Father's Day
Is the day...Father's day weekend. I didn't get anything for Kit, well, i did treat him Fortino's Chicken, which is his fav and Ryan's too.
Well, on Saturday we went shopping like crazy and we bought lotsa things. Kit went to CND tire to buy pressure washer. It was on sale for half price. Good deal eh..so we can use it to wash our deck, slidings, porch and driveway too.
He woke up early to get the pressure washer coz it was too good deal, scared later it will be gone fast. Coz it says no rain checks and while quantity last. So, our dear fren woke up around 7.30 am and headed to CND tire around 8am.
He came back around 8.30 am and woke me up from my beauty sleep. I was soo tired and sleepy but i have to drag my lazy bump out from the bed coz i wanna watch "CHARMED" at 9 am. Yea..my fav series movie now...hehehe cannot miss it one eh..;)
I finished watching around 10 am.. then we started to get ready for grocerries shopping . I bought Ryan a toy. Is from Fisher Price the little people. Cost me aroudn 30 bucks..it was on sale half price..original was 60 bucks eh..so good deal for me :)
Bought a cake for Kit's dad coz we had to go over to Kit's sis's place for dinner. Coz she had this early father's day celebration thing for the old man.
She orderd 1 chinese bbq piglet..cost her abt 130 bucks..hmmm but didn't taste good at all eh..too oily and she bbq some quails too..hmmm too much meat.
Just too much meat for me.. high cholesterol eh.
anyway, we didn't reach there till 9.45 pm. coz i finished work around 9 pm. hehehe..dun feel like taking off days ler..no point ler...
Well, it;s been awhile we haven't visited her place. Well, i can say her decoration of the house is a bit too off from style.
Maybe is her own liking not mine. Not fair for me to comment lor.
Can't sleep in new environment eh..that is why i am still writing this blog now at abt 1.25 am sunday morning.
Kit and Ryan already snoring away liao..n me..still facing computer ..hehehe
We have to sleep in her study room..soo..lucky thing there is a computer..if not i dunno what to do..
Hmmm... actually, when i reached kit's sis place, saw my FIL and i did acknowledge him just now..but he wasn't too happy to see me i guess... he didn't say much..just gave me those unhappy look.
Hmmmm.. i really dun understand.. what have i done wrong?
Sigh..
oohh who caresssss.. their business... not mine!
as long as my family are happy together.. the rest... i dun care!

Heat Wave
Its has been 9 days that we had these 30 over degrees weather couple with high humidity and smoggy air.
BOyyy, prety hard to survive through this kind of weather after u have experienced the 6 months wicked cold winter. Not to mention, my hometown from Penang, is a norm to have humid 36 degrees weather there.
Oh well, i have forgotten such weather already till last few days ..geeze i was screaming for help..hehehe...u can't do anything. Thank God for the air conditioner..kekeke.. Summer is not here yet but we are already having the typical July weather in June.
Luckily, the humid weather is gone. Is back to normal spring weather today. Back to normal 20-25 degrees tempreture with cold breeze air.
Other than weather, i am doing pretty good... Sunday my FIL treated us Dim Sum for lunch at Crystal Dynasty restaurant. We had our wedding lunch over there too. Only decent chinese restaurant over in HAmilton..hehehe pai seh..
The last time Kit and I went there for dim sum, it tasted horrible. But this time it was good. We were impressed this time..hehehe...
After dim sum, we headed to Bayfront Park for a walk. It was nice even though it was humid.
We got back around 2 pm, and i headed to Nellie's place to keep her company. I stayed till 4 pm coz i have to work at 4.30 pm.
It was longggg day for me on Sunday. I promised Nellie i will visit her on Monday again.
So on Monday I cooked her some Chinese fried rice so that she dun have to cook dinner.
Stroll Ryan overthere and spend few mins there only coz she looked tired and i thought i better let her rest and lie down.
She couldn't sleep for days already. Can't blame her.
Sigh... hope she gets better soon.
On Tuesday i didn't go visit her..coz i thought i'll let her rest and be alone for awhile.
I will visit her on weekends.
I felt soo weird after the whole thing. Dunno why, maybe they are close to me i guess. I felt i had lost someone dear to me too.
Oh well, since i didn't visit Nellie yesterday, i had the whole day at home..so i ended cooking Penang Kapitan Curry. kekkkee...yeaaaa tasted good too eh.. somemore extra spicy one..walauuu eh..its been awhile didn't eat curry.
Kit had it till he has to drink his Motts garden veggie drink with ice.
hahaha can see him sweat and running nose too..
of coz i cook somethign else for ryan too..i steamed some fish for him...but that little rascal.. didn't wanna eat his fish..wanna try the curry chicken.hahahaha..
after he had his first bite...boyyyyy u can see his face change...he knew is spicy..but he still continue eating..walauuuuuu eh..
eventhough born in canada.... but has to bow down his malaysian parentage roots huh..esp mom from PENANG..hahahahahah
yea..what to do..if no train him now..if next time go back to penang, he will miss out the goodies of food!
hahahahha

Albert's Funeral.
I couldn't sleep tonite, so thought of updating my blog. I dunno why i couldn't sleep, i should be dead tired by now, butttt, i seems to be very wide awake.
I have attended Albert's funeral tonite. It was my first time for me to attend western's funeral. I was a little bit nervous abt the culture and customs there. All i know they are Catholic, but of coz they are certain rules and regulations too. Similar to our asian's style.
For me, I have gone through 3 funerals of my loved ones. I was kinda immuned to the situation already. The first one was my mom's one. Of coz we did it in a Christian way, so there was no "hoo haa" ..."tok chiang" (chinese drums and stuff making lotsa noices) like the one the Taoist ppl. No offense, i am just trying to differenciate only.
The second was my grandpa's. He died peacefully while he was having dinner. What we did was having the Siamese Monk came over for prayers. That's was it.
Then 3rd one was my grandma's . We did the same as the one for grandpa.
So, came 4th one.. Albert's one.. eventhough he was not my family member, but i treated him as my closed one.
I am very upset and down for the last couple days.
While i was at the funeral home just now, I saw Albert in his coffin, lying down peacefully, with his eyes shut and with a peaceful smile on his face.
Bless his soul for eternal life.
He was a very good man,husband ,father and grandpa.
I just felt bad for Nellie..they were couple for 55 years!
I just couldn't imagine how Nellie is feeling rite noww... if i ever loose Kit, I really dunno what to do or i will feel.

In Living Memory of Albert.
Albert, was a very unique man, a man that i came to know in Dec 2002. Was very straight forward person and kinda feisty too. hehehe..
Albert was Nellie loveable husband. Yup, he has passed last nite after several years fighting to survive from this deadly disease called cancer.
I felt bad, loss, sad and worried. All mixed feelings for me today. I found out the news from my MIL, which she called this morning to tell me abt Albert.
I didn't talk much to Albert before, but deep inside me, I knew he was a very nice, fine and loving man. He was never show his feelings to anyone b4 but deep inside him, he cared very much.
I dunno why i blog abt him today, is just that i felt like it. Something for me to mourn over.
May his soul rest in peace and may GOD keep Nellie and her family strong and help her through her grieving process.

Is nicee but dun really like the humidity though, coz making me sweat like a pig and that headache is killing me! That explains why i didn't blog for quite some time.
Geeze all i need is a pool...just felt like jumping into a pool of coolll water! hahaha..
splash Splish..hehehe
Oh well, what happened last week was we had bbq on Saturday, and Kit invited his family members over. Initially, we planned to invite only kit's younger bro and his parents only..but when Kit told his dad abt the bbq thing...his dad asked him to invite his sis and her hubby as well.
Oooooh oooooooo..problemooooo...coz his sis and hubby are really 2 fake people.. very self centred and never bother us as family.
Siighhhhhhh.. no choice... got to invite them.
Well, the whole thing was okie... i didn't take off days coz it was too late..my schedule was up and i couldn't take any off days.
Too bad! good in a way..coz i dun have entertain them that much.
We planned to have it at 2 pm.. but guess what..kit's parents and sisn hubby were late..they came aorund 4 pm.
we didn't care..we hadthe bbq started first, coz we were hungry... Kit's younger bro was here in the morning...he was okie..actually he is a very nice guy, understanding guy too.
I like him.. he is the only person i like from Kit's family.
He understands my situation and very nice guy!
He treated me like his sister in law... not like the others..walaueh...
nothing much happened though..they came and look around the house..n of coz complained abt our house..here n there..
too badddd la... is our house.. i couldn't be bothered!
they have nice, new and big house...how can u compared to ours...ours is old house..of coz theirs is nicer..
who caresssssss!
luckily i gotta work at 5.30 pm..
hehehe..so i just entertain forawhile..n they left around 8 pm..
Kit's younger bro stayed till i got back home eh.. n guess wat..RYan loves him... he allow kit's younger bro to carry him and play with him..
not like kit's sis..Ryan doesn't like her..hahahah guess Ryan can sense it huh kekekekek
Kit's bro help me and kit alot...least he baby sat Ryan while Kit cleaned up after they gang left..kekekekke
It turned out okie..but of coz my FIL didn't feel good abt our house. He didn't even come into the house.
oh well, is his problem ler...
okie dokie...wanna keep this short..is very hot now..wanna have some ice cold water.

