Final Analysis

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered;

Forgive them Anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;

Be kind anyway.

If you succeed, you will win some false friends and some true friends;

Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;

Be Honest and Frank anyway.

What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;

Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, They may be jealous;

Be Happy anyway.

The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;

Do Good anyway.

Give the world your Best anyway.

You see, in the final analysis it is between you and God;

It was never between you and them anyway.

Chill Out Nite

It was the 1st time since i know darby that he 'chio' to go for a 'chill out nite' with his Mikoishi friends last friday! Of course i was surprised... ha ha ha


We had dinner at Lau Pa Sat before going to M hotel's J bar to listen to one of his friend play.. Dinner was not fantastic.. 10 beef n 5 chicken satay with rice cost $9 from store No.1!!!! Wah lau so ex.. and i was disappointed cos the meat was the minced kind.. Plus i was not even full after that.. Ordered curry chicken noodle + drumstick ($5), which was more satisfying man...
My darby 'trying out " the COOL look...Wah!!! Yan Tao!!! Slurp Slurp...

Movie Night

Watch Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince on Monday with my darby, his colleagues and my friends Kisane n Lee. The movie was not bad.. Couldn't really remember much cos i read the book a few years ago. So have decided to read the book all over again now to see wat was missing from the movie.. and apparently... A LOT!

As usual, my son really loves movies.. he'll kick n move Non- Stop! It was the same with Transformers 2.. I had my sweet + salty pop corns (that was before i know i had diabetes)! After that, we went to Aston at Cathay for dinner.. Yummy! But i was thinking the steak at the east coast outlet tasted better.. hmmmm

Alamak

Woke up to pee in the morning n saw a missed called from my doc.. Returned call and turned out... I've got the thing that i most dreaded- Gestational Diabetes!!!

Shit!!! was my 1st reaction.. than followed by F#&% no more supper :( hiaz..

Bo bian, i've got to go see a dietitian this sat and she will tell me wat i can eat n wat i can't. Luckily only 11 weeks more to go.. Can you imagine the torture... :(

Happy Birthday Wendy

Today is a Special day for my cousin Wendy, who will be celebrating her birthday away from home. How fast time flies, it's almost a year since she left us for Sydney!

Happy Birthday Wendy... I wish you a wonderful life filled with love and happiness. I hope others bring you joy, just as you've brought joy to us!

We Miss you!


For You, Birthday Girl...

There's nothing to fear --- you're as good as the best,

As strong as the mightiest, too.

You can win in every battle or test;

For there's no one just like you.

There's only one you in the world today;

So nobody else, you see,

Can do your work in as fine a way:

You're the only you there'll be !

So face the world, and all life is yours

To conquer and love and live:

And you'll find the happiness that endures

In just the measure you give;

There's nothing too good for you to possess,

Nor heights where you cannot go:

Your power is more than belief or guess ---

It is something you have to know.

There is nothing to fear --- you can and you will.

For you are the invincible you.

Set your foot on the highest hill ---

There's nothing you cannot do.

Revamping...

Looking at my blog n feeling bored with the colours n can't sleep so decided to revamp it! Changed the colour scheme and also the top.. i think now it looks more cheerful and happy!! I like it!!! :D

Been feeling abit stressed lately, maybe because of alot of miscomm abt issues during confinement time.. Hiaz.. I wonder who invented those stupid rules abt no bathing and wat to eat and wat not to eat?!? Why so many rules? Isn't after delivering a baby a time to rest and enjoy? No wonder some woman suffer from depression after birth. i dun see the population of ang mohs declining when straight after birth, they are able to take a bath and eat what they want and still surviving to a ripe old age. *really shake head*

Haiz, It's not that i wan to rebel against these "rules". I jus wan to discuss if there are ways to modify some of them...

Well, decided to jus not let anything affect me now and stay happy! :)

Eh. Ouey. You.

Isn't it funny how names are smartly removed from conversation whenever you chance upon an old friend. And for the next 5 minutes, you wonder who the hell it is you are talking to, all the while trying to avoid asking the question "Er, sorry ah... What's your name hah?"

A name is more than something that we simply respond to, it reflects our personality, and for some strange reason, even manages to define us. So despite how terrible, old fashioned, boring, funny, weird sounding you might think your name is... Face it, I bet you can't imagine yourself being called anything else, right? Trust me. My sis is called Gidgetelena and her friends think that I am the one with the funny name. Go figure.

Yet, despite knowing that everyone eventually settles into their given name, I would like to think that my son would one day thank me for giving him a name that was unique, representative and just plain cool.

Over the past few months, friends and family have been offering an onslaught of baby boy names. Ranging from the corny... to the fantasy-que... to the new age hip... to colours... to lost ancient scripture even... While all the time, I was holding on to the name which I always thought I would call my first born son. Kainan. It's a long story that you can read up in my earlier post.

So blame it on constant mispronunciations, sounds-like-jokes, or whatever, I concede defeat and it's time for an alternative name. Maybe it's the nerves of writing something in stone, maybe it's the fear of my kid's possible embarassment, maybe Sheila should name him instead, maybe I have better luck in naming pets, maybe...

Tristan.

Enjoy your new name kiddo. That's gonna be it! Or at least until the next name panic comes. :P Luv, Dad.
