Uber and Grab are good

Been using Uber quite regularly especially going to the airport. The referral fee system is very good especially if you go to overseas and you happened to buy a local SIM. Uber x is especially a good alternative compare to taxi since their booking fee is low. With the endless promo code sometimes 5km Uber ride can be as cheap as $2. We use Uber and Grab interchangeably depends on the real time price. This private hired car alternative has definitely changed the commuters' behavior traveling short distance. No more feeder bus no more walking to MRT station.

Trip to Perth without a stamp on passport

First time on Boeing Dreamliner

Day 1
Touch down and got our car Nissan Pulsar from the underdog. Reached hotel late. Nothing is open so we ate oat meal in our Quest apartment for dinner.
Day 2
Carousel baby groceries shopping and visited Kings Park. Bought diaper, rice and uncle toby Cheerios. The Chinese mixed rice is so yucky and expensive we started to cook rice every single day. Nando's is about the same price as Malaysia.
Day 3
Drizzle and windy. Went to Rockingham but u-turn to Fremantle ate fish and chips then Baskin robbin. No walking around due to drizzle. Ate Mad Mex in Subiaco.
Day 4
Rockingham penguin island free penguin show admission and shopping at Target. Hugs Breath is cheaper than SG. Bought Fila shoes for 15 sgd and Logitech universal remote control. Mad Mex again but with some kfc.
Day 5
Swan Valley Mondo Nougat factory, ate dim sum, bog a Vodafone 4g sim and city tour on foot after checking into Novotel. Perth people start happy hour at 430pm. Packed Ribs n Burgers for dinner. Cat bus is free. We took red line to Mecedes college and walk back to hotel. Played Kinect games at night.
Day 6
Visited Fremantle market and prison. Ate big breakie at a local cafe. The f&b service in Perth is very slow. Only 1 coffee machine, 1 chef to make all the order. Resting inside the car at monument hill. Packed some grilled fish from food court for dinner.
Day 7
Ferry and train ride and prepare to go home. Common ticket $3 for 2 hours. Packed subway at train station to scoot. The airport is having a makeover. Had fish n chips again and hawaiian pizza at long neck cafe. Scootimaus stewardess very determined to catch ppl eating outside food. That's their strategy to keep bugging you until you fed up and give up. 5 hours flight is really not easy with bb on board. She only slept from 9-12 on plane then 3-7 at home.

18 mo quantum leap

Between 12-18 month I don't really remember what new tricks my bb Sab learned. But from 18 mo onwards, her skill and behaviour development is amazingly significant. She can almost run, almost feed herself, almost sleep through the night and stop nursing to sleep at night. She can open the kitchen sliding door, walk into the kitchen and point at the milk bottle rack to indicate that she wants milk. She lie on the couch and hold her bottle firmly, pull the teat in and out of her mouth to adjust the pressure inside. She understand shower and walk into the bathroom. She understand her body part on her face. She can kiss me on my lip. She get on and off the dining chair carefully without aided. Colouring became one of her favourite activities. Before leaving the house she will point to the shoe cabinet. She sit still in the car seat on morning ride. She dance when there is music and stare at TV when there is motion picture. She stack up toys and clap to praise herself. She can do so much fun stuff and made me laugh.
