Yellow Boy

I took these photos few weeks ago. JD wore a whole set of yellow t-shirt, pants & shoes. He looks like the Digi yellow man (but he is the thin yellow man).

A Rainy Trip to Melaka

Last week, we had a 3 days 2 nights trip to Melaka. In the Sunday morning, we went to the A Famosa Resort, Melaka first, because KV has to participate in an Arithmetic Competition. We didn't spent much time there becasue the whole day was a rainy day. We checked in hotel around 3pm. We stayed in the hotel until dinner time, then went to dinner. The kids couldn't get out to swim due to raining. The whole day raining, raining, and raining... sigh!

The second day, still raining from morning to evening. So we spent most of the time for shopping.

The third day was a sunny day. The kids were able to enjoy swimming in the morning. We left Melaka around 1pm.

A 100th Anniversary

Last Saturday, HM's company celebrating their 100th Anniversary at Mandarin Oriental Hotel. More than 1,300 staff attended. Spouse is not invited, so I have to stay home and take care of KV & JD lor :(

HM has been joining this company for more than 10 years. Do you think 10 years are a long period? The answer is ... (depands on your justification... hahaha). HM told me that some of her colleagues have been working with the company for more than 20 years or even 30 years. OMG! The company should appreciate these kind of loyalty staff.

Here, I have uploaded some photos with HM consent... xD

From Left to right : Jimmy (HM's superior), Yong, Mee Ling, Voon, HM, Sim & Mok Lang.

HM told me that in the lucky draw, Mee Ling (the lucky girl) won a 42"LCD TV worth RM4,000. She was really lucky.
From all the above photos, can you guess who has been working with the company for more 20 years or 30 years? hihiiiii...

Ballet Trial Assessment

Last Sunday, KV attended a Ballet Trial Assessment at her ballet school. After a few months learning of new syllabus, this assessment is to let the student know what suppose to do in the real examination. The real exam will be around next year March. So the student still got few months to practises and enhance their technical skills.


The parents were invited to sit thru this assessment and I got the chance to take some photos and video. In the assessment, the teacher also explained in detail to the parents what the students have learnt in the class. The assessment took about 45mins to finish.

DIY Hair Accessories

HM did some DIY accessories for KV. HM learnt it from a Taiwan TV Show "Good Idea". The little pink flowers can be use as hairclips, ear-rings or even rings. A lot of things can be created with your own idea and creativity. The material to be used are nail polish & soft wire only. It's simple and easy to do.

Birthday

Last week was my sis-in-law birthday. Her boyfriend bought her a white chocolate birthday cake and we celebrated her birthday at home with the kids.

Everytime they is a birthday cake, the kids always assumed the cake is for them, they don't care whether or not is their birthday. They will blow candles & cut cake together.


You can see, they blew candles together.

The kids were so happy with the birthday celebration.

Christmas

Last week, we went to The Gardens, Mid-Valley & KLCC. I found out that most of the shopping malls have decorated with x'mas trees and having Christmas sales. I always looking forward to the Mid-Valley Christmas decoration. This year, Mid-Valley has new theme for their Christmas decoration. For The Gardens, their decoration very nice too. But KLCC, always used back the same ugly x'mas tree, no new idea at all, very disappointed.

Here was the Mid-Valley Centre Court.

Here was The Gardens. Three huge bird cages are allow children to play inside.
Here was the L'Occitane display corner at The Gardens.
Here was the ugly x'mas tree at KLCC.
