Ok, I know this is kinda an extremely late post (10 days to be exact), as I believe I have been quiet for quite some time already. Plus haven’t been podcasting for the past 2 weeks already. Well, for starters I’m kinda brain drain right now due to the fact that I don’t know what to talk about. Yeah, go figure. Besides that, I’m busy reconstructing a website which was supposedly be my side income, but have neglected it for quite some time already. So that really took up more of my time. Anyway, will try to be more frequent again as everything has sort of slow down for me.
Finally 2 years old
My little girl is finally 2 years old. And the cake you see there is the cake she decided to choose for herself. We thought she wanted the one with the princess or Winnie the Pooh, as she has been talking about it inside the car when we headed over to Taka. Anyway, when we flipped the album to see which cake she wants. She started shouting “ELMO!”, and didn’t want to choose other cakes. Even as much as we tried to check with her how many times to see if she really wants it or either the princess or winnie the pooh, she kept on insisting on Elmo. Until she got fed up and choose the princess one. But we ended up telling her she’ll be getting the Elmo cake and she was thrilled. But the catch was that she needs to wait till Friday evening before can get it.
Trying on Mommy's Clothes
So on Monday, she have not totally forgotten about the cake yet. She was wondering how many times she has to fall asleep before she gets to see Elmo again. So mommy decided to distract her on all that, and start giving her things to do to take a few things off her mind. Mommy just washed her blouse and decided to give Esther a try on how she would look like. When I first saw this pic when Deluxe showed to me, it looks as if she was wearing a Kimono. Maybe I should try looking for one and buy something like that for her. Never the less, it was all good.
Give me my cake please
Anyway, Deluxe told me on Wednesday she was talking to her bears and dolls, saying that still need to wait till Friday. When Daddy close the shop, we will go and get the Elmo cake. Poor little girl, learning what patience is all about. But she’s kinda cute, and Deluxe was trying very hard not to laugh. Friday came, but she still needed to wait. So Deluxe went and try letting her use her new birthday clothes, special thanks to her Grandaunty Zainap. So this is how she looks like in the picture below.
Trying her new clothes
Anyway, the long wait has finally come. When she saw Elmo for the first time, you could see the biggest smile she has ever made. Instead of a purple Elmo that was in the picture, hers is a red color cake. So the next day we finally celebrate Esther birthday. Last year, just 3 weeks before her birthday she started walking. This year, 1 week before her birthday she became potty train already. And yes, she’s starting to grow up to be a big girl already. That’s pretty much about it for now. Will post up some other photos of her tomorrow. You guys have a good day.
Got caught up with a few things last week. As I’m still looking for the perfect template to renovate a few sites. Lol. Anyway, how we celebrated moon cake festival? Well, we attended the church celebration on the 26th September. It was packed with a lot of people, but Deluxe, Esther and myself decided to excuse ourselves first because Esther was getting a bit cranky probably due to the heat. The night started off with singsparation, whereby Tsou Kai did an excellent job again cranking up people to get up and sing. Got to give him credit for his eagerness as well as creativity. After that there were a music presentation made by the youth, and shortly after that, it was question and answer time once again. Like last year, if you get the correct answer you will get Ang Pao for all your effort. After that, I believe it was the lantern procession but we didn’t stayed on for it.
Anyway, behind the street of Main Bazaar from 29th September till the 3rd of October, there would be an annual food sales at the back. However this year, the stalls seems to be less compared to the previous year. The crowd also didn’t turned up from what I expect it to be. A few stalls which we normally would go would be a stall selling Hot Dog Cheese a must get, but it wasn’t there. Anyway, it was a bit disappointing because it wasn’t as happening as before. Maybe it was due to the rain last year, people didn’t want to set up any stalls. Oh well, never the less, it was still good as Esther had been wanting to go out every night to see what’s happening at the back.
Unfortunately due to my internet connection I wasn’t able to update my blog for the past few days. I did a very long post, and each time I click save or apply the whole thing just wipe out without saving and gave me an error. Apparently this has been my 12th attempt in making this post. I’m still having a hard time uploading my Jakarta trip pictures. Sigh, we shall see how it goes as I’m now currently typing all these in words first then try to post it later.
Well, you can’t blame them for doing so as it was part of their duty. So it’s all good. But whether rain or shine you can be sure that these police were giving their 202% in making sure everything goes smoothly. So you pretty much can’t blame them for not doing their job right. So kudos to all the traffic police who put their effort in every little thing they do. You sure have my respect.
