New HP Laptop

I just got my new HP laptop and was so excited to install all the necessary software for it to run. It was preloaded with DOS only and I planned to install XP OS instead. However, it came down to many problems because XP do not have the hardware drivers preloaded in the installation disc. We had to download the drivers one at a time from the internet. But not all the hardware has XP compatible drivers due to push to support Vista. According to the HP support staff, we'll need to use Vista instead for my new laptop as not all hardware drivers are available for XP. If wanted to use XP, need to inform HP before purchasing any laptop so that they can recommend the model which is XP compatible. This is because all new models only support Vista due to the push by Microsoft. Curse Microsoft...

Party Party, Xmas Party

We had a Christmas party at our office last Friday where everyone chipped in by preparing food for lunch, except for myself :P. My goal of going there is to makan what they had prepared and join in the gift exchange. Everyone was supposed to wear either red or green for the Christmas celebration theme but since my body is still bloated, I was excused... haha

Wah... so many gifts

Chicken instead of turkey... budget problem mah...

So who got what?

Full Moon Gift

For the baby full moon, we went for 3 things:
1. traditional tumeric rice and curry chicken for relatives
2. KFC voucher for colleagues
3. gift set box for close friends

The first 2 items are very common. As for the 3rd item, I actually assigned my younger sister to prepare the special gifts to be distributed to close friends. After weeks of sampling and research, she manage to create very beautiful item which she made it herself which I liked straight away. Note that almost everything is handmade by her which are the brownie cupcake, cookies, poem message, envelope and the gift. Everyone who receives the gift box loves it very much, especially girls :P

Botak Head

My baby's hair was shaved to bald in preparation of full moon ceremony. Here's some of the photos taken during the event. I feels that he looks cuter with his hair instead. Need to wait sometime for it to grow back again...

hey... is it time for my feed?

What's going on my head?

Ah... I'm feeling some cool breeze...

I want my hair back!!!

New Arrival

I've finally delivered a baby boy last month. In fact on the same day where I wrote my previous entry here, i encountered some bleeding few hours later and the doctor says that I was in labour. Instead of being admitted to the hospital, I went back first to clear some things and only went back to the hospital around 9pm after feeling more frequent contraction. We went for induced labour as suggested by the doctor and the baby is born on 0056 the next morning (9th Nov 2008). Delivering a baby is extremely painful.

The baby is 1 month now and I was unable to make any entries here due to internet unavailabiliy during my stay in the confinement centre. Even back home now is extremely busy trying to cope taking care of the baby whole day and night. Will only post some photos later, I am super tired...
