Halloween Party

Hong Yi's first Halloween Party at the Little Gym. We dress as a skeleton man, Japanese school Girl, Doremon and Strawberry Girl. There are a lot more scary monsters dresses than cute outfit. Guess what happen if you mix them both. (Look at that really scary girl in the next photo)

Birthday Wishlist 2014

Birthday soon again eh? I don't look forward for it so very much and its not surprisingly. I couldn't think of what presents I should buy for myself, after last year's present that I bought for myself, that is a little waste of money. Pretty hard to imagine that just a few years ago I have a long list of wish list and now that I could not think of any. I guess I wouldn't mind having a mi-band, although its not available in Malaysia just yet. Sports Arm Wallet perhaps. What else? Let me think about it and continue this blog later.

Classic Old Movies

Some old movies deserved to be re-watch or to watch it for the very first time even though its a really old movie. Here are some of them:-

- Jarhead. I always like good war movies.
- The Verdict. A 1982 classic by Paul Newmon. (Reminds me of ,The Rainmaker')
- Momento. Wow! This is really good.
- Leon. Another classic. Nathalie Portman is so little & cute.
- Girl with the dragon tattoo. Its so good I hope they make Part II of the trilogy.

Movies with difficult to understand ending-
- Donnie Darko. Now this is interesting.
- The Ninth Gate.

Standard Chartered Run 2014

After only finishing the 10km run in 76 and a half minute last year (versus target of 75 minutes), I have a full year to think about it and how I plan to achieve the target this year. Despite the mild sickness and lack of practices, I insist to participate this year run. Final results - 74 and a half minute. Yes. Mission accomplished. My second half seems to be slightly faster than the first half, due to myself pushing for the target.

Kindergarden School Hunt

Alas... Its time to search for kindergarden school for Hong Yi. Names like Beaconhouse, Fungates, Q-Dees, Montessori; names that I have never heard of; are now options that need to be consider- all equipped with pros and cons I must say. I have couple of weeks to do some research before detail analysis.

What is the most important factor? Location? Convenience? Education material/method? Environment? Answer: All of the above. (Gee.. this is a difficult business to please your customers..)

And the winner is ... (drum rolls...)

Montessori of course...

Port Dickson

The thought of going for a family trip with two kids has always been scary to me. The recent three days two nights trip to Port Dickson is as tiring as expected, however, not as scary as initially feared. Everything is worthwhile when the kids enjoy themselves.
