Very tired but we had a great time, albeit a little 'tan' and 'sun-burnt'. Had been there few years ago with my hubby via guided tour. Decided to revisit again as believed the kids would like the theme parks @ Movie World etc. However, we had opted for free n easy arrangement this time. Amazing that we are able to commute from one place to another using only public buses, no taxis at all. Apart from the extreme hot weather and occasional showers, this trip was enjoyable!<br /><OBJECT class=BLOG_video_class id=BLOG_video-9a8ad1b594f700ef height=266 width=320 contentId="9a8ad1b594f700ef"></OBJECT>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4857511329458995767.post-64237837264133118122008-11-24T12:12:00.005+08:002008-11-24T13:06:21.965+08:00小弟 'Big Day'<div><embed src="http://widget-bb.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="l" wmode="transparent" flashvars="cy=bb&il=1&channel=1513209474817531323&site=widget-bb.slide.com" style="width:400px;height:320px" name="flashticker" align="middle"></embed><div style="width:400px;text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1513209474817531323&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-bb.slide.com/p1/1513209474817531323/bb_t021_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1513209474817531323&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-bb.slide.com/p2/1513209474817531323/bb_t021_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1513209474817531323&map=F" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-bb.slide.com/p4/1513209474817531323/bb_t021_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide42.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></div></div><br />We are all eagerly looking forward to this day, particularly my parents.

No elaborate celebration, just a simple affair with my family - birthday kisses & wishings, hand-made cards from my lovely kids (promised to publish their cards here as they are ardent supporters of my blog), a lunch treat by my hubby at Swissotel Merchant Court Hotel and so on.....Have a wonderful day!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4857511329458995767.post-85876035666799493022008-08-25T10:17:00.003+08:002008-08-25T11:12:54.818+08:00'BIGGG' shoe<div><embed src="http://widget-7c.slide.com/widgets/themepic.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="l" wmode="transparent" flashvars="cy=bb&il=1&channel=1513209474815624316&site=widget-7c.slide.com" style="width:300px;height:400px" name="flashticker" align="middle"></embed><div style="width:300px;text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1513209474815624316&map=A" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-7c.slide.com/z1/1513209474815624316/bb_t016_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1513209474815624316&map=B" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-7c.slide.com/z2/1513209474815624316/bb_t016_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide4.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=1513209474815624316&map=G" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-7c.slide.com/z4/1513209474815624316/bb_t016_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide42.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></div></div><br />Crocs shoes have been popular in Singapore for many years but it just doesn't really tickled my fancy - weird design and make one looks clumsy when put on.

We even paid $500 membership fee to join a clan so as to qualify for the phase 2B registration for one of its affiliated 'elite' schools. Demand far outsripped supply, we were not even eligible for the balloting due to the overwhelming applications under that phase (also because we do not stay within the 1km radius of our choice school). Very disappointed then.<br /><br />Ultimately, we got her into a neighbourhood school near our place. To our relief, she had performed very well in her first year for her cohort. Hope she will continue to excel in her studies....We are proud of her!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4857511329458995767.post-69050760060340662402008-07-29T13:15:00.001+08:002008-07-29T13:16:59.122+08:00INCREDIBLE 'CHAIR'<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.collegehumor.com/moogaloop/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=1824626&fullscreen=1" width="480" height="360" ><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="AllowScriptAccess" value="true" /><param name="movie" quality="best" value="http://www.collegehumor.com/moogaloop/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=1824626&fullscreen=1" /></object><div style="padding:5px 0; text-align:center; width:480px;">See more <a href="http://www.collegehumor.com/videos">funny videos</a> and <a href="http://www.collegehumor.com/pictures">funny pictures</a> at <a href="http://www.collegehumor.com/">CollegeHumor</a>.</div><br />Don't try this otherwise........Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4857511329458995767.post-17170282410595398382008-07-21T10:07:00.005+08:002008-07-28T11:24:00.093+08:00FUTURE 'BUDDING' PIANIST<p style="visibility:visible;"><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://widget-fc.slide.com/widgets/themepic.swf" height="400" width="300" style="width:300px;height:400px"><param name="movie" value="http://widget-fc.slide.com/widgets/themepic.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="scale" value="noscale" /><param name="salign" value="l" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent"/> <param name="flashvars" value="cy=ms&il=1&channel=2522015791331877628&site=widget-fc.slide.com"/></object><p style="white-space:nowrap"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=2522015791331877628&map=A" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-fc.slide.com/z1/2522015791331877628/ms_t016_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=2522015791331877628&map=B" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-fc.slide.com/z2/2522015791331877628/ms_t016_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide4.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=2522015791331877628&map=R" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-fc.slide.com/z3/2522015791331877628/ms_t016_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide16.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=2522015791331877628&map=G" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-fc.slide.com/z4/2522015791331877628/ms_t016_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide42.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></p></p><br />Our girl started learning piano when she was 6 years old. It has benefited her in many ways in terms of mental, physical and emotional development, such as it helps to boost her self-confidence, 'brain-power' etc. Most important of all, she is now enjoying piano playing and aspired to be a pianist.<br /><br />Hence, we decided to enrol our 4 years old boy earlier for the piano course (we are just typical 'KIASU' parents). Yamaha Junior Course is so popular that it has only 50 limited vacancies but yet over 100 applications received. And we are lucky enough to secure a place for our boy. He has already attended 3 lessons and having great fun with music, albeit a little bit nervous during his 1st lesson. So far so good and we are looking forward to him playing duet with our girl.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4857511329458995767.post-63816138959457961692008-07-07T14:47:00.001+08:002008-07-07T15:30:05.186+08:00S'PORE FOOD FESTIVAL 2008<p style="visibility:visible;"><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://widget-62.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" height="320" width="426" style="width:426px;height:320px"><param name="movie" value="http://widget-62.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="scale" value="noscale" /><param name="salign" value="l" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent"/> <param name="flashvars" value="cy=ms&il=1&channel=1513209474814448226&site=widget-62.slide.com"/></object><p><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=1513209474814448226&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-62.slide.com/p1/1513209474814448226/ms_t014_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=1513209474814448226&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-62.slide.com/p2/1513209474814448226/ms_t014_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=ms&at=un&id=1513209474814448226&map=F" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-62.slide.com/p4/1513209474814448226/ms_t014_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide42.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></p></p><br />Left the kids at home with my-in-laws yesterday and went shopping with my hubby at Orchard, hoping to grab some 'good' bargains before the Great Singapore Sale ends.

