Bye-bye baby Teeth

After a long wait, I decided to yank my dangling tooth as it was getting in the way of brushing, eating and at times when I speak.

Sized just a wee bit bigger than a grain of rice, I almost lost it in the extraction process. The other one came off 2 days later.

I decided to see if I got anything in return for my teeth from the tooth fairy. So I placed it in a little pouch and left the pouch under my pillow the night before.

To my surprise, I got 10 ringgit and a lollipop. Now that's quite something from the tooth fairy. After 2 days I got the same amount accompanied by another lollipop.

Simple math tells with 20 deciduous teeth in a child, I've made 20 ringgit already and will certainly be looking forward to the additional 180 ringgit! ;-)

Lasertag @ IOI Mall Puchong

An epic battle took place earlier this afternoon. I've been yearning to get my hands on something like this and finally, my dream became reality.

The Laser Warzone in IOI Mall was the venue for the ultimate Lasertag battle. Folks from daddy's office arranged this event and I jumped on the invitation to join in.

Being the youngest in the group, I had to put on a brave front so that my size does not intimidate the adults. In the end, they learned never to judge a book by it's cover ;-)

We were led to a briefing room to be given explicit instructions on the know-hows of the game. The rules were pretty straight forward but the ultimate question was ... we're they ready for a little firecracker?

The armory was dim-lit, though the gears were a little heavy, I managed to suit up and was ready for battle. That instant I knew what it was like for our fellow soldiers out there on the battle field. It was my 'Thuppakki' for the day.

The sarge was not too pleased about having a 5 year old as his point man but someone has to step forward and I'm just the person for the job.

7 sets, 70 minutes total running time altogether with short breaks in between, I was pumped up all the way right till the end. Game On!!

Eagle? Kite?

Rukun Tetangga Appreciation Dinner

Monday's are not a good day for an event or any sort of outing especially if you have to deal with a grumpy dad who braced massive traffic to rush back.

It was a prior commitment so honouring it would be the noble thing to do. Regal House Restaurant was where this event took place. 2 minutes by car from home!

Coincidentally there was also a wedding taking place and we had a small part of the banquet hall partitioned off for our little gathering.

The building was formerly Parkson many years ago but the management did a splendid job in refurbishing. The indoor 'Koi' pond was a nice touch.

Slight delay for VIP's, though it was small scale, we had to recognize their involvement and support in making our activities throughout the year a great success.

The appreciation was also extended to active members of the Rukun Tetangga for their involvement and it was such a lively affair with everyone catching up and reminiscing all the activities ...

over good food!

Deepavali Open House

This morning, I woke up a little gloomy knowing that daddy's back to work tomorrow and I'm gonna have to figure something out to keep me busy during the day. For today, we decided to drop by Gerakan's (local political party) annual Deepavali open house.

On the way there we drove by the Courthill Sri Ganesha temple as it was the consecration ceremony at 10:30am this morning. The crowd was massive and we couldn't get anywhere near the temple hence I paid my homage from the car.

The travel time from Pudu to Menara PGRM took longer than usual as many roads have been closed for the MRT project.

We must have missed the welcoming committee as the entrance to the hall looked deserted. I'm pretty sure everyone was busy enjoying themselves at lunch.

There were some performances going on to entertain the crowd but I'm pretty sure the general public didn't pay much attention to it.

Folks were seen packing ... nothing new for Malaysians but I do hope it doesn't go to waste. I'm glad someone thought about our police force.

On the way back, daddy gave me a history tour as we drove by grandpa's old office ...

and Pasar Road. It was the busiest market I have seen to date.
