sun shiny day... at RDA!

and ladies and gentlemen,

i'm sunburnt again. haha. i'm bloody lobster red now. i just never learn what sunblock is for huh.

went RDA for the Sunday Funday with XL.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO many cute angmoh kids!!!!!!!!! Aud should have been there... haha..

at first both of us were tending the golf game - those small golf sets - 5 shots for $1. when it gets busy, it really gets busy. haha. i think kids are like that; they see people playing, they'll want to play too. then it was lunchtime, we let the boys go for lunch, so XL stayed at the golf game while i went over to tend the stall for "Ring A Bull" - throw hoops into 2 short sticks that stick out from a picture of a bull.

and the boys were gone for lunch for so bloody long that i think i was seeing white from feeling faint from the BLASTING SUN. then J asked if i wanted to throw wet sponges while he stood behind those funny boards with holes at where your head and hands are to be. and i was so desperate to get water over my head that i told him, "I WANT TO GET HIT WITH WATER ON MY HEAD!"

and of course he was happy to oblige. :) That guy gave quite a few direct hits on my face. bloody good shot. but the water felt like lifesaver lah, so i'm not complaining. so when i was feeling better, of course must have my revenge. HEH. but i'm a lousy shot lah. damn.

but he's very game to get hit. haha. and he's very good with the kids. they had real fun trying to hit him. haha. and he'll try to 暗算 me and XL by trying to throw at us when we don't notice. and he really very 不客气 to pour water over my head, even used the dirty sponge wipe my face, still dare to say it's senior-junior bonding. HAHA. EEEDIOT. so of course i gave him a nice dirty water face wipe too, just for reciprocation. but hey, really saw a couple of seniors from J's batch - ZW and HM, and also saw a couple of juniors from the '02 batch :)

oh and there was this group of kids speaking German, so when one of them came to play again with hoops when i was tending the stall, i asked him "Noch einmal?" and he said "Ja." most naturally. :) Noch einmal means one more time.

and the young angmoh kids are so game for everything. they actually quite enjoy getting hit by the wet sponges too. haha. and their parents are really game too, to get hit by their little boys and girls with the sponges. :) and it's really nice to see how they dish out encouragement generously when their kids are trying.. "good try!" "Close one!" "Almost there!" "Nice shot!"

another look at possible parenting styles. :)
