So you guys felt the tremors a few nights ago? (Yeah, I know this entry is as stale as last month's masak lemak. But who cares, no?)
I was at home, awaken from my early slumber. Around midnight-ish, decided to tune in to 'Queer Eyes'. The guys were hilarious as usual but I must've seen their 'crookedness' to much as I suddenly felt myself slightly slanted. Unexpectedly, I was swaying a bit to my left.. then a bit to my right. I was thinking like,
"Whoaa.. Junior's kicking me that much, huh?" But then I caught sight of the water-filter stand next to my tv set and noticed the water in its clear container quavering. This is one weird imagination.. I must really be tired. I squinted to check the waters again. I wanted to get up and see it closer but fearing the earth might just swallow me (yeah, like it couldn't swallow me while I was sitting there on my fat-ass) if I stood, I remained seated. Yup, it really was trembling, swaying left and right. In fact, the whole
house was moving, albeit slightly. Should I wake the others? Neah.. I'm too paranoid to stand up, let alone walk the entire hallway.
Then a few minutes later, 'junior' stop kicking, or rather I wasn't swaying anymore. The water stopped moving and all the Queer guys seemed straight. It was only 2-3 minutes but long enough to make me realise how awful the state of our earth is right now (of course I only confirmed it was a tremor resulting from our neighbour's earthquake that following morning). Then it dawned to me, man.. Junior's gonna be born in this end of days huh? Poor kid. Eh, wait a minute, that's
my kid I'm talking about! Poor momma too.
---------------
In other unrelated news, I can't seem to fit in my kain kurungs anymore. Nor could I fit in my jeans or other pants. I don't look as swelling as other pregnant women but in my birthday suit, I can see my bulge. Hehe. It's pretty amazing knowing that in there, a new life is forming.
I seriously need to start shopping. I keep on wearing the same things to work and that's only because they have rubber bands. Hubby has already bought me this expendable long skirt and one very cool 'kangaroo' pants. These two items are the coolest things I've ever seen, then again, this is my first time pregnant. The 'kangaroo' pants actually has a pouch that expands as my tummy grows bigger in time. Pretty cool, eh? (Yes, one more 'cool' in my sentence, then I'm sad). But it aint so cool (huhu) to my wallet. Never did I realise how expensive maternity wears are. And this doesn't even include Junior's cot, stroller, sling bag, clothes, milk, food, diapers etc. You really need to be financially able. I totally agree with my friends who wait a few years before having a baby.. but since my time came first, though unplanned, I'm embracing it as I go along. Hopefully things won't be too bad.
My next trip to ModernMum is today after work. Hehe. No sen osso, stylo maintain eh? Later guys.

i didn't feel anything during the quake... and when the alarm went off i thought it was just another fire drill so i just continued sleeping the whole way... then i learnt the next morning that the police had actually given orders that no one was to be in the hostel until crisis over. fuuh.. lucky me nothing happened.
in unrelated comment, COOL!!! :) |
