Our Precious One

Hong Kong Holiday

2009-12-13T12:31:00.005+08:00

Winter in Hong Kong. So much fun but too much of walking, my feet still hurts, I badly need a good foot massage. See my facebook page for more pic uploads.

Barney

2009-12-03T12:16:00.000+08:00

Barney - still Joel's fave. Its so easy to please him :)

Christmas Lights

2009-11-29T12:21:00.000+08:00

Orchard Christmas Lights is UP! I thought it was so crowded, having to tussle with people for photo taking. But Hong Kong is worse!!

What's that Thing??

2009-11-04T22:53:00.002+08:00

Totally black!! Its a bamboo charcoal bread, what ideas this bakery came up with.. tasted just like normal white bread.

Mini F1 Race

2009-09-28T18:22:00.003+08:00

Its so fun and very expensive, $5 for 3 mins :( And Joel doesnt know how to drive himself!! He drove for 2 rounds and got stucked! Ai ya!!

Blessed 4th Birthday

2009-09-21T18:18:00.000+08:00

Its the smallest cake, only 300g. But Joel is so happy, its a Barney cake! We kept the cake blowing & singing just to the 3 kids and us.

Joel Turning 4

2009-09-13T10:56:00.017+08:00

Inspite of my dad's recent passed on, we are going ahead with a family celebration on 21Sept. My dad has always been with us celebrating Joel's bdays for 3 yrs consecutively, we are feeling so heartbroken knowing he wont be with us this year. Sometimes I wonder why did God take away our beloved one so suddenly in a flash of 3 days. Was this his plan? Or was it the devil? If its the devil, surely God has the final say/ victory. All of us are still feeling the surreal lost, the family meals on wkends is never the same again. I missed my dad's cooking. I am happy that my dearest daddy is in a better place now, free from all the sufferings. RIP - We love you dearly.

Joel's 3rd Bday

Joel's 1st Bday Joel's Full Month

SO SKINNY!!!

2009-08-15T10:12:00.002+08:00

My precious is so skinny, even his buns on his face is now slowly gone. Hai, how to plump him fatter? I think he's over active, the junk food he chomp down cannot make him fat, he burned them off in a swift! I miss the fat cheeks!

ION Orchard

2009-08-15T10:08:00.002+08:00

Nice mall, finally all the malls are linked via underground, we no longer have to cross the busy road at Paterson Road, bravo! Joel found some friends at the mall and started playing with them. Def a very lonely boy. But what to do, he's just going to be the one and only one.

Huge Resistance

2009-08-15T10:05:00.002+08:00

I refused to put on a diaper for him. He is simply too stubborn to be toilet trained, well in the big biz dept. He went on and put on the diaper himself while watching Barney on daddy's laptop. He did it!! Arghhhhhh!!

Claypot Dishes @ The Playground

2009-08-15T10:00:00.002+08:00

Food is bad, but the whole rstnt is full?? Def not worth the money, do not go !!!

Simulator Ride

2009-07-14T19:18:00.004+08:00

These machines were installed at Suntec, the hard jerking made me nauseous, I'm the only one screaming. The J&Js is cool.

Bike

2009-07-14T19:15:00.001+08:00

We have finally got Joel his own big bike. He cycle in the mall immediately but were later stopped by the security, oops. He is very talented in cycling, doesnt need any coaching at all.

Father's Day

2009-07-14T18:48:00.002+08:00

Yes, Daddy's day is so over, but I only have some little time now to upload the outdated pics.

Staying Afloat

2009-07-14T18:47:00.000+08:00

Not swimming but trying to stay afloat with the super duper busy work... Hoping to get some breather soon...... **Pray hard**

Kiddy Rides

2009-06-14T08:41:00.002+08:00

We have never put money in those kiddy rides. Last night, he experienced not once but twice the chance to sit, cos his gugu is around to shower him with lots of love & Money, hahaah. His expression is so funny, esp when he realised these things moved!! We had to tell him, only gugu is around then you have these rides moving...

