Such a lovely city to many of people. A city that full of culture and history... No doubt many tourist preferred spot. I had my chance to visit this wonderful lovely city again. At least this round I cover some other location that I had missed out last round. The different this time is I use most of their subway system. <div>If you are visiting the city and having a smart phone with you. Try to download this apps Paris Metro and make sure you download the map. It does cover the city metro system and you can actually use it as a guided map to get yourself into any tourist spot in the city using the metro guide. And it does tell you how long the duration of the ride and how long you get to walk. Moving around with this apps really helps. Oh one more thing... It does tell you how much u need to pay as well :) but if you are on day pass or multiple day pass, you can ignore the fare recommendation. Day pass does help you to explore n get to everywhere in Paris. It took you from zone 1 to zone 5 and by just using your day pass ticket. </div><div>A caution is that your ticket is very small tiny paper, it's easily lost if you are not careful. </div><div><br></div><div>The subway system in Paris does have the restrain bar but it's not fool prove system as there r still teenager that just hop over without providing the ticket and there r no authority to stop them nor really take any action. Maybe it's just their culture if freedom. :) </div><div>If you are hopping on and off on subway one can easily see each subway station had different design on their wall. It does represent some tourist spot above the station. With that you can easily identify and hop off that station. </div><div><br></div><div>Paris subway is a bit dirty as compared to Munich subway. But as a whole they are still barable. </div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidFbfwaFWPpPEBI3z_ZiRzj803OLHbt6QUP3zN1vHU89Zgt4AQLptZN8YcnOgjBuhLfpBGg8rHSJJJmRaoAYrUtRmBVa9RZmWTJ9AZUsghH8wH-FEog-PlhP4GGCzAqh-a5owUxGAqRbg/s640/blogger-image-62062373.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidFbfwaFWPpPEBI3z_ZiRzj803OLHbt6QUP3zN1vHU89Zgt4AQLptZN8YcnOgjBuhLfpBGg8rHSJJJmRaoAYrUtRmBVa9RZmWTJ9AZUsghH8wH-FEog-PlhP4GGCzAqh-a5owUxGAqRbg/s640/blogger-image-62062373.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVqvaXmunKR5DjJdOefelzyCFSY-w8aRltr0mn1BDA_-xoqIVb90Lb7ThRwVD2nehhh6AfJPDec0T6N0qaYPNzxMeDGP2lOwOdDKJMxwk4dshF_hE1YXVdNIDBySyje6fayDqWLeUP4cE/s640/blogger-image-1312429503.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVqvaXmunKR5DjJdOefelzyCFSY-w8aRltr0mn1BDA_-xoqIVb90Lb7ThRwVD2nehhh6AfJPDec0T6N0qaYPNzxMeDGP2lOwOdDKJMxwk4dshF_hE1YXVdNIDBySyje6fayDqWLeUP4cE/s640/blogger-image-1312429503.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdP_C8r7WQT_PTkuC4oWNdWJPFwPLEVUW89BjFj3N_StRZQAZZEgDxWgrilsNcMlHyxr9bETs0kT5OuYw3rpGweuF2p_XntFVl5KUA5UbXkN26xd7lpi3fvPYhXIRmiATNV9U1DDlbrA4/s640/blogger-image--695667746.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdP_C8r7WQT_PTkuC4oWNdWJPFwPLEVUW89BjFj3N_StRZQAZZEgDxWgrilsNcMlHyxr9bETs0kT5OuYw3rpGweuF2p_XntFVl5KUA5UbXkN26xd7lpi3fvPYhXIRmiATNV9U1DDlbrA4/s640/blogger-image--695667746.jpg"></a></div><br></div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYO_ciNjZ-T7AafrBtvRMUFHAjtnpX_zNj0zoBgPqw_eu1GCttJwmBVLdUDQN7m0hw3Q2p-NmSLjXZOAknTumafqklbXiBA7Tjxquu2vS_J_fbQDGk9KoifKTJYvQxJVOhwmeMcJNYITk/s640/blogger-image--1937927646.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYO_ciNjZ-T7AafrBtvRMUFHAjtnpX_zNj0zoBgPqw_eu1GCttJwmBVLdUDQN7m0hw3Q2p-NmSLjXZOAknTumafqklbXiBA7Tjxquu2vS_J_fbQDGk9KoifKTJYvQxJVOhwmeMcJNYITk/s640/blogger-image--1937927646.jpg"></a></div><br></div>Adventurerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02292291831317623882noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162278540175344324.post-24256452507461440652013-11-20T10:05:00.001-08:002013-11-20T10:05:40.777-08:00Experience<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div>It had been quite a number of years since I last came to Europe. Europe was such a nice place to many people... The rich culture as well as the weather. In my mind they always been a nice place to visit. No doubt and they still a good choice for vacation. <div><br></div><div>This time round, I had the chance to visit Munich, Germany. I