Blur me! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Sometimes I have no idea what my brain is for coz I tend to forget things or remember things vaguely.

Today is one of the example when I mistook the pick up time. Was about to grudge that I barely have a breathing space when I gotta dash out of the house to pick lil’ one. Ok not really dash out, I did a quick splash before I left the house (thankfully).

I was waiting outside her school for 5mins past her dismissal time when I started to wonder what took her so long (as sometimes she ends 15-30mins before dismissal time). Something triggered my woke-up brain that I remember her “4.15! I end school at 4.15pm coz I have test on that day.” Hmmm…..🤔 now which day is it?

Checked my phone calendar. 🤦🏻‍♀️ *slap head moment* DUH! It’s today. Since I’m 1hr 10mins early, decided to pack dinner in the nearest mall here instead of going to the mall opposite our house after pick-up. The one and only foodcourt is closed in this mall and there’s no way I can get economical dishes. Cooking plain rice at home was my intention so that I can cook extra for next day’s school and work lunch. So now I have to cook plain porridge for her. A small pack of minced chicken was to thaw since morning, no chilli basil chicken it will be then.

Weirdest things ppl use to 'chope' table. Spectacles!!

I see also laugh, woman rushes up to table n put specs down; followed by tissue paper. The owner of the specs came by 30secs later n put on his specs.

I'm surprise that he even found his way there.

What hv u seen?

My ah girl tells me happily "mummy mummy when a sperm meets and joins with an egg, it's called pollination." I want to faint!!

** edit - if you'd like to know. The ah girl I'm referring to is che-che.

How irritating can it be - when you go into the shop and ask SA about their products and she has the slightest inkling knowledge. How can they hire such staff?

Mei-mei's class work which is bullshit!! Hahaha! "My mom's favorite thing to do is COOKING". ???? I don't like to but I love to bake.

For the past 2 days, I hv been seeing property agents standing outside the school giving out pamphlets for a new launch, knocking at car windows. I managed to evade the group of 3-4 agents each day. Now outside PP, kena approached again by 3 agents.

Haiz! Took pamphlet and gonna use it to wave off the next agent who's going to approach me.

Getting phonecalls at home if we wanted to sell our home all these years. Rather irritating .... Oops! No offence to my property agent friends.

A vy happy child, she looks forward to Art class. Her work today. And she proudly told the teacher that I display her art piece on top of the piano.

Lil' one just said something that made me laugh out loud.

Whenever she does any work, her mouth also moves in tandem to the question or whatever 😅 more so when she's doing MA or POA.

So today, she was talking n sighing away and before she could say anything I commented "your brain's fried " which is her usual comments. Then she looked at me "I see numbers flying around me. I really see numbers flying around."

My daughter is a visionary I told her. Do you see any 4 numbers? predict any numbers so I can buy 4D?

Let me strike 1st prize.🤣

Pauline Patrick Teo - kor, your niece got another pattern 🤣#realtruthidontgamble# #thejoker#

On This Day - (13th Mar) #Reminders from FB#

Had a nice time meeting baby R and mummy C today.

I think lil' one makes a good babysitter. Baby R will love her as long as she offers her hands to him 🤣

My tom yum, this time round I made sure I have my parsley #多多香菜#

Lil' one likes it, requests next time I add sugar for hers ☺️

One likes steamboat, the other likes grilled food.

Everyone's satisfied.

Our yearly Sakura 🌸 date....missing our dear Magdalene Ong again 😘

13th Mar 2020

Sakura III (b) - picked che-che up from PP and barely an hour I left GBB I made my way back again. It was supposed to be a trip with lil' one but since she's resting at home, it's a date with my big girl.

My pics are taken with iPhone since she's the one using the camera when she's present, so pardon the pic quality. There's a reason why I'm there with her tho. I had to hold her water bottle for her while she was taking pics! *wink* Will check her pics later.

They should make me a VVIP for being such a frequent visitor. 🤣

haha!

And then I was trying so hard to get pics of petals dropping down since Wednesday, I saw some petals dropping n was so happy.

Until more petals dropped 🤣 then we found the culprit

Culprit caught in action. Pity I couldn't take a zoomed pic of the bird coz che-che hates to use my 200mm lens, so it'd take time to change lens. True enough, not long after the bird flew away.

* recorded her playing one of her classical exam piece. I cannot upload in here due to copyright reasons.

There's still room for improvement in my fav piece.

See her fingers run so fast (I can't even do it) I also miss a heartbeat played by Athena Ting recorded in secrecy

Packing wedding albums

想当年….

Studio & outdoor

On wedding day. Best friend Wilma Cheng maid-of-honour ..but chinese don't do that they say it's all 姐妹团. Anyway, since she's my best friend I made sure I make her slog hard on my day. Muahahahaha! Kiddin' I'm the youngest and no younger brother, so made a friend's son to be my brother. This boy was so cute, first time he attended a chinese wedding, he was so happy with all the red packets. He realised there were money inside. Needless to say, when he got back to UK he did my wedding as his Show&Tell
