Sister, Sister

Went hari raya shopping with my sisters today. Fun. Fun. Fun.

There's something special about sisters that I just can't explain.
If you have a sister, you'd already know what I mean.
If you don't, well.. nothing really comes quite close.

Bittersweet

I'm 90 days shy of the big day. At least that's what the doctor says.
It's a bit scary to think of how fast time flies. I can't believe I'm already into my third trimester. It will be over in a just a few short months.

It leaves me with mixed feelings. Excited about the baby. Yet also a little sad. I'm gonna miss being pregnant. The precious months of carrying a child seem to pass too soon.

Especially your first pregnancy. A voyage of discovery. Learning so much about how your body can change and adapt. It's amazing, really. To think of what the human body goes through.

Thoughts of labor I try to push to the back of my mind. Definitely not something I wanna think about right now. It's inevitable, I know. But I'll take it as it comes.

Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.

Boredom

These past few days have been a monotonous ride. I'm suffering the brunts of boredom. Restlessness. Mood swings. And just plain sheer grumpiness.

My poor sayang. Thank you for your patience.
Let's hope like all things, this too shall pass.

Exasperation

There are times when I hate being the responsible one. I wish I could just let go and let things fly. That someone would take over. But what if everything falls apart?

I'm a control freak aren't I?

Well when you're the eldest of six, sometimes it just comes naturally.

The thing is, it stresses me out. It's Sunday morning. And I'm already on the verge of pulling my hair out.
