I spent Monday and Tuesday with my family; mostly my parents. On Monday the family and Ah Ma had porridge lunch buffet at the convention centre. Then we went to watch 'Seven Swords'. As the credits were rolling at the end of the show, we saw the name of this Eurasian actor who has a brother also acting in Hollywood, and who has the same first and last names as a world-famous photographer from Singapore, but we did not see him at all. So Mummy and I were musing when was it we blinked and missed him. Turned out he got snipped off. We realised that when we saw the character he was supposed to play, but that character did not appear at all. In trying to figure out if Ah Ma understood the film I asked her if the show was nice and she said yes. I probed further to make sure she REALLY understood the show and asked who she saw in the movie. Mummy and I burst out laughing on the spot when she said 'Liu De Hua'. Now, there is 'Li Ming' in the show, but no 'Liu De Hua' anywhere in sight. We decided Ah Ma just called every actor 'Liu De Hua' because that is the one she knows best. Soometimes I really wished I can be like her, simplify everything in life and only remember to laugh. Blink and everything is over. No need to feel sad or lost. Live in the moment, literally. Sweet old lady.


Daddy trying to act cute on the kiddy ride. Haha.


A nostalgic shot for Ah Ma.

On Tuesday, deciding to watch the fireworks by the bay at night, my parents suggested going to the Marina area. So we drove there and parked at one of the neighbouring hotels. And then we walked, seeing it was only early evening and plenty of time before the fireworks start. We started the the mall after dinner at its foodcourt. Then we walked to Chinatown. For dessert. Yes you read correctly. The three of us, my parents and I, walked from the Marina area to Chinatown. And after dessert, we walked back to the quay to catch the display. We walked alot yesterday.

Haha. But it was quite fun actually. I asked Mummy what if I got lost in the crowd. She told me to stay put and they will come looking for me. Exactly the words she said to me when I was young. But I know now she will not be looking for me. She will just expect me to make my own way home. Which was exactly what I wailed back to her. Hahahaha... There were so many people out at the same time. I almost felt stifled. Really do not like the feeling. Told Mummy let us not come out again on a public holiday, with the rest of Singapore.

More pictures on that later.
