Elaboration on housewives

Haha.
this is funny.
look what I FOUND!

HOW TO BE A GOOD HOUSEWIFE!

A housewife is a woman who enters into a mutual agreement with her husband that outlines their division of labor. The husband works and earns income while the wife remains at home looking after the home and, if applicable, the kids. Many couples decide on this arrangement because they prefer it over other arrangements.
There's more to being a housewife than just picking up dirty socks and underwear. It's about creating a home environment that any man would love to return to, and if you take care of yourself as well? That's more than just bonus, it's the way to make a relationship work.

Steps
Make sure you have meals on the table at a regular time. This doesn't necessarily mean the moment he walks in the door, since many men work different shifts. However, if he knows he can depend on you to feed him at a certain time, then he'll be much happier. If you learn how to cook, he'll be much happier, but if you're experimenting with a new recipe having a back-up microwaveable dinner just in case is always a good idea. (SEE WHICH MEANS PHOEBE HAS TO LEARN TO COOK!.. i can't cook so yeah..i don't fit here.. haha..)
Be aware of what your man needs when he comes home. Many men need space when they come home from a hard day at work, so if this is your husband or boyfriend, give him the space he needs when he arrives home, whether it is to chill out in front of the TV or to read the newspaper, let him decide. Preparing his favorite drink as he arrives through the door will only endear you to him more. Other men, however, wish to speak of their day before they relax. If this is the case, listen to what he has to say and let him give you cues as to when he's ready to listen to how your day went. Finally, some men like to spend time with his friends for some male bonding after work. Step back and let this happen as needed.
Listen to what he has to say. Sometimes a man will want to gripe about his day and how his boss is a jerk or whatever. If you have some advice for him, ask him if he wants it, and if he says no, let it be.
Keep the house tidy and pleasant. There is no excuse for your man to come home to a mess, so make friends with your vacuum and feather duster.

Tips
Maintaining your appearance, while not essential in being a housewife, does certainly help remind your husband that you are still a woman and not simply a housekeeper. Pampering yourself by taking care of your appearance will not only help you feel good about yourself, but the man in your life will notice as well. Wear makeup, if that's your style, and clothes can be both pretty and practical. (see shopping for new clothes is ALWAYS beneficial!!!)Long, full skirts and well fitting jeans can do double duty as you go around the house doing the necessary chores as well as keeping you looking sharp for when your special someone comes home. Keeping your hair tucked up under a bandana during the day and giving it a brush through with a spritz of water or hairspray just before he comes home will help you feel like a woman even after a day spent scouring floors and toilets. He'll notice the effort, even if he doesn't say anything.

Warnings
Do not become overly obsessed with keeping things his way. If you do this, you will risk losing your own happiness. Try to keep the two equal. Balance his happiness with your happiness.
Remember, you're his partner, not his slave. Your own happiness is just as important as his. Make sure he's pulling his weight in the relationship and taking care of you and your needs as well.

haha. phoebe finally posted!!! yay..since we're going out today we should celebrate! and take photos! and CELEBRATE! haha.. and see..guys always have to pull their weight! and pamper us girls.. i think.. haha.. aiyah.. housewife quite nice what phoebe..and van! so funny! flowery night dresses! SOOOO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!:)
HAHAHAHA..
see you all later la:)

on our old mommy

HAHAHA PLEASE read the post under this one first if you want to know what is going on!

yeah FINALLY our old mommy posted on the blog, which i think we should really celebrate, we can call the party something like "welcome mommy, finally, to the world of technological advancement!"

this entry shall be my practice GP essay with the topic "Is Phoebe indeed a housewife? Discuss."

if you read the entry below this one, you would have seen how she has listed out reasons why maeyue tina and sally are actually potential housewives, and as expected from a person who-scored-so-high-for-prelims-compre she listed very valid reasons. (ay i dont mean to be sarcastic or anything k, you really scored super damn high! i got like 18.5!!! LEGEND!)

BUT proving how other people are potential housewives doesn't make her any less housewify than she really is!!!!

and i shall be elaborating.

phoebe, do you know why we call you housewife?

its because you are so auntie!

in these days and age, who goes around yelling at people "ay dont play with food, dont waste your food lah" and gives them deadly stares and disturbing frowns that are likely to add more (or already added) wrinkles to your face?

who walks around the cluster singing random chinese songs and all of sudden bursts into unstoppable strings of mouse-like giggles to herself while other people sit there and stare?

WHO WEARS A FLOWERY DRESS TO SLEEP ANYMORE? =)) =)) =)) (except for aunties?)

who, in one moment, says "aiya i shall not gossip" with all her cool maturity and grown-up-ness and whatever and the next moment immediately asks about sally's "suitors" and all possible random gossip stories in the world??

who periodically takes out her heels and puts them on and walks around the room grinning to herself deluded in illusion "i feel so tall hehehe :D :D :D", or watches random movies and happily grinningly turns to me and says "ey her hair not as nice as mine right"

and EXCUSE ME, you DO go "oooooooohhhhhhhhh sooooooooooooooo niceeeeeeeeeeeeee" especially when looking at forever 21 clothes and somehow you always choose to love the pieces that are, uhm, very auntie.

