still VERY upset...

over the brutal killing of the pomeranian at Sengkang!

I wanna do something! SPCA and the police had gone to the blocks and went door to door to distribute flyers. Hoping someone will step forward to identify the killer. No one did!!! It is APPALLING how those bastards can be so indiffernt and choose to stay silent!

I wanna do something. All I can do now is post on fb but i'm upset how even the people on my friends list are indifferent about it. Out of my 244 friends, only Aaron and Ginny bothers to spread this around. We have to fan the flames and not let this brutal crime die down. Gosh.. do people care so little???

I've been thinking.. will writing to the MP of Sengkang help?? I went to PAP website and if i'm not wrong, the MP is Charles Chong. Or perhaps pasting hate flyers on every floor of Blk269A and 269B. Shame those who knew and choose to keep quiet.

God, I'm begging you... Please do something.

After i was done with work at 11pm (yes 11pm), I was about to work on my barcelona hotel (the metro and train network is confusing! Hoping it's not as bad as Paris's!). Then I got so caught up with this pomeranian death.. saw the pic on SPCA fb page and started feeling depressed all over again.

This world we are living in sucks. Sometimes I wonder if God ever regret creating us. Making men superior to all. We don't deserve it. I wish for Narnia, where animals can talk and have a voice.

*depreessed so stay away*

Salted veg and duck soup...

....just NOT meant for me :(

Been craving for it for weeks. Only managed to get it at the stall at PP after 4 tries! It is always sold out and finally when they have it, it is not ready and i got to wait 10mins! I couldn't. The last time was when I got Zack to buy it for me. Perhaps he'd have better luck. He did! But it was awful and nowhere like the one at Irvins :S

So today, we brought Megan to Godpa Marky's so he could play with her and arranged dinner with Chris + Elynne @ Irvins which is 10mins walk from Marky's. Guess what? THEY DON'T HAVE IT!!! *sigh* Just not meant for me......

Oh well....

Something good happened today.. at least.

I managed to snag the last 3 tickets from London to Barcelona at 5 pounds!!! Itinerary tweaked then cos the initial plan was to travel to Marid first. At 5pounds, we would fly to Barcelona first without a thought! So yes, very happy indeed. Nothing beats getting a steal ;) Decided to train from Barcelona to Madrid instead of flying. Zack balked at driving... haha. Now i'm going to source for cheap Madrid-London tickets! Next up... hotels! Then trying to convince Zack to agree to a side trip to Paris. Not pining much hopes cos we went there for our honeymoon and he had been there twice already.

Should I check my work email later? *grimace*

This mother still has got what it takes... take that hubby! *smirk*

Yesterday was a busy day. Had to get 2 cheques signed and it took a whole blardee afternoon. But as always, i try to utilize my time out.

Didn't wanna trouble my dear FIL, I decided to take Megan out on my errands.

4pm: Tanjong Pagar.

After I got 1 bank signatory (@ Lippo Centre), I popped up at visit Theresa! Theresa is my ex-boss and we are still in contact. She is just like a mother to me :) Know she will love to see Megan. Only saw Theresa and Sam and they were gushing over Megan. All said she is so chubby.. haha. Megan warmed up real quick so managed to charm them. Theresa and Sam said i've lost alota weight. And look like my old self already *grins*

5.30pm: Meet Rachel at Raffles Place MRT to pass her Megan.

Plan was to leave Megan at Rachel's office (so she can show off her niece.. haha) while I go to PZ's office @ Standard Chartered Bank. Long flight of steps so i can't take Megan with me (stroller). Short walk between 2 offices so it's a good plan. After I got the other signature secured, I went over to Rachel's office @ One Marina Boulevard.

Megan as usual got alot of aunties all gaga over her. We will hear stories when my sis goes to work on Monday.. haha.

6.00pm: Go home together with Rachel!

