Precious words

This morning was very warm and I was all sweating. Realised that air con was automatically off at early wee morning about 4 - 5am. So I removed my pink blanket from me and slept continuously till 11am.

Actually my hubby tried to wake me up at 9am but too tired to wake up. Then he again wake me up at 10.15am, I did not know why I slept so tightly and refused to wake up. Last night from 11+ pm till 3+ am, I kept going toilet and have to adjust my sleeping position with my belly.

Saw the light seemed so strongly reflect to my room and wondered what time was it. So I got my hp and shocked it was already 11.30am. Alittle screamed from my heart and get ready because I did not know that my hubby was waiting for me. So bad of me......heart pain tightly..... And had my pink blanket to wash.

He consoled me sweetly and told me not to rush. Wanted me to take my time sweetly. I asked him why he said like this in this tone.

He said those previous words "darling, the more he is happy, the more he sees my belly is growing bigger and bigger."

No wonder, baby responds very well to my hubby whenever he talks or pat on my belly. Seemed both of them have a special connection. Still we are looking forward to our baby's arrival soon.

Evian

Just a thought to take photo of this to kill my waiting time outside my hubby's office yesterday. My first time to buy this Evian water bottle and tasted differently from my home.

Emigration or Moving Out

Was at a friend's place for a while and I was a little kinda of "curious" when I saw so many boxes that seals with green stickers. The boxes looked like very neat packaging and some are sealed with strong double scrotch or what. Does not look like moving to a new home. More looked like emigration. The man looked after the boxes.

Actually it reminded me of my previous owner of my home who is singaporean wife and emigrated to US with his english husband last 2 years ago. This wife is extremely friendly and allowed us to view her home few times before considered to buy. In end, she decided to sell us at the best lowest market price of 4-rooms flat. Was shocked and delighted, of course and we immediately signed the paper. But the number of boxes we moved in was only 10 - 12 boxes (some big and small sizes).

Spaghetti Indulge One

Just had a sudden craving for spaghetti and I prepared dinner stuffs before my hubby came home from work. It took me about 1 hour to prepare pasta and not so difficult as you think.

Prefer this fresh corn to preserved corn canned. Just put fresh corn into boiling pot till it becomes soft. Also can use streaming container if you prefer. Once it became soft, more easier to cut corn like this.

The following items: carrot x 1 half, broccoil x 1 medium whole, lean light pork (enough to fill the small bowl), fresh corn, carbonara and spaghetti (just take out half portion).

Instant spaghetti had to boil till it became soft. Sure you know how to cook spaghetti in many ways..probably better than me.. hehe... Just nice portion of spaghetti to fit the plate.

Quite easy and fast spaghetti cooking. Just cook light lean pork first till it is fully cooked. Then the next to broccoil and carrot and corn to mix cooked altogether.

I just simply love to eat low-fat and prefer more to eat spaghetti include with broccoil. One day I will try to cook beef spaghetti even I dont know how to cook beef. But just give it a try next time, ya.

Baby Care Gift Pack

Went to see gynae yesterday with my hubby and he was too excited to know what & how baby doing inside me. Then had ultra scan and we were surprised to see baby so good boy and sleeping sweetly. Baby prince was in the similar sleeping position as my hubby - (like lying his head on arm while left arm is on other side.) Hubby started to laugh and smile at doctor after hearing that baby is very healthy & active.

After collected my medicine and the staff gave me this baby care gift pack and blue baby bag. I am going to use this bag to pack baby stuff for my delivery soon in November 2007.

Opened the pink bag and alot of useful booklets about baby and pregnancy thingy. Also got sample of Dumex Mamil Pregnancy milk and Huggies Diapers. I not sure which brand of diaper shall I use for my baby.

Bon Appetizer I

Yesterday I had a quiet "romance" breakfast with my hubby at Hanis restaurant and it was not fully crowded till 1015am - 1030am. That was before the BPL match between Man Utd and Man City. Sigh...already know the soccer final result of this. So sad :((

Then after that I secretly bought some cakes back home without telling my hubby as I had a sudden craving for sweet cake. No chance to eat till now.

Cakes: Pandan (for my hubby) and strawberry cake (for me)

Popular selling one: Rocky Char Siew bun (for my hubby)

my all the time favourite muffin - apple.

meet MDRT Successors 2007

Probably you all may not know what is MDRT stands for or have not heard of it. Same for me as at the first time I heard my hubby mentioned this. Baffled what is that till when he brought me to AC Office opening ceremony (last year) near Raffles Place area.

Damn shocked to see so many people wearing black suits on that day of opening ceremony...ya men in black lor... but also women in black too. Then I walked into new office opp Hans Restaurant of GE building. I nearly got lost to count so many trophies and photos gallery which successors travelled to many countries such as Holland, US, Japan, Korea and else. not bad really. By then I know what is MDRT - Million Dollars Round Table which holds every years.

Show you the real successors on this newletter I got from my hubby. Successors those who worked very.....very hard to make it to MDRT. I have to remind this as a motivation for my hubby who is now working hard to make it.

