A few more random pics this week.. ;)

Knocked off work early @ 3pm on Tuesday afternoon..

As I was at East Coast Road & was craving for ice-cream, I took a stroll to Ice Cream Chefs for some..

Have not been there for quite some time...

吃冰淇淋l喔!Time for some ice-cream! :)

My yummy Milky Azuki Ice-Cream with extra mixed-in of shortbread! :d

Also managed to try the Cheese Shaker Fries from McDonald's™ @ Boat Quay when I was there on Wednesday afternoon..

Yummy! It's really very nice! :d

Angry Birds! Wahaha!

We still looking for the white bird & the black bird & also the green pig! ;p

Our dark wood cupboard arrived yesterday!

(Just like the rest of our house furniture, it's also dark wood, to go with the "Ebony & Ivory", black & white theme of the house..)

Cheap & good, simple & nice!

Remind me of those hotel cupboards.. Even the insides look like one! ;p

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival 2011, everybody! :)

When I went to pick up Jonathan Ezra, from playschool last evening, he exited from the school with these..

He made them himself..

I asked him: "Jonathan, you made this snow-skinned mooncake for me to eat?"

He said: "yes"..

So sweet.. :)

But he ended up eating half of it himself last night.. :S

He made a good attempt with the self-made lantern though.. :)

Ju Shin Jung East Korean Charcoal BBQ... with Amanda! :)

Amanda & I specially took half a day leave yesterday afternoon to go have a sumptuous lunch together! :)

We made a reservation with Ju Shin Jung East Korean Charcoal BBQ @ East Coast..

Look at the spread!

Mandy @ "work"! Wahaha! ;D

Mandy! :)

Me! :)

There was sooo much food that we could not finish everything.. :p

The food was "so - so" only.. Not that nice..

I like their Wagyu Beef & Pork Belly though..

The bill was even "nicer".. Just the 2 of us eating, the bill amounted up to $143..

Lol.. :p

Remembering 9/11...

A disaster brings out the best in people.

I think about all those firefighters, policemen & citizens who responded 10 years ago on this day.

Many of them died heroically.

Random Pics... (updated)

Visited Great World City, followed by ION Orchard last Thursday afternoon..

And guess what?!

I camwhored in the bathroom!!! LOL!!!

As usual, knocked off work early last Friday & treated myself to this @ Eastpoint!

Gong Cha Milk Alisan Tea 貢茶奶蓋青茶


Nice.. ;d

My mum bought me this key holder box on her trip to Malaysia recently! For our new home!

So sweet!

Thanks mummy! You're always the best! :)


Another TV for the playroom! Now there's a TV in every room in the house!!! :/

A 42 inch one in the living room, a 22 inch one in the master bedroom, this one in the playroom & a small screen one in the guest room etc.! :/

Purchased this Doraemon iPhone 4 cover yesterday!

Sorry for the lousy photo quality.. Took this pic using a Nokia phone.. :/

A pic I hang in my bathroom, next to the mirror so that I can see it & am reminded of His unfailingly promise every morning & night..

It's been my favorite verse ever since I was 17/18 years old till now..

[It's been 16 years into our friendship, Elim! Do you still remember?! ;) ]

We have officially shifted to our new home as of last Saturday! (Sorry that I have forgotten to mention in my previous blog post)

Yeah! Awesome! :D

Love our new house sooo much! :)

Big.. Beautiful.. Peaceful.. Quiet.. Convenient.. Great view during the day, night & at all times.. etc. :)

For the past entire week, I've only worked for a day.. :p

As mentioned in my previous blog post, I was on leave the Friday before last & on Monday, Tuesday was a public holiday in Singapore, thus I only returned to work on Wednesday..

Then again I took urgent leave on Thursday as Jonathan Ezra, had diarrhoea on Wednesday night & I brought him to see a pediatrician with Thomson Medical on Thursday morning..

Gosh! The consultation fee, together with the medical fee was exhorbitant! Just a very simple visit amounted to $170 over.. :/

But the medicine the pediatrician prescribed was extremely effective! :)

Then I was on Childcare Leave again on Friday as it was a school holiday & both the boys didn't have to go to school that day.. :)

So in summary, from the 26th of August 2011 to the 4th of September 2011, I only worked for 1 day!!! :p :)

Spent most of the days relaxing at home..

