On a more serious note, (which made me regret spending RM300 at IKEA), I've been wanting to blog on the fuel price hike up.
Everybody knows we can't subsidize the fuel anymore. Watching the commodities closely for the past four years, I know that it is absurd that we are paying so low for the fuel while the other countries are suffering much.
What made me mad is nothing has been done to hamper the high cost for the rakyat. The government knows that for the past four years, in fact, since the Gulf War had started, the fuel price will hike up. What they have been doing is subsidizing it so that they won't lose so bad in the last election (tapi kalah jugak). When they can't no longer afford it, what they do is increasing it little by little.
Not telling the truth, or rather not facing the truth, will always backfire.
If Malaysian government was brave enough to face the truth, they would have buck up the transportation system, encourage more on non-fuel vehicles and other initiatives that people could use years ago. If these were done earlier, much earlier, people won't be suffering this bad.
And now, after a few weeks of announcing the hike up, I still DON'T SEE the real initiatives coming from the government. They still want to 'look good' by telling people that 'let's face it together'. Governemtn servant will be getting their monthly cheque splitted into two cheques which will only encourage them to spend instead of saving. Aku sungguh tidak faham.
None has been said about bucking up the public transportation. Could KL get as good as Sydney, where the routine buses came every 20 minutes during non peak hours and 10 during peak time?
Forget train. That will take up years. Dah terlambat kalau nak buat train lagi, yang subang jaya tu pun aku tengok tak siap siap lagi.
Buck up your buses routes.
Increase parking fees around busy areas so that people will take bus.
Encourage university students to use bike (BASIKAL, GEREK, SPEDA) by banning motorbikes and cars. I always feel that our local univ students are more luxurious that the overseas'. Omputeh dulu asyik kayuh basikal je gi class, kete tinggal rumah. Ini budak budak uni kita, ini lah masa nak cari awek kalau ada kereta.
Increase parking lots around train station. Or better still, increase (about 500%) the buses routes to the train station.
(I still regret that RM300 spent at IKEA. Should've spent that much on hair treatment instead)

Cincau
And Salman, I can now drink the air cincau tu!!
Tak payah nak buat gua jeles... Eish.. kawan macam ni pun ada ka...?!?!?!
Tak payah nak buat gua jeles... Eish.. kawan macam ni pun ada ka...?!?!?!
The 44 Days is Over!!
Seronok tak terkata! I am over my head!
So on the 45th day, we went to IKEA. I spent on unnecessary little things that cost near RM300. (kegedush!). Little things like green light mugs that I always eye on but never get to buy because the Man said , what for?
Then little pie dish that I think is cool to serve single pie to one person, like when Murali (who doesn't take beef) came and I made beef pie for everyone, I have to do extra chicken pie for him and he had to eat a lot more than he needs.
Then Azeuchry's train rail extension because I think he's getting bored with the number eight, or rather Mommy is boring going around the circle of number eight. Then CD cover for the Man because he had stacked about knee high of our CDs down the floor.
Little colorful plastic spoons, forks and knives and also the little colorful plastic glasses for Azeuchry which I always wanted to grab but the Man always said, what for?
The Five ringgit wall clock that i think will be broken soon but I am buying that to teach my Son on time management.
Little baskets that can be hung next to the changing table so that I don't have to bend taking wipes and nappies underneath the tables which can deteriorate my spine (eventhough I never change the little baby's diaper . The Man or the maid always get to that)
And that all costs near RM300.
:(
All in all, it is still a good celebration. Retail theraaphy is blissful.

Daily Update
Okay, that was a lame post on the pantang period.
Then , new hot updates, othen than the story of my waist size reduction:
1. David Cook is the new American Idol!
2. I can't wait for the final of AF6. My favorite was Nadia but her performance lately have been same-ol-same-ol. Lagu dia kot tak best. Was hoping she'll rock during final.
3. I also think Riz is superbly handsome especially when he is very open about his feelings for Nadia. Aku suka kalau ada case cinta cinta ni.
4. I am hooked with CSI. Being home 24/7, the only informative series are just them.
5. I am wondering, is Miami in Florida? Is it the capital of Florida? or is it Orlando where Disneyworld is? HOw come a state has too many hot cities?
6. I still can't do reading! My eyes got tired very fast. And I have like 5 or 6 newly purchased books to read. Geramnya. They are sitting proudly and quietly in the newly constructed book case. Buat show je lah.

