The End is Near

2 more days and the wait is over. Am I happy? Excited? A mixture of all emotions. All I know for now is I so need the break and rest before Junior makes his/her exit from my uterus and grand entrance into this world.

I'm about to become an income-less woman. Not so happy about that. But fret not. I won't stay home and rot away. I have things planned for myself after recuperating. So for those who thinks I'm about to morph into a tai-tai, think again. Cet!! Lain lah kalau laki aku Saudagar minyak ke, taukey fishball do-do ke (eh the owner filthy rich ok)! I will definitely still be ~~sexually~~ virtually active. Internet is probably a third of my body's survival essentials.

Shit..I need to go to the loo again. Till next entry...

Not too late...

to wish Salam Aidilfitri to all.
Maaf Zahir Batin.
~~~~~

Back to work today. How was my first raya as a wife? Too heavy, busy and tired to notice any significant difference. We both came back to our home just a day before raya so everything was last minit. Our coffee table was even delivered at 2am malam raya. No plans to have baju of the same color with him but we ended up having so (thanks to darling hubby for buying me that Saudi dress which fits me perfectly with all my belly glory). And my stupid digi cam died on me. So no pics. Bleargh. How is that for first raya?

This year 2 sets of parents I have to seek forgiveness from. Sungguh lah kekok.com with my in-laws. I should have prepared a script in my head. I was so brief I think I said it all in one breath. Cet. My youngest bro-in-law who is only 12 was the briefest though. "Sorry eh panggil gemok". Hahah. Of course kena tongue lashing by my MIL. He can't seem to grasp the fact that being pregnant means growing bigger.

The only major difference is I still got duit raya last yr cause many still think I'm a student for some reason (rezeki jgn ditolak! kekeke) BUT this yr cannot hide..the BIG BELLY says it all.

Count Dracula

8...8....8 more working days till I'm O.U.T. Ah ah ah ah ah *dracula laugh*

The blessing beneath the resignation? No more discomfort from sitting on this office chair especially if I have to lean forward to get closer to the monitor. Very distracting also lah. I have the feeling that I'll pop sooner than expected. And I have yet to wash the baby clothes I have bought so far.

So many things to do. So little time. Hopefully I will get to pack the Go-go Popping Bag with all the stuff that is needed. The thing is my mind will just go blank whenever I even think about it. I can't even decide which BAG to use. Ok slap me already. Let me try and run a checklist :

For me:
- marriage cert
- going home outfit
- nursing bra
- boobies and maternity pads

For baby:
- rompers
- mittens n booties
- diapers/nappies

See that's about all I can think of. Did I miss out anything? I'm totally CLUELESS. I just hope the excitement won't flush out all the clarity and senses in my hubby's head which could lead him to bringing an entirely different bag probably filled with my sewing stuff. Yikes!!

Doing the Hockey Pockey

I swear I probably have a swimmer in the making. Or perhaps a yoga instructor. Or even more exciting, a stunt double! Why? Because lately, Junior have been CONSTANTLY bulging, stretching, rolling, poking, kicking, sliding, nudging and the worst is jolting. I can barely focus at work. Let's not start about sleep even. I can't imagine how it is like for those who carry twins or more. Scaaarrrry!!

Isn't it about time that there isn't enough room and the movements should have reduced by now? At least that's what BabyCenter.com says. Or is Junior getting impatient to stretch his/her long legs out of the confined area hence causing such a chaos. Sometimes I really think Jr is about to tear his way out of my uterus and skin ala Alien style. Eeeee takot. Looky here, according to a site, a 32 weeks old fetus should look like this :

Kesian kan!!??? Cramping his style lah my womb. Heh. After looking at this photo, all is forgiven. Jr can create all the fuss he wants in my tummy. Just don't pop out YET. Give that tiny room or more like hole wee bit more time hokay? Say about 4-8 weeks. And you will be rewarded with at least a yr supply of fresh and naturally brewed breast milk. Deal???

Over time

Now is already the beginning of week 2 through my notice period. So fast hor time flies. 2 more weeks and I'm outta here. Hippie Hippie Hooray.

Actually I will miss some of the people here at the law firm that I work with. But I won't miss my sucky management whom I don't see often anyway.

Mister Hubster has left this morning to report to camp. This is our first Ramadhan together and he will be away half of it. It's not that bad though. We don't break fast together anyway. Only once or twice. He usually head straight to the mosque after work and will only be home after Terawih. And I'm already heavily preggie. So I don't see why those wives who have their husband away for only a few days during this month complaining much. Mine will be away for 2 whole sucky weeks. What will I miss? The pillow talk we have everyday before sleep. We usually do that for hours till one of us fall silent asleep. And that my friend is usually him. Heh. (I have trouble sleeping lah..thanks to mighty junior.)

By the time he is back it will be 3 more days till Syawal. It's our first Raya too and I will be looking so unglamorous walking like a bloated penguin. Bleargh. Doesn't matter, I'm just eternally grateful to the Great One that I am blessed with what I have today.

As expected

And just as I have expected, my leave application for Hari Raya which I only applied for the day before and after is not approved. Why? Because the other Muslim staffs also applied. And let me tell you that the others are all Males ok. I'm the only female Muslim staff. Shouldn't the priority go to the PREGNANT WOMAN???

I only have 1 word to say to my employers-> KANINABU!

Ps: Pardon me. They have already exhaust my patience. I still have teeny left..else I would already dump everything and walk away.