spend quite a while in Munich for a tradeshow and a nice city to be in. The first thing on my list of experience was their subway system. From airport to the specific location of my hotel they are well connected on the subway map. Fine :) easy I can do it. But unfortunately that day the subway was having maintainance, and they uses only German in announcement. Which I had no choice to keep following the map but by the time I saw the next station, it was way over the location. So... Just hop off the subway, and go they other side and hop on to the reverse direction. This time , I try to jump off right at the station before the one I need to get off. And it works! By using the subway map, I hop onto another route and get off and back on to the intended route to the hotel! Yes. And all went on smoothly. </div><div><br></div><div>The good part of the subway was they are really very clean. And it also very on time! Germans! Other than that, they well maintain their old system which look very classic! One more thing, the entire subway system are base on trust! You are suppose to buy ticket and walk in. There are to restrain bar/ gate that check your ticket. One can forgot to buy ticket and travel a few station! I got my day pass which helps a lot. As a stranger to the city, it's best to get that! You can forget about the place you want to go and just hop on the subway and let it carry you to the next station or any station you need to go. In Munich, buy the zone 1 day pass. If you plan to stay long, you can get a few days day pass. The thing I like about their ticket course was it gives you language to select and they also have Event pass which u get to the event from your location and a fix price throughout the event period. Cool huh? </div><div><br></div><div>Compare to other countries, Munich seem to have a very clean subway! Even their subway stations! Will write more on Paris subway in my next post. But Munich had a good impression for me. Even last time when I was at Erfurt, they subway was good as well. Or the train system.

This will be the first letter I write to you. Ever since you came into this world 3 years ago, your mom and I had been enjoying your present with us. And this year mark the 3 year you are with us and since you could understand our conversation I think I should start to write to you. Or at least document down something ;)<br />
<br />
You had been a superb son and how much we love being with you. You are progressing well and we wish that you can continue the good work and continue be yourself and what God had intend you to be. There are many instances you show the good character that surprises me and mom, we really want you to continue to shine base on the good character quality. <br />
Also you show love to your little sister. We were so worried about you when your little sister were here in this world. But you had accepted her well and you too adapt well with her. I still remember seeing you first few weeks loving her caring for her, even in the middle of the night when you were sound asleep but you hear her cry and you jump out of your bed and went over to pat her telling her you were there and ask her not to cry. Also many times you explain to others about why your sister cry (many times due to teething ) but that really release alot of our worry about you. You seem taking up big brother role quite well. <br />
<br />
Ever since little sister were here we enroll you to a nursery ( day care) at first you think going to school was cool buy the moment you step into school your separation anxiety kicks in and you cried not wanting us to go. The first 2 weeks was terrible and it crash our heart seeing you cry till you vomit... Frankly we were almost giving up but you show alot of improvement. When por por accompany you to school, you seem ok and adapt well. So it makes por por so boring over at your school... Now you were so eager to get to school and every morning you keep asking today got school or not! waking up an getting to toilet had been a fast motivation all because of going to school. You teachers give good report of you and even sign u up for their year end concert! It was first for us to attend and we really enjoy your show at the concert. <br />
<br />