Long Weekend (Victoria Day-monday)
Whoohooo...long weekend for us last weekend. It was fun and tiring for us. It all started last Friday where Kit's auntie (MIL's sister) from Malaysia came for visit. Actually, his aunt's eldest son is in Maryland, US working. So, they kinda just drop by Hamilton for visit.
Of course, everyone is wondering whether this aunty is good or not... hmmmm nahhhhhhhh...it runs in the family eh..hehehe.. actually she is even worst than my MIL. hahaha..YUP no kidding!
She is the almighty MENTOR for my MIL. hahahah
What happenend on Friday was the relatives came and stayed over my MIL's place. So as usual i had to work till 8 pm that day but i was asked to go back early that day due to no business that nite. I was supposed to call Kit when i finished work to confirm whether i should go over to MIL's place of just go home straight. When i called around 6.50pm, i called mil's home, no one answer the phone. Aiks.. okieeeee... well, they were supposed to go to the bank to deal something, so i thought they haven't come back from bank. I was like dunno what to do, should i go back or should i walk to my mil's place and wait for them at Nellie's place. (Nellie is my ex-neighbour)
One part of me telling me to go home so that i can enjjoy my peace and freedom and the other part of myself asking to go over to MIL's place because if i didn't go...later the relatives will give faces to Kit ( like i no give "face" to them).
SO i ended up spending time with Nellie at her house.. while waiting for Kit to come back.
I was at Nellie's place for 20 mins and I saw a car (american car) parking outside MIL's house.
Then i saw kit's auntie.
U see, I met her before when i first time went to KL to meet kit's parents. But what i got was just cold treatment from them.
They dun like me as in i am different from them. (I do not speak Mandarin, and i am fat)
Anyway, baack to the story, so i was going to ask them to go over to Nellie's place to rest and wait for my mil to come back from bank...but b4 i can do that..my fil opened the door and kit came out surprised to see me there.
Oh well, all i did was say hi to them and went in back to Nellie's place continue chatting..coz i do not want to spoil their mood coz i thought they might have lotsa things to catch up. ANd they probably won't want to see me..seeing me will be the last thing in their mind. :)
So, kit had to go order pizza for dinner and i didn't know that till i went back to mil's house. When i went in, i say hi to everyone.. and kit's aunt (let's call her MENTOR) telling me how to call them in chinese.
Darnnnnn! she was and is a TOTAL CONTROL FREAK!
telling me i am supposed to call her husband "yee cheong" (cantonese term for uncle) and how i addressed her frens.
well, there is a couple, mentor's friend following them here...because they do not know english, so the couple fren can help out.
Then mil came down for upstairs, then i asked her where is kit..she told me Kit went to buy pizza and Ryan is sleeping upstairs.
So without wasting anytime i went upstairs to check on Ryan...n Mentor followed me behind.
She just talked non-stop...woke Ryan up. Ryan was crancky..and guess whaT? she wanted to carry him..
sighhhhhh..HELOOO??!!! u r totally stranger to Ryan..n first tiime seeing him..Ryan doesn't want anybody to go near hiim..except me or kit.
WHen RYan rejected her... all she said..why u dun want me to carry, so shy huh....
then tell me that i should bring ryan out..see lotsa ppl..so that hewont be shy..
i was like..helloooooo?! who are u? i just met u first few mins..n u tell me what to do?
first of all, ryan is not shy . second of all, u r stranger!!
Ryan is just cranky coz she woke him up!
this is not the things she did...got more jjuicy one came ...i was so fucking pissed off.. (oppsie..mind my language) oh well, i was really mad that time when after i tried to calm ryan down..n wanted to make some formula for him to drink...she came up to me and asking me whether i know to make the formula or not?!!
Can u guys believe this????? WHAT on earth has crossed her mind by asking me that silly question?
if i did not know how to make formmula...who has been taking care of RYAN ALL THIS WHILE???!!
can plss anyone tell me what the heck with this lady!?
sighhhhhhhhhhhhhh
i really had enough with her...after that..asking me to do this...by wiping ryan's mouth while ryan was enjoying his pizza...
Come on!!! the kid won't get to enjoy the fun of eating by himself..if we kept wiping his mouth and hand...
damnnnnnnnnnnnnn that ole lady!!!
Seriously i felt like strangle her! hahahahhaha
Okie..that was friday...then came saturday... we were supposed to go NIAGARA FALLS with them.
dare enough my mil asking to take off day that day for her mentor enjoyment?!@
helooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!
who is the one don't like who first?
whhy should i take off days for her?
no way..OF COURSE I did not take off days..i can only compromise by following them..n get off early that day!
the least i can do...don't say that i didn't give face... coz i don't really enjoy the trip at all..coz there was constant nagging on me how to take care of RYAN. WHAT THE HELL?!
friday and saturday were hell for me.
Then came sunday..phewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww finally we dun have to join them...Kit and i got to spend time together cleaning up our backyard and prune all the dead leaves and branches.
then around nooon time, mil called. asking wanna come over and look at the house.
DAMNNNNNNN..
oh well, had no choice to say okie...
but of coz i have my strategy...hehehehe..befroe she hang up..i told her..we had to go grocery shopping later and i worked around 4.30 pm..
least i let her know we were busy that day. no time to entertain eh..!
so came all the gang... the hypocrate ( sorrie dunno the spelling) checking out our house... u can see the look on her face..
condemn our garden too big..too much work to do.... where got time..bla bla bla..
i am guesing she is jealous that Kit has a wife and son and own a house..whereas his son has to rent room, no gf. BLUEWWWWWK
well, my guess could be true because all my mil sisters , they live in comparison and compete with each other one.
who knows what is in her mind!
BUT who carese.. i like my house and i am proud of it!
u dun like..is ur problems.. sucker!!
phewwwwwwwwwwwww there u goooooo..i felt much better...has been inside me for days!!
hhhahaha..i got to let it out..thank GOD they left already! hahahahah
whooooooo
n monday was holiday for us.. I had great time with Kit and Ryan at home. :)