Zhou's Kitchen @ Sq 2

2009-06-14T08:36:00.003+08:00

Excellent food, superb service... very nice!!

Class Photos

2009-06-09T00:16:00.002+08:00

Chanced upon this class photo while browsing the school's website. Its the one and only one pic with Jo in it.

Sun Down Marathon

2009-05-31T23:02:00.002+08:00

My hubby is so fit!! He completed 42Km in about 5 hrs. Such a feat at age 42! Way to go!!

Barista @ Work

2009-05-31T22:58:00.002+08:00

I have a coffee addicted husband who MUST have coffee every night. Joel has learned the steps of coffee making by watching. We let him try, he remembers the steps... when to turn on the foam machine, when to stir.... Good job!!

Nice Pasta

2009-05-24T09:19:00.005+08:00

Delicious, inexpensive, big portion, def worth the $$... try it at Sembawang Hills Hawker Centre. After your meal, order some juices from the 1st row, right at the end fruit stall!!! Nice too!!

Finally... to the Zoo

2009-05-24T08:53:00.001+08:00

This is the first time we brought Joel to the Day Zoo. Its sooo overdue!!! We love the Zoo, and will be back real soon!

Cleaning his wound

2009-05-21T20:51:00.000+08:00

He stepped on a broken toy & hurt his feet. He's trying to clean himself.... dont dare to tell me..

Lucky Day

2009-05-17T09:49:00.005+08:00

We were coaxed into buying some Nestle prods, but can only buy chocs & energy bar, we bought anyway. We had 2 chances to participate in the Duck Shooting game. 1st round, we won Maggi mee. 2nd round, I shot 25ducks, got the top prize - hamper. So happy. Nestle staff took our photo, and said they are going to put it up. Hahah, never know I am such a good shooter. According to them, I am the only one that day to get the top prize. Wheet wheet. I think the staff were so happy, started giving us bread, coffee etc.... Hahahaha.

Birthday @ The Line

2009-05-11T21:38:00.000+08:00

Jackson said I ate too little, well.... I think you must keep eating the delicacies such as oysters, sashimi, shrimps to get your money worth. Other food is not worth to mention. Since my birthday always coincide with mother's day, only 1 cake will do.

Boosting the economy!!

2009-05-03T17:43:00.008+08:00

My shopping spree with my best fren is always filled with surprises. An innocent trip of accompanying her to Chanel counter for her skincare products ends up both of us being 'sunked' in there for over 3 hours. I have never seen such a hardworking promoter, she gave us a full make over, intro us to colors, how to take care of our skin, chatted with us. Amazingly, she did not coaxed us into buying anything! She's amazing, superb!! Totally a valued worker for Chanel. Of course, we walked out with more than just skincare.

Japanese Lunch

2009-04-25T13:05:00.003+08:00

Teriyaki Chicken, Jap stewed vege, and my not very successful chawanmushi. I also had Jap rice with seasoning.... hate to cook in this hot hot weather!!!

Hot Summer

2009-04-19T22:26:00.003+08:00

I hate the hot weather, hotter than hot. Joel's enjoyed tremendously in the water. Then there were bruises all over his legs, knees, hands....

Island Creamery

2009-04-19T22:23:00.001+08:00

Went out on a wkday night, its rare these days. Joel's super happy, cried and refuse to go home. Nice ice cream mainly local flavours, such as, pulut hitam, teh terik, tiger beer too!

滋补养颜靓汤

2009-04-01T22:04:00.002+08:00

My sister in law owns a medical hall, superb!! I always get my supplies from her, 保证新鲜，价廉物美。 My soup ingredients is all from her, except the chicken lah. I put rose petals, that's suppose to keep me looking younger! Hahaha. 抗老，养颜，我要美!!

愚人节晚餐

2009-04-01T21:56:00.002+08:00

经济萧条，自己煮晚餐最省钱。今晚吃什么呢？炸猪排。卖相不佳，用苏打饼炸，味道却非常好。再淋上酸甜酱。。。开饭咯!

