Been attending quite a number of weddings lately..the most recent one was just yesterday, at Germaine & James' big day at Sentosa Resort & Spa. One of the reasons why I don't mind attending weddings is that I can get to wear my pretty cocktail dresses, most of which I've only like worn once before. Heh..so vain yah. But I also like to be part of a happy occasion lah. Here's my wish to the blissful couples - Hope you both grow old on one pillow! May you love and hold each other in the best & worst of times with trust, faith and belief!

Hmm, I think this is his shortest hairdo ever~ Makes him looks kinda different eh..he seems scrawnier. And his ears look bigger :D~

He's at the age where most of his friends/peers are bo-gay but all his milk teeth is still intact! Yeah, not a single tooth dropped yet although two of his lower teeth seems rather shaky. Yeah, Jean called me a worry-wart when I expressed my concern. The later his primary teeth drop, the longer his 'permanent' teeth will stay, she said. Okay, that sounds quite comforting. I told Aidan the story of the tooth fairy and now, he's more concerned than me (for material reasons). Oops! I hope he doesn't start prying his tooth out...

He's grown quite a bit eh..no more that baby-ish looking boy. He's like a little man now :) l1sh wrote about being mesmerized by her sleeping child..I do have that problem too. I really love looking at Aidan's face especially when he sleeps. He's such a handsome child (heh, I'm super biased), with his long eyelashes and impish, cheeky look. I can't help smothering him with kisses.. I sometimes wonder how I managed to create someone like that (yalah, I had help too!). Okay, okay..i'm getting way too rou-ma! But man, I'm not sure how I would react when he reaches puberty and starts sprouting pimples and growing hair in goodness knows where..

Wanted to bring Aidan for a short holiday somewhere since it was the school hols but was undecided for a while on where to bring him to. Couldn't afford to take too long a holiday as I didn't have many leave days left so places like Australia & NZ were out. I didn't want to go Hong Kong again since we were there earlier in the year and his daddy has promised to bring him there this November so..Macau it was! ( Read more... )

Was at the PinkDot event yesterday. Many turned up in pink to show their support for the LGBT community. The newspaper reported that there were 1,000 but sources revealed that there were about 2,500 pple. No, it wasn't a protest or parade of any sort...more of a celebratory event for those who believe in the freedom to love, regardless of their sexual orientation and to give support towards open-mindedness and understanding. The idea was to form a giant pink human circle and have an aerial shot taken of it...which they succeeded in doing as u can see from the picture here (the shot was taken from Furama hotel)

I have to admit..when the news of the takeover of Aware first broke, I didn't pay much heed to it. I'm generally quite passive about current affairs..But the newspaper coverage of it was intensive and so I dutily followed the saga through the reports. I also started asking my colleagues about how they felt about it. Most ..were like me, ambivalent. Some didn't even bother to read about it saying that it doesn't really concern them. Even though my stance was rather blasé initially, I still continued to follow the saga and on the night before the Aware EGOM, I don't know why but I just felt that it was the right thing to show up to cast my vote of no-confidence..I began to acknowledge that the series of happening has affected me somehow and that I shouldn't choose to remain bochap and remain apathetic. I guess I realised that if everyone had the same feelings as I had, then it will be really sad.

Have been in Hong Kong with the li' boy since Thursday! Will be only back tomorrow night! Aidan had been asking to go to Disneyland and I've been craving for a short holiday so I thought, what the heck :) We had 2 whole days of Disneyland *man..super tired siah* and today was meant to be relaxing as I'd arranged for a photoshoot at the hotel..the boy was pretty accomodating initially but when the shoot ended at the swimming pool, he became really grouchy because he wanted so much to go into the pool and erm, I didn't want to get my hair wet :P But he got his wish very soon after and now he's all burnt! But we're having a good time and he's asking to go to Disneyland again tomorrow *arghhhhh*!

Here's a preview of some of the pics..:)

Aidan declared last Friday that it was Piggy, Nosehair and Mousey's birthday on Saturday and that Deeno's birthday was on Sunday.Deeno as most of you should know, is the latest addition to the animal harem.( Read more... )

Those who knows me personally or who have been following my blog regularly would have always hear me describing Aidan as someone who is extremely hyper and active. He has boundless energy and would often be tearing through the house like a tornado..He always have a need to be constantly on the move. ( Read more... )

Oops..realised I haven't been updating my blog for a while...! Well, guess now I kinda do have a reason to since I have taken tons of pictures recently! Am pretty impressed with my Lumix LX3..Was helping out at the Singapore Entertainment Awards last evening and I couldn't possibly bring my big ass DSLR cam! Most of the stage pictures were taken without flash and the pics came out really clear! My colleagues who were from the Chinese team had been so busy with the award show and had been working till the wee hours in the morning for the past few weeks. Am glad for them that the show was such a success. It was held at the Marina Bay Floating Platform and there was basically no wet weather plan. If it had rained during the show, it would have meant that the show would be cancelled. And you know how crazy the weather has been lately. In fact, it was still pouring cats and dogs with thunder and lightning at around 3pm that afternoon..thankfully, the rain stopped and the show could go on :)

Yesterday over the phone, the boy was happily telling me that he had a great meal during recess time. I'd asked him what he'd eaten and he said he had a bowl of porridge, a plate of wanton mee and an ice-lemon tea. And he added that he still had 50cents to put into his piggybank. I swear my son thinks that the school canteen food is buffet style! The problem now is that he discovered that instead of ordering the biggest portion for his meal (which should be sufficient for him), he now orders the small portions but have 2 different meals instead.

Anyway, I digress. Back to the main point of my post. After our tele-conversation, I kept having this niggling feeling that something just wasn't right. So I did a mental calculation..
