Mom wants to get herself a new PC for sometime now. She has a laptop but said she wants a big monitor. She wants something that can be put away in a cabinet when she’s not using it. *Scratches head * She doesn’t want kids to play around with the PC as she does bring her work home sometimes. I must remember to let her surf for viewsonic monitor to give her some ideas of the size of LCD monitor that will fit her requirements. Where can we get a computer table or cabinet that can store the whole set of a PC? Maybe I should just tell Mom to plug the laptop to the TV instead.
She wants bigger screen so that it’ll be much fun and easier for her to play her favourite computer games anyway …. LOL.
Speaking of pc, my PC has gone crazy again… and I must keep my energy so that I can try to troubleshoot the Streamyx connection, take note of its error message – which means I have to revert to dial up instead of the ‘always on’ mode before I can make a report to TM.

Gosh, it’s been a week since I was able to access the Internet from home! Do you know how torturous that can be to me? And no, bongkersz, I cannot afford to sign up for Digi Data Unlimited Plan on top of 3 mobile phone lines and a land line to pay for LOL!

As I was following the cards dropped in my Entrecard’s inbox, I came across Beeker’s Words’ blog. I’m glad that I visited the blog, or else I wouldn’t have the opportunity to listen to the amazing teenager (she’s 15 in these videos!) with an amazing voice! Who? Charice Pempengco of Philippines! I’ve never heard of her myself, but search for her name in youtube and you’ll see a few videos showing her vocal talent.
This is the video that I saw on Beeker’s Words…
Her voice gave me goosebumps and brought tears to my eyes.. heart-wrenching vocal!
Another of my favourite …
A voice that I’m sure we’ll hear more of in near future! All the best to you, Ms. Pempengco!

I don’t hate cats, but I’m not fond of them either. Why don’t I like cats, when most of my friends love cats? Apart from the fur being harmful to our health if we weren’t careful, this is why….
Clawed!
I was at friends’ house on Saturday, and the cat thought my foot was a toy! As I walked, he clawed and bit on my foot and boy, did it hurt! They said the kitchen area was his playground, and he’s used to doing that to the owners. Lately the owners were to busy to play with him, and he wanted attention. So yeah, I was his play toy. I just stood there enduring the excruciating pain, waiting for his playful mood to be over. I didn’t dare to move my leg as every time I moved, he just gripped and bit my foot much deeper.
In the evening, another friend came over and asked if I took any slimming pills such as
Phentermine (no I didn’t..) as she said I looked slimmer from the last time she saw me. Oh yeah, that made my day after having that scratches on my foot earlier!

I guess the days and nights with irregular meal times helps a bit. Not a good thing in a long run, but as long as I don’t get gastric attacks, it should be fine.
Circled: The bite wound that causing me discomfort - the reason I got the jab!
It’s been two days yet one of the wound is still tingly with pain. So I decided it’s time for me to pay a visit to a doctor this morning. The doctor told me that I was lucky the wound didn’t puncture through into the flesh, but nevertless should get myself an injection to avoid complication. He also said..
Cats bites are the worst. I’ve seen many cases of cats bites and they always get infected even thought it has been treated. Get treatment immediately when one is bitten by a cat!
That’s why I don’t like cats, they claws and bites people. And I’ll have scars from it as a reminder for sometime

I’ll stick to rabbit pets … hehe …
p.s: Asked the doctor to take my BP reading. It read 150/90 *sigh* It was back to normal about a month ago, must be all those tasty food I had recently…

This year, Mother’s Day falls on 11th May. Yes, that’s today. I peeked on Mom just now and found that she’s still sleeping. Good, I’m trying not to make much noise and let her have her rest
The chocolate moist cake is waiting for her in the ‘fridge along with her carnation. Typical, yes, but that’s what I do every year. It won’t be the same without the cake and the carnation. A time for family gathering, for we’ll go to Grandma’s and celebrate Mother’s Day together. It’s always nice to spend time with family
Mom, this song is for you. The song says it all …
You taught me everything
And everything you’ve given me
I always keep it inside
You’re the driving force in my life, yeah
There isn’t anything
Or anyone I can be
And it just wouldn’t feel right
If I didn’t have you by my side
You were there for me to love and care for me
When skies were grey
Whenever I was down
You were always there to comfort me
And no one else can be what you have been to me
You’ll always be you always will be the girl
In my life for all times
Chorus:
Mama, mama you know I love you
Oh you know I love you
Mama, mama you’re the queen of my heart
Your love is like
Tears from the stars
Mama, I just want you to know
Lovin’ you is like food to my soul
You’re always down for me
Have always been around for me even when I was bad
You showed me right from my wrong
Yes you did
And you took up for me
When everyone was downin me
You always did understand
You gave me strength to go on
There was so many times
Looking back when I was so afraid
And then you come to me
And say to me I can face anything
And no one else can do
What you have done for me
You’ll always be
You will always be the girl in my life
Chorus
Mommy, thanks for always being there for me … I love you, MOM!
Aunties, friends and to all Moms out there, Happy Mother’s Day!!
