Got an sms from Uyop at 0630hrs. Nylie was posted to Whitley Secondary School; though not her first choice of secondary school, I am not fretting.

Was a bit of a rush this morning but I managed to buy my favourite “breakfast” that is Mr Bean 3-in-1 at Choa Chu Kang MRT. It’s an indulging silky soft texture soya beancurd in soya milk together with Tang Yuan, peanut in a glutinous rice ball. Will tell you more about Tang Yuan.

It was rather a quiet ride home earlier. The train was only 3/4 full; unusual. School and coming Xmas holidays, plus toward end of the year, when most people has to clear their annual leave, could be, the factors for my quite ride home. I like it this way. For a change, I get to read peacefully without having to worry about commuters barging, yes barging, in and out of the train.


Once home, I was greeted by Uyop gorgeous trademark smile. He was practising his guitar strumming near our hallway.

Back to my usual routine; of preparing dinner.

After dinner, the girls did their part of cleaning the kitchen and washing "the pots and pans".

Like I promise earlier. I googled; Tang Yuan is a Chinese Food made from glutinous rice flour. Glutinious rice flour is mixed with a small amount of water to form balls and is then cooked and served in boiling water. It is tradionally eaten during Lantern Festival. And what I actually ate was, 4 soft glutionous rice balls that oozed out delicious mouth-watering grounded peanut.

Enough of that already. I am still disappointed for not being able to post my picture to FaceBook. Got to look into it fast.


3 things that made me smile today :

1. managed to get Mr Bean 3-in-1 in a “I will definitely miss the
bus” state without really missing the bus.

2. that today is Tuesday – 2 more days to a long, hopefully great weekend.

3. saw that handsome smile and his sheer determination to perfect his strumming
