Back from Penang

Hi Ho~~

Returned safe and sound from Penang. Traveling during pregnancy was indeed a privilege.  LOL. Upon mentioning I was 7 months, I was given front row seats from Jetstar. Great. I did not have to walk all the way back to the plane. :)

Flight journey itself was generally ok. I was lucky that there were no air turbulences. I couldn't imagine if my heartburn acting up when there's one~! Anyway, it was about an hour's flight and all I could feel for any discomfort was a little backache. Not serious problem though.

As usual, when we touched down, we had lots of food. I was so so afraid that I will put on more weight~! Up to date, I gained approximately 9kg. Still within the acceptable weight, I know.. but seeing those figures going up... I know how girls feel now. LOL.

So so, the most meaningful thing that we did, was to spend our first christmas overseas, and with the little one inside me. :) We don't usually celebrate xmas as well as giving each other presents... but this year I wanted a gift from dearie.. and thus I chose sunglasses. I wanted at least with a little branding and not those cheapo ones that I previously got (which got scratches easily and fragile too). However, choosing one was not easy. I didnt have any idea what I wanted, what type I like and what suits me. We both got fed-up and nearly gave up having a xmas gift for this year. It was a little disappointing.. but I got to accept. We don't want to do some impulse purchase.

Thus we decided to head back and wanted do some research online before we hit those optical shops again. Coincidentally, we mentioned that we wanted to get sunglasses to dearie's mum and she said that she had a lot of unused ones she bought from US last time. So, there's no harm in seeing her loots and trying them on for a better idea on which type suits me... and upon reaching home, MIL laid out all her brand new branded sunglasses.... and I found one~~! MIL wanted to give me that since she dont wear sunglasses now, but dearie and I had agreed on paying a nominal sum for it. The original price was not cheap~~ the most expensive one I chose from her collection.

So, this is my new pair of sunglasses. LV evidence. :)

Hooked.

Alright, first post from my new laptop~~ Thanks to my dearie for signing up the starhub fiber services so that I can change my laptop within a year. LOL. I don't really have an issue with my previous laptop... just that this new ASUS is touch screen and uses windows 8. 喜新厌旧 bah~~ anyway, my not-so-old laptop will be handed over to my father-in-law.... so no wastage. :)

Ok, back to the main topic. Hooked. Recently hubby and I are hooked to a game on iphone. Zookeeper battle. It's a game that is similar to bejewel, but you will not be challenging yourself to break high scores. Instead, you have a life bar and for each "bursting" of the animals, you will gain either attack or defense.. and ultimately, aim to "kill" your opponent. Your opponent will be any random player from around the world. A screen shot of the game...

Every week there will have some competitions where you can earn rewards to "upgrade" your character's appearance. Sounds lame.. but this game got us hooked on. So every evening when we get home, we will be getting all ready to start our games.... and it has too, become our bedtime game. It's probably unhealthy, but then I think that this game actually bonds dear and I. LOL. Common goals, common interests. :)

Right now, I'm aiming for the 100 wins (just 7 more wins to go according to this screen) to get a background upgrade for my character. LOL. To get the Xmas tree deco, I have to be the top 10000 players, which is tough. But I'll keep trying til the dead line~!
