Sibling Love and Rivalry

Lately, we talked about En Jun's increasing ability to converse and express himself.  With that, it also meant that the both of you are playing together much often.  Its always interesting to see both of you play with En Xi dishing out instructions like a "busy body" and En Jun obliging most of the time.  There are times when both of you can't stand each other and starts pushing around, but truth is that you care about one another very much.  Always looking out for another and asking for that one more goodie to share.

Today is another happy day, we watched a kid's show "PLAYtime! Hello Yasmin" at the Esplanade, followed by a visit to an experiential showcase of Total Defence (30 years) at the National Museum of Singapore (NMS).

Let's face it, Navy has the best looking uniform

I apologise for my left hand salute

Navy is good, let's do it again!

Pressies that I bought from my trip to Brisbane, Australia

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.
