Kodak Moment with Kan Pa and Kan Ma!
We may disagree on a lot of things, but when it comes to movies, both Caitlynn and I simply love Happy Feet! Nope, not the sequel, which we have for some unknown reasons been not able to watch it as yet, but the original one.
When you get a movie that can keep both of us silently still for long periods of time, it’s gotta be a good movie, right?
Influences of Happy Feet:
- Taught us stuff like leopard seals and elephant seals!
- Always makes Caitlynn to wanna dance!
- Showed me the symbol of love. Really!
- Showed importance of fish! Hee!

It’s already been more than a week into the new year of 2012, but I just can’t stop thinking of the fun times during the long holidays of 2011!
One of those evenings in Ipoh, I followed Kan Pa and Kan Ma back to their home where I had the most delightful and ‘fishiest’ times ever!
You see, Kan Pa had bought Kan Ma a fish aquarium for her Christmas present and I had the special privilege to help out it up with Kan Pa! Wee!
It was definitely my first time playing setting up this type of thing, but I think I did well….and had a lot of fun too! These are some of the photos from my fishy evening:





Mission Completion!



We were so efficient and fast in setting up the aquarium that we had plenty of time after that to do many other things too, like helping Kan Ma water the plants and also take a nice evening stroll around the neighbourhood and meet some new friends…




Ahhh….now you see why I can’t for the next long holidays?..:-D
Today’s marks my final day before I step into the next milestone of my growth – kindergarten…
Papa and Mama have already make prior arrangements and registered me to attend this kindergarten that is relatively close by Auntie D’s house.
During registration, I was given the school bag that was (not surprisingly) quite heavy. Inside, I found a stack of books that I will be using for the coming semester..
I was quite disappointed because I was expecting some toys or other fun stuff in the school bag…sigh. Sure hope this kindergarten thingy is not too boring. Too many books is sure a scary sight, sometimes.
Anyway, we were then given two sets of kindergarten uniforms – one for classes and one more more play. The kindergarten boss sure was pretty surprised to see my size, and had to give me an L size for my uniform. At the rate I’m growing, I wonder if this kindergarten will have anything of my size in the coming years!
With my bags, uniform and books checked, Papa had to make sure i didn’t leave out any stationery either…

Ahhh…now, I AM ready for school!

Moving forward to a new year has always been exciting.
What lies ahead? What’s to look out for? Will it be better than 2011?
These are some of the things I’m looking forward to in 2012:
- Turning FOUR!
- Going to kindergarten – my first taste of school..
- Getting a new baby brother!
- Sunday School reopens!
- More big brother time with Caitlynn!
But whatever it is, I’m pretty sure 2012 is gonna be really bright, so I just gotta put on those shades and move forward in confidence!

Are you looking forward to 2012?
Although food is best served piping hot, most times, we would still try to cool it down a little unless we want a burnt tongue!
These are some ways to cool down your hot, hot food:
1. Blow…
2. Turn on the fan…
3. Open the windows…
4. Use hand fan, or any available book, paper…
5. Get Papa or Mama to blow…
6. Go play something or watch TV first…
7. Ice it!
8. Stir it!
9. Smell the food first, whilst waiting…
And my favourite method of all…
10. Make a food VOLCANO….

God’s Spirit makes us loving, happy, peaceful, patient, kind, good, faithful, gentle and self-controlled (Galatians 5:22; CEV)
Another thing I like about the Christmas season is learning and listening to a whole lot of Christmas songs. My favourite to date is the one called Angels We Have Heard On High, but I prefer to call it Gloria. Even Caitlynn can sing to that one! Hee!
Anyway, one of those days, Papa was playing some Christmas songs from this band called Third Day, when I heard this lovely live rendition of Silent Night…
Me: Papa?
Papa: Yes, Collin?
Me: What song is this Papa?
Papa: This song is Silent Night.
Me: Sky the Night?
Papa: No…it’s called SI-LENT NIGHT
Me: Orh…Silent Night.
Papa: Yes, Collin…Silent Night.
Me: What is Silent, Papa?
Papa: Silent is *Shhhhhhhhh*
Me: Huh?
Papa: Shhhhhhhh…as in staying quiet…
Me: Orh…staying quiet.
Papa: Yup.
Me: Staying quiet like staying peaceful, right?
Papa: Yes, Collin.
Me: Just like my memory verse number five…
Papa: What’s that, Collin?
Me: God’s Spirit makes us loving, happy, PEACEFUL, patient, kind, good, faithful, gentle and self-controlled. Like that lor.
Papa: That’s right, Collin!

Yup, blogging can be a pretty tiring task…see how serious and stressed out I look in front of the PC…I’m sure all of you bloggers out there would have experienced this one time or another..:-D
So, what would I do to de-stress?…
Well, if I am with Kan Pa, he would gladly open up games for me to play! Hee!
He says it will help me improve my hand and eye coordination..:-P

Ahhh….it always feels good to knock down walls and structures and destroying pigs at the same time!
This is what I would call my ‘angry breaks’!
How do YOU de-stress from blogging?
Yay! It’s that time of the year again!
The season of giving and receiving, of family and friends, of presents and food, of hope and love…and of course, of trees, decor and lights!
Yes, Christmas is indeed coming soon!
About two weeks ago, Papa and Mama finally took out the all-important boxes filled with the seasonal greens and decorations and lights. Caitlynn is about a year older now since we last put up the tree so she was able to help a bit more than just stare at us last year. Hee! Well, actually, she did more running around the tree compared to last year, but I’m pretty sure she will be an asset in tearing down the tree after Christmas..:-p
Yup, setting up the family Christmas tree is always great fun and activity for the entire family. Although the entire process didn’t take too long (guess we’re getting pro at this), the time spent hanging the bells and balls with one another is great quality time that simply cannot be missed!
And the joy of watching the lights come on is just irresistible!
Here are photos of the us putting up the tree and decor…all in good time for Christmas!







Whew…what fun!
Now, all we need are the pressies!
