I decided I am NOT going to explore Yishun ALONE anytime in the near future.

‘Coz.. I nearly got lost during my trip yesterday LOL

Was supposed to reach Rebecca’s place at 3. But.. knowing me, after dilly-dallying, I expected myself to reach by 3.30. But hor.. I boarded the wrong 812 from Yishun interchange! *facepalm* The beauty of having an iPhone, is I can check where the block is on the map. When I saw that the bus turned the other direction, the bus stop that I supposedly was to alight at, turned out to be a school, I knew I was on the wrong bus lah..

So hor.. I walked all the way from Yishun Collabrium, along Yishun Road, down 4 bus stops. Never had I felt so stupid and lost leh.. Thankfully I still have a good sense of direction, can walk all the way without getting lost =)

And I got to see the beautiful sky when reaching Bec’s place!

By the time I reached Bec’s place, it was 3.45. Baby Kyle was asleep, at the instruction of Bec, targeted at the sister Kate, Min Min (the big cousin) took my hand and brought me to see the sleeping Kyle instead. HAhahaha.. 4 yr old Min Min doesn’t look her age leh.. She looks like she’s at least 5-6 yrs old. Let me see if I can find a photo of her on Elmo’s blog.

Here it is! The little girl on the right. The younger girl on the left is Win Win, Min Min’s sister, 2-3 months younger than Kate.

I was told (when I was leaving) that Min Min doesn’t really talk to strangers. I remembered that she totally ignored me when I visited baby Kate 2 yrs back. I guess I must have had more fats that made me look chubbier and kiddier? hahaha

So well, back to topic. Baby Kyle was asleep, so I had Kate to entertain me!

Then the mum asked her to do funny face.

Oh she was entertaining me with the bread toaster on her lap 😀

Moments later, Kyle woke up for his milk. Seeing that he’s back asleep after that, I had him in my arms! muahahahahha

You know that he’s sound asleep when this happens..

I totally forgot to take a photo of the cute shirts I bought for Kyle. At least.. I think they’re cute lah! Though Bec’s taste is much better than mine. HAHHA

And so.. I left Bec’s place reluctantly at 5.30. Disturbed them for too long already! Mission accomplished!

Got this news last night, only had the chance to write a proper post now 😉

HELLO Baby Bin Jie! aka Cowboy (the nick which the mum gave earlier and I thought it suits him ahhaha)

He came to this world at 1.10pm yesterday! Have already prepared a welcome gift for him, the next challenge is when to pass to him lol

And that makes the 3rd boy born this month – Jiaqi’s baby George, Bec’s baby Kyle, Carolina aka Twipster’s baby Bin Jie.

I think the next one should be baby Treia..

郭静 – 在树上唱歌
作詞：姚若龍　作曲：陳小霞

想要光着脚丫 在树上唱歌

你说的每个笑话 我都笑了
是你变幽默还是 我变快乐
好久不见你说我 大不相同
偷偷告诉你 我的心去 整型了

不想对每件事都 那么严格
弄得全世界好像 只剩挫折
爱一朵花不猜 它能开多久
放宽的心情 把什么 都变美了

想要光着脚丫 在树上唱歌
好多事物全被 缩小了
心里不想放的 就去了 算了
让太阳把脸庞 给晒得红通通

想要吹着口哨 在树上唱歌
要像开往远方 的火车
可以那么轻快 地穿过山洞
大树上还很空 你要不要陪我

*cough* Yes I reached office ONLY at 11am! woohoo~ (?) haha

Out of house at 9am (which was already later than my usual timing). Saw a jammed BKE from the doorstep (Yes I stay just at the BKE exit). Learning from my previous lesson (the one which I left house at 8am for a 9.30am staff meeting, saw traffic jam and took train but ended up reaching office only at 9.30am), I decided to stay with my normal routine and take bus (which usually takes 45mins, 1hr 15mins for such traffic jams). I was prepared to reach office probably by 10.30am.

*cough*

Wrong choice.

Bus frequency was low. All were packed. And I had 2 bus services that can bring me to town. Service 960 came ONCE and was packed. Service 190 came several times but ALL were packed – blame the inconsiderate passengers who didn’t want to move in. ANGRY!

After waiting for 30mins, I was tempted to just take urgent AM leave. But colleague said, since already wake up already.. no point wasting the leave. Which was logical anyway..

Finally managed to squeeze on service 190 at 9.47am. *phew*

The jam was pretty much the normal traffic jam. Was out of BKE by 10.05am? A distance that normally takes 5mins.

But then.. there was still a jam! ALAMAK! I didn’t catch this news on the radio! Another accident on PIE before Eng Neo exit!

And so.. I reached the Concorde Hotel bus stop (the one before Plaza Singapura) only at 10.27am, need to change bus to reach office.

LED display says services 16 comes in 12min, service 14 13min. So I hopped over to the foodcourt beside the hotel to get coffee, and see whatever I can get (preparing to skip lunch hour). Not many stalls were opened yet, so I got coffee and a chicken pau. One uncle was busy preparing my coffee, so I self-serviced to the chicken pau from the steamer next to me. I told the uncle I took chicken pau. But hor.. another uncle walked over, used his HAND to take the pau OUT of the paperbag to check what pau I took. WTF!!!!!! HELLO UNCLE! BE MORE HYGENIC CAN?!?!?!??! THE TONG IS JUST BESIDE YOU!! WAH LAO!!

Already not in a good mood from the 2 traffic jams, this uncle just had to spoil my day.

Almost time for bus 16 to arrive.

SBS 836 G. You’re making it to the news SOON. I flagged the bus. (And I wasn’t the only one who wanted to take that service). Bus slowed down but DIDN’T STOP! WTF AGAIN?!?!?!
THERE WERE ONLY A FEW CATS ON THE BUS!!! (Literally translated from 小猫几只 which means there were only a few people on board, less than 10!)

ARGHHHHHHH!!!

Chill chill.. bus 14 is just behind..

Alighted at the suntec bus stop. While I was walking to Shaw Tower, felt something cool on my toe (something dropped on it). Looked down and saw.. a jelly-like squishy thingy! WTF for the THIRD time! EEEWWWWWWWWWWWWW! Didn’t know what it is, used tissue and wiped it off.

And so.. I reached office only at 11am.

WAH LAO!!! CAN MY MORNING BE ANY BETTER?!?!?

Post edit: And oh.. the coffee SUCKS too! *sick*
