Bear with me.. This is just a rant from an emotionally-charged pregnant woman..
To a certain someone.. I know that you are a regular reader of my blog, that is why I decided to place my thoughts in here..
If you've noticed, I've been distancing myself from you. I can't seem to help myself, knowing that in less than 2 weeks time, you are going to terminate your pregnancy. I just have this feeling of resentment towards you right now that I really really can't control. Blame it on the hormones, if you want. I even cried on the day that you told me about your decision and had nightmares about losing my own baby. :`(
Remember I told you about my wayward girlfriend who aborted her babies and confided in me? I am not a judgmental person. She's still my friend but there will be times that I wonder to myself, "What the heck is wrong with her?" and feel like giving her a tight slap. But since I don't see her on a regular basis, it kinda make it easier for me. On the other hand, I see you almost everyday. My heart will just break, seeing you staring aimlessly and unconsciously caressing your belly. You have this sad look on your face and it made me feel so crappy.
Sigh~
If my calculation is correct, your baby would be almost 2 mths by then and his/her heart would have already started beating.
It's not my intention to make you feel even worst at this moment since you really wanted to keep the baby but your hubby was the one who is against it. After asking around, I was told that if a husband forced a wife to do something that is against Islam, the wife have the right NOT to listen to him and it's not counted as a sin.
Every child that Allah bestowed upon us is a gift that we should treasure it. In my opinion, if you don't want to be pregnant, then protect yourself with contraceptives. If you ARE using contraceptives, and STILL conceive, then say "Alhamdulillah! Allah has decided to bless me with this baby.."
Who are we to play GOD and decide the faith of the baby by killing it??!!
For me, the only reason why a pregnancy can be aborted is when the mother's health is at risk or the baby has serious abnormalities (e.g. without a head/heart). Other than that, it's just an excuse from the parents for being irresponsible. Whatever it is, dearie~ you will be reunited with your baby on judgment day and you will be questioned. I have no doubt about that~
I've already told you not to worry about financial problem because Allah will surely provide. Setiap anak tu ada rezeki dia sendiri..
Oh well.. Suka hati kau lah, nak.. Kau pun dah besar panjang..
C'est La Vie~! That's Life..

A brief update on the little gymnast living in my belly :
My baby is soooooooooooo active nowadays.. tickling me from the inside and making me chuckle by myself every now and then. My tummy can now move by itself and I now look visibly pregnant.. So many of my new colleagues love to touch my tummy. One of them is so lucky to have felt the baby move. It's the best feeling in the world.. I can tell that hubby is very jealous of me right now.. Heh.. He kept touching my belly and wants to know where the head is.. or the baby is in which position.. Heehee.. It's not as if I know, right? Duh~
I feel so blessed nowadays. Alhamdulillah.. I've been transferred to a less stressful environment with a lovely group of people. I have a cool and flexible team leader who gave us a treat yesterday at Kampung Chai Chee restaurant.. Mmmm.. Butter prawns.. * Droolz *
Strangers has been treating me extra nice once they saw my bulging tummy by offering their seats or opening doors for me. Best kan? There was one time, I boarded a crowded bus and was feeling rather sickly. There was this nice gentleman who quickly offered me his seat at once when he saw me, just as I was about to faint. I think it was because of the low blood count that causes me to see stars nowadays.
Current Cravings : Doner Sandwich from Anatolia Turkish Restaurant (Far East Plaza). Been bugging hubby to bring me there since last week.. :(

Toughest job in the world~
Funny post about parenting.. LOL~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
POSITION :
Mom, Mommy, Mama, Ma
Dad, Daddy, Dada, Pa, Pop
JOB DESCRIPTION : Long term, team players needed, for challenging permanent work in an often chaotic environment. Candidates must possess excellent communication and organizational skills and be willing to work variable hours, which will include evenings and weekends and frequent 24 hour shifts on call. Some overnight travel required, including trips to primitive camping sites on rainy weekends and endless sports tournaments in faraway cities! Travel expenses not reimbursed. Extensive courier duties also required.
RESPONSIBILITIES : The rest of your life. Must be willing to be hated, at least temporarily, until someone needs $5. Must be willing to bite tongue repeatedly. Also, must possess the physical stamina of a pack mule and be able to go from zero to 60 mph in three seconds flat in case, this time, the screams from the backyard are not someone just crying wolf. Must be willing to face stimulating technical challenges, such as small gadget repair, mysteriously sluggish toilets and stuck zippers. Must screen phone calls, maintain calendars and coordinate production of multiple homework projects. Must have ability to plan and organize social gatherings for clients of all ages and mental outlooks. Must be willing to be indispensable one minute, an embarrassment the next. Must handle assembly and product safety testing of a half million cheap, plastic toys, and battery operated devices. Must always hope for the best but be prepared for the worst. Must assume final, complete accountability for the quality of the end product. Responsibilities also include floor maintenance and janitorial work throughout the facility.
POSSIBILITY FOR ADVANCEMENT & PROMOTION : None. Your job is to remain in the same position for years, without complaining, constantly retraining and updating your skills, so that those in your charge can ultimately surpass you.
PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE : None required, unfortunately. On-the-job training offered on a continually exhausting basis.
WAGES AND COMPENSATION : Get this! You pay them! Offering frequent raises and bonuses. A balloon payment is due when they turn 18 because of the assumption that college will help them become financially independent. When you die, you give them whatever is left. The oddest thing about this reverse-salary scheme is that you actually enjoy it and wish you could only do more.
BENEFITS : While no health or dental insurance, no pension, no tuition reimbursement, no paid holidays and no stock options are offered; this job supplies limitless opportunities for personal growth and free hugs and kisses for life if you play your cards right.