Negotiation Time

2009-03-31T22:40:00.001+08:00

He is a boy of a few words, but he surely knows how to negotiate. After severals rounds of asking him to take his nap, I give up. I gave him his fave Barney VCD, and told him to nap after the VCD. He simply replied a "YA". 20 mins into the VCD, he dozed off. Muaahahah

Mother's Love Porridge

2009-03-31T22:34:00.002+08:00

Joel, as with the usual kids, falls sick easily after he goes to school. So I cooked porridge for him last weekend. I have not cooked porridge ever since he ventured into rice, fried stuff - the junk food. The porridge as always is full of good ingredients. Dried scallops, sweet corn, carrot, wolfberries, spinanch and a big piece of fish. He finished 3/4 of the pot, me only a small tiny bowl :)

New Recipe -Stew Chicken with Coke

2009-03-25T22:38:00.002+08:00

I bought a recipe book, and decided to venture Coke into my dinner menu. Dad & Joel loves it. I think the Coke adds sweetness to the stew chicken, very nice. Joel was licking the gravy of his fingers. And its so simple to prepare.
Ingredients: 8 chicken wings, Coke, 4 slices of ginger, garlic.
Fry ginger and garlic till fragrant, put the chicken in and fry for a few minutes. Add about 400ml of coke, then add oyster sauce, light sauce, dark sauce. Taste, add more sauce if you prefer heavier taste. Then simmer for at least 45mins. Then viola!! you have it , Coca Cola chicken!

There is also a Sprite honey chicken, which I will try next time.

Ready to Prance

2009-03-25T22:37:00.001+08:00

So active even at bedtime, he's ready anytime!!

I do, he also do

2009-03-25T22:33:00.001+08:00

I mopped the floor after our dinner. The next moment, he was also mopping the floor. Very pro, mopped the dining room, kitchen even to the study room.

Funny Faces

2009-03-16T22:29:00.002+08:00

These pics were just taken about an hour ago. He suddenly has a love for bibs.. must be the scolding I gave him yesterday, bad habit, rubs his dirty mouth on his tee shirt, eeks! He just cant wear his white tops now!

Me - Hairstylist Wannabe

2009-03-16T22:22:00.004+08:00

Very auntish - I took up a haircutting course at the CC near my home. I am supposed to be able to cut hair from the 12th lesson, that's still a long way to go, I just completed my 2nd lesson only. For the whole of my Basic One lesson, she is my customer. Joel called her auntie... I have gave her a name -- Winnie. Winnie is my 1st customer, and I have to treat her with lots of TLCs. Her long flowy hair will be just about 2 inches by the end of my basic lesson. I will be learning man's cut from the 5th lesson, and that's what I been looking foward to! Daddy! Joel! BEWARE!

Credit Crunch Lunch

2009-03-16T22:18:00.002+08:00

We went to Hard Rock to try out the $10nett lunch. Every course is fine... except the main course portion is pathetically small. Its for small eater, but for $10nett, no complains esp you have a cup of hagaan daz ice cream!

Ben & Jerry's @ Dempsey

2009-03-16T22:14:00.003+08:00

Very nice place, nice decor, laid back atmosphere. We love it!

Still so in love with him

2009-03-16T22:12:00.001+08:00

Such a big baby, he still loves Barney alot. He looks at Barney's pictures etc, and called out "MOMMY". His mom is a purple dino. DUH.

Updates

2009-03-16T22:09:00.004+08:00

I just realised I have not posted much things for a long time... my memory must be failing. Have not loaded the pics at all ! !

After that big emo outbreak, Joe's been quite good, he waved bye byes to us on the school bus, that's a huge comfort to us!

But I am so afraid the one week school term break means the crying will start again next Monday, pray hard he will not!!

How worse can it get?

2009-02-20T11:04:00.003+08:00

Joel woke up by himself at 7am this morning and got cranky immediately. The next one hour is a terrible battling time, with him kicking up a BIG fuss, and we trying our best to prep him to school by 7:45am.

We got into the lift ontime for school bus, but Joel decided to throw up in the lift, we had to go back home, and have to clean him (and ourselves) up again.

