*BONK BONK BONK BONK*

We were at the dinner table savouring the dishes my mum cooked up for the family. She rarely cooks so when she does, it's only for the Chinese New Year, when all my cousins, aunties, and uncles gather under one roof. As we started eating, no conversation was made so there's only the clinking sound of cutleries hitting against the ceramic bowls and plates, only if one paid enough attention to it. But this not-so-awkward silence was pierced through by the unexpectedly loud noise of a rubber ball bouncing on the marble floor. We paused and looked at each other for a few seconds, then simultaneously shifted our gaze to the empty seat where the youngest member of the family, my nephew was sitting.... It's now empty.

My aunt gasps, "AHHHH KEN!!!!!!!"

Out of curiosity, I excused myself from the dinner to check out what was my nephew doing. It turns out that he's having a ball in the living room by himself. Note the pun. heh.

*Bonk Bonk Bonk Bonk*

I bought this rubber ball for myself when the Pixar movie, Monster Inc. came out in 2001. And obviously, the ball isn't meant for people of my size but I love the animation too much.

I couldn't stop laughing seeing how much fun he was having.

I laugh even harder when he slipped and went, "WOOOW WOOOWW WOOOOW~ AHHHH~"

My favourite snap. It looks as if he's floating in the air, like something you would see in StarWars. HAHAHAHAHA. A jedi master!

Finally, exhausted.

I realized that my house is quite kids friendly because I still keep some of my favourite toys at random places in the house. It's like a treasure hunt for them when they come over and the first prize seems to be my Sony Play Stations.

PS:

There goes another Chinese New Year. Time flies.

PPS:

Getting ready to head back to Melbourne :)
