My Nephew

Say Hi to my nephew! 

Frankly, i've always felt like all the babies look the same. But when i finally saw this cute little fella, i was able to identify my sister's mouth and eyes in him. Am totally bias in this but he looks super cute to me, you know being so baby, so little, and ewwwwwww..... i wish i could hold his tiny little fingers now. 

Kudos to my sister as she went through more than a day of hard labour to bring this fella to the world. By the way, there is this question which always lingering in my mind and finally i got the chance to ask the person with the first hand experience.

"There is always a saying that the moment you see the face of the baby after long hours of excruciating labour pain, all the pain just went "poof" and vanished! IS IT TRUE?"  

My sister answer was "Vanish you head la! of course the PAIN is still there".

So here it goes, the myth is now busted. 

The making of the kitchen

Yesterday Sunday service message was about procrastination and its bad consequences. While listening to the message i made an effort to list down all the things which i supposed to do but ended up in my procrastination list. 

I guess there is no surprise that blogging the back dated events was on the top of the list. SO, out of great shame and deep regret, i wrote this post the moment i went back home. Here comes the making of my kitchen. which occurred a month ago. ;p

Day 1: Basically cleaning up the space and hacking the wall for the electrical plug outlets

Day 2: Things getting intense as the contractor removed the existing build in cabinet and semen top

In between, there were dust everywhere, i nearly die of continuously stepping on dusty floor.

Day 3: Fill in the cement gaps

Day 4: New floor and wall tiles

1st Weekend: The credit of painting the wall solely goes to none other than Peter and myself. The funny thing was we painted the wall at NIGHT. We were running around in the morning buying the necessary accessories and meeting vendors, so for the two consecutive nights during the weekend,  we were in our most worn out clothes, climbing and painting the wall until its glow in white.  

There was more dust. 

2nd week: The subsequent week was all about the carpentry work. We have chosen a C shape black granite kitchen Top and glossy white wall cabinet. The chunk of the moolah went to the Fotile kitchen set which includes the suction unit, the induction electric ceramic cooker and the built in Oven. 

By the end of 3rd week. Our black and white theme kitchen was completed. 

I was in complete euphoric as there was no more DUST!!!
ps: Pardon the picture of the jars of snacks. Gosh I love the IKEA air tight jar!
