In a few days, I will attend my first Baby's First Month celebration. The closest thing we have to a Western Baby Shower, the guests usually bring something useful for the Mum/Baby and leave with Dyed Red Eggs and Sponge Cake. I'm not sure of the relevance of the guest's gifts but, hey they're usually tasty enough. Maybe I'll find out this Sunday. Anyway a colleague for M/s L has just gone and had little Baby E, and I mentioned it to my Dad when we were out today. He said buying diapers was usually a good idea, and when I texted the New Mum, she said Huggies or Drypers. So a-hunting I will go over the next few days for Huggies or Drypers.

Today was a strange day. I woke up with the full intention of just staying home and ordering Pizza in, and ended up all over in places I never thought of. It first started when I woke up and realised my Dad was still home. He asked me to go to Johor Bahru with him, and looking at the sky (cause it seemed nice and clear today), said OK. So off we went to JB, and had fish porridge for lunch. Then we went grocery shopping, and he ran some errands. We managed to cross the border back to Singapore by 4:00pm, and straight away headed downtown to run more errands.
First stop was Change Alley, where I finally went to change money for my upcoming Japan trip with Joaquin. Then we headed to Marina Square to collect some home entertainment system for my Grandmama that she got with some credit card promotion. It was when my Dad was topping up his ERP card for the car that he got a call from my Grandmama that derailed the rest of our plans. She was in Plaza Singapura, and in a lot of pain. She wanted my Dad to come over and help her. She also mentioned she couldn't walk.
So off we went, first to a Church Friend's house to borrow his wheelchair. Recently he had gotten into an accident. While rounding a bend in his spiffy 500cc motorbike (I think), he had lost his balance and fell off the motorbike. The motorbike then fell on top of him, and broke his leg. Anyway, he had a wheelchair handy, so my Dad drove to his place to borrow it.
Then we headed to Plaza Singapura to pick up Mama and Matthew, who had gone there to watch a movie and have lunch. They were sitting in the food court.
Then we drove to Tan Tock Sing Hospital's Accident and Emergency department, which was quite a mess. We waited about 30 minutes for her the see the triage nurse. Then Mama got directed to the X-Ray department and we couldn't follow her any longer, so I took Matthew back to Mama's in a cab, then headed home myself.
I feel quite headachy now. Need to plan for tomorrow's relief teaching class at 1pm.
