宝贝的成长纪录（一）

一直都想帮宝贝写下成长日记，却没有付诸于行动。只是空想而没有行动，往往都会造成一事无成。怪也怪自己鸡婆的东西太多，导致时间都不够用。读到一本书说人长大后会把3岁前的记忆收藏在不知哪个角落，让我有了要写下这篇文的推动力。希望宝贝长大后，我还能讲“想当年”的事给他听。

时间过得太快了，转眼间宝贝都已经18个月了。妈妈心里很矛盾，一方面希望他快高长大，一方面舍不得他那么快长大。

3月初，宝贝17個月是第一次出国到新加坡游玩。 

他像超会吸水的大海绵，什么东西都学得很快，也记得很牢，常常让妈妈很惊讶。念过的绘本，唱过的儿歌，他都记得。

很乐于助人，喜欢帮忙拿扫把扫地，每天早上都向kakak借扫把。

喜欢与昆虫（蝴蝶，蚂蚁，甲虫，千足虫）玩。

喜欢玩水，却不怎么爱洗澡。

会念(zero),(one),two,three,four,(five),six,(seven),eight,nine,ten。括号里的不会。虽然妈妈并不想他那么快会这些东西（妈妈偏向华德福）。

会用汤匙加另一只手辅助把食物放进嘴巴里。

很有主见，会尽量沟通他的需要。

妈妈开始帮他postcrossing，希望帮他收藏全国各地的明信片。

开始玩crayon rock，有了自己的第一个作品。

和妈妈手牵手散步（超温馨的事）。

会尽量把玩过的东西收拾起来，放回原处。

尊重

尊重。
这两个字大家应该都懂，可是真正做到又有几个。
不只是人应该互相尊重，一草一木也有被别人尊重的权利。
小孩虽然小，他也应该被尊重。这样他才会学习到怎样尊重别人。农历新年期间，见到的长辈比平常多很多，有些甚至都不常见到。可是长辈们呢，见到小孩都会争着要抱。小孩对于不熟悉的人当然会产生防范之心，不随便让人抱，这是人之常情嘛！大人们总是会用各种方式希望博得一抱，包括哄骗或强硬抱走再作打算。小孩若一时来不及反应就被抱走，发觉后嚷着要妈妈也不被理会。小孩应该尊重大人，这是天底下被认为非常理所当然的事，但小孩就不应该被尊重吗？

从别的妈妈身上吸取经验

今天在公园看见一位妈妈大声斥骂孩子。虽然是出于为了孩子的安全，可是原本兴高采烈的孩子被吓着了，而且妈妈也变得很丑陋。心里暗暗告诉自己千万不样那样。

注册第三周年

不知不觉已经嫁为人妇三年。三年说长不长，说短不短，谢谢先生一直以来的陪伴，接纳，忍受与支持。Da，祝你三周年快乐！

15个月

真的是光阴似箭，宝贝已经15个月大了！目前正在牙牙学语，会的东西也不少，走路也挺稳定。之前的日子也忘了是怎么挨过的，只知道能够陪着宝贝长大真好。
终于买下了书橱，原本店家说缺货，最早也要下个星期才有货。先生在傍晚接到店家的电话说今天就能送货，＂意外惊喜＂一下。

第一次

今天的早餐很大工程，第一次做干粿条，材料都拿捏不到，全程用了一个小时半。而宝贝的是粿条汤。先生说味道还好，就是粿条煮太久变得软绵绵的。下次再努力！

知足常乐

今天虽然是周末，可是也很忙碌，东奔西跑的，而且也发生了一些些不愉快的事。
今天向先生发了一些牢骚，后来想想我现在的生活还过得去，拥有着希望拥有的东西，身边的人也健康快乐，应该惜福 ！
Da, 对不起，辛苦你了。谢谢你，我爱你！

太多事情要做，太少时间

宝贝在去年冬至前夕因为热性痉挛(febrile fits)进院了。本来不好的事情过了就让它过去，但昨天受到了医院寄来的账单，医药费真得让我惊讶，尤其是验血的费用，医生的consultation fees及药物的费用。
回到主题吧！最近堆积了很多要做的事情，可是却欠缺时间去做，真希望宝贝睡后我会拥有双倍多余的时间，双倍就好。
以下就是想到要办的事，没想到的。。。就先别管了。
-要看完蔡礼旭老师演讲的“细讲弟子规” ，这非常重要！
-要用透明书皮包好全部的绘本。绘本与日俱增，可是我却迟迟未开工。
-要把宝贝的农历新年要穿的裤子改短些。这个在农历新年前一定要完成，一定要安排时间。
-要想向新的菜色，要绑住先生的胃。
-要浏览看看网络中妈妈们提议的，有什么宝贝可以玩的东西，还要DIY。
-之前买下的手缝小熊和小兔还未完成。
-照片还未装进相册。
-买下好多书还没看。

