On This Day - (31st July) #Reminders from FB#

31st July 2021

Thank you Siam Square Mookata. We really miss your food.

Happy grilling! Happy steamboating! Happy kids!

Footnote written in 2022 :

It's nice but ehh...no.... I think I won't even grill food in my balcony. My neighbours might complain, I have very super complain kings/queens here.

31st July 2020

Nah... let me transport you to my home. My nature-like home. Hove the view from my home. Nice greenery outside, got baby pool view, nice waterfall sound. So peaceful ... listen to the water cascading down…..imagine you're in paradise .... until lil' one starts yakking away in the background. Spoiler!

This caught my attention on the way to pick che-che from school yesterday. This is the side view as it wasn't convenient for me to snap the actual view.

Looks like the animal was stretching out it's hands to welcome the sun (yup! That was where the sun was) after all the raining.

31st July 2017

What's going on? It's 2.27pm now and no one is out from school yet?

31st July 2016

Today's competition results.

Yay! Top in Division. Quite surprised coz I felt CCHS was rather powerful plus I also heard 2 squeaks n 1 flat note in our girls' song.

The end of a tiring month, with half day on Saturdays gone. Rest a while before another Saturday morning is taken for some audition.

 

31st July 2013

Now I know y everyone's crazy about Minions.

We only managed to watch it today after their home-based learning.

They're really cute!!

31st July 2011

They were close as brothers. And now the older brother gave up his will to live and decided to join his younger brother. Traumatic week for us! 2 passing within 8 days. God bless his soul.

31st July 2011

U see lah! Papa not around, they invaded my whole bed. Where am I going to sleep?

Footnote written in 2022 :

It was a Sunday in 2011 too, girls sleeping in my bed coz daddy is not in SIN.

Now? 11 yrs later? Lil' one up since 8am, che-che still in koon-ing 💤 land. And they both will sleep in their rooms, wouldn't want to sleep with me even tho all of us turn on aircon

The big 无聊 girl is so free coz school hasn't started for her yet!

#sofreetokeepirritatingherlittlesister#

Said she drew this on lil' one's whiteboard coz copied the one lil' one did long time ago

Took me a long time to find back this post 

30th July 2021 

Athena Ting asked me before how long it'll take to walk from one end to another of Central Park. Gave her an estimate (based on my walking speed last time) coz I never walked all the way to the end, she can find it out herself next time.

Maybe with her longer legs she'll walk much faster than I did and also coz I like to #tHia] take pictures last time K.

I do rmbr well tho I went out with a CSS,Christine, to meet her friend, who has an apartment facing Central Park. Lovely view of the park from his house. Told myself I'd love to own an apartment there one day.

And it was that same flight where she n I fell asleep in the front row while watching The Scarlet Pimpernel (to the Broadway cast, I'm terribly sorry) as we were both jet-lagged.

Footnote written in 2023 : 

And she’s getting ready to go over now

30th July 2017

I saw a building and commented to lil' one. "They couldn't think of any name to name the building." She looked ahead and read out "EFG" and laughed.

30th July 2017

Che-che's $19 wagyu burger (without vegetables), add cheese $1 and add bacon $4. Basically I'm paying $19 for the beef patty; bun and potato chips!!

Total: $24 😮

Chilli crab!! I dunno if this oddly timed meal is going to be our dinner or what....actually already cooked rice at home. I guess will wait for che-che, let her have her dinner here.

Lil' one stealing my food!!

My chilli crab spaghetti

She ate some of my spaghetti and says this is better than the one from Coffee Club

Looks like I’m the one eating kids meal

赚到咯！ just coz she refuses to stay at home alone, I gotta drag her out.

Off to the Asian Civilisation Museum just coz we’re there … 

Waiting for che-che for some band thingy to be over

30th July 2013

Where was I when I was in Sec 1 after school? Home!

I was so guai to bus home everyday even tho' I was a latchkey child.

Now I see Sec 1 boys n girls hanging in Macs.

Nothing to 大惊小怪 if u see the "blue girls" sitting amongst the "termites". But they're Sec 1 leh! In my time, you'd only see girls 'buoh-ing n giggling at boys' in Sec 3.

Oh my oh my! Kids mature really fast now.

Makes me fear if my girl will be like that. I need a ROPE!!! Hahaha!

All over and done with. Yay!

Except for fever that lil' one and I had for the last y and tiredness we all experienced the next day, we are all well. No arm sore except only on the day of jab itself.

Other than that, we're all awaiting for vaccine to

"take effect" 😬

Some time back, che che said a classmate brought melted marshmallow with Pebbles and shared with the class. That it's nice and asked me to do it one day.

I misinterpreted the whole thing n mine looked like this. She saw, slapped her forehead n smiled. It's nothing like what her friend did.

Hee! It's ok, I'm only going to do 6. And she gotta eat it for breakfast whether she likes it or not!

Hopefully next round can do better.

28th July 2016

Must sneak a pic. Then she spotted me.

Champion for Division 2B : Good Hope School

Symphonic Band.

KC Band 3rd place. Ehh...to console myself, 1st in local schools for Division 2B.

Girls worked hard. Parents have to do extra chauffeuring on weekends. Tiring month!

28th July 2016

Looks delicious. Can look but cannot bake this coz nobody fancies green tea except me.

28th July 2016

Haven't done this for the longest time.

Reading & listening to classical music and a drink from Mcs.

If only I can prop my feet up on the chair across me.

28th July 2009

feels like baking but ... the kids are keeping me so occupied.

Me: Meimei come here (point to her bed)

She: why?

Me: come here…..massage

She: yay  👏 (coz I've given her some short breaks between studying n helped massage her back - scoliosis n jutting tailbone causing her pain n discomfort - many times before so she's happy.

Thinking it'll be the same.)

She: walks to the bed

Me: [immediately plonk myself down] massage me!

She : hey... (pouts) massage me..

Me: you said yay to me means i take it that you're happy to massage my back for me 😉 . Yay!

A question to all Catholic friends.

Why do St Sebastian altarpieces always kena arrowed one? I've seen a couple before and this was taken in Salzburg.

TIA

27th July 2017

What kind of police vehicle is this?

27th July 2017

人长得不错、穿着也很端正

可是没礼貌！

I saw a guy with office wear carrying box of wine and another bag in his other hand. I was on the opposite side of the door, there was eye contact. I walked up quickly towards the door, and opened the door for him and let him through before I did. Not even a word of thanks or smile. What the ?? Even my girls, who are much younger than him, knows how to thank people graciously.

27th July 2013

I prayed for good weather not rain leh!

Hope it clears up before the show.

27th July 2013

Just passed by on our way to Orchard. Hey! We got a preview too!

27th July 2013

My big baby. Enjoy yourself!

27th July 2012 

It's always so nice to tease my lil' one. She peeled her nose skin n it bled, my remedy to stop the bleeding is to : 1)lie down with tissue 2) keep quiet (finally some peace!!) 3) raise one hand up 4) raise 2 legs up

Heehee! Evil mummy!!

Footnote written in 2022 :

and she believed / trusted me. 🤣

Why am I such a bad mummy? 😬
