heh! i got a bit of free time and i miss blogging. :p hmmm....i got so much to rant about. maybe i should just summarise them. =)

ever since the incident with the fat stalker, i'm on a lookout for a nice, big bag that i can stuffed a lot of things including my milk bag. currently, im carrying avent microfibre insulated shoulder bag and a medium sized handbag, a gift from a group of close colleagues. i hang these bags on one shoulder sometimes one bag on each shoulder. i love to carry a lot of things in my handbag. therefore, when the handbag feels light, i'd keep worrying if i'd left something behind. some people wondered what i had in my bag that it looks bulky. *blushed*

well....these are the items that i always have in my bag -
- a mobile phone

- a cardholder

- my wallet

- a bunch of keys (home & office - in case i come early and the last to leave)

- a water bottle to quench thirst or eat my supplements

- my pills box (to store my supplement capsules or softgels)

- a packet of wet tissue (in case i need to go to the toilet and there's no taps. for what i know only toilets in jcc, tkc, west coast food centre and places where there's more malay community(?) have toilets with taps. i think water is better at cleaning right after you've done your business?hmmm...)

- 3 packets of dry tissues (in case, im down with runny nose)

- a magazine (sometimes they are the new ones sometimes outdated :p)

- a small pouch (which i keep my nail clipper, axe oil, a miniature perfume, vicks vaporub)

- foldable brolly

- work notes

- a journal

- a small box of biscuits

- a bar of candy or chocolate

- my spectacles cloth

- some flyers (i got 'em while exiting from the mrt which sometimes i forgot to throw away)

- work folder (sometimes i bring back my work)

- laptop (sometimes i bring it back to work from home)

- my ameda breast pump (i bring it back on fridays when the office is having contractors to clean the carpets or for whatever reasons over the weekends cos it's my MOST valuable item in the office :p)

- my errr.....errr... feminine towels for light and heavy days :p

- and of course, not forgetting my avent ebm bag


......sooooo that explains why my bag is BIG and HEAVY and i'm in need of a NEW bag. *hint hint*

*********************************************************************************

it's been 2 months now since i started work after on 8 weeks long on maternity leave. the moment i sat in my "cosy" chair, i felt im not quite ready to start work. i beg the temp to stay a lil longer but she insisted that she wanted to go for a vacation with her mother. and what i dreaded most is coming right when i'm still trying to "warm up", the boss presented me with deadlines for this assignment, that reports, this ad-hoc project, that this that this that this........bla bla bla

i WISH i could carry the pc and banged it on his head!!

Aaarghhhh!!!!!!

...and now im soo tempted to clear my other 4 weeks of maternity leave. i just cleared 3 days of maternity leave so far and clearing more till Dec 1st. =) sometimes, when im in no mood to work, i'd just smsed the boss to say im on urgent leave. haha!! i feel gooodddd.......

***********************************************************************************

motherhood - it's an exciting journey to a new phase of life. thw whole family is excited with the arrival of the lil one. she's the centre of attention for now. the apple eye of both maternal and paternal granparents. both me and husband now takes the 2nd place in each our priority but we never neglect one another. it's just that we're competing to win the heart of the lil one. crazy parents we are. :p

if today, daddy bought the baby a pair of overalls and a pair of shoes and 2 pairs of socks, tomorrow, mommy got the baby 3 pairs of cute lil dresses and 3 pairs of socks. heh! but of course we dont to this everyday, otherwise, our pockets will burnt sia!

and the baby is enjoying every attention she received. sometimes when we leave for work, we try not to adore her sooo much cos it'll dampen our mood of the day to see her sleep so peacefully with different styles and nothing to worry about unlike us the adults....haizz....i just wish i could join her in slumber. i want to become a baby too... lol!

she's now learning to turn over but never really got on her tummy. i've seen her doing it many times when she was 2 months old. to-date no progress yet. perhaps the head a bit too heavy or maybe the butt or maybe the bonchet tummy. she's getting more and more talkative and blabbering in her baby language. she loves people to talk and sing to her and she'll go all giggly and sometimes laughing out loud. and ouhhh!! she loves to stand and jumping up and down. mentang2 kaki dah kuat....

she love to read books....i mean i read she stare at the pictures and watched my facial expressions. :p she loves to kick her pillows all over the place. what i do she must follow. i showed my mom something and she'll raised her head to errr...take a peek too. kepo kan? kepo macam daddy dia agaknya :p

pictures? errr....many many .... but no time to upload lah. actually.....its just me. im a lil lazy to update pictures here. i'll get the daddy to update with her pictures soon.

***********************************************************************************

the hubby got me a new phone. =) well....actually he likes the phone more than i do. but because he already placed an order for this model and the staff reserved it for him and it came with the colour which he dislikes....thus, he presented to me.

chet!

anyway.....rezeki jangan di tolak....yer tak? :p

oh! the colour of the phone is actually fuschia...and not as in the displayed pix. that's why he's reluctant to carry the phone.

i havent meddle with the phone yet and thus, could not provide reviews. this is considered an old model already..... :p

i had so many things to write here due to my long absence from blogging. but due to time constraint @ work :p , i'd just share this incident yg membingitkan saya.
*********************************************************************************

the question is this -
DO I LOOK LIKE AN INDONESIAN OR A FILIPINO?

read on and you'll know why the above.....


as it is.... i've to clear my maternity leave by 1 dec 06. thus, i took a bit here and there. actually more to anytime i felt like taking leave :p if i dont feel like working.....i'll just come to work...clear urgent tasks.....take leave form....bla bla bla to boss and voila! leave approved. yes its kinda easy for me to apply for leave these days....how nice!


and so it was a rainy day. bad day to wear skirt to work. and oh yes! deadline in 2 days time and boss away on business trip. ahhh!! so i have to work from home in case he called. i drop by clifford centre to have lunch. well....actually i had an appointment with my insurance agent. after which we went our separate ways and i had to answer the call of nature urgently.


while i was frantically looking ard for the toilet signage, i notice there's this man - fat, paunchy, semi-bald man looking at my way....top to toe and following me where i go. i realised only when he suddenly appeared behind my back. thats when i felt goosebumps.


he: kamu dari indonesia yah? *nak eksen slang bachin konon*
me: huh?!?! *gave a very furious look*
he: kamu dari indonesia mana? jawa barat? jakarta?
me: sorry?!?!
he: are you filipino? u lost way? *ehhh!! org tua keparat nie....dia spekong pulak...*
me: excuse me!!! i'm a singaporean.....now back off before i shout "rape!!!"
he: sorry...sorry! i thought u lost yr way. u carry many bags.
*...and he walked off quickly*


all this took place while i was at the upriding escalator. it was 2.30pm after lunch hour. so can expect there was no crowd. then i saw the signage. darn! i missed it and had made one big round and had unfortunately bumped into that fat stalker!! as i was rushing towards the toilet, i saw the man watching me walking towards the toilet.


alamak! i regretted mentioning the word 'rape" sia....i just pray that he'd just leave me alone. i quickly dash into one of the cubicle...watched for male footsteps before i decided it was safe for me to answer the call of nature.

that was when i started to ponder - do i look like one typical indonesian or filipino lugging around this milk bag and my big, fat handbag full of garbage. maybe i do. like rouge used to say "macam makcik siput" hubby said "hmmm....yeah a bit"

liddat i've to find bigger bag to store my ebm ah?? or maybe dont wear skirt when i've many bags to carry? or dont carry all the bags on one shoulder? or i shouldnt carry around a big,fat handbag with its contents almost pouring out? or i should hang a placard around my neck - im a breastfeeding mommy on the go.

*sigh*
