pregnancy diary 2

I will be posting pregnancy diary again! because I am pregnant again!

This news didn't seem to be real to me until recently when I start to experience morning sickness again. I am here writing blog early in the morning because I couldn't slp anymore with a quezy tumbling feeling in my stomach.

We did plan to have our second kid soon, but this time is really a surprise. We did not expect it to happen as during my supposedly fertile period, we were both overseas: I was at Seoul, he at Hanoi. thanks to my irregular period cycle and unpredictable ovulation, we are having our second child now!

It is a mixed feeling now, as I was pregnant before and think I'm more experienced in preparing myself for this pregnancy, but I am not sure if i can cope with WL. Wl just turned 18mth, she seem to understand us sometimes, but it is impossible to make her listen to us all the time. she'll be more sensible in the later part of my pregnancy, I hope. now I only wish she wun ask me to carry her so often.

to seoul

This heavy rain is a bad omen?
it's hot and dry for the past few days, yet it's raining heavily the morning I have to walk to MRT station with a huge luggage. :(
why did I choose such flight timing that I see my dearest wl for two less days (plus day I return)? It takes lots of courage to go on this trip without my baby, why must the weather make it harder?
To make it worse,  when I grumbled about the weather to my friend the reply I got is: 'Oh. Well. It happens'
Yeah... things do happen, thanks for making it feel worse

Bought this loud yellow flowery dress online @lilypirates

When the dress arrive, I thought I must be crazy when I ordered this! 

This is what I call 'impulse buying online'. You'll click on something that look really nice, but it's not really what you'll usually wear.

It's spring/summer, so I thought something colorful, flowery and cheerful is cool. but this is somewhat too loud for my personality.. hope I can get used to this look...

Do you like my new look?

Hi all!

My blog has a new look after so many years!

Do you like its new look?

I was inspired by RQ as she recently started her blog http://socialmediabar.com/rachelpoh. Do support her and visit her blog!

How was I inspired by her?

(A bit of background) I told her about my blog when I wanted to post our pictures in the post about our holiday in Taiwan in 2010. Then recently one day, out of the blue she asked me if I'm still writing my blog.. (grumbles: Why am I not surprised that she did not read my blog at all after so long?? So much for being my best friend.... ) Anyways, she told me she's interested to be a blogger, she even researched on how to be a good blogger. And finally after almost a month, her blog is finally up! She told me she spent half a day before her first post is up to set the layout of her blog. Then I realised I did not change my blog's look ever since I started... time for a new look!

The most dreaded place

我们一家人都很讨厌那个地方。因为在那里我们失去最亲爱的人。这是一种无法抹灭的阴影。对那个地方，至今我还有一点怨恨和不信。

那个地方就是医院。

最近妈妈生病了。身为我们一家人的医生，她生病了让我有点措手不及。听到她必需住院我彻夜难眠，一大早就赶去医院。当年因为以为阿嬤的‘只是简单的手术‘把工作放在第一位没有陪着她就看不到她，从此就没机会和她说说话，诸如此类的遗憾仍历历在目。我带着焦虑的心情去那可怕的地方。见到妈妈时她笑容满面，一副‘我很好‘的样子。本来怕她一个人会闷，想要给她我的iPad,她却说‘我明天就出院了，不需要！‘。那时她的肝和胆都还在发炎，她就已经坚信自己很快就会好。她是如此的乐观积极，我的焦虑似乎都是多余的。

今天妈妈要动手术。手术之前和她一起念了心经。是的，她很快就会好的。

琬玲到底像谁？

琬玲到底像谁？

你觉得呢？

像向岭？

还是像我？

这是谜一样无解的问题。
x的朋友就会说“像妈妈吧？"
我的朋友就会说“像爸爸吧？”
总之都不会说“像你”
以前我们都会为这烦恼。爸爸妈妈都会希望自己的孩子像自己吧。。。可是现在我觉悟了，琬玲是个个体：虽然是我十月怀胎，虽然是我们爱的结晶，但是琬玲就是琬玲，独一无二的琬玲，世上仅有的琬玲。她有她的个性，有她自己的喜好。今天有人问我，琬玲是否是我期待的样子\个性？我当下无法回答，我没有想太多，只是希望她会是个个性好，漂亮开心的好孩子。琬玲，你会成为这样的好孩子吗？

Steak!

It's steak again. and yeah!!  it's a success once again!

Key to cook nice medium done steak:

1) meat has to be at room temperature before u cook.

2) different steak has different thickness, cook one side abt 1-2min for normal thickness, check regularly till one side is slightly brown

3) turn over.cook the other side for shorter time abt 1min. check regularly as well

4) turn off the fire and let the meat rest for another min or so.... and ta da... u can enjoy the medium done steak..

I like to eat steak with lots of vegetables below.. healthy and the vegetables can 'absorb' the meat juice...
