Wanted to download some pictures took outside Isabel's ballet school, just to find out that I don't have the correct cable.

Am thinking to learn how to sing this song and sing with BABY during BIL's wedding next year... Malay weddings normally have karaoke... this song sounds good.

Turned on the stove for the first time in close to a month. Still Jap siao, tried to cook Jap rice with beef... Am trying to get that Yoshinoya Beef Bowl effect.

Now I have three types of rice in the kitchen: normal white rice, organic brown rice and Jap short grain rice. The ironical fact is if I have the chance to cook, it's only like once a week. So these rice can last till CNY.

Girl's ballet exam is coming. I was just informed that we need to bun up her hair with a net, apply light make up, etc. I am more excited than her. She is more excited that she can put on make up than what exams. I don't know how she will fair. I enrolled her in ballet not because I didn't have a chance to go when I was young, but I feel like many girls her age, she simply love to be dressed up that way.

Talking about dance, I once joined a Chinese folk dancing club in my primary school. When I was into my 2nd or 3rd lesson, we were asked to pay around S$10 for a pair of red silk "shawl" for dancing purpose.

Those days, S$10 was bigger than the lorry tyre.

Few lessons later, the teacher told the other student I didn't have to attend anymore.

TMD.

Now you know system was such 20 over years ago... the teacher made you paid, asked you to go and not having the courtesy to speak to you directly. Mother was furious but during my time, rarely parents complained.

ANYWAY, I heard that teacher died of nose cancer. RIP.
