Fathers' Day



It's DC's first Fathers' day today. :)

I made him a collage from some of his photos with our baby taken outside. There is no question that he is a good and loving father. The photos show all - him grinning in every one of the photos while feeding, playing and "bullying" Baby! :)

At home, he was also wonderful to me. From someone who didn't know how to carry a baby, someone who told me that would only play with the baby to someone who now cook, bathe and feed Baby effortlessly, I cannot be more glad and proud to have him as the father of our baby! :)

I'm sure his effort is not wasted, I can see that Baby likes him a lot. Esp today, Baby is exceptionally sticky to him today - during our dinner with my bro, he kept crying for DC - as if he knows what day it is today...

Happy Fathers' Day, Daddy!

Didn't forget the grandfathers... we had Japanese dinner with DC's dad yesterday and I texted my dad a message this morning (he's now enjoying himself on his 11 day trip to Taiwan with my mum, sisters n family, we'll probably have a good dinner when he's back tomorrow).

I like rain but not flood

The day Orchard Road turned into Orchard River...


About 100mm of rain fell in the central parts of Singapore between 8am and 11am today. This was more than 60 per cent of the average monthly rainfall for June.

I was one of the many affected by the heavy downpour. At near lunch time, I heard my colleagues speculating why there was a traffic jam when they saw the immovable vehicles from their window. Then, at lunch time, we knew from a colleague that the whole Orchard road was closed. We couldn't go anywhere for lunch, so we settled lunch at the next-door hotel! A lousy day for those who were trapped in Orchard Rd but we, on the other hand had a good reason to enjoy our lunch. Because of the weather and ambiance of the restaurant, it feels like a lazy day. Wished I was snuggled under my blanket then! Some of my colleagues even had their external meetings canceled as there were no way for them to reach us.

I never thought Orchard Rd could be flooded. Lesson learnt: Never never take things for granted!

Playtime was such fun


Here's Baby enjoying his playtime... His laughter never fail to bring a smile to my face! :D

He cannot be bothered with these big cubes even though he has no problem lifting them up in his hands. However, after this session of fun and laughter, he showed a leaping interest in them! One more toy to capture his attention and to keep him entertained! :D

Grey Matter


I find myself buying more grey coloured clothes nowadays. Last Fri, when I was in a shop in Marina Square trying out the clothes in the fitting room, I suddenly realised that hey, all the clothes that I'd chosen were grey! Ha... I never like grey as much as I like my whites, blacks and blues, so I never had a lot of grey clothes in the past. It's surprising that my wardrobe now comprises mainly of greys cotton drapes and my grey collection is growing, esp when it's the GSS season now! :) Grey days ahead, haha...

Grey is my new black! It is cool (not dull!) and neutral and the shades can be worn from top to bottom and layered on top in whichever way you like. The colour makes a great base to the outfit... matches with almost every colour. I heart the grey look with metallics accessories and blink blink!



And, p.s. Grey is also now the trend for men!

Floor Ads

Something caught my eyes when I was on the way to the library last week. When I looked down, I saw these:


Let's hope the advertising efforts won't go down the drain!

Happy Hubber


We have recently subscribed to StarHub TV. This was actually on my wish list for the longest time, finally I can strike it off! :P

Before I got married, my eyes were almost always glued onto the TV screen during the weekends busy catching HK or Korean series that I've missed on the weekdays and the Taiwanese beauty programmes. It has been years since I had that experience!

Then came the days where I was left with no choice but to watch channels 8 and U. I did follow some local productions and Korean series along the way but secretly wished there were no commercial breaks.

Back then, I used to appreciate the continuous repeated casting of 5 episodes on the weekends but now, I was wowed by how much more the new HubStation could do compared to the previous setup box! Now I can play back selected programmes I want to watch at anytime within 7 days of screening, start over a programme that was already showing on TV, purchase by episodes or whole video, do a fast forward or pause all at the convenience of a click of a button! These improvements were simply amazing! :)

DC and I have been enjoying good TV time after putting Baby to his bed at night. We've completed 学察狙击 (Thumbs Up!),大冬瓜,幕后大老爷 (Nice) and now catching 该颖与亚伯 and 法政先锋II (Thumbs Up!)! The next one coming up (富贵门) seems nice. I think I'm hooked! :P

Not sure whether the box by the rival company has the same features but the last known was that they do not serve my area (no reception). Anyways, I'm very happy with StarHub TV. No complaints with the other services that we've subscribed as far as I know - StarHub Mobile, Digital Voice and MaxOnline...
