My simple birthday

This year my birthday falls on the eve's eve of Chinese New Year. We manage to get our flight just one day before ny brithday so we can celebrate together in Penang.

We just went out for lunch at Sushi King Queensbay Mall.

Enjoying our lunch since we can't find Sushi King in Singapore.

Walk around. I wanted ti watch Underworld : The Awakening but then its 18PL. So that's when we decided to go to Redbox to sing our hearts out.

4 of us, we only paid for 2. Buffet dinner included...so worth it. Belle is below 1.4m, so she get to sing and eat for free. Bella... born in the year of dragon... also get to sing and eat for free. Only the 2 old snakes, above 1.4m have to pay for the full price to sing and eat.

The unknown singers in the Cheah family.

The food wasn't that fantastic but at least there are varieties of food. We sang, screamed our lungs out for a few hours before meeting up with my friends at Presint 10 (hope i spelled it correctly). Its a new place in Penang so we decided to go and have a look around.

Well....that's about it on how my day was spent. No presents for me this year...just food...Lol (typical Chinese always like that wan...any occasion also eat only).

Hmmm....maybe I should just go get myself something then claim. Hehehehe.

All ready for Chinese New Year!

It's just a few days away from Chinese New Year.  Hubby is in Penang cleaning our house while me and my girls, Bella & Belle is still in Singapore. We will only be going back to Penang on the 20th January 2012. A day before my birthday. We are all so excited.

There are so many things that I like when it's CNY. Firstly, its the FOOD of course. Then, the GAMBLING, followed by the gathering of family members from all over, the gossips, the ang pao's (of coz I will not be the one on the receiving end) and the fire crackers! I have always loved family gatherings. Makes me happy.

This year we did all our CNY shopping in Singapore. First year here and so far it's all good. Bella is in her new school and is adapting well. She joined Brownies in school. She wanna join her school trip to Taman Negara in KL on March holidays. She enjoys her piano classes.

Sheri have to take her S-AEIS exam in Feb 2012. She's currently in Hanbridge school. She love going for her vocal classes. Hope she passes her exam in Feb then it would be a lot easier for me, as their designated driver for now.

For this post there won't be any pictures. My camera is not working as well as before so I'm actually looking forward in getting a new one. I have my eyes on Sony NEX C5. My options are still open....still looking for the best deal. So if any of you have any suggestions please....please tell me.

Niways....Happy Chinese New Year everyone!
Here's an Ang Pow for everyone. Wishing you a happy and prosperous new year!

Family fun time!

We all love family outings. Be it just a dinner together or just a weekend of fun as the whole family.

Tonite we decided to go to Resort World Singapore for dinner. Chinese gourmet food. Like I always said, a picture says a thousand words. So, behold...

After dinner, the waiter told us that there will be a performance. Its free. So why not. Its called the crane dance. Everyone was enjoying the show till at one point when the wind was so strong...we were all soaking wet from the water. I call it blessing from the crane for this new year.

Then right after that, the security guard told us there's another show in the lake of dreams. Another free show for the night, our lucky day or what. Of course we wont miss out. Not that interesting tho but it's ok since its free.

We all had a good time. We ate, we laughed, we get soaked up and we are happy. That's all that matters.

So goodnite all. Sweet dreams.

New Year Eve @Marina Bay Sands

On the day itself...we were all worried that Dallon Cheah won't be able to make it back in time coz he went over to JB. Luckily he did.

We then head off to Marina Bay Sands at around 5:30pm. We stacked biscuits and chips ans chocolates in the car...all prepared to battle the new year eve's jam. As we head out...the traffic was clear. We reached MBS and found a parking space, all in less than 30 mins. (Makes me feel so kiasu all of a sudden)

Since we are early, we decided to walk around and kill some time. We decided to Kraze Burger for dinner.

Then after dinner, we went to the Narnia exhibition. Which makes us all wanna watch the movie all over again. Hehehe saja.

About 9:30pm, we quickly went out to the deck where the fireworks will take place. My gosh...the place is packed. The seating area is closed by the time we got there. But then luckily, Dallon managed to get us in. So we sat there playing monopoly deal and game of life for 2 hours.

The fireworks was amazing. It was worth the wait. This is the first time we celebrated New Year's eve in MBS. Both Bella and Belle were so tired that they fell asleep when our car was still in the car park (jam for almost 30 mins before can get out).

Happy New Year to all. May this year brings you good health, abundance of wealth and happiness!!!
