Journey to Singapura
Yes, it was in Chinese - Mandarin, Hokkien, Teochew, Cantonese and Hakka, I think... With lots of 新谣 with new lyrics. There were screens showing subtitles in both Chinese and English but our friend here said he still couldn't understand *.*
I wonder if his brothers might have understood more... I had wanted to get the whole family to watch this musical but then I realised it was the Saturday before exams for Yang and Yu. Just nice, make it a date with my firstborn :)
It has been so long since we last went out together, just the two of us! So long that neither of us really remembered when, except that it must be before Yang entered P1 so that means before 2021, gosh... Also a nice start for Kai's year-end holidays - nowadays secondary school kids have looong break...
Before we left home, he told me to act normal.. But I'm very normal what... Haha! At one point, he was resigned to me holding on to his arm but only for a short while.. Ok ok, I don't embarrass my teen :p
At first we were supposed to head to Raffles City for dinner. But we waited quite a bit for the bus so while on the bus, I searched for a nearer spot and found Josh's Grill at 313. Yay to bus 14 that traverses town!
So happy compared to the photo above right? Haha!
Got him a drink even though he had his water bottle with him. He was surprised to hear the coke cost $3.50. Well, that's the price for beverages. But it's ok since it's rare that we're out together like this :)
Kai was so sweet - he offered me a nice piece of his steak. I didn't think the steak was enough - 200g - so I saved some of my chicken chop for him. Indeed, not enough! I had more than enough as I had - still have at this moment - an ulcer...
I think it's nice to have one-one time with the kids. They can be so different when they're the only child. And it's nice to see them on their own, not as one of three kids...
