Before the year is OUT!

...with a bang!!!

well, might not be any specific 'bangs' for us this year but at least Beilou, hubs and I will be spending the night together, ushering into the brand new year 2010...the year of the Tiger... the first thing I did as soon as I came into the office this morning was clearing all those rubbish from my table and awaiting for more to come next year...

Until next year...

I wish U to have a .....
Sweetest Sunday,
Marvellous Monday,
Tasty Tuesday,
Wonderful Wednesday,
Thankful Thursday,
Friendly Friday,
Successful Saturday.
Have a great Year.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

~~ From a kid's point of view...

The other day while relaxing in our room, Beilou did some writing/drawing on the new examination pad I bought him earlier. Know what...he actually drew his own rendition of Eclipse of the Moon...yeah, I mean ECPLISE. Although not sure if it was the Annular, Total or Lunar Eclipse but from his simplest way of describing the drawing, we could definitely can see a moon is disappearing into the some black thing that I guess are clouds...not a really specific way I'm trying to put in words here, why not check out the drawing yourself...I bet you'll see something familiar as I did ^_^

Somewhat rewarding seeing the whole improvement Beilou went through so far...I can say that he is doing rather well...am so PROUD!!! And whats more lately he uttered a few new words that were rarely memtioned to him...

a) acorn (from the Xmas tree decorations)
b) skunk (smelly skunk)
c) tent (for camping as he descried)
d) cool (as in great...nice...etc)
e) "I thought..."
f) "what about..."
...and more that I can hardly recall for now...

You see...never a sorry to have sent Beilou to kindie too soon...
He'd learn so much and is still learning...
So proud...

...Happenings in the month of December...

12 Dec 2009
Been 'visiting' Ampang lately after our last stop to the Look-Out Point the other day... Came across this Eat-All-U-Can Korean BBQ Steamboat restaurant located at the Ampang Waterfront...and thought of giving it a try. Food there were not bad at all but way too pricey compares to Kepong BBQ joints...
13 Dec 2009
Another day at Midvalley with hubs & Beilou.... As usual...no miss for a few snapshots with the Christmas put-ups. Beilou was so eager to snap with the good o'acorn...when he was looking at it & said to me, "Mi, acorn..." Good boy...good to know that he knows that's an acorn...

After a nice afternoon stroll at Midvalley, with hubs' wise suggestion, we stopped by Nong & Jimmy Thai BBQ Restaurant located somewhere in Ampang/Cheras...for the 1st time... Their specialties...BBQ seafoods of huge crabs, squid (sotong putih), fishes and seafood tomyam soup. The bill came up to about 100+ with 2 huge BBQ crabs, 1-whole BBQ squid, tomyam soup, mix vege and Glass Chicken Feet...well done... We enjoyed our crabs so well...happy for Beilou cos he likes it too ^_^

17~18 Dec 2009
Sobei sis' birthday on the 18th... promised her that we celebrate together this year so on the eve we went for a drink at Finnegan's Hartamas thinking of splurging into Beamish but they ran out of it (sh*t)...and later to Donk's working place aka Friend's Pub for our second round. Thoughts of bringing her to a 'new' place to see some 'new' stuffs, a great choice made so well. I bet she'd really 'saw' the 'new' stuffs this time. Haha! I really hope that she'd enjoy the nite as well as I did and I'm glad as she said she did... Oh, well...until next year & the years to come...Happy Birthday, Sis! And thanks for everything...and I mean really 'everything'.

Xmas Eve ~ 24 Dec 2009
Christmas ~ celebrated with pressies exchanging with the peeps at 'haus' on the Eve. The nite was...eventually warm & hilarious... The kids enjoyed it the most...to have unwrapped so much of pressies... See the BIG one...? Beilou got it and guess what...it was just another box of mandarin oranges in it...I guess that spells ~ FUN...duuuh...

On Chrismas Day...we stayed home for the day and went to N&J for dinner again... With our high hopes we went there for our favs ~ BBQ crabs & sotong...they were all sold out...luck was not on our side this time... So there we were, eating without our favs... We will sure be going back soon...soon...

On the nite of Boxing Day...we went to the ever famous Jln. Alor for our supper. The oyster cake (oh-jien) was the nicest ever so as the pork noodle...

