Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder

Last month big sis had a school exhibition at Paragon Mall. As in all exhibitions, a lot of the sponsors promote their products at the same time.

One of them is the Sultan Agung Eye Clinic, and they organized a “Mata Sehat, Mata Indah” competition. And the they chose random children that was present at the competition.

So Lil C was pick out coz she was there to see Big sis perform.

The rules are simple: 1) Take a picture, 2) Eye check by the doctors, & 3) place the colored ball at correponding colored bin.

But ultimately it all goes down to the child with the most beautiful eyes.

And Lil C got 2nd place… Yay!

A case of laziness??

It’s raining now, and customers are slow coming in, which then allows me to check back this blog.

Wow, it has been almost a year since I posted anything new. The last time this happened my sis called up and told me to “Update lah ko”.

So many things have happened in the last year, mommy has become a sought after speaker, Big sis goes to P2, Lil C won a competition, lost my blackberry, Smallville has ended, Steve Jobs passed on, and Luis Suarez signs for Liverpool.

Okay, still no excuse for not updating. Time to kickstart again.

Okay, here’s a latest pic of the girls.

Kampung Jawa Sekatul

Last thursday, Big Sis school, Daniel Creative School, had an outing to Kampung Jawa Sekatul.  Kampung Jawa Sekatul Agro tourism site with a Javanese theme ambience. Its located on hillside of Mount Ungaran, Margosari Village.

The school students went there with a bus. And since Lil C has been asking to go on a bus ride for a long time, mommy let her come along.

But upon reaching Sekatul, Lil C was ‘bus sick’…:-( probably because this is her first bus ride.

After the initial briefing, and circle time, the children are off with their activities. Straw hat painting is among one of them.

 

 

 

They also had a go at fishing at the pond and also walk through the wet, muddy paddy fields. This is actually good with this, they know the process of where our rice came from. But unfortunately, Big Sis puked a bit because of the strong muddy smell.

Now, the fun really starts. They get a chance to bath a real river buffalo. The animal is huge!. The children really had a blast bathing and then riding the buffalo.

Every student got a their turn to ride the buffalo. On the left, the teachers are having fun!!

 

 

 

They really had a great time. When they came back, Lil Sis straight away asked to go there again,… must be the buffalos eh!!

Pantai Bandengan

Its almost towards the end of our lebaran holidays, so we decided to spend it at Bandengan beach, Jepara.

The beach tourist are higher than usual, all trying to make full use of the holidays. I can see kayaks, banana boat, and inflatable boat being rented out and used. I wanna jump in, but seeing that I have gained a lot of ‘spare tire’ during the holidays, I didn’t swim. That didn’t stop d girls tho. I’ll just enjoy my ice cold coconut and some rujak buah.

As I write this post, there’s a police sea patrol blaring on his megaphone to advise people to get out of the waters coz the tide is rising and its getting dark.
I wonder how they will react if there’s a shark in the beach!!!! Lol!

Happy Birthday Big Sis

Big Sis had her birthday today. Just so happen we are at Jakarta at that time, (getting ready for Denny’s engagement,…. but thats for another post) so we celebrated at Baskin Robbins.

We keep asking her, “Are you happy to turn 6 years old?” ….. but she insisted that she is seven (huh)!!!??

We Love You Big Sis,….from Daddy, Mommy, and Lil C!
