MERRY X'MAS WITH LOVE...

X'mas came and went. Like i written the last time, I love festives seasons becoz to me it's family time. It's bonding and sharing time. And this year was no different. last weekend was a busy long weekend.
We celebrated X'Mas day itself at my SIL's house, with the tree, presents, food and all. lovely...



Boxing Day was spent at my side of my family at my cousin's house with a BBQ dinner. That's like a total chaos becoz so many little ones running around. You see, all of Faye's cousins from my side are all around her age 1-4 years old with one at 9yrs. Except for Elaine whom is a grown little lady of 24yrs (Right, Elaine?).
Faye loved every bit of it, her being a social butterfly (hahah)...



Sunday was spent recuperating with ourselves at home and at Subang Parade. And Faye opened her presents. She got her first Barbie doll, from her Ku-Mah.





Merry X'mas everyone. Hope you had a great X'Mas celebration, just like we had!!!!

Taman Negara 2009

Came back from Taman Negara about 2 weeks ago (4th Dec - 6th Dec 09). It was our Zenith company trip (3 days 2 nites). Stayed at the Mutiara Resort Taman Negara. This was my 2nd trip there. First trip was years and years ago, with a bunch of my collegues (a few ex and one or two still current). We stayed at the dorm unit then, being the young cikus bunch we were then. This time around, because it's company trip, we stayed at chalets with 2 roomies assigned to one chalet. Didn't take any pictures of the trip, because silly me took my camera there, BUT.....i realised when i was there, that i left my memory card in my notebook back home. Silly silly silly......
Anyways, the trip was ok la...The company was great. But the environment...errr....ok la..mainly becuase i m not a huge fan of jungles and forests, and trekings into the jungles. Never was and probably nvr will be. I don't mind doing it because it's an official function or must-do kinda thingy. But if i have a choice, it's the sunny beaches or bustling cities for me. I really don't fancy jungle trekking and exploring or admiring the floral or fauna. I am usually too busy looking at the next step ahead of me and which step or roots shall i step on, instead of looking around me or looking at the leaves or trees or birds or whatever la.. My mind would be always thinking of "Are we there yet? Have we reached there yet? When is this going to end? Like quickly now..." Hahahha..My friends have asked every now & then to go climb Mount Kinabalu....and i will be like "Are u crazy?". And they will go like "think of the sense of achievement when you are up there.." and I will be like "It's ok...i can think of a lot of other things i can achieve without climbing a mountain" Hahhahaha....that's me...and me not loving the jungle much..

Anyways, back to the company trip, of course there was a jungle trekking excursion, and thank god, the guides did us a favour by doing the short cut route, or else...hmpt...i dunno man. And of course, my bloody muscles were aching after that. But like that la..what to do..Taman Negara. When in Rome, do what the Romans do..

Of course, there were drinking session. And Club 65 ..(the assigned drinking room). But i was only there for the first nite..2nd nite was an escape nite for me...went to bed early....hahahahah....

That's our company trip this year....to our local destination of Tmn Negara. 2009 was not such a great year for the agency, so boss had to do local instead.
Here's to great and fruitful 2010 ahead. So that we can go to a much further destination that has a different currency. Heee....
Cheeeeerrrrssss...

Ghost Rider's Bike

This is way overdated posting, but I thought I should still blog a short one on it. Though I am not a big bike enthusiast, but I thought this was way cool. Came across this on a Sunday trip down to Pavilion.


This is like Ghost Rider....Woh....

I LOVE X'MAS......FALALALALALALALA

I was at Pavilion on Tuesday for lunch, and their X'mas deco was nice...Have a look at a few shots I took. They had a reindeer sleigh flying off to the sky as well, but i didn't take that pic (lighting was not right..)




It's X'mas time!! I love X'Mas time. Though I am not a Christians or whatever, I still love X'mas. I love X"mas for the spirit of giving,love, celebrations and the holiday mood that it brings along with it. My family very kepoh-kepoh celebrate X'mas for the fun of it. The kids love it. The pressies that come with it. The adults love to buy the pressies, esp for the kids. The whole ambience of it....it's just so divine.
Merry X'Mas everyone....Hohohohooooooo

My Little Princess aka Boss

As of today, my little Faye is 3years 7 months ols. She has grown by leaps and bounds in the last few months, mentally and physically. She can now more or less hold a conversation with you, and these conversations usually gets me and my hubby smiling or laughing, cos her reactions or responses are usually quite out-of-the-blue, authentic and unexpected and damn cute. And she is now in her "What are you doing?" or "where are we now?" stage. And in her eyes (ours too of course), she's the Princess Faye Faye. Sometimes when she's in her "I want...(something)...mode", my hub and I would answer or tease her "Yes, Boss", she would answer back "I m not the boss, I am Princess Faye Faye". It's so funny..

And she loves to sing and dance,. Mostly sing. She can pick up notes and rhythms quite quickly. And then she would be singing it for the next few days. Her current favourites are songs from Kelly Clarkson, Bon Jovi, koko Daniel, Footloose and the most most recent one is the new commercial song from our local singer Shila for TM Connect.

I m very proud to say that she also loves to read. Not exactly like real reading yet, but she loves to pick up her children books, or sometimes my own books or magazines, and she would flip thru and look at pictures, and ask me "What's this Mommy? What's happening here?". I have been exposing her to books since she was a little baby, either reading to her, or just surrounding her with it (in her playroom or the bedroom) and I am glad that it is paying off somehow.

She's not afraid of people and she can just go up to a little boy or gal, and try to say something or hold their hands. And she would go "This is my friend". And that little boy or gal would usually just stare back at her and probably think who is this crazy weird little gal. A few would run to their parents. LOL...

I send my Princess to Tumble Tots every Sunday for a 1 1/2 session of interativity and fun learning. She loves it. We reckoned that's where she has her friends, she can sing, dance, and do creative artwork, and just tumble around. Because of this, we are really looking forward to her starting her Kindy sessions next year.
But of course, knowing the procastinators parents she has, we have not really decided which Kindy we will send her to....and it's already mid-Nov. Tsh tsk tsk bad mommy daddy...But we will, soon. No worries, cos there are tons of Kindies in Subang area...we hope.

It's a real blessing to see her everyday, in her antics. Sometimes in her tantrums where she would say "Throw this..throw that" or "Throw Mommy" "Throw Daddy", but most of the time it's the cutesy and adorableness of my Princess that wins me over.

It's been a challenge for me, esp lately, where it's been at times long hours at work,along with the stress and yet I have to handle my role as a Mommy. But so far, i have been able to handle, to the best capability that I can. My hubby too...These past few years have been a whole new journey for both of us. But with Princess Faye aka Boss with us, we wouldn't have it any other way (other than lesser stress and hours at work would be far better....hmmm..)

With much love and kisses and hugz to my little Princess Faye....

It's Sunday, and we and my planner are back at our lovely office to work and hopefully finish off our Brand Plan that is due for 1st round presso on Thur. Sigh..it's actually an easy plan to do (i think ...in my POV)..but somehow i m not so inspire yet to complete it. It's like I am having some mind block or something. I m writing the flow of the presso with the crux and all that. And my darling planner is filling in the information into it. And i m stuck into completing it.
Hmmm....so wat do i do now?

Die die also hv to complete it lor...Just that I am waiting for the magic...the magic on a Sunday afternoon...

Roller Coaster October

After a great festive month of Sept, October has been so far a hellish month for me. My work load is tremendous, stress pressures are up to my eye balls and whatever balls. I am swamped with deadlines, brand plans, and on top of that a pitch. I don't even know if i can survive October...... So HELPPPPPPPPPPP........