Dad's birthday on 27th...just a simple McD Prosperity Beef Burger did the job...heheheh... We could have celebrate Dad's birthday today but sis was away relaxing far, far away...well, what to do and so we made a deal that the celebration be postponed to later. Wouldn't be long, promised.

Cuuuuuuuuuuuute....

We were visting...

Not Again?!
Yup...yes, indeed, again, we visited The Historical City of Melaka...considered this place our FAVS, to me, hubs & Beilou too... Our must-haves Chicken Rice, WanTanMee & Popiahs...hence I'm gonna officially declare this, from this day on, as our Chic-Wan-Pops Get-a-way...
28th Nov. 2009...marked as our 11th Wedding Anniversary, ahem...(shy) Proud to say, am lucky to have come so far...having hubs along these years made me feels comfortable...I won't forget that together, both of us, 1st visited Melaka back in those days.
I know sometimes words can't express much what's more when I'm not clever at doing it... that was why I've always thought a short trip away from 'everything' and I mean really 'everything' will never be a regret...
This time round, we got ourselves a room at one of our favorite hotel, Mimosa...the hotel is so near to the shop selling that WanTanMee that we would never miss...and it is also near to the popiah stall too...can kill many birds with 1 stone if staying at this hotel cos it is also located nearby to Jonker Walk...
For all of our visits to Melaka...we would definitely be having :- Chic rice for lunch Popiahs for snack/tea-time/supper Wan Tan Mee for dinner Never a miss...
And as for the next day, after leaving Melaka...we would drop by Seremban for grilled crabs. Nice and big crabs this time...we only had 1 crab and that merely weighs 1kg... you can imagine how huge was it... Until our next visit...not long, as I'm planning to go back by end of December for some CNY shoppings... Wahahaha!!!

。。。 天 黑 黑， 別 下 雨。。。

The Sky...caught on my Mju yesterday.
The dark clouds rushing in looked extremely scary...I was worry so I quickly left the office thinking that a heavy downpour would take place. Well...the pour didn't make it here after all. The dark clouds were only 'visiting'... Hm, hm, hm... I guess sometimes we do need to be visiting, be it people or places rather than awaiting to be visited...

^^ piku~piku ^^

Progressing...

So, it's the month of December...meaning the year 2009 be ending, pretty soon... On the 20th Nov...I went to meet with Teacher Jacinta for the final Parents/Teachers' Day at Beilou's kindie...as usual, Teacher Cinta would let me take home all of Beilou's 'masterpiece' i.e. artwork etc which Beilou did for the whole semester...only different this time was, this would be the last time for me to meet & talk with Teacher Cinta regarding Beilou's kindie progresses as the semester be ending soon...
Teacher Cinta even mentioned that she, too, felt sad to let the kids go although they'll be around but not in her class anymore starting next year...

23rd Nov ~ Well, this was the time when everybody can have their great time together with their schoolmates as it's the school excursion day! They went for a half a day Aerospace Tour ~ TUDM to see the aeroplanes...
It was their 1st & the last for this year though...
We reached the kindie at 7.45am as required but they only started off their journey at 9am... I bet they have enjoyed the trip so much only that they were all so worn-out & Teacher Cinta even told that Beilou fell asleep on the bus during their way back...hehehe

One of Beilou's classmate, Alis celebrated her 4th birthday at kindie on 24th Nov...she got them each a party pack & of course all those tit-bits goes to me... I had Beilou bringing Alis a cute & nicely wrapped present which I've bought earlier (Minnie Mouse blankie)

Thanks a bunch, girl...and Happy Birthday to you!

25th Nov. 2009 Finale ~ End of the school semester 2009
What else but class party!!!!! As I saw Teacher Jacinta on this morning, I, without hesitation, requested to snap a pix of Teacher Jacinta with Beilou... this one is definitely gonna be a keeper as I want Beilou to remember Teacher Jacinta Das as his 1st teacher and a great teacher too... I'm so happy to have her as Beilou's class teacher and am so grateful that I'm thanking her so much for her precious time spent with Beilou...

Should auld acquantance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquantance be forgot,
And days o' Auld Lang Syne
For Auld Lang Syne, my dear,
For Auld Lang Syne,
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For Auld Lang Syne...