Crazy week for muaaa
Aisey mannn... it's been crazy for mua last weekend. I got my butt whooped on Sunday where I have to work from 1pm till 7.30pm sitting down there takings phone calls orders (eeeweeeeeek) when i think of it..i just felt TIRED!
hahaaaha..
i dunnno why my scheduler scheduled me over time that day..usually i only work from 4-7 pm. :)
ANyway, as u guys see, we already got our Satelite! whoohoooooooooo! more movies, i got to watch Charmed, Oprah, Will&Grace, Survivor,Apprentice, Ellen deGeneres, and many more...hahaha..
Sadly, i didn't get to enjoy during the weekend. U see , the cable guy came around noon time.. n by the time he finished fixing the satelite.. it was about 2 pm. Then we have to go do our grocerries shopping..and by the time we got back..i had to get ready for work!
Life sucks when u have to work on weekends.
It was longggggggg nite for that nite..furthermore it was pouring rain when i came from work. Sigh..by the time i got back..it was already 9.30 pm..all the good shows finito liao..
double sigh~!!
Sunday came... gotta work early that day..suckiest day for me... dead boring..and my brain couldn't function very well that too.
I was soo glad when i reached home around 7.45 pm. hahahaha..having the thought that the next day i don't have to go to work..was like speechless for me..kekeke.
I know some ppl dun like monday..coz they have to go back to work on that day...but for muaaaaaaa...whooooooooohooooooooooo..dancing up n down for me!
I thot i can enjoy my monday but unfortunately my allergies came back that day..was lying on the bed almost the whole afternoon.
It was soo ironic ...coz before the Satelite.. i was soo free and bored n kept wishing how nice rite now i get the satelite.
but when i got it..i dun even have the time and energy or health to enjoy it :(!
I didn't get to online for 3 days..yup (monday-wednesday) ... sad..sadddd..sadddd...
by the way, u guys miss me or not? hahaha (am i asking silly question here) ;*)
I miss reading all my favourite blogs!! i really did eh...thank God ryan sleep today..n i can enjoy my peace rite now..hehehe
Hmm..time really flies...today will be my last day of rest for the week...tomorrow back to work again. dun really feel good abt it...hehehe ;)

working hard
yeaaa...eventhough i am sick..i have the urge to clean the whole house...hehehe...Last evening, as Kit came back from work.. he asked me to take care of Ryan for awhile as he wanted to wash his car..
soooo..i took Ryan out and put him in his stroller and stroll him out around the house while Kit washed his car.
Ryan enjoyed the ride and scenery.. and it was nice and warm yesterday. As for me, I didn't feel good at all..coz i felt like cleaning the bathroom (scrub the bathtub, clean the toilet bowl, wash the sink and clean the mirror) since morning. I can't do it during the day time..coz i do not want Ryan to smell the chemical stuff i used to clean the bathroom..plus cleaning with Ryan around? Is impossible to do kinda thing!
Soo, i was waiting patiently for Kit to finish..so that i can start my engine to clean... hmmm our friend didn't finished it till abt 6.30 pm..Ryan was hungry and i was tired of waiting too..so i went into the house and fed Ryan first..and Kit came in n asked me..sssoooooo? what u want to do now?
Then i said..why not we have dinner first..then later i wanna clean upstairs as well the bathroom.
So, he said okie..he made dinner for me... Ohh..not fancy dinner of course..something fast and easyy la..
he made Kalbassa (turkey meat) sandwhich and vegetable soup.
There we go..after dinner...everyone was full..and this poor aunty..have to start working liao..
I have to wash all dishes..clean the counter top (when men cook? is always messy around the kitchen counter top)
Pack kit's lunch andd up i went..sweeping every room upstairs..even the bathroom and staircase. Mop the bathroom floor and staircase.
After finished mopping..it was 9 pm already! Dead tired!!
Still have to scrub the bathtub and toilet bowl...sink and clean mirrorr..
sighhhhhhhhh
so no hessistation... i continue working... scrub, scrub,scrub, wash, wash, wash, clean, clean,
flush, flushhh,
tadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.....i was done! ..almost 10 pm..
phewwwwwwwwwwww what a work out eh...
heheheh... least now i fully satisfied..that my bathroom is squeaky clean. :)
Today, laundry day...have to wash Kit's working pants and t-shirt! tadaaaaaaa...loads of laundry to do..n sweep and mop the sun room and kitchen.
Besides all the exercising, this aunty still have to play with the little one...and cook for 2 babies to eat..
Here i am...online, writing this blog...with all my chores done, littleo ne sleeping..and peaceful moment for me to enjoy!
:))
I wonder sometimes does Stay At Home Mom's job tougher than those women working outside?
I dunno, u see women outside works 8-10 hours a day.. roughly, and stress as well with their work loads..
and stay at home mom works ..hmm let me see my time..err *counting hours* 7.30 am till 10 pm,
of course we do have break in between when baby is sleep..buttttttt..when baby is sleeping..we still have house chores to finish?
so does it consider as break??
and how much is our salary per year???
ZIPOOO
hehehehehehe...but satisfaction = 100%
why?
FAMILY!!!! :)

Getting ready for barbeque...
Yup, summer almost coming soon and the most popular thing ppl do overhere is Barbeque. hehehe..Kit just bought new barbeque stove last 3 weeks ago and it cost us around 160 bucks.

WHooooooo hoooooo..yeahhhh..can saveee more now...of coz rite away we say YES! hehehe...Actually we plan to buy one in summer...(coz saving money now maa) hehehe..but now..good news..we dun have to buy sofa...so can buy somethingelse. :)
DIdn't get to take picture of the bbq stove and table....maybe later i will. Kit kept in the garage rite after he brought back from CND tire. I am kinda lazy to go out to garage and take pics coz is raining. rite now :(

Typical April (spring)weather.
WHen u see the topic..weather? hahahah meaning i got nothing to blog. It has to be weather then lor. hehehehe
Oh well, last couple weeks it has been great. SUnny and warm weather ..felt like summer, where we had 20 over degrees celcious. People busy staying outside enjoying the weather and bbq-ing.
Infact, customers in my work place behave themselves as well. U see, my work got related with the weather, not to say directly related....but the weather played a major role in my work situation.
When the weather is cold, everyone is grumpy and trying to release their stress on the order taker (which is me) and when the weather is warm and good... they will behave good and if u r lucky they even ask how u doing. hahahaha
that's life huh!
Oh well, lately this week, the weather has back to normal which is the spring wet weather. It's been wet all week and cloudy for the rest of the week.
Work has been busy coz ppl will order more pizza when the weather is bad. hehehe i really dunno why is that. Dun ask me why. :)
Anyway, i am kinda immuned with the situation already although i still feel the phobia of going to work..but once i am there..i am okie.
The crazy weather has affected Ryan's health as well. He started with fever last friday..then monday he catched a cold and developed cough as well. It's been crazzy for me and kit these days. We couldn't sleep at nite coz always kept an eye on Ryan. When he cough .. he tend to vomit everything he ate. Ai ya ya...i have to change the bed sheet 3 times in one day...
somemore i couldn't dry outside..no sun to dry it eh.. so i have no choice i have to use dryer.
I dun really like the dryer ...it has one kinda smelll...is not like fresh anymore.
Sighhhhhhh...they said, when baby sick... u can never rest. U have to watch them 24 hours.
Luckily , he is bit better noww.
:)
Anyway, is friday today..life is not soo bad! Up and down like rollercoaster is better than calm waterr. Coz with the rollercoaster-ing experience..it gives u knowledge and wisdom to become more wiser!! :)
Have a great weekend eveyone.

Women
Hey hey.. its been awhile since i last posted. Oh well, i have been busy as always and Ryan is sick too. :(
Ryan started to get fever last Friday and he was okie on Sunday..butttt after visiting my in laws on Sunday, sighhhhhh..he got sick again. Rite now he is bit better and snoozing away.
Last nite i had this thought of the responsibilities of women...well, u see, when we were first born as female, our role is to be daughter to our parents. Girly like, cute and sweet to everyone. Then when we grow up to abt say maybe 13 to 18 years old, our responsibilities grow..from just being daughter to a good daughter as in have to help mommy to clean, tidy up the house , wash this and that and some have to cook as well. And as soon as we got married, we got new roles, a wife, daughter in-law and sister in law. Oh boyy, more responsibilities added up to the ones we already had. As a wife, u have to take care of ur hubby and home. As a daughter in-law, geeze..this one i couldn't say much.... coz i don't really have any chance to participate this role as in my in-laws never allow me to do it.
So, i really dunno what a daughter in law should do...if u asked me the role of previous time (my mother's time) of daughter in-law role ... i can give u that answer. Easy, just one word.. SLAVE.
Then, when u have children.. u got another new role added up. MOTHER role. Oh boyyyyy, this role is not easy eh. I am still learning and still sometimes wish somebody can be there for me to give me some advice to be a mother.
As a mother, u always put ur children and hubby first and urself last. Maybe that's why God made us the one who can give birth because we are more sensitive.
I am a little bit proud of myself as in I have taken care of Ryan by myself without anyone's help. oh well, not like lotsa women nowadays where they have mother in law or mother to take care of their child while they go to work.
I chose to take care of my own son than letting my mil do it because I feel it is my responsibilities to do it. I am the one who bring him into this world.. i should take care of him.
I forgo my career and dreams for my family. I may felt a little bit regret but i still feel is well worth it.
Least, Ryan is well taken care of. He knows that his mummy is there for him.
Ohh, i shouldn't take alll the credit though... Kit helped alot too. We did it. This is the western culture..not like in Malaysia where usually the MIL will take care or Indonesia maid will.
Hmmmm... i felt like this will affect the child's psychology as in the mother didn't get to bond with the child at all. Those kids speaks good Bahasa and communicates more to the maid than own mother.
I have a friend from China, who migrated to Hamilton 4 years ago. She gave birth to her first daughter when she first came here. She couldn't take care of her daughter due to she wants to continue studies and get a job, therefore she sent her daughter to China to let her mom to take care for 2 years.
Last year she gave birth to second daughter, so she decided to bring back her first daughter. I can see the f irst daughter is very quiet and always in isolation mood when u talk to her...even she didn't really focus on what her mother talks to her.
I felt soo sad for my friend and her daughter. It affected the child soo much.. the abundant and loneliness.
SO, is always worth it if u sacrifice for ur own child. Spend more time with them and shower them all the love u have. :)