21 days done, 19 more days to go
21st May.
Marking the 3 weeks of the newborn.
Marking 19 more days towards completion of the 40-days confinement period. Or known as period of pantang.
Pantang literally means ban.
It means I am banned from eating certain foods / doing certain things all through this 40 days.
I can't eat anything 'cold', like all the vegetables and fruits (with the exception of apple because the Malays can't rule out whether it is cold or not, carrot, sawi).
I can't drink anything cold. Everything must be suam or tepid.
I can't eat anything hot and spicy. Since the spices will get into the breast milk and upset the baby's tummy.
I mustn't let my big toes stumbles into anything or else I'd get into high fever.
Plus, there are certain things that I must do daily. And I have been doing them daily, religiously. Tak tipu punya..
I start the day with bathing with some leaves boiled with water. It is very refreshing and smells good.
Then there is a hot stone wrapped in a piece of clothes with some leaves underneath the cloth that is as big as four times your palms to be pressed over and over again my tummy.
During certain days, there is this lady who'll came to massage me. The first three massage-series were good, the next were painful.
Then certain days, I'd go for a tangas session where they'll be steaming hot water with herbs underneath my two legs and the steam will detoxify my whole body.
A hot oil is then rubbed onto my tummy.
Then I'll get the routines finished with cloth binded tightly around my waist which I shall not take off until the morning after.
Fooh. typing all these making my eyes blurry and my arms prickling with pain, what more doing it.

Two Weeks
It's been two weeks that the pink bundle has arrived. I am blissfully happy. I am tired. I am contented. All the feelings are mixed and sometimes it feels gooey.
However, I do miss work.
Most I'm worried of how Baie is handling the stress. Just the other day a colleague called me up to tell that he was damn stressful and blurted that he is dissapointed with the coal manager.
Yup. That's me. And Sihin. He could mean Sihin alone. But he could meant both me and Sihin. Or ONLY me.
I have to admit that meeting his expectation for the past there months have been very, very strenous. I do this way and found out that it is only quarterly completed. I do the other way around and he'll say that is not the thing I should be worrying about for now. Juggling around doing the operational tasks and the other that are being piled up on daily basis on my table, more are being piled up. I know I should have stayed at work a little bit more to finish up but at 5:00, I just couldn't take it looking at more are being piled up. He continously said that spending more time at my table up to 8:00 at night doesn't mean that I am being efficient. He is right.
I blamed it on the fact that there are supposed to be two people doing the job and I end up being the only one completing the job.
I blamed it on the fact that it is a new job and I am not used to the managerial function.
I blamed it on the fact that logistics managers are not cooperating.
He is a boss that I look up to. The one that I respect. My loyalty lies with him. However, it is such a dissapointment to know that he is dissapointed in me. For all I know, I have not been meeting his expectations.
Here I am, succumbing deeper into the dissapointment, knowing that I have 6 more weeks to not being able to do anything but feeling guilty and helpless of not being able to prove that I can do much more than this.

