a peek into my life: snippets of joy

Daddy and I have never been to Potong Pasir.  So we decided heading down to Potong Pasir to take a look . I took a photo of Zann at the billboard with Mr Chiam’s smiling face, before it was gone.

Daddy said there might be no more Potong Pasir in the next election. Most probably it will be absorbed into TPY/Bishan or some other big PAP GRC.

Before walking over to blk 108, where meet-the people session was held, we saw SPP. I finally got a chance to see Mr Chiam, from far away. He looked so weak. But that didn’t stop him from greeting and thanking the Potong Pasir residents.

I teared.

I still remember what he has said during the election interview.

“When there is life, there is hope. When there is hope, there is change. “

This man is indeed an inspiration to every Singaporean, for his name to be remembered.

Do you believe in luck? Lucky people, unlucky people, fortunate times, unfortunate times?

I think some people are more naturally fortunate than others, who are more inclined toward good things happening than bad. Say, like someone who never experience hard times, or even someone who has it easy in her comfort zone, having family support.

When I was young, I wish I was a boy. I wish I had better luck to have a complete family.

Me: Are you free  to have a lunch with me tmlw ?

My mum: Why? What occasion?

Me: Mother’s Day and my birthday.

My mum: Oh, when is your birthday ?

I was so disheartened to hear this. She told me she can only rem my bro’s because he’s different. Yea…we are different indeed. He’s her only son. Some things never change still even after so many years.

She told me she would call me if she has the time. Whatever.

I put down the cake at her place and left with Zann.

One young mummy who always curse and swear at her own mother inside FB, said some singaporeans are ungrateful to the core, turning against the kind government who fed and clothed us all these years. Ironic isn’t it ?

So be it.

One more day to the election.

Will Singapore has her luck not becoming 87-0 after 7 May ?

The flowers are pretty. I am envious. The plant is Mum’s.

While ours looks like this :

I watered twice a day, yet my plant is dying. WHY ?

新年终于来临了。这么快，一转眼，就是兔的年了。

在此恭祝大家

新年快乐

恭喜发财

万事如意

身体健康

岁岁平安

大吉大利

兔年行大运 !

喂喂不要怕，
你是好娃娃，
自己跌倒自己爬，
你看山上，
为你开满红花，
你要是好娃娃，
要自己跌倒自己爬。

喂喂不要怕，
我是好娃娃，
自己跌倒自己爬，
虽然人小，
我们志气大，
我们是好娃娃，
要自己跌倒自己爬。

喂喂不要怕，
你是好娃娃，
自己跌倒自己爬，
吃苦耐劳，
什么都不怕，
你们是好娃娃，
要自己跌倒自己爬。

喂喂不要怕，
你是好娃娃，
自己跌倒自己爬，
吃苦耐劳，
什么都不怕，
你们是好娃娃，
要自己跌倒自己爬。

小时候唱过的儿童歌曲, 谁还记得？

当我们还是娃娃，在学走路的过程时总是跌倒，我们都会自己爬起来。但长大后的我们，似乎渐渐已忘记这个简单的动作了。

I knew this cake house since 2001, and has been following them since. It’s a traditional confectionery which only cash are accepted.

I love their signature pineapple tarts. A must buy for me and my family. At $20, it may be a bit pricey, but it’s well worth. I keep telling my friends to buy from them cos their pineapple tarts are those types which will melt in the mouth.

I will also start my own pineapple baking soon.  I told Daddy I’m going to make more tubs to give away this year.
