Fire

I feel bad every time I drive pass the road where the furniture shop was burnt down. After all we have visited the place no less than five times and its still technically the closest furniture street to my house. Insurance company claims that every few years there will be accident in furniture shops in which out-of-fashion furniture will get burnt. Is the world really as dark as it seems on TV?

Humidifier

Yeah! A Humidifier! HY is happy because it’s something we been talking about for a long time, and that he get to choose it himself. Not to mention it is green, it is an apple shape and it is cute. SA is happy because it might actually help the kid’s nose issue. I am happy because it is not expensive. The happiest of all is however, the fish. Look at him! He finally gets his water!

Dancing

I have little knowledge on whether girls naturally love dancing, but HX definitely is one of them. I am surprised at the moves she pick up whilst watching youtube. Look, she is trying to duplicate the moves made by the previous girl who is playing this dance machine.

Clock

Should we be considering this a scary event or pure bad luck or the consequences of lower quality product for lower price? The clock in my house kept breaking down. There are five clock (wall and desk) broke down over the last twelve months and each one of them couldn’t last more than half a year. Nonetheless a replacement is needed and here are some of the candidates. Look good at reasonable price but can they last?

Sunway- Parenthood

We visited Sunway newly established Parenthood. The initial intention is to visit the playground, however, it is simply too crowded that we decide to just wander around outside the playground. It might look good but I really do wonder how long this concept/business can survive in Malaysia. My bet is no more than 3 years.

School Sports Day 2016

HY is so excited for this School Sports Day even days before the actual event. He absolutely enjoy the actual event and also non-stop talk (and brag) about it after the event. He is fortunate that he won a Gold Medal on that day. I couldn't imagine how disappointed he will be if he didn't win. In the meantime, his mummy won first and his dad (ie myself) won second in parents competition. Everybody is a winner and everybody is happy.

3rd Run of the year

Today marks my third major run this year. Its a 5km plus run but I do carry a flag in the run so its bit different. I also struggle quite a bit but I like to blame it on the flag this round. :)

Standard Chart Run 2016

2016- 10km run is concluded. My time this round is 1 hour 18 minutes. That's a full 3 minutes more than the run I had 2 years ago. Perhaps age is catching up, or it could be lack of practises. After all I was kind of in a good form two years ago with plenty of in house practises. The only way I can find out is to practise plenty and go for the same run in 2017.

Policeman

Papa,' Look Hong Yi. There's a police car in front. What is the policeman doing in the restaurant?' HY,' Catching bad guys lo.' Papa,' No no no. They are here for a meal.' HY,' If they are here for a meal, why are they not driving their own family car?' Papa,' ..... you are right... they are here to catch bad guys.'

Hello Passat

Finally own my first ever brand new car. Drove my first ever tiptronic vehicle, and in the process I took up my first ever car loan too. A liability that no one wish to have but simply inevitable in today's market place.

Run

First major run in 2 years, but this 10km has proven to be really difficult. I am not sure whether it is the difficult terrain or lack of practice, but I absolutely struggle through out the run. Luckily there is still a medal to keep me happy at the end of it.