Visited the Sengkang Sports & Recreation Centre again yesterday..

Was there to check out the playschool for  Jonathan Ezra..

Cooked lunch upon reaching home..

Korean Mushroom noodles with spam, cheese & egg.. Cooked by yours truly.. :)

韓國香菇麵,加肉,芝士和蛋。。我煮的喔。。


Took 2 more random pics while I was bored that afternoon

The Green Hornet™ 3D Card Sticker.. 青蜂俠3D交通卡貼紙

Cars 2 Fridge Magnets.. Look! 3 magnets joined together makes up 1 picture! :)

An eventful & fruitful 5 day long weekend! :) (updated)

On Friday, which was the first day of my 5 day long weekend, I visited Singapore Changi Airport, Terminal 2..

Had not been there for quite awhile..

Was there to visit the doctor, as I usually do whenever I don't feel well..

Lots of people are still puzzled and would always question me on why I would go all the way to the airport to visit the doctors as they hardly know of anyone who does so..

Well, the answer is already obvious in their question! Why I would go all the way there to see a doctor is because no one does so! So apart from the distance having to travel there & also the consultation fee may be steeper, but the best part of it all is... there's hardly a queue! :)

Everytime I visit the doctor there, I don't have to queue or wait long for my turn! How cool is that?! ;)

Anyway, after seeing the doctor that morning, I was prescribed with lots of medicine in which several may cause drowsiness, thus fortunately for me I chose not to drive that morning!

I boarded a bus instead! :)

‎It was my 1st time taking a bus ride after sooo long!

It's been a doggone looonnnggg time ever since I ever rode on 1..

Wanted to drive but did't wanna take the risk as I was on medication that'll cause drowsiness.. 如果吃藥會使你想睡,最好是不要駕車,搭個巴士還是安全點兒!

Thus, I rode the bus to Compass Point Shopping Centre where I met up with my "bro", Jason, for lunch..

He not only treated me to lunch, he even gave me a ride home in his car after our lunch.. ;)

Thanks, bro! Next one's on me! ;)

On Saturday morning, I brought both the boys for breakfast @ McDonald's™ Changi Airport Terminal 3..

My boys love that week's train design that comes free with the Happy Meal! They have all 4 designs collected from the past weeks now.. :)

There's light emitted from the train's engine..



That night, I stayed up to watch the Presidential Election 2011 results.. Wanted to know who'll be our next president..

Bored.. Took this pic that night @1.30am..

Our unit has the most privacy as it's a long walk to & fro the 8th floor lift lobby..

Sunday was shopping day with mum!

That afternoon, my mum & I met up @ OG Albert Street where we shopped for household items & products for my new home! :)

My mum chose this set of cutlery for my new home..

Thanks mum! I love the color! It's my favorite color - blue!

And thank you, grandma, for this little gift! :)

Thank you, mum, for buying all these dining crockery as a gift for my new home! :)

Thank you, mum, for this hot water flask! :)

Thank you, mum, for these placemats & coasters! :)

Thank you, mum, for this very bright & cheery-looking serving tray! :)

After shopping @ OG Albert Street, we went for dinner @ City Square Mall & followed by some more shopping @ Mustafa Centre where we shopped for Teachers' Day gifts for Shawn Ethan's school teachers..

Monday was a very busy day for me!

That morning itself, sent Jonathan Ezra, to playschool, then I brought Shawn Ethan to Toast Box @ Compass Point Shopping Centre to have breakfast..

Went shopping for household stuff..

Checked out a new playschool for Jonathan Ezra..

Went home just in time for the LG staff who came to wall mount the 42 inch LED TV in the living room!

After which I spent the entire afternoon, sweeping & mopping the entire house, washing clothes, etc..

Despite us having "ebony & ivory" (black & white) as the color theme for our new home, I just realized today that the household items I bought for use in the kitchen & service yard are all colorful! I couldn't resist.. LOL! :P

This week..

Had the opportunity to visit a very new building in town early this week.. :)

Asia Square Towers..