You grow up so fast and it feel like yesterday I hold you in the labor room in the middle of the night. And seeing the nurse clearing your lung liquid as well as cleaning you up. You didn't really cry when they did all the injection only 1 or 2 sound then keep quiet. And you only cry when you were hungry... Your present were wonderful. <br />
<br />
Now you r a very active boy. Very expressive , I pray that you will continue and grow to be a better person each day. While keep up the good work and never give up on things that is right and be determine to achieve it. Not forgetting God is in everything of your daily life, continue to serve Him. <br />
<br />
Love <br />
Papa. <br />

<br />
But as a whole it's rewarding to have them in my life. Day by day see them trying out new skill and see them playing is very rewarding... <br />
<br />
Esther had been growing up to smile more and Clement seem to communicate alot about his feeling as well as his daily activities. <br />

He is so active that we need to divert his energy to something that can drain him off. Sports and some activities before he goes to bed at night. Recent night had been challenging for both of us as the small one need to sleep but he still very alert. So in the end most of the nights ended not quite fun for him. He was faced with the rod as we said he need to sleep... But it's not the solution. So I try to get some help from the expert...tried to set boundaries without using any rod :) first night it works! He stay in the bed and by 1 hr later he was sleeping! We did talk and he was doing his own thing playing with his toys as well as counting and singing... Then the noise get less as a sign of his tiredness and finally before he doze off he ask for blanket to cover him n off he goes ... Superb! So now for me .... Need to make it a routine for him :) make sure he follows :) <br />
<br />
Below was what I got from the Internet:<br />
<br />
Step 1: Don't worry about ADHD and stay in the moment. Solve each problem one at a time. For example, when your son wakes up at 5:00 in the morning, explain to him that he cannot get out of bed until the sun comes up. It's still night time. If he needs to have a tantrum because he's frustrated by that option, that's ok. Give him a few books or a stuffed animal and let him know you'll be back when it's day time.<br />
<br />
Similarly, at bed time, it isn't his choice what time he goes to bed. It is his choice if he falls asleep or not. He may lie in his bed with books or a stuffed animal. He may sing to himself but he may not get out of the bed (or, if you choose, out of his room). Decide his bedtime (whatever you choose, make it no later than 9:00). Stick to a predictable routine that helps him to transition from the busyness of his day and reaffirms that you love him and are looking forward to great things tomorrow. If it takes two weeks to teach him your new expectations, so be it. Surviving a few tantrums and nighttime testing is far better than medication. And he's ready for a little more structure in his day.<br />
<br />

So more to come stay tune :) <br />
At least I'm a happy father for a night. <br />

Further more having a very active toddler really drain most of the energy away and usually by the time he fall asleep... Same goes the parents... <br />
BUT I got to admit investing time in their life really rewarding... They are so much fun that money can't buy and seeing them grow up day by day are priceless.... The joy that harvest can't be value by any money and seeing the smile from their face really recharge u from ur tiredness. <br />
<br />
For me now... I'm stealing some time off to keyin my thoughts so that it is recorded along the way :) <br />
<br />
