Anxiety

Marieann's prelims and PSLE are coming soon... 
Marieann could have done more revision during the holidays but she hardly did any work. Not exaggerating. Her father is not working a 9-5 job and is home in the afternoons but he is of no help as he couldn't be bothered about the girls' studies. He is more interested in watching the shows he downloaded and playing computer games. He has openly said that it is not his responsibility to monitor his daughters' studies. I feel like a single parent. 

A Storm is Brewing

Dark rain clouds are amassing overhead. Wind speed is picking up. Sweet, sharp odour of ozone is in the air. A storm is definitely brewing. 

Sunsets

I have been able to catch the sunset on different days. Each sunset is so unique and beautiful. :) See for yourselves. :) 

Tired

Feeling tired. Need a holiday. :(

Prep for New School Term

In a few more days, the new school term will begin. My mother brought the girls for a hair cut so that they will look neat, tidy and ready for school. The girls seem to be ready for their return to school.

Rest

Have been a long time since I slept by 11pm. Have been getting my much needed sleep and rest. It felt good.

Recovery?

Coughing. 
Sniffing.
Recovering? 
Too slow for my comfort...

Low BP

I was finally "well" enough to visit the doctor's on my own without having to trouble anyone to send me to the doctor's. I was diagnosed with having the flu and I also had very low blood pressure, the first time that I have had such low blood pressure, 95/60. No wonder, I almost blacked out twice on Saturday and have been feeling light-headed and giddy. :( 
I was told to REST, no more late nights, and to eat regularly.

Sick

sick

Sick at AGM

It is certainly no fun attending an AGM while being sick. I was cold, miserable and mentally zonked out for the 3 hours of my estate's AGM. However, as I was the secretary of the last management council, I couldn't skip attending it. I managed to last through the whole thing and got re-elected as a member in the next management council. However, I also paid the price for not resting when I should be because my fever came back, and my coughing got worse. :(

Feeling Off

Feeling off after a morning meeting at MOE. Hoping it is just stress.

Water Heater

It has been almost a week since the water heater in my bathroom went bonkers. :( Every time we switched on the water heater, the electricity in the entire apartment tripped. It is either the switch or the water heater that is faulty. Contacted someone but they haven't had the time to come take a look. My girls and I have been taking our showers in my parents'  bathroom. But somehow it is just not the same as my own bathroom.

New Read

Just discovered a new series of books to read. It's the Event Group Adventure series by David Goleman. It has the mystery, the action, the adventure, the mystics that I enjoy. :) Just started on the first book, Event and I haven't been able to put it down. :)

Read This

Nothing better than to see my favourite author, James Rollins' books with a  "READ THIS"! :)

Seen at the bookshop, Changi International Airport.

Sunny Moth

Saw this little beauty resting on the floor along the corridor of my work place when I went to the canteen for lunch. It was still there at the same spot when I returned from lunch.

Managed to snap its photo before it flew away into the sun.

Another Beautiful Sunset

What can I say? Yet again another beautiful sunset. :)

Storm

I woke up to see a sky darkened with black thick rain clouds. Moments later after I took the photos, the wind started blowing and the storm hit us. 

It has been very humid and hot the past few days. This storm would bring some respite from the heat, I hope.

Full Moon + Friday 13th = RARE

Today is Friday the 13th and it also has a full moon which is known as the honey/ mead/ strawberry/ rose moon. It is a rare sight and event. The last time a full moon occurred on a Friday the 13th was in 2000. The next time we have a full moon on Friday the 13th will be in October 2049. (Interestingly, Friday the 13th came about because of October 13 1307 where scores of Templar Knights were killed by King Philip IV.)
In the presence of tonight's full moon, I gave a quick thank to the Mother Goddess. :)

The full moon is peeking out from behind the clouds (green laser beams from MBS, not aliens lol)

2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil

2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil starts on 12 June and ends on 13 July. For a whole month, I think I would be hearing nothing but discussions about football lol. I will be hearing lots of loud cheers, yells, and shouts from various households in my estate when the football matches are on! 
Wonder which team(s) my brother and his family is/ are supporting. GOOD LUCK to your team(s).

Saving Gaia

We all have a part to play in saving Gaia, our Mother Earth. It is as simple as Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.