Colin Ong (from right side and 2nd one) who keeps disturbing my hubby, just to motivate him harder.

I have met few people (Colin, Irene, Vincent, Patrick and Xavier) who had been to MDRT more than 5 times or every years. Thanks to my hubby who introduced them to me. Because of them, he joined GE as Life Planner after he left army force early this year. Till now, he is more happier to save people and baby endownment planning and else many.

Think...maybe soon you will see more and more GE successors on Straits Times newspaper or you happen to hear this from your circle friends outside.

Golden Japanese Udon Noodle

My hubby used to cook dinner for us when I was just a few weeks pregnant till at 5th month, he was extrememly busy with his works and comes home after 8pm. Really heart pain to see him work so hard for the sake of our coming baby little prince.

So I took my turn to cook something nice from Monday to Friday. Happened to think of cooking Japanese Udon fried noodle. Actually it was my first attempt to cook this. I just tried cooking any dishes...anyhow lah.. :)) but turn out nice and simple dish still....

Japanese fresh udon noodle, broocil x 1 half, green pepper x 1, small corn x 1 pkt and 3 eggs.

First step to start cooking. Lean Light pork must be cooked very deep so that I wont taste the raw of it.

Second step: cook broocil, green pepper and small corn altogether till it is well cooked enough. After that, put them in plate.

Third step. I finally learnt and mastered how to cook egg. Thanks to my hubby taught me. hehe. Fried eggs must be firm and fully cooked.

Here is the come of the final step, after cooked the eggs then put udon noodle and lean pork into wok together to fry first. Then put one tablespoon of dark soya sauce and tabsco. Till the udon fried became brown nicely. Lastly put the broocil, pepper and corn to mixed with them altogether. I dont usually add MSG or sugar or salt to it.

Finally it was really not so difficult to cook this dish. As I just put my heart and soul and love to cook this specially for my hubby. Just want him to relax and eat dinner happily at home after hard work in office or meeting his cilents. Really glad to hear that he said nice with smile. :))

She is not ME

One of my friend who sent me this picture website (below) and she thought that the girl in white top and black pant is me. She assumed too much to think or believe that I am this girl. Because I looked like her even more.

When I saw it and quite surprised that at her side of face really resembled me partly, but I really swear that I am not her. Speak the truth that she is far more beautiful than me. Pardon me, I do not have twin sister, really lah.

I attached the picture below to compare whether she and me look the same totally or partly. Me was in grey top - first left side.

Me and my female friends (since primary school till now).

Topshop Error Measurement

Bought two different colors long vest tops when I was only 3 months pregnant. I chose this size 16 so that it is able to last me wearing them till the full term of 9 months. I am actually wearing topshop size 10-12 at my pre-pregnancy weight.

However, I did not realise the difference measurement till I found at last. No wonder when I first wore grey one and found too loose. Then the next few days later, I wore the pink one and felt not too loose.

Felt something wrong so I put them flat on my bed to check and realised the size width difference even thought both are the same size tag label 16 shown on picture below.

I have learnt my lesson for not checking the size or measurement identify before purchase it. Strange, I did trying both at changing room before I bought it. I guess it was over already and will remember this in my heart to check double before buy it, ya. Guess it may apply the same to you in case. Dont want you to be the next sad shopper like me, haha...

Babydoll Smock Rocks...

I have been looking for this lovely & comfortable but yet trendy babydoll smock dress is more suitable for those who are preggers. Tried my luck to find this dress at yahoo auction or ebay or other website upon my chance. Till now seemed like no more selling this one.

Just like this style dress that has more space & free to wear this and even wont be too tight on big belly. I had seen some preggers wearing abit tight elastic short or pant with tie or something like jean with elastic rubber which is only selling at maternity shop. Think I more prefer maternity dress to those maternity jean or pant or short.

At ebay, saw one similar smock dress but the top elastic around bust area comes with some line color stitches but the branded is either Abercrombie or Hollister. I not sure which one.

Replaced Birkenstock with Neckermann

This is my 2 years old Birkenstock Papillio sandal and always wear it out to everywhere I go. Till it became worn and tear so I just leave it outside home. This designed Papillio sandal I love is no longer available at outlet. So sad and I decided to wait for another latest arrival collection of birkenstock papillio.

Papillio sandals has many different designs and it is hard to decide to choose.. all are nice ones. Save my brain ranting till new collection launches.

I bought the similar designed sandal one but it is Neckermann. At least it is more comfortable and light one. Just a temporarily to wear them.

Birkenstock and Neckermann both are the similar designs detail. But no PAPILLIO shown on it.



I tried to appreciate this white & pink floral designed sandal as no size stock of other design sandal that time. Mine is big feet...big headache everytimes hear no more size 8 or 8 half whenever I choose nice sandal. *sigh*

Fashion Secret about jeans

Before my pregnancy, extremely love wearing jean which is either skinny or straight. Wearing jean is never fail me and it even can match with every tops I wear. Jean only can last me up to 2 years before buying the new one. Especially Levis jeans I owned two that been with me for almost 5 years. Levis jean 577 was my first one I bought with my first salary drawn of first job after my graduation. It has sentimental value to me and I still keep it. Cannot bear to give it away. *hehe* Till now, I still taken good care of my four jeans at home and cannot wait to wear them after November 07.

