what? Today is "Eat with your family day"? R u kidding me?!?!

one of the thing that i've always wanted to do is to go on a photo trip.. a solo photo trip in fact.. but with the birth of Naomi, its not easy to be away both physically & financially.
Perhaps i'll eventually do it when Naomi's slightly older...

climb baby climb

Naomi proudly catches my attention telling me that she can climb now!

reaching out for almost everything!

some photos taken over the long weekend..

Wanted to bring Naomi to Flipside at Esplanade as we heard some pretty good review on it but unfortunately it rained when we reached there.. so bo pian but to let Naomi have some playgnd time at Marina Sq instead..

Naomi loves this playgnd.. or rather she loves sitting in the driver seat of this car and she can basically sit there for the entire playtime without touching the rest of the stuff.. and yes, we had a hard time telling her that its time to go home..

Drove pass Lower Seletar to let Naomi to take a look at the monkeys.. and we were lucky to spot quite a couple of monkeys as the rain had ceased and i guess they were out sourcing for food! Naomi was pretty excited at seeing the monkeys and even said yes when I asked her whether she wants to bring one home!

grow baby grow

seriously, where have all the time gone to???

GOD will bless & protect Naomi.

Currently doing my special term while the full timers are taking a break. Its more relaxed in the sense that we are only required to take 1 module and it alternates between wed and mon+wed.. plus the fact that we are required to take a non engineering module so away with the maths!!! Chose Labour Law and so far i find it pretty interesting.. Prof was very engaging and made all of us participate like nobody biz as participation marks takes up 20% of the module score! So far so good.. been pretty discipline in doing after lessons read up... hope to eventually score well to up my grades a little..

As a father, i really really find it so hard to accept the fact that my little baby gal is going to childcare soon. next yr to be exact... On the pro side, she gets to interact, pick up new skills and learn to socialize with other kids but..... but i thought kids are supposed to just have fun and have a happy childhood before the educational system kicks in... yes, thats my version for my kid... to have a happy childhood... but who am i to judge that Naomi will not have a happy childhood by going to childcare...

damn... i'm still finding it so hard to let go of my baby gal... (images of her being bullied by teachers/kiddos comes into my mind...) Colleague told me to look at the positive side... of her making new frds and learning new stuff and in fact she might enjoy it so much that she dun wanna go home. haiz...
perhaps i need to learn to let go...

If thing remains unchanged... we will be making the registration next month and Naomi will start Nursery1 next yr.. and i will officially be eating grass very soon.. not kidding.

cheers!!!!

i believe that the one thing abt not having a regular & active exercise regime is that one will fall sick easily..
With that said, I was on MC yest for sore throat + flu... feeling much better today and will ride the sickness away tonite...

Trying to put my jogging on hold for the time being till my knee naturally heals... hope it heals soon.. dun wanna be round again...

Cycling tonight after a 2-3 weeks of break... Gonna be a real slow and leisure ride before i resume with my sat routine ride.. WooooHooooooooo..... Pls don't rain huh...

I really don't like it when people try to be sneaky with me...
Seriously, i don't see myself being a threat at least in THAT aspect...
so lets be clean... be fair... don't stood so low....

This was my 2nd trip to HK where this time round, we really explore and walked A LOT!!!
Its like walking around Orchard twice a day.. The amt of walking can be pretty punishing...
But i have to say that I pretty much enjoy going to stores/shops which sells local/interesting stuff which Singapore doesn't have... I absolutely love HK's tea cafes which can be found at almost every street... Loved their traditional dim sum, egg tarts, pork bun, maggi mee with luncheon meat... i can go on n on.....

Was thinking whether to bring my MarkII but i am glad that i bought my LX3 instead.. haha... The walking is enough to kill me so with the MarkII, I think i'm gonna leave it in the hotel rm most of the time... but with the LX3, its so so portable to just sling it round my neck wherever i go... but well.. pic quality wise, photos from the LX3 is still pretty awesome! :)

Back to work today... almost couldn't wake up... and classes starts tonite!!! argh!!!!

back from HK!!!

and we miss Naomi soooooooooooooooo much!!!

my 'angel'. :)

took abt 1.5 week off from jogging due to my exams/revision commitment and went back to jogging on Tues and for whatever reasons, my right knee feel pretty jellyish/aching ever since then... 1st time feeling this way so no choice but to stop jogging and rest my knee for the time being... damn... my one and only way to cut weight... gotta look for alternative exercise for the time being else i will balloon again...

oh.. and we're flying off to HK this fri and back on the 14th. Gonna miss Naomi very very much..Thank GOD for technology! Thank GOD for SKYPE!

Naomi, 2 yrs old and you will be joining us for holidays ok. :)

some photos taken from the visit to my parent's place yesterday. :)

like a boss!!!

shaky...

my lil babe is 18 months old!

had my worst paper yest... in fact the worst paper of my time in NUS so far...
went into the exam hall after doing 4 x past yr papers and there were no similarities with the papers that the prof set! The papers were beyond tough... had to do 4 qns and only managed to complete 2/4..
praying for moderation~

taking a short break from revision as i am typing this post... sch seems amazingly quiet today.. usually it shld be busking with students doing bz revisions.. unless everyone have completed their exams except me..

Sat shld not be spent in sch.. missing the time that i shld be spending with family...

typing on samsung tablet sucks as well.

yest left sch at abt 12 midnite.. and still feeling very unprepared for HF.. It doesn't help that at one glance, there isn't any similarities in the qns for 4 x past yr papers...

love my gal soooooooooooo much~~

today was in sch till 10+pm again... tired.. and realized that i get pretty confused over doing the mid terms and past yr papers... argh.. this is not good...

... anyway its real nice to be home and seeing my little Naomi sleeping sounding in her cot...
really hope to be able to spend more time to bond with her...
