31 May 2021 - DSA Application for Javier

Direct School Admission for secondary schools (DSA-Sec) is a scheme that allows students to apply to some schools before taking the PSLE.  Primary 6 students can apply for DSA-Sec based on a wide-range of talents which include academic subjects such as Maths and Science, Sports, Performing Arts, Leadership etc.  In fact, some schools, such as NUS High, only accept students through DSA.  Javier decided to apply to certain schools that match his criteria through this DSA exercise.  Sometimes in July, for students who are shortlisted, they will have to go for some written tests, trials or auditions.  After which, the schools will then offer a place for successful applicants.  I wish Javier all the best for his application.  :-)


19 May 2021 - COVID-19 Vaccination (1st dose)

Tracy and I went for our 1st dose of Covid19 vaccination today.  We did not vaccinate earlier because at that time, we were advised to hold on due to our drug allergies.  Now that with more data showing that the risk is low, we went for it.  The entire process was very quick and smooth.  We did not have to wait and we were able to go straight in for the vaccination.  After 30 minutes of observation, we received a vaccination slip to certify that we had taken our first dose.  As we were on our way out. we were given a pack of reusable masks and a bottle of hand sanitizer.  Great job to the team who organize this vaccination exercise!


8 May 2021 - Mookata Dinner

We haven't had Mookata for a while.  And so we were, a Mookata dinner which we all love!  :-)


3 May 2021 - Lunch while Working From Home (WFH)

Just to share some of the "better" lunch that I had while working from home.


1 May 2021 - Labour Day Lunch at Nic & Tom @ Serangoon Garden

First of all, Happy Labour Day to everyone!  We had our lunch at Nic & Tom today and we all enjoyed the food very much.  Will definitely return for more......  :-)


29 Apr 2021 - Golfing at Marina Bay Golf Course (MBGC)

Had a golfing session with my gang in the evening at Marina Bay Golf Course.  It was raining over the past few days but we were blessed with fantastic weather today for our game.  Nice view of the golf course before tee off.  :-)


27 Apr 2021 - SIA Mahjong Set Arrived!

I've ordered a Singapore Airlines Mahjong Set earlier this year and it finally arrived today!  
This limited edition set was sold on KrisShop and it's selling like hot cakes.  The design of the tiles clearly drew inspiration from Singapore Airlines' signature batik motif.  Several aircraft components such as aircraft windows, aircraft engines and aircraft seat map are being used creatively for the tiles.  The entire set is so nice that I'm now a bit reluctant to actually play with it.  :-P
