Rescue, Rehab, Release, Reunion.


28th June 2016

Colin said he cried a little when Dory was sad.

Kiki said her tears did not roll, they just filled her eyes.

The kids learn about Marine Life's Rescue, Rehab, Release;
emotions relating to Lost & Reunion.

About non-physical disability, about having "heart", about not everyone needs to have a driven plan (that is, highly motivated driven plans are overrated), about escaping from people, about escaping from oneself.

Up to speed


Okay, so I'm up to speed today. This is me, today.

Hair as short as Kiki's.


May I have the courage to embrace the uncountable white hair that have sprouted unknowingly.
 
May I feel less disheartened about my aging.

May I regain faith in life amidst challenging times.

May I remember that all I've prayed for have materialised.

May I want less of what I do not have.

May I be grateful for that I have.

KiCo loves these yogurt, rich and creamy.

 You might see many white pixels on the ocean print-- those are postage size pictures of all sorts of Ships, Junk Boats, Vessels; ancient and modern ones. This stays true to how I feel art should be, that is-- whether viewed from near or afar, it should be "有看头”, that is, if it were a painting, the medium used or the strokes of the brushes or the techniques should be "有看头” when viewed near. Although this is not a piece of painting, it embraced this principal, which is okay lah, nice to know it.








 Postcards displaying a plain Door.
Freehand sketch or paste stickers to decorate your corridor. The museum ran out of those stickers, unfortunately, or I would love to have them. There's those "incense burners", potted plants etc and also the 土地公 prayer plaque.



 Combine the postcards to form a HDB block.

 The attendant at the museum gave us two cards, I took another one (since there're three of us).
We gave our cards to Kiki to decorate. Look, a set of 4D numbers for me to buy. Hahah.
She must think her neighbourhood is a Graffiti one. Also, a cat-loving neighbourhood.




Legos


 Kiki made "Chuck" (a bird from Angry Bird) from Legos.
Two male Chucks and one female Chuck.

 Colin made "parking bay" for his train carriages and cabins.
Mixed & match his toys.


Meanwhile, shedding tears learning a new song.............. first time happening on keyboard....

Chill


chilled with Bren 

June Holiday's Outing



 Colin & friends




As per usual, there were "homework" to be done during and after the excursion.

Nice cold misty air at Cloud Forest.


 African Lilies

 Rat-tail Catus

 This is a "young" Olive Tree at Cloud Forest. It is about 1,000 year-old.
The average age of most existing Olive Trees on our planet is about 2,000 year-old.
That's what the fact sheet says.