body image
Today we are going to do some brainstorming. Body image, an important issue for all women. It has become a crucial thing for every women nowadays. They are soo concern about how they look and how other people protrays them.
So, let me ask you all people, what is the best body image or rather body figure in this world? Is it the number measurement of 36,24,36 (36 of breast size , 24 inches of waist size and 36 inches of bum size) that determine the most popular and common goal figure of every women? Or the weight that determines the body figure such as 45 kg, or 50 kg or 100 lbs?
To be honest to u, I have this problem since i am young (4 -5 years old). I am always the chubby one. I ate alot and i drank lotsa milk. I am always being teased by friends and relatives calling me the "fat" one, tor pui (fat in hokkien) ah fat , etc etc.
I remembered my brother always teased me saying that i will never get married one, no one will marry you because u r soo fat, Unless u married to "too bak ko" (man selling pork in market)
SO, since i was young, i never behave like a gal, i dressed like a guy, play with guys and talked like guys and i even cut my hair very short.
I have this thought that there is no one will like me as who i am, i better behave like a guy. Least i get some attention.
My sister is the opposite, she is slim, and very umm "siu chia" (lady like) . She even know how to act "politely" by crossing her legs when taking pictures.
I used to envy my sister as whhy she always get soo many attention.
When i grew up ( say abt teenager that time), I started to have feelings for boys, is hard that time.. because i am chubby and no one will like me. I always kept all the ffeelings to myself.
Whereas my sister, walauuuu..u can say lotsa "hor sin" (lalat, flies = boys) aftering her.
SOo, i told myself i will never get married and grow old alone as a spinster. :))
hahahaahah
Mana taaauuuu.. (who knowsss) this chubby, tor pui managed to get married and nnow had a son.
Oh well, the bottom line of the story here is, beauty is not based on only the body image or figure.
Love is not only based solely on how u look, they also based on how u behave and how passionate u are.
Kit neverr "hiam" (got any problem) with my weight.. but of coz i have to exercise and loose the weight for the sake of my health.. not for the sake of the beauty!
Women nowadays are very crucial with their image,and how the guys will look at them. Well, if the guy is sincere and true abt you and love u and care abt you, he will and able to see through you.. ur inside and love you from inside out.
THat will be the guy u can spend the rest of ur life with.... coz he managed to see through u inside.
I am not saying that we women should be overweight or no make up or no need wear nice clothings to look good.
Well, i am just saying, we women have curves, shapes and sizes. Is how GOD created us.. different from the men.
Therefore, we dun have to be harsh on ourselves and star trying to celebrate who we are .
Of coz, sometimes we need to pampered ourselves by buy clothings, put make up to look good :)
Just a little bit touch up. ehhee
Eventhough, for those overweight women, dun feel that if u r overweight, u cannot be nice and pretty, there are lotsa clothings outhere suitable for we , full figured women. We still can look good eh.
GOD is always fair..he created us with soo many sizes, colours and shapes. What we have to do is, try to accept and feel good abt what we are .
Models and actresses on tv, they are not real! They look good because everyone wants to see it.
Therefore, dun ever compared to them.
Just believe and feel good abt yourself!!
AMEN!

busy weekend
It was a hectic weekend for us.. but we really enjoyed it very much. First of all, Kit don't have to work over time so he came back around 5.30 pm for the whole week last week. Secondly, the weather was superb, we had sunny and was abt 15 degrees celcious. I was able to dried my clothings outside!
of coz Ryan gets to explore outside..hehehehe.. yeaa his first time on the grass but he felt funny for awhile though.
Then came weekend, Kit managed to changed his 4 tires (is time to changed, all 4 of them worn out) so, of coz this Big Baby wanna tried out his new tires on highway. So, he decided to go Big Land Farm (one of the chinese grocery store in Missisauga) to shop for our grocerries. That made me excited coz i get to get out from Hamilton. hehehe.. oh well, is always nice to get out from a small city once in awhile..but i still prefer living in small city, not soo crowded and always peace and quiet.
We shopped alot, not those ordinary stuff we can get it overhere.. we bought lotsa those frozen dumplings, won ton, "kau chi" "siu mai" and paus (steaming bun), and of coz "char siu" ( bbq pork) . Char Siu there very cheap, 3 big pieces only cost us around 4 bucks. IF we buy it here..oh boyyy..cost us a fortune.
Then we bought lotsa goodies like junk food..hehehe not for us..for our neighbour..she loves the crackers. ( once we gave her for Christmas, she loves it very much- she's italian canadian)
We also bought some ingredients for Char Koey Teow.. (famous Penang -fried noodle). Well, not me cook it..hahaha eventhough i am from Penang..but Kit will fried it. Trust me..he fried better koay teow than i do.. hahha pai seh!
We fried it on Sunday morning and gave some to our neighbour (MARA and IAN). They loved it soo much and insisted that we gave her the recipe..hahaha..
Saturday was very tiring for me..coz i gotta work from 5.30pm till 9 pm. boyyyyyyy...not to mentioned Ryan woke up up around 6 am.
His sleep has been going upside down ever since the daylight savings.
Anyway, SUnday morning was lovely dayyyy...we were outside busy cleaning out backyard and planting spring perenial flowers. :)
I love my back yard soo much... furtheremore the previous owner kept the garden soo nice and clean.
I will take some pictures when the flowers started to bloom.. ;)
As we were halfway cleaning the backyard my MIL called asking whether Kit can fetch her to buy something coz FIL working on that day.
So, no choice gotta stopped everything n got changed and headed to MIL place and went to place where she can get her stuff. I worked at 4 pm on that day..by the time she finished shopping, it was already 2.30 pm..Kit suggested that we stayed at MIL place and later he would drop me off at work.
Oh well, at first i don;t feel good but i thought i could bring Ryan over to Nellie's place ( my old neighbour-very nice lady)
so we visited Nellie and sat till 3.45 pm and quickly left for work.
I was really beat that day!
Luckily i was off early coz no business on that day due to many ppl started to BBQ-ing . Nice day maaa.........
so, we stayed over at MIL's place for dinner.. and got back home around 8.30 ppm.
OF coz that nite i fed Ryan, i have learned the strategy, i scoop the rice first before she can do that..hahahahha
and of coz Ryan is always on my side..kekekekek ;)
Pretty much ok ok day , or week i guess. DUnno whatt's for this week..hehehehehe

