昨天放工时匆匆赶回家，为了赶在六时前抵达理发师那儿。我常光顾的理发师是住家形式的，所以收费比一般店面理发院低；营业时间至傍晚六时。咻！还好终于在五时五十五分赶到了。按门铃。
“要剪发。”
“嗯。进来。”
“就剪这样的发型好了。看来好像比较时髦。”我指着贴在墙上报纸剪报漂亮女生的头发。
“是啊，现在比较流行这样的。”
“你还真舍得呵！把留到这么长的头发剪掉。不可惜吗？”
“不会啦。头发还会长啊… 以后还可以再蓄长发。”
拤。拤。 拤。 一撮撮的发丝从头飘落。丝毫没有不舍。心里只有期盼新发型带来得清新形象。
二十分钟后，驱车回家的路途上，整个头感觉上轻盈许多。

家里人的反应
妈妈∶*脸上的表情尽是 ！？！？！？* 怎么把原本好好漂亮微卷的头发剪了?花了至少几十块钱烫头发，现在竟然剪了。不是很浪费吗？
哦哦哦... 原来她替我心疼那些钱；现在更不能告诉她那是花了几百块烫的卷头！
弟弟∶唔…不好看。还是之前的漂亮。
儿子∶ 妈妈你不可以剪短发！不可以剪短发！
问他为什么，却答不出来。还继续坚持我不可以减。哎，都剪了，难不成要我驳回去吗？
指着自己问女儿，“是妈妈吗？”
女儿∶嗯，是!
幸亏还认得老母。
老公∶脱下眼镜让我看看！怎么剪得那么短？
******************************************************
同事们的反应
“哗！剪短发啊！好好看哦！挺适合你。”
“哗！你受了什么刺激？” 要受刺激才可以剪短头发咩？
“咦，还以为几时来了个新人呢！”
“哗！新形象呵！”
“呃！你剪头发啊？” 啧啧啧，不是很明显吗？不! 我戴了假发。
“嗬！看来好像只有十六岁！”

Baby, you are two!
To my precious princess,
Happy 2nd Birthday!
With love always,
Mama XXOOXX
We had a little BBQ party for close family members only i.e. my parents and siblings, parent-in-laws and hubby's aunt who visited us on that day.These are what we had; sausages, prawns, dory fish marinated in curry paste and kaffir lime leaves chicken wings and sirloin steaks. We had lamb chops, eggplant and garlic bread too but didn't manage to take any shots at that. Heh! Too busy eating...After everyone had their stomach filled with yummy-licious food, proceeded to singing birthday
song for girl. After we finished the birthday song, my boy quickly added, "Ma, you have to sing 祝你生日快乐 like in school!" So all of us have to repeat the birthday song in mandarin again. Girl looked so serious; I guess she must be awed by us adults all singing together for her haha! She wouldn't blow the candles; my mama accidentally blew out one of the candle while trying to persuade girl to blow. In the end the brother blew the candle for her. Brother is more excited than sister at cutting the cake.

Brother is more excited than sister at cutting the cake.The cake is banana chocolate cake. See the colourful M&Ms chocs on the cake? I added those onto the cake. Girl likes the colourful M&M chocs more than the cake.
Brother checking out one of sister's birthday presents. At first she won't hand over the toy to brother, then brother came up with a wicked idea by asking whether she wants to have vitagen by shoving the drink in front of her. Sister willingly gave him her toy in exchange for vitagen!
Everyone was laughing out loud at that!

Saying "I Love You"
The kindy which my son attends has special programme during the month of December (yes, the time when every other school-going children are having long holidays), which is compulsory for all children to attend. The special programme has different theme from year to year. In 2004 the theme was "The world of pets" where they learn about different animals that are kept as pets and were taken on a pet shop tour. Last year it was "Around the world in 30 days" where they learn about 12 different countries (if I'm not mistaken), the dinstinct differences in its cultures, and saying "
I Love You" in 8 different languages (I think so...).
