• welcoming 2013!

    we kicked off the start of the new year with an adventure! have been wanting to expose Jerry to more outdoor activities and our mother nature so we took opportunity of the public holiday on 1 Jan and popped to pulau ubin! I originally wanted to head towards macritchie but found out that my cousin’s family is popping over to ubin so I joined them instead! first time on a bumper boat enroute to the island. he’s quite freaked out by the engine noise and crawled into my arms. when he finally got over his fear.. stepping foot on the island! a family shot! daddy can’t open his eyes in…

  • about the new year.

    the long weekend was packed with tons of activities that I did not have any time alone, unless you consider 3 hours of manicure me-time.

  • picking up the pieces?

    after staying awake for nearly 30 hours and being at the wake (for 26hrs!) and sending uncle off on this last journey to be cremated, i came home, flopped in bed and slept for a record breaking 16 hours. its quite a feat for me since i usually sleep a lot lesser and seldom make it past the 12hr mark. im still feeling a little groggy now cos i fell asleep again while i was trying to read a book. 2007 began with me in bed, with a non stop beeping handphone while i was sleeping. it’s a tad annoying trying to get sleep in but thanks to everyone who…
