Sky made his first maiden solo performance during his Kindy's Teacher's Day dedication concert. He passed the audition and was chosen to perform on Teacher's Day.  The audition wasn't that smooth sailing actually. On the day of the audition, he blew it and totally blanked out.

Ooooh..back from a week of holiday! In fact, after a three full days of chionging in BKK, we had to have another relaxing getaway in Batam to beat the exhaustion. Endless eating, endless shopping and the heavenly massages (some were not that great though)! This time, we did not take much photos. Mostly, by the time we remembered to take pictures, we were...
