some random updates..
it has been awhile since i updated my blog..
my hubby bought 2 of these..
i dun know what is this called..
i named it "tiny plant in bottle"..
mine looked like the bottle in the centre (2nd picture)..
he told me that the plant inside the bottle will grow as time goes by
althought there is light, there is no water or air
i wonder how is it possible as the bottle is sealed
i saw some pictures from the net showing the plant out grow the bottle
and it had to be opened and transfer to a bigger pot
amazing right? or am i too mountain turtle?
looking forward to the following dates:
03 sept 2008: Seminar @ suntec (1/2 day AM)
it's about the enhanced marriage and parenthood package
it was the hottest topic in office since the rally by our PM Lee
16 weeks of maternity leave, 6 days childcare leave
more cash bonus, more cash incentives, more tax rebates
i am not too sure abt the exact details
as far as i m concern, maternity and childcare leave matters to me
this affect me from a employer's view point
in deeper thoughts, does this package really boost child birth?
i cannot deny that the additional perks are rather tempting at the first sight of it
but at the end of the day, isn't the time, committment and responsibilites towards the child matters most
in our grandma and mama's era, they not as well off as what we are today
and yet, they are like child bearing machine and reproduce many many childern
why is this so?
women from the olden days are full-time housewives, with just the hubby earning a living..
they have all the time in the world to take care of children
women in modern days play many roles..
wife.. mum.. daughter.. career women..
how to multitask in 24 hours!
to give up the job, take care of kids full time? with this kinda standard of living, how to!
putting dollars and cents aside, is the women ready to give up the satisfaction derived from her job to be a full-time mum? hmm.. well u think~
03 September 2008:makan and shopping spree with jennifer! (1/2 day PM)