Find out all about this new building at this website:

http://www.greatnewplaces.com/c590-AsiaSquaresSecondTower

As usual, I knocked off work early on several days this week..

Haven't visited the library@Esplanade for some time, thus I went there this afternoon to return my library book & also chilled there for awhile.. :)

Love that place..

It's one of my favourite places to hang out..

A peaceful & quiet place to chill out.. Check out on the latest performing arts programs.. Browse thru' music score books, music books, classical music albums, music & movie DVDs.. Listen to musicians practise on their violins & piano @ the piano room..

Lovely! :)

This week is coming to an end & the excitement is building because Singapore is gonna hold its Presidential Election this coming Saturday!

This year's an exciting year..

A happening General Election & now an exciting Presidential Election..

All 4 nominated candidates are very good..

Up till this point, I'm still deciding who should I vote for.. :p

While Singapore's busy preparing for our Presidential Election, U.S. is also busy preparing for the worst as Hurricane Irene is expected to worsen & hit U.S. East Coast..

Let's not forget to keep U.S. in our prayers!

P.S.

Here's me wishing all Singaporeans a Happy Presidential Election Day in advance!

Here's a little something from me to all Singaporeans reading this blog post..

Enjoy! (I've already had mine earlier this afternoon..) LOL.. :d

An eventful weekend! Our 1st sleepover @ our new home! Lots of random pics! ;p

Watched a number of movies on DVD again last week..

Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince
..

Every instalment of Harry Potter's rocks! :)

Yogi Bear..

Currently also Jonathan Ezra's favourite! Wahaha! ;D

Sucker Punch..

In my opinion, I have a love-hate relationship with this movie.. You can say I like it & yet dislike it too.. LOL.. :p

Found these when I was packing my stuff on Saturday afternoon..

One of my favorite piano score books.. Haven't played it in a long while..

最賣座的唯美音樂愛情電影,最值得典藏的流行古典樂譜獨家收錄!≪不能說的秘密≫ 電影經典對白+珍藏版浪漫劇照精選電影十二首插曲配樂 周杰倫親自指導彈奏指法技巧 周杰倫首部導演作品≪不能說的秘密≫唯一創作樂譜集

3 of my favorite Chinese actors.. Andy, Jet & Takeshi! Great movie too! :)

2 of my favorite Chinese actors.. Jackie Chan & Jet Li! Nice movie too! :)

That Saturday evening, I brought  Jonathan Ezra to take a ride on the MRT train..

His 1st time riding the MRT train to Sengkang & he's overjoyed! :D

That night was also our 1st sleepover @ our new home! :D

Jonathan Ezra, enjoying himself, eating his biscuits while watching his "Yogi Bear" movie DVD playing on our 42" inch LG LED TV in our new home's living room...

vs

Mike watching the 22" inch Akira LED TV in the new master bedroom...

Wahahaha!!! ;D

Only on Saturday night, during our sleepover @ our new home, did I realized that all the water taps are installed in such a way that we are able to choose to have hot or cold water!

Oh blind me! :p

Spot the lever attached behind the tap, switch it upwards & the water stopper goes down & stops the water fm flowing down the pipe.. Switch it downwards & the water flows down the pipe again..

Ok.. Guess I was really too bored, so much so that I enjoyed playing with it.. LOL.. :p

Couldn't fall asleep immediately on our 1st sleepover @ our new home, thus I took these following night shots from our bedroom window @ 3am..

LOL.. :p

The morning after dark!

The morning after our 1st sleepover @ our new home, took these following morning shots from our bedroom window.. LOL.. :p



This week's toy train design that comes free with a McDonald's Happy Meal..

This is the 3rd design so far.. 1 more to go! :)

After I've pasted on all the stickers... :)

That Sunday afternoon, we went to Spices Cafe @ Concorde Hotel Singapore to meet up with good old friends & also to celebrate Zhifu's birthday in advance there!

(Waiting for you to post all the pics you've took onto your Facebook profile account, Greg! Wahahaha!)

We had a great time! :)

That evening, we went to my aunt, Cynthia's place @ Punggol, Edgefield Plains, where we had Nasi Briyani & Chicken Curry for dinner! LOL.. :p
