The Accidental Godmother

I am an accidental godmother. The BF (she’s been my best friend since we were 15, not to be confused with my BFF of the Paris / Nicole fashion who is also otherwise known as The Frou) has a funny boy who is one year old. Krusty (my ex-colleague who has been a pillar of support and the other half of my SUPER BRAIN) has two tykes – one of whom looks like a certain Channel 8 actress named Ms Xie.

I am a terrible godmother. Krusty has two girls. The older one is somewhat chubby and grumpy while the younger one is prettier and more sociable (and looks like Ms Xie). I told Krusty that the Grumpy needs to study really hard and Ms Xie just needs to learn ballet (which I will happily pay for!) and life will be good for the both of them. Krusty told me to “go and die”. Haha! Krusty, I owe my goddaughter a birthday present and a piñata!

The BF’s son celebrated his first birthday on Sunday at a Chinese restaurant with family and Aunties (The BF’s friends). The ex-boyfriend (who is friends with the The BF’s husband) was there with his shaggy-haired girlfriend. What was supposed to be a wholesome birthday party for a child turned into a bitchfest courtesy of the Aunties.
Snippets of the conversation:
“Why her hair like that ah?”
“Assymetrical bob still in meh?”
“Wah! Her boobs are very big! But she has no personality!”
“She looks like a monkey. Wait! He also looks like a monkey!”

I sat back and smiled indulgently at my friends who love me. And marvelling at the fact at how loud Aunties can be.

Baby DN, I hope you liked Twinkle Twinkle Little Star – The 12” remix version with groovy dance steps! I was very tired doing that on repeat just to make you gurgle with laughter. I also hope you liked my solo rendition of 2 Become 1 by The Spice Girls. Mummy doesn’t really like that song because she thinks it illustrates inappropriate moral behaviour. The Frou and I love it!
