Food and babies and pink cameras

I know the title sounds completely irrelevant to each other but trust me, this has been of great intrigue and amusement to me. I never knew that what you eat can affect whether your baby is a boy or a girl to some extent, amazing!

I was reading this a few days ago: : "Mom's diet may play role in whether baby is boy or girl"
Catch it at Yahoo News http://malaysia.news.yahoo.com/ap/20080425/twl-diet-baby-gender-1be00ca.html

Apparently, people who are trying for a baby can eat higher calorie food and a hearty breakfast including bananas, and not skip meals, will have a higher chance to get a baby boy. In a survey of 700 first-time pregnant mothers in the US, the group which ate higher calories (but still within healthy range) have a 56% chance of getting a boy compared to 45% for the group with mothers who ate less calories. So you want a baby boy, the best bet is to eat more, no dieting!

I've been telling my boyfriend and anyone who asks that i will want to have children in future. A boy and a girl :) It may sound scary to some boyfriends when their girlfriends ever broach this topic because most guys have commitment issues and are scared off easily when the topic of marriage or children ever pops up. But not my bf, and i'm really glad about it because that means he is serious about the relationship for the long run.

Pictures taken some time back in a photo sticker machine :)

I haven't taken any photo stickers since eons ago, so this was really nice but its even before my bf changed his specs, that was HOW LONG ago. Before Chinese New Year. Lol.

Oh yah, i like boys because it'll be so cool if they can become micro-copies of their dad, and a girl because i can doll her up AND teach her the right values (true beauty comes from the inside). In any case, i will also want them to be bilingual, well read, well spoken (as little singlish as possible) and pleasant kids who can hold a thoughtful conversation and make friends with others, rather than the characteristic trait of kids now who prefer to hiding in a corner by themselves to play their little handheld consoles than interact with others. And please, no tuition for every subject, i can't imagine how overworked children nowadays are!

ANYWAY, it's strange that i should write about these things but i'll very much like to be a super mum in future if i do have the chance. :)

And this has caught my eyes and i've been thinking maybe i shouldn't get an ipod nano and instead get my hands on a very very pink digital camera from Sony. It is so pretty it hurts!

I should get going to somehow force the e-commerce lecture notes into my head, it is so boring it HURTS to study it :( And i really should get packing soon, i've packed 70% of the stuff already but its the small things that takes more thought.
