This one is a really fun one! Fat Bond & Sis are back in SG and finally the family is reunited as one (not really, given with the current Parents' saga going on but better than nothing!)
Chinese New Year Eve - 13th February 2010
The Ang Family was supposed to go Bedok for lunch but we went to IKEA for lunch and got last minute food shopping at Anchorpoint. After we were done with lunch, we went to Bedok so that PK could collect his TM Lewin shirts while Sis played with Ms. Piggy. As dinner was at Bt Panjang, PK called the in laws and asked whether they could pick us up at Bedok to Bt Panjang for dinner.
Thank god, the in laws agreed and the in laws first went to their coffeeshop to settle some stuff. Guess what, one of my in laws' staff forgotten to lock one of the coffeeshop doors! Both of them were commenting that it was a fortunate thing that PK asked to pick us up at Bedok before going for the dinner.
During our dinner at Bt Panjang, PK went to get some stuff from the kitchen and one of his pockets got ripped off from his bermudas and it was a funny sight! He used scotch tape to tape up the hole!! :P
After dinner, we went home. PK & I were so tired but Ms. Piggy is extremely active. It took several "threats" before she is willing to sleep!
1st day of Chinese New Year - 14th February 2010
I went to the Guanyin temple alone leaving PK & Piglet at home before meeting them later to my in laws place. Then Mum called and I changed my plan of going to Bt Panjang after my praying at the temple. I went to Bedok for lunch after praying at the temple and was "shocked" to be informed by PK that Claire woke up at 11am!
Due to some timing issues & stuff, PK went to Bedok to pick me up to Bt Panjang! We went to PK's 3rd & 4th Uncle's place before going to SK's Auntie house and Ah Sou's place at Old Airport Road. Then Sis & Bro bought Claire's to Sis' friend hous for visiting from Old Airport Road. By the time we went home, it was close to 11.30pm!
2nd day of Chinese New Year - 15th February 2010
Mum & I arranged to meet at the Cheng Wang temple to pray. Mum was late and I helped her pray on behalf. We finished our praying around 11am and went to my place. PK was giving Claire a bath when we reached home. I cooked porridge and had our lunch before we went out to meet my siblings at Toa Payoh. My siblings are bringing Ms Piggy to Sis' friend place in Toa Payoh.
Mr. Smartie Pants PK relied heavily on the GPS of my iphone to get to Sis' friend place in Toa Payoh and almost got us into a car accident. Thank god that Mum was alert to inform the taxi driver and we managed to escape it unscathed... If not, i think we will be in hospital liao!
So, Mum, PK & I went to AMK Uncle's place after passing Claire to my siblings. It was fun to chat with my cousins and see that my Auntie is doing well after her chemo (she was diagnosed with cervix cancer). Afterwards, PK & Mum met up with my siblings to go Bedok as Mum is cooking dinner for us before we took our night flight to KL (Mum, my siblings & me only) while PK will bring Ms Piggy to his cousin's place after the meal at Mum's place.
I went home to pack my lugguage. On my way home, PK called to inform me to bring my orange suitcase coz Mum wanted an extra lugguage at the last minute. So, i meet the rest of them at Mum's place and we have a happy meal & time. PK & Claire left first to go to his cousin's place while we stayed a while to do our final packing before leaving for the airport.
That's my Chinese New Year for 2010!

Trying to be funny again!
As mentioned in my earlier post, I had resigned and serving my notice period now. (Another 33 working days excluding leave to go)
Due to some emergency, I had to take 1/2 day childcare leave 2 weeks ago and SS hesitated to approve my childcare leave as our dear HR needs to seek advice on the claims of the childcare leave & stuff.
I was definitely pissed off with the HR (not showing the buey song on my face), I told SS matter of fact that if i chose to be a SAHM, then I will be taken advantage by the company if they forgo my childcare leave. Upon hearing that, SS immediately approved my childcare leave!
Frankly speaking, i was thinking to myself if this co can spend on unneccessary stuff during this period of implementation of cost cutting, what is the childcare leave to them? Really no comments and even small stuff like this, they also want to take advantage of me!
