Yippie Yippie Home Sweet Home

If the above pic appeared similar to you, that's because i m back in my own cot....Yeah, today's my homecoming, having discharged from hospital. So i m back in my familiar pose.

Before that i was at great grandpa's house to visit my fans..*oops i mean family members. Great grandpa's been sick ever since his China trip and mummy was saying how he has grown haggard and frail by at least another 10 years. Luckily, great grandpa still looked as cheery and same as before. Mum! Exaggeration is the mother of all panics okie !

That's all for now, no other pics to share as i gonna zzz...........see ya

A to Z of my Name

Just the other day, dad was discussing with mummy over my name. Apparently a nurse jie jie who goes by a nice name of Wen Xin told mum that a few bbs who go by the name jovial, jovin or something close, are all having similar birth defects.

Also my xiao yi po(4th great aunt) was asking whether was it something wrong with my name and would it be feasible to find a master to re-pick my name.

Dad was not keen on the idea as any change would be soooo characteristically un-Jovial leh. *Faintz....Imagine:

Aovial Ioival Rovial Zovial
Bovial Koival Sovial
Covial Lovial Tovial
Dovial Movial Uovial
Eovial Novial Vovial
Fovial Oovial Wovial
Govial Povial Xovial
Hovial Qovial Yovial

Dad simply cant accept other English names also as there's a reason behind naming me as who i am - Jovial.

In the beginning (god knows only how many months i was in my mummy's womb), there's this debate going on whether will I get any English name. Dad wanted me just having a chinese name but mummy was inclined on the other. In the end dad relented so potential names started popping up for mummy to choose. Names such as Alonso, Luis, Agger, Jamie, which mummy do not like....y? Cos they are all names of players from dad's favourite football club - Liverpool.
Mummy bought books on english names but simply cant decide on one for me.

Then one day dad adopted this english word to be my name, which he hope will reflect how i will be for the whole of my life.

And this is how my name - Jovial - came about.

fever has subsided...homecoming soon :)

my fever has subsided and appetite has improved. Once my mouth ulcers are gone and everthing is okie i should be going home, probably in a couple of days.

These few days, i have many people playing with me to keep me occupied, from the nurse, to other patients' visitors. My mood has been good and during my free time i do read up the sports pages of the new paper and watch la bi xiao xin on dad's laptop...really no bluffing :)

fever fever go away cos jovial want to come home play

arghhh....supposed to be discharged today from KKH after a week's stay. However this morning started having high fever and it flucturated...hope i get well soon.

Holy Shit!

Just had my first poo a while ago. Mummy was pleasantly surprised and didnt know what to do cos i have not eaten anything since the ops and henceforth didnt expect such. Luckily nurse chai mei jie jie came over and told mum that its a good thing.

Now the next thing is for me to start back oral feed so i can go home soonest.

Wish me luck!
