happy mother's day! :)


happy mother's day mummy! this is a totally unglam picture of you, but too bad. i don't seem to have any others, and at least your armpit isn't showing. not that that would be that bad a thing, because you don't seem to suffer from the Luxuriant Armpit Hair Condition which so plauges me. i have no idea whose genes inflicted me with that Extremely Unfortunate condition.

oh, the wonders of mitosis and meiosis. your only gripe with the picture should be that you look more like lukas than me, so people who see this will not comment that i have inherited your looks, i.e. you are very pretty lah, hor.

given my recent spate of emo-nemo posts, i don't blame you if you haven't thought it worthwhile to see what's up and happening with me here in beijing.

and rightly so, because nothing much has happened except the light in our bathroom finally blowing, meaning that we showered and had to use the toilet in almost total darkness for two days, until our landlord showed up yesterday with a light bulb. now it's brighter than day in there, we feel very strange when we open the bathroom door after using it.

also, our landlord brought some men over yesterday to remove the air-con in jinni's room so he could install a new one, and they tied a piece of rope around one of the men so he could climb out of the window to remove the part of the air-con which connects to the fan outside, you know that tube-like part?

there's now quite a sizeable hole in the wall in her room.

the temperature has fallen again, below ten, and i thought we were entering summer?
