Finally it rained... after so many days of hot and humid weather!! But bad timing for the rain to pour coz it happened when my sis and i were abt to leave e hse! sweats... but gotta use the Moo Moo Umbrella that wee and von got for me from BKK! will take a pic of e moo moo umbrella and post it up soon... hehe!! Nevertheless, even have umbrella also cannot withstand the power of nature! One small umbrella to shield an oversize preggy woman and a ger carryin a big bag and lappy bag??! NO NO... bad idea and simply chaotic! Both of us were soaked from head to toes when we boarded the mrt... sighz... let's not say Jovan coz he is always soaked in my aminotic fluid! LOLZ....
Came to know that there is a guide book for single mum tat was launched on the 9th sept by the woman wing of NTUC! in the newspaper report of Straits Times, they will distribute 2,000 copies of the book to agencies and family service centres (FSC)!! Spent the whole afternoon getting numbers of FSC and giving them a call... all gave me negative answers like "We are not linked to NTUC!" or "I have not been told about the arrival of such guide book..." so frustrating!!! ended up sendin an email to NTUC itself... hope can receive a positive response soon!
As i was lookin for information online, i came across this website tat is set up by 2 single mums! :) i enjoyed exploring their site but what caught my attention was this section...
http://www3.ntu.edu.sg/home2004/foos0010/flyinsolo/birthcert.htmlTheir responses were simply funny!! i think they are juz not into the idea of having the father's name in the birth cert! i had a gd luff... at least i noe i am not alone pondering over such stuff!
Besides surfing the net for single mum stuff... i also had been quite active in Facebook! i signed up for an account years ago.. but is onli till now tat i finally decided to learn to use this website! i practically had 90 over invitations to play games, receive online gifts, take quizzes etc thru Facebook! Well... spend some time ignoring most of it coz the invitations were super long time ago!!
Came across an ex-silkair crew facebook account! She left the airline due to personal reasons which i rather not mention here without her consent. She is a single mum too... had many ups and downs in her life and i am juz glad she is happily attached now. Well... i must say.. LOLZ... the guy has the looks but i am sure after what she had been thru, are his inner qualities that capture her heart! :) But what caught my attention in her profile was the Proverbs 3:5-6 (bible)!! it was the exact verses i took a personal liking and seek strength in when i was going thru the lowest time of my 25 yrs! As i was telling my frenz, the hurt and sorrow in juz one yr of 2009 is so much more intense than my 24 yrs on earth added up!
I am living through a weird family environment... i braved thru a pretty dramatic childhood... i picked myself up from a sucky JC A levels outcome... i held on strong thru the last few yrs of my unwell dad... i accepted my dad's passing on... but none of these prepared me for what had happened this yr! how life changing 2009 had been... started out with a life growing inside me and soon it will end with a life outside of me...
Too many events that everything juz spinned out of control... i can't find any reasons for anything... tat is when these verses came to me...
Proverbs 3:5-6 >>>>>
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths."