喜欢今天的天气

今天一整天都是天阴阴的，吹着冷风，我喜欢这样的天气。

宝贝不肯吃早餐，也许是他吃面包吃腻了。再加上早上的时间紧逼，也不知要弄别的什么早餐给他。这让我很困惑，因为我一直认为早餐是一天里最重要的一餐，至少都要吃一点，就切了梨子给他。可是还得伤脑筋想想可以给他弄些什么早餐。

经过昨天的事件一，今天我没让宝贝早睡觉，先抹地，让他玩玩。这个计划不那么理想，因为他一直缠着要我读故事书给他听，得再想别的办法。

看来有很多东西需要想，脑袋却懒洋洋的。就暂时不要想，一切顺其自然，船到桥头自然直。只是＂暂时＂。。。

今天是坏妈妈

今天是充满愧疚的一天，该记录下来给自己警惕一下，下次不要再犯了。
假期过完了，先生也上班去了。
事件一：早上要让宝贝睡觉，结果过了一小时多他都还未入睡。地还没抹，宝贝的食物也还没煮，心里开始着急了。于是控制不住骂了他，把他弄哭了，结果自己也不好受。过后想想他可能不想睡，自己偏偏在逼他，真的是一个很糟糕的妈妈。
事件二：他试着要爬到我的身上让我抱他。爬的途中在我的大腿咬了一口，我就在他的屁股打了两下，结果又把他弄哭了。这并不是我要的教育方法，而且也没必要那么大反应。
我觉得觉得我需要检讨，因为我并没把事情处理好，身为大人不能把坏情绪控制好，还把宝贝一再弄哭。真的不要再犯了，再犯就要让先生打屁股！

2013的第一天

今天是2013的第一天，希望在新的一年里一切都能称心如意，身边的人每天幸福满满，宝贝健康快乐。也暗自为自己列出该改正的事情，那包括改掉自己很糟糕的坏脾气及控制自己的坏情绪，要时时有感恩的心，要爱身边的人多一些。

今天也一如往常的过日子。去了一趟附近的家具店，想要买架书橱在家设立阅读角落给孩子。看中了一架， 可是还想货比三家，所以没立刻买下。我们在家具店附近的饮食中心买了粿条汤，味道还蛮不错。我还连汤也喝光了。晚餐和家人们一起吃，原本的目的地今天没营业，于是去了Sunway Tunas。这家店的食物没那么理想，点下的鱼料理还有腥味。可是不要紧啦，能和家人们一起用餐是一件幸福的事。

最遗憾的是跟先生为了小事闹了一下，希望以后都不要这样。

I feel bad...

Again I have not updated the blog for a while. I feel bad. And now she's mad at me for forgetting our delayed anniversary dinner and it made her felt that I am neglecting her. I'm sorry dear...

This is the year of the Ox. For us, it is said to be a very bad year. We've been visiting temples and praying a lot, hoping for the best, hoping to get by this year unscathed. We're affected by the recent economic downturn as well, with the threat of retrenchment and pay cuts looming and increased responsibilities. In times like these, it is hard to find a way to effectively cheer her up with her work being so "upsetting". I hope that something good comes along and will brighten our days ahead.

We've had lots of outings too, mainly trying to get drunk with friends, and failed. Heh. We're looking for more ways to enjoy ourselves and forget about life's worries.

New Year Resolutions & Wishes

Resolutions
1. Save many many money
2. Be strong and bully people instead of being bullied
3. Spend more time with family and friends
4. Get rid of the "F" word
5. Be more patient

Wishes
1. Everyone in the family healthy and happy
2. Da da loves me more more
3. Go travel

Finally a quick update...

It's been months since our last post. Lots have happened, none bad, thankfully. We've celebrated her birthday, went on road trips, have some of our ups and downs, but all is well. I need to seriously consider our future and choose the right path to take so that she can be happy from now on. Maybe will post some pictures taken recently on our trips and celebrations.

