Hey morning!!!

Am now at Woodlands. Been staying here since Tuesday. It was a very last minute decision on Andy's part to stay Woodlands. We were supposed to send my sister to Yishun that Tuesday night, and after sending her to Yishun, we went straight back to Woodlands. Nearer for us to go back. Hahaha

What's the feeling like staying at mum-in-law's place? Very free with nothing to do. There's only 4 of us in the house including myself. My brother-in-law is hardly at home. Mum-in-law is working till 6pm. Myself and Andy will reach home around 8pm. There's no kids at home so house is always very kemas. Basically, I don't have to vacuum or mop the house everyday. Just washing of the dishes after dinner. I just have to wash my laundry every 2 days. I started out washing my laundry every morning before I go off to work but my mum and Andy told me there is no need to wash your laundry every day. It's not like I am a family of many many children. Heh!

Did you know last Wednesday I made a very silly mistake? I woke up early coz Andy has to wake up at 6am. And since it's the MIL's house, I had to be an exemplary wife and daughter-in-law so I woke up as well. After Andy went off to work, I had a few hrs to spare and hence I decided to wash my laundry. Filled up the water, pour in the detergent and put in my clothes and voila, the washing machine should just start right? But no, the washing machine stayed quiet. Nothing happened. No spinning and no drying!

I called up Andy to ask him what's wrong with the washing machine but he offered me a very stupid solution. Leave the clothes in the washing machine and he will do the laundry when he comes back from work later. I definitely could not do that because my clothes are already soaked with water and the detergent in the washing machine. I possibly can't leave them like that till evening. My clothes will stink!!!! After hanging up the phone, I decided to try again to start the washing machine and that is when I realised I have not plugged the socket to the power point. So obviously washing machine cannot work!!! How bimbo can I be? Inilah kes anak dara yang tak masuk dapur. It was such a bimbotic moment hokay.

Putting that bimbo incident aside, staying in Woodlands has its advantages. I am never late for work. I reach my office between 8.40 to 8.50am. I still have time to queue up at Mr Soya Bean to get breakfast. Oh speaking of breakfast, did I tell you, my MIL has been making me breakfast since Wednesday? Wednesday, she made jemput2 for me, Thursday, she made bread with nutella, Friday, she made french toast. I was quite flattered but at the same time segan also. Haha. Do I sound like a pampered daughter-in-law? Andy says I do, cos Andy did not get breakfast last time. Hmmm, I am guilty of not making him breakfast also. Heh!

Anyway, I am now waiting for my elder sister to wake up. I promised her I would fetch her from Yishun and then we go to our mum's place together. I can't believe I am doing this. Weekends visiting my mother. As of now, I have not missed home yet except for my cat, Wiwit. Wiwit is like my bantal busuk. Even if my mum calls me up at work, I'd ask for Wiwit. Not as if she can talk.

I also realised I need to be back at Woodlands by 5pm to attend a solemnisation of a neighbour here in Woodlands. I should have not promise my sister anything. But what's done cannot be undone. I am still trying to successfully upload all my pictures in Multiply. My patience is wearing thin and I am on the verge of giving up. However, since I have nothing to do I shall simply wait and do this slowly.

Till then...

Dear Husband,

Did you realize that during the weekends I was angry with you? I doubt so. After all, I talked to you in my normal tone. I chatted with you happily and I did not even show you my sour face. So I guess you have absolutely no idea how mad I am with you. Oh you have also no idea how confused your wife is. I am angry with you but ironically I am still able to talk to you normally. Surprise, surprise, I did not even pass sarcastic remarks to you or perhaps my sarcasm was very subtle for you to hardly even notice it?

I am mad with you because you left me alone with your family to attend wedding receptions of your distant cousin while you went to attend your friend’s wedding and you made me wait for you alone at your grandma’s house for like 2 hours? I felt so awkward and weird. I don’t mind waiting for you at your mum’s house but this is your grandma’s house!!! And that was the 1st time I went to your grandma’s house as your wife! I hope you don’t do this to me again. Anyway, I thanked you for allowing me to bond with my in-laws. Haha. Despite that I still had fun with your mum aka my MIL, your aunts, your uncles and your grandma.

I am also mad with you because I did not get to go out with you on Saturday night. Yes, call me petty but I was actually looking forward to going out with you that Saturday after the wedding dinner. I did not even mind a trip to Mustafa or a trip to Macdonalds at Ang Mo Kio but I definitely mind staying at home watching the tv alone while you slept like a log! I know I had to be at Jurong East by 9am but still it’s Saturday night, for goodness sake! And it’s the Great S’pore Sale…. Ok, I have to admit I was looking forward to checking out the sale and do a bit of shopping, which you hate doing but we have not been going out. It’s all work during the week. And, when are you bringing me to Serene Centre for my pulut hitam ice cream?

Can we go Serene Centre tonight? Or can we have fondue at Beach Road? Or Arnolds Chicken? Puh-leassssssse…..
