The Eve of 30

Time check: 3AM. Location: Kuala Lumpur. It is still 28th May in England as I blog on the past and I am secretly hoping my favourite football team would win on this very day. Champions League Final between Barcelona and Man Utd! Can the Red Devils win in their so-call home turf - The Wembley stadium?

Turning to the big 3 has been great so far. Though it seems just like any other ordinary day,  but thanks to my friends and colleagues, they had made the difference. Now, what did I do on the eve of my birthday? Time to recall from my almost recovered hang-over physique...


Celebrated my birthday in the office with a nicely written birthday card - "Mummy Cindy" - (very meaningful messages inside, so thank you everybody!) and a beautifully wrapped birthday pressie from my colleagues!



They asked me what I want for my birthday, and I said, "I don't know what I want! Maybe toys?" Cuz I don't really think of myself anymore and all I can think of is my son, my beautiful baby Hayden. So my birthday present is a present for my son! :D Thanks for buying this perfect gift for me! I love it!



Night time, night out with my friends. First at La Bodega: Margarita, Long Island, and the traditional must-have-drink-that-makes-you-drunk drink, Flaming Lamborghini! Then at WIP: A bottle of Bombay Saphire! What a total knock out!



My favourite tiramisu presented to me when the clock striked 12! OMG! I AM 30!

From Dome, to La Bodega and finally to WIP, thank you SGs for spending this beautiful night with me. We rocked BSC through and through! Friends forever!

One More Week Before the Big Move In

In a week's time, my hubby and I will be moving in to our new HOME. For the past weeks, we have been busy  - hubby busy building his "empire" at work whilst I, being the organized, creative freako, took the responsibility of making sure our home looks perfect to us. Thank goodness for my hubby's flexibility, he could hop over to our house to make sure things are ok as and when I need him to, whenever I cannot get off work in between the working hours.

This afternoon, we arranged cleaners to clean the entire house today. The house was a mess initially but when we came back to pick them up 5 hours later, the whole house turned sparkling clean! Like magic! We can't wait to move in - our favourite spot in the house: The big cozy balcony that faces the reserved forest and most importantly we get to escape the massive peak hour Cheras traffic!

Furnitures will be delivered on Tuesday and Wednesday and there are still a few more small tiny items yet to be completed and we all hope it could be done before next Saturday! (If it doesn't, I'm going to give the contractor another round of lecture! You wouldn't want to mess with pregger ladies I tell ya. We have short fuse you know).

My MIL will be flying down with her maid tomorrow to do another round of cleaning for the next few days for us before they both return to Brunei, whilst my parents are preparing all the cookery stuff for the big moving-in ceremony next Saturday. They are doing this for the love of their children - US! We absolutely love our parents very much. What would we do without them??!

This post is specially dedicated to our Mom, Dad (The Ngs and the Wongs): Tim and I love you very very much. Thank you for doing this for us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Furnitures Dilemma?!

1st July 2010. This is going to be a very very very important month for both Tim and I. Why? Its because we will be moving out and staying on our own at Bangsar South City. I reckon this month will pass by real fast and my anxieties are building up due to few matters:-

a) I cannot be involved in the moving of furnitures.
New furnitures are scheduled to move in on 21st July. I won't be there to witness it. Or rather, I CAN'T be there to witness it. Not that I'm being superstitious or being traditionally hindered by pregnancy myths and what not. Its because practically everyone especially my mother and grandmother specifically forbid me to be involved. Good for me? Not entirely... cuz I am one that has the eye of creativity (or I think I do) and I think I have the in-born talent in knowing perfectly well how and where the furniture would be best placed in a house =) and on 21st July, I wont be there to direct the process!

b) Dining Table & Chairs from Brunomenzi
Apart from the rest of the furnitures that comes from Cellini, our mahogany dining table & chairs are ordered directly from Brunomenzi's magazine. Yes! From the magazine! As there wasn't one in the showroom, our dear capable saleslady Ms Emily showed us the picture of this dining table and chairs that best suit our taste. And by the look of the picture, in less than a minute, we placed the order! It is beautiful. But.... now that I think of it, will a 1500mm diameter table (5 feet) fit our 1400 sq.ft home? What if the place that we planned to place our dining table can't fit this table? What if the 6 pieces of dining chair makes the whole house seems smaller than it is? What if its too chunky? There's so many what ifs!

c) Baby crib, Baby pram, Baby stuffs
We haven't bought any of these essential items yet. I'm now in my 5 months pregnancy, what if my stomach gets too big for me to shop later on? Oh dear!

Ok... I think I sounded too pessimistic or rather overly-worried-for-nothing. By the way, did I mentioned that I had a weird dream last night about me picking my dog's eye out? Eww...

I'm Back!

Gosh! I think this is the longest period ever for not updating my blog. The truth is, for the past few weeks, i do not have the tiniest interest of wanting to login into the cyberspace.. I wonder why...

This is going to be a short note, as I know I would have lots to talk about 2 weeks from now. Now is just not the right time yet :) So, be patient, and I'll fill you in with the details :D

Renovation of our new home in Andalucia starting this Monday and the contractor and my FIL predicted it will not be another 3 months before we can move in. As I sit here in my room, thinking about my family, in few months time, I will be living on my own with my hubby. 29 years of being together with my parents and my brother, and now the thought of moving out seems pretty surreal. Ok ok.. i'm being emo here.. but I am definitely going to miss them. Us in Bangsar, them in Cheras...wow. I have to start washing my own clothes now. Buying my own breakfast. Cooking my own dinner. CLEANING THE HOUSE! Damn! I need a maid...

Another good piece of news that was given to me couple of days ago and this time it involves money. I love my job, thats all i can say :) Thank you boss!

Till my next rant... get ready for the next big news in my next post. Ciou!