The Stork Had Delivered
Baby girl is finally here!
It was a tough labor.
I got stain in the morning, however decided to wait until more sign. My sister Yan was home, so Azeuchry will be fine with his favorite aunt.
Went to the office and more stains coming in. Quickly wrapping up the meeting after lunch with Puru and the LEs for the 3 months plan then the Man came to pick me up to the hospital. It was around 4 pm.
Nurse took me for CTG. Baby heart rate was fine. Was just dilating 2 cm. She told me to better go home. However, when Dr. Delaila came, she asked me to stay and induced me with that pill that will soften my cervic.
Got my epidural at around 8:30 pm. The Man was superbly supportive when the anasthetician (how to spell? ) poke the tiny needle to my back. Then got that drip for induce. At 12:00 midnight, I was only dilating 4cm. Half a night and only 2 cm opening?
Dr. Delaila came in around 12:00 just to check and she said I was hydrated. Baby heart rate was also fast. They put the water into my body. She broke my water bag. Meanwhile, leg was feeling very very numb.
Both me and the Man slept around 3 hours but I regularly got up to see the heart rate graphs.
At around 4:00, they prepared me for labor since I was already 8cm. Baby, mommy can't wait to see you!. 4:30 a.m., start pushing. God! It was a tough job. After 45 minutes, I gave up and asked for vacuum. Dr Delaila came and 5 minutes later, the girl beautifully popped out! She was 3.13 kg but I really thought she was big at the first glance. She cried. Daddy hushed her softly and azam to her, when she stopped. She was pretty! Pretty little bundle! She suckled immediately when they put her next to my breast before pushing her to nursery.
Dr stiched me up. Back was terribly in pain. Both Daddy and Mommy stayed in the labor room until 8:00 in the morning to wait for room. Puked several time. Didn't dare taking any sips of water. But needed pain killer terribly since the effect of Epidural was already worn off. The Man slept , anyway. Geram betul, mentang mentang dah deliver anak dia, contraction yang lepas labor tu dia buat tak tahu....
Took my breakfast around 8:30 then ponstan did kill the pain.
So wasn't really a tough labor for some of the macho mothers. First was induced. Then requested for epidural. Then pushing for 45 minutes before gave up. Then requsted for vacuum. Ape ape je lah korang nak kata. Most importantly , the baby was safely delivered. Safely out of my womb. Back to my arms within minutes. Tak macam Azeuchry dulu, kena tunggu 24 hours baru boleh jumpa since the lung was infected.
Alhamdullilah for the safe delivery, safe baby.

Malaysian Media
I like the fact the stories about the opposition leaders / icons are appearing in our media, if not all. The Star, The Sun are amongst the leading, I observed.
Never mind if the stories are biased. Never mind if the stories are written with the little or lot of judgments. The stories are coming out.
The latest I read is the interview with Anuar Ibrahim in The Star's Sunday's column. Never mind if he did look he wanted to convey the message that Khairy Jamaludin is infact powerful (well, he didn't say exactly but the fact he went to see KJ to get his passport approved somehow managed the perception towards that.. clever huh).
It is a satisfactory feeling knowing that I can judge the stories rather than keeping it under the carpet all the time. I was getting sick reading the paper nearing the Election when all it came out about is the then current leading parties's news. The electronic were worse, both TV and radio. They advertised just like the shampoo brand. Was really sick. Towards the end, people who were thirst for real stories, turned into blogs. Then they started being mad at bloggers.
Well, if you asked me, the only reason why they lost is because they conquered the media. They thought by not giving airtime to the opposition, people won't know what were going on. Reality was, people turned to other sources to get the stories, and bad stories people were getting. Why not came clean? Let the opposition tell their stories, you tell yours and let the people judge.
It was only when people was not given the freedom to judge, then people will start thinking that there are things you wanna hide.
I am not at the opposition side. I inclined to believe that the current leading government was actually a bit better than the opposition side. However, I was glad that UMNO did given a lesson. A bitter one, but a lesson is yet to be consumed.
Coming back to the Star's Saturday column on Anuar Ibrahim, well it indeed gave water to the thirsty ones. Real water.

37th Week
Went to SJMC for check up this morning. The baby has turned, alhamdullillah, really drove me mad all these while knowing that her head was still up.
Been having contraction. Was at Armada with Baie, MD and a supplier when I suddenly stopped talking. Baie poked, laughingly, 'eh kau dah nak bersalin ek?'.. Orang tengah sakit, lagi mau buat kelakar. Apa punya boss...
But the contraction didn't last for more than one minute. Had another five minutes after but then dissapeared altogether.
Back to SJMC story this morning. SJMC is undergoing a major construction, which they will transfer the original car park into a five storeys carparks and three storeys new hospital wing.
My EDD has been moved from original 4th May to 29th April then to 21st April then to 10th May then today, back to 21st April.
Baby weighed 3.2 kg this morning! Eee besarnya.. rabak aku.
Dr Delaila will grant me a week medical leave starting from 21st April and I still have loads to complete at work. God, give me strength!
So baby, when are you coming out really? Can mommy request you to come out after mommy's birthday? So that mommy will have a good birthday meal?