Hello world~~~!
Here's a snap of our baby taken this morning.. Nice pose eh? Heh.. I was surprised at how much movements our baby make till it was shown on the monitor, hiccuping away. Both the hands were in front as if in a praying position (baca doa).. So cute~
Everything seems to be ok, no complications so far. I have to take the dreaded glucose test next month due to family history in diabetes. Bleah~

Sweet reminiscence..
Reading this list puts a smile on my face.. :)
"50 things, Singaporeans aged 20 to 30 something would identify with.” Source Unknown
1. You grew up watching He-man, Transformers, Silverhawk, Ultraman, Super Friends, Woody WoodPecker, Tom & Jerry,Care Bears, My Little Pony, Smurf and Mickey Mouse. Not to forget, maybe Ninja turtles too.
2. You grew up brushing your teeth with a mug in Primary school during recess time. You will squat by a drain with all your classmates beside you,and brush your teeth with a coloured mug. The teachers said you must brush each side 10 times too. Not forgetting the silly red tablet which you know not the purpose for.
3. You know what SBC stands for.
4. You know in school, you could subscribe for the milk which will come before you go back home. Somedays you could get Chocolate milk, other days strawberry. The old magnolia fresh milk came in a triangular packet.
5. You were there when the first chinese serial, the Awakening was shown on TV.
6. Everyone in class would tremble in fear when someone with a gauze stuck in the mouth would go to your class and ask for someone’s name to go to visit the school dentist.
7. You find your friends with pagers and handphone cool in Secondary school.
8. SBS buses used to be non-airconditioned. The bus seats were made of wood and the cushion was red. The big red bell gave a loud BEEEP! when pressed. There were colourful tickets for CSS buses. The conductor will check for tickets by using a machine which punches a hole on the ticket. All SBS buses used to be manually operated, with a huge gigantic gearstick to the left of the driver.
9. Your favourite actor and actress were Huang Wenyong and Xiangyun. Next were Li Nanxing and Zoe Tay and the Aiyoyo woman (Chen Liping).
10. You’ve probably read Young Generation magazine. You know who’s Vinny the little vampire and Constable Acai. For some, cikgu will always ask to buy the “Dewan Bahasa” magazine.
11. You were there when they first introduced MRT here (Yio Chu Kang to Toa Payoh). You went for the first ride with your parents and you would kneel on the seat to see the scenery.
12. Movie tickets used to cost only $3.50. Tickets were scrawled across using big red pencils. Ushers brought you into the cinemas using big metallic torchlights.
13. Gals were fascinated by Strawberry Short Cake and Barbie Dolls. You also collected sticker books of things like Street fighter, The Semi-Pro Soccer League(For Boys) and carebears (For girls) by Panini, trying to complete the impossible task of filling up the sticker book.
14. You remember some taxis were green in colour. Taxis had gearsticks behind the steering wheel, with a transparent knob and little colourful flowers inside the knobs.
15. You longed to buy tibits called Kaka(20 cents per pack), and Ding Dang(50 cents per box), that had a toy in it and it changes every week not forgetting the 15 cents animal crackers and the ringpop, where the lollipop is the diamond on the ring. There were such things like the 20 cents dinosaur eggs, The 10 cents satay, Choki Choki Chocolate stick and not forgetting the all favourite 10 cents “Air batu” broken into 2 parts and shared amongst friends.
16. You watched TV2(also known as Channel 10) cartoons because Channel 5 never had enough cartoons for you.
17. All that you know about Cantonese is from the Hong Kong serials you watched on TV2. You probably would remember George Lam as the mustached man whose line was “ Are you OK?” in the Guiness Stout Advertisement.
18. You grew up reading ladybird books “READ IT YOURSELF”. Hardy Boys,Nancy Drew, The Three Investigators, Famous Five and Secret Seven were probably the thickest story books you ever thought you had. Even SweetValley High and Malory Towers.

23. Your English workbooks was made of some damn poor quality paper that was smooth and yellow. And the textbooks were striped in colour with different coloured stripes for different levels.
24. Some part of your school was ALWAYS haunted, like the toilet or clock tower or a certain block. You walk fast to avoid them.
25. The only computer lessons in school involved funny pixellised characters in 16 colours walking about trying to teach you maths. You printed with noisy dot matrix printers and use computer papers with two rows of holes at the sides. Mouse? What’s that?
26. Waterbottles, with your favourite cartoon character on it,were slinged around your neck and a must everywhere you go.
27. Boys loved to play soccer with small tennis balls in the basketball court.
28. Hopskotch, five stones,chapteh and zero point were all the rage with the girls and boys too… Remember 5 times, highest, one-inch…
29. Science was fun with the balsam and the angsana being the most important plants of our lives. Remember the “Young Scientist” badge you got when you completed the set of tasks in written on the Blue Booklet for Young Ecologist, Young Botanist etc etc? The 1st excursion to the Science Centre was the best day of your life.