Godma is gonna be so jealous! I better take Megan to her office next week (so this grandma can showoff to her colleagues) cos I know she will be bugging me! :P

In connection to the post title, i'm relating an incident @ Stand Chart Building to show that this mother of 1 still has what it takes! I got picked up in the lift by this ABC:

In the lift...
ABC: What phone is that? It's really nice.. (what's with my hp seriously?!!)
me: It's the Experia, Sony Ericsson. Not the iphone.
ABC: Yeah, i had the iphone before and i don't know what the fuss is about.
me: Yeah, everyone has an iphone these days and I refused to get one! I like SE, it takes great pictures...

chat on mobile phone continues....

ABC: Do you work here?
me: Oh no I don't. I'm here on an errand.
ABC: Oh no wonder I've not seen you around.

Reached lobby.. said goodbye, goes out. I walked off... ABC caught up with me.

ABC: Hey, i've been here only a couple of weeks and i'm wondering if you'd like to have drinks some day?
me: Oh i'm sorry.. but i'm really busy looking after my daughter.
ABC: Oh okay...
me: Yup. See you, bye!

And of course, I HAD to tell Zack.. hahahhah! Have to keep him on his toes *winks* He was really interested and started quizzing me when he got home from work.. ahahaha! Oh well... sure an ego booster for a mother with a 1 year old daughter. Have not lost it yah! I think it's the hair......... *LOL* no not kidding, seriously!

Good saturday morning~

Had a wonderful night :) *stretch and yawn* Bummer Zack is working today :( The hectic week is OVER! Just hoping no meetings crops up cos i got tons of paperwork to do in the aftermath! Today i will just enjoy my megan and not worry about work. Perhaps just tackle some emails tonight. I PROMISE I WILL GET MY TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS DONE THIS WEEKEND! Here's no. 3 ;P

My member's wife touched my arm and said to the others, "She is so pretty!" Ermm.. Ok thanks *shy*

Do all dogs go to Heaven?

Having my 1st solo event and trying hard not to tear whenever i think of Amber. I couldnt see her off, just say goodbye. It's time for her to move on. She is suffering now. Rachel and Andrew did their best and everything they could. Crap i gotta stop. Im tearing now.

"Just window shopping at Expo okay!"

And he didn't get that laptop *LOL* Also thanks to Chris who dissuaded him. We ended up getting a tower fan. With Megan's poking her fingers into everything these days and one of her fav pasttime is taking the fancover off, we need to stop using that fan and get something safer. See, we bought something we NEED instead ;) (Chris + Elynne are so sweet, they fixed it up for us! :))

Yesterday: Koi and pepper crabs, Ju is a happy woman!

Only thing was, Megan fell asleep before we reached home :( I feel something amiss whenever I don't tuck her to bed.

Meeting later at 5pm.
This week is full of meetings and events *sigh*
And my throat is starting to hurt again.

Wait.... Pappe's barking... the doorbell is ringing!
Could it be Mr Postman?!!!

Our Sunday date!

window shopping at parkway followed by crabs at joo chiat!! its been more than 1 year! Pepper crabs.. here Ju comes!

found my keypouch!!!

After it went missing for weeks... i finally found it in my blue bag!!!
it's awfully strange cos i am SO sure i checked that bag and it wasn't in there!

I was seriously bummed cos this keypouch has tons of sentimental value - Zack bought this for me during our honeymoon in Florence. It is part of the matching set of my honeymoon present, a wristlet. Zack too bought a gucci keypouch. While i'm not a big fan of Gucci, i absolutely love the little globe charm. The minute Zack showed me the wristlet, i just HAD to get it. The keypouch is just too cute to NOT buy.. haha. After 3 years, it's still in VERY GOOD condition. See the pic above. It's not flatten, scratched and banged up (pssst... like Zack's.. heh) I take very good care of my things ;)

Ju is a happy girl!
And present no. 3 has left LA! Taking too long lah.. i'm anxious.

Headache's gone! Done with an exco meeting.
1 more, 2 more events to go.
Things are starting to heat up.
But no work for tonight. I need a break.
Was so busy the entire day i forgot to eat - yeah i know.

On my way home in the cab, i started to feel nauseous. Too hungry. Too much energy expended.

