Before I do this tag, I wanna tell the whole world that I will be going to
Australia this coming August!! :)YEAH!! Like so excited, I don’t know why I like to go there even though I was studying there for about 5 years before. This time will be the 2nd time I go back after I graduated but it’s for a purpose also la cos we are going to witness Piggyhoo’s (my niece who was one my cubit & bite victims) graduation!

Went to Matta Fair today and the crowd….aitelyu (I tell you)..was like people mountain people sea (translated from Cantonese, meaning very crowded) ok! We even saw a bozo pick-pocketed one guy and ran away! Everyone was kinda distracted cos the theif was digging into the victim’s socks while he took his wallet! Clever eh? Got to be more careful when we go to such crowded places!

We were walking around comparing the fares and packages available and decided to fly with
Malaysia Airlines…support our very own la…not that I’m patriotic, it was the cheapest woi! The fare was about RM300+ cheaper per pax than normal fair so I guess it’s worth going to Matta Fair but the catch was having to pay in full today lor….

Ok back to the tag…Kenny so fast wanna tag me back…..wah but this one quite fun also wor! Let me think, stranded on island, aiya in the movies make it like so shiok liddat…in reality, I think sei chor lor! (die-ded leow)

Who would I like to be stranded on an island ah…actually preferably with my Korean hunks but I can’t tag them wor…so here goes…

The Reflector so he can take many many nice pictures of me before I get fried by the sun and die-ded of skin cancer..

Sasha so we can 8 (gossip) till the cows come home while sipping coconut water…

Angeleyes cos she very good with cooking ma…so we don’t die as hungry ghosts la…

Mott cos she’s very clever one, maybe can think of a way to get us out from the island leh…

Sorry I can only think of these four la…and I feel sorry these people are chosen but I can’t help it lor…who asked that Kenny to tag me!

Before I do this new tag, I got to rant about what happened this morning.

This morning already bad mood from 2 noisy and disobedient kids, then had a meeting at a customer’s place, which was so unnecessary and I reckon could have been avoided but still have to be there type leh..?? Get it? Well, I usually would just “tumpang” (borrow) somebody’s parking lot when I’m at that place as the visitor parking is like 4 levels down the basement and is very dark and scary one…so I do not like to park in the basement.

So, I told my maid to keep an eye on the car but of course she didn’t lor…so the owner of the parking lot was honking for I gather just over a minute only la…then I rushed out and apologised but he was so angry, he got out of his car and came towards me with his index finger pointing at me…

(Above picture was acted out by my staff and myself)

He repeated the “ARE YOU STUPID” so many times until I have to answer leow…

Me-I’m not stupid ok..

He-Then why did you park here?

Me-I’m sorry..

He-No! Are you stupid? No! Clamp the car! Clamp the car!

Aiya, I already said sorry and was like running towards my car leow with 2 kids with me summore, why must be so garang (fierce) one? Maybe if I was without kids and wearing a tight fitting dress and the neckline so low that my boobs are almost showing, he will not be so fierce?

Sigh..back to the tag as Shannon wants to know how weird I am… here goes…..

6 cronic weird things about myself

1. I have a very weird habit which my kids have inherited similar traits too, i.e. rubbing the puffed up edges of my pillow..emmm very shiok feeling one…no belif..u try la.Kieran will rub the 4 sharp corners of the pillow andKylie will play with pink pig bolster..kakakaka…
2. I do not like to have “tau geh” (bean sprouts) mixed in my fried noodles/kuey teow or noodle soup but I can eat tau geh on its own..I will always remind the hawker a million times not to put the tau geh inside and if he forgets, I will pick them out one by one..cursing at the same time!
3. I like peeling the dead skin on my toes despite me going to pedicures….still like to peel peel peel…yucks…this is more like bad habit…
4. I am obsessed with Tupperwares, meaning everything must be kept in Tupperwares, if possible the original Tupperware if ran out, then imitasi (imitation/any other containers) ones will do lor…
5. I like to pinch/bite chubby kids but unfortunately my kids are not chubby at all… (this one I inherited from my mom as I have my cousins to testify for this..hehehehe)
6. I like to smell all sorts of things, ie from my kids’ heads to paper etc etc….except for things which I know it’s stinko la! Stupid or wat??

Phew! Doned! Who to tag?

Etc Mummy for tagging me first….kakakakakka…

Lovely Mummy for being so happy after kena tag-ded..

Jessie for being so sweet..I’m sure there’s nothing weird about her..

Oscar Mummy cos weekend is here so I think she can do her homework then…instead of shopping in Kepong or Taman Equine or some other weird faraway shopping complex…

aiya enuf la…

Wah I think this must be the tag season cos everybody is busy doing tags here and there. I just came back from town as I have a few deliveries and some customers to see but miraculously I managed to come back before the rush hour despite the heavy downpour.

So come back of course fast fast  blog la…sekali kena tagged again. Ok this one is going to be quite embarassing….errr..Etc Mom wants to know what’s in my bag wor…so here goes…

Scary leh..there are bags within my bag leh! There’s my sling bag, tissue bag, carmera, various documents and receipts here and there…wah got to dig for gold in order to find my stuff! Kakakakakaka….It was worse before I came back to the office cos I offloaded a lot of stuff leow!  It’s a nightmare when Kylie decides to raid my bag!

Who to tag? I’ve just tagged some people leh….and I’ve noticed quite a number of people have been tagged with this tag leow..so no need la!

Yeah I’ve been complaining about Kieran a lot, but he’s still my beloved son so I still spoil him with gifts here and there, and just before the CNY I bought him the mini lion head. He was having so much fun with it, and each time he appears in front of ApOh, she will give him an extra ang pow!

