Our First Antenatal Class
Just a summary of the class, me and hubby came half an hour early so we waited and watch Mr. Bean on tv. Alex was disappointed lah when they off the tv to start the class....haha. Then Sis. Choong switch on a classical Mozart music which she says soothe the baby and make the baby intelligent. Well, at first i was a bit doubtful but then my baby starts to flutter around in my tummy...so i think Mozart does work (emm...i think my sis in law or my sis has a mozart CD somewhere). Then the class started, there were only 10 couples (for me smaller class is much better)...Sis Choong gave lectures using Power Point....and gave us lots of useful tips. The biggest tip was do not let the Confinement Lady bully us and take control of our baby (which i truly agree). She also state that there is no reason why we should not wash our hair for a month during the confinement (yes!!). After an hour of lecture, then we took a break for refreshment,...this to my pleasant surprise...they provide us fried rice, curry chicken and 2 types of kuih malay. Alright, this is really worth it...hehe. As usual me and alex are the first one to attack the food and the last one to leave the food....haha. Ok for me , understandable lah coz i am 7 months pregnant, i think for Alex...he is supporting me by eating together -gether lah. The last hour, she show us a video on that babies do form their personality early in the womb and a video on natural delivery through the vagina (alex face became a bit green after that ). Overall, it was a good session....but i think i got a bit of a backpain. I think they really should change the chairs. So I would recommend that first time parents should attend this antenatal class or from other places to prepare themselves...and they do give comprehensive handouts on everything related to pregnancy such as how to breastfeed, pain labour relief options, etc...If that still does not attract you...well at least they give satisfactory refreshments.

Recaps on my Favourite Reality Shows!
Recap worth to mention for Philly Audition
- a sparkly woman cursing bad words at Simon (I thought Simon put her down very politely and she over reacted when she came out of the audition). I think she just wanted to get popular by acting that way...I pity the animals if she does eventually become a vet.
- The guy who wore the Jabba the Hut custome....haha....he even shaved off his chest hair for the judges. What was he trying to prove.
- The creepy guy who composed a very creepy disturbing song for Paula. If i were the judges....I would have asked the security gate to kick him out when he started to use the &*%$ word. How does Paula sleep at night after hearing that creepy song...give me the shivers.
- Of course there were good singers, for instance...this pretty lass who does martial arts, breed horses and does cage fighting (em...what is that??) was very good when she sang Amazing Grace.
Recap worth to mention for Texas Audition
- The asian guy who wore a elaborated feather costume with Simon written on his hat. He told the judges that he adored Simon coz Simon name is everywhere on the media...haha...and he even created a song for them ( i think it was for Simon) called "My brothers forever". Quite a catchy song....even Randy and Paula (did she tried to dance ....looks like she lost her professional dancing moves) serenaded to his songs. A very nice guy and still adored Simon after he was rejected by him
- The girl who can imitate all the singers voice like Britney Spear and Shakira. Wow she really sounds like Britney Spears. But she can sing on her own very well too. Thank goodness she got through to Hollywood
Ok...enough about American Idol, now I will give a brief recap on the Amazing Race Asia 2. Wow..this time my heart was really thumping for the Thailand team (Natassha and Paul). This time there was an intersection where 2 teams have to work together; Phillipine models team up with Singapore team, Malaysian with Malaysian team and Thailand have to wait for the married couple team who was behind 5 hours. I know I should be supporting the Malaysian teams but I am not a big fan of the dancing mums but i am okay with Vince's sisters. Thank goodness that Natassha and Paula got through...phew. Furthermore, i got worried when one of Vince's sister started to have memory loss after the 10m dive...that was scary. As expected...the models got first, the singaporean got 2nd, dancing mums got 3rd, vince sisters got 4th and hip hip horray, the best buddies girls in a nick of time arrived 5th. So the married couple got eliminated (terri and henry). Have to wait for next week
