Chloe knows exactly .. what the piggy bank is for, as soon as I whipped it out.. she pulled me to our bedroom .. where my jeans are .. and asked for a coin.

The piggy bank was a present from GrandAunt Rainy & GrandUncle Jerry… for her birthday last year.. and we put in some money every now and then.. just to teach her the concept of saving.

I asked myself this question almost every week.. and how i can make my life more significant. How can I make an impact in other people’s life..??

I do not wanna be famous .. like Sarong Party Girl or Xia Xue or even Kenny Sia, do not get me wrong.. i did not say that there was anything wrong being them. In fact I applaud them for being so ballsy. I even told another blogger, Kimberlycun that i wished that when i was younger.. i was more eloquent like she is .. in her writing.. for to me.. this girl also got lots of guts. But no .. i can do without that kinda fame.

I also do not wanna be like 5x Mom .. the very “Tok – Kong” type of SAHM who has impact other people around her .. by her many contribution to society.. and her straightforwardness towards many issues surrounding her. For i cannot take the criticism .. i get overly emotional . . and i cannot sleep. In other words, I am pretty lame and a coward, therefore i have protected password articles as you can see.

I am a very simple woman, one who wants to create a memorable future .. a future where my daughter and my grandchildren can be in awe.. and can be proud of me.. as being unselfish human being. I wanna be remembered as having a great sense of humor.. but lately .. i have little humor to share.. because of the ppl i meet by being an owner by association. And of course .. it hit me the hardest when my chicken-shit neighbour did a “tang kee” dance in my house a month ago over nothing. Yes.. i’m still very sore about it.. but moreso i was a lot spooked by what happened.

I strive to remain positive by feeding myself with alot of positive information constantly… and once again i am back to square one as to how to make my life a memorable one and not an average one…??

Do you have an answer..???

Chloe is into the corner table in our living room these days. She would carry it everywhere she goes.. and sit under it.. or have it sitting in front of her.. or crawling under it.. but most of all.. just carrying it around alot.. and making us all very nervous.. for the corner table is quite heavy.

I’ve resorted to hiding it for now.. in our bedroom.. because i don’t want her to get hurt. And prolly bring out the toy that grammie bought for her.. when she was a baby .. so she can lug that around.. and it’s plastic.. so it’s not so bad.. and won’t hurt so bad..if she pokes herself.. somewhere.. or someone.

This afternoon.. i’m gonna go shopping with her.. to try find her a tent or tunnel.. to play with… weather permitting .. that is.. 🙂

I think i am that kinda person who like to be friends with ppl from a distance. Maybe i am crazy.. but being too close irks me.. !! it makes me wonder…. when my friend/s will start acting crazy on me .. like some that i’ve experienced here.

When i was in singapore.. i used to be too busy… and all my buddies.. were either from work.. or from my college years.. and most of them were too busy too. But we do keep in touch.. when we fly out to wherever they were .. or when they are in town.. for work. I also send out various holiday cards religiously .. and birthday cards too.

We catch up.. whenever we are in close proximity of each other.. by having luncheons.. and dinners. Our relationship has always been healthy.. and close.. and informative… exchanging contacts.. talking about family and work.. and the good ole days.. or ex-colleagues…. you know stuff.

So yes.. i think i do well.. with any relationship .. from a distance. I donch want my friends to be dropping in everyday.. and needing to share every spare minute they have with me.. just small dosage of some every other week would be fine.. 🙂
