Bad Piggies


Last night, Mo and I sat in the living room comfortably and saw the news about a series of activities in Taipei for the launch of bad piggies, a new app game.

It was already 9 pm.
Mo turned to me right away and asked to see the bad piggies.
I told her it was all over now except that we might still have a chance to see the bad piggy shown on 101.
Well, I shouldn't add the last part about 101.

We ran out the door to catch the bus and got there like 10 minutes before the closing time.
Because of the excitement, all the pictures we took were out of focus.
Both of us went home with great satisfaction though.

Mo, here is another one of the crazy things that we did together.

Merry-Go-Round

Tea Time in Europe

Merry-Go-Round

Ferris Wheel

The merry-go-round goes round and round.
The children laughed and laughed and laughed.
So many were going round and round.
That the merry-go-round collapsed.

Mo has been singing this merry-go-round song that she learned in her English course for weeks.
I thought it would be fun to actually ride on one during the time.
Unfortunately, the drunkard ruined the weekend again, as he had done so many times in past 5 years.
All I can remember now is Jeff Kuhel is a total jerk.

Ma: The next song you are going to learn is "Jimmy Crack Corn"!
Ma: 下次要教的歌是 Jimmy Crack Corn 耶!

Mo: So are we going to crack some corn?
Mo: 所以我們下次要去 crack corn 嗎?

Ma: ...
Ma: ...

The Art of The Brick in Taipei









I love LEGO. (Who doesn't?)
So of course I wouldn't miss the exhibition.
I know one thing after we saw it: nothing is limited.

I think Mo's favourite part was that Nathan Sawaya built himself a dog named "Boxer" with bricks when his parents refused to let him have a real one.
She took the DM to school and introduced every piece of works that we saw to her classmates the next day.
Mo got a big compliment for that and came home with a big smile.