Suggested to have dinner at Lau Pa Sa where the opening celebrations of Singapore Food Festival 2008 are held.<br /><br />Tourists and locals flocked to Lau Pa Sa, including us. We are even mistakened as tourists and approached twice for survey conducted by staffs engaged by Singapore Tourism Board.

We were totally fascinated by the rows of colourful and beautifully restored pre-war houses which now houses hotels, offices, pubs and more while still retaining its strong historical/heritage-rich architecture and neighbourhood. </div><div><div><div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge4pn1zAxcBdCVymbdGfLIICrDh0OEgoGG5atBMH3qb2b__BtAOzoZ7yJ4ZcaXSfn74Ap_A_-g9Xwt8fROFyVCbKHMd7bQLaa-J7mcqDyNV6Rlhk1CI0Eu7rgKCueksUl5LErHcYGztXx9/s1600-h/IMG_0184.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5209804213468510018" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge4pn1zAxcBdCVymbdGfLIICrDh0OEgoGG5atBMH3qb2b__BtAOzoZ7yJ4ZcaXSfn74Ap_A_-g9Xwt8fROFyVCbKHMd7bQLaa-J7mcqDyNV6Rlhk1CI0Eu7rgKCueksUl5LErHcYGztXx9/s200/IMG_0184.jpg" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbfejFCFkpY169YZHI1-79Pruk4ApRnSVL0A7tw1OW9cMHRi5TftdOZPZS8StjxX1UmWhOGVyUZI1yXo5uIDFLxzKooctxf60NdajzGX4wkoQxqhGVWS9jkuagaQ337gA-msOdt1WQ29lh/s1600-h/IMG_0170.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5209804553595473682" style="CURSOR: hand" height="150" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbfejFCFkpY169YZHI1-79Pruk4ApRnSVL0A7tw1OW9cMHRi5TftdOZPZS8StjxX1UmWhOGVyUZI1yXo5uIDFLxzKooctxf60NdajzGX4wkoQxqhGVWS9jkuagaQ337gA-msOdt1WQ29lh/s200/IMG_0170.jpg" width="202" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgez1j5KVg3EK6ekT_f-CUhiCcjxmNsD-sk8_Oms5JuF53ao_q5_W_qX6OKuaBV0DaNJqVmY_O0pPtNoBEv85WVOPgQy4hwFjIQa9w2Y27fy_CFRLCMjuonEZzE2QuXG_750dcr7NPAOqfi/s1600-h/IMG_0189.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5209804943017700178" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgez1j5KVg3EK6ekT_f-CUhiCcjxmNsD-sk8_Oms5JuF53ao_q5_W_qX6OKuaBV0DaNJqVmY_O0pPtNoBEv85WVOPgQy4hwFjIQa9w2Y27fy_CFRLCMjuonEZzE2QuXG_750dcr7NPAOqfi/s200/IMG_0189.jpg" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdrkZKKyQ8fFhjXHM5l-m0A2EdOLmzxgzLlzS6ZxJp1buf01SQIKBdTsMvvyrxOj4PavuBVUioHnPmPuFSbOWwRL6JaNbOpiqUl-otzIm2f28cZa_vSjvaN0M8WWVVjbwk96JAEIkdbOwX/s1600-h/IMG_0178.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5209804761504272018" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdrkZKKyQ8fFhjXHM5l-m0A2EdOLmzxgzLlzS6ZxJp1buf01SQIKBdTsMvvyrxOj4PavuBVUioHnPmPuFSbOWwRL6JaNbOpiqUl-otzIm2f28cZa_vSjvaN0M8WWVVjbwk96JAEIkdbOwX/s200/IMG_0178.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">We stayed at the Royal Peacock Hotel.