Worried...

Recently She's under a lot of work stress. and I mean A LOT! She's also having trouble sleeping at night. Any slight movement from me might wake her up and cause her to lose her sleep. I'm really worried about her. The recent escape to Pangkor Island wasn't enough for us because basically.. Pangkor is way under-developed and under-maintained. In addition it was sort of a treasure hunt trip organized by our company therefore there isn't much rest on the way there either. Will have to take her on another nice getaway to refresh her.

Life sucks

I am the type of person who like freedom and flexibility, do whatever I like whenever I like. But I need to work to earn for a living. After my diploma, my working style was finished work at 5pm, had the computer switched off and headed home. I used to bring home some paper works (when being struck by the feeling of guilty) but never attempted to stress myself.

But due to a momentary lapse of concentration when looking for new employment after my bachelor courses, I accepted a job that forced me to take work home, agree to work late and worry about the business, which I am not happy with at all. Undeniable the benefits offered are good and I met my potential life partner here. Nevertheless, I have been very cranky till I can’t bear the crankiness myself. The culture here is “never ever think of taking up any responsibilities yourself” and boss likes people who presented themselves well (which means they can think far and knowledgeable, but I doubt so). Teamwork is always being emphasized and this created opportunity for those buggers to take advantage on this. People around are so fake. I guess this make them strong enough to survive. I do not have sense of belonging here. I do not have the motivation to go to work and while I reach the office, I already feel like going home. Life is even “greater” when performance period set up is around the corner. You will suddenly find yourself love working so much and other activities are seems like a waste of time. I refer this period as “physical+mental torturing period”. Mom won’t know WTF is performance period set up and she won’t understand why her daughter needs to work even during weekends.

I had a very bad day and my mood was like shit. I hate this kind of feeling. It makes me feel so stupid that I was pissed off by those stupid fellows. Even my loved one does not know how to deal with me while I am in this kind of mood. Life becomes extremely sad. At this moment, I am lost and helpless…

Valentine's

It's been 2 months since I last posted something up. My apologies, especially to Her...

The both of us have our ups and downs in our relationship. But we still love each other a lot. When Valentine's Day came by, we decided to share and buy a present for the both of us. It was also to prepare for our trip to Phuket/Phi Phi that was coming up in 2 weeks time. After much consideration, we finally bought the gift itself. Behold! The Sony CyberShot DSC-W80!

Front of the camera...

Back of the camera...

Note: Photos taken using an N73... Unless the camera can take a photo of itself...

This.. is our first "child" :P We have been taking care of it together and putting it to good use a lot. In the future when you see images in this blog, they are most likely taken by this baby. It will be the first fruit of our relationship yet not the last. I hope to see more accomplishments between us in the near future. Although it's very late.. Happy Valentine's Day Dear!

Election Day

3rd March 2008 was Malaysia's 12th Election Day. This was my first time being a voter and I felt a bit excited. Woke early and followed mom to our voting place in order to avoid crowds.We reached there around 8.30am, quite a lot of people there already. Mom and I were distributed into different rooms, mom room#2 and me room#4. Need to queued outside the room for a while and I met one of my secondary classmates there. I think the whole process just took around 5 minutes.
I have to say the results were a bit shocking though, not that I stand firm for certain parties. My political viewpoint = no comments.

CNY

Time passes by very quickly. It will be the end of 4th day of cny in 15 minutes, which means need to start work tomorrow. Argh…
I feel happy and contented for this cny. We went to each other place for lunch and dinner during cny eve and 1st day of cny. My angpow income increased if compared with previous years. Thanks to his relatives :p This has marked a good beginning of wealthy year for me ahead. Hahaha…
Then he accompanied me to visit my god-parents during 2nd day of cny and we went to Kek Lok Si – place where I have not been to for many years during cny.
Where have we been on 3rd day? Oh… we went to kfc for dinner. Yes, after having the same dishes for two days, we have a strong craving for kfc.
4th day of cny which is today, I accompanied my bro to bring his doggie, Brownie to the vet. I actually hate to go that place where I used to lose my loved one.
It will be another 11 days to mark a full stop for cny. And I am now looking forward to our Phuket + Phi Phi trip… Lovey dovey V-day coming soon and another long holidays coming soon :)
