Good baby!

After more than two weeks of precautions, it's follow up time to the gynea.
And great news, all placenta is now located above the baby-sac.
Hoorayyy!!

My dearest baby has helped push the placenta "tail" upwards.
Alhamdulillah.
Good baby!

But of course, still need to pray a lot because the womb is like a pool area where the baby-sac and placenta can swim around happily.. hehe..

Jar of Hearts

I've been meaning to google about this song for the past few weeks, but was kept busy lately.
Finally, after much listening to it on air whilst on my way to/ fro work, now I know who's the powerful voice belongs to.
The music arrangements are almost to nothing.
The strength of this song completely depending on Christina Perri's voice.
Although I do think the video clip is partially scary with the sort of life sucking vampire thingy.
Anyway, enjoy!

(JAR OF HEARTS by CHRISTINA PERRI)

I know I can't take one more step towards you
Cause all that's waiting is regret
And don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore?
You lost the love I loved the most

I learned to live, half-alive
And now you want me one more time

And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart

You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

I've learned to live, half-alive
Now you want me one more time

Who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart

You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

Dear, it took so long
Just to feel alright
Remember how to put back
The light in my eyes

I wish I had missed
The first time that we kissed
'Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back you don't get to get me back

Who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart

You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart

You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?

Beautiful date, beautiful day

So many people got married on this day.
So many gorgeous children were born on this day.
So many other human being around the world set up events just so to commemorate this date.
But as for me, it was totally unplanned.

(pics googled from the net)

It all began last Wednesday, 9th November 2011.
It was Amin's report card day.
The day where every parents heart skipped a beat.
All in all, it was the day where excitement, meet anger, meet upset, meet happy.

As we sat in suspense in front of Miss Siti, Amin's class teacher, she placed the performance summary in front of us, and said:
"Congratulations, Amin got first in class"

I almost fell down the chair with my eyes scrambling for the class achievement remarks, and said:
"Whaaaatttttt?" (with an unbelievable tone)

Hubby turned the paper towards himself.
I bet he was as surprised, too.

Then Miss Siti took out the invitation paper, for the Achievement Award Day, dated 11th Nov 2011.

So that's how it all began.
And here we were.
At the school's hall.
I forced hubby to dress up for the big day.
And intended to put some make-up on myself.
But decided not to, in case I might end up crying of joy, and splattered the mascara all over my face.
Lipstick will suffice, then.

Amin took home two awards; first place in class and best achiever in English subject.

No doubt, I was the happiest amongst all.
The headaches, panic attack, turning the house into a war zone, now all paid off.
To be honest, I wasn't putting any expectations for him to beat the rest.
Not at all wanting to compare him with other kids.
All I wanted was for him to be smart in study and do his best for himself.

I was not an achiever during my time either.
But I managed to get good grades, constantly.
And that was enough for my parents.
Don't get me wrong, I have no intention of bragging about my son (nor myself) here.
This blog is for me to keep my memories alive.

And Amin, mommy wants you to know that mommy is very proud of you.
And surprised too that you actually are smart indeed.. haha..
And as promised, your ninjago as the high achievement award presents.

And yes, if you keep up the excellent achievement next year, mommy promise that more presents will come your way!
Just say it, and you'll get it!

Chuck is back !!

Yeayyyyyy!!
My man is back for Season 5!
None other than, Zachary Levi, of course.

 

I was totally waiting for the new season, because the last thing that happened during Season 4 finale, was that Morgan downloaded the intersect into his head, and survived.

Hence, it is expected that Morgan to be the hero in this fifth season.

Totally liking the new Sarah Walker hairdo.

Simply stunning and sexy.

But somehow I was a bit disappointed with this premier episode.

I hate the new plot of the bad guy which unlike the usual world-domination, this time it is to make sure Chuck fails in everything.

Sigh.. 

So, where's the fun in that?

You know how I love Chuck.

How can I ever watch something with evil scheme to bring him down.

Bummer.. now I'm not looking forward anymore to the next episode.

Hate this evil plot!

Wordless Wednesday : Playing dress up !

Low Lying Placenta

So now we know why I bleed almost once in two weeks.
Went to Prof Siti this afternoon, and she discovered that a portion of my placenta actually lying below the sac.

I have been bleeding quite regularly during this pregnancy.
It's like I can easily bleed after a 4 hours traveling back to hometown..
After taking the staircase to 2 floors down from my office just because I hate waiting for the lift..
Even after a weekend of window shopping, walking around the mall with hubby and kids!

Although I'm already at 16 weeks, Prof said that I have to be extra careful.
It's not in the placenta previa stage yet, because my placenta is not all located at the bottom.
Mostly is above the baby-sac, but they're like partially circling the sac at the moment.
Like a "C" shape.
Prof called the lower part of the placenta, the "tail" and that's what's currently placed below the baby-sac.
And that "tail" may have been the cause for the regular bleeding.
I didn't bleed excessively, just a spot or two or three, of fresh red blood.

Prof said that there's no medicine to push it up.
No massage allowed either.
Just pray, pray and pray that it'll go up and the baby sac helps push it up too as it grows.

As for now, no heavy lifting.
No going up and down the stairs even for just one floor.
And no window shopping around the mall to my heart's content.
Unless if hubby willing to push me with the wheelchair, that is.. hehe..

Johnny's worst role ever

The Tourist.
What more can I say?
Such a waste of film.
Anybody, just any other actor can pull this role.
I'd say this is by far wasting Johnny Depp's time and talent!
Yeah, so he got paid by acting, but shessshh.. what made him this desperate?
He has always picked the most creative roles of all time, and this just doesn't make the cut at all.

The pout-lipped Angelina Jolie noticeably looks healthy in this film, unlike in Wanted, but that's not the point.
I'm not sure if it is her being naturally 'cold' or that was what her role supposed to be.
But in the end, this film could freeze you to death because Johnny was not at all hot either.

Ok, so there were some twist here and there and the plot was something to be proud of.
But in the end, no press nor film critics could even confirm whether this was a drama or a comedy genre.
Johnny's attempt to be funny, just not funny at all.

Hmm..
Well, for what it's worth, at least you get the gawk at the beautiful Paris and enchanting Venice scenes.

A (sexy) manly reminder.. oh la laaaa..

Sounds (looks) kinky?
Not really.
Look at this as another approach in educating the women.
Yes, us, women.
What about?
Well, Breast Cancer, of course!

There has been several deaths this year, of those whom I personally knew, which related to breast cancer.
Although non were blood related to me, (and I am very much grateful to know that genetically I am free of cancer) all were shocking news, as they discovered at the critical cancer stage.
What happened to the curable 1st and 2nd stage?
My medical insurance covers for mammogram and pap smear screenings only at the age of 40 and above.
Forty years old?
Oh come on!
With this current lifestyle, unhealthy food, polluted air and water, don't cha think we need to revise that?
Early detection is crucial now.
We can't wait till 40, anymore.

And thanks to this video, which I can guarantee, us, women will gladly takes matters into our own hands.
Ohh laa laaaaa.. enjoy!