31. You did stupid exercises like seal crawl and frog jumps.

37. You went to school in slippers and a raincoat when it rained,and you find a dry spot in the school to sit and wipe yourself dry. Then you wear your dry and warm socks and shoes.
38. During National Day, you would have to do and decorate your own shakers, usually using a cassette tape container, or an empty aluminium can with green beans inside all taped up and decorated with white and red paper. Who could forget the all-time favourite recorder you played during music lesson?
39. After exams, you brought Game & Watch to school, and play card games like ‘Snap’ and ‘Donkey’ and ‘Old Maid’ and you also play pick up sticks and Snake & Ladder and the aeroplane board game. The erasers with the flags were also a popular game. Either this or you would play those cards comparing aeroplanes, warships, or tanks; who would have more firepower or speed or weight, etc.
40. You remember you uncles, big brothers and father screaming and shouting in front of the TV when the S’pore soccer team (always in blue jerseys) play against the Malaysians.
41. Your friends considered you lucky and rich if your parents gave you $3 or more for pocket money everyday.

48. You remember songs sung by a huge group of people, like 4U2C, Feminin, Nico (Malay) and the English “We Are The World”. In Sec Sch, you listen to Bananarama, Jason Donavan, Kylie Minogue, New Kids on the Block, ABBA, and Tommy Page (Remember ‘A Shoulder to Cry On’?)
49. Large, colourful schoolbags were carried. And fanciful pencil cases with lots of small tiny drawers, trays, sharpener or thermometer, that pop out at the push of a button were the ‘in’ thing.
50. You brought every single book to school, even though there was one thing called the timetable, written on the inside cover of your little blue notebook.

Still under house-arrest..
I am bored.. really really really boredddddddddddddd....
My favourite cartoon shows on cable are showing re-runs now. Arrghh..
I was watching Spongebob with hubby and I can say out aloud what the characters are going to say next, complete with the funny accent. Heh.. Sampai dah hafal script tau, are they hiring? ;p~ Because of that, hubby looked at me kinda funny and commented that I should go out more but I am happy right where I am. I love to annoy him with my annoying Spongebob accent while he love to annoy me with his endless 'makcik questions'.. ermm.. okie.. that came out somewhat wrong. You'll understand it better if you watch this youtube video. Hehehe.. Hubby will ask questions exactly like the way that makcik do. It's funny in the beginning but can be darn irritating after a while.
Well.. Here's a list of my fav cartoon shows :
Spongebob Squarepants (Ohhh.. Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?)
Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends
Dexter's Laboratory
Camp Lazlo (The character Lazlo sound & act like Spongebob)
Fairly Odd Parents
The Angry Beavers
The Wild Thornberries (Ooh.. I wish I can talk to animals)
Hey Arnold! (Character Olga reminds me of me when I was young..)
I am really looking forward to that gynae appointment on 10/5/07!

Goodbye first trimester..
Hallo second trimester.. Been looking forward to see you since I heard that you come bearing good news..
You know.. Good news like 'My hormones have now stabilised and my morning sickness should disappear by now'.. or 'I should expect a spike in my energy levels and won't feel so sluggish'..
Gosh.. I would even have settled for 'Your nose would be less sensitive by now and you can kiss your husband without gagging or going to the kitchen without wretching your guts out'..
Huh??!
What do you mean I have to wait for another 2 weeks??!!
Arrrghhhhhhhhh...
&^%$#!!!!
Takpe.. Sabar Ayu.. Sabar~~~
;p~

Your security will be at risk and our women will become maids in other people's countries..
Believe it or not, the sentence above was uttered by our 'beloved' MM Lee Kuan Yew. It was one of the reasons he gave for the recent ministerial payhike.
Logical tak?
We are not paying to get better leaders.. we are just paying our leaders better.. :(
I came across this hilarious blogger while bloghopping. Very crude but to the point. Uses lots of vulgarities so readers discretion is advised.
http://www.insanepoly.com/blog/?p=325
Someone in perkahwinan.com mentioned my favourite book, Animal Farm by George Orwell..
Here's a link to the free online book --> http://www.george-orwell.org/Animal_Farm/0.html
Go read it..

All-Day Sickness..
I swear I will never take 'feeling normal' for granted ever again..
I used to be angry when I hear women complaining about how bad their morning sickness are or when I hear them complaining about how difficult their pregnancies are because I was badly trying to conceive. Sekarang dah terkena batang idong sendiri baru padan muka hang.. Hahaha..
Anyway, for those who are not in the know, I am now 11 weeks pregnant. Yay! I thought I wanted to wait till the 1st trimester is over to make this special announcement but I simply can't wait! I've been vomitting non-stop and admitted to the hospital for 3 days due to dehydration.
Sigh.. The joy of motherhood.. ;p~
Here's something funny to share with you all :
Oh well.. Just another 1 more week.. Let's hope that this 'sickness' will disappear.. InsyaAllah~

