Hurricane Kyle Heading Towards The Maritimes

Filed under: Weather, Random Ranting, This Town - Mama BoK @ 12:08 am

Yes..! and that means.. it is heading towards us. 5 yrs ago.. we had Hurricane Juan that hit Halifax really hard.. but it missed us.. so we were quite safe here in Y-Town. Usually if anything were to happen with the weather.. we don’t get hit as hard as Halifax does. But that does not mean that we ain’t gonna be prepared for it though. So today.. we will be heading out to get groceries .. that we usually leave till Sunday to do. If you don’t see me online it means.. we either lost power.. or Aliant just suxs.. big time.. !

After The Operation

Filed under: Health, Amusing/Musing, Useful Links 101, Beauty - Mama BoK @ 6:21 pm

Maybe it’s me.. or maybe it’s just my imagination but i feel like i’m putting on weight awfully easy after the operation. For those who are not aware of this.. i had just gone thru’ a huge operation about 3 months ago.. and another emergency one 10 days after my first operation for a hysterectomy and removing my 3kg fibroids. I never used to be able to put on more weight.. no matter how much i eat.. for the fibroids were already making me “look” fat.. but now that the fibroids are finally removed, it sure looked like i am putting on weight. Better look into getting some weight loss pill, for i ain’t gonna wanna look like the average Canadians here.

The Justice Center

Filed under: Random Ranting, This Town, Useful Links 101 - Mama BoK @ 6:20 pm

Everyday I pass by the Justice Center of this town on the way to work .. and each time, i cannot helped by snide at it. The unveiling of the plan for this new $10.5 million justice center was in March 2006. 2 yrs later, saw an increased of another $7 million towards the center… and till today .. Sept 2008, the building is still under construction. I snide because if it had been in Asia.. we would have a few hotels up and running by now.. AND MAKING MONEY and at a much largerr scale than this Justice Center. I bet this shows you how work is done here and how efficient people are here. But wait a minute, maybe they need some industrial knobs but don’t know where to find them…?? muahahhaha!!

Pictures Of Singaporean Nude Blogger, Sun Tan

Filed under: Blog News, Amusing/Musing, Entertainment/Movie Review - Mama BoK @ 9:36 am

Being a Singaporean but living overseas makes me a lot more aware of what is going on back home. Afterall, I don’t want to miss any CPF top up right..?? No way..!! if the government was giving out money, I’m getting it for sure.. and that’s my rights.. since i’m a Singaporean.. albeit one living abroad. And yes.. ! i do miss home.. and donch ask me again. If i can take the next flight home.. i would and will .. INSTANTLY.

Anyhow, coming back to Sun Tan, the nude blogger with the blog named “Sextisy” is currently the hottest news in town i heard. A girlfriend shared with me some of the published pictures on The New Paper, Singapore most circulated daily newspaper and with 4 million folks in Singapore.. i bet .. Sun Tan is getting some unwanted attention ..?? or i could be wrong.. she might be basking in delight.

All the pictures and videos that i’ve seen online were those that saw her enjoying every bit of the exhibitionist in her. Of course, the guy in the pictures with her.. is so Ah Beng..!! look at the shirt he was wearing..!! *faint*. Lesson to be learned here.. and I’ll have to make sure i tell my kid when she is old enough.. and the babysitter.. never EVER take nude pictures with your boyfriend.. who may turn out to be an evil ex-b/f. Below is a letter supposedly from Sun Tan to Gutteruncensored. She sounds pathetic alright.. and yer think GutterUncensored is gonna stop posting her pictures..?? think about it again.. g/f..!

I’m very sorry you had to go through a confusing situation whereby you received both a tipoff and a request to remove post, all from the same email account. The person who tipped you off is not me.
Clearly someone out there is determined to bring total destruction to me and his/her aim has been achieved. I’m in complete devastation now. Emotionally and mentally really very traumatized. Everything is in ruins for me and my life is over. I am sure that person/ those people know about this and they are feeling extremely pleased now.
My reaction to seek the authorities for help is purely out of loss, not aiming to retaliate. None of this was anything that I wanted. I never meant for anything like this to happen. I agree that you are every bit indemnified as you have stated and basically, you are the only who can propagate or check the news.
Hence, it wasn’t my intention to aggravate you or the matter. I’m genuinely intent on beseeching you to have the post removed, rather to get to the root of the matter. I am equally as confused as you are regarding conflicting emails from this email account. I’m more so distraught as the moment you received the tipoff marked the beginning of the great collapse for me and my life is in shambles now. For all the anger, annoyance and confusion you are/have experienced, I apologize.
I sincerely hope you will stop the pursuit of anything related the issue of suntan. The last thread of my sanity depends on the matter being dropped.
Please, stop.

