Today's Saturday and also, Renee's school's sports's day!
We left home at around 9am(a good half hour later than what we've originally planned for ). We got there before 9:30am and the carparks(the venue's and the nearby swimming complex's) were already full, so daddy had to drop us first and we went to collect our door gifts and register our coupon nos. for the lucky drawy, whilst he went in search of a parking lot.
This appeared to be more like a carnival or a 'family day' rather than a sports day! - there weren't any sports competition at all. When daddy caught up with us, we were kinda 'lost' and we headed to the field instead. Saw Renee's classmate and his mommy and she told us that we could still sign up for the Piggy Back + Kick the ball contest. We did and whilst waiting for the event to begin, we let Renee played around with the bouncing balls and the colourful balls(for kicking). The game finally began but there were no balls for the 'kick' hahaha and because of the 'run', daddy told me later that he could hear Renee grumbling behind him, on each 'bump' she felt during the run hahaha. Daddy & Renee came in 3rd but sadly, there were only prizes for the 1st 2 places, geez!
Not knowing what else to do, I suggested to go back to the 'canteen' but the food and games stalls were already packed with long ques. The 2nd time we went back there, we decided to just redeem the coupon for some food/drinks but they were already mostly sold out(yeah, should have listened to me and get them earlier) and we went for the game with the shortest que - The Flying Duckie. Renee managed to get 1 duckie into 1 of the boxes and won a prize of a crab keychain(chosen by her). The rest of the coupons went to 2 boxes of fruits, 3 tubs of cotton-candy(which Renee didn't want to eat after trying some), 1 box of fried rice(the least value for money one) and tattoos(see below pic). There were sculpted balloons for redemption too but since she's already holding one with the school's logo, we would end up having to hold either one of them for her, so I decided not to get that lolz.
Wasted my efforts in carrying the load of the digital camera and the video camera!
Feeling bored, we decided to forego the lucky draw(of which the 1st prize wld be the waiver of a 1 mth's or 1 term's school fee - whichever is applicable), we left for Vivo City as I wanted to go to the Naf Naf boutique there. Couldn't find any nice new apparels to redeem with my vouchers(might as well, since they're valid till Oct and I've just got a few pcs of new clothes, some from them too), we left for Ikea but we also ended up with nothing as the staff there couldn't help us and we didn't jot down the name of the shoe rack we needed to get, arrrggghhh.
When we got home, I showered Renee after her milk and I took mine whilst daddy had his nap(we both napped in the car already heee). And as he woke up late at around 5pm, we didn't go out as planned and he packed chilli crab and fried egg with oyster for our dinner :D
And oh, we('cos Renee was sleeping on daddy's shoulders) this sculpted balloon at Vivo City, isn't it cute? and it's free haha :
