Today morning, a colleague from another department called my department, exclaiming in excitement "Shannon gave birth? Boy or Girl?!"
(Well, she was anxious because she was just telling me yesterday afternoon; "aiyah, dun get so worked up by silly ppl, else later baby 'pops' out earlier arr")
Err, and I was there, sitting right in front of my colleague!!!! :D
How did this confusion come about you ask.....
Well, you see, it's 28th April today, and my due date supposed to be on 28th May.... Oh, and they even put in that I was given 3 months maternity leave!!! WOW! Can I carry this forward to next month ar? hehehe.... *Wink*
NOTE: NO NO NO!!! For those that don't get the joke, NO I AM NOT ON MATERNITY LEAVE YET!!!!!!! I think HR just accidentally played a prank on me! :D

I've been getting a lot of request from friends, asking for my wish list for BB's arrival present... And seriously, if I'd really tell you my wish list, would you REALLY get it for me? Well, not much, maybe just a Honda Civic 2.0??????? :D *silly grin*
Well, to be truthful (really this time, no silly joke), I HAVE NO IDEA watsoever, on what's really needed, and what I can wish for, for BB to receive. So to make things easy, for those that really insist on getting pressies for BB, here's 2 lists that could be helpful : 1 being things we've already gotten for BB, and another, things that we wouldn't need. :)
Things We've Already Bought/Have/Received:
1) Baby cots (Yes, with an 'S')
2) Sufficient number of feeding bottles and pacifiers
3) 0-3 months clothings
4) Diapers
Things We Don't Need/Don't Plan to Use:
1) Baby cradle
2) Thermal Bags - for feeding bottles
There! Err, I've cracked 2 heads (mine and hubby's) to come up with the list, though I think it's pretty useless... hahaha.... Trust me, it's really because I HAVE NO IDEA AT ALL.... :D
I'll add items to the list as and when I think of it... ;)

Scenario : It's a nice relaxing sunday morning, and you are out taking a morning walk with your gf/bf/spouse (strike out the irrelevant). By nature, you'd just hold each others hands while walking, and enjoying the morning breeze, nicely chatting when you are suddenly stopped by a policeman:
Police: Mana IC (Where's your Identification Card)?
You & Partner: Err, wait. (Stumbling in your wallet to retrieve your IC for him, while wondering what offense have you done)
Police: Apa buat pagi pagi Ahad? (What you doing early Sunday morning)
You & Partner: Saje, jalan jalan. (Just strolling)
Police: Tak boleh ni (Cannot like this). (Scribbling something, while checking on your
ICs)
You & Partner: Apa salah kami? (What offense have we committed?)
Police: Nah, ambik ni!! (Nah, take this) (Passing you the fine and your ICs back)
And then, you read that you are both now being fined for HOLDING HANDS!
WTF right? This is outrageous (I FEEL LAR). What is wrong with holding hands in public? Do you EVER see the act of holding hands as disturbing? OR OR, does it even suggest any sexual act? OOHHH... my bf just held my hands, he wants sex tonite? HOW, HOW HOW HOW, does this ppl even categorise holding hands as something obscene?? Please do enlighten me on this topic. How could fining people for holding hands or kissing in public do any good?
If I would really want to be naughty in public, I can not hold hands and not kiss and still do many other obscene things lar! These people that came up with this ruling, must be some jealous prick, that feel the pain in the heart when they see happy couples holding hands while walking in the street, how else would that simple act be disturbing?? I DON'T SEE THE LOGIC! Anyone care to show me some light on this one????

