Doing Well....

Charlotte's 3rd ballet lesson went well! She paid more attention this time and made more effort to follow through the class. But at her age, she is still not able to do most of the movements properly. She cannot even put her legs together to bend up and down. She will just squat down in an unsightly manner, looking like she needs to poop hah. But as long as she tries to follow and does not cry during class, I am satisfied. A parent with a 2 year old kid was surprised that she was able to follow through as she said that her kid does not have the discipline to do so. Hah tell me about it. If the mum was around during Charlotte's 2nd lesson, she would have thought otherwise. Kids are so unpredictable. One day they are good, the next they are just screaming and crying away.

Swimming this week went well too. I made a reminder in my head that I should try to push Charlotte's limit a little. Since she has attended quite a couple of swim classes, it is time i let go a little more. At least Charlotte is now able to strike a pose like she is about to dive in the water (hands straight up above the head, head and body bent) even though the actual dive doesn't look as great as her pose hah. She even made an effort to let go of the side of the pool to swim towards me today. The teacher praised her today and I was happy about it. 3 more swim lessons and we are done with the package. Thereafter, it is time for us to head back to Singapore in June. It will be like summer break for Charlotte. She will have a whole new different routine when we are back in Singapore.

The Orange Timber

Today was a pretty chill day, walking around, eating and reading my book! It has been a long time since I walked along Blk 85 market. I think the last time was during my sec sch days, on my way back to my grandma house after sch. Since I had breakfast there with my grandma today, I showed der the old sch cake shop where Cham and I bought a huge cream cake (not those fanciful ones we get these days) and finished it all by ourselves under the void deck! Der and I couldn't resist the temptation to buy a slice each :) Strawberry vs blueberry...Only $1.10 each. Those miniture ones that are sold at toast box cost $1.20 and they are only 1/3 the size of this! What a rip off for something nostalgia... Later in the evening, we decided to chill at The Orange Timber @ Tiong Bahru The Orange Timber is a cafe cum art gallery. The plates are bowl used were also meant to be something nostalgia once again... hah However, I use those cutlery at home too. There are like 3 sections to this small cafe...

Having the Chills

If you, Derrick is ever reading this, I would suggest you close this page. It's my right to type whatever I want. I won't mince my words because this is my space. I hardly feel unwell and this not the best time to fall sick. Yet I'm having the chills. Whenever my boob hurts, I will start to get the chills and a little temperature. It had to come at the time when i'm feeling totally not in the mood to do anything. I think I should swallow a few more pills. What I had isn't enough. Guess feeling down really brings down one's immune system. We just got news that we will be moving back to Singapore and the first thing that came to my mind is F*** I've to face her. That fake face (literally fake. No amount of make up helps la. old means old. draw what draw) who pretends she doesn't care or even when we talk face to face she says no no it's ok. PUI! Der will be unhappy reading this but i blame it on him for making the situation like this. No amount of ...