1st Parents & Teachers Meet

Filed under: Brat Stuff, Amusing/Musing, The Other Half, This Town, School - Mama BoK @ 9:04 am

Photobucket

Already..?? i hear yer saying.. muahhaha!! yes.. ! already..!! it’s to meet Chloe’s other teachers and the school staff .. plus also to get an idea of what the teacher is doing in class. Certainly different from my time in school.. where teachers and parents meet is all about us being bad.. and our parents being called to the principal office.

My thoughts about the educational system in Canada as compared to Singapore..?? I really think here is a lot more relaxed and I can see Chloe’s teacher trying her very best to help with every single student. Unlike back home, I think I would have had to get a tuition teacher for Chloe right now. Her teacher had also mentioned that Chloe fine motor skills needed help and Chloe will be in a small group just for that. I knew this was gonna happened because Chloe being the youngest in class and we don’t really allowed her to play with cutting and scissors because in the store, I sometimes cannot keep an eye on her.. if she played in her play area. But I’m happy to report I’m quite pleased with what I saw but I’m still a wee bit apprehensive about the “french” thingie. But if i learned so many languages in Singapore, I’m quite sure she can cope with French no..??

Healthy Mums, Happy Kids

Filed under: Health, Family/From the Heart, Useful Links 101 - Mama BoK @ 5:20 pm

For those who have been following my blog since Chloe was born, you will know the recent surgeries that I have gone through and how much I yearn to do more with my 4.5 yrs old. As all mummies would know, keeping up with a 4.5 yrs old is not easy and a mom who doesn’t have enough energy or who isn’t well, now that can create a very emotional and guilt ridden mom like yours truly.

Keeping healthy for yourselves first and also for the family is very important and if nutritional supplements can help then I say go for it. I myself can attest to getting lots of help from these supplements but of course I choose affordable and reliable sources for my supplements. Choice Nutritionals not only offers quality vitamins, minerals and other nutritional supplements from various reputable brands, they also carry organic skin care and personal care products. Look forward to a very personalized service where they believe in building a good repertoire with their customers. Competitive prices and free shipping on purchases above $50. You know we love free shipping!!!

Chloe Was Ill

Chloe had been sick for 2 days now.. but today she started feeling better. I’ll have to say that I raised a really thoughtful kid.. because she said to PB and I.. that she didn’t wanna kiss us.. because she didn’t wanna get us sick.. the first day .. when she had a fever. And even though she was sick.. she wasn’t fussy or anything.. just rested alot.. on her couch.. and watching lots of Simpsons. She ate only soup and crackers yesterday and today. But this evening.. she had some noodles. And yes, we kept her home, no need to pass it to other kids eh.

Wanna Stuff A Dead Body In My Basement

Filed under: Amusing/Musing, The Other Half - Mama BoK @ 6:15 pm

The man brought home this a few nights ago from the store. He bought it from a kid that had come in like maybe.. half a dozen time trying to sell it. From $200 to $160 … that was what the kid wanted. But finally after a week, PB got it for $150.

Photobucket

Well, anyhow.. the nite he bought it back, he had it sitting on the dining table.. and guess what.. ?? i didn’t even noticed it. .nor see it. Until the next day, in the evening.. when he wanted to get it out to test it, then did he asked me .. ” you didn’t noticed this eh..?? ” So yes..! if you stuff a dead body in my basement.. i probably wouldn’t know about it till it stinks. As long as it doesn’t stinks.. the dead body is safe in my basement.. mauahhahaha!!

Photobucket

He wants this for his basement.

An Acura For A Second Car

Filed under: Amusing/Musing, The Other Half, Motor, Useful Links 101 - Mama BoK @ 5:03 pm

By now you all know I have been actively looking for a second car for our household since our lil’ brat is in school and it sorta sux not to be able to pick her up from school since we only have one car and I can’t drive a standard. I see a need for a second car because it would make it so convenient instead of depending on PB to close the store and send us home each evening at 5pm. Plus as the kid grows older I’m sure she would have other activities like swimming, ballet and other extra-curricular events she would want to attend. Currently we have the babysitter to help out in case of emergencies but when she goes to college next year then we will be quite handicapped.

The car connection gave a detailed review of the Acura from information gathered from other reviews. With this combined information by testing the cars for themselves, they presented their own findings. They listed their likes and dislikes and what they ultimately think of the car. Of course they also include photo galleries to let you view the car first hand. You should probably also check out the unbiased reviews from the consumers on various makes of cars. And when you are ready, you can arrange for a test drive or get a quote online as well. Compare your local price quotes and get the best price without having to run around. No stress, no fuss.. just the way I like it.

The Four Episode 1

Filed under: Amusing/Musing, Useful Links 101, Entertainment/Movie Review - Mama BoK @ 4:26 pm

Watching The Four Episode 1 right now. Even though I am not too much into the olden days kinda series.. I am watching it because Raymond from Moonlight Resonance is in it. But truth be told hor.. i think i might just like this better than Last One Standing. I find Last One Standing too violent for my taste… but I may change my mind later.. eh. Afterall, I’m a woman.. and it’s our right to be fickle - minded.. muahahhaha!! Anyhow, if you wanna watch .. just hop over to my entertainment blog lah..! No downloads, just watch directly.. I don’t believe in downloads, so long lah .. waiting time.. and then some more gotta download don’t know what drivers.. wow..!!! darn headache..!! i just wanna watch the show..!!! my links that i found .. are so easy peasy.. even my 4.5 yrs old.. know how to click on it.. and watch..!! donch believe.. wait.. i take pictures of her doing it.. and show you eh.