plus, what we do are NOT childish acts! we are just pure and innocent energetic youths with a passion for all the good things in life! we don't go "shhhhhh" or yell at people for little things like laughing a bit too loud!!

we dont immediately vomit out descriptions of all kinds of random diseases and say "oh no i think i have _____________ eh!!!!!!!!!!" <---- fill in the blank with whatever kind of diseases you want, from schizophrenia to errr diarrhea maybe =))

and you watch Lizzie Mcguire over 10 times =)) which is quite an amusing record considering how BIMBOTIC and CHEESY the movie is.

so yeah phoebe, you ARE an auntie, just admit it. and being an auntie makes you a perfect auntie housewife, unless you want to be a lonely no-one-wants-to-marry one!!!!

and the difference between tina maeyue and sally's housewife is, they are young housewives who know how to make use of their youthfulness to erm BENEFIT from their husbands ;)) while phoebe belongs to the type that is probably married for so long the passion and romance already gave way for "oei why today you come home late huh? oei i very tired today you go and cook your own food! oei why today you got smell funny perfume one?? oei where's your salary for this month you think i no need to spend anything is it? oei cut my toe nails faster! oei pass me the remote control and go buy some supper snack! oei go clean the house! oei go feed the kid, he been crying for like the past 3 days! so annoying! i hate kids! arghhhhhhhhhh!" *then continues singing wang lee hom songs while emtionally and physically abused husband runs around doing all the chores*

So that's the definition of Phoebe: old-fashioned and old-aged housewife who likes to yell at her husband(s) and kids(if still surviving) and is in severe self-denial.

if they give this kind of topic for GP i think we will all be scoring 30/30 for content loh :D

lalala nIc3 w33K3nD 3V3rYb0dYzZz* ` ` ~~ i wonder how some ppl manage to type like THAT ALL THE TIME?

THings

Some people keep on nagging beside my ear to blog. And my ear can't take extreme ringing sound frequencies of bimbo-tic people that well so ya, it eventually surrendered and told me to write something.
Ok, I would like to say that art, while it is a rather fascinating subject for artistically-inclined people, it kills people too!!!!! It does so by depriving people of 1, 2, and even 3 days of sleep and turning them into a ferocious walking zombie the following day. Also, because of art, or more specifically, helping an arts person, my arms just suddenly got cramps because of constantly erasing and scrubbing the stubbornly clingy pencil marks on the wall. Maybe I'll just think of that as burning away arm flabs.... I might feel better!!
So van... congrats for coming out alive!!!!!!

Anyways, i just want to say that the advertisement on TV is a really bad thing. It makes everything seem so sumptuously nice. And you know, it's a really ironic thing. WHen I see the KFC ad on fried chicken, I actually crave for Macs chicken wings!!! Hahaha! So KFC actually encourages me to go to Macs to eat instead!!!!!!!

Ya, I know I'm rambling off!!!!

And by the way, STOP calling the person whom you always call a housewife because I am not and because I do not aspire to be one!!!! Just because I don't go along with all your bimbotic "ooohhhhh, sooooooooooooooooooo niiiiiicccccccccceeeeeeeee" and childish acts DOESN'T MEAN that I am a HOUSEWIFE!!!!

Hmnnn.... the potential housewive would definitely have to be Mae Yue, Tina and Sally.
WHy you ask me?


Mae Yue: She is a shopahollic and desires to a tai-tai- I-get -what-I-want life. SHe wants to marry a rich husband and spend his money --> so typical auntie lah, cummon!!!! I associate aunties with housewives so ya, Mae Yue suit it perfectly. So the definition of 'Mae Yue': a bimbotic housewife who has some problems sitting still and not talking.

Sally: too nice alr. Not naughty enough. THat's why she is motherly. And she actually gets into ...hmnn... relationships quite easily (hint hint <-- all Sally's suitors), which means she will .. DUH, stay home and do the chores if the husband wants her to lah!!!! Ya ya, I know she is clumsy with chores and knows nothing but cooking instant noodles. But skills can be learnt, and with her smart and intelligent brain, she can definitely do it!!!!
Definition of 'Sally': a Vietnamese housewife rejected by the mean Vietnamese mother-in-law (because cannot do chores what!!!) but loved by the Vietnamese husband.

Tina: She has auntie and housewify dreams!!!! SHe wants to ride on a cruise and not work and not study and not have to think about anything! She hates reading confusing books and constantly rereads Harry Potter. Basically, the only way to do this is to be a housewife!!!!!!!!!!
Definition of 'Tina': the aspiring housewife who wants to deprive children of harry potter books (cause she likes to keep them to herself and she dusn like children --> she will NEVER give the book to the poor kid)!!

So my conclusion: MORE PEOPLE ARE MORE ADEPT AT BEING A HOUSEWIVE THAN ME! sO STOP CALLING ME ONE!!!!!!

ERASER!

HAHA. what?!?!?!?!?!
A BETTER HOUSEWIFE THAN PHOEBE??!?!??!
I only know that using a wet cloth is better cuz I have to do it at home to clean the walls. Plus, we had to clean the wall that time before some school thing. Tina, remember? We had to clean the walls near the podium because Mr. Bek made us do it that time. We used tissue paper remember? Oh yeah remember the math questions? Alvin and Bekky..