Its the first time we had to drive him to school. He cried again once we reached CGM, I have never seen anything like that before. I thought this cannot get any worse, but Joel has surprised us time & again, that he can bring his tempermental level up to a higher knot.

This morning - 20 Feb Friday, is possibly the worse emotional outbreak. I had to run away from the school, away from Joel's vision, he's out of control.

8:45am, we were all late for work, CGM called, Joel's still crying in the background. Teacher wants to know exactly what happened to him, they cannot soothe him. I asked them what can we do, I think she doesnt know too. They are probably like us, totally exasperated!

大叔!!

2009-02-11T18:17:00.001+08:00

天啊!! 真象个坐在大树下乘凉的大叔!! 三岁订八十，恐怕是真的了。嘻嘻。。

Flu

2009-02-11T18:13:00.002+08:00

Both of us were down with flu, passing the virus to each other. He was so tired, slept w/in 10 mins, and wrapped himself up in the blanket, poor boy.. sniff sniff.

Lion Dance

2009-02-11T18:09:00.001+08:00

He got a big nightmare after watching about 30 mins of loud lion dance at a very close distance.

School Bag

2009-02-02T23:45:00.003+08:00

Was wondering where is Joel's school bag, it finally appeared. Guess the honeymoon period is over, its study time! Joel treats his bag like so precious, and look so proud when he carry it.

CNY 2009

2009-01-28T10:16:00.002+08:00

Its a very boring CNY for us. There is not much places for us to visit. The only thing we had to do is to stop Joel from feasting too much on the titbits! My boy, so handsome! Haha.

First Artwork @ Nursery

2009-01-22T21:19:00.002+08:00

For the 1st time, w/out Daddy's help, perhaps a little of teacher's help, Joel did his first artwork -a CNY Card. Form teacher feedback he did a really good job. So proud of him.

Having a playmate

2009-01-13T20:13:00.001+08:00

My cousin's family is in town for a short getaway. Natasha & Joel met again, he's so happy to see her. He doesnt like brushing his teeth, but with Natasha around, he's so motivated, so cute.

School Time

2009-01-05T08:56:00.002+08:00

5 Jan 2009 - Joel has gone to school officially on N1 w/out us. He seems to fit well, no crying, only a very curious face. Other kids are crying buckets, esp the boys, haha, wonder why cos I saw the girls are doing quite well.

Joel with Disney - on TV!!!

2008-12-25T08:17:00.000+08:00

Xmas Gifts

2008-12-25T00:27:00.004+08:00

Joel opened the gifts with Wows, Wahs. His fave #1 gift is a Barney Bolster from Jac, #2 fave is a musical penguin from Fern, #3 Bob the Builder waterbottle from Dawn. He brings Barney out, and sleeps with all 3 of his faves. Check out my facebook album for more pictures uploaded.

Happy Kids!!

2008-12-14T10:22:00.002+08:00

Big & small kids, age from 1 to 10, all gathered at the BBQs. Joel had a great time, of cos followed by great nightmares too. I love the girls, so nice to have daughters!

Bolt

2008-12-09T21:46:00.002+08:00

We brought Joel to the movies for the first time. He was ok for the first half of the movie, laughing, eating his pop corn and drink. Second half - he slept till the end! Its good for us, we enjoyed throughout the whole show. Great cartoon except I think the Hamster in the ball steal the show! Cute!

Xmas Dinner

2008-12-08T09:30:00.005+08:00

Fern our eco-friendly gal, bought a thermas cup for Angel. Coincidentally, I bought her a set of cutlerys and a organic body lotion. See we all know her so well! I got a Lipstick! Elaine knows me too, I'm a cosmetic person, hehehe.

Injury

2008-12-08T09:26:00.001+08:00

Got a shock when we saw his mouth is covered with blood. He used his daddy's shaver, tried to shave himself!

Spicy Eater

2008-11-30T09:19:00.001+08:00

He loves curry puff. Also the preserved ginger in Jap restaurants. Looks like, we have another spicy eater in the house.

