Traveling by car with my parents and seeing the sights and sounds of Singapore that I rarely visit made me feel like an excited child again. The project: to take photographs before the due time for my assignment.

So we visited places that apparently my mum haven't been for more than thirty years, this was followed by going to the new Marina Barrage where my mum and I fooled around with the camera and sending the pictures to my dad's e-mail account.

Taking pictures and listening to my parents talk remind me of the times when I used to hike with both of them in this forest in the middle of nowhere. Of course, this was followed by eating which is a definite must in my family.

I think both of my parents can be hilarious sometimes, like for example: my mum and I can have a whole conversation in front of my dad about him, and he wouldn't even know about it due to his lack of hearing. I was telling her sooner or later we all have to learn hand signs, which I did when I was asking him a question yesterday evening. For example: I wanted to ask 'is the Life newspaper in the room?'

I had to mouth the word 'Life' very slowly and at the same time drawing a big box in the air with my fingers indicating the room. I know: total failure. He replied though, so I counted it as a success.