Anyway, for those who are not in the know, I am now 11 weeks pregnant. Yay! I thought I wanted to wait till the 1st trimester is over to make this special announcement but I simply can't wait! I've been vomitting non-stop and admitted to the hospital for 3 days due to dehydration.
Sigh.. The joy of motherhood.. ;p~
Here's something funny to share with you all :
Some women are lucky; they don’t get morning sickness. There are some that have a little less luck; they get some morning sickness. Then there are the rest of us, the women with weeks of non-stop vomiting.
All that non-stop vomiting has a name: Hyperemesis. I have a feeling that hyperemesis is Latin for “Poor woman that vomits everything in sight.”
Since hyperemesis isn’t that well known, most people tend to ask questions such as “have you tried crackers?” or “I hear that ginger works.”
For many women, the only thing that works is having an 8-pound baby shoot out of her crotch.
I know that people are trying to be helpful, but it is really hard not to go postal on someone offering “advice,” especially if you spent the night before in the emergency room, getting IV fluids for dehydration.
I can’t tell you how many times I wanted to say “Crackers? Really? That’s all it takes? Eating a few stinking crackers? I’ve been vomiting for five months straight and all I needed to do was eat a stinking cracker?”
Hahaha.. Trust me. I've tried everything from crackers, kurma, asam masin, preserved ginger, ginger drink etc etc.. It didn't work! I've shunned all my friends, stayed in my room feeling so sorry for myself and 90% dependent on my hubby. It's so hard to stay chirpy and happy about this pregnancy when you have to run to the bathroom every hour or so.Oh well.. Just another 1 more week.. Let's hope that this 'sickness' will disappear.. InsyaAllah~

Here's the picture of the radiant bride-to-be in red, Mashita in the middle and yours truely in blue..
Wedding would be held sometime in November.. Insyallah~
A word of advice for her : Cherish and treasure every moment with your family.. Especially your mom.. *sob* *sob* Coz I really miss mine badly~~ That's why when I see Mak nowadays, ada sikit nyer menjeng.. Sakit kepala pun telipon Mak.. Sakit lutut, ngadu kat Mak.. Then Mak pun tolong urutkan.. Sayang Mak~ *sob* *sob*
And here's some picture of me with Mak~! As usual, ada jer yang nak menyelit kat tepi.. Muahahaha.. 
And then.. Here's Aiman.. Taa Daa~~~~
Can still fit him in my little handbag.. Hur hur~~ Melalak Abg Yunos.. Probably nangis tak berlagu pasal Aiman dah kena kidnap ngan Makcik dia..
Hmm.. What else eh?
Oh ya.. A week ago, I've been experiencing cramp on the left side of my tummy for days. Like period cramp, but it's only one-sided. I was like, OH NO!.. I thought that I got ectopic pregnancy..
But.. Syukur Alhamdulillah, the pain went away after a while.. It's probably muscle cramp. Nevertheless, dear hubby was put on 24hr standby with 30mins respond time, in case the pain worsen and accompanied by bleeding. Heehee.. Never really told anyone about this pasal takut orang ingat kita ni weak sangat.. asik SAKIT jer si Ayu ni..
Sigh.. And I've been declared as the MC Queen in my company..
*stomps feet* NOT FAIR! NOT FAIR! NOT FAIR! Tau takpe~
Well.. Let's look on the bright side. Now they can't complain anymore if I go on long MC..
My excuse?
"I am the MC Queen, right? It's an honour and I will need to maintain my reign, else, it will be usurped by someone less worthy than me!"
Sigh..
That's all..

