      No hobbies and I seem to have lost my personal time.


      Whenever I am free, my time is spent with my girl. If she is not taking up my time, I will surf internet and update my blog.
      I guess all of us have to learn to love including our kids in our activities. Now that my girls are bigger, I do enjoy doing nails with them, shopping overseas and also laughing at their daddy.

      I also facebook with them. I do comment on their entries quite often, and challenge them on certain games. But I have very limited time to do that.

      I guess the rewards will come, and our hobbies do change with them here.

          My first impression to the topic question was: Hobbies?!? Where got time for hobbies?!


          And then, I realise that where I can possibly try and squeeze in some ME time, then I do enjoy...

          1. Reading
          2. Retail therapy
          3. Recreational swimming

                  Friend, you are good, still got 7 hobbies + number 8 surf http://www.kiaparents.com :salute: :celebrate:[/quote]Alamak, ks2me, u checking on me ah .... Come come, I break down for you, c if you can have a good laugh over it (if its worth laughing over it lah šŸ˜‰)

                  I love to:

                  1.read read and read

                  5 to 15 mins b4 I sleep almost every nite or in ILs hse while others watching tv (not being anti-social but rather catching up on magazine reading) btw, I have books bought like 3 yrs ago during pregnancy not even read yet :!: and I am still stocking up šŸ˜„

                  2.do yoga (just resumed after a long break)

                  Every tues at CC, also at home at least 3 other times a week, even if its for 30 mins šŸ˜„

                  3.shop shop and shop (but now more for DS's educational stuff)

                  This one I have to squeeze in time. Its so bad that I have made DH wait at MRT station aft work for 15 to 20 mins cuz I am rushing to pick him up cuz overspent time at book fairs, book warehouse sales etc... poor fellow ... But today, a milestone was achieved - went to Sembawang SC with 2 and a half year old DS who waited patiently while I browsed thru a bookshop and bought some sets of 3 for $10 bks. Then at Popular, he helpfully picked out the wrong chinese readers for me telling me \"mummi, this one rite?\" cuz I was looking out for a particular title :love: . Good news, now I can bring him along nxt time and no need to sneak time out anymore :lol:

                  4.watch DVDs (with DH)

                  Strictly fri, sat nites or eve of hols/hols šŸ˜„

                  5.watch tv serials

                  Weekdays here and there, not a regular follower ... not anymore 😢

                  6.KPO ard the ksp forum

                  Anytime if can ... šŸ˜‰

                  7.catch up with ex-colleagues and galfrds via phone

                      Used to like photography but find it a bit boring. Switch to videography about 2 months ago and still learning šŸ˜„ Editing is very time consuming and need lots of patience.


                      Eating is my hobby too .... Hubby always complains, why I must always travel so far to eat something I crave šŸ˜„ šŸ˜„
