We have been calling our baby Zyan. And most likely, it will be that way. :P
And my resourceful wife found this.
Your First Name of: Zyan
Below is just a brief analysis of the first name only. For an analysis and assessment of your full name, see our Name Report service for further details. Remember to give us your review below. Thank you!
- Zyan as a first name gives you a very independent nature, yet you are friendly, approachable, and generous.
- You can be a spontaneous, expressive, and talkative person.
- Generally you are good-natured, though at times you can be rather blunt and sarcastic.
- This name incorporates creative, artistic, and musical abilities, and there would be an element of originality in all that you do.
- You like to do things on the spur of the moment without planning or prior arrangements.
- Your spirits are buoyed up greatly by encouragement and appreciation.
- Though the name Zyan creates the urge to be creative and original, we stress through a scattered and emotional nature, you suffer frustration.
- This name, when combined with the last name, can frustrate happiness, contentment, and success, as well as cause health weaknesses in the liver, bloodstream, and in tension or accidents to the head.
So fun so fun! :)

Baby Name
Names. Headaches.
The other time, I was blogging about choosing chinese names for my little BabyTay.
I think in the end, for chinese names, we'll check with some other experts.
Meanwhile, the so-called english name also has to be thought of.
Now. What should it be?
We don't want too complicated names, something simple is good.
Like Simple Simon. hahaha
Anyway, a few names came up to my mind.
William
Kenneth
Rayson
I think it's kinda cool to use "Z" as beginning of his name.
Then, "Zyan" comes to mind.
Sort of like a variation from "Ryan".
We both quite like this name.
With that, chinese name can sound close to it, perhaps something like:
郑智贤
郑世贤
郑志贤
郑挚宪
Maybe I'll come up with a table for 2nd and 3rd character, then slowly match.
Then let the expert choose a better one for me. :)
Zyan he shall be!
For now ...

4. Pampers
5. Clothings (shirts, pants, socks, and what!?!?!?)
6. Milk bottles
7. Sterilizer

The Weekend
Weekends have been busy lately.
Saturday, went to Orchard Road. It's been a long time since we go walk walk around Orchard area.
Anyway, we went there to check out some things. Baby stuff.
Before that, went to my chinese chiropratic master to have my bone structures checked. Oh well, this time, it wasn't as painful as the last time I visited him.
Does that mean my body has been adjusting well already? I like to think it that way. :D
Oh yes. We went Orchard.
Went to Robinsons, and then to Takashimaya.
We went to check out prices for some baby stuff, like baby cot, stroller, sterilizers and bottles etc.
Need to get ready for these stuff to be purchased anyway.
After walking to Takashimaya, both of us felt damn tired siah. Age has been catching up on us. Ahhhhhhhhhhh!
So took a rest a Mos Burger, and had a snack meal. It's been ages since we last ate Mos Burger too. hehehehe
Came back home, rest. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
On Sunday, brought Precious to see the vet again, for her medical review.
Although Precious is now able to walk more proper, we can see that she still drag her feet sometimes.
The vet says Precious is about 50% recovered only. Continue to put her on steroid, and gave her some anti-biotics as well.
She's been licking her right-hind leg until it seems to be a little infectious.
At least it's good to see that she's able to run and walk in her new style. :P
Well, I guess this coming weekend is going to be similar. Walking and shopping around for baby stuff, and Precious has another review on Sunday.
How similar huh!?!?!? :P

Pitiful Precious
It had been another hard-to-sleep night yesterday.
Woke up a few times just to take a look at Precious.
See how she's taking it with her injury.
On the surface, she seems to be able to walk more actively herself now. But on closer look, it is also obvious that she cannot control her right-hind leg well yet.
Most of the time she'd be dragging her right foot with her.
She's now like a crippled dog like that.
Amazingly, she still managed to jump up the sofa a few times, although we tried to prevent her from doing so.
It's not easy to get them do their bed-rest, as dogs will be dogs.
Even when somebody walked past our door, and if Precious hears them, she will still run to the door and bark at them.
She simply forgot/ignored her injury.
But at least she appears more active than yesterday, which is a good sign.
Probably she's getting accustomed to three-legged movement.
And on top of her injury, we saw that she had some bloodshot eyes in her left eye.
Have to monitor this as well, and if need to, may have to visit the vet again.
So poor thing right?
Awwww. Poor little Precious.

