This is by far the most photo-packed “Looking back” post. Continue at your bandwidth’s risk.
:hee:

1st August 2011, Monday
Tree shaker?
Kath said to me (while she was closing our front door), “Come and have a look!”
Have you ever seen such a contraption? I don’t even know what it’s called – basically it goes around the tree, opens up like an upside down umbrella and shakes the trees of its dry leaves. Save some time raking them at the side of the street. But hey! Never seen them in operation before. This is a first.
:hee:

3rd August 2011, Wednesday
Honey haul
Honey haul from Arataki.
Bumped into HollyD there and whose baby is still unwilling to say “Hello world!” Apparently Arataki is her daughter’s favourite place.
:P

5th August 2011, Friday
First case
First ACC claim.
My toe looked a bit swollen yesterday and it hurts a little when I put pressure on it. I’ve had this pain before but I never bothered checking my toes because I put the pain down to occupational hazard – being on my feet for too long in closed-toe shoes. It was definitely swollen yesterday (so glad I took a photo) but of course it looked like nothing is wrong with it today when I went to see David. So I showed him the photo I took yesterday…

First time staying over

by FeR on January 12, 2007 in monkau

I had some sort of difficulty sleeping the night before. It’s either because the bed is foregin or the place is too…empty/quiet. *shrugs* I could sleep anywhere – so it’s rather surprising. I dozed off around 2am or so? I don’t remember.


It was lovely waking up to their cuddles. *hehe!*


Not so good is that we have this neighbour who would park the car like this. No manners at all. Heh-lo? It’s okay if you want to park in front of our house, granted that technically it IS our side and we have the right to park there – but don’t so melampau to park blocking part of our gate right?! If I had a lorry…well…*heh!*

See no monkeys!

by FeR on March 25, 2005 in monkau

Oh! I got the monkey I ordered from UK. Finally from Siow it was passed on to Sze-Mien and then to JoFo and finally into my arms!!! First reaction was, “Eik? Why so small one?!”
*sigh*
Kena tipu.
He’s cute anyway so it’s okay!


One big happy!
*haha*
Goodness. I’m associating self with apes.


This is when he was the only one.


A smaller-sized addition to the family.


All together now – see no evil!

Gong Xi Fa Cai!!!

February 10, 2005

Happy Chinese New Year!!! Dad and I went over to U.Hong’s place for dinner yesterday – we had 8 dishes. YUM! Somehow it doesn’t feel much like a reunion dinner because most of them are over in the States. You hear me?!!! *shakes fist at everyone in US* Get your backsides back here in Malaysia! [...]
