Bored...

My appointment tonight is postponed, so it is the first time in the past 2 weeks that I'm at home in the evening resting. I have been going for a lot of appointments for the past 2 weeks that I hardly had time to rest & relax at home. I guessed I must have been so used to the hectic schedule that I felt so bored with nothing to do but just sitting down in the living room sofa & watching television alone. How I wish James is back in Singapore now...
I have closed 10 regular life cases, 1 healthshield, & 2 accident & health policies for this month. This is the first time in my four years of career that I have closed so much regular life cases in a month! Breakthrough! :) Never thought I could do it in my pregnancy state! :D I'm working so hard this month because AIA is withdrawing Achiever by end of this month, & I always like this plan the most. It is the best plan AIA have in my opinion, hence I am trying to get as many of my clients to buy the plan before the opportunity run out. & the results had been very fruitful so far. I wish AIA didn't give us just a month notice though, so I could get more of clients to benefit from this plan before AIA withdraws it. Anyway, I believe I have done my best for my clients & myself, so I'm very pleased with myself already :)

Swelling face, feets & hands

My face, hands & feet have started to swell since some weeks ago. I can't even wear my wedding ring anymore :( & today, I'd probably walked too much carrying my laptop that veins have even popped out from my feet & hands already.

Last week, 7 of my clients postpone their appointments to this week for various reasons, so I'll be having about 2-3 appointments daily for this week. Some of these appointments are even back-to-back, so I hope I won't be burned out by end of this week. Today is just the beginning, but I'm already feeling the strain. Backache, leg ache, tired, etc... I really need God's strength. I'm happy though, cause more appointments means more cases I can close, which means more $$$. Yay! :D

Celebrity Weekend

I haven't been doing busing for the past 2 Saturdays because I went to JW straight. I didn't realise how much I miss my students till I saw them in the bus last Saturday! They were so happy to see me too, it's written all over their faces! Hee ;) William even made way to sit with me. When I took out my camera, Jason immediately posed with me. When I was leaving, they kept waving goodbye to me till the bus is out of sight. My precious children! :)

In the afternoon, I attended service with James & some of my cell group members. It was Celebrity Weekend. F.I.R, Vaness (former F4 member), "Milk" (former Energy member), Jaclyn Tay, DJ Jun Wei, Liu Geng Hong, Vivi, & a few Miss Singapore Universe were there to perform & share their testimony in the service. Vaness sang an old worship song, & he was so anointed. At the second line of the song, everyone stood up & worship God together. The presence of God was very strong.

Later at night, we went to support Calvin in the Street Festival Singing Competition. Calvin's singing was supberb! He was so much better than the top 3 winners, so I think the results were biased & inaccurate le...

Jeff Wang was there to promote his album too. Pornsak & Li Teng were there to support Jeff as well. Jeff sang live & he could really sing well to my surprise.

Shopping for baby clothes

I was at the Motherhood expo fair, & I saw some really pretty baby clothes, so I can't resist buying them :) Some of them are too big for newborns, but they looked so cute, I just buy them anyway. I bought most in pink colour cause it's one of my favourite colours! James was commenting that I buy so many in pink colour & what if our baby turns out to be a boy...? There's never 100% with the test results after all... Hmm... But I still gonna buy them in pink colour! Hee ;)


This set is for her to wear home from the hospital after delivery :)

I think she can wear these when she's about 3 months.

For this set I didn't realise it was so big till after I reached home & looked at it again... Hmm... My sisters said I shouldn't have bought them cause clothes will turn yellowish if they are not worn...

I bought a lot of Avent stuffs too, majority for feeding like milk bottles, etc. Baby stuffs are so expensive!

God is good!

Some wonderful things that has happened to me over the past one week because God hears my prayers & thoughts :D

1. I closed 4 regular life cases within 3 days last week! 2 weeks ago as I gave my offering, I asked God for my harvest as I have been giving faithfully. God is faithful to bring me my rewards! :D
2. Last night I was hoping for some company, & not just one friend turned up, but 3 of my good friends. Ian picked me from my house together with Gavin & Vanessa for supper at Jalan Kayu. He knows my thoughts! :D

3. I missed James so much, & this morning, he called me to say he may be back by friday if his job goes smoothly instead of being away for 2 weeks. God knows my heart's desires! :D

I love Him!!! Haha!

I miss James!

After touching down on Thursday night from Saudi Arabia, James is away early this morning to Malaysia for probably another 2 weeks. Thus the last 2 days were especially precious to me. I find it harder & harder to cope with him flying so frequently as my stomach gets bigger. Not sure if its cause I'm more emotional now due to my pregnancy, or cause he seems to travel even more often the past 2 months & is spending shorter duration in Singapore in between each trip.

I dread nightfall when he's not around. It's during the night when I'm feeling the most uncomfortable with frequent heartburn, stomach discomforts, etc. & these conditions make sleep difficult. I feel better with him sleeping besides me, as it gives me a feeling that I'm not alone. When he's not around, I can't "complain" to him to find "comfort" in.

I also dread sleeping early as I would wake up in the middle of the night with insomnia. With him sleeping besides me, I don't mind it so much. But when I'm sleeping alone & wake up in the middle of the night for hours, I really dread it. So when he's not around, I'll try to sleep late so that I'll be so tired, I'm not likely to wake up in the middle of the night. But it also means now I have to find something to occupy myself in the night since I'm sleeping late, & it can really get boring at times just waiting to pass time so that I can sleep late. Haiz...
