Children's day balloon



We started making balloon for Rui’s classmate after 9pm at night after dinner and arcade game at Jurong Point. I promised the kids to make for them during the excursion. The kids get to choose the design and colour they wanted.

14 of the balloons were bears. The kids really know how to choose tough to make stuff! Lucky still quit a lot of boys choose sword, 11 I think, which is easy peessy to make. In all, Jimma and I made 43 balloon for the classmates and his teacher. We two stayed up to 2am to complete everything, finished with name tagging. I hope the kiddos like it.

Happy children’s day….

Gear up for SA2 guys…

New baby fishes


The pregnant mummy guppies gave birth to so many babies. At least 20, lost count......

Yeh! Yeh! The long wait is over finally. We were all doubting and thinking if we miss any babies before this. Are they eaten up by mummies? Are the fishes actually pregnant? Now, is a relieve because all the above answered and best of all, I need not to feed the mummies like worm... NO KILLING!! Shan Chai, Shan Chai....

Who was excited? Is the Mum, Dad and the maid..... Ha Ha! Not the kiddos.... En just say 'baby pish..' Rui enjoy his new Pokemon book better than those helpless fishes! Rong enjoy disturbing En... Fish, too trivial, not my cup of tea...

I do not allow them to catch the fish but I did tried to move the labouring mummy into the hatching tank but could not manage as there are obstacles very where in the tank, remember the two new plants..... Just wish that the obstacle will provide sufficient protection for the newly born babies.

I feel overwhelm by the amount of fishes I have now. So many babies to take care! What a seen when they are all big!! Plus 8 more from Leoga! WOW!! STOP any new addition.

Forgot to mention, just added one suckle fish @$1.50 to each tank too.

Photo did not turn out nice. All greenish, focus also out, taken at night. Don't know why. Try again with natural light tomorrow. Just that need to do it early in the morning before going on course. Above is the better one taken during trhe DAY.

Rui helping hand

Today on the way from Rui centre, he told me the story of his praised by the principle in school. I was just chatting with him about seeing his school principle with Mr Tharman Shanmugaratnam, the Finance Minister in the Community Club on Sunday.

He suddenly remembered to tell me about his help to a lower primary girl when he saw her crying and holding on to her grandmother. He tried to talk her out and consoled her but yields no result. He then decided to seek help from a teacher. The teacher take over the issue from there.

During the assembly, the principle actually praises him in front of the whole school on his action. He was over the moon. The walk from centre was like floating.... Way to go, Rui. Mummy is proud of you. You are always caring and willing to help.

As I am writing in front of the home PC, the lily smell from last Friday arrangement fill up the living room. The lilies are also happy for us. :-)

You can Rui, you can. Keep it up...

Fish tank plant

Bought two more plants today to add into the collection. It was bought from Far East Flora cost $2 each. They are very healthy now. In my hand, how long can they stay healthy is still unknown. So I need to experiment on this few residence first before adding some more plant.

My sun light at home my not be sufficient for the plant. Should I get the fluorescent light and CO2 supply? So into it or not?

The plant near the window is growing well. In the living room mah, may not be able to sustain....

Picture coming soon...