Popeye
The Li'l Kiddo is hooked on Popeye.
My sister had this two DVD with like 20 short stories of Popeye (which we enjoyed when we were kids). Li'l Kiddo found it and has ever since been playing the two DVDs over and over again.
The Man kept saying that, 'It's just a phase. He'll get bored of it"
Until we heard from the Li'l Kiddo's mouth stuffs like, "Hey mi spinach!", "Oh My Gosh!", "Shimmer me timbers".
The English is driving me crazy!!!
When my Pink Laptop arrives, we could then finally watch TV because he played his POpeye DVD on my Laptop. Believe me, this is the third week the Pink Laptop arrives and is my second time used for Blogging, my only cyber activity nowadays beside M2u and face book.
So back to him speaking good English, I was looking for substitute. Bought Barney the DVD. No-uh, definitely not his type of series.
The Man had just came back from the Pasar Malam and found DVD of The Elmo's World. So whether he'll like this one.

About Who's Covering Me When I'm Gone
Okay.. it's me, again.
I have not been updating you guys. Guess was afraid that my pregnancy story is boring. But, it's not just about the pregnancy for now. Work has been hectic (so you'll say that hey my work has always been hectic). But it is super duper hectic now since I have about hmmm 8 more draft contracts to be negotiated, finalized and signed. Can't let Ida does that.
So , have I written about the GM is proposing Ida to cover me up when I go for my two months leave?
He said it'll boost up her confidence. That she is berkebolehan. That I have to trust in my colleague.
However, tell me, how can I trust someone to do my job if she herself can't differentiate from which contract is she executing the shipment ? If she herself can't be sure that she's taking the price correctly? If she herself can't count how many contracts are there in her basket?
I let her do the basket price calculation the other day. She just couldn't. Well, she sat on it, shall I say. It would be very simple for her if she would have tracked down all the contracts she have in hands since the beginning.
She is a friend.
But I just couldn't wait for the new guys to come and she can easily walk out from the Team.
I really hope Baie is right. I really hope Ida won't walk out on him when he needed help most.
Baie made the choice, anyway, why should I care huh?

Update
So update of mine:
1. I have not received my Pink Note Book from DELL. It had been two weeks they got my cheque and they said the part is not here yet.
2. I went to see the CEO for the second time last week and My No. 2 was not around. My No. 1, like always, fooled himself again. He simply pulled out graphs from my notebook when the CEO asked about the stock and not being able to explain the situation clearly to him later. Duhh! Apasal la bodoh sangat boss aku ni. Kot ye pun, study le dulu ape ke bende nye yang kau nak tunjuk tuu.... He came out from the room and said, 'I said exactly the same thing that you said but CEO doesn't believe me...! Why is he picking on me?". Urghh... I almost answered, because of your pea-sized brain, idiot.
3.I received four new younglings at work. Baie has implied that I should be training them, that he doesn't wanna have anything to do with them.
4. Baie is promoting my ex-boss and Ida. I told him that it is his choice and he should know who has stood by him during the crisis, who had walked out and who had acted that there's nothing to worry about. I told him to be aware since I 'll be leaving him for two months and he is to face consequence if these two are not performing.
5. Turned out to be my ex-boss did perform when Baie is not around! He prepared the slides himself, led the negotiation and went to see the CEO for the approval. Fair enough. Baie laughed around saying that today he feels that Sihin does earn his seniormanagership. I said you are happy because you have proven yourself right. So, I swept the dust under the carpet, hoping hard that Sihin won't fail Baie when I am not around.
So 5 updates about work.
I can't wait to go for my delivery and two months leave. BUT, what will happen at work scared me.
1. I have not received my Pink Note Book from DELL. It had been two weeks they got my cheque and they said the part is not here yet.
2. I went to see the CEO for the second time last week and My No. 2 was not around. My No. 1, like always, fooled himself again. He simply pulled out graphs from my notebook when the CEO asked about the stock and not being able to explain the situation clearly to him later. Duhh! Apasal la bodoh sangat boss aku ni. Kot ye pun, study le dulu ape ke bende nye yang kau nak tunjuk tuu.... He came out from the room and said, 'I said exactly the same thing that you said but CEO doesn't believe me...! Why is he picking on me?". Urghh... I almost answered, because of your pea-sized brain, idiot.
3.I received four new younglings at work. Baie has implied that I should be training them, that he doesn't wanna have anything to do with them.
4. Baie is promoting my ex-boss and Ida. I told him that it is his choice and he should know who has stood by him during the crisis, who had walked out and who had acted that there's nothing to worry about. I told him to be aware since I 'll be leaving him for two months and he is to face consequence if these two are not performing.

