Just some thoughts of the day...
Some events that triggered such thoughts...


It is how weird that in life, it’s not always a case of “you be good to others, others will be good to you”.

Is it because, as one grows up and being the oh-so-nice person one always is, being taken for granted naturally comes into play?

Or is it because, the nicer person you are, the more will people try to take advantage of you?

Or is it because, you hardly say “no”, you become a “Yes” Man?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why is it that “I don’t know” is a favourite word of some people?

There are certain things in life that I thought won’t be easily forgotton, but apparently, I’m wrong.

Why is it that when you are asking for advices, people give a “I don’t know” reply?

Is it because that person truly do not know, or is that person trying to act don’t know?

Or is it purely a stupid question to be asked? I wonder…

Was watching a Channel 8 repeat drama about a water vat yesterday evening. Reminded me of how life is now.

Is money that important that one can sever ties? Is money that important that husbands and wife can betray each other, siblings can fall out, and parents become “nothing”?

Maybe – in life, in papers, you always see it, you always read it, and it probably happens to someone you know.

What is this world coming to?

Like someone once told me, it’s hard to be a good person.

To be a good person, you have lots to consider, you have lots to think of. And you have to consider the aftermath.

But regardless of all the headaches, at the end of the day, what you probably want is to have a good sleep. How true.

But how many people actually bothers????

Down with flu again... or is it just stuffy nose??

The last was just early this month. So unlike me... :(

Feeling so uncomfy.

OSCAR Test

Have you guessed it from the previous post??? Hiak hiak..... If you havent, the following account should be a clear indication... :)

We went to TMC for the OSCAR test on 26 November 2008. Appointment was at 9am.

If you are wondering what the OSCAR test is.... here's an extract:

It is an earlier and more accurate method of screening for risk of fetal anomalies, in particular Down's Syndrome. It is a combination of maternal age, fetal NT and serum biochemistry. In short, it meant 1) ultrasound measurement of Nuchal Translucency (NT) at 11-13 weeks 6 days gestation of the fetus, 2) a sample of the mother's bloos is analysed for levels of free beta hCG and PAPP-A (pregnancy associated plasma Protein A). Er.... dont ask me what all this "big words" meant, cos I also dont know.

Anyway, for those who are concern, I cleared those tests. Of cos both Brian and I are elated!

I had to take the ultrasound scan 3 times becos:

the first time, baby was in a perfect position, but becos me, who is so scare of ticklish, moved alittle when the scanner moved. Thus, baby also decided to change position. Boo to me, rite???

got to go take my blood test, walk about for 10-20 mins before the 2nd try. this time, i was mentally prepared but.... baby decided to do stunts, which is diving. probably just like the father.... hahahha

no choice, got to walk around again.... and i have with me a very full bladder. but leh, cannot go toilet as it will be easier to scan with a full bladder.

the 3rd time, baby is really cooperative. maybe it was becos Brian kept rubbing my tummy and asking baby to be cooperative so that we can go shopping after that. haha... and well, baby is really good by lying flat. The person taking the scan managed to take a few screenshots of what she needed to take. but now, i guess baby fell asleep. either that or is lost in his/her own world. hahah..... becos no matter how i cough or laugh or move sideways, baby decided to not move at all, lying nicely with the head tucked in. we needed baby to be actually lying straight or "standing" cos we needed to measure baby's length to correctly and further confirm the EDD.

And guess what?? Brian said baby is just like me. Stubborn and metal teeth. Dont wana move means dont wana move. wahhahahahahah

And when we decided to give up, well, baby decided to wake up and dance. wahahhah.... ccan you imagine our expressions????!!!!

i think baby gonna bring us lotsa laughter...

thinking of this, i cant help but smile.

waiting for the next appointment. and hopefully, gender will be revealed.

A Challenging 2009?

Another month to 2009...
