Oh wow, I realized December is approaching and then leaving, all too fast and furious! The week has been good. On Monday, I met my lady colleagues for a good lunch and tea. On Tuesday, I had a drastic haircut. On Wednesday, I went for my last acupuncture session at TMC TCM (yay!!). On Thursday, I met my friend for lunch after my own breakfast at Subway, and satisfied my cravings. On Friday, I brought my girl out for lunch at Vegetarian Express Cafe.
Yesterday was a packed day, with a trip to the zoo in the morning, and two baby full month celebrations, one in the afternoon and one in the evening. Today, we bought our new home! And tomorrow... we will be flying off to Bali in 8 hours time from now. Wow. What a holiday! Okay, this is a quick entry and I'll be back... Let's all hope I have a good trip~ ^^

The Bali babymoon was great! We had a relaxing trip just lazing around, sight seeing and chilling. And here's our private pool in our villa~
We spent a wonderful 5-day-4-night vacation in Bali, staying in the Bali Island Villas and Spa. And we enjoyed the plentiful of beautiful sights in Bali.
Lots of tourists at Tanah Lot.
People chilling under the sun at Potato Head Beach Club.
Letting the waves wash over my feet at Kuta Beach.
It was also kinda a gourmet trip with our meals mostly settled at nice dining places which were either recommended by friends or top restaurants according to TripAdvisor.
Our first dinner at Ultimo was the best dinner in Bali!
Chilling before dinner at Ku De Ta.
A vegetarian meal at Earth Cafe.
A sumptuous meal at Breeze, The Samaya.
Our favourite lunch must be at Merah Putih!
Hubby loves his tender babi guling set lunch to bits.
My yummy savoury dish at Merah Putih.
And my 'nasi goreng sayur' topped with a fried egg behind.
Lots more pics (and videos too!) were shared on my Instagram. :D
And tomorrow is my gynae check! Hubby has a meeting in the morning though, so I'll be heading down to TMC alone after sending our baby girl to her childcare centre. I hope we can find out the gender so we can get down to shopping in Bangkok!

Baby wasn't in a good position today during the scan at Dr Tham's and the gender is still undetermined, so no shopping for baby stuff yet in Bangkok.
Was very upset over the Sydney siege. I was just in Sydney for a free and easy backpacking trip with a girl friend before our girl's conceived, back in 2011. Sydney is a place that is very close to us, especially in lifestyle. And what's worse? A colleague actually knows someone who's living in Sydney now and know the lady victim of the siege. When she told us, I was already tearing, as it brought this piece of news even closer to my heart than I could imagine. And reading articles on her really made me cry the whole day. She's a doting mother to 3 young kids, a high flyer and just someone, like us, living a city life, with a family to go home to, and going about doing her everyday stuff like meeting friends and buying coffee. And she was shot trying to protect her pregnant friend. She's a heroine, but now her unfortunate death also meant a lost to her family, her children and her field of profession. And it shouldn't even happen! Why? Why has our world become such a lunatic place?! This piece of news really made me very very sad. It made me wonder if anything like that could happen to anyone of us any day. And I wonder if I made the right decision to bring new innocent lives into this cruel blood-thirsty world that it is now.

Back from Bangkok! Didn't buy much compared to my last two trips. In fact we bought soooo little this time round, most of my hardcore Bangkok shopper friends will be flabbergasted at how little we bought in such a shopping paradise! Haha. Wanted to post lots of stuff, but very tired now. And once again, check out the pics shared on my Instagram. :D
Now begin the dreadful wait to the end of my school holidays. =(
26 December 2014
Boxing Day, and my last day to slack in bed late into the day, before the dreaded full days of meetings come next Monday... and then school reopens. *URGH* This was my most boring Christmas ever. No meet ups, no extravagant dinner gatherings, no parties, no gift exchanges. NOTHING. My girl got a party complete with gift exchange at her childcare centre though... she's officially more happening than me right now, and she danced the night away with her cousin at home on Christmas eve, which was super cute! Hope all of you have a great Christmas and enjoyed yourselves though. Happy Boxing Day everyone!

It's the last day of 2014. I read about people writing about closure of the year in Facebook. But what closure? I mean, me being me, I never had closures or resolutions. The years just come and go like the days, the weeks, the months. I'm simple like that, or lazy like that. Haha.
Yesterday was a full day of meetings from 7:45am to 5pm, but glad to have a great dinner with friends after the meetings, and gift exchange too! Now I'm back in school to send notes for printing and I'm supposed to be working on my SOWs but I'm just too much of a procrastinator and decided to add another blog entry instead. My baby's having a fever and I'm thinking whether I should just grab the laptop and rush home, but it's unlikely I'll get my work done at home! I wanna play with baby all day long, my final indulgence before the school term starts.
Hubby will be travelling for work from 2 January to 26 January... another long trip away from home. Sigh! I'll have to go for my detailed scan alone this time. And I'm not so keen to drive now as I'm really tired throughout the day. I hope his car won't die on me again due to not being started for days, already happened thrice in the past!
Right, stop whining and start working. Wishing everyone a happy and fulfilling 2015 ahead!!
