a good excuse

While counting my days and staying away from frustration and anxiety, I am creating my version of "Hall of shame" - celebrity fashion mistake... wait and see!!

counting the days...

I'll be due very soon but after visiting my gynae this morning, it seems that my baby isn't down in the pelvic yet... which normally happens during 35 - 36wk for first born. I'm in my 39th wk now, and still no sign of labouring. It's frustrating...

How do I love thee?

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of everyday's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with a passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints, --- I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! --- and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.

hormone's talking...

getting closer to the due date, my mood swing is really swinging!!!
everything seem wrong and frustrating...
even as simple as the baby movements can push me to the edge... ouch!!!

still amazed by the shape of her assets...



culture vulture

I hate Indonesian family ties culture!
It tends to violate privacy and for some thick-skinned family members it is a benefit for making life miserable for others.
And I have plenty of them from my dad's side. And being the eldest son on the family, my dad is so used to spoil his siblings and now his sibling's children. Particularly his elder sister and her family. And her selfish, stubborn and self-centered daughter thinks she can snap her finger everytime she's in trouble... and my dad will run to save her. And true enough, he does... But if it's us who are in trouble, they are nowhere to find...
My Mom and I have been enduring such ridiculous behaviour for years but we really don't know how to stop it... Again, it's the culture thingy that you can't break
Just hoping... what comes around, goes around...

I am glad my hubby only have 2sisters... and so far, they behave...

Sometimes...

I wonder if the decision was right..
I wonder if the person was right...
I wonder what would have happened if I didn't make the decision yet...
would it be better?
