In Prep of Circuit Breaker

Haiz, the home-based learning has been extended to the entire month. That is so scary. Someday, somebody can make this into a horror movie.

While people are hoarding groceries, I hoard different things that will ensure my sanity for the next month. I was telling Popo that the supermarkets will sure be filled with people who are panic buying and we can avoid the supermarkets for a while; trust the Government, there are plentiful of food in Singapore. 

Our purchases are different. The 1st one was the PS4, which had been proven to be a good investment. Daddy Lim is almost a pro NBA player on PS4 already. Hohoho.

The TV had been giving us some problems. We didn't replace it as only Popo really watches the TV. With the month long confinement, we needed a new TV so that the PS4 can be played properly and the kids can watch Netflix on TV too. Lil Shauna and I lugged the new TV from JP home. Fortunately the TVs nowadays are so much more light weight now.

I have told the kids that screen time (including TV) will be limited starting Wednesday and they will have to do up their timetable. With the library closed too, we loaned 12 books over the weekend. Hopefully, they will last the kids the entire month.

The kids bugged for new puzzle and Lego, which I was super reluctant to buy. Lego is freaking expensive. We have plenty of Lego pieces just that Zaky is too lazy to look for the fitting ones. We dismantled the old puzzle for the kids to work on it again.

Hahaha... (nervous laugh) what did I get myself into?

We were pretty much confined over the weekend. As a socially responsible cyclist, I went for a solo ride. It had been such a long time since I last cycled on my own.

I went all the way to LPS and uturn. This loneliness is scary, such that I started talking myself, like when I past by the Paris Baguette that Daddy Lim and I used to stop by.

I made it home alright. Just that I didn't really want to ride solo the next day.

My Strava has gone crazy and still giving me crazy readings.

Popo had the idea to have a last family dinner outside before the Circuit Breaker but was strongly discouraged. It is not like the virus will not attack now and will obediently only do so after 7 April. She is a senior afterall and needs to minimise exposure. But I have to shamefully admit that I still brought Lil Shauna for some final practices before the rink closes for a month. The rink was empty and she had good practices. I hoped she still remembers her camel spin and Axel when she finally hit the ice again. Her Axel jumps had been so great lately. Coach Raymond had asked her to practice off ice. Fingers and toes crossed.

I hoped I am ready to fight the month long home-based learning. Fighting! 怕怕!