We also visited the newly renovated Chinatown Food Centre and had a sumptuous but yet economical food fare there. The food that I enjoyed most is the tradditional dessert. I particularly like the pumpkin-sweet corn paste which I have never try before in other dessert shops. I would say the price is extremely cheap at only s$1.20 per bowl and yet the quality is as good as those famous dessert shops at Liang Seah Street which cost at least S$2.50 per bowl. </div><div><br /></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Indeed, an unforgetable trip and holiday @ Chinatown.

This indian chap was seen casting a net into the canal while standing on the slanted wall of the canal. The surface of the wall may be slippery, he may just lost his balance and slipped into the canal. A sudden high tide will simply wash him away even though he may be a good swimmer. A 'good catch' is certainly not worth the 'big risk'. </div><div align="justify"> </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Check this out: </div><div align="justify"><a href="http://singaporeseen.stomp.com.sg/singaporeseen/viewContent.jsp?id=21752">http://singaporeseen.stomp.com.sg/singaporeseen/viewContent.jsp?id=21752</a></div><div align="justify"> </div><div align="justify"> </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4857511329458995767.post-67774996386882845152008-05-02T17:36:00.005+08:002008-05-02T20:07:36.634+08:00MASTERPIECE - jigsaw puzzles<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhC2M0iUXzFUdjziCkh5PxOIje47xo-YAibdXleYH2H2OelioLxx6qN_4o2F_0xOMDRF9-ACIzMpitdmS0lwGIyeDwM87VyxIkamNJ9IJm8Bmc2uRCGl7rKYMxf3OuytVn2h5K8UmO4t1Ub/s1600-h/1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5195713118010313138" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhC2M0iUXzFUdjziCkh5PxOIje47xo-YAibdXleYH2H2OelioLxx6qN_4o2F_0xOMDRF9-ACIzMpitdmS0lwGIyeDwM87VyxIkamNJ9IJm8Bmc2uRCGl7rKYMxf3OuytVn2h5K8UmO4t1Ub/s200/1.jpg" border="0" /></a> 500 pcs<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0VH4-56SAuHXhkcY5MX444Y3cnmsOq6ajPlq1lNiJHtsROOT_i8kCAK91R4Qf0kzU5HluGG4QYFt_i0d4PjhCBGQaHyl7lLcDRIDVuL10YVQtZI8_P5fxpIraRDGYZWDlLsD5nEyyAn87/s1600-h/2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5195712851722340770" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0VH4-56SAuHXhkcY5MX444Y3cnmsOq6ajPlq1lNiJHtsROOT_i8kCAK91R4Qf0kzU5HluGG4QYFt_i0d4PjhCBGQaHyl7lLcDRIDVuL10YVQtZI8_P5fxpIraRDGYZWDlLsD5nEyyAn87/s200/2.jpg" border="0" /></a> 1000 pcs<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXUkrBu8qZUI9nd_ZWhqnQNQorD6vf9GU7Q3OKdNzYmIqdxiNL1bpTZEkPvwietYo_baKd0OxfL4F7UaoNeT5glF0IryUNo19pmRgxWoKDrwijYc-2YtAJe_uOFGzalb3d_TY5KTb1dNc_/s1600-h/3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5195712628384041362" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXUkrBu8qZUI9nd_ZWhqnQNQorD6vf9GU7Q3OKdNzYmIqdxiNL1bpTZEkPvwietYo_baKd0OxfL4F7UaoNeT5glF0IryUNo19pmRgxWoKDrwijYc-2YtAJe_uOFGzalb3d_TY5KTb1dNc_/s200/3.jpg" border="0" /></a> 2000 pcs<br /><br /><div align="justify">My girl started toying with jigsaw puzzles when she is about 4 years old. 20 pcs to 50 pcs to 100 pcs to 250 pcs and she gets more ambitious each time she completes one. So this is what happened subsequently: 500 pcs - 5 years old, 1000 pcs - 6 years old and the most recent one is 2000 pcs - 7 years old. A childhood game has now turned into a hobby for her. I think this is good as it helps to cultivate patience, problem solving skill...... It is also great for family bonding because we (daddy, mummy, younger brother, ah gong, ah ma) will sometimes gather together to help her. We have lots of fun doing that together and we are so proud of her at the moment of hanging up the jigsaw puzzle.