two women fighting for lovee...
Is the time again.... where Kit told me we have to go visit his parents on Tuesday nite. It started with my MIL called on Monday nite saying there is a registered mail where we have to go pick it up at the post office. I answered the phone when she called and when i said "hello" , i heard she was kinda shock and hessisated awhile before she continue the conversation. She was surprised that i answered the call...coz normally Kit will answer the call. She dun even know my name that time...coz still in shocked!
I said Helloo, then she said..ahh ahhh...then i said.."ah ma ar, meh si? (in cantonese..meaning mom, what is it?) then she said..arr arrr..gene arr...then continue telling me abt the letter stuff...then i was asking her..whose letter is it? Because my sister in law,bro in law n us lived there b4..it could be one of us. So, she said she dunno, then i was like thinking inside..how come u dunno...of coz there is a name there on the letter whatttt... then i automatically thought hmmm..here she comesss another trick to trick her son to go visit them..n bring Ryan there of coz!
Sigh....... so i said..okie..hold on forawhile..let me pass it to Kit and u talked to kit..coz during our conversation..she doesn't seems like wanna talk to me.
So, as her wish, i passed the phone to Kit..n all Kit said was : Meh si ar ma?, awee..okieeeee..aweee..tin yat waa lei lor la. ( what is it mom? ..aweee, okie aweee...tommorow i'll c ome over to pick it up). THat was it..i was likee okieeeeeeeeeeeee...do i have to go? hmm..of coz i did not ask Kit rite away..of coz i did not show my face atall.. if not will upset Kit.
I know i know they are Ryan's grandparents too..butttttt heyyyyyyy... i am the one with the phobia for what she has done to me. I admit i need to get rid of those negative feelings..
i really can't help it! GOD HELP ME PLS!
soooo, before i can ask Kit whether we are going tomorrow or he go alone, he told me he will go to his parent's place rite after work. Phewwwwwwwwwww, what a relief.. Ryan and me can stay home and enjoy the peace and comfort in our own place.
SO the next day came, as planned Kit went to pick up the letter, n came back...he was upset and unhappy. So, I asked him why, what happened? He told me, "dad look tired and "chan" eh" then i say why..(my father in law started working at the grape yard..picking the grapes for the vinery process) it was a hard labour kinda thing. The hours is bad, he has to get up around 4 am n start work at 6.30 am then finished at 3 pm. He only gets half an hour lunch..that's it. N they pay him 10 bucks an hour..
he is out under the sun and brutal winchill almost the whole day..n comes back , still have to cook for his wife toeat..which the wife only comes back from work at 6 pm..
so poor old man. he is not used to that kinda life..coz back in Malaysia..he is a boss of a smlla machinery shop..so normally he just meet customers n have lunch and dinner.
sooooo...as kit was telling his dad stories,,bla bla bla..so i just listen then suddenly from his mouth his said..tomorrow (wednesday) we are going to visit them and have dinner there.
opppppppsssssssii! did i heard him wrong?
i was like stung by a bee or something... n felt soooo unhappy..but still my facial reaction was still the same.
"boh huaatt laaa" (cannot help it la) is his parents...pitty him also..so least bring Ryan there can cheer up the old man...
but not the old lady..boh shiok laaa..
anyway, we were there yesterday... and mil wasn't home.. still at work..was back around 6.30 pm
then..we had dinner.. FIL cooked seafood porridge and fried noodles . Ryan doesn't like porridge ...since he was young he doesn't like porridege..he prefer rice..he started to eat rice when he was 11 months. So, i knew ryan wont eat porridge..so i fedd him earlier at home b4 we go visit. SO Ryan is full..
so mil is not very happy when ryan doesn't want to eat the porridge..so i told her he doesn;t like porridge...
so she said feed him noodles... oh boyyy poor Ryan is soo full..he doesn't even wanna eat..she just keep insisting to feed ryan..n i told her he is full.
U see..food is the only way she can use to get close to Ryan..other than that..Ryan wont want to go near her..hahahaahha...I dunno why ...
so she wanted to feed ryan with her dirty fingers.. ( she worked in the nursery so her fingers and fingernails are full of the dirt and soil) n she never use the brush to clean ...she just wash her hands with soap as normal.)
soooooooo.....if u r Ryan's mother? would u like to see her fingers into RYan's mouth????
OF COZ NOT!!!
SIghhhh..so everytime i have to remind Kit...her fingers ar...very dirty eh...tell ur mom la..dun wait till i open mymouth...coz if it happens..it will be too late and will be too much problems eh
She also tried to annoyed me by trying to carry Ryan n forced Ryan to be in her arms in front of me. SHe knew i dun like it... she purposedly did that..andd...THank God Ryan is on my side...he doesn't want her at all..kept pushing her away...and kept coming back to me..n wants me to carry him..hehehehe
oh boyyyyyy..u should see my MIL's face...like a sour dough eh..hahhaha
It is sooooooooooo funnnyyyy..till now..she still doesn;t give up!
oppsieeeee...cannot contineu the story..coz RYan is up liao...continue tomorrow la...

marriage....love??
Why do ppl get married? because they love each other? because they love each other and wanna spend their lives together forever?
Hmm..interesting.. the reason i got married because shhhhhhh..dun tell my hubby ya...
well, our relationship is different.. we met online and we hardly hmm not hardly..we do not have the moments we can have like the usual couples. Sooooo... i would say that my marriage..was a rush decision...as in i wanna see him soo much, so i decide to get married and stay here with him.
That time , all we had was emails, phone calls ,and letters. Very challenging and it took lotsa courage for me to decide to come here and get married with my hubby.
That time i was just 24 years old, just finished my degree.. and all i thought was to see Kit and spend the rest of my life witth hiim..(never thought of how difficult married life is) hehehehe...no one told me...
never wanna know the difficulties...coz i was just too blinded by the love i have for Kit!
Not to say i regret marrying kit...but..i just felt like we are being put for test of patient and love..by GOD now.
I really love him.. but after Ryan is born, busy with work and other things....my fantasy of love is fading slowly.
It takes lotsa "give and take" situation in marriage.. man and woman are 2 different species... man can never understand the woman and the woman can never understand the man.
But, God has created woman in a speacial way that we are more sensitive and we have the inner intuition kinda thing.
We can sense thing... is kinda like the bug's radar thing. Kit has been very tensed up lately, i have no idea what's going on.
He doesn't want to talk about it... maybe because stress from work, stress from home? financially? tired?
I really dunno... i tried to talk to him yesterday nite.. he told me he is too stressed out from work and tired due to long hours of the work.
Hmmm, i really dunnno... i just felt like is it because he stressed out due to financial issue, we got the financial problem right after we got the house..
sighhhhhh... felt guiltyyy, if we did not purchase this house... we will be staying together with his parents..n i think i will go "koo koo" as in my mil will give me hard time.
Sighhhh..life sucks! Is it like that? i mean all married couple go through this? i really miss my single life at times...where there were no worries and stuff...hehehehe
Oh well, i am just dreaming now, really hope Kit will get better and i really pray for guidance and strength and love in my family!

still can't let go...
I was soo doomed on Thursday nite last week when Kit told me he wanted to bring Ryan to his parents' place on Friday nite while I went to work. Hmmmmmmmm...first thing hit my brain was *yaiks* the old lady!!! (my mother in law). Oh well, i just don't feel good whenever Ryan is around her.
I don't know why.. maybe because of what she had done to me last time. I've been through alot with her craps last time when Ryan was born. It haunts me till now.. eventhough i don't realize it myself!
I have always tell myself i have forgiven her and pray to God to forgive her..butttttt..deep inside me i couldn't let go. The fear of her taking away Ryan from me..haunts me everytime Ryan is with her.
Is pretty tough for me as in I cannot show my true feelings to Kit as he will feel bad. He is torn between 2. One is his mother and one his wife. Therefore, thursday nite i just cried inside..wishing that Friday will never come.
I couldn't sleep that nite worrying what will happened ? Hmm... i know i need help, some therapy or something... butt..i thought i was okie...i was alrite..i can forget and forgive.
Maybe I am too sensitive..butttt... the fear is wayyyy too much to cover everything.
The reason i behave like this..because when Ryan was born that time.. i wasn't allow to hold him and care for him except for changing his diapers. The only reason i get to change his diapers because my mil doesn't know how to change it. (last time they use cloth diapers and never use pampers or huggies before)
If she knw how to change...chia lat laaa.... i dun even have a chance to hold my own baby :(
I went through depression and loose weight..and thought of killing myself!
No one supports me except for my Toronto smom (dad's gf)
Kit couldn't do anything as he is afraid to go against his parents.
I went through hard time for more than 7 monthss till they decided to go b ack to malaysia!
Our marriage was affected that time.... Kit was upset and confused.
I was almost ready to file for divorce too eh....but whenever I look at Ryan...he gave me comfort and love.
Months and months gone by, Kit has finally realised that his parents were wrong and finally decide to tell them we will move out. When Kit told them that what they had done... of course they denied and blame everything on me. They even told kit that I am bossy and dominaring..n he is stupid to listen to me.
What i did wrong?????
to have our own place to stay, to take care my own baby and didn't even ask a penny from them to buy house? was it soo wrong to do that???
I do not understand at all... she wants to control Kit and always want to tie Kit to her apron strings..
They went mad and said lotsa bad stuff to Kit. For the first time... Kit ever go against them..as in didn't follow what they want Kit to do.
I felt bad for Kit and his sibblings..coz all these yearsss... they have no guts to say NO to their parents..even though they dun agree to what their parents say. All they do is just nod to whatever they want them to do.
Kit's parents used money to tied them down...like throwing money to elder sister to buy a $270k double storey detached house.. and as for the elder son in malaysia...bought hiim apartment, house..etc..and as for the youngest son? already bought a new car for him..20k eh.. toyota matrix.
so in return...the kids felt guilty and will always listen to them.
I told Kit never to ask money from them eh.. u will end up in their trap. THat's why they hate me soo much!!
They always underestimate me that i cannot raise Ryan and work at the same time.
HELOO!! i am raising RYAN very well now eh..he is healthy, happy and cute.
n i am helping kit with the bills too.. soooooooooo.. what else do they want??
sighhhhhhhhh..i really dun understand....i guess i will not.... i just hope God will forgive me and them..forgive me as in i cannot forget abt the pass and forgive them for what they have done and they are doing.