Last One Standing

Filed under: Amusing/Musing, Entertainment/Movie Review - Mama BoK @ 3:57 pm

I’ve just finished watching Episode 1 of Last One Standing .. and it’s pretty good .. if not better than Moonlight Resonance. But I don’t understand the mother of this show..!! Anyhow, I’m sure you all want to watch it too .. for yourself. So hop over to my entertainment blog for the LINK and watch directly. But i feel it is quite violent.. from the very beginning . .not very suitable for very young kids.

First School Trip To Apple Farm

Filed under: Brat Stuff, Amusing/Musing, School - Mama BoK @ 9:39 am

Photobucket

Chloe went for her first class trip already.. !! last week on a Wednesday. Of course, yours truly played chaperon ..!!! afterall, it was her first ever trip in an “autobus” school bus in french, so like any good parents.. we went along. But we let her go on the autobus on her own… we followed behind. Mostly, because i just had an operation, so not ready to take a class trip on a school bus.

Photobucket

I’ll have to say.. that most of the parents went.. and you can see that these parents are like myself.. very anxious and caring parents.. just like myself. I also noticed that quite a few of the mummies are working moms.. who had taken time off to go along.

Photobucket

Apple farm owner .. Andy Wallace (we know him for a long time) .. explaining about the apples and taking his time.. to walk around the farm with all the classes. I’ll have to say.. that the Apple farms owners.. are the best.. this is a free trip.. the apples the kids picked.. didn’t cost us.. or the school any money.

Photobucket

Even though it is called an Apple Farm, Wallace Apples & Nursery has more than just apples. Pear is also one of their major seller, with grapes and plums.

Photobucket

Alot of walking that day.. but it was good exercise for all of us. I had two kids to chaperon.. one was a cute little girl called Tylesha and another i cannot put the name up here.. because his parents may sue me for $40K.. muahahhaha!!! yes you guess right.. !!!

Photobucket

Apples..!! Apples..!! Apples..!!

Photobucket

Apples fresh from the tree picked by Chloe.

Photobucket

Chloe taking a class picture and eating a cookie before going back to school. Overall, we had a very great trip. The teachers did a great job.. and i can see that my daughter is going to be well taught by her teacher.

This is Natalie from Seattle, Washington. In May, 2005, Natalie arrived from USA, a gift from blogging friend, Stef - a Singaporean married to an American. If you are wondering about Mrs Tweetyblog, this was the blog i started at blogspot when i first started blogging.. but had to shut down because of my chicken shit neighbour. Long story but if you want to hear about it, let me know.

Fast forward 3 years, Chloe is still playing with Natalie .. and carries her around. In the last few years, we’ve been blessed and touched by so many kind and generous people on the blogosphere. I cannot thank all of you for your gifts, kindness, kind words and taking an interest in our life. Thank you all for being a friend and thank you for reading everyday.

Cadillac Pt 2

Filed under: Amusing/Musing, Motor, Shopping - Mama BoK @ 2:37 pm

A month ago I wrote about how the Cadillac reminds me of my grampie’s car and I remembered how much he used to praise his Caddy and boast that it was the most reliable car he ever owned. And since I’ve got to get a 2nd car because the kid is in school now and it’s better for me to drive her to school instead of getting PB to do it.. for sometimes it can get busy at the store, we decided to take a peek at what models the Cadillacs can offer me today. I have to say I was quite impressed with used Cadillacs Harrisburg PA, the car models included the DeVille, DTS, Escalade, CTS, STS, SRX, XLR and others.

But I’m fussy and I’m looking for a special type of car that doesn’t need a lot of gas, is good on mileage and is affordable. And what I hate most about going to look for a car is when the sales person talks down to you or makes you feel like you don’t know a thing about cars. For those staying around the Harrisburg, PA area you are lucky because the sales people there are experienced and will never make you feel small. You’ll be completely satisfied and informed about your car. And if you are anything like me, we like to go to the people who treats us well.

Personalized Music & Books For Kids

Like any parents I am sure you only want to buy things for your child no matter how old they are, gifts that can help them with their development and also nurture them. Whether it is to stimulate them mentally or physically, we want to choose carefully and make sure that she/he benefits from it. I am not any different from the other mummies out there and personalized gifts for children from KidsMusicBoxCD.com are what I find to be the best thing any parents can buy for their kids. These personalized music cds and story books are pretty unique and very affordable. I find that Chloe responded to music, rhymes and story books better when they shout out her name during stories and songs.

