Thought-Worthy

I was forwarded an email from sis-in-law, which remains unread in the Inbox for.........perhaps a few weeks. It's a usual assumption that the content is likely a joke or some inspirational email since the subject reads "Sometimes".

.

This time, it's neither of those.

.

Not only it is something short and sweet, but it made me pause for a while amidst my hectic activities at 10.25am.

.

On the thoughts - Indeed how many of us really remember the person(s) who went through tough times with us? - really tough times I mean. Especially after gaining success in life; status or monetarily - Most major or minor personalities would be naturally forgotten and is at most times, taken as a given or granted.

.

I do personally witness this at the work-place and these people don't earn my respect.

.

Finally, while we are all buried in our work-pile slogging our heads off, we must still remember our principles in life, our good colleagues, friends or families who 'believed' in us. Spent a good deal of time in appreciation of them. And if we happen to be that major or minor personality who had assisted or is assisting another person during his/her tough times, do it well.

Evening at Vivo City

During the Day
.
As usual, the daddies are at BBDC this afternoon for their respective 'motorbike' lessons. Yes, it's motorbike lessons. Class 2 for the ANG Master and Class 2B for Mr How.
.
Except for Mr How, the ANG Master did not pass his evaluation test today. We also heard that Mr Chua had enrolled himself today.....yay!! So that makes it 3 daddies with effect from next Sunday....(hee hee)
.
Oh well, even if the ANG Master fail today, there's still another chance next Sunday ok! We're looking forward to riding the Gold Wing or BMW.....(heh heh heh)
.
.
In the evening
.
The House of ANG and their usual gang decided to settle their dinner at the Vivo City. This time, to try out the hawker fare at the Food Republic (since it's usually Sushi Tei whenever the folks pop-by to Vivo-City)
.
.
We ordered a lot of food to be shared among the 5 adults. Cha-Siew Rice, Roti-John, Beef Steak, Korean Kimchi Soup and Bimbibab, Mutton Soup.......tuk tuk Kueh......and the food list goes on.....if the stomach permits.......(hee hee)
.
(I also want to buy a pair Mummy)
.
After a sumptuous dinner, the folks shopped around Vivo to look out for "cheap" and "good" track-shoes. After checking out at Adidas and Puma (the group concluded that Puma's service suck big time as the assistants do not provide any service at all...oppsss...)
.
After being slapped with that lousy customer service in the Puma shop, we proceeded to GIANT Hypermart for no-service instead really 'cheap' and 'good' track-shoes. While the adults were busy trying on their goods, Toddler ANG did not want to lose out! He headed straight to the bicycle department and hopped onto a mini 4-wheel bicycle.......
.
He was found cycling around the spacious departmental store for the entire time. All agreed that it is one of the fabulous way to refrain him from running about.....
.
(I don't want to be seen in this!)
.
(See, I'm a proud new owner of this BFX)
.
Finally, Toddler ANG is a happy owner of this new 4-wheel bike, with compliments of his Daddy. Despite trying to coax him to get off the bike so that the folks may proceed to the carpark, Toddler ANG refused. 15 minutes was given to him to 'show-off' his riding skills at the envy of many children.
.
Hmmm.......the ANG Mistress must make ANG Master buy her something from their next Vivo City visit. (heh heh heh)

Woot, it's hilarious but what's the point?

Had a real good laugh recently. Believe this has become a blog "entertainment" in Singapore.
.
It started with xiaxue (a young singapore blogger) who wrote an entry about the Top Seven Most Disgusting Blogger in Singapore. One of the listed candidate, a prominent gentlemen, Steven Lim (the famous Singapore Idol participant who stripped to his yellow 'triangle' swimming trunk) retailiate via his 8 mins video calling her a 'chicken pie' in return.
.
Hence the Xiaxue versus Steven Lim sarga.

