Pregnancy Updates: Half way there!

I'm 20 weeks pregnant now! It's a halfway milestone and it has been really smooth *touch wood* so far since the beginning of 2nd trimester. The vomiting and nausea seems to be gone overnight as I moved into Week 14. The very day my iPhone app congratulate me on my milestone, I felt a gush of energy rushing back to my body. And, for the first time in 3 months I felt... hungry! It was such a great feeling, I got ready to work and before heading out, I put up joss sticks to thank god for this miracle. And I kept my fingers, toes and everything crossed this feeling last. I bet my baby is a very punctual baby, just like the daddy. So with the deadly morning sickness gone, I am feeling myself again and started to enjoy the pregnancy much. My rhintis seems to get better after hubby installed the air purifier in our room and I get good sleeps every night with clear nostrils. My bump is showing and everyone is quite surprised to see a bump at just beginning of 3rd month. I research

Chinese Wedding Customs

We religiously followed the Chinese tradition for our wedding, quite many efforts were put in to fulfill the customs but nevertheless it made our wedding events more colourful and lovely. 1. Tai Chan (Wedding Initiation) The very first custom for a Chinese wedding is "Tai Chan" which means the Groom's family would make a visit to the Bride's family to initiate the intention for wedding, check on the compatibility of the couple and discuss on the "terms & conditions". But in modern days, this step is basically just a casual meet up between the 2 families to discuss on dinner details or any special customs arrangement for different dialect group etc. This is the case due to usually both families had already meet up during the R.O.M after lunch and they both should be well notified and acknowledged of the union. So Wilson's parents came along to my home for this, and we had a good discussion on especially the dinner part. We are organizing

My 2 Rascals

I was the only child in the family, for the first 6 years in my life. I've always wanted younger siblings so I can bully, I mean play with.. (;p) My mom told me that I used to pray to god to grant me siblings. - Praying hard - Before the arrival of my brothers, I was the princess at home. I get everything I want. My stubbornness came from "good" nurturing. Haha.. But I still wish to have siblings. You know why? Cause my other cousins have at least 3 siblings and they were always in a gang, and I was always alone. I used to talk to my toys (especially my soft toy bunny) and my replica Barbie Dolls. (my mom cheated me! used to get me market dolls and claimed they're expensive!) My cousins used to tease me crazy and retarded because of this. So I want my gang too! - My 6th birthday. I'm the only one, others were brothers and sisters - For how much I prayed, I know god has been good to me all these while. I'm granted 2 little brothers, MH was born when I was in St

UTAR Kampar - Ipoh day trip

Last Sunday, we went to UTAR, Kampar to make booking for MH's hostel and check out the conditions there. I couldn't remember when was the last time I went out-of-KL with my family. Life had been so hectic recent years. We took the opportunity to take a day tour to Kampar-Ipoh. We started the journey at 9 in the morning after breakfast. It was my first experience fetching my family outstation. I had a mixed feeling, just like what my mom described, it was her and dad to fetch us last time but now I'm the one driving. Time flies. The journey was very enjoyable as my 2 talkative brothers kept me entertained with their never ending stories. I'm glad to have them around seriously. Hard times are always easier with their jokes and laughter echoing in the house. - On the way to UTAR - At about 11am, we reached Kampar. The place is as deserted as how everyone describes. UTAR is about half an hour away from the toll exit. Along the way was some sort of rural estate with 1 or 2
