another week has gone by. let me see, papa brought home $200 on friday, so we decided to order 1 crab for dinner.

on sat morning, we went to rangoon road to eat bak kuh teh for breakfast. shiok, quite crowded but managed to find space. the children enjoyed the you tiao. it's really nice. but $22.60, hmmm, quite a huge sum for breakfast. then in the afternoon, we went to rent 3 vcds to watch, 2 chinese film and 1 english film. world trade centre. bought some food to cook lunch.

then sis called and asked us to go watch spiderman 3 in the evening. we agreed. had to arrange max and the maid to be with my mother, so marcus, mabel, papa, me, sis and sis' bf, all six of us went to yishun 10 to watch spiderman 3 at 1810hr. we noticed yishun 10 shows a lot of bollywood movies. anyway, watched the show. nice show. marcus actually sat throughout the show and was very attentive. how i know he was attentive, he could remember a lot of the details of the movie after that. mabel slept for a while during the movie.

after the movie, we went yoshinoya in northpoint to eat. the kids didn't eat much cos they had so much popcorn during the movie. i noticed i had rice for all 3 meals on sat. rice for breakfast, (bak kuh teh), rice for lunch (cooked at home) and then rice for dinner (yoshinoya) god, i feel like a rice bucket.

then at night, we continued with our 2nd vcd. 'world trade centre' papa fell asleep halfway through the show. well, i was kind of disappointed with the show. no doubt it showed how the 2 policemen were rescued... ok, the effects of the wtc collapsing is quite real. but i expected the show to have more real life accounts, like those people in the top floors, wat happen when the plane slam into their offices, how did they manage to evacuate... it was like they took some time to walk all the way down... wat happen while they were evacuating, i was like hoping more for that.

again, didn't have a good sleep. max is not sleeping well at night. he tends to wake up in the middle of the night to make noise. then i really have to sit up and shake the cradle and pat him. then after that, i was like lying on my side, hand stretched out and holding this string which we attached to the side of the cradle and tugging the string to shake the cradle. hand muscles aching these few days. very interrupted sleep these few nights.

then on sunday, went to church to fetch marcus and mabel in the afternoon, went to tampines ikea for lunch and to shop around for their bedroom furniture. not really shop, juz checking out the items and let them take part in choosing their own bedroom furniture. it was surprisingly not very crowded. maybe becos most of the crowd is at giant or maybe due to the coming exams, more families are at home with their kids mugging for exams. ha! really tired in the afternoon when we came home. was watching the 3rd vcd, but could not tahan, slept. max and marcus slept too. mabel, i think she didn't sleep, dunno what she is busy with.

at night, went to this taiwan restaurant to eat. well, basically more for papa and sis and sis' bf to eat the 'smelly beancurd' hmm, i've tried it once, i really could not take the taste. so this time, only the 3 of them are eating, and my sis kept coercing me to eat, i said no. even until now, i can still smell the 'smelly beancurd' smell, it's like lingering around me. anyway, i know eating this is an acquired taste.

ok, max seems to be unhappy, got to quickly log off and go and check him out.
