Job Interview

11:34 PM by Adeline Woo 0 comments
After a long discussion with K, I decided to drop my interview with Popular next Wed.. K said I should just stay on with EM cause it's more stable, especially since we are going to try for another baby soon.. 

I guess it won't be too nice if i joined a new company and then get pregnant soon after.

Yesterday, i was sending emails to my Japanese customer, and jokingly asked him if he has vacancies in his company.. He got serious and offered me a job.  He was even willing to pay my asking salary to be his secretary!  Haha.. K got a bit angry at me cause this Japanese guy is a bit "ti koh" one..  Always asking me to have lunch with him. Our friend used to work for him, and he actually asked her to marry him.  When she refused, he started to treat her like shit..

This of course made me think twice about working for him.  Then again, he is married now, and he knows i have a baby.. So i guess he won't ask me to marry him then. On one hand, i am so attracted to the idea of having a higher pay and doing easy work that doesn't require OT or bringing work home, so i can spend more time with Bria.  But on the other hand, I am worried about the unknown and also the idea of having a boss who is obviously hiring me based on my looks.  Sigh..  I guess if i am really lazy and have not much integrity, i should go ahead, accept his offer and enjoy a higher salary and a boss who is SURE to look out of me....  = )

Happy April's Fool Day!

11:18 PM by Adeline Woo 0 comments
Here's how i spent my April Fool's Day today:

This morning, i had planned to bring baby for her check up at Thomson, since i had an appointment with my gynae as well.  So i called the Paedi's clinic, and found out that they are only open half day today.  So in the end, i did not bring Bria for her check up.

Instead, i went with K to Ubi to buy more bubble wrap to wrap up the props we dismantled yesterday.  Drove the MX5 there and realized the boot was too small to hold everything we had bought.  We had to balance the carton boxes on our heads while driving home.. Here's a shot of K looking funny driving with the carton box on his head.. haha..


After lunch at home, I went for my free facial at Beyond Beauty.  This was the most painless and enjoyable facials I've had so far.  The extraction was painless, and the entire facial treatment was just super nice.  I had their "Oxygen Treatment".  Basically, i had small but strong gushes of pure cool oxygen spraying against my face, plus massage, and this cooling mask with more oxygen spraying on my face for a full 15 mins!  How rare is it to get pure oxygen right?!  So while the oxygen was being sprayed onto my face, i kept breathing in deeply to get as much of the pure oxygen in my lungs as possible! = )

K came to pick me after my facial, and sent me straight to Thomson for my check up.  Waited about an hour there before i was called in.  Ah Lim did the usual check up and a pap smear for me.  While he was doing the ultrasound, I was actually hoping to see another baby inside my womb.  But there was nothing.  Felt quite disappointed!  Anyway, I asked Ah Lim and he said i can resume my exercise regime and go for full body massage liao.. can't wait!!

Took a bus back from Thomson after my check up, and had K pick me up from the bus stop cause it's quite far from our house.  In the car, K asked me about my check up, and I decided to fool him and tell him I'm pregnant again.. My first and only April fool's "stunt" today!  K didn't know whether to believe me though, he was like smiling and asking me "really ah?" several times.  I think a big part of him wanted to believe it was true... = )  

When i reached home, I saw that Bria's new toy had arrived.  I had bought this Fisher Price Kick and Play Piano via vPost USA like 2 weeks back.  Was just about to email SingPost and chase for it.

Anyway, kind of regretted buying it liao.  Firstly, the stupid compartment for batteries is so damn hard to unscrew.  Secondly, the music volume is so damn soft.  Cannot hear anything once Bria starts to cry.  And last but not least, Bria doesn't seem to know how to kick the keyboard.  She kept kicking the animals on top of the keyboard.  So in the end, we have to let her sit up so she can see the keyboard and then we press the keyboard for her instead.  She loves looking at the colorful animals and listening to the music like this! = )


"Chor Gang"

10:51 PM by Adeline Woo 0 comments
After pampering myself yesterday afternoon with a massage and pedicure, K brought me along to do some "Chor Gang" (rough chores) in the evening at Page One Vivocity.  The Moleskine notebooks he was selling had a month long event for their new "Passions" range, so yesterday K had to tear down all the posters and dismantle the props on display at Page One.  We stayed there from 830 to 10pm dismantling the props and posters and rearranging the notebooks that had all been messed up by consumers who don't care less.

It was quite fun though, just the 2 of us husband and wife doing this kind of work.  I even got to push one of those trolleys and went into the loading lift to load and unload the props.  

Here's a picture of me taking a break and posing with the huge ass Moleskine notebook mock ups on display. = )

Another nice pedi..

12:45 AM by Adeline Woo 0 comments
I went all the way to Douby Gaut today for a pedicure.. Spa Elements was having a promotion for their classic pedicure.. It was going for $28 which is pretty cheap.  So i decided to give it a try.

I also did their 30 minute Radio Frequency Massage.  Basically had this hot thingie rolling around my tummy for 30 minutes.  It's supposed to make me slimmer and reduce my stretch marks.  But of course one session is not enough la.. So after my session, i was invited into a room to speak with one of their consultants..

Even before the consultant sat down, i said: "Can i just pay and leave?"  So she LL bo pian had to let me go.. At the cashier's, she did one last attempt to persuade me to sign up for their package, even using her colleagues to psycho me, but i still refused.  So proud of myself.. haha.. = )

So i left with a set of nice toenails without buying a hole in my pocket by signing up for any packages.. Can't stop admiring my toes now.. I love the nail art!!  I think i am hooked on nail art now.. Was even thinking of taking photos of all my nail art so i can have a mini collection.. Die lah..

Sleeping on one side...

12:37 AM by Adeline Woo 0 comments
Bria has been sleeping on her side for the past 2 nights now.. It's her new "pattern" now..  Problem is when she rolls back and lands on her back, she startles and starts crying..

She's behaving so much like an adult these days.. In fact, her sleeping position is exactly the same as K's.. with bolster in between legs.. haha.. = )
