Family Holiday Fun

Last week during the 4 days of PSLE marking I took the opportunity to bring the kids to the park for some fun. R was in town to we had a great time bonding as a family.

The last time we were  at Pasir Ris park was back in Feb when R was down for a short break in August.

It was indeed fun for all as the park wasn’t crowded as it was a weekday.  We could spend as much time as we wanted on the different playground equipment  and play to our heart’s content.

Besides  having fun at the playground we rented bikes so that everyone could get a good workout while being at the park. Tiger girl doesn’t ride the bicycle very often and due to the haze we have had lesser opportunities to spend time outdoors. I’m hopeful that in the next few years she be able to ride a bicycle without training wheels attached.

It’s very rare for us to be able to do activities as a family now that R is working overseas.  I took the opportunity to catch up with him and spend some couple time with him too.

After spending the whole day with the kids it was our time together with a date night and catch up with some of our friends.

Looking forward to the next time that we can spend time together as a family again.

Learning and Having Fun

Last week was a busy learning week for me. I attended my first creative makeup workshop. The makeup artist  showed the audience how to create a simple yet interesting look for  Halloween.

Doesn’t she look really cool with the face art ?  The design was drawn on with eyeliner and eye shadow only. Impressive isn’t it?

This look is certainly doable and I’m sure that I’ll be able to recreate it with sufficient practice.

What is having a learning experience without good food to go along?

Fellow Mary Kay Beauty Consultant J and I had a quick meal at Sushi Tei before our class . It was great to be tucking into a plate of fried udon as it has been ages since I had that dish.

Both of us learned quite a bit that evening like how we can prep the skin properly before putting on such makeup and which colors complemented each other.

Besides learning how to do creative makeup we were also shown how to braid and do up your hair for the evening. I tried out the side braid the next day to see how I look at it. I wanted to create the medium wavy curls using the curling iron I had at home  but failed in my attempt. I guess I need more practice using the  the curling iron if I am to create wavy hair at home.

Have you learnt anything last week?
