Ooo-Jaa

Ooo-Jaa is the cutish sound we make which tickles our little baby. We enjoy making that silly sound, enjoy making that wide-mouth and silly face, enjoy the togetherness and enjoy the laughter. Ooo-jaa reflects my life's simple pleasures and a little snippet of my life.

Star by Bryan Adams

During a motivational workshop I conducted for the primary 6 pupils, I played the song 'Star' by Bryan Adams for them. I simply love this song, and I'm glad the kids love it too. This song brings tears to my eyes and helps to heal.... We all need a shining star when things get hard to take, so tonight we're gonna wish upon a star we never wished upon before

Here's the lyrics...

What cha wanna be - when you grow up
What cha gonna do - when your time is up
What cha gonna say - when things go wrong
What cha wanna do - when youre on your own

Theres a road - long and winding
The lights are blindin - but it gets there
Dont give up - dont look back
Theres a silver linin - its out there somewhere
Everybody wants an answer - everybody needs a friend
We all need a shinin star on which we can depend
N so tonight were gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before - (to find what youre
Looking for)
Therell be times - in your life
Ya when you be dancin n shit - but you aint gettin it
But dont get disillusioned - no, dont expect too much
Cuz if what you have is all you can get - just keep on
Tryin - it just aint happened yet
Everybody wants ta be winner - everybody has a dream
We all need a shinin star when things aint what they seem
So tonight were gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before - (gotta get where youre
Headed for)

Everybody wants some kindness - everybody needs a break
We all need a shinin star when things get hard to take
So tonight were gonna wish upon a star
We never wished upon before

Mad. Sad. Glad. Scared.

Mad. Sad. Glad. Scared. The 4 basic emotions.

Little Yule has learned how to act out the 4 basic feelings. And she does it in such a cute way!. When asked how to show an angry face, she will hold her fist, stamp her feet and sometimes even given a stern look. When asked to show a sad face, she will pout her lips and make a whining sound. When asked to show happy face, she will squeal in delight, and when asked to show scared, (or 怕怕) she will pat her chest. Little Yule also know how to show a surprise look, by putting both her hands on her cheeks and opening her mouth wide! Oh, one more, Yule even know how to 扮鬼脸!

I can't help but laugh and laugh as she pleasantly surprised me that she actually knows how her feelings 'look like'!

Lantern or Candles?

Carrying lantern or blowing candles? I think I prefer to blow candles!
