me off. The view from my office is simply lovely, dreamy, foggy, and making me all sleepy.

As the time ticks by past the morning peak hours, the traffic on the road started loosening up. Otherwise the road shown would always be jam packed with vehicles.

It's Wednesday! I'm going for a check up this Friday, have most fortunately managed to get a referral from my family doctor, a senior gynae for my pregnancy. Following a painful 2nd pregnancy from a doctor on duty as my gynae wasn't around, it's really unthinkable to be going through the same thing again.

From tracking records, baby's into the 4th month now, still as active and bubbly as usual. Occassional shifting around, ensuring to give me some punches and kicks here and there, perhaps to remind me of the pressence.
Agghhh... the agony as figure starts changing, tummy protutes out, hips and buttock are increasing the width. My beloved high heels are being packed into the shoe boxes, I won't be able to wear them for the next 6 months at least. Even my walking seems clumsy, as my breathing gets heavier, taking long deep breaths...

Been busy over the weekends, it's Mum's birthday and we decided to have a simple loving meal at home.
The most important ingredient "LOVE" is not forgotten!

Dad and Mum taking a couple photo, they have come a long way, altogether 32 years of marriage down the long long road... raising two kids (my brother and me).


Of cos the party must be complete with a bottle of sweet tasting red wine, top with top quality cheese cake from Bakerzin!

Home cooked to go along, simple, but delicious!

Mum's still camera shy, smiling sweetly...
It's been a wonderful day, with 3 little boys running around the house, adding to the atmosphere. We took loads of photos, and tried out the wonderfully compact Selphy CP780 Photo Printer again on some undeveloped photos of yesteryears...

Turning out wonderfully fast, clear, bright and colourful!
My 3 boys had a fun time going through them with my parents...
To be continued...

I need a new BAG!

Yes, I seriously need a new bag, something that would be sophisticated and hardy enough to let me carry it in style to work, as well as to private functions. Something that would accommodate all my stuff, my A4 Document File, my diary, my cosmetics, my mobile phone, my purse, etc...
(Yes, that's how much stuff I lugged around everyday)
Then, I came across this soft quilted shoulder bag
Coco Classics Black Soft Quilted Shoulder Bag
at this online shop Alice Wonders selling a variety of bags.
I'm fallying in love with the lovely quote of the bag by the seller
"Take me from your office to the loft scene. Guaranteed style longevity".
Even better, they are holding a promotion contest for readers to get a chance to win a choice handbag from their shop.
Visit Giveaway Contest to find out more and GOOD LUCK!
