This girl is now in her second trimester where, thankfully, she’s feeling much better these days.
The first three months passed in a blur of morning sickness and the accompanying general body malaise- aches, tightness, lethargy… While in the midst of her company’s peak period, she was racked with bouts of sheer exhaustion (the body’s working [...]

Its been a madhouse around here this past two weeks. Far too many projects and the whole hassle of moving office has been taking a toll on this girl- she’s not been sleeping too well, she has dreams of her having dreams about work which is oddly trippy and makes her think she’s in some [...]
sometimes its a little easier

A friend recovering from cancer led this girl to re-read this charge in 1 Peter 3:1-7 on wives and husbands:
1Wives, in the same way be submissive to your husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives, 2when they [...]
iphone nonsense
Posted in Life in the Town House, funnies, the boy, tagged iphone on July 23, 2009 | 2 Comments »
As blogged before, The Boy has the new iphone which this girl openly secretly covets. And this is where the weirdness of the whole situation.
1. The Boy goes out with his phone less- apparently, it, being bigger than his previous Nokia makes it “inconvenient” to put in his pocket. Whe out together, this girl has [...]

The Made in China label has gained its fair share of fame and noteriety. Along with her ability to reverse engineer almost anything- if you give them two weeks with a product, they’d be able to create an almost replica for you. And of course, in light of that, its burgeoning imitation goods market: bags, [...]
getting savvy

Over the last year, this girl has been overtly subtly trying to influence The Boy to embrace Mac. Now, this girl fully appreciates that having PC can be convenient for gamers, certain programs (like accountancy whatnot) and the sheer ease of getting printers, programs and other such things.
Since this girl helped The Boy spruce up [...]
the blasted flu
Posted in Life in the Town House, just me, the boy on July 10, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
The H1N1 mayhem has ripped through the world. Like- and unlike- the SARS pandamic that gripped the world years ago, this flu strain seems tough to get a handle on with though with mounting casuality rates and (gratefully) far less fatalities. People don’t travel as much, people are oddly suspicious and overly cautious.
Now, this girl [...]

The Boy and The Mother love Tiger Woods. Both- along with many other golfers in the world, surely- will willingly stay up way into the night or wake up at odd times in the morning to watch the masterclass golfer play in a final round. Her doctor/family friend recently got back from Tiger Watch live [...]

Smartest Friend is back from the States on summber break and while she’s very much the same, she’s brought a little more Americana back with her; namely her love affair with American football and NBA. It was tres entertaining hearing her and The Boy go back and forth over dinner about NBA throwing names, stats [...]
love languages and needs

A friend recently posted something she read from a couple-couple book called His needs, Her needs; that aspires to help couples build an affair-proof marriage. According to the writer, one Dr. Haley, couples need to learn to understand each other’s needs. One review site writes:
“This book is simply amazing. The premise of the book is [...]
the girl thing
Posted in Life in the Town House, the boy on May 27, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Its a misnomer that girs don’t like pretty girls. To the contrary, base on this girl’s experience, girls are rather accepting of good looking girls, finding them pleasing to the eye as well. It doesn’t mean we want to go up to them, snog them or sleep with them; but women can appreciate a pretty [...]
the Britain’s got talent hunt

This girl and The Boy love to watch Britain’s Got Talent (on youtube since they don’t get it on TV or cable). Yes, over American Idol- they think America votes stupidly sometimes; and over America’s Got Talent since the show has David Hasselhoff who’s really OTT stupid. So over the weekend, they spent far too [...]

She has been trying to sleep earlier these days since she’s feeling an odd bout of tiredness. Work’s pretty much alright; better since this girl has consistently, conscientiously and consciously cutting back and scaling down where work is concerned. Most recently, she gave up a big big six fugure project that would tie her down [...]

This girl (and The Boy) spent last Saturday attending the extraordinary AWARE meeting with some two thousand other women and men. As most from the island nation will know, the saga has been brewing for over a month (you can read about it here) and things finally came to a head in a requisitioned EGM [...]

This girl used to practice, administer the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator profile test which is one of the world’s most widely used personality profiling tool. (more here) Like her, The Boy is also an INFP. (You can take your test here.) And here is the prayer for each type…
