Ramone Azteca

Rob just introduced me to an 80's comedy routine by John Paragon that aired on Showtime way back. I can't stop laughing so had to share.

Be prepared to enjoy the next 7 minutes of your life....or most offensive.....

Book Week

Last Friday, Parrish was to dress as her favorite book character to cap off a week full of activities organized by the school librarian.

This year it was Scooby Doo. Can you hear my audible sigh? I kept asking Parrish, "don't you want to be a princess again and just wear one of your dress-up costumes?" I know what you're thinking....."common mom! Where's your fun?" It's just incredibly un-motivating to try and find stuff to put a costume together in Singapore because finding costumes or finding material to make costumes is difficult at best as the selection is very limited. Although Halloween seems to be getting more popular so maybe that will change in the future. But luckily we found a set of boys brown pajamas and a craft store with the right colors of felt to make dog ears, a tail, spots and scooby's collar. At the end of the day I realized one important forgotten prop........scooby snacks! Oh well, it got the point across and it was fun to have a free dress day for the kids as they normally wear uniforms.

Guinness Book of World Records

I've been very lackluster about updating our blog. We've had an interesting start to 2011 and I will update you all soon. But while I had a moment, I just had to share these pictures. A friend of mine ran into this scene a few days ago. Hundreds of Singaporean's gathered together to get into the GBWR for most people applying face mask.


This is quintessential Singaporean at it's finest!! They had to have over 828 people to win. I have yet to find out if they did it.
