Tuesday, 29th July 2008.

Having a day with my twin this particular day. It's been so long since both of us chill out for a shopping session again. Finally we head down to Nyp for brunch after such a long request since days and months back. And sad enough, my cough inhibits me from their most tempting bubble tea in the sch. Yes, i can only see twin savored down those chewy pearls and sips by sips. Lam, u better join us next time yea.

Head down to bugis, town, ps and chinatown for a shopping spree. Well, my hole is not burnt cuz my spree is so minimum. Unlike someone huh. Anyway they are good buys for you twiny. Hah. Apparently, we should be heading down for korean steampot, but in the end we landed ourselves for a budget dinner at Chinatown. LOLS. Streets by streets trying to find a good buy for goh's ipod casing but eventually she only got herself a screen protector. Okay, we are dropping dead by then. So ah goh, u get it at compasspoint in the end? =)

Coming week will be the start of new school term. Oh lord, why time flies? Monday morning breakfast, girls!

I'm hoping the bad will just ease away. Life goes on indeed; at times i still cant seem to get over it. So bad so I teared silently times and times. Tears for consolation so as not to see you suffer, tears of misses are nothing but such a drastic pain in me. This is life I take it. Still, I'm moving on.

Evening picnic with the girls and boyfriends at lower seletar is awesome and a success. Though, sad enough baby's absence makes me miss him here and there. Each of us brought our own prepared dish, and i was lucky enough to have my mum prepared a big serving of potatoes with apples and eggs salad.

Pat's girl came and picked us up. So in the end the 4 girls together with joc we were early. And pretty obvious we set our mouths first, our stomachs growling ever. Well, the company, the ambient and the food were triple thumbs up. Despite of my un-recovered voice, we just talked and joked non-stop. Having 3 plates of pasta with about 10 sotong and fishballs and sandwich popped into my tummy made my day additionally. Wahah!

Pat's pup Shiro was such a pampering lovely dog. I love you too, Shiro. Hah. Anyway, we excused ourselves at Pat's unit for urgent needs and this gave me a chance to see her cutie.

Head back and we continued with our non-stop conversations. Anyway the 2 couples were just too indulged in their gambling. Dots but okay. Oh in the end we got to meet this special guest, part of us soon? Get the ah neh joshua to join us in future gathering yea jasmine? LOLS.

Eventually, the drizzle rushed us and made us bid each other goodbyes. Alright, more to come when bella's back then. =)

On a side note, I never know I can miss you so much Ray Chng.

Despite of my croaking and manly voice, i seriously cant stop screeching my voicebox to talk and laugh with them throughout. You girls seriously can make me laugh and look forward for our meet-up next week again. Yes, i was thinking of so many activities just in a day. How about sun-tanning at siloso together with lunch at nyp and freezing ourselves in K? Wahah. Okay i'm greedy, lunching at nyp is a must next week okay girls? =)

Anyway meet up with the girls at suntec for pasta dinner followed up by coffee at starbucks. Meddling with twin's htc gonna be our routine soon when school starts i bet. Cuz of your 3.2 megapixels! Best among us already. LOLS.

This weekend is finally a bliss for me. Free from my freaking heavy head and never-ending cough is a slight bliss so far, so good maybe. Went to reform my long straight strands to something baby has been pushing me to do, wave it! Initially wana perform it last sun, who knows nothing good but bad luck chunks on me that very appointment day. Nobody to blame, my immune system is never good. I need more fruits, even more fruits to boost my immune up! More food to gain back my lose fats and carbos. So whatever i can eat now, i will never forgo it what's more i lost one whole week of junks and snacks. I'm turning back to miss dino very soon. Roar.

Went down to millenia walk candy empire with baby this afternoon. Bought a big pack filled of choco and truffles and cookies for the MUFJ colleagues. Yes, coming week is my last week of work. I'm so gonna miss the peeps, esp the Doctor department. One week of mc even make this coming last mon a despo of me to go to work. They made my working days to the fullest, busy but busy with jokes and giggles are just ample.

Meet up with dad they all for dinner after that. Dinner at chong pang, and i realised how come we had this special table seperated from the rest. Uncle meow said cuz we are VIP, this serves the purpose. -_- OKAY!

Reached home and baby decided to snap shots. Anyway, since ah meh meh went to bath first family photo will be postpone. My photographer Ray Chng is snapping a family photo for us soon, cool! So i'm the main lead for his night. Mummy and dad were kaypoh so they came into the room to see, in the end mummy became the lighting man, nope woman. LOLS. I like some of the pics, though some are blur but still i love your work always baby. I dont put it in my mouth always, but at times my heart praises it.