Feelin' Queasy..
There are a lot of first-time experience for me this year. Another one to add to the list would be; First time being admitted to a hospital. Hehehe.. here's the story..
Tried to self-medicate myself by taking Lemsip Lemon for flu & fever. Unfortunately, my cough & flu continued to wreak havoc in my system, so I visited another clinic near my workplace. The doctor there prescribed me with flu tablets, cough syrups (I requested for a non-drowsy one) and lozenges for my throat.
That night, we had a meeting with a potential client and I really really do not wish to re-schedule this meeting anymore coz it'll made us looked like some unprofessional hobos, so I took the medication given religiously. Apparently, I wasn't prepared for another attack. When we were at my client's house, my tummy started to sound & feel like ermm.. a war was going on in there. I panicked and my brain started to go through all the crap that I've eaten for the past 12 hours. I nudged my hubby and mouthed the word, 'Stomach problem' to him and pointed to my tummy because I don't want the whole world. Very embarrassing lah dey~
Sigh~
I excused myself and dived into the bathroom.
Twice.
When the feeling came again for the third time, I quickly nudged hubby again to quickly wrap the discussion so that we can go home, in an afford to save my waterface. Hahaha.. Apparently, the client had other things on her mind and she still wanted to continue. She went on and on and on and on and on and on and on..
Have you ever had moments when time was moving ever so slowly? When time just crawls to a stop? That was how I felt. I could see the cracks on the ceiling, tiny little ants, hear the second-hand on the clock ticking, hear my heart beating, see the dust on monitor.. I hear everything else, except for the sound of my client's voice. I was on nodding-and-smiling-politely-regardless-of-what-was-said-or-done mode.
And then.. fever started to kick in and I was beginning to feel cold.
When we finally reached the carpark in Ubi, I jumped out of the car before hubby can even park it, ran to the lift, pound on the buttons of the lift, tap my feet continuously while the lift moved, ran all the way to the door, fumbled around with the keys, gritted my teeth in frustration as the keys dropped to the floor, almost laughed out loud when the door finally opened, threw my bags to the floor and skipped to the loo my darling~.. Heh..
Before going to sleep that night, I ate another medicine for diarrhoea, hoping that my sleep won't get disrupted by going to the toilet for a few more times.
Hah~! I was dead wrong.
At 3am, I was rudely woken up by a sharp pain on my upper stomach area. It was excruciating! I thought that the pain was a temporary one, but I was wrong. Hubby got me ready to go to Tan Tock Seng Hospital. I was delirious and asked Hubby for forgiveness in case I am going to die, while he looked at me like I am mad. Hahahah..
We reached the hospital at around 3.30am. The person there asked me if I can point out the scale of the pain that I am having, between 1 - 10. I almost said 20, but knowing that they usually have no sense of humour (like airport staff lah), stopped myself and said between 7-8 instead. Bleah~ Ya lah.. What if he quickly paged for his top surgeon and wheeled me into the operating room? Then they will open me up and see what was the thing that can cause such unspeakable horror in me. Heehee..
At last, when I finally get to see the doctor (which was pretty fast. They gave priority to me first, I think because they can see the agony in my eyes), he asked me if this is the same pain as period cramp because coincidently, yesterday was also the 1st day of my menses (Yeah, I know.. Tripple whammy!!!!). I said no, the pain is unlike the kind that I've ever had. I have never experienced such pain in that region before. After he injected painkiller into me, I felt light-headed and can feel the pain slowly disappear but it was replaced by a tight pulling sensation. My breathing was back to normal and I was wheeled to the observation room.
At 6++am, the pain returned with a vengeance. It striked me with double the force and Hubby had to run to a staff nurse for help while I writhed in agony on the bed. The doctor came again with the magic syringe, and a few minutes later I floated into the air once more, seeing rainbows and unicorns. Fortunately, the drama ends there and I was discharged an hour later. Was given a huge dosage of painkiller (tablet form), just in case.
Well, that was my horrendous experience. Surprise surprise, I am back in the office this morning. Tummy still feeling queasy. Apa nak buat.. dah nasib badan..
I don't know what is wrong with the people in the office. I was on MC because I was unwell. Or would they prefer me to go to work, feeling crappy? Spread my virus around? I think Jolly has caught it also because she's on MC today with the same problem I had previously. Hahaha..
Ok lah. I got to get back to work now. Tonnes of things to do.
:'(

Sick~
I've been feeling a tad under the weather lately.. Boo hoo~
It all started with my throat being infected, which then unleash a series of other health problems onto me. Fever (on and off), incessant coughing (annoying too!!), migraine (arrghhhhhhhhh~) and now.. the grand finale (hopefully) --> Flu.
Ta da~~
All in a space of less than a week.. (and only 1 day MC too!) All my meetings with close friends and clients had to be rescheduled. Honestly, I've never been this sick before. A record had been broken. Hurrah~
Still nursing my flu and cough. There is a slight improvement with my voice now, compared to the past few days. Evil male colleagues had their laughs, poking fun at my super sexy husky voice. Hahahhaa...
Last Saturday, I managed to take a peek at Yanti's cutie pie daughter, Intan Marisha. Sorry, no picture taken because I was too slenger to take out my handphone to snap. Don't blame me, blame it on the various medicines that I've taken, ok? Heh..
Oh yeah~ Did some serious aliens'/floods' butt-kicking in Halo 2 while I was on MC. Power dok~ Can't wait for the ending!

7% GST..
When I heard the news that the government (the one that 66.6% had voted for in May) wanted to raise the GST to 7%, my initial reaction was I.simply.couldn't.believe.it.
Speechless..
Then after the cloud of disbelief had lifted, my blood started to boil.. I can feel steam coming out of my ears.. Smoke came out of my nose as I huffed and puffed in anger.
So I surfed the Net to get more info.
Reason for the hike? According to PM Lee, "Hike was necessary to finance the enhanced social safety nets, needed to help the lower income group and he emphasised that the offset package would more than counter the rise in GST."
What lah all this bullcrap~! A peasant like me knows that the GST increase is only going to hurt the poor instead of helping them. Unless they are not going to tax on necessity items like groceries, textbooks.. then perhaps it wouldn't be so bad. Tax only the luxury items so that it will hurt the rich's deep pockets. And what offset package is he talking about? Issit like previously when they issue ERS to us to soften the blow of the GST increase? Hah! Kelakar siak!
Here's another one from PM Lee, "I'm not going to tax 15% on income tax, I'm not going to tax 25% from GST the way the Scandanavians do, but I have to make the adjustments of 2% which I think is fair and I think Singaporeans will support."
Why are you NOT going to tax 15% on income tax? Income tax is exactly where you should raise because like Robin Hood, you will be stealing from the rich to give to the poor. Or is it because you YOURSELF are not willing to contribute to the poor since you YOURSELF are among the top of the pile with your million-dollar paycheck??!! And STOP COMPARING SINGAPORE TO OTHER COUNTRIES!! Each country is unique. I heard somewhere that the GST is higher in OTHER COUNTRIES because they HAVE WELLFARE system to help the poor.
Sigh.. How? I am tired. More and more things are being revealed, hinting at me that my government just don't love me anymore. I love Singapore, it's just that I loathe the government that governs it.
I feel like I want to quit being a Singaporean. Tender my resignation. I thought I wanted to blog about this Malay teacher that I had in Secondary school, instead, I rant and rave about my incompetent government. Blah~