Our Precious
Yesterday was quite a busy day, sort of.
We had lunch with Karinna's group of friends. It was at Tung Lok Restaurant at Paramount Hotel.
It was a little harder to find, but the food is generally ok.
We had Dim Sum for lunch, and had a Peking Duck.
Yum yum.
Of course, they will chat chat chat like don't know what, and by the time we left the place, it was like 3pm.
Hmmmm. Talkative huh? :P
After that, we drove down to Lok Yang Avenue, the other end of Singapore at Tuas area. Damn far.
There was a Toy Warehouse Sale, so we went to to see if can find any suitable things (not toys) for our coming little boy.
Well, it was quite an unfruitful trip there. The only thing fruitful is that we roughly know the price of some of the things we probably will need to buy soon.
Then, we went down to Kaki Bukit, to check out more baby stores.
Saw some baby cots, strollers, sterilizers etc. Need to take note of some of these so that we can do some purchases when there's sales going on somewhere.
Reached home at about 7.15pm, my sisters came over to my home to play mahjong with my monther-in-law. I didn't even know they were coming. hahaha
And we went home just to get 2 bottles of red wine, as we're going out to a BBQ somewhere at Changi. More specifically, it's the SAFRA Country Club.
Karinna's colleague was having a birthday celebration there.
We reached there about 8pm, took some BBQ food. Rather ok, the home-made curry was nice. And then people started playing mahjong as well.
We didn't play initially, but some kakis need to leave for home, so we took over the seats for a while.
In the end, lost some money. You win some, you lose some.
Just that I usually lose more. :P
By the time we reached home, it was like past midnight.
Bathed and then watched TV, as Karinna waited for her bird nest to be ready for consumption.
It was around 1am or so, our little Precious jumped off the sofa, and then we realised something was wrong with her right-hind leg.
It was pretty stiff, and she was limping as she walked off!
Alamak! Si mi dai ji?!?!?!!?
Then I carried her to the sofa, and layed her down. Checked here checked there checked everywhere, her legs seem ok to me, I don't feel anything weird with it, nor did she yelp for pain or anything.
Massaged a while for her as well.
Still, limping as I put her down on the floor.
No choice, put them into their sleeping area, and then decided to bring her to the Vet in the morning.
Somehow, Karinna cried as we were going to our bed.
*sob sob*
She had quite a bad night, trying to check internet for Vets' place. We placed the dogs in our room for the night, and we know that our Precious was very uncomfortable.
So morning came, checked and called a few Vets. Most places are closed.
In the end, found one which is opened on Sunday, and appears to have pretty good reviews from some forums in the internet.
So we called, and went for the earliest appointment.
The Vet checked and checked and checked, and also did an X-ray for Precious. In the end, the conclusion is that there is no fracture, nothing appears to be wrong with the bones etc.
A likely cause would be the soft tissues of the nerves, which would not be captured from the X-ray films.
Possile to have some swollen tissues around the spine area that causes her to loose her motor skills on that leg.
Need to monitor her, and was advised not to let Precious did high impact activities like jumping or standing on her hind legs.
But they are dogs, how to bed-rest them right? Hmmmm. That's a hard thing to do.
She was also perscribed some steroids, but if the situation were to worsen, may need to do a quick MRI scan to see if need any surgery to be done.
What a frightening thought huh?
Precious, be good, and be strong, and then walk properly again!

Our Boy
This morning, went for the check-up with Dr Chang.
This time, there are many things for him to check.
As he checked and told us about this and that, and that and this. Actually, catch no ball.
Only thing that registered well enough is: Good. Good. Good! Very well!
Obviously, that's great music to our ears. :)
And of course, the other information that we could register better is, the baby is 321grams today. :P
Can buy 4D lor!
Well, look at the mommy. Does she look like a mom-to-be?
Beautiful gorgeous mommy! *wink wink*
Actually, when I was trying to take a video of the scan, the doctor told me no need to do so, as they would give us the pictures.
Yeah. But I was taking photo Doc! :P
Took a long time for it to be uploaded. :D

Can't help feeling touched watching it.
For a friend who's undergoing chemo.
Evelyn, press on!

胡杨林 - 香水有毒
Today, I heard this song again.
I always keep forgetting the title of the song. But this time, I remembered.
It's one of those songs that, once you listen, you must love it.
I do.
我曾經愛過這樣一個男人
他說我是世上最美的女人
我爲他保留著那一份天真
關上愛別人的門
也是這個被我深愛的男人
把我變成世上最笨的女人
他說的每句話我都會當真
他說最愛我的纯
我的要求幷不高
待我像從前一樣好
可是有一天你說了同樣的話
把別人擁入懷抱
你身上有她的香水味
是我鼻子犯的罪
不該嗅到她的美
檫掉一切陪你睡
你身上有她的香水味
是你賜給的自卑
你要的愛太完美
我永遠都學不會

邓丽君 - 但人愿长久
中秋节快乐！
好歌！ 好词！
苏轼的《水调歌头》。 好美！
邓丽君的版本。好听！
Here's a 'translation' of the lyrics in English.
明月几时有 把酒问青天
不知天上宫阙 今夕是何年
我欲乘风归去 又恐琼楼玉宇 高处不胜寒
起舞弄清影 何似在人间
转朱阁 低绮户 照无眠
不应有恨 何事长向别时圆
人有悲欢离合 月有阴晴圆缺 此事故难全
但人愿长久 千里共嬋娟
好歌！ 好词！