Loads of love,
ah girl.

Days and days of no post. Yes jasmine neubronner, I got the strength to type on this keyboard today. Like finally. -_-

Past 1 week is a torment for me. Saturday night i was already shivering over at grandma's hse and my body is aching all over. I knew something bad gonna happened. Yes dopeshit enough, i got high fever when baby accompanied me to the doc on Sun morning. Medicine doesnt seem to ease any single degree or body heat away from me. Grandma was sweet enough to brew some herbal tea and brought down for me.

This dragged on for a day. Baby was taking care for me throughout the entire night, feeding me with medicine, water and constantly changing of ice bag. Yes, my temp dropped by 0.5. But still it was a false alarm. By morning my temp went back again, dad brought me to this chinese doc whom from young our famiy kids will always approach him whenever we are very sick. True enough, i suffered from 'moman'.

Well, during young times when we suffered from this illness, you know what this doc will do. He will use this needle go over our body and back, pricked it and squeezed out the dirty blood. You can hear screams and cries throughout the entire hse. Yes, painful is never an enough word to describe here but yes it heals fast.

Knowing I have this 'moman' that very moment, the doc asked me if i can take pain again and if i want to go through this needle treatment. Straight away my hand cross is up and my head is shaking violently. I told him i will just comsume his oral medication. Dad on the other side was persuading me, 'Girl, ni bu yao 'ya' (prick) hen nan hao de, ni xiao shi hou ye shi ge uncle ya, ni gan ni xian zai zhe mo xin ku.' I was half-hesitating already, but i just lacked the courage eventually.

Went home, dad was a sweet one. He was looking after me like a lil girl. He went to the market to get for my food. Came home and start preparing like a busy man. Cook and wash for me, though the noodle tastes a lil hard but i love the taste and ur effort dad. Feed me with medicine, change ice bags for me, massage for me just to make me feel a lil comfy. His every 10 minutes sentence will be, girl feeling better? Though my body feels worst after taking the first day medication but my heart actually melts for him as a dad.

Tuesday mum takes off, dad also went to take off. My temp were drawing to 40 the entire monday. My head is burning and hurting like mad. I cant even sleep properly. Initially wana send me down to hospital, but by tuesday my temp came down to 38+. As usual mum did the cooking and medication, dad was taking care of me by changing icebags and taking of temp.

Now came my cough, and i started to feel alil breathless on wed. Dad quickly brought me to the doc again. Bad enough, my lung was infected and i was given a jab. I asked the doc can it be pneumonia, he told me there is a possibility. He told me by fri if my condition still persists, the next place to go will be the hospital. Needles and pricks give me a chill. That very night i wasnt feeling very good, i was breathing quite hard and temp was up. Dad came to my bedside, bring a small container of ice water and a towel. He was sitting by my side on a stool, constantly changing the cold towel for me.

Strange enough I had this very beautiful dream that night. I dreamt of my grandpa twice. And this dream ended with grandpa holding on to me and i gave him my kiss. Everything vanished suddenly and i woke up. It was exactly one month he passed away. Standing by his alter holding to the joss sticks and talking to him can bring tears down secretly at times. I was calling for you almost everyday, do you know how much i still misses you. You come to my dreams, you bring me smile in my sleep after that. Now, i'm tearing with misses again. How i wish i can kiss you, kiss you face to face.

You, grandma, dad, mum and baby you give me the strength again. I love you.

To my cousins, sister, relatives, friends, especially goh, lam, jas, my colleagues thanks for the well-wishes and warmth concern. Your words touch me. I'm really fine now. Thank you.

Loads of love,
andrea.

It's already more than 2 weeks. Not one day i can ease my mind off with grandpa. Despite of all the shops and dine, nothing beats the real warmth when u'r around at home. I prayed so hard, hoping you could just visit me in my dreams. Whereby dreams seem so real for me just to see you.

I missed your touch and I lost your hug.

Fishing on a sunday morning at lower seletar with baby and linghan. Okay both of them are really big jokers. I just cant stop my gigs when they were so eager to throw their rod bait into the sea, one ended up on the grass, the other one got stucked on the rocks. Initially i thought how good their fishing skills can be, but truthfully they are just my assumptions. Okay at least i earned a good laugh this morning. Okay guys, practice will make perfect. SMILE.

Baby we wash the photo big big and frame it up on the room's wall alright?

Head down to ikea in the late afternoon with baby and his friends. I want beautiful deco too sweetheart! Shall we?
