Return home soon!

Random pictures from the past 2 weekends. I will definitely miss the little ones when they return to Shanghai! Wonder when the family is going to return to Singapore for good. :

Went to Johor over the Olympics Opening/National Day weekend. Not exactly the most patriotic citizen, I know. But speaking of Olympics Opening, wasn't the ceremony phenomenal!! It actually got me cheering at home on a Friday night. Utterly beyond-words. (Note that I deliberately left NDP out)

Anyway, back to Johor. The whole bunch of us, JX and my family, dragged ourselves up early to start making our way to avoid the jam. The jam beat us to it though. Had crappy breakfast at Woodlands and emptied our bladders in toilets with hygiene conditions that made me cringe 50 times in the span of taking a piss.

Our great noble uncle who drove us labouriously around (almost cramping his calves stuck in a traffic jam) while we snored away behind. THANK YOU SA-GU!

Squashed.

JX’s virgin trip into Malaysia – after 26 years in his life! Is he Singaporean?

Had Bah Kut Teh – supposedly the must-eat item when we step into Malaysia each time. But... even though I love the golden mushrooms, the soup doesn’t taste distinctly like BKT. Pork pork and more pooooork. Ever tried eating in a sauna? It enhances the eating experience!

She was swivelling so vigourously, we thought she could advertise for the Osim 'horse'-chair. And who said that getai was distinctively Singapore?

Who's more child-like? The kids? Or... my uncle holding his ice-cream cone innocently?

Camwhoring with Malaysian mannequins. Little did we realize that the little one was every bit of a camwhore like us or more. If you let him lay his little hands on your handphone, your handphone would soon explode - with his self-shot pictures.

Celebrated the little one’s birthday in advance.

Headed back to Singapore after a fishy and salty dinner. Dead beat.

Really gonna miss them when they return to Shanghai. They’re all growing up faster than we thought. :(
