Card Design2

Finished the church invitation card and e-invitation card designs for Yvonne!
Frankly speaking, hers was not easy as she is a typical perfectionist... Much as I know her, she is someone who likes to stands out so I need to give her something different... something more into sophisticated and glamorous.

Inspirations & ideas:
E-invite to be more sophisticated with a tint of romance
Church invitation to be more soft (with white & pink) with a tint of sweetness

I will appreciate it.

Zoo Excursion - March 2010

This will be Reyes's third yearly visit (since 2008) to the Zoo!

We plan to bring him to the Zoo on an annual basis (since its free), to introduce him to the real animals and how they really look like (i.e how big, how tall, how smelly). Anyway he was the one who kinda requested for the trip, asking me one day "Mama, bring me to see lion & tiger!"

I prepared and brought along sandwiches to quest our hunger as its too expensive & much of a hassle to settle our lunch in the Zoo. Both the boys are happy & satisfied with their burgers and packet milk, even though I craved for iced tea & ice-cream in that scorching hot weather!

The funniest part of the day will be Reyes feeding his favorite animal - Giraffe!
We paid $5 for 5 pathetic slides of carrot - was it expensive or not! When the giraffe stick out its tongue to grab its carrot, it touched Reyes's hand and he immediately withdrew his hand and went "eeeeek...!", and cleaned his hands on daddy's tee shirt. I managed to videotaped down and will load it up after I convert the file - Stay tuned!

Everything went smoothly till the day is about to end where we got caught in the heavy downpour! We were just that close to getting into our car! Damn!

As Reyes grows older, our zoo excursion became more educational and meaningful. At least he can recognize the many different kind of animals and we can relate their behaviour to him. He like the kangaroo and was eagerly waiting for them to hop around but his patience didnt pay out - too bad, guess they hate the weather as well!

God-daughter, Keira

How time flies..... it has been nearly 10mths since BFF flew off to the States @ MB. Her darling princess Keira is reaching 9 months old now and I haven't got a chance to carry her! Haven't seen her via webcam for awhile too, as everytime when we skyped shes already asleep while Reyes KorKor is awake!

Isn't she a doll???

Xayier's first birthday

07.03.2010

It's dear Xayier-boy's 1st year birthday cum house-warming! How wonderful!!

They ordered a whopping 3kg chocolate fudge cake from Jane's cake station (off Jalan Kayu) and it was expectedly yummy! Hahaha, those who can tried the cake before will be able to apprehend that. Xayier can now walk on his way with minimal support on & off but I think he has achieved the milestone quite early already - good job! Keep it up! Sometimes he will just lean towards Reyes for support as hes still learning to walk, but my darling boy doesn't quite know how to react will attempt to push him away. BUt after I explained to Reyes to lend Xayier a helping hand, he will hold Xayier by the hand and walk around together. But the walking pace is a worry, as my son doesn't walk!

He RUNS!

Chillout @ IndoChine

My 28th birthday

Opps, here I am. Back to updating my blog. Have been repeatedly being reminded by friends to do the updating and I've finally found some time to do so!

See ... time is really not ENOUGH for me!!

Celebration with my GE/VG colleagues @ Chinatown KTV

We had planned for a KTV outing in celebration for Elim's belated birthday but didn't expect a surprise for mine instead. Yap introduced this frigging cheap KTV @Chinatown but kinda "old" though. It was only about S$12 per pax from 7pm - 12midnight, with FREE FLOW drinks and 1 chicken soup! Ok we seriously pondered why they will serve chicken soup instead of other soup/food, but its still a unanswered doubt. Haha, anyone can tell me why?!

The tiara was a total surprise by Uncle Philip! Not the typical elegant tiara but it's funky enough!

Our funky group photo.

What funny expressions Elim got there while trying to open her present (a white Baby-G watch), and all caught on camera! Gotcha!

Celebration with my family @ Sun with Moon - Wheelock Place

After contemplating with what kind of cuisine for my birthday, I decided on Japanese!
Sun with Moon restaurant was recommended by a few friends & colleagues, so I shortlisted it for my birthday dinner since I haven't tried their food before. Personally, I was quite disappointed with the quality of food for that particular "more than average" price. The most enjoyable dish I enjoyed will be the chocolate crepe cake, which was quite good. The rest of the food was priced way too high for that kind of quality, especially the plate of salmon sashimi we ordered - 5 slides cost us S$15 and I seriously cannot differentiate the differences between Sakae's and Sun with Moon's.

But nevertheless I totally enjoyed my evening out with my hubby (who hates to go down town) and my darling boy! Its the company that counts!!!
