Famous Car (Part 1)

My progress earlier was documented here. This is how I organize my parts in a Tupperware candy tray and certainly helps me to look up for those teeny weeny intricate parts better :) 

While I have just gotten my engine started (currently at Stage 14) as of 240216, the boss has completed in assembling his project and is working on his plan to (further) mobilize his already mobile crane.

Stage 14 

Girls' Day Out

It had been quite some time since we last had out girls outing. It was an impromptu decision after Sunday class service (310116) where SIL mentioned that Origin, the hair care products we are currently using are having a promotion in the bazaar fair in Yu Yuan hall. Off we went along with hon’s cousin and Missy slept throughout the way. SIL and I have been taking turn to carry the sleeping princess while strolling booth after booths as I didn’t bring my Ergo carrier along. On top of the hair products, I still managed to grab costume jewelries; a Korean bangle and necklace. Missy had been sleeping cozily throughout the way and woke up just timely before we left. Upon waking up, she spotted a booth selling colorful balloons. When I offered her, she quickly nodded her head and chose a Hello Kitty one.

Upon reaching Ah Tai’s house, where the boss is waiting for us before heading home we got her to pose with her balloon. Since she had just woken up not long ago and still in a jolly good mood, she willingly obliged. Photos her are credited to her aunts. 

LEGO fever is back!

This week had been a stressful and challenging one. Finally, I am glad that weekdays had come to a dawn and I finally wave Hi to weekend days where I can spend a little bit more time to work on this, my new project :)

Both the boss and I (Missy too with her LEGO Duplo sets!) are LEGO fans. During our recent trip back to KK for CNY, the boss had itchy hands when we came across with a third party set, Decool Famous Car which was sold with just a fraction of an original LEGO Technic set. Out of curiosity, we grabbed the biggest set available on the shelf.  But, in order to keep himself as a true blue original LEGO fan, he presented the set to me instead and challenged me to assemble them while in the meantime, he is diligently working on his LEGO technic Crawler Crane, a new addition to his LEGO Technic family. Being a newbie to Technic series, my progress was started more than a week ago but was lackadaisically surpassed by the boss in less than an hour span :P

I am currently sparing a few minutes of time on a day (if possible) and usually manage to complete a maximum of a couple of steps before heading to meet up Missy and for dinner at Ah Tai’s. I am reminding myself not to compare myself with the boss’ progress instead giving myself a year time span and we’ll see how far I can go. Shall time permits, I will keep my progress documented from time to time :)
