Something is wrong…

It’s almost a year since I last updated to this blog. Something is wrong with my life at the moment.

Today is the second day my wife has been on sleeping pills. Well, perhaps not sleeping pills, but muscle relaxation supplement. She is having trouble sleeping.

She explains she has a lot of unexplainable pressure, perhaps to do with work, or even Abi. However from what I can see, it has a lot more do to with herself instead.

Ever since giving birth to Abi, she seems to have a difficult time to adjust to the new lifestyle. Perhaps she was too accustomed to her life before marriage where her parents did everything for her. Therefore the transition of becoming a mother was somehow a big change to her.

Even Abi is more than two and a half now, she still cannot quite get used to the life of having a child around. Having a child automatically means more responsibility, it automatically means lesser time for yourself. She does not seem to get used to “having less time”. Every time when I try explaining to her, she seems to think that I am just complaining about her.

Since day one she has been taking my message all wrong.

Now she is probably experiencing psychotropic issue, where she is now so stressed, she cannot sleep normally, thus the muscle relaxation supplement comes in.

What can I do? Now comes to think of it, is it my fault that she is having the problems she is having today? Or is it because the way she was raised hence unable to cope the extra pressure?

I am truly worried. If this drags on, maybe I will need to seek some mental support as well.

There goes 2010…Hello 2011

Yesterday was the first time in the last five years which I did not go and see the countdown firework. Instead, I stayed home with the newest member of the family, Abigail.

The firework sucked balls like last year anyway, so it wasn’t too much of a loss. However, it did feel good to stay home and celebrate with the family.

Now, new year resolution which I made in 2010. I made two actually, one was to lose weight and get down to around 66 and the other was to get myself a nice six pack abs.

Lose weight, yes! I got myself down to around 66 which I am very pleased.

Six pack abs? Well, not quite but I did manage to get four. The fifth and sixth will appear if I lose a bit more weight. Even with four, I am more than delighted.

Highlight of the year? Well, only one, but also the biggest of my entire life, is Abigail. She entered my world on the 31st of July 2010. She is the most adorable little girl in the world. Thank you Peny for bringing her to us, I love you too!

End of 2010 and hello 2011. So what is my New Year resolution for this year? Well, get my six abs and get rich!

Happy 90th Birthday, Grandma!

Isn’t it amazing? Today was grandma’s 90th birthday! What’s so amazing isn’t the number 90, but it’s how well she looks. She definitely doesn’t look like someone who just turned 90!

Happy birthday grandma. We look forward to bring Abigail to see you soon!

Happy Birthday

I turn 30 today. Wow… it feels like I have been living in the twenties for years.

A quiet celebration, or actually no celebration. Just me, my wife, my daughter, my parents and a birthday cake. Simple, but more than enough.

Thank you all for the blessing and happy birthday Paul!

Happy Anniversary

Today is my wedding anniversary. My wife and I have been married for two years, and the biggest difference this time is now we have a baby daughter.

We had dinner at 西提 which it was the first formal outing since my wife became pregnant. We talked a lot about how things have changed over the last twelve months. The biggest of course, again is Abigail.

Thank you, Peny. Happy anniversary! Next time we can bring Abigail to our anniversary celebration!

Almost Lost It!

I thought I lost Abigail’s health care card.  Gosh that was scary.  The first and the only ID that I applied for Abigail, the single most important thing and I thought I lost it.  Lucky it was only misplaced in one of the drawers.

The ID wasn’t the only thing I had trouble finding.  Strangely I seem to forget a lot of things recently.  Could it be lack of sleep?  Ahh, maybe I just need to sleep more!

Good Burger

I had a really nice burger with Joe at Uncle Sam’s.  It was surprising how good the burger was, it was so damn good.  Probably the best burger at this price point I have ever tasted.  Not only the burger was nice, they also baked some really nice bread too.  It turned out Uncle Sam wasn’t just good at making burgers!

Happy Father’s Day!

Happy Father’s Day! Today is also my first Father’s Day and we spent the afternoon shopping and eating a Miramar shopping complex. I didn’t get any Father’s Day gift (as expected), but having Abigail is just as good.
