Of Cups and Plates

As I mentioned in an earlier blog, I have noticed how adults behave so strange in placing so much emphasis in winning cups! I mean, if kitchen utensils are so important, shouldn’t there be a Kitchen Ministry in our Govt? Their may involve cooking up stuff, you know...well, at least they have cabinets...Hmmm.

Anyway, as I reflect on Papa’s Man U winning the Champion’s League Cup; and recently China lifting the Thomas (who’s he anyway?!) Cup, (and more recently) Spain winning the European Cup, it’s really clear cups are highly sought after in the adult world. I heard there’s even a Cup that belongs to the World, and is fought for every four years. Scary thoughts…

After all, a certain Roger Federer looked pretty sad when he was presented with only a plate at the recent Wimbledon. And teams will always try to avoid playing in plate championships…

Hmmm….a strange future filled with cups for me to look forward to. For now, I’ve only a miniscule foretaste through my regular hic-cups…

Funny Pose Friday!

Ready, Aim, Fire...

PKR Roadtrip

Whew! What an adventure I had over the past weekend. Papa and Mama took some days off and took me on my longest roadtrip ever. It sure felt like a PKR roadtrip. P being Perak and Penang; K being Kedah ( I remember crossing the border at some point); and R being Rest Areas. What else would you think PKR meant? *wink* Some were proper rest areas while most of the time, it was *ahem* as deemed necessary by me, if you know what I mean. :-p

The main objective of the trip was to attend one of my relative's 80th birthday. Not really sure how to address grand Uncle Pak Leng (perhaps?), so I'll just stick to relatives. Aren't they all? Hee!

Being tired and all from the trip (actually, Papa and Mama looks more tired..hmmmm. Could it be me? Nah...), I will let pictures do the talking for my blog today:

My nemesis at some Gantang Rest Area. It was also his first trip outside of Selangor. It was really a strange rest area with so many shops with the same designs, same bricks, same fridges and selling the same fruits!!

I have arrived in Penang!! We stayed in Gurney Hotel, and this is the nice view from the room. Sadly, this was the closest I got to see the beach. :-( *hint hint*

Posing on teh hotel bed. Hee! Nice and comfy!

Terrible looking cot they provided. Papa and Mama were worried for my safety and didn't put me in that 'thing' at all. We did however found it useful to hang our towels though...

Striking a pose with Ah Kong and Ah Ma. Don't I look adorable here? Hee!

They call these birthday buns. My mental thoughts: If 80 years of celebration brings these out, I wonder how many more moons do i need to collect before I even get half of it? Sighh...


Met up with Ethan Koko again! But I guess he was too preoccupied threatening his Papa with a fork...hee!

From his strong vocals, I am predicting that Ethan Koko will grow up to be a football team captain or opera singer....but then again, this photo shows a civil engineer may not be too far off too. :-D

My dinner table...really nice food; Too bad I couldn't try any and as per my earlier dinner, I managed to persuade Papa and Mama to leave early too

Somehow everyone became very excited when this dish came out. Surprisingly never finish also....I wonder why...

My family and I! Here I am, showing off my shiny head instead of my face...

We rounded the trip with a visit to Sitiawan, the place where I spent my first 2 months in confinement. Here I am, posing with Ah Por. She was so delighted to see me again after so long! :-)


Overall, it was a wonderful and exciting trip. I got to cross many bridges - one that crossed a gigantic bathtub comes to mind as we approached Penang. I also had my first taste of jacuzzi when Papa took me into the hotel bathtub with this facility. Can't wait for my next trip to Penang - hopefully when I have full set of teeth to try all those stuff I see around there. :-D

Kick for Kicks

My legs have become more active in recent weeks. Could be the bad influence of football Papa always seems to be watching cos I have this tendency to ‘kick’ everytime my feet are free.

During my bath times, I would more often than not kick down the body shampoo bottle, especially if it is within my range.

During sleep time, I would sometimes kick away the blanket that was keeping me warm. Must have inherited this from Papa…

With this love for kicking stuff, I think I foresee a possible career as a professional footballer or gangster…:-P

To The Left, To The Left…

It seems weird but it is totally true. Although I can already perform the rollover quite efficiently, I can only seem to roll over in the direction of my viewer’s left.

So, any time I am not allowed to wriggle around, a simple bolster place at my left side will already be sufficient to prevent me from rolling over. Hhhmmmmph.

I can’t wait for the day I can surprise everyone by turning to their right when they ain’t looking *wink* Hee!

New Kids on the Block

I think I’m living in a baby booming neighbourhood. You’d be surprised at the number of new kids on my block during the past year or so. Approximately four moons before I came out, my neighbour welcomed a baby boy. And about three moons plus after I came out, the neighbour behind our house gave birth to a baby boy too! A

nd looking at the number of young couples staying around the neighbourhood, I won’t be surprised if a few more of my kind pops out before the year is over!

Sure sounds fun to know I’ll be growing up together with many kids with the same age. :-D

Grandpas Uncovered!

It is rather ironic that whilst both my grandmas are natural born model wannabes, both my grandpas are the exact opposite.

Trust me, it isn’t easy to get either one of them to pose in front of a camera. Anyway, since many readers have made personal comments that they have not seen both my grandpas before, I took the trouble to dig out these exclusive photos of both my grandpas. Hee!

For me, it’s no secret, with or without photos – Ah Kong and Ah Kung – I love ya both!