You can choose from soothing lullabies to entertaining sports CDs and many different stories to integrate your kid’s name into the lyrics or story line. I noticed the delightful squeal when Chloe first heard her name in a story and the name of the town she lived in and they get to hear it as many as 98 times in a song or book. It’s wholesome and your kids learn from it, plus you can even ask to print their name on the label and leave a special message from the giver. Designed for kids age 1 - 14, I say start them young and help them learn to love reading and singing. Great gifts from Grammie, Grampie and even Godma..!

I Bathed My Brat For The First Time !

Filed under: Health, Brat Stuff, Amusing/Musing - Mama BoK @ 12:16 am

Photobucket

It had been more than 1.5 yrs since i last bathed my brat .. and last nite .. i bathed my brat for the first time. It was a wonderful feeling!! even though i’m not fully recovered .. i still wanted to do it.. so that PB don’t have to close shop early to come home to do it. I don’t have Keegan on Wednesdays and Thursdays .. because she is back in school .. and truth be told.. i can’t wait till i am fully recovered to do that things i had been doing for her since she was a baby. 1.5yrs ago.. my fibroids grew so huge.. that i cannot bend over the tub. .to bath chloe nor carry her. So i’m really glad i went for the operation. I wrote an update on my health blog for those who are interested.

And my biggest reward after bathing her last nite ..?? she turned around .. after she had her milk to say this to me.. ” I love you mama ..! yer the best mom in the world..!” .. i was absolutely touched.. beyond words. I’ve always known that Chloe is way mature for her age .. and she always seems to say and do the most appropriate things at the most appropriate times. Of course .. she can be a brat too.. if she wants.. but she is really, really 80% an angel.

Chloe & Mama’s Home Made Beef Stew

Filed under: Food Review, Brat Stuff, Amusing/Musing, Family/From the Heart - Mama BoK @ 10:29 am

Photobucket

A staunch believer of teaching them young, I try to let Chloe helped in housework.. cooking and even cutting of corns when i am cooking. It is actually so much fun.. seeing her so enthusiastic in helping. .and doing it right. It need not be a big thing, it can be just anything any mummy wanna do with their kid. It certainly makes her feel really good about herself.. that she helped me.

Photobucket

As you can see .. she is helping me dry up the potatoes and carrots.. and that itself to me.. is awesome. I like having her do stuff with me. Earlier on.. i had to do dishes.. so i let her wash her bottles, just by her scrubbing them with bubbles. She didn’t really washed it.. but you get what i mean eh.

Photobucket

There you go, here’s our pot of home made beef stew in slow cooker .. all ready to eat . .and for lunch the next day. And yes.. i let her put in the onion mix.. and turn on the tap for me.. to boil water.. and let her close the lid and turn on the slow cooker. And she was an awesome helper..! Teach them young. .and you will never have problems.. making them do stuff at home.. that was what my grandmother said.

But actually i can’t wait to see her lose everything.. and more. Hhahaha!! i’m beginning to sound as evil as her. Here I am watching Moonlight Resonance and wondering if there is really such a person .. like Ah Hong and if there is.. i really don’t wanna be near her.. she is EVIL..!! well .. go by my Entertainment blog and find the link. What i liked about it most is no need for downloads.. or any wait, just so straightforward.. and watch it immediately. Awesome!!

Apple Farm Update

I will be updating the trip to the apple farm with Chloe and being chaperon for her class but guess who they paired me with..?? muahahahha!! you can never guessed..!! I had so much fun, you would be proud of me.. if you knew how much i was walking. I genuinely loved kids.. and some i acutally watched them grow up .. while i stay rooted in this community. Certain things i’m not happy about the town, but what can you do right. I hope that the new Mayor would do something about having a drug treatment center or a better psychiatrist ward because a drug rehab will benefit the town.. but not a new municipality building.

Trip To Montreal Into Cash

Last week, we told you about winning a trip to Montreal right..? Anyhow.. PB decided that it wouldn’t really worked out for us.. because Chloe is in school right now..and we can’t just take off anytime soon. Plus we do have a business to run as well and there is no one to do the technical stuff.. that we seems to be getting more each day ( i ain’t complaining). So we accepted an alternative prize .. and that was for a cash prize of $1,000. So here it is.. our winning from the boys and girls club .. and we have sherry to thank this for.. for it was a Christmas gift from her. Thank you Sherry..!

Pictures Crazy Mom Needs Printer

Filed under: Brat Stuff, Amusing/Musing, Useful Links 101, Shopping - Mama BoK @ 10:19 pm

Photobucket

2nd day at school this week. Told yer I was a picture crazy mom.

