Another 3 Months

I'm so tired today, I've no motivation to do any workout. Since the last post 3 months ago, I've been trying to get back into the workout regime. I would either follow some youtube videos at home or go for a jog while mason is taking his nap. It has been going on pretty well. I feel good after a jog. At least I get to be alone and perspiring makes me feel like I've put down a little weight (both physically and mentally). 

This week was off to a rocky start with Charlotte crying during her Chinese online lesson. This is not the first time she cries during lesson and it is starting to take a toll on me. I'm not sure how she really feels but it frustrates me whenever she cries. She seems to have a phobia in participating in group activities. Whenever it's her turn, she'll freak out and start to cry. It is usually for things that needs her to talk about herself, her feelings or very simple things like saying out a fruit. I'm not even talking about academic stuff that needs to be taught to her. I really don't know what is going on and whenever it happens, my mood just becomes really bad. I've not been able to lift my mood since she cried on her Monday lesson and it's already Wednesday today. She is going to have her second lesson for the week. I think I'm dreading the class as much as she is. 

For the past 2 months, we celebrated 3 birthdays. Mine, Derrick and Charlotte's. So the whole family had our birthdays and we will have to wait till next year for another birthday now.

My birthday. I had a yummy Lady M birthday cake.

Derrick's birthday. My first time baking a whole birthday cake. It wasn't exactly what I envisioned it to be but at least it tasted good.
His homemade gift.
Finally it was Charlotte's birthday. For the first time, we celebrated outside our house and with some other people. We held a little birthday celebration at our friend, Linda's house. She has kindly invited us over, made lunch for us and even decorated the house. As requested by the birthday girl, I made a unicorn cake for her too. I'm pretty proud of my cake. The toppers I bought made the cake looks so much more expensive hah. Most importantly, it tasted good! I made a blueberry cream cheese cake.
I think she had a great time on her birthday.
Such a big girl.

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

Happy Chinese New Year!

A very big Thank You to Jetstar and JetSaver Light! We had an AWESOME trip. Not only was it a cultural and stomach full filling trip filled with nothing but one of the very best food :), we also experienced the affable nature of the people in Penang and most importantly, we made many friends to keep :) Below was the itinerary that got us selected.
