Christmas is over and now the focus is on Jessica's birthday. Nothing much to plan for or prepare, we will leave everything to Mcdonald's. We are holding a party for her at King albert's mac. I hope she will enjoy herself and have fun. I do agree that she has a good life. I must say she is blessed to be born in a family that could provide. i didnt have what she had, that i am very sure. By the age of 2, she went to Australia twice and 3rd time soon. Once to perth and the other to Sydney. Even William hasnt been to these 2 although he dont seem very interested as the shops close very early. Oh Thailand twice and countless times to Malaysia-Genting Highlands.
We had a Christmas party on the 26th and it was overwhelming. They were alot of people in the house and the house isnt big enough. haha. She received lots presents and she enjoys tearing the wrappers. I hope the birthday will go smoothly and her birthday cake from Patisseur wont be late like Bakerzin last yr- super late and the beehive looks more pink than yellow. Terrible.
We had quite a hard time to look for her cake this year and William wants a nice one. we couldve order it from various choices of cake shop. Patisseur need more than 2 weeks in advance to customise a constructed cake. So in the end we order a simple one that they ccan produce in such short term notice.

Log cake from Swensens

Games for kids

no time for mommy to get a snap cos most of the time she is the photographer

about 3 weeks ago i brought her to watch the princess n the frog. She sat 3/4 of the show. thats good enough

Sydney?

William asked me whether i want to go Sydney to visit my mom and sis. I think he knows that i do miss them and that is very sweet of him to be so thoughtful. It would be good to fly there but not sure would that be too much expenditure this few weeks. My xmas present, delicious meals.. Jessica's presents etc.. If i will to go Sydney, we will arrange for our maid to home and visit, since Jessica and I wont be around meaning there wont be much chores for her to do.

I need to find out on Jessica's Shicida school, cos we paid for the next term and i wont want to waste any classes in Shicida cos they are expensive. Last Saturday i went to one of Jessica's classmate place, cos he and his mom is leaving for China so we wont be seeing them. Maggie (1 of the parents) invited me to join their gathering at Coasta Del Sol. I had fun, so did Jessica. They are a bunch of fun loving parents, esp Fiona. She is so funny.

If we stop her class, i wont get to see them and that will be a waste . It is more fun to have ppl thhat you know in ur "daughter's" class. I better call the school again for more information and advise. Their lines are so busy. Good business, Big business.

SIBEI sianz.... they picked someone else instead. the job is off for me.... sianzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz......................................................................................................... this whole yr just isnt good for me. you wont believe it.... sianzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ah.. lesser layer also cannot.. nevermind la.. i ren ming le.

This hair dye tvc does have alot of problems. Now they wanted to layer my hair and my agency is afraid that, the layer might have my hair look fizzy esp after the hairdye when it is such a light color. So he suggested "very minimal" layer otherwise dont do this job. Prior to that he asked me whether i mind layering, i said ok, cos i seldom cut my hair and my hair is the very flat type. Keep kept asking me " are you sure, are u sure?" that frightens me a little. So i told him to decide for me as long as he thinks it is the best for me. So, i am at same point again. See whether the cilent side accept my terms and vice versa.
To reach that color effect, or even close to it, no need to bleach meh? can that be done? dont know got cheat me anot.

hmmm......
nothing much has happen these days and once again i am lazy to load pics. I am into the shopping mood. This xmas season makes me feel like spending compared to the last ones...

I went for a casting 2 weeks ago for a hair dye tvc. I asked for brown just in case i get picked. So i was shortlisted for it and agency gotta discuss the rates with me again and i accepted it. Until today i get to know the color. It is the one on the left. The other girl gotten the one on the right, Both of us preferred each other's color, but due to different hair styles, we cant exchange. They wanted my straight hair and her curly hair. So i accepted the terms on this beige.


This is something really different and ive never tried. mostly likely i have to dye it back to a darker color somehow, because most job prefers dark,(nautral) hair. Recently, ive been losing alot of hair, and this is making me feel so stressed. I dont want to end up being bald or very little hair. William always say i eat too salty. Cant help it, it is a bad habit, i know. Hopefully i can get a confirmation soon on this job and hopefully it is shown in spore, so i can see the final result. William sprained his feet yesterday at a football match w his west side friends, so i have to pick him up later and send him to a doc.

Just sent my mom to the airport. The plane will be taking off in about 10 mins time. 830pm. She is offered for a free upgrade to business class, which is a good deal esp for a 8 hours flight. When she walked into the customs, Jessica started to cry. Just before she walked in, i was explaining to her that Popo is taking a plane, flying to Sydney and we will fly there next time to see Korkor Owen and Jie jie Melanie. I think she understood the part where Popo is taking the plane without her and the rest of us, which explains why she cried so much and loudly. She was so sad, i could hear it through her cry. I became sad too, as if my mother would be away for 10 years. She was so so so sad......
i teared.
Popo was waving on her way in and im sure she felt sad to see Jessica cry too. She called up soon to tell me. My mom has been staying with us for a few nights so naturally Jessica became close to her too. Jessica must be wondering why Popo has been packing her bags. Im happy to see my mom getting excited and full of happiness. First of all, she loves that place and she can get to see her other daughter and grandchildren, esp Owen. So i am happy for her although i will miss her company. We see each other alot , very often. For now, i am the only one left in Singapore out of my initially family of 3. My mom, my sis and myself. To think about it, it isnt good that my sis has to be there, cos one of us has to be alone in somewhere. So Jie jie, please come back soon. Take it as, your kids need to come back for Singapore's education.
I hope i can get more jobs so i can have the $ to fly over soon , "when" the weather is cool too.

So sianzzz. everyone is moving to sydney to stay. My mom will be joining my sister for a long while. She is flying off this Sunday. Im happy for her that she wont be living alone like she is in Singapore. Cos i have my own place,  those who are married should roughly understand why she has to live alone. I felt bad at times when she comes over and gotta drive herself back home, but this isnt within my control cos my in laws are not staying w me and i cant make such request to William too mah. Maybe when she is older and i hope she will live till old age.
It is good and quite a relief for me that my sis can watch my mom's back. Very often i will worry she might meet accidents at home. A bad fall and all.. She is totally alone and i cant really afford her to have a maid, furthermore her place is so small that she dont really need a maid to clean up.
It isnt easy to live with my mom, she has her weird characte, she's like was our MOM and DAD since i was primary one and my sis secondary one. So in many ways, she wants to be in charge and im sure my husband couldnt stand it.
What i hope for now, is to be able to fly over soon to meet them and i definately want to bring Jessica along so she can see her cousins again. I love seeing them play and interact, even though she is the smaller one who might get bullied. Cant go in January cos it should be hot and it is Jessica's birthday and i wanna have a party for her, probably at KFC or Mcdonald's? havent decide on that yet.
I guess Feb or March should be good. Provided i dont get pregnant or etc. Her air ticket will be ex by then cos she's 2 then.
well.. mommy... you have fun and take good care of urself. Although i screamed at you alot cos u drove me mad, i dont mean it and whenever you are around i feel safe. EVEN till now.. HUGS
