Trip to the vet

Today brought Zack to the vet. He chewed on his left paw until there was inflamation. Good thing it didn't become an infection as assured by the vet. The vet gave Zack a jab to relieve him of the itch and gave us medication for him to consume and apply...

what I want to say is that the trip to the vet was really trying.... I thought the traffic would ease after the peak hour which is after 9.30am. Today is monday and if i leave after 9.30am I would not have to rush with the rest... guess what? Taxis were all HIRED and there was none available for the next 20 minutes. Finally at 10:10am, I called Comfort Cab for a taxi. It came quick at a price of $2.50 that is. I asked the taxi driver about the unusual phenomenon of the heavy traffic of taxi. He said, today is the official day that most people are going back to work after the long rest of Chinese New Year and that's why it's a little bit busier than usual. I see, I never knew that.

Spent about an hour at the vet.. and took another taxi back to Sengkang. This time there was no problem, just that the taxi driver wind down the windows cuz he says he is allergic to animal fur..

I am wondering, when will singapore be kinder to animals? Allow animals to travel on public transport ley.. as long as they are caged, i think it should be fineeeeeeeeeee!

truth hurts but it heals too

2 nights ago, I asked a very close friend of mine if I am an insistent person. Haha.. without any second thoughts, she said yes. Wow, that drove a long nail right through my heart. If you ask, you'll get the answers. Of course, initially I would think to myself, I do not think I am an insistent person all the time but I only insist when I am sure about certain things close to my heart i.e. when I have been seeking God about it or it is IN my system due to long periods of conditioning e.g. spiritually or just my personal value system. That analysis certainly made me felt better but it also got me reflecting (truth heals). As I thought through, certainty about something for me will activate a wish/desire to see it happen immediately and NOW. If it is God's will, it is NOW. As I look back on buying our first flat, it was the same. When I first view the unit (my current place), I was quite sure that the house was IT. But my then fiance and husband now do not think so and asked me ...

God leads us along

I attended a memorial service of Pastor Derek Tan, Former President of TCA, the bible school which I graduated from. It was a night of remembering. The fondest memory I have of him was his sense of humour. Last night, a lecturer of the bible school gave her eulogy, his sense of humour once again surfaced. On his hospital bed, he asked his fellow colleague to bring him some good food. When asked what he would like to eat, he asked for sharks' fins. Food and humour. As I sat where I was listening to the eulogies, I asked myself, what a person be most remembered for? For Pastor Derek Tan, he will always be remembered for his kindness and graciousness, beyond all that he has accomplished, a man like him will always be remembered by how he has treated others. No hint of ranks lurks each time I sit in his room after a semester ends to discuss which courses I should be taking for the next semester. He would talk to me like how would talk to a friend. I will always remember his reassuring ...

6 weeks plus & 4.5mm

I went to the gynae yesterday. For the first time, I heard and saw the baby's heartbeat through the ultrasound scan. It's quite amazing at this point. The gynae told me that the baby is not feeding from me yet, it is attached to a yolk and the yolk is where it draws its nutrients from. It's just great to think that when God created the reproduction system, God saw to every detail. I wonder where did the yolk come from and how it is attached to the baby. It's a mystery to me but it causes me to sing yet again in praise to God. When people heard that I was pregnant, they would expressed their excitement in WOWS & YAYS. For myself, I didn't had such an expression. When I found out that I was pregnant via the test kit, I went "Oh, I am pregnant" - as a matter of factly. Similarly, when Adrian found out that I was pregnant, he had the same response as me. We weren't into screaming the whole house/neighbourhood down. For us, it was sober and thoughtful. ...
