Gerald boy

He is just so adorable.
He eats regularly, sleeps regularly.
Still refuse to sit in his car sit until we reach destination.
Still refuse to poo in potty.
Still refuse to leave all the remote controls alone.
He learns super fast.
He can show signs like "pa pa (afraid/scared)", "bao bao (full)", "no more", don't want", "fan", "how fan turn", "where is TV", "which is clock", "hi-5", "bye bye", "where is monkey (his fav soft toy now)", "where is bear bear"

He bit his own tongue when he fell slightly yesterday. His tongue bleed.
He showed me his tongue when I said "show mama, euk (my tongue out)"

I can't wait for him to meet his relatives from America. Unfortunately xiao yi can't make it.

The Lollipop House - Is this a good brand name
































































































Where do I want to take my hobby?
Do I want to make it to a formal business? Though it has already become a small business.
I have yet to figure it out. I want to be able to have my own little handcraft, art and lifestyle boutique, but I wouldn't want to hire people to produce what I have came up with so far. I want my handmade really made by myself. I do not wish to expand my handmade but I would like to create a place for my handmade and other stuff that I like.
See... this is confusing because I am confused.
I love attending bazaars once a while, especially loving art and handmade bazaars as the customers do really appreciate the things that we made. Unlike fashion bazaar where all customers will always ask for discount, even thought it is just RM 7.90. They don't appreciate because they simply don't care.

I shall put more thoughts into this and hopefully I will have a clearer vision and objective. This questions sticks longer as Tun asked me about it today. I have thought about it, but it is very different from what he proposed.

Anyway, I have Gerald boy to cheer me up a bit.

Our Little CNY 2011

3 Feb 2010, 1st day of Chinese New Year. We woke up early and all dressed up in red. Gerald boy was real curious about what's going on. We gave him ang pow but he doesn't know what was that and as what he usually does, put it in his mouth....
Our CNY is pretty much the same as previous years, just that this time around, we have a little boy to cheer us up. I suppose I must have gained a few pound.

It was a spontaneous decision to go Singapore wit Mom and Sis in Law + Aunty Tan. We planned that in 2 days time and I did my short research on places that I want to go to check out some craft supplies.

1) People's Center - China Town for beads and charms
2) Arab Street - Bugis for fabric

Went to Arab street on the first day, 2 long rows of shops, very nice fabric, but pricey due the the exchange rate of RM 2.50 : SGD $ 1, in the end, I didn't buy any from there. Behind Arab street, we came across a small lane, called Haji Lane, and we discovered the 2 rows of indi boutique that carries very unique and nice stuff, range from fashion apparels, vintage items to accessories. I am so inspired and hope that 1 day I can have shop like this of my own....

I tasted my 1st macaroon in Singapore : ) costing SGD$2/pc. Tasted good, but don't have the craving for it again.

NExt day, set off to People's Centre by myself at 9am after breakfast, the rest of them went to the temple. It was a fun trip going around by myself. I roamed around China Town by myself as the shops are not opened before 11am. Very good experience. Bought some supplies and head back to meet up with the rest. As our bus ride is at 5pm, Yin and I took off to explore Sentosa Island. This is not my 1st time to Sentosa, but it's my 1st after the Casino by Genting Group is opened. It was fun and HOT!!