what a weekend....
woahh..being MIA (missing in action) from my blog..heheh oh well, pretty busy week for me. As i mentioned last week, Kit was sick..and Ryan caught the germs and he was sick too.
Therefor, i have to take care 2 babies at the same time. Before i continue...am just going to sum all the week's happening into one blog. It will be longgggggggggggggggggggggg...kekekeke
Anyway, back to the storie... yea Ryan sick..sooo...gotta watch hiim..makesure he is well dressed up.. i mean warm enough.. and makesure the heat in the house is warm enough for him. So pretty tiring and exhausted for me..coz Kit wasn't able to help me during evening coz he was sick too. So, one man show eh..walau ehh... i always thought i can handle..superwoman...but no eh.. i realized that Kit's help is important to me. I begin to appreciate his help now...pai sehhhh...before i was kindaa umm...thinking he doesn't do anything ..hehehehe..oh well..now i know lor.
After both of them recover.. guess i am not iron woman ..so me felt sick lor... yeaa...what to do... u have to cook, clean, make sure both of them okie , and not enuf sleep at nite..so all added up.. tadaaaaaaaaa..the germs attack me lor. So on Thursday i got the flue and dry cough. Ai ya ya... screw my long weekend plan..coz Friday Kit was off..(GOOD FRIDAY) and Saturday i took off as well.
So on thursday, feeling lousy but have to drag my fatt ass to work. Luckily nothing happened..it was a good nite.. no crazy customers. Came back at nite, took 2 Tyelenol (Panadol for malaysia)
and went to sleep. Can't really do anything that time..coz my brain was really toasted! I didn't even cook that day..luckily Kit managed to find something to eat..kekekek... ;)
On Friday, we woke up late... especially Kit..he really needed the sleep..coz every weekdays morning he has to wake up at 5 am ..so holiday is really luxury for him...
talking abt waking up late.... the late according to Ryan will be 7.30 am..hahaha... not 10 or 11 am ler... yeaaaa..what to do..our little king is our alarm clock during the holidays and weekend.
So we had bfast and ohh..i was a bit better from the cold..then..we went to Confederation Park in Stoney Creek for a walk.It was a good walk. I like the park coz the park facing Lake Ontario..is really big..the lake looks like umm..ocean eh.. It's been awhile since we had a walk.. so we walked till the end of trail. Pretty good for me..coz its been awhile since i work out eh..hahahahaa
Like what Kit said..we need to work on our body shape..no more growing sideways..have to figure out how to work upwards ..kekeke;)
anyway..we got back quite late from the walk..around 2 plus afternoon, then i have to get ready for dinner b4 i starts work.(starts at 5pm) yeaaaaaaaaa..no holiday for me...but i got time and a half for my pay...have to work la...heheheh next big bill will be the property tax eh.. ai ya ya...
soo...that nite pretty good niteeee.... customers all behaved themselves.
So, i was off on Saturday.Planned to go to Toronto, umm actually 2 places..first visit the asian mall..called Pacific Mall in Scarborough..where they sells lotsa umm bubble tea or like what my sis or her Meow called Teh Mutiara tek tek..hehehehe.. and lotsa dvds (pirated ones) movies one will be 5 for 20 bucks and XXX movies 3 for 20 bucks too..sooo of coz Kit will go for his XXX movies haiiiiiiii..mannnnnnnnnn what... but not for me...is sinful to watch such a thing..
anyway, anoother reason we went there is i wanna get my um those chinese herb soup thing...we call "PAT CHEN" is for ladies one...we drink it everytime we finishes our period every month. Good for women!
TOo bad i couldn't find any in Hamilton..so have to go Toronto or Mississauga to buy it. BOught 12 packets..stock up maa..hehehe hey not everytime can go out to Toronto one eh..
THen second place to go willbe visit my Stepmom...aunty,.. my dad's gf place . Its been a long time since i seen her..
Sounds like a great outting for us..buttttttttttttttttttt....this ah sum here..sick wor...bad bad bad timing la...went there walking around the mall with rudolph's red nose :(
but i still enjoying my teh mutiara tek tek..kekekek cost us 2.50 for one cup eh...tengggg so expensive one
the worst thing happened when we were there was...when we reached the mall.. i told kit i have to go to the washroom..so we went looking for washroom and after that.. we stopped by one of the store there s elling all Japanese stuff...all kind of things from kitchenware to bedroom stuff to toys. As we were walking and checking the stuff...tadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..guess who we bumped into???
we couldn't believe our eyes... we bumped into Kit's Sister and her hubby..so i called her hubby and said hi..then my sis in law said ...heyyy how are u... parents are over there eh..
aiksssssssssss...i was like eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee... whaat laa...the atmosphere was soo awkward eh.. Ryan was crying coz my sis in law scared him... (coz he seess her less..kinda like stranger)
stranger ? why? coz she never bother to calll us or anything... she is very selfish kinda person i guess..i dunno..whatever...
anyway...mil (mother in law) came over trying to carry ryan..but ryan doesn't want her... cried even louder... n she kept insisting wanna carry him...i dunno why she wants to do that..trying to prove to her daughter she is close to Ryan..? sighhhhhhhhhhhh that time.. i wasn't feeling good at all. THen suddenly sis in law asking me..u didn't work today ar? i said no..took off day..
then mil said..ohhh ddidn't know u off..if not will ask u out liao.. (hello?!! there is this thing call telephone ) anyway...all fake fake fake!!!
luckily they didn't said wanna walk n shop together..hahah if not spoiled my outing..
they just said okie la..bye bye...meet next time.. (in my heart..i was thinking..yea rite! better dun ler)
heheheheh
ok..that was in the beginning of the shopping...sooooo.. i just tried to not to think abt it soo much..n enjoy our outing. Hubby kinda felt funny..coz his dad doesn't even acknowledge him... i dunno why..maybe still dun like me?? i have no idea! Oh well...Kit was never their son anyway...their fav will be the only daughter and the youngest SON!!
Furtheremore Kit didn't even spend a single cent from them!
overall..the outing was good...Reached my aunt place around 3 plus..had dinner there and came back around 10 plus at nite..pretty tired.

