SSG Koh's Baby First Month Celebrations

14 March 2009

After the weekly meeting with Bedok North Secondary School Service Learning Club students, I rushed off to Jurong Spring Community Club to attend SSG Koh's Baby First Month Celebrations.

This is a traditional Chinese custom of celebrating the first month for newborn babies. In Singapore, this is usually carried out in the form of a housewarming party, with buffets and red-dyed eggs for friends and relatives. Friends and relatives will come with gifts and to catch a glimpse of the lucky couple and the cute offspring.

Tengda arrived at the same time as Wee Keat and I. We chatted with our upper studies and our under studies. The last time all of us met was at SSG Koh's wedding dinner.

Sergeant Nick came with his baby too!

It's good to see that everyone looked the same. Memories of my military life resurfaced in my head.
