my throat is dry and sore…
fara | 1/18/2009 | 3:55 pm… from yakking non-stop from 10++ to 2pm… that’s what happens when you end up meeting your best mate after 6 months. we had drinks @ coffee bean.. then relocated to sushi zanmai for lunch..
i know i have been remiss in keeping up with friends.. blame it on the almost crazy days at work.. it’s mainly my fault for not making the time.. but when you arrive home only at 8pm ++ … and realise that it’s nearly the kids’ bedtime and you count the waking hours you can spend with them – it seems almost a crime to even think of meeting with friends.
but in this case, she’s about to pop out a tot.. and i have yet to see her in all her pregnant glory in person- facebook really can’t replace IRL meetings.
it’s good to be able to unload and talk things over with her. i miss the camaraderie – which was built over 7-odd years .. being able to talk about nearly everything… we’ve only really got into a tiff 2x over the 7 years… once was work-related .. and another was so dumb, i’d rather not mention here.
it sucks that she’s in sunway & works in pj .. while i am in wangsa maju and work in kl… we’re confined to weekends to meet up.. and you know weekends normally take a life of its own when not planned ahead.
to kakcik… my advice – for all its worth
- hang in there.. don’t get too stressed and don’t sweat the little things..
- remember that there’s a living, breathing creation within you – who’ll be popping out in two weeks’ (or less) and who will love you unconditionally
- increase your fibre intake !!! i can’t stress too much..
- these last few weeks.. keep track and make sure the baby is active from between 9am – 9 pm (ensure the baby moves at least a minimum of 10x or is it 20x?..)
- and… call the police if that creepy lady from work still stalks your new home
and don’t forget to buzz me if you get the sign!!! i will endeavour to be there upon hearing your safe delivery!!!!!!!!
