For some reasons, I’ve became more and more maternal in recent months. I guess Kirsten and Seth definitely got that instinct going with the joys they brought into my family. Then since I’ve started living on my own overseas, I’ve become more domesticated.
I spend hours looking at houses in HK online, planning how to do up my own place, thinking about the areas I should stay in, counting my finances and cutting out pictures from magazines to form my own mood board for inspiration.
One of my ambitions about living in HK is to become a good cook. And when I have the time and my own place, I wanna try a new recipe every week.
Last week during China’s national day, some colleagues brought their families to the office to see the fireworks and I was so taken by Natasha, my colleague Karmen’s three-year-old.
She was so cute, she asked for siew mai when everyone was having KFC for dinner!
And most of all, the fact that Matt is so keen on kids too and I guess I’m a believer that a man who wants you to be the mother of his children is a man who wants to be with you for the rest of his life. Aw ok, mush. :P
Meanwhile, I have to channel my maternal-ness somewhere. And since I can’t just go out there to birth a baby, I’ve been obsessing over plants lately.
The lovely delphinium which I only paid S$1.50 for two stalks!
My lovely pot of flowers, which is not looking so good now actually. :( I'm worried my 2 weeks away may affect it furthermore.
The forms of life on my office desk but I still want more, more, more!
Ok, I’ll remind myself in the meantime that I should be married before having children – yes, yes. Yes, yes, I shall try not to have illegitimate children. I’ll try, I’ll try.
