Levinkha's Posting:

A little bit on my 4th birthday update. I know it's an overdue entry but my chief editor makes it a point that we should share all the memorable moments here for later admiration!

My birthday this year fell on a Saturday and it was indeed great to have all my 'little' friends around me to celebrate the special day. Thanks to Uncle Sara, Uncle Raaga, Uncle Sunthar, Uncle Nathan and their family for being with us that evening.

3rd Bloggerversary

It has been three years since we started our blog ‘Ash Levin’. For the first time we made a post on 6 Aug 2008. Since then it has been a memorable journey. A very important part has been our readers. They have given us the much needed reinforcement, motivation and inspiration to move forward. We would like to thank our readers, who have kept us going. Yes, the little messages on Mommy’s FB do keep us awake of the importance of this blog.

We have loved our blog ever since we started it. We say this because this has been a brilliant platform for our memorable journey of childhood & sisterhood. This is our personal diary but we make it public. Isn’t that fun reading other people's diaries?

Once again we would like to say 'Thank You' to one and all who contributed their bit...especially Mommy for the effort and extra bits of ideas.

HAPPY BLOGGERVERSARY!

Stay tune for more updates from Ash-Levin.

First 21st

Ashviqha's Posting:

What is it about 'First 21st?' Yes attended a 21st birthday party for the first time. Always kids birthday and finally Mommy's cousin sister, Senthilah Akka turned 21 last 23rd July, and we were there to celebrate it. Yeeaay it was blue themed party, and i just love it as my favourite color now is BLUE!

It was big crowd, never expected that though! Mommy has too many cuzzies and i can hardly remember all the names. Yes too many....just scroll down to see the number of people in her family, the 3rd & 4th Generation of V & V (Veerappan & Veerammah).

The BLUE CAKE..(a tasty one)

Cake cutting...Left: Senthilah Akka's dad. Right: Her mom..Akka's dad is my grandmom's brother. In that case what shall i call him..Thatha? Doesn't he look young to be called Thatha. He insisted that we should call him Periappa..

Btw, Levinkha feels Thatha sounds old, she's gonna call him 'Grandpa' which sounds younger...LOL :)
English feels young, tamil means old....Enna Kodumai saar ithu!

Mommy's aunties...one missing in action! 7 girls and 1 boy....
Mommy is already grumbling with 2 girls...just imagine if it is extra 6 in my family now...probably Mommy will end up in Tg Rambutan.... :)

IQ Test

General knowledge Q...Let's see how it goes!

Mommy : Where is the Leaning Tower of Pisa?
Ashviqha : ITALY

Mommy : Where is the Eiffel Tower
Ashviqha : PARIS

Mommy : Good...Ok Levinkha, who's the President of America?
Levinkha : BERAK OMAMA

Mommy : Whatttt? B****k....OMG
You tried your best and you are almost there.

Mommy : Ok, Ashviqha, what's the tallest mountain in the world?
Ashviqha : MMM....IPOH GROVE MOUNTAIN

Mommy : WHHAATTT? Since when?
I'm tired, can we STOP here for today??

Baby Power

Ashviqha's Posting:

It was Baby Tharvin's (Papa's cousin brother's son) 1st birthday last Saturday. It was truly an exciting party with lots of highlights.

Father and son having a gala time on the dance floor

They had number games for the kids and also adults. The highlight of the party was the adult's game. Three couples took part (Thank god it wasn't Papa n Mommy). Nallasivam Perippa & Vasuge Perimma, Amutha Attai & Mama and another couple. All the ladies were given a milk bottle and they are suppose to feed the babies ...ooops i mean their husbands. Pity the babies were only given plain water ... :) The fastest baby will be the winner.

See how fast this baby goes....non-stop. Super duper fast, and we thought he's the winner. Unfortunately not because the judges found out that he made a big hole on the teats. It was considered cheating. But i felt it was practical. Even babies do make big holes so what the heck with adults!.

Amutha Attai & Mama were slow and steady. Honest baby you can say. No extended hole and he won the game.

Dance floor was never alone..

Not Surprise BUT Surprise

Ashviqha's Posting:

Father's Day was around the corner and we were not decided on the gift. Mommy was saying it's a burden to get the brain to do the thinking. Knowing Mommy's brain capacity, Papa gave a wishlist. Initially Mommy wanted to get him Play Station but then this item wasn't in the wishlist. Guess Papa must have known that the PS will be out of control (we girls are also aiming for one :) )

He wanted a Liverpool jersey badly so we decided to get him one. Mommy went hunting (so called surprise gift), manage to find one but was extremely cheap...what else ..that was a fake jersey. She was extremely tired looking for one so ended up calling Papa asking him where to buy the original jersey. Haha... so there goes the (not) surprise gift. I freaked out knowing that this gift is no more a surprise gift. :((

Mommy was smart enough to make not suprise as a surprise gift. Isn't that confusing? I was too in the beginning.

