Mothering Corner

Most Thai ladies I know care a lot about their skin. You can easily see how crowded a skin clinic is, some for ache or others for whitening and botox. Mind you, I was told to get botox jab too but I didn’t do it. I was too scared for needles. LOL!

Anyway, I was there for IPL, and I haven’t been back for months again. Sigh…I signed up a package last week but I haven’t even started yet! Luckily, my skin is alright, even though it’s not porcelain smooth, but at least I don’t have to check out proactive review to deal with ache or other skin problem. All I have is spots! Blame it on all the outdoor activities and sunbathing I used to have.

We didn’t have plans to go anywhere this week because most places are fully booked and we didn’t plan well ahead. Anyway, it’s all about whom we are with this special season, instead of where we are. We might just have a small celebration among ourselves, with some friends at barbecue. We might annoy some neighbors with karaoke and tune the home speakers to the max until midnight, so someone better invites the neighbors too. LOL!

Happy New Year folks. May the year 2011 bring us lots of happiness, great healthy, good luck and prosperity.

I thought I was late in getting Christmas presents ready, but when I was shopping the other day, the mall was pretty packed with last minute shoppers like yours truly here and the gift wrapping counter had such a long queue! Luckily, they practiced a ticket system, so I could just leave my gifts there for wrapping and continue to check out other stuffs.

Too bad I didn’t have time to shop for shoes womens, the year end sales are quite a bargain now.

I’m not one of those who set up yearly resolutions but I know what I want in my life. Some may not be able to be achieve in a year, but so far so good, I’ve got attained some of the goals I wish for in my life. Nonetheless, there are more to go!

Since I’m not one of those who’s born with a silver spoon in my mouth, and furthermore I’m not married to one which a silver spoon neither *slap head*, we have to work our ways to ensure a better living and for our kids’ future. Maybe they won’t be provided with “silver Tiffany utensils” either, but we will try our best as parents.

Mmm…maybe I do have a resolution. Work harder on my biz!

Yeap, I’m back from Chiangmai and got back to work with a blur brain, exhausted body and 2 kg extra somewhere in my thighs or tummy. Still no bento for today because I was too tired to fix anything fancy. My kids went to school with fruits bentos, which was everything I had left in the fridge. Gosh, I should be coming back feeling rejuvenated instead of someone who’s experiencing extenze side effects. It must be the crazy “party” we had on the last night in Chiangmai. Let’s just say that BIL has something in his iPhone that he “threatens” to upload to Facebook, and I swear that I will k*** him if he does.

Anyway, that was the crazy side of me, which has long time “dead” especially since I got married and became a mother. But then again, we had a great time with the kids and colleagues in Chiangmai. Hope to do this again next year.

I prefer to print out most work related document for my own filing and reference, instead of looking over the soft copies of all the folders in my laptop. Call me old fashioned and not environmentally friendly, but without these papers, I will be wasting time checking through the files.

Nonetheless, I try my best to print only in black and white, even if some product files will look better with colors. The admin clerk hardly replaces the color cartridge, even if she can just order one from inkcartridges.org. Some times, the colors don’t come out exactly as they should! LOL!

That’s why my sales personnel prefer to use the laser in another sales office room. The printing quality defers a lot!

I found my dream house but we can’t afford it! It’s located at the area which I really like, and it’s very spacious. If I would to get my parents to move over here in the future, I surely need to find a bigger house. The only problem is the pricing, it’s soooo expensive, I would have to write millions of tonalin cla review to afford the down payment. LOL!

Actually, houses in Bangkok are not cheap. We might be able to afford condominium but I prefer a landed property, even if it can’t be bought under a foreigner’s name.

It’s sad that my metabolism gets slower as I age. I lost some weight when I was sick, and I easily gain all back in a few days. OMG…I will surely need hgh supplements one day unless I watch my diet and EXERCISE. That’s something I never do since I moved to Bangkok.

Thank god I didn’t join any gym membership, if not it will be a total waste paying for the monthly fee.

After 2 and a half year in Bangkok, we finally thought of getting our house here. It will be hard, since it’s under company’s name and I’m not sure how long will it take for all the documents and loan to be approved, but we shall start house hunting. Maybe we won’t get it so soon, and the process of getting one might take years.

Anyway, it’s fun checking out show houses. The houses are so tastefully decorated, I don’t think I can do this on my own. Definitely can’t have more space and I might end up with tv mounts if I am doing the interior design! Nonetheless, getting an interior designer can be very costly, so I won’t consider about this yet.

Let us look around and see if we can find a house which fits our budget, and located in the area of our choice first.

I’m feeling much better now, and thanks for your kind comments.

As much as I wanted to rest and skip work when I was sick, but I could not afford to do it. There is a lot of things to be done at work, and I still have to take care of the kids. Nonetheless, I have slowly recovered, and I’m almost back to my good old self!

I have to stay fit again because there are a lot of celebrations in the coming weeks such as birthdays, anniversaries, Loy Khatong, Christmas, and etc. I wish that I have the time for a year end vacation to celebrate all these joyous occasions, but hubby can’t take leave until next April!

Nonetheless, we managed to plan a trip to Chiangmai again, and the kids are excited about it. There is something about this place that my kids love a lot, maybe it’s the zoo, night safari, nice boutique hotels and etc. As much as I would love to purchase flights to cut short on traveling time, but we are going there in vans, with all our company staffs. Yes, it’s a company trip!

So, mommy has to stay fit and healthy, and so do the buds!
