ASHR in New Moon...

Woke up to an irritating sound of chopper slap-banged to a chopping board. Thought I could ignore that. Imagine this. At 0530 plus hours, your body is comfortably tugged on to the comforter – the bed only to yourself, and your other half of course, you have good minutes to savour, ONLY to be woken up not by the sweet music of your alarm clock...URGGH!!

Get the girls to shower, ready for their ASHR – Advanced Student Honor Roll award recipient ceremony at Woodlands Regional Library. We are supposed to be there by 1015 hours. We were quite punctual – nah 5 to 10 minutes late because we stopped by 7-11 store for snacks.

When we reached there, the event has not started but most of the parents and award recipients were already seated.

I did not anticipate Dyna’s turn to be so soon. I have not gotten myself settle down to the seat they have allocated to us yet. Was still deciding on to change seats or not, as I feel it is not easy for me to take nice shots from that angle. We've allocated us a corner seats - it will hinder my movement. Restriction of this sort is not what I wanted at that moment. I wanted to take pictures of the girls receiving their awards. Oh well, in short I did not get to capture Dyna’s candid moment. I hope to get a copy of Dyna's picture receiving the award, from Kumon.

All went well, felt like it has ended even before it began.

We had lunch at Banquet and watch New Moon soon after. New Moon was a disappoinment. Either because the movie theater was too cold or the story line is. It could be easily 18ÂșC. I like the scene where the “wolves” were cliff diving. Awesome thrill. I would love to do that some day. Hope I don’t get to old to cliff dive.

3 things that made me smile today :
1. to see the girls on stage receiving their awards..
2. the thought of me cliff diving
3. still the iPhone....struggling even to call Uyop.
