Couldn't believe it!


After almost 5 months from delivery til now, i couldnt believe that i could fit just nice into this dress!

Was window shopping one of the Tuesdays and saw this dress that i like. The first thing that came to my mind after i took it out from the rack was "Wah, only 1 size, i confirm cant fit in one lah". But nonetheless, i still give it a try. In the end, i could fit in wor! Really cant believe it!

Ppl ask me what did i do to slim down. Actually, nothing much, other than cutting down carbo significantly during my confinement period as well as the month after that. I did walk 20 storeys of stairs for a start shortly after i resume work, but slowly died down as I was OT-ing most of the days...

Really thank God that i am now even lighter than my pre-pregnancy wgt! (err, acty i put on quite a lot just before pregnancy la.. )

I arent any model so its definitely not as nice as how these 2 pic look, but i am happy that i look presentable. Thank God, really!

Almost 1 month!

Gosh, its almost a mth since my last entry here.

Have been really busy at work recently. Unhappy, stressed, anxious, tired, etc.

Not trying to be negative, esp that i have God, but these, unfortunately, are my exact feelings for the past 1 mth. Going into office feeling so stressed, and easily anxious abt work. Even during my Bintan trip and normal weekends, i keep thinking abt work and how never-ending they are.

In the end, i decided to resign. Handed THE letter to my manager on Wednesday. He kinda expected it. Well, afterall i broke down a number of times in my cubicle as well as once in front of him. :I He defended a little and explained that he really did tried his best to bring in the additional headcount, but its beyond his control. After hearing that, i know in my heart that there is nothing more he can do. This position will continue to be THIS heavy.

Just watched Iron Man 2 on thursday and what Virginia Pebble said right after Tony saved her is exactly what I have been feeling all these while, "My body literally cannot take the stress anymore, I quit, I resign!"

My hair was dropping more than usual, having gastric attacks due to stress (i guess) during office hours are not uncommon. Working for more than 10hours with only less than 20mins of lunch was also nothing new in this dept.

Yup...

But, i dont want such lifestyle. I want a work life balance lifestyle. Afterall balance is the key to LIFE.

Hopefully after this, i will be able to find a new job that has work life balance. Not only pays well, but bring satisfaction.

So, my next post......?

Soon! :)

First Love (to God)

My Highest Call, My greatest cause
Is loving You
Your perfect love, has won my heart
Now I am Yours.

Your sacrifice, demands my life
And I will live to honor
Your holy name, the price You paid

So I sing

You're my first love, You're my true love
You're my reason, You are why I breathe
I will give You my devotion
All of me, all of me

You chose the cross, You chose me
Surrender Your life, You chose me
Though I did not deserve, You chose me

So I choose to love, just as You chose me
I put you first, as You first loved me
Ill treasure Your grace as you died for me



Thank You Jesus, for choosing the cross, now its our turn.

Our 1095 days...

My last post was a pretty negative one...enuff of such atmosphere for it can be contagious! haha..
Well, hubby and i celebrated our 1095th day together as hubby & wifey 2 days ago...

Went to a Seafood Restaurant at EC for THE occasion. They have lunch buffet everyday. Mon - Fri is less then 30bucks per person. Think its EX?? Lemme tell you what they have.

Sharks Fins (there is real and quite a size fins inside this bowl below wor..) - limited to 1 serving per person.




Next up, we have abalone (1 small one for each person, also limited to 1 serving per person.)



And of cos not forgetting cray fish, many kinds of fish (oh, their fish is 1 WHOLE fish, even tho its for only 2 pax!), scallops, soft shells, mussels, prawns & many more! i think pretty 'hua-suan' la. :)
Anw, that was on the actual day... it was good, but what really touched me was the 1094th day.
I was working (as usual) and some of you know that i just got transferred to a new dept so there are loads of work to do... As i was feeling a little stress up, he pin me and ask if i would like to have sth to brighten up my day... Of cos i said yes...
He replied, telling me to go to my hp, under video section and play a video with the num "1234" behind the file. I thought he had secretly recorded my sleeping pose or even my snoring sound! But when i open up the file and pressed played..................................................(you can see the video clip at the end of this post. :) )
As i watched the video in my workstation, i just teared and teared and teared... he got me this time round... he did a video of the both of us together since courting days! Apparently, he waited until i slept, before he started to make this video clip... he did it until 2 am... i was SO touched!
Just when i thought thats all, within 2hrs, another surprise came!
I received a call from my receptionist to go down becos there was a bouquet of flowers for me..
I went down and the delivery uncle was there with this bouquet of flowers, wrapped in purplish-pink wrapper!
I was soooooo in shock!
My flowers... i soooooo love it! :)


On our first yr of marriage, he accidentally 'threw away' his wedding band, and for almost 3 yrs, we didnt wear any... so this yr, i decided to get a pair of wedding bands for ourselves again. (he better not lose it again!) :)

To dear : I just want to say that you have earned yourself so much thruout our 7 yrs of journey together. You have earned my respect, my admiration, my love. From only 30 marks, to 70 and now, 80 marks.. Even as we crossed our 3rd yr as hubby & wifey, there will definitely be soooo much more for both of us to learned and explore abt each other, and i am ready for that! Thank you so much for making the effort and i am really VERY VERY touched! Many more yrs ahead!

It is "in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, in good times or bad times..."
This, it will always be.
I LOVE YOU.....


The video he did for me... :)
