mondays,panda cam & grandma ...

A short little entry seeing how tired i am .. as my previous blog indiccated i have been baking all day but inspite of being tired i had lots of fun none the less. Its Monday - a good Monday at that and the favorite thing for me about Mondays is cos its Panda Cam day for a whole 5 days .. If there is anything i look forward too is the antics of mei lan the panda cam and her mom Lun Lun . She is always asleep when the cam starts i guess must have been a long weekend for her heheee poor baby .. I love how her mom watches over her and sometimes id gasp when she falls but this little panda gets right back up talk about a strong little thing .. .. Its nice watching her grow progess even though the pandas like half way around the world ...

Anyways today was the first day of the week long school holidays too - first term break. In Singapore school holidays go by terms - the first term is in March which is from 10th March to 18th March and then in second term school holidays are from 26th May to 24th June, another one in September which is from 1st September to 9th September and the year end school holidays which is from 17th November to January 2nd 2008. I think the year end holidays are what kids and teachers alike look forward too .. Ive noticed we sometimes look forward to school holidays and when it comes we wish we were in school lol .. especially when there is not a whole lot to do ..

Anyways i spoke to my mom and my cousin today and it looks like grandma is not getting surgery after all. She was admitted to the hospital this morning to have checks to see if she is able to get surgery ... Well the doctor is advised againts it seeing she is 87 years old and also her dementia does not help either. On top of tha the anestatic would be too strong for her so finally no surgery for grandma.... The surgery in itself is a minor one to lift the top layer of her retina and insert contacts so she can see well but i guess she is still fine without it..

Yahoo messed up big time today too for some strange reasons messages didnt go through and this isnt the first time either. I got a little upset cos it was an IM from someone i havent spoken too in a while seeing he was making a transition for work in Iraq not military tho .. anyways good news is he is fine and is within a secured zone . so i pray God keep him safe and everyone else who are currently serving in Iraq being it military or civilizian ...

So all in all was great start to the week cupcakes good news and pandas ....