20-07-2007 (a.k.a 20 July 2007)

This day is a special day - the date by itself is already special. Happy *2007 2007*
.
Celebrate 20-07-2007
.
To leave a memory on this special date, the ANG Mistress along with her 3 other buddy colleagues decided to do a small scale 'celebration'. How? By EATING of course!! heh heh heh.....so the folks stomped to Sushi Tei at Raffles City Shopping Centre, got seated and ordered in those delicacies.
.
There're salmon soup, assorted sushi, ramen, vegetable tempura, potato salad and agedashi tofu shared among the F4 - Female Four.
.

(Yummi-li-cious food all chomped down in less than half an hour)
.
(Hmmm....Yum Yum)
.
(Faces of satisfaction)

.
Racial Harmony Celebration
.
In the evening, the House of ANG spent a very meaningful time in Toddler ANG's daycare. It was the monthly "Parent's Talk Nite" and also the "Racial Harmony Day" celebration. At the centre's request, the parents made sure that all their children were dressed in their national/traditional costume that evening.
.
(A multi-racial song performed by the children & teachers)
.
(The dedicated team of teachers)
.
The children presented a multi-racial song and handed their parents a small hand-made "GO GREEN" pouch, handy enough to contain a plastic bag.
.
This activity is in line with the Food theme in this semester and also to support recycling. It is to convey the message of recycling, reuse & to avoid wastage.
.
The rest of the evening is spent mingling and getting to know each other and taking lots of pictures.
.
.
Double match *2007 2007* only happens once in a lifetime.....so.....the House of ANG wishes all a very wonderful day!

Costa Escapade

The House of ANG packed a bag & started their 14 July morning at Siloso Beach in Sentosa - A Costa Escapade - brief one though.....all thanks to the humid weather that morning.
.

.
It was a Family Day event so the usual 'entertainments' were lined up along the beach. There was this Beach Spa that the ANG Master is rather keen to try but the weather somehow discouraged him (so humid), so he decided to give it a miss - awwwww......no photos of 'macho man' then
.
Besides the Beach Spa, there were also other fringe activities lined up;
- Fun Fair stores for "ti-kam ti-kam" and lots of prizes to take home with;
- Bubble Foam Pool for the older children to play in;
- Creative Art corner for children who prefers to discover the Picasso in them;
- Dunking Machine for those who wants to see a babe into the water;
- Hair Styling Station for most of the vain ladies (haha);
- Toddler's playpit; where our Toddler ANG and some other young children were seen enjoying in.
.

.
As the saying goes "Early Bird gets the worm", it definitely pays to be early in our case. The ANG Mistress is rewarded by being a happy grand winner of the Early Bird draw - 3 adults tickets to the "SONGS OF THE SEA" at 7.40pm. Unfortunately, the folks of the House of ANG did not plan to stay in Sentosa for the whole day hence the tickets were graciously given to another colleague of the ANG Mistress.

Before the clock strikes 2pm, the House of ANG left for Home Sweet Home as the humidity starts to become more unbearable.
.
For all the energy exhausted at the Costa Escapade, the House of ANG rewarded themselves a good 3 hours of nap that Saturday afternoon!

Mickey Worn Out!

It finally arrive at a point that the ANG Mistress gotta find out this; how come her Toddler kept on wearing off his sandals. This change will be his 3rd since he entered daycare on 21 March 07.
.

.
(Very worn off at the edges!)
...
Let's see, his first pair of sandals was a nice baby blue pair from Bata. The ANG MIstress love their children bbg range (Bubble Gummers) and hence decided to let him wear to the daycare. Here's how it looked.

,. .
(Nice Bluey)
>>
Then it started to wear off in a matter of 1 and a half months so everyone at home is wondering why that can be the case. Without investigating further, the bbg bluey was replaced with a new pair of Mickey Mouse sandals around Early May.

.

(Making comparison - new vs old)

.

So in the end, we found out one day that he was riding this every day in the daycare during their outdoor activity.
.
(Now we know why it wears off only at the internal edge)
.
His current pair of sandals is from Bata - Yeah I know.....bbg range again!
This time, Anyone like to guess how long this pair will last him? - hah hah

.
PS: The ANG Mistress is wondering whether to switch Toddler ANG into wearing a sports shoe.
