It has been a long week. The washing machine broke down and I had to manually wash the clothes and it was really exhausting just wringing dry the individual pieces.
I really wonder how people in the past were able to do such washing on a daily basis. Well I guess there were lesser distractions last time as there was no internet.
It would definitely be this baby- Volkswagen Golf GTI. The price of this car here in Singapore is absolutely ridiculous- SGD $200K (USD $165,ooo). However I can foresee that I won’t be able to drive it on a regular basis as there is no way I can fit all the kids and their car seats inside.

It would certainly have been the time that I was in high school. I went on a date with a guy from music camp and he spent the whole lunch date (2hours )talking about religion and trying quoting passages from the bible as reference. No doubt I do believe that there is a GOD and am a Christian but talking about scripture during a date is a real turn off for me. Since then I make sure I screen the guys that I go out with to see that there is no “hidden conversion agenda”.

5. If you were going to fashion a “Wanted” Ad for a best friend, how would you word it?
Wanted- Kid loving, understanding and thoughtful.
I recenltly found another meme through the blogs that I read in my Google reader and decided to join along.
1. I love to be able to travel to Germany or even Korea this year but it’s hard to say given the tight schedule we have this year.
2. Nothing can get to you if you have the right attitude and a smile.

4. If you have any negative or nasty words/gossip don’t tell me! (I’m not interested to know.)

6. I have never seen any spring peepers before. Have you? I heard that it was some sort of a frog.
7 And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to not waking up so early tomorrow , tomorrow my plans include settling the renovation works for our kitchen and Sunday, I want to go shopping for new makeup!

Hmm I’m not sure. I guess just being able to be fair to my children while they do things I remember when I was a child and saw waht I would do.
ALoha!

@JamericanSpice,
It’s never easy being fair to the kids.. I too find it difficult at times especially when I find myself leaning toward being more slack with the younger kids as compared to the older ones.

This is going to be a corny answer, but my greatest achievement was giving birth to my little miracle girl!

@Stacy,
that’s really a great achievement. I know it’s certainly not easy to give birth to kids. We had a hard time before our #1 came along.
