Mummy and Daddy lined up a full day event for me today. Starting with a little party in school with my classmates. Unfortunately the school does not encourage party packs so all they prepared was a birthday cake, which was good enough for me. I had 2 servings of it, as did some of my classmates, much to the amazement of Mummy. We only stayed a little longer after the cake so it wouldn't be too hot for the next event. I felt like a celebrity as I was whizzed to the zoo...We couldn't believe it when we got to the zoo. It was so so so crowded even at 11 am. There was a snake queue just to get the tickets so Daddy decided we wouldn't join in the mad rush. Just so it was not a wasted trip, we had ice cream at Ben and Jerry and I had a ball running around and playing with the rhino and elephant statues.. When we left the zoo at about 12.30 pm, there were still people walking in and joining the queue to get tickets.
Daddy and Mummy decided I will not miss out on the chance to play with animals (which happens to be my favourite, evidenced by me waking up in the morning and singing E I E I O like it is the national anthem) so we headed to Farm Mart located at Choa Chu Kang. In contrast to the zoo, this place was very quiet. In fact, we were the only ones at the farm area which was perfect for me as I had the animals all to myself. I got to buy treats to feed the goats and bunnies and I had a blast. I also saw lots of turtles, bull frogs, hamsters, birds and fishes....
I was very tired after the farm and had my milk in the car and fell asleep on Mummy's lap as Daddy drove us home.When I finally woke up at about 5 pm, Mummy quickly changed me and we were out of the house in a jiffy. We were headed to Orchard Road to catch the Christmas lighting and we were told we could get free tickets on the Hippo Tour Bus if we could show any receipt with at least $100 of purchase. Daddy had a few from the Christmas shopping so we were booked for the 8.30 pm tour. Daddy and Mummy felt very "kiasu" going so early to book but they really didn't want me to miss the lights.
While waiting for 8.30 pm, we had dinner at Paragon and even managed to meet up with Enthia and Aunty Michelle for our little Christmas gift exchange. It was so crowded at Paragon but I managed to roam around while Mummy and Aunty Michelle chatted. I even brought my dog out for my walk!
Despite the kiasu effort to secure a place on the Hippo tour, we were not in luck as it started raining at 8.25 pm just as we were preparing to board the bus. Much to the disappointment of Mummy and Daddy (I was nonchalantly playing with the Iphone) , the tour was postponed and we will try again on Thursday. Let's hope the weather holds up then...We headed home and this was how I celebrated my 2nd birthday. Thank you Mummy and Daddy....
