Sorry for not posting on my blog for the longest time ever...
Had been busy at work, at home and with myself...my pregnancy???
Am in my 3rd trimester now and little one arriving in 3 months time or earlier - no one knows, except HERSELF!!!

WORK
Trying to sort out the issue of my absence during my maternity leave - will be taking 3 months first...thanks to dear dear that I got 4 months of maternity leave :)
1st we decided on getting my assistant to cover, but after much thoughts and consideration, pluse her "not so willingness, in terms of her personal reasons"...we have to drop Plan 1
2nd, we tried to get some temp who can come in during the 3 months and cover me, but FB wasn't that keen to train someone for just 3 months, and also...watever lah!
As per our last discussion, FB said London will do the payroll for 3 months - for me, yeah yeah yeah, anyway, it's just 3 months mah...while Sandy wil support FB in the administrative roles for HR etc etc...
Fb gives me the impression that she's got her own workload and can't be covering all my duties, which I agree...but I just don't understand why she is against getting someone in??? Money wise, the rate is as per temp rate at $10 per hour...but she seems to bemore comfortable to want to train and work with Sandy...
BUT, I've got my reservations too...all the sensitive info lands in Sandy's hand may not guarantee a "sealed' mouth...I am not saying that she will go announce it all, but at times, she just dun exert descretion :(
HOME
Geeeeeee...not so good leh, cos no spring cleaning as, well, wat can I do? Also no decorations at all, cos dear dear is even more "pan-dang" than me!! Imagine that day when Wendy came and asked for super glue to glue her peeled off sandals, he passed her the glue, but shooed her away and ask her to glue at home...
So, this year, NO invite to my house leh, cos no cleaning and no decorations = No invite lo
Next year bah...next year my house will be nice nice...and I will do my "post" spring cleaning during my maternity, after I have rested for one full month (hopefully bah)
BABY
This little rascal is growing bigger and bigger each day, and I try my best to drink milk lor, and remember to talke my Iron and Calcium tablet...for her sake?? In addition to making me suffer for the initial 5 months, now that she is all well developed, she loves to practise her boxing and kicking skills leh...just anytime of the day, so long she happy...well, I will tolerate all her behaviour and wait till she's in my arms...kekekekeke...
Thats all for today...here's wishing all a Happy NIU Year and May You All be Blessed Throughout the Year :)

Yesterday, I was informed that one of our ex-colleague from SGX Marcom team was in ICU and in critical condition. My heart sank when I read the message, though I will not deny that those times when we were working together, we din really had a very amicable relationship.
It was later known that she had a blood clot removed from her left brain and is in stable condition now. However, something was discovered along the diagnose process and it was found that she has a lump or something peculiar in her left lung. She will be subjected to further test to ascertain the presence of that lump.
Her husband has rejected all visitors or any monetary donations as at now. I really hope and pray that she will get over this big hurdle and hit the road to recovery soon.
One thing amazes me from this whole episode is that the relationship of the Marcom team is still going on strong, despite the fact that almost 80% of us has left the SGX. Some disasters like this strikes and smses were all over us, enquiring on her condition and if help is needed etc. This is something really touches me...and of cos I have the leader to thank! She was the one who put together the team then, and build up this relationship amongst us, which had stayed with us, despite our individual departure.
Bottom line is, the team was abandoned by her cos she choose Position & Fame over us and sacrifices us all, making all of us leave her leadership in the end.
Life is kinda of a ?????

Too tired to even blog these days...so one can just imagine how tiring I am with this little one in me...Anyway, I am tired but happy...but just bear with me if you only get to see my blog being updated once in a month or so...
Well, life is always full of ups and downs...depending on how we want to look at it...but at times the hurt inflicted can be so painful that it makes you at a loss of how to react even! The pain is excruciating when the hurt is inflicted by your loved ones...for my case..."so called loved ones" bah...
I just wonder how should one define FILAL PIETY - does observing the celebrations rituals...parent's birthdays, Fathers' or Mothers' days etc OR simply have that tinge of filal piety-ness within one's heart is considered as sufficient?
Does one need to elaborately "publicise" his or her filal piety so that the parents can go show off or compare with other friends of theirs????
I am actually confused...very confused!
