Little Nonya

Anyone addicted to this Singapore drama? Like me, I might add. This drama started when my in-laws were in town. My father in law had to recuperate at home so we spent everyday having dinner at home which leaves us much time to watch TV together. So, my MIL and me watched the very first episode and got addicted to it. Now that she is back in Surabya, she still would ask me how the story is unfolding. Hehehe!

It is still a wonder as to how we can get addicted to this drama. The plot is completely foolish, the setting unrealistic, the dialogues do not make sense, the actors and actresses are not good-looking and the leading lady absolutely cannot act. So, why are we addicted to this drama, I wonder yet again. But the fact remains that many are following this drama series. From our family gathering this New Year, I gathered that all my cousins and most of my Aunties are actually fans of this show. It goes to show that Singapore can just continue to produce crappy drama serials and still have fans following.

It is the last episode tonight but I have a dinner date so Ican only catch the show after Chinese New Year cos my cousin is recording it for me. :P

A New Year!

It has been a whirlwind of activities since October. I have not had a good rest since then. With my relatives sick, visitors coming in from Indonesia and all, preparing for all the festivities, a first birthday to plan and a wedding to attend, its been a crazy two months, hence the lack of posts. I am glad that it is all over.

Been wanting to do some educational things with C but have not had the time to do so. I thought we could do some flashcards, gym that sorta thing but I guess I need to wait a little while longer. C is such a curious baby...I guess all babies are. There are just infinite things to explore, discover and learn. The thing about C is, when he is willing to learn and pay attention, he does it so well but once he is not in the mood to learn, you can't force or cajole him no matter what. Hence, we have to be always prepared to practice with him when he is in one of his learning mood.

Now, he is able to wave bye2, shake hands, ask for things (tao), kiss bye, Gong Xi (bai2). Hehehe, all the things we make babies do.....its kinda funny. I leave this you with a recent picture we took for my cousin's wedding!
