my amazing grandma had always been painting the ceiling herself over the last few yrs..

she jus dun wana spend $ n ask ppl come paint..

even though we keep tell her to..

last yr she fell down due to painting ceiling..

i happen to stay over on sun,
then mon grandma intend to paint again.
so i help la..


this is the before painting ceiling..
keep peeling off cos of wear n tear ba..
kitchen is super windy..

the paint...

its been kept for some time, not new one..

this round gona throw away once after paint..

me with the stick to "scrap" off the peelings 1st..

grandma diluting the paint..

peeled off paints..

after my painting...

initially use the roller n long stick..

then instead of painting, the sticky paint stick more peeled off paint onto the roller..

aiya anyway end up cant paint..

so i use a brush, stand on chair n paint bits by bits..

jus to cover those "holes"

at least look neater..

ah ma finally agree to find ppl to paint after cny..

i really have an amazing grandma..

she had her "medical" knowledge

she's just so smart n amazing..

she's an inventor!

this is her clothes hanger stick..
its been ard for at least 35 yrs..

30+ yrs ago, ah ma actually picked a tree branch..

use knife to chop off unwanted areas n make into this shape..

this "antique" is older than me..

n its still functional..

u can see the tree circle circle thing..

another amazing thing..
this is those bird nest cover...
1 is new, 1 is burnt colour..
why why?

grandma use screw driver to "poke" few holes..

for wat??

tada..

its for stove...

cos the original one is spoilt...

n outside shop cant find n its a waste to change the whole stove..

hence ah ma invent her own "fire cover"

smart rite!!

on top still got a "antique looking coin"

and it works perfectly well!

this is the original "fire cover"..

anyway after all the painting, we went ntuc to buy new yr drinks..

i'm so amazed by her tat at 84yrs old, 

still knows how to read the big price tag..

her eye sight still good!

no need to wear long sightedness specs oh!

she also went door to door (door knocking/prospecting) to ask whether anyone needs to 做月

she can be the 做月 auntie/granny..

and this was when she was 50+ to 60!!!

just to earn more $$..

i wld say my parents generation n my generation do not have the high survival skill as my ah ma..

if we go back to stone age time..

i wont know how to survive..

but ah ma sure knows how oh!

isn't she a amazing super wonder woman!

if she got a chance to study...

im sure she'll be a scholar!

love her to max!

hello hair 25/1/2011..

this is my hair on 3/1/2011

grow quite fast hor.. abt 2.5-3cm..

can see alot black black liao..

 --------------------------------

bought some handy hse stuffs at jap store..

 ----------------------------------

saw this on i magazine..
i think this is so true..
i contract cancer..
cant have baby..
but i gain really alot these few mths...


im even closer to ah ma n my 姑姑s..
last time although i know we r close.. 
but we wont really chat like "soul mates" etc..
nowadays, i'll chit chat w 姑姑 very often...
and i really like the closeness now..

also saw selina on news..

i think she's v brave..

cos as an artist, she dare to let whole world see her in short hair, bloated face etc..

image is so important to an artist!

it requires alot of courage to let ppl see her in this state..

i dun even dare to let ppl see me in my real botak/short hair..

i still wear a wig when go out...

also she took 4 hrs just to make up to cover her red face etc just to appear on tv for few minutes..

apparently, it is v painful for her...

gossip news also say actually even walking for her is very painful..

yet she take few steps up n on stage etc..

so i think she's really strong..

her hair is slightly longer than mine..

i wish her well soon!