busy cooking
Mondayyyy..ahhhhhhh....beautiful day... second day of spring and i am off work. What to do.. hmm...let see..tons of house chores waiting for me to finish. 2 basket of laundry full of dirty clothings waiting for me to put into washing machine, floor full of dust bunnies waiting for me to sweep, toilet full of dirt...waitingg for me to wash...
andddddd..i just feel good today. wanna know why? hey is monday maaaa... for other ppl.. monday always is bluee..but not for muaaaa.. monday is like heaven. :)
Oh well, ladies and gentlemen.. my house is not that dirty ler..kekekek.. i did some of the chores on Sunday. yupp i am very hardworking wife and mother eh. ahem ahem! ;)
talking abt sat and sun, oh boyyyyyy...full day and nite for muaaa...talking abt groceries days and house chores days eh... so..every weekend morning we woke up, we normally spend a lil longer time on bed..lazing around the bed playing with Ryan...u know..family time is very important. :) Normally Kit and I will debate who will get up first to wash up....soo what decide who go first? definitely the traditional game..."zoom three" u know where u hide ur hands and each other count 1, 2 and 3 then u show signs.. either rock, water or bird.. e.g. if one person shows rock and the other shows water...of course the water wins... cos water wash away the rock..and..rock will beat bird..coz knock over the bird..and bird will beat water coz bird drinks water..ehhehehe..
yup we still play that.. that's one of the fun we enjoy together every morning on weekend.
anyway, as usual, we have to go several stores to get our groceries.. asian store, western store (no frills, price chopper and food basic)..why? coz certain stores they have certain things on sale every week and every friday we receive flyers telling us what's on sale for this week. In the beginning, i felt funny coz why u wanna go to so manny stores just to save a couple cents?
wat abt the transaction cost? the gas fuel? hahaha oh well, that's Kit.. he like to save... more like a "china man" every penny counts!
soo..that's why every weekend we have at least go to 2 grocerries stores.
My duties on weekend will be... prepare, cut and clean the meat we bought ...be it chicken ,pork or fish... n put into bags..like divide them into days. in that way we can save even more...
yeaaa..waht to do..gotta save money..time now is hard lately... one piece of lean pork we bought from asian store (cost around 6 bucks cnd $) , we can eat for 4 days... yup..quite a big piece eh...so i have to clean and cut it into smaller pieces and put itto bags.. :))
After doing that..of course the house chores..sweeping, cleaning ,wiping...etc.
Wondering what Kit do? well, i'll let him handle Ryan..coz i had enuf with Ryan..hehehe...furtheremore Kit need to spend more time with him.
By the time i finish doing housechores...i have to get ready to go to work... i start work at 5.30 pm on sat and 4 pm on sun.. and finishes around 8.30 on sat and 7 pm on sun.
Sooo..pretty much fulll day for me already huh? soooo..monday will be my relaxing day..no worries abt what kinda topping the customer wants on their pizza or whatever ! just me and ryan! hahahha
and guess what i did today... since hubby is sick..(catched a cold) soo..i cooked him some soup.. chinese style soup... boil with chicken bone, red dates, water crest vege and ..umm this one i dunno what it calls in english..in hokkien we call "pek bok ni" is like curlish kinda thing...n u have to soak in the water in order to make them soft be4 cooking them...n they expand in size after they been soaked for awhile.
That soup cannot cure cold...butttt can sooth ur internal heat in ur body.. yeaa..hubby is heaty inside..coz his breath very smelly..plus he got mouth ulcer .
hmmm dunno why , lately he is not feeling weell..maybe stress from work, plus not enuf rest.
that' one dish... then i fried cabbage and carrot for another dish..and i steam fish with tofu.. to make the third dish.
Pretty much whole day i was preparing the food for dinner... well, u see i am not a good cook..i dun even cook be4 i came here.. u gotta understand where i came from... PENANG, MALAYSIA..haaaaaaaa....when u from Penang... there is no need to cook a meal at all eh..ahhahaah.. u can tell that when u read Joez-simply me, my sis's blog
she always promote places that is good for what food!
from bfast to supper..... ;)
but when u r here...u gotta cook mannn...eating out will put a big hole on ur wallet... trust me...a bowl of noodles cost u 6 bucks..but with taxes ...it comes to 8 or 9 bucks...seeeeee? worth it or not??? hehehehe
ohh contine continue...after cooking all 3 dishes... (normally i only cook 2 dishes) , i decided to bake cake... yup..first time baking too...
i browse through Kuali website..found this lemon cake recipe..quite interesting..n i got all the ingredients too..
so..i printed out the recipe and start to bake... but i modify it a lil b it...by adding banana to it..
The cake turn out good... not bad a first timer eh......
SOrry no pictures..coz camera downed...gone for repair.
hubby came back..happy ...coz all food ready on counter...and is hot too.. somemore got cake huh...a bonus for him already.
Someppl say..if u cannot win ur hubby's heart through ur body or looks... u gotta win his heart or rather his nose through ur skills cooking good food..and tie his nose tightly..not his heart..hahahaahah...
what to do..me no look and body...so left only cooking lorrrrrrr..
aikss....ryan is uupp fromm his nap :(
continue someother day. :)

Joke...joke...joke..
Joke for today
Malay version: warning...is a bit longgggg.... ;)
Kisah berlaku hasil cerita seorang kawan yg pernahdigangu roh abgnya selepas 3 hari mati. Dia kata abgnya mati sebab kena'main' org. Aku pun tertimbul idea cakap yg aku rasanya tahu mesti roh abg dia tak aman... maka dia pun bercerita... ...
As usual kekadang org cina nih suka masok kubur dgn harta dia org. So, abg dia dgn handset, laptop, PS2 suma sekali ikot masok. Dgn harapan abg dia dpt la mati aman sikit. So, lepas sehari...kemurungan dalam keluarga tuh masih ada. Jadi dgn cara sembahyang je diaorg lupakan kisah tuh. Sampai la ke hari kedua...mereka seolah dihantui roh si mati. Kawan aku cakap dia rasa setiap kali mcm ada sesuatu je yg panggil dia.Tapi dia buat dek pasal takut. Sampai la mlm kedua tuh...dia dgr ada orgketuk tingkap dia. Dia takut sangat, terus sambung tidur sambil menekup muka dgn bantal dan anggap semua tuh mimpi karut jer.
Sampai ke hari ketiga...satu keluarga mmg rasa seolaholah diperhatikan ke mana sahaja mereka berjalan dlm rumah. Dlm hari tu la kedengaran bunyi org selongkar almari...tapak kaki naik turuntangga...suara memanggil dari tingkat atas. Tapi semua buat dek jer..doakan benda tu berlalu pergi.
Sampai le tetiba handset si kawan aku berbunyi...dia angkat terus dan tetiba "Alo..adik yer?" Dia terkejut...dia tgk nombortuh...mmg sah nombor abg dia. Maka dia pun jawab balik "Abg ke?" dan serta merta air mata mengalir sebab dia rindu sangat dgn abg dia.
Abg dia pun reply balik "Adik...abg tak boleh lamanih. Abg cuba panggil adik tiap malam..tapi adik tak dgr" Kawan aku menangis je dgr keluhan abg dia..."Adik, abg nak adik tanya dekat mak" kataabgnya. "Apa dia bang?" Kata kawanku. "Tanya mak...mana dia simpan charger hp abg? letihcarik tak jumpa plak~!
heheheheh... somebody forwarded this joke to me..thot i share with u guys... ;)
have a great weekend everyone!!!

