YowCH & Grace

We found a pair of very small sized soccer boots in Adidas Outlet and bought for Samuel (discounted from $99 to $45).

YowCH also ordered two very strong liquors, Bacardi 151° rum (flammable) and Absinthe (75% alcohol!)

We got a pair of underwater headphones for David, to encourage him for the 50 laps challenge. Finis Duo is designed to transmit sound through bone conductance. New price in Singapore is about $240, we got this second hand at $100.

Joseph built these 7 Gundam SD models over the past 3 months. He really likes doing this.

Today, Joseph participated in the Bukit Batok East Tourney. We did not win, but had lots of fun and game time.

This is Grace at 44.

Yesterday, we had pre-brithday fruits, 猫山王 (Musang King) durians.

Today, we had dinner at Spruce, located at the Firestation at Upper Bukit Timah.




The food was reasonably good, but a bit pricey. The ambiance is great, with live music and good environment.


We shared a beer, an alcoholic ginger beer.

Grace bought herself a box of Lego Brick Headz and also Salazar for her birthday!

YowCH had to spend two days in KL for tender interviews for the Tugu Park project. He stayed at The Boulevard hotel, which is right next to the KL office building in Mid Valley. He reached KL on Monday night (9 July) and left on Wednesday night (11 July).

Managed to catch a morning swim before going to the meeting.

YowCH visited the KTP KL office which has moved into the SJ office.

Esther received a prize T-shirt as top performer for NAPFA test (Physical Fitness), scoring max grades in all 6 categories. The medal is for the most number of inclined pull-ups in this batch.

We bought some durians on Tuesday and Samuel was able to help open them.

We bought Joseph a Baby-G watch, BGA240-1A3, which is meant as a reward for him achieving Swimsafe Gold standard. He has not taken the swim test yet, but his watch is running dead, so we gave him the watch anyway because his training timings have reached the Gold standard.

Samuel is still not growing as fast as he should be, so the doctor in KKH recommended to start on hormone treatment to see if it helps.

This is the whole package:

The auto-injector is applied to the buttocks, with a mild stinging-pain.
