Guess this is more suitable for him after all (^_^)

A Happy Father and Son

I don’t know what’s making my son so happy, I guess should be the cap that I’m wearing.

A Very Happy Aaden

For starters, he celebrated his 2 birthday, the Chinese Lunar calendar and the normal one.

On the 2nd November 2010, which is equivalent of his Lunar Calendar’s Birthdate. The Aunt from Singapore and my mom are virtually spoiling him. Red packets, kisses.

See him looking at the first round of red packets he collected.

Of course, there is the customary Chinese tradition of foretelling his future. Apparently, Aaden is more attracted to pens and papers rather then the chicken drumsticks. Meaning, he will be a scholar in the future….I hoped…..But I would rather let him explore his own interests then forcing him do what he doesn’t like. A more open education rather then a whip-and-cane education as imposed by some kiasu parents.

2010-11-02 02112010 041

No doubts, things aren’t gonna be simple, but life will have its way in the future.

2010-11-02 02112010 049

And the evening is his celebration with his friends. In fact my wife’s friends actually.

Just look at how the grandparents are smiling. Really cannot understand how’s the feeling of being a granddad for now. Why the pampering, the doting? Really have no idea on why old people are behaving like that towards their grandchildren.

And celebrating the “2nd” Birthday on 12th November 2010.

3 Idiots

This show is one of the best Hindi movies I had watched in recent times. The title are not what it meant. This movie really sends out a strong message to the teachers, students and everyone.

I would recommend this show to everyone who like a good laugh one of these days.

My Tots on the Proton's Inspira

Well, as always, Proton is never capable in designing something sleek. Even if some miraculous designs did came from the Proton's drawing board, it sure doesn't applease me. Seems like Proton is trying to re-do its previous success during the Wira era(early 90's). They are coming up with a 'new' model called the Inspira.

Oh...the naming.....its so lame. Inspira, Exora, Perdana, Satria, Waja, Persona, Saga.....besides Savvy and Gen2....all ends with an 'A'. Even the Proton's Alphard aka Juara is not spared. Seems like the marketing department is quite shallow in their vocabulary. Who knows maybe someday they will come up with names like Dracula or WonderBra, since their marketing really like their cars' name to end with an 'A'.

Last quarter of 2010, Proton is lauching a so-called 'new' model, Inspira. A clone of the latest Mitsubishi Lancer. Upon hearing Mitshubishi's name, I was like " Wow, the new car from Proton can be interesting". Then settling back to Earth, I did a check on the pricing comparing to the Mitsubishi Lancer.

Inspira 1.8 is going at a price of close to 80K. The 2.0 version , not more then 95K as stated in Paultan's blog. The Original Mitsubishi Lancer 2.0 going at around 124K.

Of course, comparision will be made between the Inspira 2.0 and the Lancer 2.0. The price difference is almost 30K. Attactive huh? Well, in my own opinion, no.....my points as follows.

Before the 300% tax the Government imposed on foreign cars, in this scenario, Mitsubishi Lancer 2.0, the final OTR price is 124K. But if you imagine without the tax, the Mitsubishi Lancer costs only close to 31K..!!!! I have no idea how much the car actually costs in Japan, but if the actual selling costs is between 31K-50K.....Proton is really sucking the consumers dry for a same 2.0 model. Maybe there are some differences in some parts used for the Proton's version, hence the price difference. But for a starting price of 80K for a local branded car, I believe I can have a lot of choices for other imported cars.

All I can say is good luck to Proton and the buyers. Until the real test drive review is out. There's really no way to say how good this car can be in terms of build quality since it will be badged under Proton's emblem.

Aaden's 1st Swim!

At close to 11 months old, I brought him to a swimming pool. Looped him up with a floating tube and lower him into the pool.
See how he goes.

Cute huh? (^^)
