Brought my nephew to Escape Theme Park for his 6th Birthday.
The place is rather small and definitely more suitable for kids. But I'm sure Jen Fai had some a good time there :)

Our Annual Lunch @ Hoshi on Xmas Day
our sixth year! the same restaurant! our annual lunch! almost the same food! but no more same seats though! as usual... one thing will never change! the sweetness!
almost couldnt make it. we had to go for some prayers to my granny, thought we had to give it a miss this year. but luckily the prayers were arranged to be in the morning and ended just nice for lunch.
it's always sweet to go back there. in addition, they had really made over everything.. their restaurant outlook, design, and even menu... We were spoilt for choice and had to flip the menu a couple of times before we could decide what we want to eat... :)

a quiet xmas... @ Delima Singapore
due to some domestic matters at home...no major gathering this year. all we had, and good enough, was a self-cooked dinner with my brothers & sisters... Self-cooked dinner and DAMN DELICIOUS man !!! all thanks to my brothers and sisters... both my wife and myself felt so "useless"... all we did were simply to open our mouth and EAT!!! the food was really GREAT !!!

My new toy
I never thought I would switch away from Nokia, but I found a phone that made me do just that!
The Samsung Pixon - A touchpad phone with a 8 Megapixel camera!
Some call it the Camera with phone features :p
Well, I'm loving it so far!
Hope I won't be disappointed as I continue to use it....
Thanks my dear hubby for the lovely present!

A Jazzy Christmas by Jeremy Monteiro
Every year during the Christmas season, we always look forward to attending the Jazzy Christmas concert by Jeremy Monteiro. This is the 3rd time we have attended this and we still love it!
We especially loved the harmonica playing by his special guest, Mr Toots Thielemans. Even at the age of 86, he is still considered the world's best harmonica player!
Already looking forward to next year's concert!!

The time has come...
All this while, my family has been preparing ourselves that grandma is probably "going" soon. Given that she's 98 yrs old, and towards the end she was already in a pretty bad shape, we somehow knew she might not be able to make it through chinese new year...
Last friday, she finally gave in and decided that it's time to go. She passed away peacefully in SGH after hospitalised for almost 2 weeks. In her 2 weeks stay, she was on drip because she couldn't swallow anymore. And she was also on breathing support due to her weak pulse and lung dysfunction.
We had a 7 day funeral for her, taken into consideration that my dad was a 5 day affair previously. According to our custom, my grandma will need 2 more days than my dad. Thought it was long, it went off like a flash. Probably we were too busy with the things involved in funeral that time just slipped by unknowingly.
Towards the end, we were all feeling sad that this day has truly arrived. The only way to console ourselves is that, it's good to know that she's no longer suffering. Through this event, we also realised how much we were missing dad... over the past 1 to 2 years, our families have gone through so many funerals... we were flipping our photos, and were sad that so many loved ones in the pictures are no longer here... That only reinenforced the fact that time is precious... going off by the seconds... do not waste them and spend more time with your loved ones. Not next week, not tom, but today!
btw... my family wanted to check if grandma came home on the seventh day... They pour flour all over the house to see if there are any footprints... here's a pic. Can you see the foot print... there were 2!!!

short yet v x 2 shiok !
Always shunned the idea of going batam. What's there? nothing interesting la, blah blah blah... Somehow if it's a long-awaited break, and with a bunch of buddies especially, regardless where you go, it will definitely be fun-filled and AWESOME !
Imagine doing nothing... laze by the pool... swim a little, tan a little... time for dinner, let's go have a seafood feast that was so dirt cheap... Not Enuf??? NEVERmind, TA PAO (and that's exactly what we did!). back in the cosy hotel room... of course! "What time is it" it's tiger time! + Continue eating the crabs, calamari and licking your fingers while enjoying some movies or music in the background !!! :D :D :D
well, besides lazing around... the girls went for a spa retreat. And guess what! It was so refreshing and rejuvenating that they wish they could squeeze some time to go for more. Price?? cheap also la !!!
it was a very enjoying and relaxing trip. We truly enjoyed it... and we are already planning to go back in the very near future... :D
here are a couple of pics taken during the trip. But somehow despite how much we enjoyed ourselves... we kept feeling that somehow, something is not complete... we were missing someone!
