Our niece & Easter Holiday

This week we celebrate the birth of my brother and his wife's first child, daughter Shay Yen. Our niece, their 2.71kg bundle of joy is also our parent's first grandchild. My wife and I are very happy and excited for them. It feels different now that there's another generation after us. Wife and I are still behaving like kids most of the time, fooling around, playing. I told her the other day, we're now officially Uncle and Aunty.
 
To protect her identity and preserve her privacy, we had to make her slightly unrecognizable. It's essential, in case paparazzi decide to shift their attention away from Suri Cruise to our niece instead. :P

 
 
 
Wife and I were discussing about food the other day. She decided to make something "western". Looks good, taste ok, but after the meal, decided Asian food is better.

 
 
 
On the eve of Easter Holiday, our intimate moments were briefly interrupted by 2 "witches" knocking on our door. It was the Eriksson kids, all dressed up and made up to look like witch. They wished us "Happy Easter" and then waited with big smile on their tiny cute face.... Wife and I looked at each other and discussed in our language on what we have to do now. She said it may be something like Halloween's trick or treat where we're supposed to give them candy. I looked at the kids, each of them carrying a basket, filled with candies. So I took out my own secret stash, well hidden from my wife, until now. Darn kids.

 
In return, we get a hand-drawn card. Afterwards, we googled "Easter in Sweden" to find out what it's all about. This whole thing is so cute and funny, we wish we're kids again.

2nd week of work in Manila. Rice with crab meat, very rich and I'm sure sinful It sucks! One of the national pasttimes here is Karaoke. Locally known as Videoke. Every pinoy I've met so far love to sing. They acknowledge most of them are not good singers. But they like the idea of friends or families getting together to sing, and to laugh at each other, generally having a good time together. So, in Philipinnes, instead of seeing those kiosks for taking photos or arcade games, you will also see booths for videoke. Choose your songs, slot in coins, and sing away! Their local "taxi" This....is a view of one of the firm's office in Manila. They have a few offices, but this one is where I'm posted to. Yes, it doesn't look completed. Yes, there're people inside working already. I asked the locals, "has this building been issued Certificate Fit for Occupation?". They look puzzled "what's that?". This i...

Man...i had the most unpleasant experience (so far) last night with Bertha. Went to Plaza Singapura for the 1st time with it. Going up the car park, no problem, no need to pay, can go thru the gap. Looking for a parking space, no problem. Went for dinner, buuurpp. Went shopping for toiletries, groceris, see see look look, shiok. Went back to the bike to go home, bike still there, no twisted soul jealous of it, no inadequately-trained car drivers accidentally backed into it or grazed it. Put my stuff in the panniers, put on helmet, start the engine, and vrooom i go. Go down level by level until the exit where the ticket scanner is. Oooppss!! BIIG PROBLEM. There're two lanes. I was too fast going into the right lane. Saw there's no gap between the barrier for bikes to go thru. Look around, saw a sign "Motorcycles keep LEFT"! Dammit, only the left lane has the gap. There's a concrete barrier btwn left and right lane. And I'm on a downslope. Stop the engine, get d...