Visiting at Mom To 2 Angels

We didn’t do much visiting this year as we were staying so far away from everybody! kakakaka….but we did manage to visit my good ol’ pal. We learnt something new there too! Here’s a photo of Kylie ransacking Elisa’s toys…

And here’s a new method on how to teach the kids to count…

What? Teach the kids to gamble at such a young age? No lar…play Black Jack is not only for gambling wey…can learn to count wor! What a great idea! Thanks to ML! But hor when Kieran was playing he kept getting Black Jacks and double aces..shiaks…thought can make him practise counting pulak!

“If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days you would have produced enough sound energy to heat up a cup of coffee.”

(hardly worth it)

Got the above phrase from an email. I guess so that shouting is really not worth it but I don’t know why I just can’t control myself leh. It’s like automatic when I see my son, maid or hubby!

Anyway, when Kieran came home from school..

K-Hi mommy

Daddy-Your son wished you la

Me-Huh? didn’t hear wor

K-Mommy!

Me-Hi darling..

I was busy preparing dinner and after dinner, I was resting and daddy showered Kylie. During that time, Kieran acted up again whining about drinking the packet soya bean. I didn’t allow as he started his coughing again. He went up to the shower and kept kicking the door and banging here and there and that totally annoyed an already very tired and grumpy daddy who was showering a jumpy and wiggly lil girl! So I heard daddy suddenly shouting so loud and then came a wailing cry from Kieran.

Yes, daddy whacked him real hard this time and with his Little Tikes garden tool! It was very hard plastic if you know Little Tikes toys. Kieran was crying so hard and I gather it was really a hard blow, knowing daddy’s strength. It always pierces my heart each to see daddy whack him because I know it’s really hard and painful. I usually try to stop daddy from further hurting him. But but he never learns…weyo??

I told daddy not to overeact as this happens to me every morning! Yes, we didn’t allow him to sleep with us so he went downstairs to watch tv with me till he fell asleep on the chair. (running from reality, meaning, he would rather be asleep to be put in his own room to sleep!)

I am totally at wits with regards to Kieran. People say I’m too hard on him, if I’m not hard on him now, what will be the consequences if I’m not hard on him? I see a lot of youths nowadays I oso pening kepala leow (headache) cos firstly their attire already quite outrageous, then they hold branded and the latest mobile phones, and the way they behave really disgusts me lor. I really cannot allow my Kieran to become liddat!

But no matter how much I punish him and spank him, he doesn’t seem to understand and comprehend and keeps repeating the mistakes, something like my maid leh…ayooooooo….in fact, I’ve used my maid as an example to warn him, like if he doesn’t obey me he will end up like my maid, doing hard labour la and get scolding from people like me everyday! Then I will ask him if he wanted that and he will quickly answer no wor!

Like yesterday, I asked him how is he going to spend his RM1.

Me-Are u going to bus sweets?

K-No..

Me-How about cold drinks?

K-No..

Me-Then what are you going to buy?

K-RULER!

Me-What for? You already have rulers and I have a lot in the office (supplier gave ma…) Don’t buy ah!

K-ok…(in a very small voice)

Then when I saw him later that night, he waved the new ruler into my face..

K-Look mummy, RULER!!!

Me-(fuming mad) Why u disobeyed mummy? I told u not to buy, but why did u still buy it?

K-(looked so guilty with face down)

Me-That’s it, u deliberately disobey me all the time, meaning u don’t like to listen to mummy, do don’t call me mummy anymore. (stormed off)

I was so angry that I didn’t think and started throwing out his mattress and pillow and shooed him out of my room. I made him sleep in his own room but we are not able to turn on the aircon as I have not installed the door yet! So he slept with the fan only.

This morning…

Me-So, do you still love mummy?

K-…….(silent)

I asked a few times but he still didn’t reply….

K-You didn’t let me sleep in your room…

Me-So is that why you don’t love me now?

K-…………(silent again)

Sigh……So punishing him has made him stop loving me, but I love him so much that I have to punish him when I find that he’s gone out of line…how do I make him understand that punishment doesn’t mean that I don’t love him? Maybe I was too harsh when I asked him to call me mummy again….

I actually have something to write about a friend following Tracy’s post about her “friend”. But it’s kinda long winded which I didn’t have time to finish so I will just do this tag first. Alas, a more meaningful tag! I really don’t mind doing this one. Thanks to King’s Wife.

5 wishes by a parent for their children.

1. That they will love God first and love others.

2.That they will try to maintain the traditions of our Chinese practice, e.g.love and respect for elders, observe the traditions of Chinese New Year, and many other celebrations (yes this is one very kolot traditional Amah)

3. That they will aspire to be useful human beings and contribute good values back to society, doesn’t have to be doctor or lawyer or any professional, as long as they are become financially independent with a descent job.

4. That they will obey me and live by my rules at least for the first 18 years of their life, then only tell me they have their own thinking!
5. That they will not come back with trouble with the law or give me any unnecessary stress like, “Mom, I got her pregnant/I”m pregnant!” etc!!

Actually the list cannot end at 5 but better la, if not cannot finish this leh! So since I find this tag so meaningful, I shall tag the following mummies!

Allyfeel

Mom to 2 Angels

Nomadic Mom

Julian (the last time I tagged u  but u didn’t do it wor…so sad)

Shannon

Mott

Oopss exceeded 5..nvm la…actually feel like tagging more but leave some for the above mummies to tag la!

Ok..The End…
