I’ve been trying to reach Reid since afternoon till now and i only managed to get through to him ONCE! He’s a real busy bee preparing for NATIONAL DAY PARADE.
Hahaha, ok let’s try this.
I want to blog, but I don’t know what to write about. So i did a quick google search and found a website that generates sentences to help with a writer’s flow of creativity.
The first prompt (to interest me) says: “My ten favourite sounds”…
BOOORING. Let’s do “Ten sounds i dread hearing” instead.
1. The cooing of pigeons.
2. The fluttering of wings (be it bird wings, or moth wings, or cockroach wing… *shudder*).
3. The sound of my alarm clock ringing.
Hahaha. Only if I didn’t have anything to look forward to that day.
4. The doorbell ringing when I’m not expecting anyone.
I don’t like opening doors to strangers or people who decide popping by without first giving notice is absolutely acceptable.
5. The tone my phone gives when my battery’s dying.
6. The voices of certain people (who shall remain unnamed).
7. The sounds of things crashing and falling.
That’s all I can think of. I thought of driving and got pretty sad. Because I haven’t had driving lessons for quite some time. Due to various “complications” I do not wish to talk about. I just want to get back on track ASAP and get my license soon. Please. Thanks.
Home from a very hearty dinner. And with great company, no less. :) My relatives from Australia, who haven’t been back for two and a half years came back last week and we’ve been meeting up with them these few days.
While, as usual, a little bit of warm up was needed, the real fun begun after that. I’m really quite tickled by their antics and the stories they tell us.
Some photos!
My Aussie cuzzies. That’s Sarah on the extreme left, Jeremy on the left of my brother and Dominic on the extreme right.
11 years old Dominic – SUCH PINCHABLE CHEEKS

All the cousins. :)
It was great while it lasted… And I wonder when we’ll get to see them again…
Oh really, is that what you think?
Sometimes, it’s better to keep what you think to yourself. Not everyone appreciates it. Many times, your “deep” thoughts are pretty unnecessary.
If you wanna tell someone what to do, then first make sure you are walking the talk. Otherwise, the changes you hope to see will never come to pass.
* A note to myself and just about everyone else
today is a very different Saturday. firstly, there is no usual service at JW but at Expo tomorrow instead. secondly, my relatives who migrated to Australia are back! And my maternal side of the family is having dinner together tonight. i haven’t seen those cousins for yeeears. i remember the last time they came back, the youngest cousin was still quite a child, and the few of us went to Takashimaya for a shopping trip. was quite exciting. i really wonder what they all look like now. well at least i have one of them on FB so i don’t feel as disconnected with her. haha.
i’m pretty excited for the start of school. but quite intimidated by some of the modules i have to take. but i shan’t confess negative things. i’m determined to have a good start, good process and of course, a good ending throughout the 2.5 years.
Reid and I went on a mini museum trip on Monday using museum passes my aunt gave us! Because we didn’t have much time and spent a LOT of time getting to our first destination, we only managed to visit two museums – the Peranakan Museum and the Philatelic Museum (museum of stamps).
Our first stop was to the Peranakan Museum. A very informative museum on the Peranakan Heritage, but I felt it could have been more interactive.
Next, we walked over to the Philatelic Museum. A very quaint and cosy place. I preferred it to the Peranakan Museum because it’s more interactive… More alive.
Some photos of the day (rest will be uploaded on FB!):

It’s back to playschool at the stamp museum. :)
So cool right, postwoman for the day.
Haha, put your face on a stamp!
Hahaha, cute lil’ astro boy.
Yes, clogs.