Mommy bought the jersey in Empire Subang, left in the car booth. She came back home with a very sad face "I'm sorry i tried my best but I couldn't, why don't we get it in KLCC tonite?"-There goes Papa searching in the net (for hours) where to purchase one.
The same nite ( a day b4 Father's Day) we went to KLCC for dinner at Chakri's (before that the jersey was put into Mommy's huge handbag)

(After dinner)------TADADA...''Papa, we got a small gift, we know you are eargerly waiting for your jersey, but this could sooth you down". There he goes with the sad face opened the present.....

"WHATTTTTTTTTT I got LIVERPOOL jersey"

And now you can see the BIG smile on his face...

...finally parading the jersey, before cutting the father's day cake.

Audition

Levinkha's Posting:

Recently akka was called for an audition for a tamil drama. She only knows 'konjum konjum tamil' and yet she was there for the audition. Mommy was all stressed out teaching her to act before the audition. (Mommy had the experience once, so I guess that helped her!).

Akka's acting wasn't too bad, but the accent doesn't fit in situation at all. Hehe :) Guess what??? She was blacklisted in the tamil film forever! Oooops let me put in a soft manner, "she wasn't chosen for the time being". I guess in future she would make it at least for the money we spend monthly on her drama class.. :)

Akka, waiting for her turn...

...and this is Mommy during her audition at RTM back in 2009. Mommy says she was made to look like 'Hantu' hosting a programme...:) We had to crop this photo, as her lips are like 5 times bigger than Ning Baizura's (i'm sure you know what I mean).

FYI she was chosen to host a special programme with the 1 Malaysia concept called 'Malaysia 2030'. But later the programme was scrapped due to budget constraint. Well, she was called again for Malay news reading in the afternoon , but too bad Mommy works with the Gomen in the afternoon and there goes the offer...Mind you, GOMEN is not as easy as you think...hosting also needs permission from DG. Her DG agreed on hosting but only RTM allowed (you know why??? )...LOL :)

Historical Jeans

Ashviqha's Posting:

I'm still wearing the same jeans which I wore when I was 4...How cool is that? I have outgrown the jeans yet still useable. Haha.....Mommy says it's amazing to see me wearing the same jeans till today. From a long jeans it became half jeans for me. OK that makes sense to me but I wonder how i could fit in the waistline? Didn't that waist/hips of mine grow since I was 4???

Happy Mother's Day

Levinkha's Posting:

As usual Akka and PaPa did not reveal much about the Mother's Day(MD) gift as they knew I can't keep secrets! Here goes MD..simple yet classy gift for Mommy from us (but then from PaPa's pocket)....
Apart from that, this year MD is one of a kind to remember for the rest of our lives! We will never forget this MD till the day we rest in peace....you know why?

She's Funny

Ashviqha's Posting:

'She' was meant for my little sister who goes crazy most of the time...She's more of a joker in the family who makes us laugh and cry at the same time. Recently....

Mom: Did Kakak feed you lunch today?
L: Yes...
Mom: Did Kakak scold you?

Universal Studio Singapore

Ashviqha's Posting: This post has been been pending for some time and I guess today's the right day to Xpose the trip to USS. Some tips for those planning for a USS trip: 1) Get your ticket purchased online because only certain number of tickets sold each day. 2) Be there as early as 9am. 3) Bring your cap, you got to walk in the hot sun most of the time. 4) Bring a water bottle and you can refill your bottle as much as you want from the water coolers. 5) Get ready with your camera because you'll bump into Marilyn Monroe, Charlie Chaplin etc..etc..fuyoooo that was an amazing experience, seeing all the dead people walking around you ! 6) Take extra clothes because there's a tendency of getting wet. 7) Don't bother smuggling food into USS coz, you can get delicious food with affordable price in the cafeteria. Needless to say about the briyani in Oasis Spice Cafe.

Sci-Fi City, much more than a robot city..

Glimpse of USS

That's the dino eggs, huge and I guess that's a fake one!!

This one in front of Fiona's castle. You know Fiona? That's Shreks wife.

Here comes our favourite ogre.

Levi's

Levinkha's Posting:

Nah, presenting to you my bums...ooops sorry my first Levi's. Hey, when did you get your 1st Levi's?

...

Ashviqha's Posting:

Hi everyone...I feel new to this blogging world, feel a bit left out too. It's quite sometime since I updated this blog. And some of you did e-mail, message Mommy through FB and asked personally what exactly happened? Well, the answer is very simple. All of us were attacked by so called Lazyocriptumumus virus and it took some time to recover. Oooh finally we are feeling much better to start this brand new year. Perhaps, we have quite a number of juicy stories lined up for you people out there.

Quick update of 2011:

• Started schooling in January. Was too excited to go to Standard 2 especially the first day...Why? Coz I was chosen to be a prefect. Mmm...with new uniform and the 'new' smell from it was great!



• Levinkha and I are behaving more like sisters now. We started quarelling for things like bangles and jewelleries; and kungfu fight is a must in our life now. Hey that's a great milestone for us!


• Levinkha finally experienced her flying journey with Everyone Can Fly!



• Last week we went to Singapore with Universal Studio being our main intention. (special posting on US will be up soon)