Update
Tot I owed u guys some updates of my life.
1. Abt two weeks ago, the Number 1, dragging No. 2, went to London and a crisis happened. So, during the CEO Update which No. 1 and No. 2 went weekly (well, No. 1 just kinda tag a long, it was No. 2 who took the heat and all), guess who went to take up the heat? Me! It was my first encounter with the CEO, who fired like machine gun. I knew the firing would come, prayed a lot that I won't break down and cry. Dah nak kena fire, nak buat camne. BUt the most important thing is, he approved whatever mitigation plan I put forth on the table. So that's kinda satisfying!
2. We went for check up to see the baby inside my womb. Yup. It's still a girl.
3. I got my Man a pair of Calvin Klein Jeans (which I never had one since the last two I bought cheap at Louisville Factory Outlet Store torn) and a shirt. He liked it!
4. We celebrated the Man's birthday (on Feb 4th) at his mother's place. (But of course, we met at home for me to give his birthday present and his birthday rompy-pompy session.... Yay!.. wife rulez). I bought Secret Recipe Choc Mud Cake (which I paid using Mastercard because the long line at ATM Machine near Midvalley and haven't paid, together with my lunch) and Mama had some lamb chop.
5. Right away after the celebration, I threw up twice at Mama's, and a few more times at home. I saw my breakfast inside the bowl, and everything I ate between morning to night. Was it gastric? Food poisoning? Overloading my own tummy?
6. Two weeks after, the same thing happen. I dragged the little boy's little chair into the toilet, practically putting my face into the toilet bowl until I saw my breakfast inside the bowl. Yuck!
7. The Man seriously and adamantly feel that the two series of face-inside-the-toilet-bowl is due to the carbonated drink. I think he is just jealous because his tummy can never take fizzy drink.
8. Still on celebration, we didn't celebrate Feb 14th. I silently felt good, thanking the numerous email we received through out the years on how Feb 14th was not supposed to be celebrated due to religious reason, that my Credit Limit is still below my alarming limit, after the bomb spent on CK Jeans. And Secret Recipe Choc Mud Cake.
9. Did I tell the last scan still shows that it's a girl?

Four Days, Fooh That's A Long Break!
We got Thurs and Fri off for the Chinese New Year (CNY) Celebration. We took off back to my hometown last weekend, so I thought we could go and roam the town during the four days break.
However, nicely, the Man had decided to play Badminton on the morning of the first day and his ankle decided to sprain itself.
There goes our four days break.