Being parents r not easy.... And it's a tough job that need alot of multiple discipline and of course alot of patience... I guess I need to really think of ways to guide them. <div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_9DwEN961-Qp0S0S120EAhBXFEu9D6jA3KGXO1SDbbQ4Zy8nGx7tYb8sHDmFNCX5bxZiAbqpphmq2cQvyYftn6I0XmM6sogAhiCHQlYHtRYVjrxfq9pNrbY4eqzV9thVFxMDBFCbdnnk/s640/blogger-image-2086438301.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_9DwEN961-Qp0S0S120EAhBXFEu9D6jA3KGXO1SDbbQ4Zy8nGx7tYb8sHDmFNCX5bxZiAbqpphmq2cQvyYftn6I0XmM6sogAhiCHQlYHtRYVjrxfq9pNrbY4eqzV9thVFxMDBFCbdnnk/s640/blogger-image-2086438301.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh98jqGMRgZeiYHI0Cpb7r5ViCHyrFNBbu94r8DZcK1t78nrowsLnbBfjvVqoOpCqsibKcp1Sis7J0WpI04ln5uV46t0ELxPMGWXafCi4WrNM076uUtXnCQtI4uEE3MFKSMtKnLWrZs208/s640/blogger-image-1654502271.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh98jqGMRgZeiYHI0Cpb7r5ViCHyrFNBbu94r8DZcK1t78nrowsLnbBfjvVqoOpCqsibKcp1Sis7J0WpI04ln5uV46t0ELxPMGWXafCi4WrNM076uUtXnCQtI4uEE3MFKSMtKnLWrZs208/s640/blogger-image-1654502271.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8O-vm6tlqYZ52hgyTyv-6SvaWzJgdaHpYLLmTPKbwsEmFpZVfXqtWDfw9FcCjl27qvwKs97jPrLtJ19bWDJhsvOrm1LhGR1Z-VwIpzbc6_MWVelhTuYPAAPqGmPYAdnB7JVmpEazFLLc/s640/blogger-image--1710819891.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8O-vm6tlqYZ52hgyTyv-6SvaWzJgdaHpYLLmTPKbwsEmFpZVfXqtWDfw9FcCjl27qvwKs97jPrLtJ19bWDJhsvOrm1LhGR1Z-VwIpzbc6_MWVelhTuYPAAPqGmPYAdnB7JVmpEazFLLc/s640/blogger-image--1710819891.jpg" /></a></div>Adventurerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02292291831317623882noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162278540175344324.post-42338474578527484622012-04-04T08:53:00.001-07:002012-04-04T08:53:35.395-07:00It had been a while...With the new addition to our family, life had been a little bit overwhelm with activities....<br />
The boy slowly growing up in his own way that we don't want to miss a single moment. <br />
He start going to school at the age of 2 yrs 3months... A bit early but that's the best choice given the limited option we had... Thank God all turn out good till today. It was a tough but a good process to go through and we experience separation anxiety from him. <br />
<br />
Now Clement is having a better time at school and it also mean he is getting cheeky in school. His class only a few of them which is good as they are quite young n need attention :) <br />
<br />
As for Esther she grow really fast! Almost 3 months since she was born. Like Clement she is very active and talks / shout when she is not heard. <br />
Interesting right? She does hv my hair! I wonder if it is a good sign hahahha :D <br />
<br />
So... Clement had his first Disney show at Pisa. It was 50/50 as half way through Clement got cranky and he starts to be destructive. But I guess he likes the show as a whole. We did prepare him with a crash course on Disney character. He loves them now. Beside Mickey and friends that he know them since young, he also learn abt little mermaid... Beauty and the beast... Toy story woody and buzz lightyears ...Peter pan and captain hook... Pinocio ... Alice in wonderland... And many more... He had a great time there while papa had a tiring time hahaha :) <br />

Seem like the ruling party still holding a strong majority... Is that a sign of the current ruling govt will still take place in up coming general election? Or we are seeing a change in new govt? All depend on the people... Hope there r no money politic in coming election. And we will see the real color. :) will Malaysia still have hope? Or it is going to rot ? <br />Penang had been seeing change since 2008... 3 yrs past.. We see alot of changes in our life. Lots of good idea came out from the Penang govt.... Just if the federal react as the same... Malaysia will be alot better. <br /><br />I'm observing the neighbor country general election as well... They hv alot of new faces as their line up... If they got elected.. They going to be the new blood that pass down from the experienced ppl :) <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Adventurerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02292291831317623882noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162278540175344324.post-66006874042496041862011-04-21T23:33:00.000-07:002011-04-22T00:01:01.099-07:00A Long way...<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>it had been a while since i update here....had been quite busy... who are not busy right? ;) ok.... got to spend more time blogging about everything under the sun....<div><br /></div><div>so.. life had been roller coaster... and work too....</div><div>but i did took some of the time off to get some nice pictures....</div><div>below are some of it....</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div>I also did went to Tarbush to eat...

