Groupie Gathering

25 August 2012

Our usual groupie gathering.

Dinner was at the Tangs Island Cafe at Tangs. AA suggested this place and I agreed.

Group asked why here - well, because it will not be crowded.

I certainly do not like to jostle with the crowds and to queue for a long time for my food.

Local food at this cafe. The 2 dishes that stands out are the Crayfish Laksa and the Tahu Telor. The rest are only so-so and on the one occasion that I had gone there with hubby, the Penang Char-Kway-Teow was terrible.

But I must say, the Tahu Telor was the best that I had ever tasted.


We next wanted to go to a coffee / dessert joint to chit-chat. Guess what, most of the cafes close at 10pm.

We managed to find one that closes at 1am and that's "High Society" at Pacific Plaza. I must add that we're not those snobbish atas people - just that this place was convenient for us.

Wah, looks so 'high society' ya...

AA looking so 'modelish'

There have very beautiful looking cupcakes and great tasting too.

ESMERALDA Ship @ VivoCity

12 August 2012

Off we went to see the Esmeralda ship docked at Vivocity.

We had some time to kill before the ship's opened to the public.

Guess what were we queuing for ?

Queuing for a ride in a kiddy train!

It was such a hot and humid day - see my hair plastered over my forehead ?

Choo !   Choo!

Eugene and the other boy in the same cabin were singing the Thomas song very loudly - well, it was loud because the boy's grandma and I were singing too ! lol!

ALL ABOARD !

Wah, I looked like I've got a big fat stomach protruding. It's the blouse which is elasticised at the bottom - well, ok, there is a slight chubby stomach :(

Esmeralda is a steel-hulled four-masted barquentine tall ship of the Chilean Navy, currently the second tallest and longest sailing ship in the world (wikipedia).

Happy 47th Birthday Singapore !

08 August 2012

As usual, all the kids have to wear the National Flag colours to school to celebrate Singapore's National Day which falls on the 09 August.

Art Class

04 August 2012

Seeing that Eugene have an interest in drawing, I had enrolled him in an art class at the Community Club near our place.

Wah, there're a lot of kids enrolled. Two teachers supervise the kids.

But for me it's ok lah. It's more for Eugene to do something he enjoys and also to socialise with the other children.


Waiting for the rest of the kids.....

The younger ones get to sit right in front.

His first drawing. Of cos the teacher helped a bit.
That's a monkey, by the way (I thought it was a frog, ha ha)

Road Drawing

01 August 2012

The kid said he wanted to draw and wanted some papers.

And he came up with this........

I was stunned. The drawing that I had seen him drew was the "sad cat" at the Children Festival.

I didn't expect him to staple the 2 pieces of paper together and draw this scene.

I think his perspective relating to the road was pretty good.

Hubby : so where's daddy ?

Eugene : you are in the car behind us. I'm grown up already and so I can drive mommy.

ha ha, that was a cute conversation.