Updates
Last Thursday
We finally settled down all the Slides for the tomorrow's CEO briefing. The Man (my beloved Man) came to fetch me, only found out that he has to send me back to office to get all the Papers done.
Last Friday
Five minutes before the MD the Stupid Cow (My Man will kill me for swearing) went into the CEo room, he called up a few of us scolding that the presentation was not according to what he wanted. Hello!!! If you would have checked the presentation earlier, instead of early in the morning before the meeting, you would have been prepared. Idiot!
He came back from the meeting, lecturing us about how everyone shall start communicate to each other and tell each other that all Papers must be written using Arial 10. Duh! I really thought it was something to do with the contents or figures or graphs or something.
Baie was not back that quickly.
Last Saturday
I decided to still call him the Stupid Cow. Went to watch semifinals of Malaysian Open and witnessed Lee Chong Wei won. Great Kiddo was having fever, we dragged him to the stadium anyways and had to entertain him outside the stadium a few times. He, being cranky, said exactly the opposite of what we're saying, that plus cheering. We said, "maalysia boleh!" and he screamed "Malaysia tak boleh!". I dared not look around, people will be saying what kind of parents we were.
Last Sunday.
Stayed home. Watched finals and LCW won again. Started fever. Drank barley drink so that it'll cool me off.
Last Monday.
Two meetings that I had to attend going on at the same time. I had to go in the Supplier's meeting since I've not concluded anything for the new contracts awarded. Then the Customer's meeting, no other managers attended too, at last Ida had to drag Puru in. Ida was putting long big face, pretending that the world should know that her meeting was ignored. Typical! I asked her whether she wanted me in, she said, 'tak pe, tak penting pun customer meeting ni'. There you are, served you right. Ingat orang tahu ke apa dalam kepala hotak kau. Tell people what you really feel la, instead of keeping revenge afterwards. Geram betul aku ngan orang yang pretend that she in nobody but actually craving for attention ni. Kebudak-budakan!
It was a big day for Baie, the GM(O) interview was on so I really don't wanna bother him eventhough I was so itchy of knowing what really happened in the CEO's room.
I prayed hard that the Stupid Cow won't offend Baie in the interview.
Flu was really bad. I had difficulty breathing. Settled everything at four, drove back, went back to the clinic and got my ventolin nebulizer. Took flu medicine, slept until 6, woke up and called Baie to ask how the interview went.
Last Tuesday.
Ida (who is seated in front of me) kept making remarks the whole day about how unimportant she feels. She made remarks as though I was not even her friends anymore, as though I don't have a heart to get hurt. I held my patience, plus the Stupid Cow was demanding attention, too. He asked everybody to sit down with him to go through the last Board Meeting' minutes. Stupid! At the end, I asked everybody to fill up the spreadsheet, and I patiently sat with him going through the details to prepare himself for the Board Meeting. Ini ka orang yang dapat gaji beriban riban banyak dari aku? Nak baca minutes pun malas!
Then, LiKwoTei was pronounced as the Manager (Logistics) Ida had to report to. She walked off from the office as soon as the news leak. Everytime there 's a problem, you'll walk out. Walaupun kadangkadang I was in need of your work to be completed.
Then the smses started coming in. "you are in coal, you don't know how i feel being in logistics. Ignored all the time. bla bla bla". Hello! First , sicne when these two are separated functionally (since LiKwoTei came in). Second, I was in logistics for seven bloody years!
Aku malas nak cakap ngan orang yang pikir the world revolves around her whenever she had problem. I punched out the card for her anyway. Karang punch card tak punch out, dapat internal query pulak. Walked out from the office around 8 at night.
I ended yesterday, walking out at the park with the Great Kiddo with the big moon showing his face. A bliss! The Man cancelled his bowling and I felt so great seeing his face back home. So many things wanted to be pouredm, but all choked inside and I just could say, "I'm glad to see you home, today", repeatedly.
I really did.
Today. Wednesday. The Thaipusam.
Finally checked out the new restaurant called the Rain for dinner. Food was great, ambience was calm. Most importantly, I did have time talking to the Man about what happened at work.
Tomorrow.
Working day, lots to prepare, Board Meeting in the afternoon, Customer meeting in the morning.
Decided not to call MD Stupid Cow anymore. Few days is enough.
Decided to not interfere with Ida's business anymore. And not to be bothered with her whines and cries. She is too much pampered. At that age, at that position, she should be taking a lot more pressure.
Decided not to be the one who tegur Ida, anyway. Biar orang lain tegur, or biar ada satu event that make her realize that she needs to grow up. It'll be a tough lesson for her, but a lesson that she will never forget. If there is no lesson learnt, then too bad fo rher.
Decided to be her listening friend anyway. Listening I'll do, advicing I'll do not.
Tomorrow is a better day.
A lot more tasks will get accomplished.
A pink Notebook by Dell is coming.

Counting My Blessings
I should do this more often.
1. I am so thankful that my youngest sister, who was so adamant to launch herself into the career world before without a proper degree, is finally settled down in a public university, further from KL, further from all these attraction. Hope it's gonna be good for her.
2. I am glad that my tummy is finally showing now.
3. I am enjoying my new work, the new challenge. It keeps me busy. It made me important.
4. My new white MyVi is so cute. It's even cuter when I am in it.
5. So I gotta wake up at 6ish and drive away by 6:30, but it's okay. So many new thoughts came in early wee dawn hours.
6. The great Kiddo is constantly nagging me for attention. Which drives me mad most of the time, but it made me important.
7. My immediate boss is constantly reminding me to take it slow for now, for I am pregnant.
8. The Man took me out for a movie , supposed to be an anniversary date, we watched the Enchanted.
9. Oh oh oh.. you guys, my 5th wedding anniversary is a.... *drum roll* Tag Hauer!!!!
Guess I have a lot to thank for!

