Fishy Dinner

Oh, I almost forgot to blog about this funny tale which happened yesterday.

Hubby sent me an email yesterday, showing me what dinner mum was going to prepare for yesterday night. It was a picture of a fish, which he has also measured, and it was about 40cm long, including the head and tail. He also told me not to eat too full after 3pm, and save some stomach space for dinner, in anticipation of the huge fish, and 6-8 prawns that were lying beneath the fish..

I laughed so hard when I read that email, because it sounded hilarious, and then when I realised how big the fish actually is (I tried estimating 40cm), then I wasn't laughing as loudly anymore.. I shared hubby's concern, and was wondering how mum was going to cook the fish. If it was swarmed with lemongrass you can be sure that I will not eat it at all.. Somehow I just don't fancy the taste of lemongrass..

Anyway, in the end, to our relief, mum only fried half of the fish, even then we couldn't finish it.. mum was keeping the second half for another dinner session. Erm... I hope she don't keep it too long..

Are you curious about the size of fish, and what photo hubby sent me? Of course I won't let you down, it is attached right below...

The Big Fish...

Feeling bored at work..

Oh well, I wanted to share a joke with all today, but for some reason I can't cut and paste the joke so can't share the joke with you..

Last Friday when I was with Pyramid with my colleagues, 2 Chinese girls (students from either China or Taiwan) approached us and told us that they are doing a project. They are supposed to give a present to a stranger, and record the receiver's reactions, and asked if we were willing to accept the gift. My first impression was that I shouldn't because I was wary of the authenticity of their intention. So we actually rejected their offer, I felt a little bad about it but I would still reject the offer if I have to choose again.

Big day next week... today is officially my last working day before I go off, and start on my maternity leave.. time flies huh...?

Watch out for photos of my baby next week...!

Looks like C-sec it is..

Ha.. are you one of those who came to my blog recently to follow up on whether I am going for c-sec?

Well, went to the gynae on Saturday, and the verdict is: Baby has not turned... so looks like we have to accept the fact that I will be going for C-sec. Date: the week of 19th October. Doctor will see me one more time on 19th Oct to determine the exact date that he wants to perform the surgery.

Although we have almost resigned ourselves to the fate of c-sec, we are going for second opinoin next week. Just to be sure...

Things is certainly not turning out the way we imagined it to be..

Watch this space...

C-sec verdict to be out soon...

2 days... 2 days is all my baby have to turn.. otherwise doctor will discuss with me the procedure of having a C-sec this Saturday..

After learning a bit more about c-sec, I am even more determined not to go for c-sec, cos of the post natal recovery and also because of the epidural which will be inserted for the surgery.

So, turn baby turn....!

Sleepless Nights

3 consecutive sleepless nights can make anyone depress and cranky.. what more when you are already depressed to start with.. plus, my sorethroat is killing me. It has been getting worse since 2-3 days ago, and I think I developed an ulcer too. I guess lacking of sleep does do great harm to your body.. but what to do? Body is willing to sleep, but mind is not..

I just realised that since tomorrow is mid autumn festival, today is my lunar birthday. Been so depressed that I don't even remember that anymore.. and it is no longer special and as important. Not like anyone will remember.. a week ago things were different, and now... sigh..

Happy Birthday to me...!
