I thought spam or something. Hahaha… Did you like read this during work? If so, notti notti… *wags finger at you* Anyway, cool to see you posting here when you’ve always been so silent. Woah… lemme see how to organize my thoughts to reply you.<BR/><BR/><BR/><B>On my memory and knowledge…</B><BR/>My memory is actually not very good. It’s selective by nature. Things that I actually remember vividly do not even require much effort on my part. I wish my memory could be better coz I’m one of the most forgetful person on earth. Haha… <BR/><BR/>I can remember the outing clearly coz I look at the order of the photos and let all the memory flow back to me naturally. When I read back at some of the older posts, I don’t even remember certain incidents that had happened. Maybe it’s really good to have a blog to refer to. =)<BR/><BR/>Hey my knowledge is nothing. I happen to like nature and know all these things. Also, you’re talking about a Primary English, Maths and Science teacher here. I definitely would know many plant names (pitcher ah, all the water plants ah, heliconia ah) and facts. You did a good job in explaining how the pitcher plant “eats” insects!<BR/><BR/><BR/><B>On being the best gift and our friendship…</B><BR/>Thanx babe but you really guo jiang le. I love the kids so much and you too. I’m so glad that our paths crossed 8-9 years ago. Whoever heard of making friends just from one flight to Perth, sharing the same apartement, trawling a foreign city all by ourselves and having the friendship stay on till now? I’ll always remember all the sweet memories of the past, how we got to know each other, how we managed to stay in contact, how we managed to be such good frenz etc… Of course some things have changed and I really hated how it turned out but it was good that the friendship with kh and “him” actually brought us together.<BR/><BR/><BR/><B>On kids picking habits and speech from adult…</B><BR/>Hahaha… ARE YOU CRAZY???!!! I know who Skyler is. I alwiz refer to her as Jase’s gf too. Oh in fact, my frenz saw Alexis and family at the flea and evan commented that Skyler is very sweet and model-looking. <BR/><BR/>I can imagine how Jase would sound when he said, Are you crazy?” And yeah… it’s just an innocent utterance but kids really would pick them up and use it. Just like la, leh, lor.<BR/><BR/>Ya la… char must have picked up all the poses from you too! Talk about being bimbo… scarly not just char but jase as well.. Wahaha… Alwiz surrounded by girls.<BR/><BR/><BR/><B>On the zebra joke…</B><BR/>Let’s try that lame riddle on them when they are much older and see their reactions. Wahaha…<BR/><BR/><BR/><B>On not being able to finish this entry which happened more than 1 month back…</B><BR/>Yawn… I’m sleepy and can’t continue. Oh you didn’t get angry with them at the water park. It was the pony ride. Hahaha… and yes.. I was gonna write about you being mad at them and how they were so cute and “poor thing” and feeling so guilty.<BR/><BR/>Come back and read the final edit of this entry!<BR/><BR/>This must be my longest comment ever.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03809710184123691858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392001.post-76646273106568516832008-12-10T01:05:00.000+08:002008-12-10T01:05:00.000+08:00Hey June,OIC!

Aside to my own thoughts! HAHA...Godma Ale...HAHA... Aside to my own thoughts! HAHA...<BR/><BR/>Godma Alexis was complaining to me that "Skyler kept saying: ARE YOU CRAZY?" to me. [Skyler is Jase's gf cum classmates cum godsis cum neighbours cum Qing1 Mei2 Zu2 Ma3.] I laughed and said "Dunno".<BR/><BR/>The next day, I heard Jase said "ARE YOU CRAZY?" to mama me. And i was like "OMG, its me. Because they literally picked everything off my speech!" HAHA, and hence I tried to recall if it was indeed me. Needless to say, its ME alright. As embarrassed as I was, I had to call Alexis back and confessed that once again, Skyler has picked off the line from Jase who had in turn learnt it from me!!! Alexis laughed and commented "SO YOU WERE THE CULPRIT HUH!" As usual, its always ME when it comes to "BO LIAO" lines and ideas and bimbotic comments. LOL. With a bimbo mum like me and a bimbo godma like you... how can Char not turn out to be another bimbo? HAHA... <BR/><BR/>Anyway, the whole non-sensical morale of this para is, I saw myself writing "ARE YOU CRAZY" in the previous comment I wrote minutes ago! ITS ME ALRIGHT!

Your memory is always so scarily powerful!<BR/><BR/>Boy, i am so glad the kids have you. I have no doubts when they are 12 and starts asking me abt all our excursions - i would go "are you crazy, how can i remember?" HAHA... However, thanks to you and your blog - every little outing with you is gonna remain fresh on my mind with your detailed description and your bionic memory! And, I am defo gonna send them off to Godma Jolene who will still be able to narrate the tiniest details like how angry mama was at the water theme park! HAHA... I am seriously hopeless when it comes to telling war stories. Goldfish memory literally. Maybe thats how i stay sane and happy. YOU on the other hand, is their best gift ever! They are gonna remember all their growing up years 'war stories' because of you - Your blog, your simply amazing brain power. And needless to say, your knowledge!
