阳阳: mama is it ur feet pain

Meimei: yes my foot is painful

阳阳: so you cannot walk?

Meimei: yes cannot walk

阳阳: then can you roll on to my bed?

Fun At East Coast Park

We have a rare outing to east coast park today. To spice things up we brought the bicycles so they can cycle on the riding track. They didn't ride long though as they were more interested in the playground and swing. 阳阳 wanted to play in the sand but we were not prepared for that. Still, they had lots of fun and I'm pretty sure they'll be asking to come again very often.

Summoners War: First LD Nat5 + Bonus

I've been saving for the last 2 months for a summoning session once the new units are released. I didn't get any of the new Omniyouji but I did get my first LD Nat5 off 8 Light & dark scrolls - a shiny dark omniyouji. And then a shocker LD5 off 2 scrolls on an alternate account ... one where I cannot play with the Nat5  *sobz.

I immediately built it up with full +15 runes and artifacts and even fully skilled with devilmons. Turns out its a lacklustre unit, mainly for guild war or siege offence against tanky teams only. Sigh ... if only I had pulled the other LD unit on my main.

I have the Dark Desert Queen awakened but leaving it for display at Lv1. It's a 2-3* only account so I can't play with it. Maybe one day if I complete all the mission and achieve SSS in all the dungeons with 2-3* only units, I may consider using my Nat5s. But for now I can only admire the beautiful queen.

New Potty Spot

阳阳 has a living room potty spot that he goes to every time he wants to poop. Its at the corner of the living room and he would pull a chair or basket to cover the front, like as if he was going to the toilet.

These days he has a new spot in the bedroom. I think it was borne out of times when he wants to poop in the middle of the night.

Again he will pull something to cover the 'entrance'. It's so cute watching him mimic a toilet setting. I kinda like and encourage that he does this instead of simply pooping anywhere he likes. I remember 萱萱 trying to poop in the middle of the walkway at Vivocity years ago. That doesn't happen with 阳阳, he'll have to find a quiet corner to do his business.

Children Art: Paper Roll Unicorns

CNY weekend so we are not going anywhere, especially with all the Covid control measures. I think Meimei has been planning it for awhile since it requires used toilet rolls. 

The kids were naturally excited with the opportunity to get their hands dirty. They made a mess in the study room but it's totally worth it to see their glee and raised eyebrows when they complete their unicorns.

CNY 2021

This year was a simple CNY. Due to Covid-19 restrictions, each household can only have 8 visitors in a day ... which is GREAT! No need to run around the island meeting distant relatives I see only once a year. It's just Ah Gong, Ah Ma and Nyaong Nyama. Swee!

Not sure how Meimei was able to get the kids to pose like those clothing adverts you see in 8 days magazines in the photo above. But they sure look lovely in their CNY outfits. 

So glad we have a quiet CNY. Can we have it the same again next year ... but without the virus? Hehe.

阳阳 Turns 3!

Woot! 阳阳 turns 3 today! Meimei order his favourite fire truck motif cake for his celebration at school.

For home we bought a limited orange cake from Châteraisé at Singpost Center. It taste great and we managed to finish the cake at one go. The kids love it too and ask for the orange fruit multiple times. 

Summoners War: Blessing Dupes

I have 30 of the 82 elemental natural 5 monsters. That's a third and common among most folks who have been playing for a year or two. A blessing definitely makes sense here since I have 2 chances to land on two-third of the nat5 which I don't have. But Summoners War just finds way to screw with me and even with such good probability going for me I ended with both dupes. Arghhhhh!

I'm glad I gave up the game 4 years ago and stopped for 3 years due to work. There are people who give up their careers, their university degrees, their pension plans to get monsters in this game. It just doesn't make sense especially when you see such shit happening. Phew! I made a better investment placing my time at work and now I can enjoy the game without the pressure of having to make ends meet.
