Passport

Today was our second attempt to make our passports (the tree of us: Ko-ko, Mei-mei and mummy). We had tried last week as the both of you were on holidays. We arrived before the opening time of 7.30 am. It had started to drizzle, but we did get to wait under the shade. When it was finally our turn to pick a number, we were told that the system was down in the whole nation and that it might be up within an hour.
So we walked off to Little India for breakfast. It was very humid due to the short drizzle. We walked back after breakfast to find that the system was still down. In the end after waiting for almost 2 hours, we headed to the bank after being reassured by the officer that we would not need to take a new number in case we had missed our turn. We came back to find everyone sitting around.. meaning that the system was still down. We gave up and headed home.
It was a good thing that today was a day off for the two of you, since it was Good Friday. We reached early again today before 7.30am, but there was a longer queue today than last week. Luckily our number was 23. Not much longer than last week. We got to have our application processed before 9am. We were told to come back after an hour to pick up our passports. So we headed to the nearby foodcourt for breakfast/brunch. And then went back to pick up our passports. And voila.. we were done by 10 am. Phew.. now was have our passports valid for the next 5 years. Yay!!

Looks New, But Still the Same Monkey

As your ballet exams are now over, we finally bought you to have a haircut. You had requested for your hair to be cut just below your ears. But in the end, Uncle Austin did not cut it so short.
Daddy was initially very shocked to hear that you really wanted to have your hair cut so short. But after the cut, he agreed that you looked nice in the short hairstyle.
You were so excited as you would be going to school the next day (after a weeks' holiday) and that people may think that you were a new student. Well this is what daddy had to say: Looks like a new girl, but still the same monkey *grin*

Birthday Present from Grampy

We had planned to make a trip back to BM earlier to celebrate your birthday with Nanna, Grampy, Ee-ee and Teo-teo, but we couldn't make it and the following weekend was spent in Ipoh. So we finally made it and Grampy had a nice gift for you.. a new set of rod and reel.
Dinner was spend eating Japanese at a nearby restaurant which was surprisingly not bad.
Looks like it's time to arrange a fishing trip. Daddy is also planning to get a fishing rod so that he can enjoy fishing with you and Grampy.
