The World @ My Fingertips

I do stop by the jewelry store every now and then to see what interesting designs they have on display. Last weekend, i saw a very nice diamond bracelet and stopped a little longer than usual to look at it. Hubby also agreed that the design is unusual and suggested i sell off all my gold jewelry as price of gold is quite high lately. I told him even if i sell them all off, i’d rather keep the money in a long term investment plan than buy that diamond bracelet. I no longer like wearing bracelets as they tend to get in the way when i work at my computer. I wear bracelets on my right hand and i also use the mouse with my right hand, ok. Nevermind. I’ll just wait till price of gold is higher before deciding what to do with all the old gold jewelry in my drawer. What about you? Would you sell yours if the price of gold goes higher?

When was the longest time you’ve been away from your kids? I’ve only been away from Gordon for two nights when i gave birth to Malcolm. The other time when i was away from the both of them was when i was hospitalized due to a bad case of food-poisoning last year. That’s about it. Hubby had to bring Malcolm to the hospital twice a day to nurse. If not, he’ll be whining away for me boobs, lol. In a way, i cant bear to be away from them for long hours. Maybe i’m the attached one, hahaha.

Malcolm will turn three in a couple of days time. I havent planned anything special for my kid yet. Hubby may want to take them to the pool for a swim in the evening during the weekend. Gordon doesnt quite like water, but i hope he will give it a try. If not, i’ll have to accompany him around the pool area whilst hubby have fun with Malcolm in the pool. I still have a few days more to think of something interesting for my kids this weekend. Any suggestions?

Gordon’s tantrums are getting worse by the day. He used to listen and follow my instructions when he’s younger. His teacher told me about his behaviour at school this afternoon. When he wants something, he will throw a big tantrum until she gives in to him. I feel that this is not right. I told her she can reprimand him if he misbehaves. His teacher has patience, but she’s worried about him when he goes to Std 1 next year. The teachers there may not understand him much and lose patience with him. So how? Half a year later, my boy will enter Std 1. I can foresee a difficult journey for both my kid and i come next year. SIGH…..

Malcolm loves motorcycles these days. At the foodcourt last weekend, he sat on one and had so much fun. We took so many pictures of him on it and back home, he cant stop looking at his pics. Hubby suggested we buy an electric motorcycle for him for his third birthday. It’s just round the corner. Well, if we can find one that’s economical enough, we’ll buy it for him. You know, they outgrow these toys very fast and they are not cheap. Moreover, he doesnt have a younger sibling to give it to, lol. Yesterday, we passed by my friend’s house and saw that he had placed motorcycle covers over his two bikes. That just means he’s away again. If not, we’ll get him to take malcolm for a ride on one of those mean machines. Oh well, next time.

I just read the news that Ida Nerina, a local entertainer, suffered a fall and hurt her spine. She may be paralysed waist down. She’s one of the talented few out there that i enjoyed watching though i may not fancy our local drama series. I hope with our advanced medical care and her family support, she’ll regain the use of her legs soon. Dont give up, Ida Nerina. We’re all here to cheer you on your road to recovery

Yesterday, we went to check out some new housing development called Uplands. I quite like the interior design but both hubby and i felt that the wet kitchen could have been bigger. Moreover, the interior designer should have installed stainless steel backsplash to it instead of leaving it bare with just the plain kitchen tiles. Anyway, we dont have that kind of money to buy such a house. A unit costs Rm600k upwards.

It’s been ages since i last sat here at my pc. I’ve been busy attending to my kids for the past 16 days straight. School holidays are no joke when one has two active kids. Even though Gordon goes to tutor for a few hours during the day, Malcolm is still home 24hrs a day, lol. We took him along with us when we have to go out. Hubby wanted to sign up for a gym membership and we went hunting for the perfect gym package. The last one we went to had a professional trainer to help with his exercise routine. He recommended my hubby take some weight loss supplement called Stemulite as it can help him lose unwanted fat effectively. We’ve not heard of it before. The trainer gave us a link to a site where we can learn more about how Stemuliute helps athletes with their weight management. We’ll definitely check the site out. You may want to hop over to the site and read about Stemulite too.

My sis drove my mom back to my Grandma’s house for a chat the other day. She even went to pay my Aunt a visit as they are staying in the same area. My aunt has breast cancer and it’s already at the terminal stage. She told my mom doctors have predicted she’ll get to live for around 2 to 3 years only. My aunt has decided not to undergo chemotherapy but opted for alternative treatment for breast cancer instead. I can only pray that she gets past this hurdle of her life. It’s so sad that one has to be afflicted with some terminal stage cancer during her retirement. My mom told me that my aunt is very afraid that soon, she may end up in bed wearing adult diapers till she the day she dies. I think it’s not good to feel sorry for oneself this way. One has to stay positive and fight the cancer as long as one is still alive. Never give up!!!!

My girlfriend called me up a few days and told me she’d like to buy her daughter an MP3 player for her upcoming birthday. She’s surprised that young girl her age knows so much about music these days. Her daughter used to listen to music on my friend’s handphone, lol. I think all young girls have at least a personal MP3 player these days. I’m not into music but my kids loves Karaoke very much. I believe in time to come, they will also like music very much. Well, i told my friend about this site that sells good Mp3 players at affordable prices. If you are also looking for an MP3 player for kids, you may want to check the site out too.