It had been a great journey of 16months :) it was really fun and sometime suffering Hahah :) I guess I just need to have enough mental and physical strength to overcome all the curve ball that life throw at me :)<br /><br />Btw I'm not old! Although I look like one and my body might behave like one... I guess I should restart my body building to make sure I'm prepare for upcoming more challenge that his young boy going to required from me.... I need to catch up :) <br />He had been running hopping skipping and crawling... Did I mention climbing?... He done those and more is coming! <br /><br />Again work and ministry had been packed as well as family time. I do hope I have some time for my own hobby as well :) <br /><br />Oh yeah... Clement had a pet.... Which I guess he got it from me too.... ;) he like the pet and get excited playing with it too! I will introduce his pet once I got more of the photos :) <br /><br />Here u go this young boy getting ready for swimming. He is a good swimmer too :) after so long didn't brought him to swim and once he is in the water he can kick and it lead to the direction he wanted. Not bad right? <br /><br /><br /><center><a href='https://picasaweb.google.com/yongschew/TheParenthood?authkey=Gv1sRgCJTkzdLf1p7lKQ#5586162608220310050'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwFdIWP37xlYU99tutV70Tt_1tDSxLUqqwTl8AkQieLc-hhm48u0fGsYC6284iNxf4UhQ2Mnb6arQpWRzKbvKaIjWT0CVUHaMXkQYMWNMwSoo0EE38YWaicp065nRxvqbpqW0t4bKkZ7U/s288/iphone_photo.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br />Adventurerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02292291831317623882noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162278540175344324.post-12036482078866909222011-02-18T18:56:00.000-08:002011-03-20T06:52:26.427-07:00Funny things that he doAs the child progress... Extra energy are needed to make sure he is safe. Sometimes when he walk with something in his hand hr never look at where he is going. He is so focus on the item in his hand that not know he is going to trip on something... <br />Few months ago, he is able to crawl down the bed and walk to the door.. Now he will use the same skill to access to those place that he need to reach which hv a slight distance gap. U will see him squat down, turn sideways, then drop his right leg until his feet touches the base then slowly slide himself down...<br /><br />Besides that he is able to respond when u ask him some question... Example when I was traveling... U ask where is papa... He will tell u I'm on the plane by showing you airplane with sound...<br /> <br /><br /><br /><br />Adventurerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02292291831317623882noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162278540175344324.post-73848356365172554292011-02-04T20:47:00.001-08:002011-02-04T20:47:10.481-08:00iHOPIt's not a spelling error :) it's iHOP not Ipoh :) <br />A place where previously I love to go around 10 yrs ago... It's international House Of Pancake. A place that sell all kinds of addson with buttermilk pancakes Another reason why I love it because they open 24hrs. I can eat whenever I'm hungry. I wonder if Malaysia would be able to franchise them and still make profit. Look... Pancake Malaysian style r roti cannai... This might not able to address well what the Malaysian would want. <br /><br /><br /><center><a href='https://picasaweb.google.com/yongschew/TheParenthood?authkey=Gv1sRgCJTkzdLf1p7lKQ#5570062251230632210'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiF79EzoKIrOCMR4vdICE7EUlj57QU97PcPMO8wmoeuuQzSMGInR-szheLWRBvyS7n1RNkM8rJ8p4EY_fCUVrch3e4vxeV_XDLc58Jc9DKZLFkgQVqXAUbqcZiBaL1pgunGbTa7tukStks/s288/iphone_photo.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='https://picasaweb.google.com/yongschew/TheParenthood?authkey=Gv1sRgCJTkzdLf1p7lKQ#5570062312229758722'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPvdAjB4IJJM5v-kq5aBzoHiUOG9j4bbz7Lhh6es51wmdZSxsbUrlThmLOGEwJk3pVAB4wwwWj6m1Zgqm6pc2CsWfBdF8NbPY2u987Dh2i6wixDxnZkZ1e90-jPexcinyBP68skgYGrrc/s288/iphone_photo.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='https://picasaweb.google.com/yongschew/TheParenthood?authkey=Gv1sRgCJTkzdLf1p7lKQ#5570062389912129426'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_X4Uzc8Qv4BSNVINALurAA21d3lYTEzlRI-ETc17aKAXN9WidxFQq7iEiC3KliyJJtDFB_C5U4I__UV5CY9l6zO8KdCWLfx-0NdLC4hfsR08H4lvjolWc0GFsWsY2pIekhbggNJGlcQk/s288/iphone_photo.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='https://picasaweb.google.com/yongschew/TheParenthood?authkey=Gv1sRgCJTkzdLf1p7lKQ#5570062461685090946'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5uWD2dN_ocoZIv084iO2LJTgvImWcgmbXNyFV6hIsTB0eYb2ybvQMrlKwc-zFTjhUCRGr9MMitQDi42-Ewe12O9uiYcw179mmHsQyaMNDeF8R7Hwg3oGUl-CPLe12BeAAow3bdfJX4Mg/s288/iphone_photo.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='210' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br />Love those pancakes n breakfast...

