Singapore Flyer

Price of working in NDP 08? A free trip for 6 adults to the Singapore Flyer. I guess that sums up the experience in NDP 08, dull, unexciting and ultimately disappointing at the working level. But then again, there's always another perspective to a half empty glass of water. At least it works out to be $180 and more importantly, a priceless moment for the family to get together.




One of the things I had always appreciated in life are my parents and I always try my best to make up to them in whatever means possible. Sometimes, I wish that I could have more time in the evening to talk to them more and understand them better. But then again, work has always taken a toil on me. So, the next best solution is to create opportunities for family bonding over the weekends.

Also, I know Charlene has a special place in mom's heart and nothing is more heartening to have the entire family together for a weekend together.

Well, you can say the same for me as well. I had always adored Charlene, so much so, that I think of her as my god-daughter. Buying her pretty and pinkish stuff had since been my favourite past time as well.

I guess that can be said the same for my brother, who enjoys making trips down to my place on weekdays to play with En Xi. Here, he is trying to strike a conversation with her.

Don't you just love the look on En Xi's face? One moment she's crying, the next moment she's laughing and now, a coy look. Adorable aren't she? Bonding with her had never been so fun...

Ah, such memories, NDP 06 seems like yesterday. I still could recall the ultra late nights we put in and the rewarding experience. I still could recall the words from the one of NDP videos," Places change, people come and go, but out hearts will always remain". Such irony, that the National Stadium is going to make way for the new national stadium by 2010.

By the way, I had never been a true fan of F1, but after watching F1 Singapore, it proved to be a spectacle, at least on TV, in my own opinion.

My favorite person is....

Up up and away...

I always thought that I was En Xi's favorite person because:
1. She can only be calmed down by me whenever she is cranky (which Edwin dismissed as because I'm the provider of her greatest need ie MILK.)
2. She always reserves her biggest smile of the day for me when I'm back from work.
3. She gets amused by whatever I do or say to her.

Tat's why, I always thought that first words will be "Ma Ma" or "Mum mum" (thou it may be mean "food"). But Little Ms Chatty first few words was actually "BA BA BA"!! You can imagine how proud Edwin was, literally showing off to me whenver she does tat. Thou I'm still not convinced cos it could just be her babbling and the vowel of "BA" just seems more achievable! Never mind..1 point goes to him then. I still have 2 points leading with the above-mentioned reasons..haha.

Recently, we also started to convert the space at the living room into En Xi's new playground. She seems to enjoy herself very much with the new-found playground. Her daily entertainment is to challenge herself to reach for the items concealed behind the pilllows such as the cable box, the hi-fi, and whatever that her fingers can land. En Xi is also able to stand up steadily now. From her initial attempts to prop herself up with her wobbly legs, she is able to support herself up steadily within a few days. When no-one is watching, this showy little girl will even shout for our attention when she manages to stand up successfully.

I can reach for the wire!! Need to stretch longer...
Gotcha! Let's play some Wiiiiiiiiiiii!

Hee hee...i got busted!

This little vainpot also know how to pose into the camera! Whenever she sees the beam from the cam, she will actually pause whatever she's doing and even smile into the camera sometimes!

Let me show u my megawatt GUM-smile.
