On Bray's 8th Birthday, I came home early wanting to celebrate his birthday with a cake. But I started feeling unwell, feverish and vomited immediately right after dinner. Hub was sick too. We could only sing a birthday song for him. We suspected it was stomach flu. More than 10 of us caught it from last weekend.
Gene is staying with us for a week. He was intending to change to another company. All went well and he's leaving for Taiwan in 2 more weeks. Such a rush but it was expected.
Bev had been crying every morning. She did not want to go to school. She'd held onto me tight and said "I love you mama, can you please no go work?" "Please come fetch me early". I love you Baby but work is tough. I've been having so much to juggle and had so little time. On another day, she said "I want to go gor gor's school" and plead with us to bring her out to breakfast. She loves to break the eggs during breakfast.
Brayden said he is not like that at all. But I recalled, the same drama coming from him for more than 2 years when he went to childcare. The separation anxiety was the same.
We were talking about music revolution in the past and got reminded of how we played with cassettes (reading the lyrics of the small prints on a piece of paper that came in a plastic see-through box), whenever we love a song - we'll "rewind" it using a pencil. Or push it in the cassette player in the opposite direction for one song and turn it again back. I always played the Westlife, Backstreet Boys, Nsync, Spice Girls, 911, M2M. Those were quite popular boy and girl bands.
We also had CD's and DVD's with the Walkman. That's when everything got easier. Then there was Ipod. The first one that Hub got for me from his first few salary in Singapore. It was an apple green one. I loved to play my songs on it while I was at university.
After that, came Youtube and Spotify. Everything got so much more convenient.