Kids r really fun. They have their own ways of interpreting things happening around them. They are cheeky yet lovable. Here I have all the boys playing! Yelling as well and baby talking just like Clement did at home. Seem like kids behave about the same. Some really cute as they holding the care giver hands walking up and down holding onto their milk bottle.. Some being carried around. I guess to avoid them from getting bored. This long 15 hrs flight make me see things that I don't really see it in my daily life. Clement had been growing up well, calling papa... Dee.... when he see me... I guess I'm going to enjoy every bit of the 15 hrs flight...<br />Sitting beside me was HBS graduate... Working now as a consultant... In my front was a single child family his son should be 2 yrs n 3 months sitting on his own seat where his dad and mom next to him each side. At my back another family where the boy is bubbling all Clement had said before :) I believe it's more on babytalk :) <br />A good chance now for me to observe how to handle a 15 hrs flight with infant/toddle :) <br /><br />Cathay flight wasn't that bad... :) <br />The kids were watching Disney channel so quiet and entertaining ... And some already sleeping... They r just cute :) using their small palm holding on the plastic Cathay pacific cup sipping the water ... With the light being dim down they are ready to sleep any minor turbulence didn't really scare them and they find it fun and giggling abt it when the plane start to shake...<br /><br />Some of the air stewards maybe not married or I would day they do not understand being a parents... Some kids just need to be comfort. Of course there are rules and it's for the child safety but to calm them down is not asking them to buckle up and sit there. And this steward was asking the parents to buckle up their baby hahaha... But it seem their supervisor understand that and ask if they want a baby seatbelt so the baby can be stripe in while the mom hugging him. Come on, he is just over 2 yrs old but still need comfort right, doesn't mean 2 yrs old can sit on his own and cannot br hug by the parents during turbulence. Proper safety need to be in place, that I understand, I believe airline did thought about this before :) <br /><br />So far end of my first 15 hrs flight. Tiring... Didn't sleep much as the chair seem to act differently... How I wish they upgrade me to business class where proper flat sleeping position can be done. <br />Outside temperature -6C... <br /><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='https://picasaweb.google.com/yongschew/TheParenthood?authkey=Gv1sRgCJTkzdLf1p7lKQ#5570061592878173458'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrhWAh-j5r3PrOgc4LBJOrfy5hYJOgLcFslT0Vuts_DlFtGaKLBPGEf1_bg-WjoIlnowi5WMEgNkx-uorElmis8DDLalRYhmt9CTD-zqpIvo-ZTp13MCbvYi_Nbx9yEfkd7o9DR223lVw/s288/iphone_photo.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />The kid at the gate.... <br /><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='https://picasaweb.google.com/yongschew/TheParenthood?authkey=Gv1sRgCJTkzdLf1p7lKQ#5570061651593078370'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVBmoLLVVIgkZrNaU4f_29WoIfhlKQ3wu6spquqo9sDdFUCwyGpfY-a_SvwwaSqfzRIfELZbjHDf-ZMPmPSfBp5nwq51oEk_6O5V7ROkzYDmqRirAFC1IIo0_d0n9xl6o9VB0h4sNtM9M/s288/iphone_photo.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='210' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br />Adventurerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02292291831317623882noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162278540175344324.post-44152888344035520252011-01-15T04:19:00.000-08:002011-01-15T04:19:00.892-08:00New yearI had been super bz since December.

