Sigh... last weekend went by so fast. On Saturday, I finally managed to spare
some time going to the town area with Hubby after soooo long... kinda forgot what it felt like strolling around Orchard. Bought a couple of books at Kino -- one of them's titled "Ana's Story", written by the daughter of President George W. Bush. It's based on her encounters with this girl with an unfortunate life whom she met through her work with UNICEF. Should be a rather touching story. The story comes with professionally taken photographs too. Hopefully I've time to read it soon. :)Went to HMV too and got a few CDs. Am currently listening to Angela Chang's latest album as I type... v nice. Lots of ballads that really move the heart. I think her singing's improved too... no longer sounds too much of a sweetie pie anymore. Also bought Sarah Brightman's latest classical album -- the first track's so powerful! It's got a gothic theme, and I was just blown away after listening to that track. The last CD we got is a compilation of Japanese songs titled 'Tokyo Cafe'... good for lounging around in a comfortable, air-conditioned area. :)
Also went into Gucci and came across this really nice limited edition bag. It comes in champagne and glossy black (too bad no pic to show) and the handles are so soft and comfortable to hold! No Gucci prints all over, just a glam looking gold metal label at the front. Size is good too, can dump things in quite adequately. Posed a bit with the champagne coloured one, cos it's really beautiful and can match outfits easily, but wah, too ex lor -- $3100! Hubby purposely psycho me to buy, but I know I can't spend that much on a single bag lor. Supposed to save up some more. But... really nice lor... :p
Anyway, here's a puzzle from the DS game I mentioned in my earlier entry. Hehe, see if can solve it... scroll down to the end of this entry to check answer:
Mice are famous for their ability to multiply at breakneck speeds. The type of mouse we have here gives birth once a month, birthing 12 babies each time. Baby mice mature and can give birth two months after they are born.
You picked up one of these darling baby mice at the pet shop and brought it home the day after it was born. In 10 months from now, how many mice will you have?
Well? Easy or not? Hehe... both Hubby and I took some time to solve this, then ended up with the same kind of reaction after realising the answer. Anyway, speaking of babies, today through SMS, I found out from Doggy that Ms Special's gonna give birth in a few weeks' time! Very happy and excited for them. Hehe, he must be sooo looking forward to the arrival of his precious little 'puppy'! Must be adorable... like what Hubby always says, which baby isn't adorable? ;)
Started having pictures of babies in my mind after learning the good news... thought of the time Hubby and I visited Weiping and Gary after little Gerard was born, and the time we went to their place to see the baby again. He's really very cute... hope the baby charm we got him from Japan works and keeps him safe and sound always. :) Also remembered the cute baby pics that HZ and Jess showed us on their phone before... I understand why Jess loves snapping pics of babies... especially happy babies. It has such a positive effect when you see the pics. Hehe. It's really a very baby day cos the episode of 'FRIENDS' I watched over dinner was also one in which a baby was born -- besides the funny parts, this episode's also touching in its own way. It's Ross's baby that's being born, and I guess I could relate to how Monica felt when she started weeping upon feeling touched by the magic of welcoming a little being into the world. Women who have given birth are really something, aren't they? *Sigh* :)
Hmm... maybe it's my maternal instinct speaking now, but I'm starting to wonder when I'd be a mummy myself, although yeah, I must admit neither Hubby nor myself's ready to be mummy and daddy yet. :p Awww... never mind, another couple of years then see how! :P
Ok, before I forget, the answer to the above puzzle is....... ONE! You can't get baby mice without a mate for your original baby mouse right? Haha... now you know why Hubby and I felt like kicking ourselves when we finally got the answer (after thinking through all those calculations... grrr...)!
