ME : Good
ME : YS, how to say "我要大便" in english?
YS : Teacher, I want to poo.
ME : Good
ME : YS, if you see teacher in the morning, how are you going to greet her?
YS : Teacher, I want to Good Morning.

YS's bed time story
I enjoyed reading bed time story to YS before he sleep. Usually he will picks the story book from the cupboard himself and we read for him. After many rounds of the same story, hubby and myself have know exactly what to tell even without reading at it.
Last weekend, we travelled to KL for some errands. Since I did not bring any books with me this trip, I asked if YS still like to have a story before he sleep, he answered "Yes Mummy", sis Audrey present at the time of this bed time story. YS said he would like to listen to the title "Prince and His Missing Tooth". This is the n-th time my son listen to this story. He used to be quiet and patient all these while.
The story begin...
ME : There is this Prince Charming, he woke up one day and found his tooth missing, so he asked around for his tooth, he asked to the Giant Tree, " Did you see my tooth? " and the tree said , " Oh, I lost my leaf too, can you please help to find it? then I shall tell you where is your tooth." , then he walk to the Swan , " Did you see giant tree's missing leaf? ", " Oh I lost one of my feathers too, can you please help to find it? then I shall tell you where is the giant tree's leaf gone." answered the Swan.
... the story continue and prince asked to Cricket and so...
Suddenly !!
YS : Mummy, why? How come the Giant Tree, Swan and Cricket speak in the story ?
ME : @_@|||
ME : Yes, in fairy tale story, creatures, trees and plants speak to human being !
每天晚上,我们会让永轩自己挑绘本,我们念给他听。上个周末我和永轩到外地去,当我把滚瓜烂熟的绘本故事讲给他听时。。。
我 :有一天,小王子睡醒发现自己的门牙不见了。他就到处去找门牙。来到大树前, 他问大树,你有看见我的门牙吗? 大树就说,哦, 我的叶子也掉落不见了,你帮我找回来我告诉你门牙在那里。
接着, 故事一直延伸到小王子问了天鹅,蝉, 葫芦棚架等等。
这是,永轩突然问我, “ 妈咪为什么大树,天鹅,蝉, 葫芦棚, 它们会讲话的呢? ”
@_@||| 这么一问,我被吓到,不懂如何回答他。 就只好说,这是故事,故事里的大树,天鹅,蝉是会讲话的。
天啊 ! 谁可以帮帮忙,我要应如何应对以后可能他再问一些我不懂回答的问题。

Dialog with Yong Shuan
I enjoyed chatting with my going-to-be 3 years old. He surprised me most of the time with the vocabulary he used. We practice speaking in Mandarin most of the time, occasionally Cantonese.

ME : 弟弟将要出世了,我会和永轩回怡保小住。
YS : NO, 妈咪。你和爸爸看店,你丢下我和阿嘛和 Ginger (our beloved toy poodle) , 阿公. 我们就这样"决定"啦.
Mmmm. I wonder where did he learn the word 决定 ?
Incident No. 2:
ME : 妈咪需要去一趟看牙医, 你和阿嘛在家等妈咪, 好不好?
YS : 不可以, 妈咪。我和你一起去. 我也要看牙医.
ME : 但是你不能够进去房间里面等妈咪.
YS : 我要进去, 我 promise 我不会乱乱碰牙医的东西.
ME : @_@|||
Incident No. 3:
YS : 妈咪, 我要去学校.
ME : 好啊. 那你要学会自己穿鞋. 不需要妈咪帮的.
YS : 我自己穿会很慢嘛. 妈咪帮我会比较快.
ME : 那你去学校谁帮呢?
YS : 叫老师帮咯.
ME : @_@|||
Incident No. 4:
YS : 妈咪, 我要去学校.
ME : 好啊. 妈咪在附近找学校给你报名.
YS : 不要. 不要附近的. 要远远的.
ME : 为什么?
YS : 可以坐巴士去.
ME : @_@|||

Yong Shuan first movie in the cinema - How to Train Your Dragon.
S11 rest every Wednesday, so we went to replenish some stock and sundry. Upon finish, daddy bring Yong Shuan to experience his first cartoon in the cinema. Before we went into the theater, we kept telling him it is ok if he prefers to walk out of the cinema, though in our mind, we wish him to watch at least once in the cinema until the end.

We picked this Dreamworks - How to Train Your Dragon. I must say today's cartoon are meant to be viewed both by the adults and kids. The story line is good, animation is bravo and cute. It is recommended.
Luckily the sound system of this cinema at Seberang Jaya is not very loud, I am not sure if it is the speaker or the movie itself, but we loved the way it is. Yong Shuan will be frighten if the sound is too loud. He used to watch movie at home from the TV or Laptop but not in the cinema.
After the show, we went to this Mega Kiddie World for some sweat session for Yong Shuan. Both of us ended up more exhausted than our boy. This place is all covered with sponged pillar and gigantic slides, rubber balls shooting, round trampoline, gigantic piano on the floor etc. He loves the pool of plastic balls while the daddy thought to get him one round trampoline when we can afford our own place one day.

