Merry Valentine's Day

It’s Valentine’s Day today, the 8th day of lunar new year. Merry Valentine’s Day to everyone.

The 2nd day of lunar new year was a busy day for all of us. Dressing up and ready to conquer the places one by one. 1st was to Grandpa house, then to Great Grand Mother’s house (tho she is long long long no longer ard but some relatives still stays there), then to 2nd Uncle’s place. We were all dead tired. I sort of forgot what I did in the evening but guess I was too tired to even remember a single thing. All I know is that I bing eat and sleep and sleep and bing eat again infront of the TV, lying on the sofa while msning too.

3rd day, Emily and Alston came over to my house and woooh my dear Alston! He sure is an adorable boy! He looks smart in his shirt and jeans, then he happily shook my hand and walked in. I brought him to say hi to my family. And he started roaming around…. playing…..and felt so at ease.

My ex neighbor came over too, bring along their granddaughter and Alston keep calling her “Di Di”. The “young couple” went to see the tortoise together and we have to correct Alston a couple to times its “Mei Mei, not Di Di”.

Then Emily got him changed into wearing something more casual and we started playing with the lap top together. Emily said I should open up a window word and enlarge font size to 48 and he can play already, and so I did! He started keying in each alphabet one by one. Then he will get me to clear the screen while he retypes again and this action kind of err…….repeated a couple of times.

Ahem! Now I am called Auntie Ling as what Alston will address me as. And I am so f-king high whenever I hear him shouting “Auntie Ling Ah!”

And when I disturbed him by clearing his screen when he is still typing away, he will say “Haiz…You huh…” then smile and retype again. Then I was hanging the wet clothing on the bamboo pole. He came over and held one end of the pole with his tiny hands. I coaxed him and assure its fine to rest it on the table. Then he went over the pile of spin dried clothes and randomly picked some for me to hang.

We worked like partners in crime. Me, telling him, “Towel! Towel! Neh, over here!” and him, trying to make sense of how a towel looks like. Then he helped to get me the pegs and I have to tell him “Alston! Red one, red one! Neh……..”. Then he will repeat “Red one ah?” and I will have to assure him “Ah!”



Within just a day, we became good friend. While I am msning away, he climbed up the sofa and snuggled close to me. Then he took my sister’s Bumpy (a toy lamb) to play ard with, then drinking his milk and took a cushion and lie flat on the sofa next to his mum and took a nap.



In the evening, we dropped him and his mum at Jurong Point and off we went to catch a movie CJ7.

A wonderful boy with proper good bringing up. I wish to spend more time with him though. Hopes he will not forget all about Auntie Ling. :)

Another day passed. Sunday was supposed to meet up Ginnise, Daniel or Mdm Cheong and her hubby. Again, a greedy me, trying to fix meeting two different groups in one day and I finally got my warning. LOL!

I always have the habit of fixing different groups of friends into one gathering so that I need not go out so often in different days. Imagine if you have 5 groups who wanna meet up, and your Monday to Friday maybe packed to meet up all the groups! So if it allows, I would rather meet up, a few groups sharing the same activities, in one day.

I’m still so dead tired. The salonpas are pasted firmly from lower back to upper back. Don’t know why been having blur vision lately and the damn cough is still persistently harassing me (though I cough little as before). Guess I need an eye check soon. :)
