2019 Week 51 Update

We’ve completed two weeks in Mumbai and have started week 3 here now.

So far, other than eating and shopping, we’ve managed to do some sightseeing also. Some of these have been places I haven’t visited at all, or not seen in decades!

This week, we go down south on a religious trip and also to meet my grandmother. It’s a trip I am really excited about.

I also realised that I have some medical issues, which cropped up when I had some blood work done and so need to show the results to my GP once I am back home. I am glad I did this so at least now I am more aware of what is happening internally.

Have a greak week people, especially since we are counting down to a new year and a new decade in a couple of weeks time!

2019 Week 50 Update

We are done with one week in Mumbai and so far it’s been a week of eating and sleeping. I think we finally got used to the time change.

It’s super hot in Mumbai and coupled with the noise that’s India, this does take some getting used to.

We have plans for next week which include more eating and also some shopping and sightseeing for the children.

Have fun people!!

2019 Week 49 Update

Hola from Mumbai! We are now in Mumbai for our holiday and the past few days have been great!

Though I’ve been waking up at ungodly hours and wanting to sleep early, it’s been wonderful just being here.

I am going to use all my research and curate a holiday for BB & GG. We are going to spend time eating, shopping and meeting family & friends.

Happy Sunday and enjoy your week!

2019 Week 47 Update

Though our holiday only starts at the end of next week, we are already in holiday mode!

S left for India for his Sabarimala pilgrimage over the weekend and the children and I are making the most of this week before we too fly off.

We visited the Singapore Bicentennial Experience, which was a super show! If you are reading this based out of Singapore, please do go and visit it. This multimedia sensory experience brings you back in time to witness key moments in Singapore’s transformation from as far back as 1299. As I understand, tickets are still available for December and the experience at Fort Canning Park is scheduled to close on 31 December. I’ll try and do a more detailed post on this later.

We also went shopping and it was a great day to spend with the children. I want to do one-on-one dates with them in the new year.

Last week I also wrapped up my work commitments and I am a real free bird this week which I want to use to finish packing, clearing the house and also work a bit on my blog.

Have a wonderful week folks and see you on the other side next week!

2019 Secondary 4 Week 47 Update

The O levels are finally over! The exams ended this week, GG’s exams ended earlier than BB’s exams. Both children are rejoicing over the end of the exams, preparations which started over two years ago. But at the same time, they are at a loss at what to do with the all the time in their hands now.

According to them, they have done reasonably well and if all goes well, they will get the scores they are expecting. I just hope it’s not lower than expected, but marks moderation works in their favour and they actually do better than expected.

As in previous years, this will be the last post under this series. Now that their school life is over, I may or not post more under this series and will talk about BB & GG’s updates under the general weekly update.

Have a wonderful Sunday!