Assignments...work... Business travels... All these had been taking up more of the 24 hrs a day... Work had more issues these days... More task to concur... More number to meet.. <br />My last day of the year I spend it at church together with my wife and Clement... Clement had alot of fun there... Just that the rooms are more occupied and he can't get his feeding and did cry for a while. <br /><br />He had grow up well... And I guess this yr he gonna enjoy more :) today is his 14 months... He is sleeping soundly beside me. I'm waiting for him to appear in a wedding dinner :) <br /> <br />So this new year it should be better than 2010... 2011 will be more fun... More things to do... And make it a habit of setting and achieving more childhood dreams :) <br />Alot of setup structure had been ready in 2010... Testing should be ok... Now is the execution... <br /><br />Stay tune for more in 2011 :)<br />Here I wish all if the readers.. Have a great 2011 ahead of you :) everyday will be a new exciting day. Meet new people.. New friends... Do new things and make new breakthrough.

I'm not sure about you all, sometimes I'm a bit scared if I didn't took the path I'm taking now... <br /><br />Also there r times where I look at those that having flying colors as well as at their peak so did I took the wrong path? I do amaze if their way of living and I look at it and what if I'm in their shoes... :) <br /><br />It's a fun process and a great adventure :) try it out... Got to caution u as some ppl might end up envy of things that they can't get.. And might end up tangle urself into self destruction... <br /><br />Life don't compare.. We live our life the way we did.. That makes u who u r and what u r... The purpose of life ... If we continue to compare this world is not fair... Nothing is fair if u start to compare as we only see what we see and we don't live double or triple life that we hv same brain or same judgement... <br /><br />So it's you that matter :) God love everyone and He had given you a choice that u made each n everyday. Choice that made we all special from others. U matter alot to Him and no matter what happen, He still love you. <br /><br />On the last 5 days to new year, I wish everyone here had a blessed Christmas... And a wonderful new year ahead. Use the remaining days of 2010 to reflect what had gone well and what not. Look forward to2011 and set what do you want to achieve in 2011. May it be self improvement, taking up class, go for special function, start up new venture, have more savings, visit friends, go holiday, quit smoking, or just a plain plan of start learning new dishes :) think about it and it's a choice you made there n then that shape you. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Adventurerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02292291831317623882noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162278540175344324.post-13739484106865082842010-12-17T20:08:00.000-08:002010-12-17T20:13:47.173-08:00Civilized Kids are Happier Kidsthis was taken from Glenn Doman newsletter<br /><br />I find it quite true for our current society... I guess... I got to play a role in upbring my son to be a more civilized :)<br /><br /><br />Civilized Kids are Happier Kids<br /> Do you sometimes feel that the social graces that you and I were taught to value are disappearing?<br /> Salespeople are often rude, or what is worse, apathetic. Teenagers often don't look at you when they speak and they mumble incomprehensible answers when they do. Little children are less and less welcome in restaurants and stores, but when you see how badly behaved some little kids are you can understand why. We are on the verge of creating an anti-kid society, thanks to a whole generation that has paid little or no attention to kids' social growth.<br /> There are many courses of action for mothers who understand the importance of social growth. Here are some examples:<br /><br />1) Teach your child how to greet a friend or acquaintance. It takes brief but frequent practice at home to elevate the cursory "Hi" to such greetings as "Good Morning" or "Good Evening."