Cable Car and Casino

Here in Singapore there are so many things to do to get entertained. You can spend a whole day just exploring the islang of Sentosa ... you can also make a trip to Orchard and go shopping ... you can also find amusement places offering water sports and activities in the East Coast or you can simply experience the Cable Car.

After 11 months of staying here in SG I've mustered the courage to get on the Cable Car and explore the city from the top. It was not as bad as I thought it would be ... considering I'm utterly scared of heights and can readily get nauseated in high altitudes. I took the trip with Thomas and Bianca. And Bianca even promised to hold my hand when we get in the car. And true enough she not only held my hand but she also cheered words of comfort and encouragement ... now that's what I call raising your parents! hahahahahhahaha!

When we were up there, we got to see how huge the Casino project is in Sentosa. Locals here are half half on the idea of introducing gambling in this magnitude. Yes they have been very much exposed to betting ... with horses, with the lotto ... but they say the Casino is for sure in a different level ... the stakes are higher. Apart from giving jobs to locals and to other nationalities from neighboring countries as well as fostering growth in tourism, the skeptics are still not convinced that this enterprise is good for the country. But it is happening ... so let's just see how all these effects unfold to the society and to the international scene.

Bianca's going on 4!

Time is fleeting! Seems like yesterday that I was holding Bianca for the first time in my arms. After 14 hours of labor, this precious girl has come to our lives full of vibrancy and life. Now she's turning four and the enormous happiness and contentment that she has given us is truly priceless.

My husband and I decided to have a low key yet fun birthday celebration for her 4th. Got the green light from her school director this morning that we can have the party in school. Now I just have to think what to bring for snacks.

Unlike the years before, she's very vocal on her opinion on what she'd like for her birthday. She readily expressed that she wanted to have the party with her friends in school ... now that's reading my mind right?! heheheeh ... Then my husband asked her what kind of cake she wanted. We both thought she'd request for a princess kinda cake since she has all these collections of girly girly stuff ... but no, she wanted a long neck dinasour cake! She also said that if she could not get the long neck then she'd settle for a rocket ship - the one that the Little Einstein kids ride on! We know that she has this facination with dinos and love the show from Playhouse Disney Little Einstein but we didnt expect that she'd be very passionate about having either a long lost animal or a zooming aircraft for a cake!

So with that I think we are bound to see more of the unexpected from Bianca with the years to come!

Happy Birthday Mausi! :)

2 Kids

I feel very blessed for the opportunity of having 2 kids ... some people resort to scientific means just to conceive ... some even go to the lengths of praying to all fertility idols in order to have that "bundle of joy" ....

There are so many things i wanted to say ... but right now i dont have time to put them all in writing ... so allow me to let our photos show you how much life and happiness our latest addition has given us :)
