Very Happy Day :)

This week is a long-awaited one...

We (Char Siew Bao, Xiao Long Bao and me) had planned to do a short course golf game since they learnt that I had picked up golf about 1.5 months back. It's some sort of initiation ceremony for me when we played 9 holes @ the Executive course today. What can I say.... it feels totally different from playing @ the driving range and man, I really hate 'cow-grass', I also hate it when I can't find the golf ball on the fairway or anywhere else after I tee-ed off and the golf ball has got a mind of its own on the green!

But overall, I still love the game... it's challenging coz you discover more of yourself when you are playing. Experience it for yourself and pick up golf today! (do I sound like a radio commercial? hee hee)

Well, let's not go into overall scores since I'm still a noob @ playing (okie okie, it was rather bad; I stopped counting after my 4th tee-off) but I managed a Par 3 @ one of the 89m holes with a 8-iron and putter. Happy sia!!


The BAOs Clan - Char Siew Bao, Xiao Long Bao & me (frowning coz it's so HUMID!)

Night event was dinner with the family which we have postponed since last week coz mum was down with flu and cough. A combi celebration for Mothers' Day and my birthday... so I guess tis will be the 1st time I post my family shot here. Ms Clover had to work tonight therefore she can't join us :(

Whever we had dinner or get-togethers, I always feel blessed that we had the opportunity to enjoy each other's company as well as for God's grace and mercy that He has healed mum from her operation last Aug/ Sept. My 2 bros are doing well respectively in their lives and dad's, still, my same ole dad :)


do-re-ME-fa-so! - this shot is so funny coz, my 2nd bro is like my dad, my youngest bro is like my mum and I'm a mixture in the middle.


I was commenting to Xiao Long Bao today that when we reach a certain age, what really matter are your family, your loved ones, your close friends... I'm starting to appreciate that already. Of coz material things are nice especially when I was younger but now, knowing that you are loved by those closest to you and being with true friends who had helped you through thick and thin as you continue to stumble on in life is juz absolutely priceless!

Truly I feel very blessed that God has given me a great family, a soulmate, great friends through the years, a talent for seeing things alternatively and a career out of this talent... indeed, there's countless blessings all the time!

Well, going offline soon to pack my bag for my trip to K-R-A-B-I!!! Yeah!!! hehehe... yupz, from 1 beach resort to another.... I always love the month of May :)
It's so exciting coz we are going there with old friends, Char Siew Bao and wife (Lian Rong Bao), Xiao Long Bao, Ms Clover (Guang Dong Bao) and me (I'm not telling what 'bao' I am)! Will only be bringing my Ricoh along but hopefully can capture some quality shots to blog about. Ha, finally this trip is realising coz we talked about going overseas together for the longest time but due to everyone's own commitment to work and other priorities, this idea got shelved till now :)

Am so looking forward to another turquiose water, blue skies and white beaches h-o-l-i-d-a-y again!

Anyway, just a shot of my youngest bro when we were walking to the car after dinner :)

Iron and ball


(click for larger version)

Haha.. in case you get misled.. it's golf. Spent Sat late afternoon at the driving range with Ms Clover's dad, brother and his gf training and practicing on the irons. Weather in the afternoon wasn't as ideal but we managed to finish about 500 balls before rushing off to Carnivore for a incredibly filling dinner.

Spent Sun night playing for 2 hours @ Bishan Driving Range just practicing my swing... quite therapeutic to end the weekend...
