Wow I sleep talk!

Few nights ago, my sister overheard me talking in my sleep, I said "Masters of Clinical Psychology". Haha, seems like I am really desperate in getting into the program.

Day 1 of 2015

So it's the first day of the year! Well, I guess to most of you, it's suppose to be a day where it's filled with excitement and stuff, but it was just an ordinary day for me.

I stayed at home, as usual, lying in bed and watching some episodes from House. Both my parents and sister were out today and so I had to take care of my bro's lunch. I remember watching one of Aeri's Kitchen videos on Youtube, and she made this Gochujang Spagetti that looks really yummy. Since I had leftover cooked pasta and Gochujang sauce, I decided to give it go with a little twist in it. 

It turned out pretty good. I like the flavour very much, but too bad I did not put enough sauce in it, if not it would be perfect!! It was amazing that my lil bro was quite satisfied with it, given that he's a picky eater and also didn't quite fancy the idea of putting Gochujang sauce into his meal!

Glad that I've learned another way of cooking pasta :) and hoping to learned more recipes!

Well that's about it! I better start planning this new year's resolutions. Goals await!

Lotsa love,
Flo

My dad recently purchased a new tablet phone and got quite active in Whatsapp.
Yesterday night he approached me and asked which was the "funny" emoticon.
As I was selecting the emoticon that was close to funny, I accidentally clicked on the "angel" emoticon.
I wanted to click on the delete button and my dad suddenly shouted "EHHHHHH".
He was so worried that I would hit the send button instead of the delete button. HILARIOUS!
I replied him by saying I know what I'm doing, I've been using the app for a very long time!

I'm guessing there will be a lot of these moments.

To my dearest lil' boo

It has already been a week since you have left the centre. And I am missing you every single day. I miss your smile, your warm hugs, and also you trying so hard to get my attention by climbing all over me. I really hope that the people in your new centre will treat you well, and that they have plans to help you improve. I am really happy that I have been part of your life, and that you did improve under our care and guidance. I will definitely pray for you lil' boo, and will remember all the great memories we had together i.e. you managed to learn how to drink through a straw. 

Love,

Flo

Stress alert!

When you feel the painful sensation on your fingers is getting worst, you'll know that you're currently on stress mode! On a 10 point scale, you will be rated as 10 (Very very stressful).

Yes I've been feeling stressful for these past few weeks, but I am trying my very best to solve my current problem. And yes, I have a nail biting problem. Don't judge me.

The hunt for the perfect gift

Last last Thursday was Little D's birthday. I didn't realise it was his birthday until he came to school that day. His helper was holding a huge white box, and at that instant I was in shock mode. In my mind I was like "Uh Oh" as I was 100% sure that the box contains a birthday cake, which means it's Little D's birthday!! AND it really was his birthday!!! We celebrated his birthday by gathering all the kids in the centre; everybody sang him the birthday song, blew out the candles and that was it. It was kinda sad to see him going home without anything, no presents at all as no one knows it was his birthday. So that day I told myself no matter how lazy I felt, I MUST GO OUT AND GET HIM A PRESENT!

I dragged two of my good friends out to the toy store to look for the perfect gift. It was a difficult mission as there were like approximately 1000 kind of toys there; Luckily I had a rough idea what he might like. However, there were toys that I'm 100% sure he will like were really expensive, totally far from my budget. If I had the money I wouldn't mind buying an expensive toy for him. I ended up buying a toy car that had a reasonable price tag; it can move forward by pressing the arrow button and also produces sound as well as lights! Took me nearly 5 hours just to find it!

I was actually quite worried as to whether he likes the toy car. As being his therapist for nearly half a year, he is very choosy in terms of selecting a toy that he likes. For example, he likes playing with toy vehicles a lot but if I were to give him a box of them, he would only pick one or two to play with. And I just can't seemed to find the aspects/ elements of that particular vehicle that he likes. But last Monday when I showed him the present, his eyes glowed and he straightaway requested for it, "Flo, I want car!" At that moment, I was very sure that he likes the present very much, and knew that I got the right gift for him. The best part is to receive a note from his mom the very next day saying he played with it all day! :)