I used to own a 35mm camera but ever since giving birth to my lil’ brat, PB invested in a digital camera. Now that was some 4.5 yrs ago and we never looked back. The amount of photos that I had taken of Chloe and everything around me, since I need to send pictures home and to relatives, godma and grandparents included, is massive. I sometimes spend hours in a photo shop at our local mall, just to print out pictures to send out to various friends and family for special occasions. But you can imagine the crowd and the wait.. and the “I feel so bad for keeping you in line” during the festive seasons when everyone wants to do the same for their loved ones. This year, the man & I decided that we should invest in a new printer, something like an HP LaserJet 4000 (c4118a) because then we wouldn’t have to waste time waiting in lines and driving to the mall just to print out all those photos. With a good printer in our own store (we own our own business), we can even offer this additional service to our customer/s.

As always, we’ve done our little research, went to look at the printers physically and this is what we concluded. The HP LaserJet 4000 is not only the latest in printing technology it also offers enhanced quality for great pictures thus printing out smooth photo-like images. It can also print up to 17 pages per minute. While other machines take a long time just to start up, the HP LaserJet is quite fast and only takes 17 seconds to get ready, so whether we use it for the customers or ourselves, it’s efficient. It has a great print resolution thus making it great for photo printing (meaning for photo crazy moms like me). The printer tray is easy to maneuver and can hold up to 500 sheets and the memory is expandable from 4MB to 100MB. It also has an option for ethernet connections and uses a parallel connection making it compatible with most OS’s. Most importantly it is quite affordable, not more than $120 if you know where to get it. I’ll say get it if you are like me, who loves picture taking and have family and loved ones to keep in touch with.

And this is the printer [(HP LaserJet 4000 (c4118a)] we wanna get.

An Old Mummy To A Young Child

Like my mother-in-law said.. “yer no spring chicken yer know!” and so very true. At 43 yrs of age, definitely by no means a spring chicken. But i’m a spring, spring chicken when it comes to mothering.. and know hows of bringing up a young kid. There are alot of things I still don’t know and don’t know if i am doing it right but as you all know i’m no angel and yes, i do raise my voice at the brat .. albeit not often (enough). But still, i want to do my best for her, whether it’s health or school and just about everything like all you wonderful mummies out there.

Photobucket

So here’s a little insight of how i feel as a mum of a kid who is 4 yrs 8 months old and first time in school. No pre-school, no day care, no kindergarten for the last 4.5 yrs, this is absolutely the first time, she is away from home for 6hrs on her own. For a child who don’t even stay at Grammie’s house when we are not there or go to the candy store with her babysitter who had been babysitting her for more than 6 months then, i would have to say, I’m darn proud of her.

Photobucket

How I feel after a week..?? i still feel a little lost on Friday after we sent her to school and she hugged us and all. If i could, i wanna keep her with me.. all the time or just for another year. But i know she is ready to learn new stuff and make new friends and for me to deprive her of it, it wouldn’t be fair. Every morning, when i see her put away her bookbag, her lunch and take off her jacket and walked into class, i wanna cry. It’s all so overwhelming…! sad and happy at the same time. Worry, anxious & pleased all at once, so hard to explain and so hard to describe. But I know i have to learn to let go even though i still wait anxiously for 2.15pm to come and to pick her up from school. Does it get any easier after 7 days..?? not at all, every morning, i have to put up a brave front for her, so she doesn’t see me sad or crying. But Chloe and I will get there together eh…??

The Man Said My Esthetician Is Hot!

Filed under: Amusing/Musing, The Other Half, This Town - Mama BoK @ 12:48 am

Yup..!! the man said my aesthetician was hot..!! We had a customer that was in the other day.. and we were yakking about how he never had any luck with girls. So i had asked him.. what type of gals was his kind, in which he replied.. he really can’t tell. I told him to give me an example.. in which he replied.. she had to be HOT..!! ok..! men here are not so hot.. but yet want HOT girlfriends..!! got meaning or not..??

We had named a few girls in town.. to make comparison… and PB chipped in to say that my aesthetician was hot..!!! Wah Lau..!! i thought the man didn’t have roving eyes.. now we know.. the true color eh..!!! Werewolf on the prowl..!! muahahahaha!!! What would you do.. if your spouse tells you .. your aesthetician was hot..?? smack him on his head..?? or kick him outta bed..and ask him to sleep in the bath tub..?? Pray tell..!! gotta give him some kinda punishment right..??

I Need A Botox!

Filed under: Health, Amusing/Musing, The Other Half, Useful Links 101, Beauty - Mama BoK @ 9:55 pm

I kid you not! Every morning when we are sending our kid to school and I flip open the car’s mirror and put on my lipstick, I cannot help but think how saggy my face skin looks compared to when i was in my 20s. I still don’t look old but you can definitely see that sagging facial skin and there itself you can’t lie anymore. Every time, I would use my fingers to lift both sides of my face to see how it looked when I was 15 yrs younger, and of course feel a wee bit regretful about the droopy looking skin on my face.

I’m considering botox because it is non-surgical, although it is not permanent, it helps decrease the signs of aging and gives a little lift each time, helping it last a little longer. But for those looking for a more permanent solution, Eastcoast residents can look for Dr Porter from Chevy Chase to help them refresh, rejuvenate and to renew their confidence. If you need a nose job, look for rhinoplasty Washington DC all the information you need is there.

