I have been listening to some nursery songs since I was a few months old. Mama had copied many CDs from her school and some CDs can only be bought through suppliers for schools which were also more costly. So, blessed am I to have some of them, but in burnt copies. :P
This new version of "Itsy Bitsy Spider" was one of my favourites. Very long one compared to the conventional version, and Mama always thought it was too "chim" for me. But alas! I surprised my parents one day as I started to sing, or rather, attempted to sing along. The words, of course, did not turn out as perfectly pronounced as they should, but close enough. And amusingly pronounced that made my parents laughed.
Now it became a song I have to request to be played repeatedly in the car. Yes, even if the journey is 45 mins long! My parents are so brain washed by that spider now!
At the end of the singing, I praised myself, "Good singing" and had an ending pose I came up with.

Grace Kids at Great World
Uncle Aaron and Aunty Liz bought me a trial class voucher from Grace Kids on my last birthday. So my parents brought me to Great World City for their Rhythm in Me class on Valentine's Day. Having tried at Gymboree, Baby Jumper gym and Kindermusik, my parents thought this class was rather disappointing. The 2 teachers (one male and one female) of the class were first late by 10 mins.
They walked in with no apologetic look on their faces and the Indian lady, whom I was petrified of, was munching on a bread or apple or something. Most of the time, the two of them were having a good time by themselves. They teased each other and cracked jokes that only the two of them would laugh about. Papa said both behaved like a couple. Come on, we were there for a good music time for kids, not to watch a romance movie man!
Then the music they sang and played were so adults! At the end of the session, they picked up their bass and guitar and played the music of "Hotel California!" And asked the kids, like me, "Do you know what song is this?!" My parents gave each other the "Duh!? If any kids could answer, they should be in the book of kid freaks!"
Overall, not age appropriate and fun. For the first time in such a class I cried and stuck to my parents because of the very dark Indian lady. I'm not a racist, but she was not very friendly either. :P
That voucher still has 3 more classes to pick from. Guess Mama will opt for the open gym next time.
"I'm a Burger King--Princess!"
Before going for class, we ate at Burger King. I ate Chicken tenders and Chauwanmushi (Papa Dah Bao) and some onion rings. Oh, did I tell you my appetite had suddenly increased tremendously after my stomach flu? I had been always asking adults to feed me food! My stomach is like a bottomless pit now!

Papa took this crown for me only after I ate my meal. What a reward, I had been eyeing on it since I sat there. Thanks, Papa!
Happily wearing it by myself and walking and dancing around with it. Many people said I looked so cute. Heheheh...thank you hah!
At Toyota car show
We went to Suntec after we were done at Great World on Saturday. As we were shopping around, we saw a Toyota car show and my parents just went to look see. Mama's dream family car was there---a Toyota Picnic. My favourite was, well, all the cars! I sat in almost any one that they opened the car door to see! I was sitting in this Vios happily driving when Mama asked me, "Where are you driving to?"
I answered, without looking at her, "Nai Nai's house."
As I was concentrating on my "driving", a man (you can see the one wearing blue and white checks) from my window tapped on the glass. Mama thought he wanted to test it too, so she got me out immediately. But I thought he looked threatening, like a pervert and quickly got out as fast as I could!!! It was really scary to look next to you and had a strange man staring at you with a sheepish grin, right?! But no, he was trying to tease me only. Nice man.