The wanted UWA Lens
Right before the Chinese New Year break, SW bought his first 50mm 1.8 prime lens from Penang. I am not good at photo shooting and camera spec but have been reading a lot from this group invited by Godsis - Shutterbug for Fun in Facebook.
Once the camera shop owner fix the lens up, WOW.. marvelous. We cannot wait to shoot more still life object and portrait. Since we wish to know at least how far are we from our desired UWA lens and the add-on flash light kit, we have asked about the Nikkor one as well as the the 3rd parties'. This kind uncle the shop owner allow us to have a try on the UWA. It was so tempting to own one when we see the result of the shooting. However, RM3k is like WOW.....!
The left is the normal lens we got when we first bought the Nikon D40X and the right is the UWA 10-24mm. Arrrggghhh ! We got to work harder and save more.

Just Photos
We went to Gurney Penang for Daddy's New Year Shirt, these are the photos taken during lunch at Manhattan Fish Market. Yong Shuan loves the Baked Dory Fish with Herbs.
Thanks to Daddy's ex-colleague, she shared her HD's coupons. Yong Shuan enjoyed the HD's limited edition - Chocolate Orange Ice Cream very much and of course daddy never miss Green Tea is another flavor we tried on.
~ * ~ * ~ * ~
We went lunch with mum couple weeks ago at this new De Garden near JJ Ipoh. If you are a fans of FookChew Dishes - 红昭鸡(译音), then there is this place called TOS that served this in their menu. Sorry no pictures on the food, we were too hungry.
By the way, Godsis Siew took some nice landscape photos at her flickr. Click and have a look.
Penang Butterfly Farm & Hard Rock
Finally, I managed to find time to clean up my HDD. I found these photos in the folder waiting to be uploaded to the blog. My daily responsible at S Eleven is more routine now, hopefully this continue on so that I have time for my photos and the blog.

We went to Penang Butterfly Farm last Nov. Wednesday is rest day for S Eleven. If we never make a trip back to Ipoh, we mostly spend time at Penang or Butterworth for dining & quality family time.

~ * ~ * ~ * ~
Thanks to Godsis - Siew's effort in making a wonderful birthday vacation comes true. She has gathered my childhood friend and we went to Hard Rock to enjoy a sunny weekend in Penang.
Yes, this is the first hotel staying trip since Siem Reap last Feb. We enjoyed the pool, the slide and the room very much.

My 2009
I used to think, during job interview, why the interviewer like to ask questions that sound like this " What's your biggest achievement in life so far? " , " How you see yourself in 5 years time? " . Does any of you heard something like this before ? " Just imagine, what if you won a 10 millions jackpot after 2 weeks we hired you, what would you do with the money and your job? "
A few of my cousins are going through these this time of the year. I am feeling good because I will not need to have that any more, as long as I keep doing what I am working hard now, and keep improving it.
Yes, 2009 has been one of the good year in my life. Not forgot to mention I got married on 2005, give birth to YS on 2007. We started a "family business" this year - S Eleven Store. I called it "family" because almost everyone in the family contributes to the business in one way or another. Thank you.
2009, we went to Hard Rock Hotel for getaway with childhood friends during their opening promotion. It was our first Hard Rock stay.
2009, mum diagnosed with a weird blood disorder that even the doctor cannot explain the root cause of it, however we feel lucky we discovered it earlier and treating it now. Her condition is now stable and we feel thankful every morning when we wake up that mum is happy.
2009, start to hear from Audrey, she is planning her wedding. So we are looking forward for a simple yet grand and meaningful day to come somewhere end of the year.
2009, Audrey bought her own unit in KL. It is like another home for us whenever we wish to stop by KL for shopping of any other errands. We even left our personal belonging like toothbrush there for convenient sick.
2009, we went to Siam Reap and visited one of the world greatest heritage - Angkor Wat. We brought YS and my parents along. Everyone enjoyed the get together, especially Audrey & parents with YS.
My 2010, I am looking forward my second baby, expanding business solution for S Eleven Store and another family vacation.

Weep ... Weep ...
This afternoon, while we were busy unpacking stocks from the supplier, Yong Shuan found this small whisk set in the box. He said to daddy : "Can I have this?". Daddy said : " No, you got to earn money to buy from daddy. "
The next thing you know, Yong Shuan walked to the cash register, hit the button, opened the drawer, get 5 cents and hand to his daddy. " Nah, daddy now I buy this from you."
Daddy and Mummy gave Yong Shuan a big big hug and tears rolling. We have to start teaching him cannot simply open the drawer, and 5 cents is not equal to RM 4.30.
