Bro's Wedding

The reason I am back in Singapore, is to attend my brother's wedding on 1st July. Congratulations!

Even though this is a belated post, I have yet to see the photos from the official photographer. With a baby in toll, it was almost impossible to take pictures or have a proper conversation with anyone. I had to snap and run off to my needy baby. Fortunately for Derrick's new cam, I have a couple of decent photos at hand. The new Sony camera was definitely a good buy!

The usual wedding routine started in the morning where the groom and brothers got ready to fetch the bride.

Charlotte on the other hand was a total brat that morning. She does not do well in a crowded house. Whenever there is an occasion like CNY, in this case a wedding where everyone gathers together in a house, Charlotte tends to act up. She hated the attention that people gave her. She does not want anyone to touch or look at her. She will just be crying for Mummy every few mins or whining over nothing and it gets to my nerves. Look at that unhappy face of hers.

Getting her to take a pic was not easy.

Rare pic of her smiling

I lost my cool with her and gave her a good scolding because she was crying and whining way too much. She vomited on my bed and cried herself to sleep that afternoon. Sigh... 

The evening was much better. Mainly because everyone knows her reaction and tried their best to just ignore her as much as possible. Also, when it's meal time, food can really shut her up for a while.

Finally a nice pic of us without the monkey. Can you see her foot at the left hand corner of the pic? I had to dash off again after this photo.

The little monkey does not like attention. However she loved going up the stage to dance! She had a ball of a time dancing by herself up on the stage that day hahah. Oh well, whatever that makes her happy, makes mummy and daddy happy too.

At our dinner table

I managed to take a few photos with family on that day but I wished I had more time to be able to hold more conversations with everyone. At least I managed to take a nice pic with my grandma. I think this is one of my fav pic :)

Till the next wedding!

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 ...

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...

Bigger Issue

Now a bigger issue has risen for us to worry about. Due to unfortunate circumstances, LA seems to be going through an apocalypse. Everyone is told to stay at home. Schools, libraries, malls, everything is closed. No more dine in restaurants, only take out and delivery. Only shops that are open are mainly grocery stores and there are either limited food choices or there are queues to get in so as to ensure "social distancing". This "social distancing" is the in word now. I am not very sure about this term. But the distancing sux. It's so quiet everywhere, I feel like a zombie would appear in front of me any moment.  I just got news that even playgrounds will be closed starting tomorrow. How scary is that? Even though it has been scary going to the playground these days because we always end up being the only family there, at least the kids get to run a round a bit.  It is tough staying home with 2 kids. I feel frustrated and a bit lost. I don't want Ch...
