Congrats Peishan!!!

our dear dear sandra is.. is... is..... Preggie!!!!! i'm so excited and happy for her. she actually told me when she just found out... but i didnt dare announce it for her... kekeke... until she gave me the green light. met up with her last week.. and her little tummy is already showing.. 4 months already!! my goodness... so exciting..

seems like its the latest trend to get preggie.. coz a lot of those around me are either getting preggie, or giving birth, i've lost count of how many baby's 1st month celebration i've attended, and how many congrats wishes i've sent out. its almost becoming like...

me: hey, long time no see, how have u been?
fren A: oh, i'm fine... by the way, i just got pregnant.

fren B: lets meet up for drinks and gathering
me: oh sure, where and wat time? shall we go clubbing? drinkin?
fren B: ermm cant drink and cant stay too late hor, oh ya, by the way, i'm pregnant.

fren C: hey, did u hear? fren X just got pregnant.

fren D: the whole neighbourhood is pregnant.

ermm... ok, i'm not trying to sound negative.. preggie is a good thing, i'm just amused tat how suddenly so many ppl can get preggie at the same time? hahaha...

even the boy's elder bro.. his baby just celebrated her 1st month. and i'm pressured by his 30 over family members... with the constant... "aiyo, see the baby so cute.. whens urs?" and "hey, u still no news? better hurry". duhz... i love babies... but all these constant naggings r starting to turn me off. and now, even my mum has started.. "eh, when ur turn huh?" the ultimate? i've started to get emails asking when is fibi junior coming.... arghhh...

as for the boy's frens, we just attended 2 of his good fren's baby celebrations. and while having fun at a ktv session, another of his fren said, btw, my wife's preggie. faint... after tat.. the boy told me.."wah, a bit stress liao lei.. all my frens having baby lei, left us.. how ah?" i could only reply "so?".

ok ok... dun worry, we've been having talks and plans. but it'll only happen after i've had enough fun and rest. we r both so tired from work now... add another baby.. it'll burn our pockets and kill us. but, i also do not want to wait till i'm too old to have junior.. still need energy to run after little monsters. kekeke... maybe next year or next next? i'm anticipating too. hee...

wat i hate is.. gahmen says "go forth, reproduce". local company says, "go forth, reproduce, and dun come back". thou my company often say, "we pro gahmen one, gahmen say good to reproduce, go ahead lor". and den they pile u with lotsa work. and hint tat if u go maternity, its ok, it really ok, just 4 long months, dun worry la, we think of how to manage when u preggie, go lor, u go lor... and den they give a eerie laugh...

even if they really fine with ur maternity leave... but the work is so busy, and u r always kept at work late till nite... how to take care of baby? if there r frequent meetings and events tat lasts till late... would u even think of having a baby? pro gahmen? my arse.

oh ya, i dun understand those parents who give birth den puts the baby at the parent's place, and they continue to be busy at work. den y have baby in the 1st place? just to carry on ur name? the baby is a human being, not a name-carrying object. if u cant take care or love them, its better to hug ur work till old. dun ruin a person's life. its ok to work, but constant neglect causes resentment... and when they become rebellious, u scold and punish... its too late. i told the boy, if we were to be weekend parents, we might as well not have babies.. coz we already have didi and jiejie whom we see every weekend, and they r already almost like our kids. no difference. if i could only see my kids once in a while, i'll kill myself. or rather, not have them in the 1st place.

i dunno if i can be a good parent. but i'll try all i can not to be a bad one. heh.
