This weekend we are having our general elections here in Singapore. There are many different opposition parties contesting for the seats in various constituencies.

The past nine days there has been rallys held by various political parties at designated open fields all around the island.

Tomorrow, 7th May, is the day that I too will have to cast my vote that will help determine the ruling party for the next 5 years.

1. Have you ever had roommates?
No I never shared a room but I did have flat/dorm mates during University.

No. It was way too long to watch from start to finish. I only caught snippets of it on the telly and in the papers.

4. What is the messiest room in your house?
The kids room.  You should see the mess they create in it on a daily basis.

5. What is your ideal mothers day?

It would be one where I get to “rest” and not chase after the kids. A “kid -free” day where I can sleep in and leisurely enjoy my breakfast. A visit to the spa or catching a movie too would be good.

This week I’m grateful that:

- the new washing machine is finally in. I’m so loving this LG washer as not only does it save water but it saves on electricity too.

- I managed to witness Tiger girl reaching an important milestone. She is starting to crawl now at 7.5mths old. She can shuffle backwards pretty quickly now and I anticipate that she will be doing her forward crawl really soon.

- Our kitchen will be fixed up by the end of this month.  The leaking sink has given us problems for the past few years and we are finally getting the whole thing replaced.

My question this week
What food do you pack for a picnic?

    We usually pack lots of fruits –bananas, oranges, apples, pears, and grapes. Then we’d have some sandwiches and some biscuits, too. :)
