hello, its the cny again.
while everyone is basking into the festive mood of od-ing oranges, igotmoreangpaothanyou and all that vivababoom, i stay home in pure indulgence of prison break season two.
its funny. half my life ago, cny was sucha huge thing - me, clad in red cheongsam and reciting gongxifacai phrases my mum made me memorise (so that it reflects on her upbringing) and then i'd run to the toilet to see how much ive gotten in the packet.
now, i dont even do newyear shopping no more. every other day should be retail therapy, anyways)
anyhows, its crown's birthday!
a year ago, i was as excited as a mother of a newborn, sleeping in the
living floor next to the pup for an entire week. waking every few hours to bring her for a pee, even though i was sitting through my final papers and mahjonging my life away. every once in a while, i'd have to make the rest 'gai pai' (cover tiles) cos ive to mop another puddle of pee on the floor. remember not, julia?!
and crown was tiny enough to fit in my lap, her mouth not even big enough to bite a ball.
now, she totally crawls all over me and is totally capable of destroying ANYTHING. remember not, beewee?!
you know, time flies. i know, ive said this a thousand times.
i look back, i get scared.
i look at now, i say, wow.
"but, i really dont know." i'd say, added with a shrug.

so on friday, the boss was nice enough to give us a half day, after a minor spring cleaning. then told me and siok that we'd rotate different job scope and might top up our pathetic four fifty(!!). this time, i really can do the nannypoo victory dance.
i look at ronald, i tell myself, maybe IPP isnt that bad after all.
haha im only kidding. but im envious of tat, he gets to take the NEL. major harhar! ;p
okay, the mum has taught the dog how to gongxi gongxi. im impressed.
YOU, stay on my mind.
