Colorful Brickfields

After much effort in trying to get Ann to look at the camera... 

on the theory of planning & conspiracy

Date: 23rd March 2011. Its my 3rd xray check up at Pantai Medical Centre. While waiting for Vj to arrive at 830, i decided to do a few things. Firstly i cut my long nails, read my bible, chat with Mum. There's a girl who is used to parking her Car right in front Of our house. Usually we never see her & the same happens in the evening wen she returns. However, today, by luck she was still in her car putting on her makeup when I spotted her. I told mum casually that the girl who has bought the parking spot on contract has arrived & she's still in her car! Mum was adamant that I should go & talk to her & so I did! Funny and rather sarcastic conversation I had. Anyway she asked for a contract extension till next Tues. & I said ok & came back in. Shortly after, VJ came over & I hopped into his car. Following that were series of un-meaningful events.. Drop off @ lobby, VJ goes to basement to look for parking while I hop to the x-ray dept to register, VJ joins me, I have my x-ray taken, collect result & hop on to have breakfast before doctors appmt at 10am. Then it was English Muffin, Kapitan chicken pie & mocha @ Starbucks & then we were off to the doctors visit. Very brief xray explanation & I was given another 3 weeks of MC!!! Wow now that totals up to 6 weeks of sitting @ home?? Sheesh... I felt funny, mixed emotions & I wasn't sure why because just minutes before going in for consultation, I was hoping for an MC extension! Why? Coz CSC was where I was supposed to go to report for duty on the 24th (tomorrow). Unfortunately, Muhan SMS me the night before & said that they refused to pay for me to go there. This disappointment is what held me back. But another 3 weeks is tight rope too. What if there is no longer a position in PJ office? My heart was no longer with Subang office to go back there. After speaking to Muhan, we agreed that I will inform him on the 28th whether I can join or otherwise.. On another note, I decided to go over to KL office to meet Mel & speak to her directly about the situation. This needs to be done on Friday (Tom). So after appointment events were surrounding us looking for parking at MidValley. VJ who is usually patient had his patience tested to the limit but still endured it. After a painstaking 20mins or so we finally got one spot. First stop was GSC. It was Wednesday! Half price tics!! Unfortunately no nice shows worth watching was playing so movie plan cancelled. Next was Jusco to redeem his birthday gift vouchers. Oh yes, prior to that, I randomly walked into A Cut Above to enquire on the rate for balding. RM115 for any type of restyle. Then I left to follow VJ to jusco. Along the way, vj kept commenting on my funny balding idea & said that i'll look really sick since i was also limping then. He even said tat he will not see me for 3months after if i do cut my hair.. Funnily, while we were walking back to the car VJ suggested we go bald anyway. I was taken aback since by this point I didnt want to do it. I thought I'll drop by another day & get it done since I was totally cashless the whole day! I gave all the money I had for mum to buy gas that morning & the other balance amount was used to buy groceries when I took mum & the kids to Giant on Tuesday. I was supposed to withdraw from the ATM but smartly I left the card in another bag!! As I felt awful to ask VJ to go eat, I suggested we head home instead. He insisted tat I go cut hair instead & I agreed & went! He walked me in & left to wander around. In between I had to decide on the exact length I wanted & if a little short is enough.. Tough calls to make & with the fact tat VJ wasn't next to me, my gut feel was that this is my decision, I shud make the call myself. True enuf he told me the same thing when we met.. Hair turned out fabulous! I began to grow loving it more & more as we kept walking & talking about it. My crowning Glory was chopped, trimmed & shaved off for a cleaner look. A lot of mixed reactions and comments but it didn't matter at all to me. Today, being the 23rd also counts down to my turning 30!! Wow how momentus this moment is... Thanks to VJ for making today happen since if it wasn't for his insistence & my boldness to agree despite all his stupid remarks, today wouldn't have happened! & finally, after cracking my head for so long on what I should plan or do for my birthday, everything fell into place.. So what's the plan you may ask? Well, read on and the answers will unveil itself to u...

March 16

Both Ann and Tony antiques are unbelievable. I'm still at home on MC due to my fractured fourth toe. Another 1 week to go before I am able to go back to work.
Since it rained all morning, I decided to stay in bed until 12noon!
Tony kept checking on me in the room to see if i was getting up or not. Occasionally he tries to climb onto the bed to show me his toy car and play. As soon as he saw me, he tried to get my crutches for me. In that anxiety, he dropped it on himself and started to cry.

He was so cute!!! He came again to try and help and this time with some guidance he managed to get it to me. He was soo excited on being able to help. What else? They came to share my rice during lunch.
While mum was scratching her back using the scratching stick, Ann waited in turn for mum to scratch hers as well. That was really funny.!

Ann has started to talk a lot these days and her ramblings are never ending.

March 13 - Tony turns 2

On this day, their daddy decided to take the boy out for a treat! How wonderful! Their 2nd meet up in 2 years since Tony was born. I was excited for them. They went to the Zoo and had a blast there. Some trail of events are: Ann vomitted in the car on the way there, it started raining midway while at the Zoo, Tony was scared of almost everything and then they were at Pizza for dinner. And then they headed home with lots of presents. 

Me and Sharal also got them a present each. A toy car with a remote control for the boy and a drum set for Ann. If they could write an essay on the day they had, they'd end it with this line: ".. kami merasa amat letih tetapi gembira..."

 Some of the other pictures i took on my phone didnt seem to download so the only one i have captured here is his cake which we cut on the Saturday when everyone was around. This was coupled with Pizza and KFC too.

 

The birth of the blog

An idea which started 2 years back has finally been kicked off. (YES, i vouch that I WAS indeed a procrastinator).

Y this blog? Well, looking at the kids antiques makes me think that they should be documented.. For memory purpose.. I wish someone documented my childhood so I can revisit the first 5 years of my existance. My memory has very little memoirs of those years.. Unfortunately..

So, as an aunt, the least I can do, besides passing down some good and bad habits is to document them! If you enjoy my posts, feel free to comment. Otherwise, thank you for visiting.
