Saturday (II)

This week, the teacher imparted various exercises on Gavotte, and there was no time for any student to present their Minuet 1s, 2s & 3s. So we also didn't play Minuet 3 in class either, although I would have preferred to get it over-and-done-with soon so that we really start on Gavotte, concurrently Happy Farmer.

As the teacher was showing us how to pluck the strings (for two of the notes on Gavotte), she side-tracked and demonstrated the various sound effects when plucked nearer to the bridge, or in the middle (sounds like the harp), and even strumming it like a guitar. Sometimes she makes the children laugh with her exaggerated antics and I would always soak up these rare moments. She went on and plucked a segment of a Japanese oldie which was awesome.

 After class, it's makan time.
(Orchard road is closed every first Saturday of the month, so we moved to Cityhall).

 Next time we'll skip the kid's meal because she actually only likes the sushi. we could do without the deep fried chicken and iced lemon tea. I don't understand why they give tea to kids.

As usual, she would snake in and out the rows of clothes, keeping herself amused while I browse around. This time, only to discover her hair standing at its ends. Statics in the works from woolen clothes.

Then we went to get a present for my sis' BD
and another one for my Godma's BD also.

While at the department store, inevitably, she wanted a toy dog. She says she knows we can't have a real dog (yet) and asked if she can have another toy dog (for now).
She says the poodle's name is - 许星, Timmy.
Fancy lor. Lol.

But 许星 is maggot-infected......!
No lah!  I didn't inspect before buying, she has a tear at the leg-joint.... 

许星 is all fixed

 Present for my sis

When we got home, she doodled a 'BD card' on its paper bag.
That's my sis seated at a high back-rest bench with her BD cake; me and Kiki (with present in a paper bag (got handles)), and an excited Pepper- my sis' dog. 

 Continued on next side- Colin, Maricar, the Papa, and Uncle Ken (with a door behind him).

 Uncle Ken has a fanciful hair style.

Phuket- Shopping

I like this phone case very much. and it looks classier with tassels, so I bought the case an accessory.
(from Diva)

 

The silver plated will wait for its turn. 

 Very nice and may I say, they are VERY cheap ($16). So nice that I bought them despite them being a size bigger. How am I gonna wear them? You shall see.

Granny-looking pumps that are not granny-looking when they touch my feet. LOL.
They are very comfy, I hope they will live to my expectations.

 Sandals $11

 Wedges. $12 per pair. Marie Claire from BATA.

 One of those crystal studs came off her shoes and I've been looking for a brooch to replace.Voila! A pair of cream-coloured earrings will do the trick.

If the shop had more of these designs, I would have bought a dozen to give away. There were at 3-for100 baht. (ie. 3-for-$4) But they had only limited nicer designs.

 From Diva.

 Pocket-size hair cuticles, great for use when traveling or outdoors.

Inspiration........................................

Shades Galore

(The recent lag in blogging is due to my PC's inability in detecting the iPhone after updating iOS. Finally relented and installed iTunes on my PC in order to access the photos. So, ya, thanks for coming back.)

Okay, shades galore! 
I have been a long-time user of sunglasses but I have never indulged in getting any expensive pairs.
All I care about is it being polarized, and the pioneer polarized ones were mostly used by fishing and golfing enthusiasts sold over Royal Sporting House which wasn't that expensive considering its unsung effectiveness and benefits. Most fashion brands did not catch on with polarizing their lens even until now. But Oakley did. So now,,,, I have no reasons wearing fisherman's shades! LOVL. Ha2.

Still, I didn't jump right in to get them when I saw them.  Instead, I tong banged my colleague who goes to the OTC show at Houston yearly to get them for me. Effectively saving $800 for me, how nice!
They came just in time for Bren's BD gift last Sunday, and of course three lovely pairs for me. (grin from ear to ear).
 

How to Catch a Star - drama

 She's in such high spirits, game enough to pose for photo-taking.

The production was a little slow but the kids enjoyed it. Children, being children are quite easy to engage in interactive play. Kiki enjoyed the show quite a bit, and asked to return for more. I guess we'll keep a lookout, the next one we've got in the pipeline (in June), will include Colin =)

 Dinner at a Sushi bar at Cathay Building.

Plus new ZAPI canvas loafers that spoke Zen!