moody!mooody!mooody!
It's been awhile since i last post my blog..oh well, no time plus lazy. Ryan is getting on my nervs lately coz he seems to sleep less lately. What to do.. he found his mobility! He is driving me nuts by cruising all over the house and pulling everything he can touch. He gets his hands on everything he touch!.. what to do...time for him to explore the world. I can't scold him or angry of him.. coz he need to explore the world!(according to experts la). So, all i have to do is..just being his umm follower?? i dunno what to call myself... have to follow him around...making sure he dun hurt himself..
not to mention..becoming the slave of the house..why? n how? because our dear Ryan has a very super sharp eye sight...he can see tiny tiny..n i really mean tiny stuff on the floor..which we cannot see by our normal eyesight.. and what he will do is he will practice his fingers muscle..by pinching the tiny stuff on the floor n put inside his mouth. Dunno why he do that... i fed hiim on time..breakfast, lunch, snack ,tea time and dinner...he seems to be not getting enough from the food i feed him. He just likes to eaat more...n eat something is not food!
SOOO..everyday..i have to sweep and mop the floor..just to make sure is super clean..no tiny tiny stuff..need a binocular to check..just in case i left out something..hahhahha..
Apart from doing the mopping and sweeping, i have to cook for hubby and son (good wife and mother maa, hubby works hard n always come back hungry) bath Ryan and wipe Ryan's poop and pee.. sighhhh..soooooooooooooo... all added up..where got time to blog???
ahahah is just an excuse ler... sometimes i do have time to online..but i have nothing to blog... furtheremore i like reading ppl's blog than writing my own.. :)
I am updating my post tonite because.. i have to wait for the dye thing on my hair to work.. need to wait for 45 mins b4 i can wash it away. Dunno what to do...so online lor...Hubby taking care of the little one..so can relax a bit..hehehe
ANyway... yeaaa..i am moody today.. dunno why... maybe because i am frustrated with our busy schedules ...and no breaks for us. Is hard to raise ur own child by urself...with nobody;s help..i mean really nobody's help.. Some mothers have some help from their mother in-law or mother...
but not me.. My mom passed away 13 years ago..n my mother in-law... Aikssss..better dun go thereee...coz i dun like to talk abt my mother in-law.
SO...left me and my husband... raising one child...with limited resources (money) buuuttttt..heyyyyy that's life horr..
least we are proud ..as in..we bought the house with our own money..no help from parents...
ha! that's why my mother in-law no happy coz she is a control freak...she control all her children by lending money to them..then all her kids who use her money are at her mercy!
hahahha..but too bad not my hubby..that's why she hated me soo much...kekekke too badddddd suckerrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...
Least we can stand on our own feet...... beh shiok ar..beh kat ar...ya sinduk kat la (in hokkien ..no happy ar.. go kiss ur own ass la )
hahah..oppsie
sorrie..i got carried away...
i got moddie today because we supposed to visit the them yesterday..but they weren't in... dunno where they went..so hubby felt abit not happy..err..i think more scared as in... dunno where his parents went..
oh well, he is more worried that his parents thought he is no good son as in no bring Ryan to visit them..
Come onnnn la...we got our own lives here man...busy working..i gotta work thu-sun nite.. where got time..we dun even have time to sleep already..somemore got time to go sit there and pretend to be somebody else.
ha! i just hate being so fake and smile to somebody u dun wish to smile at.Furtheremore there will be no conversation happen there..because..u see..my hubby's background is different...i think i mention b4... they wont communicate one.... they just sit there..n expect each other to reach other's mind..waaa...ha lo.. is just year 2005 leh..not 2020 or 2050 ..so hi-tech meh..read ppl's mind..if i can read their mind..i won't be sitting here liao lor... awe tenggggggggggggggggggggggg
SIghhhhh.... that's life... i just wish and prayyyyy very hard...i even promise myself..that i wont be a pain in a butt inlaw to my future daughter inlaw...
AMEN!
okie dokie..there u gooooo..feel much betterrrrr...still got 10 more mins...then i can go shower ...then walaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... got my new dark auburn colour.. hehehe..
ahem.. not bad not bad.. :)
least better than grey hair la.... :)

Normal..noramal..normal day
Thursdayyyyy ...ai yaiyai ...meaning gotta work today.. i always freak out on thursday...dunno whhy...maybe because i am just too chicken out when ppl give me negative response at work. I am just too emotional sensitive. I admit i score zero for the emotional inteligence.. hehehe..well, that's me..i am very hyper sensitve type of a person.
Been trying to control my emotional... but it will take time for me to tackle the whole situation.
As always, morning i will wake up and get prepared for baby to have his breakfast(his fav. banana and whole wheat toast) and for myself will bee toast bagel with peanut butter and a cup of tea. I used to drink coffee and am a coffee person before i came to Canada...but right after Ryan is born..i switch to tea..maybe it calms me dowm more effectively!
hehehe.
Ryan and I will enjoy our breakfast in front of the tv watching Starting Over Tv show ..this a reality show abt women going through dilemas and trying to save themselves signing themselves into this starting over program. Trying to change and solve their problems with the help of life coaches. Very interesting show and i get to learn lotsa stuff being a woman.
When the clock hits noon...i just dun feel good abt everything...coz i started to freak out already. Gotta work at 5 pm... kept praying that i will get customers that are nice.
every hour i kept praying..hehehe i know i know..i am silly...and when i am freaking out..i got this freak out phobia..where i have to go to washroom...to do either big or small business...
When is 4.30 pm..i have already gone to the washroom 3 times to do big business twice and pee pee 5 times..ahhahaha...
u see ..how bad my phobia is... hehehehe ;)
anyway..God is so loving and kind...He is watching over me tonite...i got all good customers...nice customers..
even they are from Toronto..hehehe.. Am so blessed!
okie dokieeeeeeeeee...gtg now..time for me to zzzzzz...tomorrow will be another freaking day for me..hahahaha..God Bless everyone!

Hubby's Birthday
March 1st Tuesday....today Hubby turned 30 years old...yup..old man already...not young anymore.. Planned to give a small dinner treat (no money) which he agreed to only have KFC for dinner..coz every Tuesday KFC have this deal call TOONIE TUESDAY..it has 2 pieces chicken and a small fries for just $2.22..hey not bad huh.
He planned to take off today.. coz he has to renew his driver's license,license plate as well as has to take Ryan for his booster shot. it will be a full day for him... morning we woke up early...coz hubby wanted to go renew his license first ..coz he is not supposed to drive at all today..but he take the risk anyway. While having his breakfast...he went through the driver license letter again...all of a sudden..he shouted.."oh dear!! WTF!! then i said why? I have overlooked the letter eh... i have to send the car for emission test b4 i can change my driver license and license plate. ohh ooo...that will take hours or God knows how long...coz rite now is winter...plus today we got snow storm...if u can see outside..all the roadsie covered with 15-20 inches of snow... :(
sooo hhe was rushing through ...n mumbling by himself ..saying waht a great 30th birthday ..bla bla bla..
I try to keep myself calm...don't wish to add more fire to the situation ...i told him.calm down...u can make it...the doc's appoinment for Ryan is 2.30 pm..rite now is just 9 am...
we have 4 places to go all together..ehehhe i doubt it whether we can make it for ryan;s appointment..but i just kept PRAYING!
as he finishes off his bagel and coffee...he got changed and zoommmm ..out he went... to renew his licnese and book for the emmission test.
10.30 am..received a call from hubby..saying the test wont be done till after 1 pm... ohh oo...so i said..okie..why not u come back n take me and ryan to the health card office..to renew his health card first..
So we did..reached health card dept at 11.30 am...managed to get it done within mins...Thank God... hubby got grumpy....n kept saying this birthday sucks!
THen i kept consoling him..hey dun worrie..later u get to eat KFC???? hehehehehe
(oh well, he likes KFC...n not every time we get to eat ...)
not to mention..my Mother in law (mil) already called on monday nite to go over there for dinner...sighhhhhhh..she just love to do that...screw our plans..everytime..she never call to asked whether we have plans or not...just go ahead what she wants to do..n expect we are always free..
n hubby..(always listen to mommy) will never say no to his mom...
so that why kfc dinner has to change to kfc lunch lor :((
no fun at all ler
it happened also to our 2nd wedding anniversary.. :(
anyway...evverything went well...Poor Ryan got 2 shots..cried very loud..but lucky thing..he got his Hero (father) to held him tightly and comfort hiim.. :))
Ryan was happy to get his hands on the chicken as well..yup is Ryan's favourite..(chicken..as long as is chicken and fried) hahahhahaha
after having the good lunch..at abt 4 plus....around 6 plus..we have to go over to MIL place to have dinner..oh boy sooo damn fulll..can't even eat anything..
but no choice....what to do....
sighhhhhhh
ate a lil bit...she cooked lotsa stuff...fish,prawns,soup...pork...and tofu and vege...hubby's dad bought hubby a cake too..but they do not know how to express their feelings at all..didn't even say happy birthday to him at all..during dinner time...as usual..everyone is quiet..u can even hear a pin drop on the floor...
i guess they are just like that....expect u to know what they are thinking...but not for my side..
we belong to the extrovert side...we tell what we feel..that's how we are brought up...as for my hubby side...they kept everything..totally opposite.
by the way...his dad only took out the cake when we were leaving..n just handed over to him...nahhhh..here is ur cake..for u..
that's all..
huh??!!! is this how u treat ur son on his birthday?? geeze... if u never say it out loud..we dunno what u thinking..we can't read ur mind..hello?!!
anyway...we got home around 9 pmm...bath and slept around 11 pm plus...watched amazing race..heehhe...
it was an ok ok birthday for hubby... :)