Just some random stuffs...
- Latest addition to the family
Muhammad Aiman.
Born on 17/10/06 at 2248 in KKH.
I was drowning in a green pool of envy when I saw him.. Hahaha..
Look at this precious bundle of joy.. Please ignore my hideous double-layered eyebags (got such thing?), it's a Ramadhan special.. Hur hur~
Feast your eyes with more of this little dude here
He was fiercely protected by his sisters. I tried to sneak him into my large handbag but was viciously attacked by Nabila.. Gosh! That girl sure know how to pinch.. LOL~~
But I still adore Huda (girl in green tudung).. Look at her.. Geram kan? Heehee..
- “Straits Times keeps No 1 spot, drawing 1.35m readers.”
Oh yeah? And you are competing for the top spot with... ??? Berita Harian? Tamil Murasu? Lianhe Zaobao?
Duh~
That's why I no longer read the local paper anymore. What were they thinking?
Hallo~ I not stupid.. you know!
- ROAD HOGGERS!
2 words for you.. &^%$ OFF!
They didn't even let an ambulance (the lights on the roof was flashing) through. You know what? One fine day, you'll be lying, dying in an ambulance with all the lights flashing and the siren blasting loudly.. and then no one.. ABSOLUTELY no one.. will give way to you..
What goes around, comes around..
Nah.. I am not cursing anyone. Just stating the fact.
- My thoughts on Singapore government
Any of you ever played Simcity before? I have. For those of you who don't know, this game allows you to create your own city. You are in-charge of EVERYTHING! From laying down the water pipes to setting sections of the city for agricultural, commercial and residential. You can build schools, fire departments, police stations and place them according to the needs of your people. It's FUN for a control freak like me. Heh.
In the beginning, I started with a small farming community. With the little money that I have, I started my city slowly. I cared and listened to every little complain that my people have and worked hard to garner their supports. Too much criminal activity in your neighbourhood? Not a problem, I'll try my best to build a police station there, Mam!
This caring little city managed to entice more people to move into the city, which in turn, brought in more money. I gained more and more money as the years goes by. My city was famous! It's growing so well and more importantly, I am RICH! But not rich enough!
Then, I decided that I needed to expand my horizon. Needed more $$ for it, but I don't want to kacau my own pocket! Duh!? So how?
Hah!
I started to squeeze even more $$ from my people.
How else?
From raising tax of course! Road tax lah.. ERP lah (ooops.. Wrong City!).. and a personal favorite --> Transport Hike! Of course they complained.. I'll just turn a deaf ear. Or I pretended to listen and take down their concerns.. BUT I NEVER ACTED ON IT! ** evil laugh ** or give lame excuses justifying my evil deeds..
My population started to dwindle a bit but still, there are loyal supporters who stayed. Those who left are Quitters! I have no use for them. Muahahahaha..
Then, the next big thing was to build a BIG A$$ Casino. I've done my calculations and it shows that my earnings will be doubled as time goes by. So many of my citizens actually protested. I just rolled my eyes and clicked 'Yes'. Crime rate goes up due to the negative aura that the casino has brought in. I couldn't care less. What matters to me was the sweet sound of 'kaching' 'kaching' as the dough starts rolling in.
So.. these are my thoughts. I even named my City - Temasek. I've been dying to share it in my blog but never really find the time. Hehehe..
** Ermm. Provocative post.. I know.. If I go MIA, you know why ah..
- Maiden Voyage (1st time lah)
1st time celebrating as someone's wife. Didn't really see what's the big deal was.. ;p~ It's just different because my parents were not there and was replaced by his parents. Am I sad that I didn't get to celebrate with my parents? Not really, because I know they are just a phone call away and it's not as if I am not going to visit them later..
The only part that was memorable to me was in the morning. After hubby and I were dressed and ready, we salam, asked for forgiveness from each other.. a quick hug and a peck on the cheek.. and that's it! Perhaps we are still new..
But I just felt that it's really redundant, because we do that every morning without fail and sometimes before going to sleep. Outside, his family was waiting. I proceeded to salam and ask for forgiveness from his parents and siblings.
- Am I or am I not?
The last time I checked, I am not pregnant.... yet. It's no biggie..
Really..
I am not just saying this because I want to appear cool and uncaring.. I am just being realistic. Relax lah, I just got married 8 months ago. Azmi kata his commando belom keluar lagik..
Hehehe..
And what's with my mom saying that my womb is out of place (don't ask me, I have no idea that it can move about).
Once we move to a new house (moving to our dream house soon..) and when all the dust has settled.. and if my tummy is still flat (HAHAHA! Yeah right~!).. then we WILL do something about it.
And then, even if 1 of us has fertility problem (Read: Sterile), so? It's not the end of the world lah dey.. Maybe we can be those cool childless couple who travel the world together.. hand in hand, with a Lonely Planet travel guide on the other.. Or maybe, just maybe, we can adopt a few babies (you have no idea how many babies are abandoned/unwanted) and bring them up as our own. Muhrim issues? No problem. We'll work around it. When there's a will, there's a way.. ;p~
Or I can lavish all my attention on my adorable nieces & nephews..
MIL asked me the other day if I was on birth control pills. I told her the truth. I think her relatives have started asking and she's probably worried.
We are not using any contraceptives method at the moment. Well... There are days when I wish I was on it when I came across unruly teenagers or really really naughty toddlers. Bleah~ Babies are all cute and cuddly.. Just you wait.. a few more years and then the next thing you know they'll start going through puberty and have the impression that the world revolves around them.. Hahaha..
Yeah.. I told MIL the truth. Told her how uncomfortable it is when people keep asking me about it. Told her that I felt pressurised. She understands. She knows that some people can be so blunt when asking these questions and unknowingly hurt our feelings. Well, what do you know? They've stopped asking altogether and I highly suspected that my dear MIL has a hand in this. Hur hur hur~
- Bz bz bz..
I've been buzzing around in the office. There are days when I wish I can just sms 'Hi Sam, I am not coming in to work this morning. Or tomorrow either. In fact, I QUIT!' and then just curl up in bed and Zzzz...
I've been busy at home with my new home business.. Too busy to give my blog the regular updates it sorely needed. Sigh..

