Puteri Three Month's Immunization Shot...

Today Puteri went to the Medical Centre to get her immunization shot on both of her thigh. After the shot we immediately gave her some paracetamol for children called Calpol to help her ease the pain. In the morning, we went to Cobden Children Centre to weigh her. She is now 5.4 kg.

Acting For Experiment...

Today there was an experiment that needed volunteer to walk back and forth in a room while carrying a concealed item. It was either a mobile phone or a hand gun. I was given the gun to carry in my back pocket and aim it to the camera as if I was about to shoot. On the flyer it says they will pay £10, but when it come for paying, they gave me £20. £20 for 10 minute walking as well as holding a gun. Well it's for mankind anyway (research purposes).

Snowing again in Lboro...

Today it was snowing again here in Lboro. The school where I work had to be closed for safety reason. The road was covered with snow and icy condition made it difficult to drive...

White Loughborough...

It started snowing since last night and today it was white all around. The car was covered in 6 inches of snow. The road was slippery and the car had skidded a few times. Some say the last time it snowed like this was some 20 odd years ago. Now trying to wake up Puteri to let her play with the snow. We're going to the Queen's Park and take loads of pictures. Here's some picture of the snow today...
