it’s a tiring hospital visit day

i’m tired (what’s new?)!

rushed down to bugis in the morning to buy precious moments for Raeann. frankly speaking, i doubt many people give such presents for first baby visit but yuling used to love precious moments and i love them too, so i felt it was the perfect opportunity to buy one for her. who knows, maybe yuling no longer likes precious moments now, but still hope she likes the present itself! a little memento for little pretty Raeann!

the bugis experience sucks. peiyu wasn’t there and the 2 girls who served me wasn’t really experienced. i was running late and they took more than half hour to serve me when i was the only customer. in the end i had to take a cab down to amk hub to meet jackie.

the cab ride was pretty bad as well. the driver asked me which route do i prefer. i have no idea cos i’m not familiar with that area, so i told him nicely, i’m not sure, let you decide. and his response was: HAR?

Har simi har?

sigh… i dislike such drivers. what’s wrong with the passengers not knowing their way? as long as the drivers know their way, can liao mah. by telling you we dunno the way, we actually risk having you take advantage of the situation and drive us around in circles. so when we tell you we dunno, we are being frank and trusting, not trying to be funny. why can’t you just accept it and drive?

and there are other things lar, and i saw a cockroach in his cab!

anyway… unhappy things aside, finally met up with jackie (thankfully less than 5 min late), had lunch and then went to buy baby gifts and tonic for the mummy before taking another cab to mount alvernia.

it’s been a long time since i last saw yuling. she hasn’t changed much! even with pregnancy, she didn’t put on much weight – lucky her! she told us of her quick and non-eventful delivery. it was so smooth for her! such envy… i did take pictures of raeann, such a sweet little chubby girl. with really pinkish cheeks, looking so much like yuling. wanted to post the picture up but i realized i have not asked yuling’s permission. better not – should let yuling share the joy with the world herself.

saw cynthia too! she also hasn’t changed one bit! looks the same and is the same chirpy quirky her. so bubbly. she kept saying that i’ve met her once in the past 5 years or so, but i just can’t recall. so strange. haha…

actually both yuling and cynthia were very close friends of mine during my sec sch days. it’s a true pity that i lost them after that. one of my regrets in life. now, i’m thankful that blogging has brought yuling and myself a teeny weeny bit closer. at least we know what’s happening in each other’s life.

after mount alvernia, i went to changi hospital. koh mum is hospitalized because she couldn’t breathe well and the polyclinic suspects she may be having a heart attack. spent several hours there catching up with the sisters. thankfully mum is alright – just need to run some tests to confirm she’s fine.

throughout the whole day, i didn’t meet up with dearest. and seriously, i was in a pretty foul mood. i dunno. not seeing dearest makes me feel…. vulnerable? but then dearest came to the hospital to send me home. and listened to my endless chatter about yuling’s delivery and the strange cab driver. that’s my darling… always there for me.

i miss you dearest. we’ll spend time together tomorrow ok. love you lots.

and yuling: congratulations! whenever you have time, keep us updated on Raeann’s development! and pictures pictures! want to see beautiful Raeann!