Oh yeah? And you are competing for the top spot with... ??? Berita Harian? Tamil Murasu? Lianhe Zaobao?
Duh~
That's why I no longer read the local paper anymore. What were they thinking?
Hallo~ I not stupid.. you know!
- ROAD HOGGERS!
2 words for you.. &^%$ OFF!
They didn't even let an ambulance (the lights on the roof was flashing) through. You know what? One fine day, you'll be lying, dying in an ambulance with all the lights flashing and the siren blasting loudly.. and then no one.. ABSOLUTELY no one.. will give way to you..
What goes around, comes around..
Nah.. I am not cursing anyone. Just stating the fact.
- My thoughts on Singapore government
Any of you ever played Simcity before? I have. For those of you who don't know, this game allows you to create your own city. You are in-charge of EVERYTHING! From laying down the water pipes to setting sections of the city for agricultural, commercial and residential. You can build schools, fire departments, police stations and place them according to the needs of your people. It's FUN for a control freak like me. Heh.
In the beginning, I started with a small farming community. With the little money that I have, I started my city slowly. I cared and listened to every little complain that my people have and worked hard to garner their supports. Too much criminal activity in your neighbourhood? Not a problem, I'll try my best to build a police station there, Mam!
This caring little city managed to entice more people to move into the city, which in turn, brought in more money. I gained more and more money as the years goes by. My city was famous! It's growing so well and more importantly, I am RICH! But not rich enough!
Then, I decided that I needed to expand my horizon. Needed more $$ for it, but I don't want to kacau my own pocket! Duh!? So how?
Hah!
I started to squeeze even more $$ from my people.
How else?
From raising tax of course! Road tax lah.. ERP lah (ooops.. Wrong City!).. and a personal favorite --> Transport Hike! Of course they complained.. I'll just turn a deaf ear. Or I pretended to listen and take down their concerns.. BUT I NEVER ACTED ON IT! ** evil laugh ** or give lame excuses justifying my evil deeds..
My population started to dwindle a bit but still, there are loyal supporters who stayed. Those who left are Quitters! I have no use for them. Muahahahaha..
Then, the next big thing was to build a BIG A$$ Casino. I've done my calculations and it shows that my earnings will be doubled as time goes by. So many of my citizens actually protested. I just rolled my eyes and clicked 'Yes'. Crime rate goes up due to the negative aura that the casino has brought in. I couldn't care less. What matters to me was the sweet sound of 'kaching' 'kaching' as the dough starts rolling in.
So.. these are my thoughts. I even named my City - Temasek. I've been dying to share it in my blog but never really find the time. Hehehe..
** Ermm. Provocative post.. I know.. If I go MIA, you know why ah..
- Maiden Voyage (1st time lah)
1st time celebrating as someone's wife. Didn't really see what's the big deal was.. ;p~ It's just different because my parents were not there and was replaced by his parents. Am I sad that I didn't get to celebrate with my parents? Not really, because I know they are just a phone call away and it's not as if I am not going to visit them later..
The only part that was memorable to me was in the morning. After hubby and I were dressed and ready, we salam, asked for forgiveness from each other.. a quick hug and a peck on the cheek.. and that's it! Perhaps we are still new..
But I just felt that it's really redundant, because we do that every morning without fail and sometimes before going to sleep. Outside, his family was waiting. I proceeded to salam and ask for forgiveness from his parents and siblings.
- Am I or am I not?
The last time I checked, I am not pregnant.... yet. It's no biggie..
Really..
I am not just saying this because I want to appear cool and uncaring.. I am just being realistic. Relax lah, I just got married 8 months ago. Azmi kata his commando belom keluar lagik..
Hehehe..
And what's with my mom saying that my womb is out of place (don't ask me, I have no idea that it can move about).
Once we move to a new house (moving to our dream house soon..) and when all the dust has settled.. and if my tummy is still flat (HAHAHA! Yeah right~!).. then we WILL do something about it.
And then, even if 1 of us has fertility problem (Read: Sterile), so? It's not the end of the world lah dey.. Maybe we can be those cool childless couple who travel the world together.. hand in hand, with a Lonely Planet travel guide on the other.. Or maybe, just maybe, we can adopt a few babies (you have no idea how many babies are abandoned/unwanted) and bring them up as our own. Muhrim issues? No problem. We'll work around it. When there's a will, there's a way.. ;p~
Or I can lavish all my attention on my adorable nieces & nephews..
MIL asked me the other day if I was on birth control pills. I told her the truth. I think her relatives have started asking and she's probably worried.
We are not using any contraceptives method at the moment. Well... There are days when I wish I was on it when I came across unruly teenagers or really really naughty toddlers. Bleah~ Babies are all cute and cuddly.. Just you wait.. a few more years and then the next thing you know they'll start going through puberty and have the impression that the world revolves around them.. Hahaha..
Yeah.. I told MIL the truth. Told her how uncomfortable it is when people keep asking me about it. Told her that I felt pressurised. She understands. She knows that some people can be so blunt when asking these questions and unknowingly hurt our feelings. Well, what do you know? They've stopped asking altogether and I highly suspected that my dear MIL has a hand in this. Hur hur hur~
- Bz bz bz..
I've been buzzing around in the office. There are days when I wish I can just sms 'Hi Sam, I am not coming in to work this morning. Or tomorrow either. In fact, I QUIT!' and then just curl up in bed and Zzzz...
I've been busy at home with my new home business.. Too busy to give my blog the regular updates it sorely needed. Sigh..