It's A ....
The Man and I had made a pact to let the gender of our second one a secret. I mean, how many times can you do that in a life time, if you want to have two pregnancies? I thought it'd look cool to look surprise when the baby come out and the doctor finally announced that to us.
Secretly, having a complete pair would be nice. But I would love them anyway if both are boys. Like I always said, as long as it is healthy and perfect, it'd be more than enough.
When three of us, The Man, me and the Great Kiddo went to Dr Delaila for our fifth-month check up (which is actually the second check up), we were very silent when she started peeking into the monitor. With the Great Kiddo inside me four years ago, she didn't bother to ask whether we would like to know the sex, instead she just blurted out, there are the scrotum, it's a boy!
As pesimist as she was before, she went down from the head. 'This is the line that divides the left and right hemisphere of the brain. No sign of extra fluid, meaning not a down syndrome baby".
She went down "this is the shoulder, no sign of hunchback". "This is the back bone, again no sign of hunchback. Looks like a tall baby".
She further went, "The four chamber of the heart... bla bla.. the lung.. the kidney... "
I was silent. Didn't dare looking at the Man. Knowing that she'll go further down.
"This is the pelvic bone, symmetrical, no sign of down syndrome". Again, what's up with her and the down syndrome thing? I go myself focused, again.
Held my breath hard. Cause I knew it was coming.
Then, that's it.
"You know what's that between the pelvic bone?".
I sillyly said, "It's a boy?". I avoided the Man's gaze.
"No", she laughed. "It's flat. It's a girl".
So, we both knew. I looked at the Man and mouthed, "It's a girl".
He didn't look surprise. But he always has that stoic face, anyways.
There.
We both know, for now.
*smile*
Welcome, Anna Zahara, Mommy can't wait to see you.

Too Late for A Nieeeeeewww Year
So the new year went by without me watching the concert, without me watching the fireworks (I was about to type firecrackers, shows how have i been forgetting how big a new year fireworks are), most importantly without me sitting back to view my 'what was working and what was not for 2007', and what's the next 12 months gonna be.
*sigh*
Mental note: To book a hotel room with city view on 31 Dec 2008 to view the firework.
The new job came with super duper extra responsibilities and much much lesser time to even think on what's gonna happen next. I used to enjoy the time during the weekly staff meeting mulling over my To-Do list and strategize on accomplishing them. But for now, I didn't even have time to list down my To-Dos.
Which is bad.
Which has made me feel not in control.
I however get a few things done:
1. I managed to open the Amanah Saham Didik account for the Great Kiddo.
2. I opened up the Yippie Account for him too. The beauty of it is I can maybank2u money to him at any time I like, then when there are enough units opened at Amanah Saham Didik, I can easily go to any maybank to transfer the money to there.
3. Fund a few hundreds for my sister who just got rolled into a public university, I also helped her doing all the medical check up things.
4. Funded my parents for their yearly shopping. Okay, it's not like I funded them for the whole vacation, but it made me feel good.
5. I managed to revamp the whole new tendering process.
6. Finishing up the fuel committee for tbp.
Happy New Year to me.
(I know it's late).

Yesterday
It is a bliss that both bosess are away, I could blog, blog , blog!
I went to SJMC to see an ENT specialist who took out a large clump of fungal-do inside my right ear. I was glad when I was pronounced 'not deaf', decided to celebrate it and went to Subang Parade, alone, determining to do things for my son, instead of for myself.
So I decided to check up Tumble Tots. Found out they do a few classes. Quite pricey, I calculated, around RM50 per class. Classes are more like phonic reading and gym toddling. I was looking for more things like drawing, coloring, craft. Decided to check out the drawing class I saw in One Utama new wing. (Have you guys seen one?)
After I have completed my motherly obligation, decided to roam for one pair of comfortable pants, since my waist line is dissapearing ( I am by now have finished my fourth month of pregnancy). Just one pair and my belly won't feel so tight when I drive. Just a little pair.
So hopped into Modern Mom, paid for two blouses, one jeans and one pair of black pants. That is around RM400! When I was sitting recording things into my CashOrganizer the Man had just re-installed to my pda-phone, I casually asked whether they have cardigan, and you just got to see their cardigan! It is way too cool, it's like a wrap, but it's a cardigan, it's warm but trendy. So I swooped one, cost around RM100.
There, half a thousand spent on one day, less than one hour.
Didn't I just do re-evaluation of my spending habits for 2007 and vowed to save more for 2008?