At least one good thing came out of all these stress.. i've lost some weight! Well, not the way i wanted (unhealthy) but at least i'm almost looking like my pre-preg self. Johnny (my stylist) said I don't look like I was ever pregnant, tummy is flat. Back to my old shape (yeah thank God for it! No widened hips and thunder thighs!). When my streaks come in, i really will look like the old ju! Can't wait.. i now just have to find the time.

Megan is sleeping with mummy tonight! Just like last night :)

a tired post...

9pm: A time where most will wind down after a day's work, good dinner and relax. Watch some tv, read a book, surf the net.

I'm waiting for Megan to sleep before I get back to work. Fact is, I can leave her be, she will go to sleep on her own. But i'm just dragging it out, spending as much time listening to her babbling. I'm just so tired. I don't wanna go back to work.

Feel like i'm constantly working, if not physically, mentally. Stressed to the max. My shoulders are drooping and sometimes I wonder how I made it this far and if I can make it much further. I'm.just.so.tired.

But Megan is my comfort. My joy. My reason. My life. I look at her and think.. Everything is worth it. Every frustration, anxiety, tear, stress, headache is worth it. Watching her grow up and thrive is my biggest reward. And everyday, I thank God for it.

2 meetings.
2 events.
Now til next week.
Let me live through these first.


alright... back to work *sigh*

Watching 'The Nanny' at 10 to 1..

...waiting for my hair to dry. And i'm hungry :( Long day tomorrow, better sleep soon. Loves watching Megan sleeps :)

'IT' has been submitted last night *gulps*

now we pray.......

On another note: I've been nursing this slight sorethroat. Please don't let me fall ill. I've not fallen ill once since BEFORE i got pregnant - Megan is already 1yr old so go figure. Megan too hasn't fallen ill too! Apart from her UTI where she had low grade fever for half a night. No pesky cough, cold etc.. and i'm not ready for her to start! Keeping her as healthy as possible.

Busy week....

It's on the way!

My 3rd present is on the way!!! *beams*

feeling lazy....

before I go any further, I'd like to point out the post below was posted by Megan!

In the afternoon, we were in the room packing the clothes and Megan was on our bed, fiddling with my hp. Don't ask me how she did but yes, she got out of screen saver mode (you gotta swipe the screen) and posted a post on my blog. Hahahaha! Genius yeah my daughter *winks*

Got alota stuff to do, wash toilet etc... but i'm feeling so lazy!
How now brown cow??
Think i'll sleep early and wake up early tomorrow :P
Work: Hmmm... nothing urgent.
Hsechores: Plenty.

Got some pretty good shots but lazy to hook Alfie to the com.
I really need to get that SD card device so i upload pics easily - I don't like cables!

Zack and I need to sit down to plan our europe itinerary. Then again, maybe i'll just go ahead and book. When it comes to travel, Zack goes with whatever I plan (he just needs to know the country of departure/arrival.. haha) cos his wifey makes the best travel arrangements. Don't believe me, just ask him ;)

See.. so many things to do! So little time!

Think i'd hit the sack now.
Beat.
Slept at 4am last night.
Setting my alarm at 7am.
Get 20mins of work done. Wash 1 toilet.
By then Megan should be up - unless it rains and she sleeps in again!

Niteeessss...

Playing with my new toy!! :)

:: a new scent
:: a new toy
:: and shopping for my 3rd present on ebay now! :P

or maybe not.

I just spent a good 30mins responding to bday wishes on facebook. Think it's only polite to reply to everyone individually instead of a generic post to all.

Then another 45mins soothing Megan. She started fussing at 2.30am. Teething? Somehow when I switched on the sidelight and fan it helps to calm her down a lil. I'm now in her room and she's babbling and clapping! Looks like she's not in any discomfort so I can go back to our room. She don't need me ard and can sleep on her own. Just some nights she gets abit clingy and I indulge. We all need some comfort and sayang at times right?

Napped as Megan slept and woke up at 12midnight :S Got some work done. Tomorrow has another load. Just hope nothing new pops out. Happy that tomorrow's site visit is cancelled! Yayyy!

Gonna call Johnny tomorrow. STREAKS ARE COMING BACK!!!