A quickie~
Here's a quick update..
Ayah is now able to walk without using the cane. Syukur Alhamdulillah~ I can also see that he is putting on a bit of weight as well as his voice is a tad more audible now..
See? I told you that Ayah's health will improve once he get out of that dreaded and lonely isolation ward. Now we are just waiting for the next appointment so that Mak can highlight the hearing problem to the doctors.
A quick 'HI' to Fauzi as well~
Thanks for the testimonials in Friendster..
Ok~ Back to work~~~ ;p

Have a blessed Ramadan..
Alhamdulillah syukur~
Ayah had been discharged from the hospital last Friday (22/09/06) and is doing quite well at home under Mak's care. He's just a bit hot-tempered lately due to the fact that he is still having difficulty talking (due to the trachy) and also because he is hard of hearing now. His left ear was badly damaged (he removed a huge blood-clot in his ear all by himself by using a cotton bud~ Yuck~!) and we have to whisper loudly (Yeah I know, it's an oxymoron) to his right ear so that he can hear what we are talking about. Nevertheless, I am still grateful to Allah for his speedy recovery and he was able to return home before Ramadan approaches.
Ayah's b'day was on 21/09/06 but we celebrated on the 23/09/06. Me & hubby bought lots of cheng tng (Ayah's favourite dessert) and a blue baju melayu. Abang Ngah bought cakes and soup tulang (Sigh.. Sesungguhnya aku berpuasa hari ini~ Heehee) while Along contributed soft beancurd for our small party. Mak pulak masak Mee Sua.. Mmm yummy~~
* Note to oneself, must stop blogging about food during Ramadan *
As for the business that we've just started, initially, there was a lot of bad-vibes and negativity. Biasa lah.. Bila orang melayu nak bukak bisnes, ada jer yang menyebok dan suka memburuk2kan kaum mereka sendiri. But among all these flaks that we've received, we are very glad for the support given by our good friends, families and relatives. Hehehehe.. Thanks a lot you guys~
Ramadan is finally here. It's definitely different now from before I was married. Previously, I don't have to wake up earlier to prepare the food because everything was already laid out on the table when I wake up for Sahur. That is if I even bothered to wake up at all! Hahaha..
Now? Although it wasn't expected of me to help MIL in the kitchen (I am blessed with such a lovely MIL), but I still forced my butt out of the bed at 4am to help her. With me being half awake, I can only handle preparing the drinks (last night, the Milo was a bit diluted and this morning the tea was too sweet *chuckles*) while MIL was buzzing about in the kitchen, warming last night's meal. Me so useless, kan? Bleah~
Last Friday, while we were enjoying our meal at Kallang, I found a disturbing show on TV. So sad.. They marred Ramadan by having a concert at Kampong Glam. With women singing and dancing, I can only shake my head and let out a sigh. Even if it's just the opening of a new bazaar in Kampong Glam, why can't they show a more respectable concert? Wouldn't it be more berkat to show nasyid? Or Syarahan? Or invite our local Hafiz for Quran recital?
Ok lah.. That's all I can blog about today..
PS: Lagi sikit nak batal puasa this morning. A &^%@ Lexus driver almost caused us to collide onto another car just because he can't make up his mind whether he wants to enter the CTE or not. Arrghh.. Macam nak kena maki! Hubby floored the brake just in time and I can feel the ABS kicked in. Sigh.. Sabar Ayu sabar.. Sesungguhnya kau puasa hari ini..
