Wedding Anniversary - Part One.

I have not been writing for quite a while. Either my lazy bones had grown bigger or I had been very busy. I think it should be the latter. ;-p

Although the frustrations at work and little episode of food poisoning were not documented, there are some events I will definitely want to record down.

It has been two years since we exchanged our Wedding vows. 7th of September 2008 was the day we solemnised at Zhou's Kitchen, in Far East Square. This year, we celebrated with dim sum brunch at Meritus Mandarin Pine Court Restaurant. Not the usual candlelight dinner which couples may choose. :-p Nevertheless, it was wonderful.

We had century egg porridge to kick off our brunch.

The porridge must had been one of the most delicious that I have tried, besides the Tiong Bahru market porridge. Not too salty or bland, not too watery or gooey. It tasted perfect. Other pipping hot dishes followed...

We spent a while outside the 35th floor restaurant, enjoying the city view and capturing the unique lightings at that level in our brand new camera.

Thank you dear wife, I am truly touched by your dedication. And I look forward to our exciting new hope next month. :-) Happy Anniversary!

P.S. Our first 自拍 using the SLR. Surprisingly easy despite the weight. :p

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too...

Saturday Afternoon Routine.

I just got back from the Saturday tuition sessions. It has been almost 5 months since I started.I have two classes of primary school children, P4 and P3, taking Maths and Science, and English, respectively. It has become a Saturday routine. A energy-draining activity. It is somehow different from giving volunteering tuition. When you are paid, the responsibility seems greater. And if you ain't doing a good job, someone else is readily available to take up yours. The fact that I really need that money, I have to put in more effort. Some students have left, and some have joined. I'm not sure whether they left cuz they think I ain't good 'nuff for them. But there are some who seem really happy and appreciative to have me around. On my first lesson, I set the ground rules for my classes. I told them my expectations on their behavior. On boy, how naive I was. They are only nine or ten, they don't understand the significance of those rules. After a couple of lessons with ...

Just In Time, For Bertrand's Big Day!

Twelve months ago, our baby boy came into this world. It was the beginning of our new journey. The delivery suite was cold. I held the camera tightly, waiting for the moment. The gynecologist came in and told me to put it away. "No time for this." My job was to urge my wife to push hard. "One and two and three..." And then, came his first cry. "Where's my camera? Where's my camera?" I scrambled for it. First was the cutting of umbilical cord, then the body check, the weighing scale, and Bertrand was in Mummy's arms for the first time. Before I knew, it had begun - my journey as a father and Bertrand's dedicated photographer. From the start, Bertrand is a natural when it comes to posing for the camera. He would look at the camera. The boy is cheerful. It was easy to capture him smiling. Not wanting to miss out any of it, I had the camera by my side, day and night. The first time he smiled, mumbled, laughed out loud, flipped over, crawle...
