The Unbalanced Libra..

I resumed my cold calling last week, and got myself 5 meetings from 2 days of calling!  That kinda boosted my morale.  So i've been busy meeting all kinds of people these days.  Met with Link Hotel, Tiong Aik, supposed to meet Amara Sentosa today but the lady went on MC. Lucky i didn't go all the way to Sentosa to meet her!

Tomorrow will be Hilton.  Hopefully no more last minute cock up.  

Sigh.. till now, there are no news of my job assignment when i return to work in 2 weeks time.  Super upset at the way things have been handled so far by my HR and my supervisors.  Think it's time to start searching for another job.  K's cousin just got herself a job as an administrator at a financial institution paying her $4.2K a month.  Maybe i should switch to the finance industry... = )  So without further ado, i sent out more than 50 resumes today.. While i am still on leave, hopefully someone will call me for an interview!

Bria is 3 months and 6 days young!  My baby has grown and changed so much over the last 3 months.  = )

She has learnt how to babble, her head is much more steady now, K and I discovered she can flip herself over, and just today, we heard her first laugh!  I finally managed to get a video recording of Bria babbling, laughing and also trying her flip.  But YouTube's taking bloody long to upload my video so will upload it on my blog later. 

Apparently, C has known for some time that Bria can flip over herself and laugh.  But she told me that this morning's laugh was a rare one cause it was quite a long one. I'm quite disappointed that I wasn't there when Bria had all these "firsts"!   

Another busy weekend! On Saturday, K and I attended a Mums' and Dads' congress at Fairmont Hotel .  The congress was supposed to start at 12pm, but when we reached the hotel ballroom, there was a super long queue for registration.  The whole registration process is so messed up and inefficient that I was really disappointed.  No wonder they purposely call it the "FIRST" Mums' and Dads Congress. = )

It was time and money well spent i would say. Although most of the things they discussed about I already know, i also learnt some new things like doing body massage for babies.. I have been massaging Bria for 2 days since, and she loves it!

Plus, there were a lot of free goodies such as milk powder, diapers and lots of lotions etc..  There's even a buffet spread for tea break.  And i must say the spread is very good, although the quality is average.  Got fried noodles, cakes and desserts, chicken, pies, sandwiches.  We definitely got back more than the $24 we paid for this congress.

K left during the tea break cause he was too tired.. so i attend the rest of the seminar by myself.  Also managed to catch Zoe Tay and Darren Chin for this session where they shared their experiences as parents.  Quite interesting...

Then on Sunday, I brought Bria to my dad's house, met his new maid, and then went for 3 hours of badminton.  First hour at Joo Chiat CC with Pui and Gary, then the next 2 hours at the airport with Pui, Gary and my in laws.  Brought Bria to the airport and had a tough time trying to convince my mother in law not to wear these leggings cause Bria hates to be warm.  Plus there is no matching top for the leggings.  I didn't want Bria looking "unmatched" in front of my friends! But she keep insisting cause she said the a/c at the airport is very cold.  Sigh.. I suggested swaddling Bria if she's cold, and even complain to K.. But we both still lost to my mom in law. Bria eventually ended up with leggings.  

Actually she still looked really cute lah, so not so bad.. haha.. Hated the cushion cover of the sofa at the airport though!  Super ugly design...

I went to the Taka baby fair last Friday.. Supposed to meet up with Jas and Ruby, but didn't cause Ruby fell sick.  So in the end, K drove me to Taka.  I went to the fair while he went for his Miata Club meeting in the Singapore Polo Club.

There were SO many pregnant women at the fair that i had to be extra careful when i walk around. Seeing all of them just made me miss my pregnancy.. haha.. =)  

As usual, there weren't much stuff for me to buy at the fair.  I ended up buying baby wipes, swaddling blanket, bottle detergent and diapers for Bria. I did see ALOT of toys that i want to buy for Bria, but they were all too expensive.. SIGH.. how i wish i can buy them all.  Think Bria will have lots of fun playing with those toys!!

Maybe i will persuade K to buy one for Bria when i get my salary end of this month!
