The Pacific – Part 2

Posted on 19 Dec 201014 Mar 2018   by CY

On the other hand; there were elements in The Pacific that didn’t work for me. One of the strongest aspects of BoB was that it centered its attention squarely on a small group of men who fought in a one-year

Getting to know myself

Posted on 14 Dec 201014 Dec 2010   by Ling

*Mommy has been trying to teach me more about my little body. She likes to ask me “where’s this and that” to reinforce my memory. I still think that my belly button is at my chest region. And I love

Hannah’s first tooth brush

Posted on 13 Dec 2010   by Ling

As far as teeth development is concerned, Hannah is really lagging behind the average baby. At 18 months, she has a total of 6 full teeth and 4 in the midst of sprouting. In any case, we have made the

The Karate Kid

Posted on 7 Dec 201014 Mar 2018   by CY

The Karate Kid (2010) – on rental. I wasn’t much of a film buff 25 years ago in the 80’s, what with the fact that TV access at our old family home in Sembawang was strictly controlled by parents, and

Shake your bum bum

Posted on 4 Dec 20104 Dec 2010   by Ling

Morning Byes and Evening Greets

Posted on 3 Dec 20103 Dec 2010   by CY
