Last day of April...let me do some updates.

1) Finished marking students' assignments (the more impt ones) last week and just got their MYE paper. Marking never ends. -_-|||

2) I have sort of decided to take no pay leave after my maternity leave and go back to school in Sem 2 2012. Sounded it to my HOD not long ago and will confirm it again with her during my Mid Year work review in June. Actually I am quite heart pain about the money...cos the NPL will affect many many things but the idea of being with my bb till he/she is about 9 months is wonderful.

3) Except for my growing belly, there hasn't been much 动静 from bb yet. Gender will most probably be revealed this coming Friday during the detailed scan. I hope bb is healthy and doing well inside :). Will start my shopping spree very soon...girl girl then confirm will spend more.

4) I am quite proud to say that till now, I am quite an independent and strong preggie. I take the stairs, squat, bend and do whatever I can do myself. Except for lifting heavy items, I try not to trouble others. Not because I feel paiseh to ask for help, but I hold to the belief that life should be as per normal. I have a pregnant colleague who expects others to help in everything. She has her own concerns but I decided I will not be like her.

Food wise...I eat almost everything. The only thing which I would love to have but haven't had is Kopi and I try to limit my Koi intake to once a month.

5) June will be exciting. Shopping for bb and doing up the bb room..can't wait.

Btw...I am 18+ weeks now!
