Smokey Pubs and DreamGirls

Is it just me or is the weather really hot these pass few days? I mean, it's like I hop in for a quick shower, and by the time I hop out, I feel like hopping in again.
.
I can just imagine what I would feel if I had not chopped off all my hair. MAJOR mood swings! ButtercupTjin, I so feel like being with you in Manchester right now....*sighs*....
.
On another pregnancy note, I'm getting a little worried about my weight. My gynea said that a pregnant woman should put on an average of 10 - 15kgs from start to end of pregnancy. I'm now 5 and a half months and I don't seem to be putting on much weight.
.
Pre-pregnancy saw me at 45kgs.
Now, I'm only standing at 50kgs.
And the weird thing, I've been standing at 50kgs for the pass 2 months.
.
Weird right?
.
Especially when I've been eating soooooo much!
And not just anything, I've been stuffing myself with rice and noodles and fried stuff and whatever unhealthy fattening stuff you can think of, I'm eating.
.
Of course it's not like as if I'm purposely consuming unhealthy food lah. I'm saying that I have not been staying away from anything in particular, I eat whatever that comes along. So I'm really shocked why I'm still only 50kgs.
.
But the baby's been doing fine. She kicks me very actively so I don't think there's anything to be worried about her. I'm just worried about myself. Either I'm not seriously eating enough or the baby's been eating all my food and she has been putting on weight while I lost mine.
.
******
.
Decided that since I have not really been out for anything 'happening' since I got preggers, I decided to follow FattyHubby for KaraokeQueenHelen's birthday @ Bilique in Bangsar on Monday night.
.
.
I've never been to Bilique so I didn't know it was a closed up pub-cum-karaoke kindda place. I thought maybe if it was like one of those pubs that have an inside and outside area, and it gets too smokey for me, I could always take a quick nip out, take a breather and go back in.
.
ButtercupTjin always has weird poses
.
I almost died dot com (like how Cheesie would have said it)!
.
me and AnnUma
.
No, seriously, it was good to be able to meet up with so many people I have not seen in such a long time (so much so that I was hugging people that I couldn't even remember their names) but I really really almost killed myself.
.
.
Ok lah, not so drama that I will kill myself lah, but it was serious enough to put my baby at risk. Cause when we left Bilique, and I walked out, FattyHubby could actually hear my congested lungs while I breathe.
.
.
That was how smokey the place was and that was how much smoke I actually inhaled into my lungs....SECOND HAND TOO!!!!
.
Thank goodness for me, my lungs cleared up in 15 minutes and I had to keep forcing myself to cough it all out. So much lah for pregnant woman wanting to be happening.
.
Fail lah.
.
******
.
.
I was invited for the Malaysian DreamGirls Finale on tuesday evening @ the Oval, One U and decided to drag FattyHubby to go with me.
.
.
Honestly, I've never seen a single episode of the online reality show since it started, but since I got invited and I couldn't go to any other happening events in pubs, this was the next best thing to being happening.
.
I've become pathetic >_<'
.
Of course, I bumped into a few fellow bloggers and some celebrities there so it didn't make it seem all that sad lah.
.
.
The KinkyBlueFairy was there with HitzRudy and KennySia was one of the judges for the talent search. ElaineDaly was hosting the event so there was quite a huge crowd gathered around outside the barricaded areas.
.
.
From the begining of the event till the end, everyone was cheering for Hanis. And it was obvious. When ElaineDaly introduced Adeline, no cheers. When she introduced Cindy, no cheers. But before she could even call out Hanis' name, the crowd went wild!!!!
.
ChatterboxJane
.
"Confirm Hanis going to win la. No need to stay until end to find out also"
"Ya lorr....obvious lah"
.
But to everybody's shock and dismay (except for Cindy's family of course), not only did Hanis NOT win the title, but she only won 3rd place. 3rd PLACE! Imagine that.
.
Adeline got the 2nd place and Cindy took the title home.
.
sorry lah...a bit blur. didn't carry my canggih camera with me
.
Now everyone's calling the show Malaysian DreamBitch.
.
KJ and Donnie
.
I guess maybe in the modeling industry, it's easier to work with a non-Muslim cause they're more open to being dressed in more revealing and daring clothes.
.
.
But whether she won or not, I'm very sure she'd get signed up for a few contracts so Hanis, this is not the end of the world for you.
.

hey! we're suppose to be in 'this' together! i can't drink, you can't too!

spunk or dunk?

