i borrowed 《我爸爸》《我妈妈》 (2 books: My Dad, My Mum by Anthony Browne) from library for little bud.
she was... happy. as if her parents' faces printed in the books.
when we stepped out of library and went ahead for our lunch, she asked to take out the books from our bag and wanted to hold the two big books in her little hands while walking.
we taught her to learn the characters in the restaurant, while waiting.
then she frowned and asked, "where is 《我》?" (the book about "Me") "where is 《恒恒》?"
though with 3 positively, strongly, encouragement to me, we decided to drop the idea of tagging SC to visit 張曼娟小學堂, 薰衣草森林 and 阿里山, due to swine flu. i guess i just don't have the luck to join any of SC's training trip.
i can't afford to take any risk on little bud.she is prone to virus, any form of them.
i was teary when i opened my eyes at 4+ yesterday morning. i was losing little bud in my dream. that was, before i come to understand more on the seriousness of swine flu and alert level.
in reality, we, almost lost her...
on the other hand, office has put up the thermal scanner for all of us. we are now in yellow alert level. once reach orange level, we will be working alternate week.
looking at the bright side, we are joining Ade & C for Thumbelina:). i guess i must thank to those who unable to take up my offer of replacement.
This is purely an excuse to scrapbook. But I am more than happy to tell you the detail of the recipe if you are keen on this :). Similar recipe from mamabliss.
ShabbyPrincess.com is a stunning site to grab freebies and learn more about DSB. I was going through a technique called photo tinting:), which is easier way than how I used to leave a portion of a photo in colour. Go check out on other useful tutorials~! *thanks to Ruth once again on the new freebies* and CONGRATULATION to her being selected as Guest CT for FeiFei's Stuff! \^^/.
I am pleasantly with the public transport system here. If not because of SC and his tiredness of sharing part of my burden to rush back home for picking up Little Bud and cooking and what not, i will never consider to drive in this city. Why? Too high volume of traffic with lights and humps and zebra crossings; too many rules and regulations. by the way, too small parking lot for a not-so-skillful driver.
Anyway, Sc registered me, prepared me and dragged me for local driving theory test in mid March.
I was not confident. I was too tired. I failed.
I was relieved that he passed and not so relief to see his vision of having car in front of me. But I understand his need, as much as he knows my concerns. I guess this is the chemical part that is building between us. we did not fight for a car. he went ahead to car showrooms with his colleagues last week and excitedly told me his finding.
I remain 'un-attracted'.
I remain mild in my criticism.
Car... i can draw many matchboxes on paper and tell story to Little Bud.
Car... definitely extra expenses for us.
Car... means i can go back to KL conveniently?
hmm... travel with Little Bud to other part of Peninsular?
I wish to have a car now and re-visit Fraser's Hill with SC and our girl to enjoy an afternoon tea in the garden and staring at the dew-laden spider webs. I wish... i can go now. and tell little bud the pretty of our mother nature.
(shh... dont tell my boss im surfing now...) yeah, i wish to break away now.
