I am tired of...

...rushing down to house to wait for contractor to rectify prob every alternate days...
...spending the sunday/saturday tuition-ing (even tho i do get some $$)... i'm getting more impatient nowadays...
...confirming details w external parties...
...cleaning and mopping the super big and empty house...
... measuring & recording the dimensions for items & kiv before double confirming... gg back to the place to get again...
...reading online for info and i get so stressed w info overload what to do, what not to do and wats good... i am pantang coz i would rather believe than regret in future. so i do my own research.
...waking up at 6/7/8 every morn w/o roti-prata-ing on bed...
... sourcing for the best deal for tv and fridge and fan...
... feeling guilty for every single cent spent. whether m i splurging on unnec things. do i really need it? can i save the $$ for the house? for my parents? or just save for rainy days. where has my $$ gone to??

now my travelling is basically amk --> bishan --> woodlands --> yck --> sbw --> amk... argghh.. i dun even hv time to go shopping for anything. i dun even hv time to watch a movie. i dun even hv time to go to my yrly lantern fest. the house, the wedding prep, the marking have all ripped out my 24 hrs... i am officially tired.

... i also cant rem what i have been doing for the past few weeks/months... everything seems like a whirlpool.. seconds n minutes ticking by, days and nitez slipping away... in addedum, the marking load roarRRR~

i m an organised person. Super organised. i hate JIT. i dun like to rush and i cant function well under stressful conditions. i like to plan ahead, in mindmap word doc, in checklist format, in excel file and even in hard copies (which i own more than 2 notebooks, 1 organiser & 1 diary to simply record dimensions & model numbers & impt info which keeps changing every few days). even if it means duplication. i hate uncertainty. i hate to be in doubt.

its so exhausting.. its so tired preparing for wedding & house. but i am not at all slim down!! WHY???!!

can i ever go back to the past to be the carefree girl?? maybe i shd hire a wedding planner. when ple envy u, they dun see the pain and sweat behind the scene.. i am officially tired.

good nitez.

Reno is 99% done!

Upon entering the house in the evening, u will see this: yeah, tts my favourite Miffy's corner after removing the sliding door & adding a platform to it =D.

Dearest Ger Ger & Boon: Wishing you both a blissful ever-after and hopefully come back w a made-in-swiss baby boon =D

random tots...

As our lives get more inter-twined, conflicts bound to increase. And!!! moo moo has her own moo moo life n hyper-active behaviour while bear bear has another set of bearish principles and hibernating habits. So in order to lead a blissful life (happily ever after... for a lifetime of about 50-60 years...) bear and moo must assimilate into a (balanced) bear-moo life in order to live in peace and harmony =D

We are in it tog.. and our little steps to nest building may be tough.. but we see it conceptualising day-by-day and its our house filled with urs n my deep love~ \(^-^)/

p.s. thanxie papa mama for driving us ard today to move the items over! muacks~

on a darker note... the kids are still writing rubbish! Note: never mark any of ur kids' assignments at 1am late at nite.. u will be too traumatised to koonz soundly.. bahhhhhhhhhhhhhh~ but i have to... coz i think i cant fin my marking... on time... baaahhhhhhh~
