Baby Brother Turned Seven

Sergio turned 7 last Sunday! Though he's the only son, but he either is the only one who never have a big celebration for his birthday party (Chelsea and me experienced a big celebration of our birthday party for a few times). Usually we just have a small family event for Sergio's birthday. But he got a really oh-made-sisters-jealous present. As he wished before, my Dad bought him a new game console, latest edition of Wii. Oh well, I tried to play it a few times every-time he's sleeping. He tends to have no amiable behavior toward his sisters, he wouldn't share his latest precious treasure with us anyway. Boys! :S

We have too many game consoles at our home, welcome to our family, Wii

Had a wonderful luncheon at XO Suki

 

Birthday guy :)

 

Waiting for our meals

 

Shabu-shabu, I don't like seafood as everybody knew, so I only ate tofu with chicken broth

A tasty dessert, Cocktail Pudding with peaches. I LOVE peach like crazy!

Sergio with his ice-cream cake :)

With Mama :)

 

With his beloved Aunty, Sergio admires Aunty Carenina so much :D~

Left to right, Alfredo, Sergio, and Chelsea :)

 

And me? I was busy, babysitting Justin who visited us to join Sergio's birthday

Justin didn't want to drink his milk, he was so sleepy

Baby Justin is Aunty Carenina's nephew. He's lovable :)

Only out from bedroom to eat the cake muahaha

My baby brother is no longer a baby. Me and him have a quite age gap, 8 years difference. I don't know why, maybe because of that, he respects me more than anyone at our home. He tries to impress my eyes a lot, I don't merely like kids, I'm a loner, so he often get a little difficulties towards me. But I'm the only one who capable to cope with his tantrum, my parents couldn't quite understand his manners. He's a complicated little guy. Even sometimes he's annoying, but that's why we called them kids. They can be nice and annoying at the same time. Though Sergio had complicated personality to handle, but he's a genius (I don't say this because he's my brother). He often easily achieves extraordinary scores in his school without any hard work, he's lazy and play a lot folks! I'm so proud of him, aside from his annoying manners, I love him :) Happy birthday, Sergio! Jie-jie wishes all the best for you.

Guess who? My newest drawing, spent 15 minutes to draw this.

I was drawing and writing a notes at the same time. Where I drew this? Class :P

 

Oh well, do you remember Irene's blog giveaway? I won folks xD

And do you remember this crystal? I don't know why it turned out so 'short' :S

Anyway, my school started on last Monday. Back to routine! Holiday was over, sobbing :'( I got a slight headache for the first day of school. I was quite sick. But now I'm okay. And I'm still thinking about my story deadline, do I ever tell you that I'm an online author since I was 13?

Growing A Crystal

Hi, folks, just few days ahead before Christmas, I can't wait! Anyway, last night I opened my mysterious present that Ilona gave me (with her permission, I said that I can't open it on Christmas night because I'll be in Singapore and she told me that 'the present' is something that I may not bring to the airport, so I opened it last night). What was it?

A 'Believe' Crystal! I never try this :) Thanks my friend

I unpacked it with my little sister, Chelsea. We made the crystal together based on the instruction book. It was like a little experiment ha ha ha. 

 

Boiled water, glass bottle, crystal powder pouch, crystal tablet, stick, cord lid, flax, wish card, and we were ready!

 

1. Place the stick inside, fill the glass bottle with boiled water up to the line marked on the stick

 

2. Add the crystal powder pouch

 

3. Stir until completely dissolved

 

4. Drop the crystal tablet

 

5. Place the cork lid on the bottle and store in a safe location :)

After 24 hours has passed, we should remove the cork lid and keep it in touch with air. The crystal will grow and reach maximum size in 12-15 days (don't close the bottle with the cork lid during this period). I will post my grown up crystal later, probably 2 more weeks :D 

Few days ago, my friend asked me if I'm able to be a translator for her Korean novel. I said that maybe it'll be too hard for me to translate 300++ pages Korean novel. I usually translate Korean articles or sentences, but I never touch Korean novel. So I recommended her to my Sonsaengnim (teacher), after a few days passed, they made an agreement over it. Today I received the novel scripts from her via courier service (she lives in Jepara), I'll give it to my Sonsaengnim this evening.

The novel title is Tango by Gu Hye Seon

 

Few paragraphs

 

The author, do you know her? A Korean actress from Boys Before Flowers :)

Gu Hye Seon is my favorite actress. I like her since one and half years ago. I never stop stalking her until now ha ha ha. I knew she made a novel back to 2009 (they only sell it in Korea), I've been really curious about her novel since then. I had a little opportunity to read it this morning, I just read a few pages. I found new vocabularies and a hard grammar structure there. I'll have so many questions for Korean session tonight ha ha ha. Anyway, this will be my last post before I go to Singapore. Also, tonight will be the last session for my Korean lesson, Sonsaengnim will give birth to her second child in a few days (wish her luck), we will start our lesson again in the end of January.

Hiatus from 23 December 2010 up to 3 January 2011

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Bloggers.

 God Bless you all!