Last Saturday (8/4/2006), when hubby and I were on our way home, we saw a kid (probably about 9 years old), strolling in the middle of the road. I'm not sure what made us turn back to take another peak, when we realise that he didn't seem normal, and saw the dangerous way of him crossing the road, which made us follow him for a while.
At that time, I was pretty shaken, not knowing what can be done, thinking that police wouldn't really bother about us if we reported, as we don't know anything about the kid. He does seem to know his direction, but we decided to trail him further, taking a closer look. Then we realised he was barefooted, and talking and smiling away to himself while he walked.
We did end up calling the police, and by the time we were done, we lost track of the kid. Asked and hunted around before we found him again. Called the police again but no sign of any patrol car. The kid then walked into Giant Hypermarket, which was when hubby went down on foot to trail him, afraid that we will lose him again. When I called the police station to inform them of our current location, I would have to admit, I was a little dissapointed, that he told me he have no idea when the patrol car will come. I was starting to question whether are they telling the truth about sending a patrol car or not, when I finally saw one passing me. I really do have to apologize for my lack of trust to our security forces, when they ARE starting to show some improvement, my thousand apology!
Hubby did call to say that the kid is now sitting in Pizza Hut, and the Pizza's staff gave the kid a personal pan when the kid went in and kept repeating "Pizza, Pizza". It is nice to see that sometimes, no matter how bad our society has become, there are still MANY good people around. Well, back to the kid story, when hubby saw the police approaching, he called for the kid to come over, BUT, ending up making the kid run away and hide. The police finally got the guards in the hypermarket to help search for the kid.
While waiting outside with the polices, we were told that this is the 3rd time this kid has ran away from his 'Special School' where he live, some 2km away from where we were. It is shocking to know that the school, knowing that the kid has a tendency to escape like this, not putting in more effort to stop it from happening, and I still do feel uneasy, when I think of how dangerous the kid was, roaming around in the middle of the night.
I pray that he won't be running away from the school again like this, and he'd be in safe hands that will take good care of him. I hope even if he DO wander off like this again, that no speeding cars will be around, and he'll be safe and sound until found and returned to the school.

My department has this internal calendar to track all staff's 'activities', and I just happened to come across something that strike me as funny. It looks weird, actually... HeHeHe

I WAS SO PISSED OFF!!!!!!
Let me start from the beginning.... I was nicely driving down Kesas Highway, heading home alone as hubby had to stay late, was at the speed limit, 90km/h, and not even on the fastest lane! (I was driving on the middle lane)... Nicely listening to my radio when I saw from the rear view mirror, this medium sized lorry came tearing down the highway like he's running from a police chase (OK, that was exaggerated). He was driving towards me, speeding definitely, and there were no cars on either side of me. GUESS WHAT! He chose to drive up close to my back, and 'stick' to me, like there's probably about 0.5 meter distance between us, and flashed to ask me to move aside!
NOTE: I'd have to admit that I was being a stubborn driver too at that point, but WHAT THE FUCK! I was at the speed limit, in the MIDDLE lane, and if you really want to go faster, over take me!! There's no cars on either side, NONE, NADDA, ZIPP!!!!
So, I stayed at my lane, and stared at the lights of the lorry through the rear view, and guess what, he came nearer, and flashed a few more times, but I being stubborn, stayed on... And slowed down, I don't want him hitting me! THAT $##%^$#!!! So, he was probably trailing me for a minute or so, continuosly flashing, until I got SO fedup, I let go of the accelerator, trying to get him off my back... When he decided to cut into the left lane to overtake me, I (yeah yeah, I was mean, VERY mean) stepped on the accelerator and got back to my 90 km/h speed.
That %$#%$ then decided to swirve back out to the middle lane, trailing me, slowed down a little to show me his %$#&%$ middle finger, and stuck to my back, even closer than ever... If only I was driving a bulldozer at that time, he's probably on the front page of today's paper 'Lady Driver Pissed from Being Trailed - Made a Pancake out of Lorry Driver' article!!! So I stepped on my brake a little, and he cut out to the fastest lane. I shouldn't have done all that, driving alone and being pregnant, but when he passed, I stared at him, and guess what. That IDIOT, while parallel to me, tried to cut back into the middle lane to 'squeeze' me off it... So I hit on the honk and he went off, I wish I could shoot him dead!!!! GGRRRR!!!!!!!
WHY?! WHY?! WHY?!!!! Why is there so many idiotic drivers out there on the road (well, if I hear you say I am also one, being stubborn and all, I admit, but if he was nice in the start, I would have been nice!!).. All these road bullies, and they call themselves civilised?! MY FOOT! HMPH!! I'm PISSED!!!!!! I hope he get a puncture with no spare, stranded in the middle of the highway at 3am! BUA HA HA!!!!!
YEAH! I'm mean... VERY mean..... X-(