Basement Update

We are really forward to getting our basement all renovated and insulated before winter this year. There is just so much potential for our basement .. since it is the size of our house itself. So whenever we go shopping like we did today.. we look out for stuff that we could use in our basement when it is completed. At wicker emporium there were some very lovely candle stand at $16.99 that i was tempted to by and we are looking out for a TV wall mount for a tv for the brat in her corner at the basement.

Toning My Tummy

Filed under: Health, Useful Links 101, Beauty - Mama BoK @ 9:03 am

For years I haven’t been exercising and my excuse was my fibroids. Now my complaint is the weather (too cold). But truth be told, looking after a kid full time (even though she started school a week ago) and helping the man with the store, cooking two meals, washing dishes and bottles and cleaning up the house just a bit, there is very little I want to do at the end of the day but turn into a couch potato.

After my recent surgeries to remove those humongous fibroids I know I can’t blame that flabby looking tummy on the fibroids any more. Having said that, it sure doesn’t make it any easier to get up and jump around and do some aerobics, crunches or sit ups. But I heard that by using a Flex Belt one can tone, firm and strengthen those stomach muscles just by slipping them on for 30 minutes a day. This Flex Belt is the only abdominal toning system cleared by the FDA and clinically proven to see results.

It works by stimulating the nerves that make your muscles contract and relax, thus targeting all the muscles in your abdomen and giving you the most effective abdominal workout that no other product has been able to achieve. With a 60 day refund policy and a 2 year warranty on the Flex Belt, I could slip it on for 30 minutes a day while I am doing dishes and folding my laundry. I’ll be dangerous for once with a flat and toned tummy.

5 Days Progress

5 days into school.. and she is able to write her own name. Well.. not like she doesn’t know.. but she never got her alphabets correct either. And we.. we never pushed her, slacker parents…? a little. But tonite.. she took out the pen and started writing.. without any prompting. Clearly, she is learning alot, i think the school is doing a great job.. so is her teacher. The brat sings in french.. and love her hopping game… gone to the library and borrowed a book already. Had gym class..and loved gym.. ! had music class.. and love her mustache music teacher. I’m just glad we are not having such a hard time.. with her going to school nor.. else it would be really heartbreaking for me. For a social butterfly like the brat, she sure cannot remember alot of names of her friends.

I Can Vote !!!

I’ve been in Yarmouth for almost 8 yrs now but like any expatriate, you don’t really feel that here is home (if you know what i mean). 8 yrs to-date.. i’ve yet to really feel like this is home. Home is Singapore.. the other side of the world. Truth be told, had i known that winter was this hard.. and medical care suxs.. plus doing business here can be not so fun… dealing with employees and customers, i wouldn’t have come.

I don’t regret coming else i wouldn’t have had my daughter because i really didn’t want to have a kid with anyone else. I don’t regret coming because the man is very accommodating and the in-laws, they are very indulging. They pretty much let me do what i want… and at times.. go crazy..! hence the “crazy chinese woman’s” name came about.

This year in October, there are several elections going on in this town, the Town councils and the Mayor. This year.. i’m also able to vote.. because i’m eligible to. Do i feel like i belong here..?? Mmmmm.. not really .. but it’s getting there. And yes..! this year i’m gonna vote.. come hail storm or flood or whatever.. i’m gonna vote. Why..?? because this town needs a change, it cannot get any worst. I can VOTE..!! and i’m gonna exercise it..!! woohoo..!!! The crazy chinese woman is OFFICIAL now..!

Right Dealer For Right Car

Filed under: Motor, Useful Links 101 - Mama BoK @ 10:47 pm

I’ve always believed that the person who sells us anything, the sales rep and the company combined, plays a very important part in what we are buying or whether the deal will be sealed. Be it a piece of cake or piece of furniture, or of course your car, you want to know that they will stand behind their product and will help you if you encounter any problems.

I hear that your friendly Nissan Dealer MA is the kind of dealer that I would buy my second car from. They have been in this business for a long time, since 1933 in fact, and are committed to providing you value for money along with affordable, no hassle financing for your used and new cars. With a great selection of used Nissan cars, trucks and SUVs I’m sure you and I can find something that could fit our budgets. This Framingham Nissan dealership is a straightforward and no gimmick kind of dealership that is good to deal with, look at their no nonsense yet hilarious video clip on their website to see what I mean. I bet they have nice people who can make a deal with you today.

If you live anywhere near Natick, Malboro, Milford, Needham, Wellesley, MA and are looking for a used or new car, don’t forget to drop by the Framingham Nissan Dealership first. I love their mission statement! I try and use it all the time at our store too, kinda copycat but what can I do when I want to be the best in what I do eh?

