A Mother Speaks

I started the second trimester and I guess the baby is fine inside my tummy. But I do get nervous at times thinking maybe something has gone wrong...No, I shouldn't get worried about these thoughts. The urine and QUAD results are enough to say the baby is perfectly healthy inside.

Lately, Tommy is getting pretty excited being a future daddy. I heard from a colleague of mine that a baby could hear their father voices more because of their fathers' "low-toned" voices. So every morning and night, Tommy almost always talk infront of my tummy... (it looks very cute and lovely ^^ I always wonder what kind of father will he be...)

Still, I feel more and more pregnant... My belly is getting bigger and bigger, I have to go to the bathroom more often that I'd like to, I get hungry more than the usual, have headaches and heartburns once in a while. But at least I don't (and I hope NEVER again~)throw up nowadays. I just don't feel good whenever I brush my teeth every after meals... It really feels awful and disgusting~ grrrrrrrr....

Next month, we'll get to know whether the baby is girl or boy. Tommy and I are really looking forward to it.... CAN'T WAIT~

Keeping Right

Have you ever experienced walking on the right side of a sidewalk when suddenly a rushing Korean run into your direction, literally? If you won't give way, you'll just hear that someone muttering something under his breath. Or have you ever had these cases like you were doing " patintero "(pah-tin-teh-roh) with the other person when you are walking? I find this behavior very bothering (sometimes odd and funny) especially when I use the stairways in the subway. Some subway stations have escalors going up installed at the left (e.g. Deokcheon Station). What is surprising is that they even have this sign: I told this to Tommy a few days ago and I just found out from him that they learn walking at the left side of the road in their elementary days. They even have this song that goes lilke this: "People keep to the left and cars to the right. Let's cross the street after looking right and left." So, it must be because of an old convention of walking on the le...

Samsung's AMOLED

Yup. I have a new phone and this is because of Chloe. She knocked out my phone so hard on the bathroom floor that made the monitor useless for two whole days! I went to a near Anycall service center and actually planned to repair it but they said that I had to pay for around 25,000won for a part replacement, I just thought of buying a new one since there are a lot of free phones nowadays and I had used my phone for more than two years. To pay 25k for an old, really full of scratches phone (because of Chloe) is too much for me since sooner or later I also need to replace it. In the end, it turned out not to be a free phone(850,000 won / $690). Tommy bought this phone for me saying that I need a "much, much better phone" because of his daughter...hahaha! and because I've been always using free phones since I came here in Korea (which are NOT really FREE PHONES because of the additional services included in the phone bill for the first few months). So, I resulted picking thi...
