Yes! I made it to my 4th round at the stadium, non stop this evening! at Lane 8 some more! Yeah... I hope to make it more!
I had a great time with my family this evening... We walked to the stadium for our run instead of a ride... After the run we went for dinner at a coffee shop and we strolled back home. I've always like this sort of take our time moments... It's so nice to have my loved ones around. It made me forget about the troubles I have in my mind at the moment. hmm...

You Never Know until You Try...
I bought a dress from the boutique whose name starts with 'E' last week as a present for myself. I thought I can wear it on Saturday but when I put it on it was too small. Oops! Did I put on some weight after only a few days or did I get the wrong size. I was rather upset as I have already cut the tag, ironed it and receipt destroyed too. I have the feeling that there is no way I can get it exchanged.
Today, I was uncertain to try to bring back the dress for an exchange... I braced up myself and told myself 'No harm trying... What is the worst? Come home with the original loh, maybe I can lost some weight then put it on again. SO I put it back to the bag and went back to the boutique.
I went to the boutique, looked for the sales guy whom attended to me. I told him the whole story about buying, cut the tag, destroyed the receipt and ironed it but it is too small! He spoke to the manager and she agreed. I am so touched... I went to the lady and thanked her as I told her I knew that the norm is no exchange can be done without receipt and with the tag cut. Oh... I am so happy... Now I can wear the dress and not chuck it into a corner of my wardrobe! Yippee... And I am rather grateful to the boutique manager for allowing the exchange!

Mrs Lee...
This morning I have been addressed as 'Mrs Lee' or 'Teacher' by a group of Sec 1 students. It is an exciting assignment for me to be a assistant trainer for a IT training agency. I woke up at 530am as I need to be in school by 730 am. A walk to the MRT station was great because the weather was good and it was a very refreshing moment for me...
I have been a trainer to adults in my ex-company but never Sec students. It is a fresh encounter to me and infact I enjoyed the session with them though there are a few mischevious kids. To me it's either they already knew the software or they are not bothered with a non-exam subject. I am glad it is a non-exam subject too because the pressure will be lesser on us the trainers. ;)
Tomorrow will be my last day of assignment and I will end with a lunch with my ex-colleagues again like today. Yippee...

My Birthday...
I spent my birthday very differently this year. I didn't get to be with my kids or husband for any celebration nor was there any. I didn't feel upset, disappointed or unhappy... Instead I am happy on how I spent that special day...
Early morning, hc and I sent the kids to school (normally I would be at home) then hc and I went for breakfast. I told the kids, yes that day is mummy's birthday but mummy has a class at night and thus not able to be with them. No whining from anyone, they accept the fact. Phew...
After breackfast I went to visit my mum. Though I didn't manage to get her to go out of her comfort zone to move around, I can see she is very happy to see me. So I hang around with her for the rest of the morning... Wanted to give her a treat for lunch, she is not willing to move out at all. Well, at least I spent a morning with her.
In the afternoon, I headed for Seng Kang to get myself ready for our last session of a parenting course for the night. The class is suppose to prepare some food for a farewell potluck for the session. Spent my time with TLian and her 2 kids and I can see the kids love to play with me... So funny right, on my birthday I didn't get to spend time with my kids but a friend's but no big deal! The important thing is everyone is happy. I'm surprised I didn't sulk but I enjoy every moment of my time with TLian and family.
After dinner is the class... Wow... I didn't realise I am very tired... till I wasn't able to think properly in class and not able to answer simple questions and the usual thing like how do I feel after the course to the teacher... I simply said TLian has answered for me. I can see my friend is shocked for me to say that... Well, the night stretched and after lesson we stayed behind and chatted with the teacher... ha, ha... still claimed I am tired right... The class usually ends at 9 pm but we only left near 10 that night!
This is not the end... We went Jalan Kayu for my favourite prata... We went there but I didn't had any food because I am seriously over stretched... I have no appetite but I am just enjoying my drink of coconut and the company of HC, RL and TLian. I have always enjoy their company since I know them!
Near 12 am then we really got going... Ha, ha... I told HC please give me some rest time till tomorrow morning... I really needed a good rest. So yes! I am given the privilege to rest since we got home till the next day morning! HC got the kids ready to school without much of my help and I woke up feeling refreshed after everyone has left home.... Thank you 老公。。。 And when I got home, HC gave me a surprise with a tiny cake... I thought no cake for me this year! ha ha... still, my HC remembers... (no pix of the tiny cake bcos I am too tired to give it a shot!)
Though this birthday there is no special way of celebrating it but I enjoy every moment of it... Even though I am already very very very exhausted by evening...

The Revival of My Blog...
It has been a year since I last posted on this Blog of mine and I was too caught up with the happenings in my Life that I could not continue updating it. I've decied to 'pen' it down here and move on... There is a saying "Time heals..." My Struggles:
1) New role as a SAHM
2) Learn to cook proper meals
3) Time Management
4) My Daddy fell real ill
5) The Lost of My Beloved Daddy
6) Went through a minor procedure
7) Time spent liked a single mum due to hubby has lots of travels, luckily I can drive!
8) Change the kids from full day to 3/4 and half day pgms to my 2 little ones.
9) I've a new faith!
After looking at above list, it doesn't seem to be a long one but when I recalled the details of them... Wow... They can be overwhelming but I am proud to say I have conquered the obstacles in the list. Yeah! Whenever something 'big' shows up in my life I told myself 'Everything is gonna be ok....' That was what I was thinking when I was pushed into the surgery room without seeing my hubby and my 2 little ones before I got knock out. (They didn't make it in time to visit me as the procedure needed to be done as soon then).
