I hesitated before asking her because no one in the right mind would actually give up their precious beauty sleep to attend a talk that doesn't even mean a thing to them! Yet, I've got the sweetest best friend ever who did exactly that. She agreed readily without even hesitating..without knowing what's in for her..The start of the disaster..
Cabbed down to fetch deardear at 11.50am as I thought we would be very late. Reached at 12.30pm but we're still considered early as they were still doing the registrations. Lucky for us! Should have ate our breakfast first (egg,ham & cheese? LOL!) Anw, after registration, we proceeded in to take a sit.
The first programme was the one that I found most interesting! In my mind, I kept thinking to myself, how great it would be if hubbee was here as the topic was "Be A Super Dad For Life" by Mr Jason Wong,Director of MCYS(I think). His talk was really informative and there were many interesting videos! There was also a story he shared about himself that really sets me thinking deep. I don't think I'll type out the story as it's quite long, but there's one thing that he mention that I definitely have to type it out here. He ended the talk with this :
"The best gift you can give your child is to love the child's mother."
How true..this is the one sentence that lingered in my mind even after the whole talk. =)
Next was "Baby Basics" by Mrs Wong Boh Boi. Boy, I almost fainted! The way she talk is really damn funny & the way she talk is like choo choo train! So fast! She also demonstrated some baby massage but it was all too fast so I didn't really absorb much. It was such a regret. If only I have a digital cam to record the whole process. =(
Then it was "From The womb To The World" by Dr Adrian Tan, Senior Consultant from Thomson Medical Centre. I wouldn't say it is very interesting but it wasn't boring either. Quite a lot of useful information too. =) But he have this blur blur, silly silly look. Lol.
After the 3 talks, it was time for refreshments. Like finally! Me & deardear was like starving cos we didn't eat anything since morning! =( Queued like mad, I hate it. Luckily deardear was there! =D Oh ya, forgot to mention that we actually forgot to throw our lucky draw no. inside the lucky draw box so one of the Abbott staff did it for us. Thanks!! And, one thing funny about the refreshments, they have more food than ice water. Weird? LOL. After refreshments, we proceeded in for the talk and we were a little late!
The 2 other talks that followed up was so boring! Me & deardear ended up falling asleep and we only managed to open our eyes when Zoe Tay & Darren Lim came in! LOL. They shared their personal experience on how they discipline their children and all that. Found it quite resourceful actually, especially from Darren Lim's way! =D After the talk, it was the lucky draw. I was holding onto our 2 tickets while dear kept fidgeting, don't know for what.
"0572...0572" Zoe read aloud. It was our no.! I told dear but she thought I was joking. It was until I showed her the ticket then she looked at me stunned. Lol. I was still telling her before the lucky draw that we are wasting our time cos I've never won any lucky draw before. I guess baby Tiffany is bringing mummy luck huh! =D Collected our prize and we realise...
Not very lucky after all huh? LOL!! As if 2 gift bags wasn't enough, we still 'won' a hamper! God! Lucky again, dear was there. =( Felt damn bloody guilty cos she had to carry the hamper all the way to Marina square as we were planning to catch a movie. I still remember how much dear hated to carry heavy things! Back in Sec 1 when both of us were in express stream, we would always trick each other to carry our books as it was really damn heavy! Hard to expect dear would be so willing to carry something heavier than our books now.. =( I feel like crying again liao.
This was what she carried all the way from Raffles City to Marina Square. Actually it wasn't THAT bad..all some body's fault! Wanted to eat Japanese Cuisine nvm, still volunteered to show the way! & worst, can't even rmb which Japanese restaurant it is. & after walking for an hour, still dare to say the same thing, "I know where, I know where! This time I confirm!" So after walking for very very long, we realised it was actually SAKAE! LOL. That idiot is me la ok. Dear's face was like totally pissed off. I think she felt like killing me. LOL!!!
After awhile, she managed to calm down(LUCKY!). Maybe because got food! Heehee. Had a really good dinner, chit-chatting with dear. It's been such a long time! =D After dinner, we caught Alice In The Wonderland 3D. It was my first 3D show, made me so nauseous. =( Personally I found the show not bad, except the storyline is quite slow. After the show dear told me that she was actually sleeping throughout! WTH! LOL. But can't blame her too, it's been a long day. Moreover, she don't know the story about Alice In The Wonderland. Lol. So cute ah she!
Anw, after the show, we walked down the stairs and suddenly we heard a lot of people screaming! Looked opposite and this was what we saw! I guess it's some superstar but can't really see who it is. But I can say, those people are really mad one lor!
