My CNY celebration

Hi all peepers!! Well another late post about again. Today, I wanna share my Chinese New Year celebration on this year. If I said, nothing special in this year and everything just went well like last year, this post gonna be boring..Haha. Anyway, this year did got something special than last year. Because this year, I AM NOT GOING TO GET ANY ANGPAW FROM MY RELATIVES ANYMORE!! *cry cry cry*

In the cycle of 12 zodiac of Chinese Calender, this year is the year of snake. I believe many of you who get to read this post is afraid of snake. Well, even though snake is a type of  dangerous reptile, it represent some part of human attitude and behavior. According to Chinese symbology in Wikipedia, "snakes are regarded as intelligent, but with a tendency to be somewhat unscrupulous." For me, some snake cartoon can be just as cute as other animals. Right?

Ok, back to my special small things in this special new year..

First!
I have to answer the question that rings in your head, why am I not receiving any angpaw this year?

Because start from this year, is my turn to GIVE ANGPAW!!! to my younger relatives like my younger sister, brothers, cousins and nieces and nephews. WHY? It is because I AM MARRIED. Apparently, Chinese New Year is not fun for me anymore. Getting older each year and the angpaw also lesser and lesser each year. Miss the time when I was a kid, my mom even bought me a waist pouch to keep my angpaw. Anyway, next year, I will be giving angpaw and receiving angpaw again, for my coming new born child. Is another way to get my angpaw back, haha!


Second,

I finally get myself a CHEONGSAM! A pink cheongsam and I like it very much. Yet this year I didn't shop much and my new shirt also not so many, but with the nice cheongsam I already very satisfied. It is not so expensive yet the quality is good. It is under MYR100, so I just grabbed it when I tried on it. I am going to wear it at the first day of Chinese New Year.

Here a peek of my cheongsam. Don't worry, you will see me wearing it later.

My sweet cheongsam

Third,

The first year that celebrate Chinese New Year with my husband. Everyone was excited to meet him. Well, not like I was hiding him behind my family before married. It is because when we were dating, he can't manage to get any holiday for this Chinese New Year celebration. So, my big family didn't get chance to meet him before this. So, this year will be me bringing along my newly-wed-husband to meet  my whole family.

And now is the time for the pictures to tell the story. I'm getting lazy to type. Hee hee.. Anyway, hope you enjoy the pictures.

Let the pictures rolling..

Happy Chinese New Year to all of you out there.
Cheer!!

Just relax and be healthy

Today my body still in the same stage where I didn't hungry all the time. Wake up around 10 o'clock in the morning. Take some weather photo using instaweather app in my android tablet. It shows today weather and temperature. Wow, going to be a hot cloudy day then.

Worried about the sudden change in my body, I called my mom. We chatted about 20 minutes about everything that happen to me. Had some fun chatting and some laugh too. My mom said I'm too sensitive. Maybe my body already can accept there is a baby inside and the hormone just went back to normal again. She asked me to relax and eat more. Although I am not hungry as often but the embro inside still need a lot of nutrition from mother's body.

Today, I eat as usual just like before I am pregnant. But still I can't eat much. Still not good at eating chicken. I still feel uncomfortable the smell of chicken. It is so weird and so unpleasent for me. I had steam sweet and sour fish with rice for lunch and lotus peanut sup with rice as dinner. I made myself some pudding also. Pudding in honeydew flavor.

I guess, I still have some symptoms of pregnancy left in my body. Now it is 9:30pm and I feel a bit tired as I didn't have any evening nap today. Well, signoff for some rest.

Thanks to whoever drop by or pass by. God bless your day. Aminn...

I'm totally confuse...

Today, I'm gonna write down another journey of my life that confuse me a lot, really  a lot. I believe this week will be my 8th week pregnancy. And out of sudden, I didn't feel hungry as usual. Normally, I will get hungry in very 2 or 3 hours. Sometimes even felt like vomitting cause of bloated stomach. And most of the time I got nothing to throw up as my stomach was empty. Another pregnancy symptoms of mine are sore back and swollen breast.

In this early trimester of pregnancy, I totally lost my normal appetite. Out of sudden I can't get myself to eat chicken. It taste so weird in my mouth and I split it out after a few chew. I even lost appetite on rice also. Last week I had my lunch and dinner without rice, I cooked myself some noodle sup and sometimes feed on fruits and fruits only. Losing appetite as the same time feeling hungry all the time is suffering me out. Hungry make people tired and weak as well. I was so tired sometimes I wish I can be like plant, doing photosynthesis is much more easilier.

Yesterday, Thurday. I caught fever. Warm forehead, neck and feeling extremely sleepy and strenghtless. I skipped classes and went back to sleep. Just hoping get some sleep will bring down my fever, maybe I was too tired and not enough rest. I slept from 11pm until 2pm. I wake up felt so sticky and dirty, so I get myself to bath. I didn't have energy to cook as my head was spinning and yet still heavy. I just made myself a cup of Vico and drank it all to prevent getting to hungry as I skipped lunch. While drinking, I searched in internet, can pregnant woman take panadol soluble? Can. So, there is no effect on pregnant women and it won't harm the baby. I took just 1 tablet of Panadol Soluble with a glass of room temperature water. It taste awful as normal medicine did. I get back to sleep after that.

After about 1 and half and hour, I wake up fresh without any fever symptom. My head was light, I sweat a lot and made me felt cold. I didn't feel sleepy and tired anymore. I can get up and did some housekeeping, swept the floor, clean up  the kitchen counter and pick up my laundry at my laudry room. I felt good again.

Just 1 thing make me feel very weird, why didn't I feel hungry. Normally after evening nap, I wake up with empty stomach and feeling very hungry. Why this time is so different? A notification popped up in my tablet. My baby now is 8th weeks old. Ok, the app popped up at the time when I was totally in confuse.

Issit when I enter the 8th weeks of pregnancy, my craving for food decrease? From yesterday until today, now, my body is acting so weird. No more hungry, no more fatigue, no more morning sickness or throwing up.

I hope nothing happen to my baby. I am so confuse now and worried. I don't suffer any stomachache, no bleeding, no nothing. Baby won't go dissappear in thin air, right?

Wish for the best, hope everything will be just fine. Baby went into sleeping mode maybe. Hopefully.. God bless me, amin...
