Very frustrated that we cannot buy new HDB.....due to the stupid ceiling stuff...
The income ceiling has been there for almost 14 years liao!!!!
What are all these govt/HDB pple doing???
Cost of public housing has increased by so much since 14 years ago...
Couple earning S$8000 and less can afford to finance a flat that is costing around S$700,000 meh???? Unless they have very good papa bank or mama bank to help.....
Pple like us in the middle income group is like 不上不下... cannot buy new flat, and cannot afford pre-owned flat due to the very high price above valuation.... unless we want to settle for those ulu ulu 鸟不生蛋 area like Juring extension, etc...arrrrgh.....
And the govt was assuming that we should be able to buy pte housing...which has total area of 98m2, and is selling at 1 million dollars...arrrgh......
为什么不让我们中多多....... arrrgh.......
Think is the the general feelings of the middle income family..... :'(

恭喜发财! Happy 牛 Year!
Here's wishing everybody a Happy 牛 Year!
Today is the first day of work for me after CNY, and chu8 is supposed to be a good day to start work...
Was reading in the newspaper this morning, which mentioned that the last time market situation was bad was in 1997...12 years ago......and was also supposed to be a Happy 牛 Year!
This 牛 year started off with various companies across the world announcing retrenchment, brankrupcy, and Qimonda has also announce for insolvency..which has turned in bankruptcy too today.....
According to the astrology book that i bought, this is supposed to be a good year for me...and that i'll travel a lot this year. If this is true, then i'm really looking for ward to it....but that would also means that there'll be a big hole in my pcoket.....
My DS and DD are supposed to 犯太岁 this year.... hopefully the year won't be too bad for them this year....
Well....I can only hope for the best for everybody, to have good health, and be 开开心心 this year..
HUAT AH!! .... aka.... 发啊!

Mini Me
Was looking at the photos of my little girl tat i took when i let her try on the new dress tat the wife of a nice colleague made.....
...so pretty... :D
...general feedback from the others are " Oh....mini Mommy....."

HAppy New YEar! It's 2009!!
So....i've started my year lazing around at home.. :p
No need to go back to office yet due to shutdown :s
.....arrrgh..... din want to face the tons of clothes that is piling up in the carboard....
as expected...after the long holiday, DD refuse to go to school, and make a scene outside the school screaming.. 'I want to go homeeeee......'
DS seems to have gotten used to go to school...hee.....
This year, i've signed up GUG for DD....but think she felt quite bored on the first lesson as i think she may be one of the older kids in the class :p ... let's see how she'll behave next week....
also...hopefully DS has come to terms that he'll need to attend the class at ICR..... with or without tears :p.... but he was doing quite well yesterday, and even say that the teacher praise him for good reading...hope that will keep him motivated to attend the classes....
I am now thinking if i should also sign him up with Kumon for maths....arrrgh......i've become a kiasu mum... :(

Looking Back 2008
So we're coming to the end of year 2008...let's look back and see what i can say....
Few items/events that are significant to me are :
Jordan :
Think he has become more matured
I felt bad for neglecting him sometime. :p
He has improved alot in terms of words recognition, both for Mandarin and English
He started to attend I Can Read and Kindergolf
Bought him a junior golf set for xmax tis year...hope his interest can maintain :)
His caring character is also more obvious now :)
Tat day, his grany was having kneecap ache, and when he saw that she has difficulty walking, he immediately went over to help her....how heart warming ... :)
Jaelyn :
Attended Playgroup in August...and follow by many days of MC and small incidents, .... trap her fingers in shower screen, knock her head on wall corner, pnuemoia and hospitalization.... HFMD last week....overall..think this is not a good health year for her....hope will be better next year.....
Daddy dress her up with superman pyjamas, and she started to pose some typical poses for us...so cute...
I wonder if we are sometimes more bias towards her than Kor Kor :p
Daddy :
Swtich Job again : From Pioneer to Christie
Overall better pay, but I think he's not as happy as he was in Pioneer, due, i think, to the more family oriented atmosphere in pioneer....
Bought a putter for dear hubby as Xmas present :)
Me :
Most unforgetable moments : at the highest point ( tat i can reach) on 万里长城，居庸关
Saddess events : Li Yean leaving IFX, SIN; Bemmer leaving IFX; CAM breakups; Dad's health issue
Mixed feelings about joining MC, and moving out offically of 168 Kallang Way, after 15 years, 6 months :'(
Overwhelm by China Olympic Opening Ceremony (中国人，真行！） - although it was immediately followed by news of lip sync, pre-recorded images, etc....
I've completed 14.5 hrs as parent volunteer in SAJS...but think we'll send the kids to Hong Wen Primary instead :p
New Year Resolution :
Spent more time with Jordan
Toilet train Jaelyn
Work to improve relationship with family :))
Wat i look forward to next year :
- LV trip
- Germany trip
- hope to go to Japan again :p
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!!
Bye Bye 2008