Nice Xmas Tree

2008-11-30T09:16:00.000+08:00

I like this xmas tree! Pretty in pink!

Thai Express

2008-11-23T21:26:00.000+08:00

Its our 1st visit. Good service, food wise not too bad, will def visit again. I had to order 2 main course, Joel can eat a sweet & sour fish with rice by himself!

Underweight?

2008-11-14T23:25:00.002+08:00

I think he's underweight... looks like only 12kg.

Always want to go out

2008-11-09T17:51:00.000+08:00

In his PJs, was a boring weekday night. Joel lead me to the carpark, found the car, and urged me to bring him out. Of cos not! He cried so loud on the way back, luckily, our nice auntie nbor packed Mac for dinner, and gave him fries! That stopped his tears immediately.

Snugly Fit Sleepwear

2008-11-09T17:22:00.000+08:00

Bought this sleepwear from Old Navy website (there is a on-going buying craze). Snugly fit, looks so skinny but its v comfy. Noticed his black face, cos I was holding a cane. Cannot sit / stand still for a photo!

Picky Eater

2008-11-09T15:35:00.000+08:00

Does not want to eat home cooked food. But once he's out, he can clean up a decent portion of kids meal. This meal + apple juice we had at Spageddies is big. My salmon is not bad too. Can revisit.

Bad Habit

2008-11-09T15:23:00.001+08:00

The little monkey needs to have things on his hands whenever we are out. That obstructs any chance of getting a good picture. It's being blocked by his bolster, pillow and some toys Arghhhh :x

Globegrotters

2008-10-25T08:40:00.004+08:00

Their food were not great at all, we are smarter this time, we just went there to drink coffee. And let Joel played in the room, and we just relax. The last time we went was for Joel's 2nd Bday, Globe needs to spruce up their playroom, kind of stinks!

Hearing Test: Results - NORMAL!

2008-10-25T08:30:00.003+08:00

We were all jitters about the hearing test, but thank god, everything went well. There was no need to put Joel on sedation, he was rather well behaved. The doctor was about to order the sedation, cos he doesnt want to be tested on his left ear. Then I was called in, and Joel let the doc test on him. Yea! Everything went well, and we are out to celebrate. Went to our fave Santouka restaurant. Love the ramen! Oops sorry Marutama, you are at #2 place now.

Daddy's spicy Ramen

My order - Ramen with pork cheeks, yummy!

四大美女

2008-10-20T23:08:00.000+08:00

Waruku has 50% off total on Monday night, that's why we are there. Btw,
小芬，生日快乐，快把自己嫁了吧!!

His Prized Gain

2008-09-29T23:39:00.002+08:00

His fave place at the supermarket is where the drinks are! We walked into a Korea Supermart, and he stood at the drinks fridge, refused to go. So I asked him to pick a drink, I know he will surely pick this bottle cos its so cartoon, but we all dont know what kind of drink is that, all in Korean. At the cashier, he picked a tube of sweets which was promptly asked to be put back!

Mimolette

2008-09-29T23:31:00.002+08:00

Fine dining's not for me :P Perhaps its not meant for lunch where you have to go back and finish up your work!

I meant what I said

2008-09-29T23:17:00.003+08:00

28 Sept Sunday - 12noon, we decided to have lunch at our fave chicken rice stall. Joel refused to eat. I told him fine there will be no food till 6pm. By the time we had dinner at Dian Xiaoer (I purposely picked Chinese food over his fave Jap or Italian), he was so hungry, he chose to chomp down all the rice by himself. He had 2 bowls of rice! There after, he dragged us into Burger King and ate onion rings! Muahahahah!

Little Drummer

2008-09-23T22:58:00.001+08:00

He's been eyeing to open his present. When met with difficulty to unwrap it, he took a little key as a tool to help him. Smart!

F1 Fever

2008-09-21T23:16:00.000+08:00

I love this shoe, so sporty, so red, and that Ferrari logo...wow steady! Must buy!