This is the 5th day of school.. and i think she did better than yesterday. Yes.. !! she was sulky a little this morning.. but she was alright. Kept saying she was gonna miss us… but still showing off her library book for the camera. It was cold this morning, so she was wearing a heavier jacket. I think she is gonna get better each day.. and give her another week, she will be a pro. Her teacher said she was a social butterfly this morning.

What Do You Do When Your Kid Don’t Wanna Go to School..??

So yes..! here we are.. discussing the same issue. So what do you do when you kid say she/he doesn’t wanna go to school..?? and crying a wee bit.. and also hugging you .. and telling you she only wants to go to school.. after so many days.. with her fingers. And since 10 fingers wasn’t enough to show how many days..she had to show it a few times.

First thing first.. DON’T BE A B.I.T.C.H to your spouse .. like i was…!! i screamed at PB .. for being so nonchalant about it.. and so relaxed..!!!!! that drove me NUTS..! i hear yer saying .. “we would too” .. muahhaha!! “high five ladies..! ” Now this was on Saturday nite. Come Sunday afternoon.. PB already managed to convince the brat to go to school.. by explaining things to her.. and playing with her for 2 hrs.

So don’t panic.. it will work out.. and i read from the experts.. that we SHOULDN’T (SORRY TYPO NOT SHOULD HOR!) say stuff like “the cops will come get you” or “mama will go to jail” and do not bribe them either. Having said that.. rewarding them..is another thing eh. Well.. that was my 2 cents worth.. for parenting 101 - for first time mother with children going to school.

Filed under: Brat Stuff, Amusing/Musing, Family/From the Heart, The Other Half - Mama BoK @ 1:00 am

Sorry, I haven’t updated on Chloe’s schooling stuff, that is because we had to deal with her not wanting to go to school no more .. after coming home on Friday. On Saturday morning onwards.. she kept saying she didn’t wanna go to school. We threatened .. we cajoled.. we did everything.. or rather I did everything. Yes.. finally even looking up on the internet to see what to do .. that was after midnite on Saturday.. Sunday morning.. plus screaming at PB too.

Yes.. yes..!! i’m an ultra B.I.T.C.H. But mummies around the world will understand.. sympathize and know exactly where i’m coming from. .and where i’m going from here. I panicked..!! of course..!! why wouldn’t I . .afterall, i am but a woman right..?? The man was the calm one.. and of course .. he got the brat to say she wanted to go to school on Sunday.. thus making me a liar..!!

I even went to the extend of emailing her teacher.. to give her a heads up..on what she was to expect on Monday morning. Picture a screaming kid.. and not letting go of her mama .. and puke and snort.. and fiery red face. You get the picture eh. But her teacher was really awesome..!! she replied.. albeit late.. but still she was there Monday morning.. to hold Chloe’s hand and brought her into class. Yes..! all went well.. “phew” ..! and chicken shit neighbour selling shit on Facebook.. but that’s for another story . and another day.

Today marks the 2nd day of real school for Chloe. Bear in mind, we had never put her into any other classes, daycare or even playgroup before. But this morning, because it was a different routine in school, unlike her “ready, set, go” program, she started crying when she had to line up and go into class on her own. We did stay abit more.. gave her some more hugs and all.. but i saw her still sobbing when we left.

I know that this is a growing process and we all go thru’ it. I still remembered my days during kindy.. but i survived right..?? so will my brat.

Usually i get a muffin along.. but since my operation.. and i lost my huge tummy.. i figured i shouldn’t be eating too much.. else i might need some weight loss pills. When the gals at our regular coffee shop asked if i needed something else besides coffee.. i had jokingly said.. “nah.. else the man would say i’m fat” .. and they looked absolutely shocked. Muahahah!! they were too kind.. because in Asia.. i would be considered “fat”.

We met her french teacher .. and looks young. That’s good.. because then she would have all the energy to keep up with the kids. Chloe’s class is small. .only 13 today. So i’m happy i chose her school instead of the other one.

Subaru, An Old Friend

Filed under: The Other Half, Motor, Useful Links 101, Shopping - Mama BoK @ 8:04 pm

Subaru is an old friend. The ones I grew up with were very small and squarish. When anyone talked about a Subaru car three things came to mind - small, Japanese and affordable. But that’s not always the case anymore, in fact the new Subaru DC shop has models that cater to just about anyone from all walks of life. Whether you are a sporty type, a housewife ferrying your kids to school or just someone who needs to get to work and back, they have a model to fit your needs.

I’m sure you know that your Subaru cars are manufactured by Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. of Japan and if you are in the Washington, DC area, you are in luck because any Subaru Vehicle model you need can be found at FitzWay. In most cases at a discounted price too. There will be absolutely no need for any haggling because every vehicle is already discounted.

And you are always welcome to go test drive, compare prices and talk freely to the friendly and knowledgeable sales representatives without any obligation or pressure to buy. The new Subaru Legacy has never looked better. The new Subaru can be bought and viewed at White Flint Subaru in Rockville or at Gaithersburg Subaru.