Then today I saw the website by a chance thru Beauty & Style section which mentioned about Best Jeans to Flatter Your Shape.

Best Jeans To Flatter Your Butt

Make the most of your butt! A pair of straight-leg jeans in stiff denim accentuates your assets without exaggerating them.

AVOID: A tight, tapered fit with small pockets that make your butt look bigger.

Hot Pockets

Pockets that cover your butt from top to bottom will help shape your backside. Be sure they're not bulky, though-too much fabric will make you look lumpy.

Straight Shooting
Why does the straight-leg/ stiff-denim combo work so well? The simple cut trims curves, while the stiff denim holds in bulges.

Best Jeans To Add Curves

Would you love to look curvier? You're in luck! The season's hottest style-a skinny jean with a high waist-totally works for you.

AVOID: A baggy boyfriend style that makes you look shapeless

High Style

This fit hits right at your true waist, which is perfect for you. Add a bold belt, and these jeans make your waist look even smaller, creating the illusion of an hourglass shape.

Ahead Of The Curve
For the hourglass effect to work, the leg should be slim enough to hug your shape. Look for denim that has a little stretch to skim over and emphasize curves-comfortably.

Narrow Passage

Make sure your jeans are slim through the thigh to create a long, lean silhouette. Baggy jeans will only make you look stocky.

Well Heeled
Wear your boot-cut jeans long over high heels (the higher, the better). Let the hem drape over most of the shoe, creating a longer line from hip to floor and adding inches to your legs.

Best Jeans To Slim Down

Want to look 10 pounds lighter? With the right pair of jeans, it's possible. Our pick? The trouser cut.

AVOID: Tapered Skinny jeans that accentuate your problem areas.

Great Wide Way

The wide trouser leg drapes from the waist to the ankle, hiding hips and thighs. A dark wash heightens the effect.

Balancing Act
A leg opening about as wide as the thigh (or a little larger) helps balance out hips.

Gonna to miss Spore Bay Run 07

This photo was the last year 2006 if I not wrong. Because the banner did not put the year 2006. hehe.....

Route Map 2007

When I was in bus express 518 which is head to east and saw the yellow small banners or posts on few posts. It stated saying that few roads closure for the coming SAFRA Sheares Bridge Run & Army Half Marathon 2007 that held on 26th August 2007, Sunday. I did not realized that time really flies very fast and barely two weeks more to go.

Sadly that I have to give it a miss due to my pregnancy till November 2007. And also the Standard Chartered Run Marathon 2007 which is held on 3rd December 2007 that day is still having my confinement period. Cannot sign up both events this year. *tap on my forehead*

Checking the website of SAFRA website about Singapore bay run and there is a new change for this year run which is much better than 2006. And the route of 2006 was 10km has changed to 12km for this year. Website said Runners will run Singapore's scenic waterfront, right through the heart of colorful Civic and Cultural districts, alongside iconic monuments and up the breathtaking Benjamin Sheares Bridge.

I actually planned to sign up for 21k run with my hubby this year. But hopefully the route map will repeat the same for next year. hmhm... after my confinement period in December 2007 and I have to pick up a lot of effort and hard work to build up my stamina again before start run training next January 2008. *evil smile* hope time fly very very .... fast and I do not have to wait for day comes patiently.

Received Escada Rocking Perfume today

Just collected this perfume which was under registered mail from Singapore Post Centre. I only paid for this perfume $50.00 + $3.00 (registered mail) = $53.00 to his account on Monday night then received it today friday. Smooth delivery,ya.


This seller (stevenshaking888) is extremely efficient and honest enough to put his return address on back of box in case it is under delivery. Unlike the other local sellers wont do it either.


Escada Rocking 100ml Perfume was wrapped in bubble wrapping to protect being broken during delivery. I took perfume out and it was in a great condition that shown description in his auction. It is not like knockoffs or immitations. The perfumes he is selling is almost every real like the ones at department stores. But he sells at very very reasonable prices and dont anyhow charge at high prices for perfumes.


Taken this picture of perfume box for you to see so that you will or may feel secure of buying perfumes from him in future. For me, I have no problem with him as I have been his regular buyer who bought perfumes from him for almost 2 years already.


I still love every Escada perfumes since 2002 or 2003 and never switch to other branded of perfume. I like the smooth & feminine scent of escada and the colorful glass perfumes are great designed beautifully. I had tried every versions of Escada perfumes such as sentimental, mangetic beat, island kiss, pacific parasdise and lily chic. Supposed to order new version - Escada Sunset Heat 100ml perfume from this seller but it was the last piece SOLD OUT already. So sad so I decided to order this instead. He will update me if Sunet heat perfume stock available.

Not only Escada, also have other perfumes such as LV, Gucci Envy Me, Hugo Boss, CK and many. You are welcome to either email him or sms him if you have any doubts or enquiries about perfumes which you want to ask.

Here is his auction link: *for you to see*