Celebration in School

2008-09-21T14:14:00.000+08:00

Hmm the cake looks like a girl.. Joel enjoyed every bit with 10 kids singing bday song for him.

3rd Bday Celebration

2008-09-20T22:10:00.000+08:00

It was really tiring fixing the food, Joel was so happy, he loves the part when we sang him the birthday song. He clapped along.

Duck Tour

2008-09-20T21:06:00.000+08:00

Joel enjoyed the duck tour alot! There was a little girl seated behind us, Joel and her were playing and laughing.

092108 Sunday

2008-09-14T18:42:00.003+08:00

Joel will be 3 in a week's time. Small celebration this year, cos daddy is only back 2 days before, and I'm tired to think of anything to plan for. There will be 2 mini parties. One at my mom's place on Sat 20 Sept, and another on Sunday 21st, at the school. Teacher Janice said they have not had cakes for a long time. Now its time to hunt for the 2nd cake!

Inflation has also made cakes pricier these days. Just a 2kg cake cost me 97. And now, we have another cake to buy, wow.... but its fun to buy, might be getting a Barney cake... Heehee.

Small party aside, we have a whole series of outings lined out, we are going for the duck tour! And lots and lots of play, and food!

Brownies

2008-09-14T18:40:00.001+08:00

Nice Brownies, taste good too!

We met up again

2008-09-14T18:33:00.003+08:00

What a pity! My new C902 didn't live up to its expectation. Somehow, I felt my old K800 was better. Maybe the 2 boys were seated at the wrong angle, the photos didnt turn out satisfactory. Very cute, but the restaurant has alot to clear after we left. There were lots of rice and tissues on the floor. SORRY!! p/s: Warner wore Joel's 1 yr old jumper, so cute! Reminds me of tiny Joel then.

The Car is Out

2008-09-14T18:02:00.005+08:00

Joel got suspicious of the guest room, and followed me. I let him, the car has been hiding long enough. His eyes brightened up, and immediately jumped into the car. But then, there is no smashed doors or banged into furniture thing. He dont know how to drive it properly! Muahahaha. He panicked once the car moved, and attempts to carry it. So funny!

Car in Hiding

2008-09-11T18:59:00.002+08:00

I was afraid that I cannot handle Joel in that car. So its still in hiding mode... I will let it go only when papa is back, in time for his birthday next weekend.

Have personally tried on the car, gosh, it certainly run fast!!

3rd Birthday Gift

2008-09-07T22:14:00.000+08:00

Joel is surely going to get very excited over his bday gift. Its a self drive car with horn, signal lights, pedal forward function, even a gear shift. I wonder if he knows how to drive it properly. This car has been hidden in the guest room for 2 days. Need to charge alot before use. I wonder if I should show him today or should I wait for another 2 weeks... hehehe. We ordered a Formula One Race Car but the stock had ran out, so I just take the beetle car instead. A whopping 16kg for me to carry it myself, this is Mother's Love!

Happy Birthday!

2008-09-07T14:51:00.003+08:00

Its Warner's 1st birthday! Such a cutie boy. I was totally shag out by Joel's tantrum, and the carrying, no mood to take any photo of myself.

Nice number! Brought Joel to the much awaited KK appt. Not much results to blog, I was told to observe, wait, wait , wait .... the wait at the KK and various test and therapies stretched to next year. I guess that's the thing about healthcare in this whole world - WAIT. Very happy that Joel was such a good boy, he made my day. We had a nice time together, I hope he's such a good boy all the time, I could bring him out to further places.

Lunch @ MOF Bugis Junction

Salmon Set comes with dessert & coffee

Joel willingly sat in the stroller, weather was cold,

I bought a towel for him, he napped shortly after, such a sweet boy.

Reunion

We have finally caught up. Fern still looking the same - tall (very tall) and still SLIM!

Injury

2008-08-17T23:13:00.003+08:00

He did not cry at all, we did not know he hurt his little toe. I screamed out loud when I was about to cut his toe nail, the little toe was bleeding.

