For you boys, only.

Daddy went to the library and paid up his super long time ago outstanding payment for books borrowed and returned late.

All so that Daddy can borrow books for you boys next time.

1hr to Mrs Neo Birthday, 25hrs to 2011

Happy Birthday 老婆！

Amazingly, as the boys was rollin in bed trying to fall asleep, they both suddenly start crying for mama and crawled towards Mrs Neo, asking for her attention.

I tried to pull Everett away, but he's as determined as Enzo to have Mummy all for himself. They seldom ever do this at all. Maybe they know its Mummy's birthday and wants to sleep with her? Amidst the screaming and crying. We were both laughing and wondering if the boys really knew.

Birthdays spend after marriage is one thing, it may (or may not) get more romantic. But birthdays after kids are negligible! I don't even have time to sit down and eat Mac Donalds + watch the soccer replays on the TV, much less plan for some candlelight dinner with the a small live band on top of Mount Faber. I again ask myself is it because I have twins and that makes me busy?

I cannot answer that. I never had a single baby birth to compare with. How would I know if single baby parents have it any easier? Maybe its the same, just that I do things twice, like change 2 times of diapers instead of once? Feed baby 2 times, instead of once? But the time spend, should be the same. So...

2010 have been awesome for me.
Now I'm 30 (damn it). Not too old, but beginning to be so.

Every year, at this time, I will wonder about my career. If I should continue and work and stay in this same company. Don't be mistaken. I love my job, I'm an easy going person. But I love money too (so I'm in sales).
February, also marks my increment opportunity. We have reviews every year during this period and we get to know the amount we will get for next year. So... I usually get very emotional at this time.

Always feeling underpaid, but not too much to complaint about the job. So how huh? Look around for a new job or what? I always tell myself to wait for increment then see, then I end up working another year and then the cycle continues. You get it...

But I'm so ready for 2011.
It marks the collection of my new flat.
My boys going to playschool.
A bigger job scope at work.

All seems good to go!
Ready or not? Here I come!

Thank you 2010!

Nearly brought a private property

23rd - 26th December 2010

Ev.En's First Overseas Trip

Kuala Lumpur, the capital state of Malaysia. That's the place we chose to bring the boys on their first ever overseas venture.

Everything from planning the trip to the actual plane ride was exhilarating. We had no idea how they would react in the plane, which was part of the reason why we chose KL due to its 40minutes flight time. We also had no idea how they will sleep in the hotel. But everything was organized and only on the last day when the boys finally got used to the bed, we are already packed and heading home.

We went to KLCC, had lunch at Imbi Palace, went shopping at Mid Valley, had Klang Ba Kut Teh for breakfast and had cakes from the hotel every night for supper!

Even went to see a show unit!
SGD 300k+ and you can get a spanking brand new semiD. 2 levels, with a parking pouch, fully tiled, dry and wet kitchen, a small side yard, full glass MBR window. Just need to pay RM 10k upfront! Somemore can take a 30years installment.

Imagine buying one and owning a landed property in Malaysia, can drive there over the weekend and treat it like a chalet. 哇靠！爽爆了！

To add to the benefits, property will increase in valuation. I may be making money in the process.

Mrs Neo: You like ah?
Mr Neo: Like la, its so 華數. So big leh the house, somemore can stay near Leo & Shuben.有照應嗯.

Seriously. If I had extra money. Why not eh?