I dunno whether being pregnant makes you do crazy things but it sure is making me do things that I never for the world of me would think of doing...
.
I chopped off my hair and gave it the Halle Berry look.
.
YES, I DID!!!
.
It's short short short.....so short!!! And the worse part, my stylist taught me how to style it and when he did it for me, it looked pretty damn good, but when I tried it on my own back home, I couldn't do it. I just couldn't.
.
So much for Halle Berry.
.
Look more like Halle Hairy now....*sighs*....
.
But I do like it lah. Just need to learn how to style it properly.
.
Next up....hair colour!!!

Vanilla spice

I happily trotted out of the house this morning with a huge bottle of yogurt in one hand and a 1.5l bottle of vanilla coke in the other.
.
FattyHubby: You going camping issit?
Me: Aren't you glad that your wife knows how to look after herself *i was in a happy mood*
FH: What look after yourself?
Me: I'm taking in my proper nutrients lah. See...(happily points to yogurt)...taking my yogurt drink and see....(happily points to vanilla coke)....vanilla coke which contains vanilla which is a form of milk which is MORE calcium!
.
I happily smirked at him feeling absolutely proud of myself.
.
FattyHubby turns to me with an unexplainable look on his face...
.
"Am I talking to a moron or what? Vanilla is NOT milk lah!"
.
And he was right.
I googled it the minute I got into office.
Vanilla is a SPICE.
.
I was a stupid kid.
.
>_<'
.
On another note.....
.
I felt my baby's kick for the FIRST TIME EVER TODAY!!!
.
It's not like 'fluttering of butterflies' as is written in all pregnancy books.
It's more like soft kicks *thud*thud*thud*
And it's been going on since 3.30pm today and I can still feel her thud-ding away right now.
.
Thank goodness she's no kickboxer - yet.

new gadgets, pink and shakin' asses

So, I decided to spend my hard earned money on a 40GB mp3 player.
.
My excuse - so that my baby can listen to soothing music while she's sleeping in my tummy.
Although of course, as proven on Discovery Science, babies nestling inside the mother's womb cannot hear anything outside the womb except for a slight echo of the mother's voice.
.
Well, then I can still listen to the songs and sing to her =)
.
Reality - I've always wanted to get an mp3 player for no reason at all. Just wanted one.
.
FattyHubby gave me an earful when I showed my new toy to him. Not because he's stingy with MY money but because I promised him a week before that I won't buy anything expensive for myself anymore.
.
>_<
.
But hey, I bought you a BIG bottle of perfume! So forgiven lah...
.
Kit, I think you better call him personally and tell him not to bully me lah. I showed him your message and he just laughed...hmph!
.
Everyone's been asking me if I look really fat now. I don't think so. I mean, I can still wear my own tops, just had to switch my button-up pants for drawstring ones now.
.
"Then you must look like a fishball stuck to a chopstick!"
.
Idiot.
.
BlossomMich and ButtercupTjin are throwing me an all ALL PINK baby shower sometime in June and I'm so excited! My very first baby shower! And I'm inviting my guy friends and relatives. Break tradition a bit lah.
.
I can just imagine. Pink and white balloons. Pink paper serviettes. Pink paper plates and paper cups. Pink roses. Pink dresses. Pink pink pink!
.
FattyHubby will be soooo annoyed. Hahahaha! *evil grins*
He told me no way will our daughter be swath in anything pink. She will only wear macho macho colours.
.
*rolls eyes*
.
Am listening to my mp3 player now.
KJ asked: "So what soothing song you listening to now?"
Me: "Snoop Dogg and Eminem's Shake That Ass For Me"
KJ: -_-'

...

It's like I suddenly got nothing to write about cos I'm pregnant.
.
I thought lah maybe with pregnancy I would have more things to talk about but nothing seems to come to mind whenever I come into my blog.
.
FemmeFatale not so 'Femme' anymore lah...now can call FattyFatale dy.
.
My daughter (yes, I'm gonna have a baby girl!) damn drama wei! She's made me and FattyHubby go through a heart attack session at least once a month for the pass 5 months and it's not easy yah. All these emotional traumas.
.
I seriously have to think twice about going through this all over again if we plan for number two. But let me get through this first and see if I survive motherhood.