We decided to bring him to see a doc, the toe was swollen and bruised. Fortunately we brought him to see a doc. Joel had to have antiseptic cream, dressings and antibiotics!

This is the 2nd injury on the same toe. First time, he got bruised and part of his toe nail came off.

To prevent further injury, he has to wear bedroom slippers at home. And I bought plasters for him, which he took it out. :s

Threesome Dinner

Joel dont like to pee in the potty, nor in the toilet bowl.... He likes to spray his pee everywhere in the toilet!!!!!!

Last night, he pee just outside the toilet, and he kept looking and see how far he can aim and shoot.

I dont know to laugh or cry.... this morning he pee at the toilet brush. Muahahahaahaha.

New Hairstyle

2008-08-02T21:52:00.003+08:00

Took me the hairstylist 4 to 5 times to cut his hair. He moves, runs, waves his hands, and now his new look. Looking very nerdy with that super short fringe.

Lonely Mommies Date

We were so bored, so we metup for lunch with our boys at Waraku. What a hot day, we were tired out by our boys super energetic power! Kris raised a very good question: "Can you managed these 2 boys alone?"...... NIGHTMARE!!!

MOF - Ministry of Food

2008-07-21T21:12:00.003+08:00

I love MOF, I love their dessert (not their maincourse, hehe), they opened a dessert only outlet @ Lot 1. I love to go Lot 1 now. I took half day today to run some errands, at the same time, met up with Thomas & my sis for lunch @ Sakae. Thomas suggested desert, I said let's move over to MOF. We love it!! And I love the company, so fun, cant stop laughing.

Sunday Playgroup

2008-07-21T18:28:00.002+08:00

I was shocked to see 10 kids in the class. That's too many! And some are so small, only a few familar faces. I dont mind new comers, but 10 kids.... Teacher Janice had a headache, one of the boys, screamed non stop, he was screaming very loudly at high pitch, disrupting everyone in the class. I can see the adults frowned, including me.

I dont like it, how can one teacher handle so many kids. And that boy's father is so soft. I would have brought Joel out to soothe him.

Sigh, I will bring up my concern next week. Had I know the class is going to be so huge, I would not pay for another term.

Joel is not the worst case in class, he runs around but he doesnt scream. That boy gave me a headache too. With 10 kids, I figured there's going to be a fight in that very small playground, so I brought Joel home.... :S :S

Durian Party

2008-07-20T22:06:00.003+08:00

The Durian Lovers had a great time eating durian today. I dont know what so nice about that thorny fruit, so I became the photographer. Of course, I am ok for Joel to try the fruit. Haha he doesn't like it at all.

My sis, her kids enjoying..

Joel being fed..Joel - Yucky Face

Pic Taken Today

2008-07-19T23:04:00.003+08:00

I bought about 10pcs of clothes from Bangkok, the 3Yr old bottoms is too big for Jo. Looks like only elastic pants is in for now. At 13Kg, finally 1kg increase, he still cant fit a 3yr old pants, shorts, even surf shorts. This pj I bought seems too big also, but its elastic, at least wont drop :s

Ice Cream Treat

2008-07-19T22:51:00.003+08:00

The set meal @ White Dog cafe is pathetically small serving. Usually a set meal can fill both of us full, but not at White Dog cafe. So I have to order extras, a slice of mango cake & ice cream. So the $10.80++ cheap set lunch price is not value for $. So say bye to White Dog, we are not going back again!

Vanilla Pod ~ Disappointing

2008-07-19T22:42:00.004+08:00

Definitely the food quality is not in tandem with the price. I only like the mushroom soup. Do not be deceived by the beautiful pics, taste irks! Should not patronise again!

Bangkok Trip

2008-07-19T22:36:00.003+08:00

Went for a whirlwind short getaway to Bangkok, I only took one photo.... ai yo, but my sister K hasn't download the pic yet... sob sob.

It was a fun holiday, though rushing, I enjoyed the togetherness of everyone on this trip. Kris made me laughed the most, this little girl is so funny.

Till then, I shall be waiting for my only pic taken at BKK......
