Our day out with friends

20 September 20084 Comments

I find it almost hard to believe that it’s been FOURTEEN years since I last sat for my high school exams. The time when I said bye to my all-girls school in Perth and started my University days.

One of the girls whom I hung out with a lot during those growing up days is Cath, AND today the kids and I (Wilson’s overseas) met up with her, her fiance Ben – who’re in Singapore only for a couple of days – and a few other friends!

The kids behaved relatively okay throughout the day, of course there’re cranky moments here and there too at times, but mostly they kept themselves occupied with some colouring, scribbling, drawing, walking about, AND taking photos of everyone with my Ixus! [eg. That top left photo was taken by Anya]

A nice and refreshing day out!

And to end the post, here I present to you Vai’s ‘photography works’, hehe

I chose his ‘best’ 6 shots (out of like, 30!)
(Btw, no cropping or photoshop works on the pics below)

Enjoy!

    Hi Jen!

    Thank goodness we now live in the era of digital cameras! 🙂 Kids can practice and have fun, and we parents need not worry about ‘printing’ costs!

    Matt is impressed with Vai for being able to shut down a PC. He is going to be mighty impressed with him being able to use the camera! Think he might force his daughter next time to follow suit. haha!

    hehe … iya tuh .. suka moto2 juga dia! Good thing I have an old ‘digital camera’ which we don’t use anymore (but it’s still working, just can’t zoom in and out though) … so he’s been using that to take photos at home 🙂

    Yup yup .. high school reunion is just nice ya! Hope to have a reunion with my old school friends in Jakarta towards the end of the year!

    Vai’s already shown his interest in photography, following mum and dad’s footsteps, huh? hehehe. very good shots, vai… well done.

    high school reunion… that’s the BEST. haven’t met up with my high school friends for so long. there are a few I’ve caught up from time to time. but most of them… i haven’t met for 12 years. basically since i left high school. hmm… wondering how they are going. haven’t got money to go home yet. so just have to keep wondering, hahaha