French Immersion School

Photobucket

Yes..! tomorrow is the official day that Chloe goes to her French Immersion School. This is not kindergarten .. but grade primary school… meaning.. it is real school hor. .. and not play school. We decided to put her in French Immersion.. because PB and I feel that in Canada.. if you don’t speak in French .. you will lose out.. when you try to get a government job in the future. Plus her grandmother and babysitter, Keegan are both French.. we definitely see a plus in putting her in French Immersion.

I am both excited.. yet worried a wee bit. But i know this kid of mine.. is gonna do good. She just takes in everything like a sponge. PB of course can’t wait for her to go to school.. so that he can get some time to do his own stuff.. instead of just revolving around the kid.

I cannot believed that she is already old enough to go to school. It is almost like not long ago.. we still had to carry her everywhere.. and now.. she is going to school. Boy..!! they do grow up to quick. In the blink of an eye.. she would be in University. I hope those who’ve walked with me.. thru’ my journey of raising Chloe would continue to do so and watch my kid grow up with me.

Why Is My Husband Different From Yours..?

Filed under: Amusing/Musing, The Other Half - Mama BoK @ 11:52 pm

My girlfriends from home asked me this all the time. My blogging friends.. also asked me this all the time. Of course, there are some who donch believe that PB does alot of housework.. if not more than 50% but if you know me well enough .. you will know that i’m not boasting. I have my MIL who will gladly come online to confirm it.. and of course.. a good blogging buddy who would also come online to tell you the same. So what is my secret..??

Rule #1 - Do not be hero. Let the man help .. even if it it the smallest most insignificant matter.

Rule #2 - Never tell your man, he didn’t do it right ..or that he didn’t do it well. If he wipe the table and still got rice .. never mind. Donch lah .. sweat the small stuff.. just pick up the rice quietly .. and throw it away.

Rule #3 - Always praise the man.. even though you may not think it is necessary.. IT IS..!! in front of your kids.. or even his friends and family.

Always got plans.. let him know in advance .. what you want done .. donch expect him to know when and what he has to do. Men are like kindergarten children.. and sometimes.. need their hands to be held.. and constantly reminded.. in a very nice way. You don’t wanna hurt his feelings.. or make him feel small. His ego very important.

Please feel free to add on .. what you think will make the man in your life different. Cheerio..!

This is Katelynn’s new pink guitar.. that she had been saving for .. for about 6 months now. This girl has got so many guitars.. at her home.. it’s crazy..! Katelynn brings many hours of fun.. not only to Chloe.. but to me. She reminds me of the kinda life.. i wanna have.. if i can turn the clock back. Carefree, loved.. and definitely smart… this gal is. She has her life all mapped out. This year is Keegan’s last year in High School.. then she will be heading to PEI for nursing school. I’m just glad she is no longer with her ex… she deserved better.

There are some crazy things Keegan does.. like eating bad food .. from her car.. because they were doing a “Truth or Dare” with her buddies. Yup..!! she did just that and puked..! big time..!

We were at Wendy’s on Sunday.. having a quick lunch.. since it was already 3.30pm .. and we didn’t go to Grammie’s house.. since we had errands to run and had to work on Monday. Chloe was all prim and proper .. as you can see here.. and trust me.. i never taught her how to sit this way. She must have learned it from Keegan her babysitter. But yes.. throughout the meal.. she was sitting like that … and only after she finished .. then she wanted to get up .. and walked around the fast food restaurant.

Saying no to PB .. when he wanted her to have a bite of his burger.

Mobile Phone Lookup

Filed under: Business/Career, Useful Links 101 - Mama BoK @ 9:05 pm

I’ve had a mobile phone for as long as I can remember but I always miss calls because the phone is in my handbag since I don’t have enough hands to carry it when I am out with my kid. And since I’m very selective about who I return my calls to, I find reverse mobile phone lookup tools to be very useful. Simply punch in the number that appears on your mobile phone and find out exactly who was calling at the time. It is very handy too if you have a lot of boyfriends I suppose.

Happy Labor Day & Happy Merdeka Day

Filed under: Amusing/Musing, Family/From the Heart, Around The World - Mama BoK @ 5:10 pm

Yes..! it’s labor day here.. and in the States too. Plus it’s Merdeka Day in Malaysia. As for Singapore .. Labor Day is first of May if i remembered correctly. But i’m sure I’m the only one working. Yes.. ! the boss is a slave driver..!! he wants to open the store today.. ! but it had been like that.. since he had the store.. as long as there is a holiday.. he is opened.

Happy Labor day to all.. !! and Happy Merdeka Day to all my malaysian friends and bloggers. I hope you had some family time.. and lots of good eats.

Summer Is Over

For those who think that we are still having summer here.. then you are wrong. Summer is long over here. It’s cold in the mornings.. and in the evenings .. it’s worst..! Time to hang up the man’s cap and bring out the winter stuff.