<br /><br /><br />2) Allow your child to rehearse greeting others at home. Pretend you are grandmother, teacher or neighbor, and allow them to rehearse speaking loudly enough to be heard and looking directly at you. Simple rehearsal makes this comfortable and easy for any child to do.<br /><br />3) Demonstrate to your child how not to greet someone. Try whispering while frowning and looking at the floor to show your child the effect of such a greeting. He'll get the point right away. Then rehearse the proper greeting once more.<br /><br />4) Create simple scripts for your child to follow when answering the phone or the front door. When others phone your home, it will be such a delight to hear your child say, for example, "Good afternoon. This is the Anderson residence. May I help you?" Equally pleasant is the gracious three-year-old who greets guests at the door with "Good evening. Welcome to our home. Please come in." Kids have a way of adding just the right touch of warmth and elegance.<br /><br />5) When your child is attending a formal occasion such as a wedding, concert or party, create for your child a homemade book on what may occur during the course of the function so he knows what to expect. Telling your child what kind of conduct is appropriate at a function will help prepare him for it and make the experience go much more smoothly.<br /><br /> A social growth program deserves the same planning and organization that one would devote to intellectual and social growth. As with so many areas of development, social maturity does not need to happen by accident, but rather in a purposeful and joyous fashion.<br /> The world has already given us the "Me Generation." Now we are rolling up our sleeves and getting to work on the "How-May-I-Help-You Generation." We don't have a moment to lose.<br /><br /><br />"Civilized behavior is learned at home from mother and father, so this is the best place to practice proper conduct." <br />From <a style="COLOR: rgb(51,102,255); TEXT-DECORATION: underline" href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=9xvrkqcab&et=1103959746139&s=21960&e=00132x5mXgxxhM0_l0Ol8hhXejmd9El44962Ndq49gBcNOsv_ljgfKDqD_sg8xE4wexpvrTH-ToipW9Pwtv_grulGxdV8f0KeKLI8c74s4Z9s43nxwv931N4b_2BJQGc016nDjmtnRNJg9o0ZFKsUpTgklnA4FKSJwnEQmr8iYCkex5BKGtxOrBuIWCxQqG7ypXHzTlE6slBIBSfLWuGzYrjubaKoMrvtnWR3fFdpR8-9k8SQq4Ab_gfTMw3jtIHrkR" target="_blank" shape="rect">The Pathway to Wellness</a>Adventurerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02292291831317623882noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162278540175344324.post-32352376849686661882010-12-03T05:13:00.000-08:002010-12-03T05:13:00.774-08:00DecemberAh... Time files... December is here and it had always a special month to me. <br /><br />I always love December, maybe due to holidays as well as it's year end.. Alot of events going on and alot of special movie ( in old days tv2 used to replay alot of movies continuous) <br /><br />Beside those I guess it's the weather... December usually wet n breezy.. Morning sun not too strong with dew that freshen up a person... The cool breeze feel like this is where life got to be at.. Enjoying every moment... Seeing children running around in the neighborhood due school holiday... And it's another "music" where the kids laughter symphony in the background..<br />Brid chipping away and swallow flying pass the balcony. <br /><br />I just love the peace at that moment seeing my child growing up day after day...<br /><br />It's already December and another few days it's going to step into 2011... A new year in waiting.. A new page of the story waiting to be review...what had 2011 install for us? Will it be as exciting as 2010? Or will 2011 bring in a breakthrough and surpass the growth of 2010... Or will 2011 be a fruitful year with less of the natural disaster and more of world loving ppl? <br /><br />Let's just pray that it will be a better year ahead with most of the positive news going to reveal <br />:) just too bad Malaysia don't snow... I miss white Christmas <br /><br /><br />Adventurerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02292291831317623882noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162278540175344324.post-68082641226579712782010-11-27T05:58:00.000-08:002010-11-27T05:58:01.043-08:00Life ConferenceWe attended life conference today and thank God that we did make it there.
