10th week in school

9 mar (tues) - yy was late for school again. Infact he has finished his lunch much faster today and has some free time in between before he has to change and go to school. So he took out a craft activity book and started cutting and folding........ till the very last min. Sigh, really dont understand what both yy and the maid are doing at home. It is as if my house got no clock to remind them of the time.

11 mar (thurs) - today I found his classmate's worksheet inside his bag. At least it is better than his worksheet "taken" by his classmate.

School Term 1 is over. Hopefully all these will be split over to the next term.

Eeee so cute

I bought this cute sun shape for yy today cos the weather is too hot in the daytime. Thinking that it can provide him with some shade on his way to school. he likes it alot when I shown it to him. However on our way to school, he was hiding behind me with the shade on and removed it way before we reached the school insisting that it is not hot.
However once he reached home today, he wore his shade again at home. I was puzzled and asked him if he likes this new sun shade. To my surprise, my boy told me that he liked it but he dont want to wear it to school cos his friends will say "Eeeee so cute" but he will wear it to other places as other adults will feel it is all right for big kid like him to wear cute stuff. wow I didnt realise my boy is beginning to feel uncomfortable with things that are too cutey.

in the end, he is wearing it at home at night

charlie's first day to school ! (1 mar 10)

we also believed that charlie is the more adverturous one and we will not have any problem with her adapting to new environment. I supposed we have been misled by her "gunho" side at home.

today is her first day of school (n2). infact her very first attempt to attend class of any kind. To our surprise, she appears stiff and reserve. Even when the kids are playing at the indoor playground. She is being "pushed" around by the other kids who cut quene.

During the assembly time where all the kids gather in a room to sing a songs, charlie is not enjoying herself at all. To the extend that she wept and wanted to leave the room.

It was much better in her own class as the teacher tried to get her involved with the class. Her tofu princess character still persists in the totally new place. She will walk all the way to the back of the class where I was siting complaining to me that his classmate "stares" at her closely at the face, pull her thumb and accidentally hit on her chin. Charlie later got distraction when she saw a classmate with 3 clips on her fringe. I guess she decided that girl is going to be her friend cos she will sit next to her whenever she can.

Explore Kids at Downtown East (28 feb 10)

Got 2 complimentary tickets to Explore kids which is expiring next thurs. so die die also have to go this weekend. As per previous time, we dont have any decent photo as the kids are exciting climbing and running non stop.

There is only a couple of kids playing at that time as we reached quite late. unlike the last time when we literally following charlie, cushioning her. This time she was left alone most of the time, climbing in the maze on her own. As for yy, this round he is more daring to try out the slide and he likes it.

basically the kids did not reply me when I asked them if it is fun. They just dash away for another round.

7th week of school

last week was a peaceful week. No hanky panky "news" from yy, except the part he told me he trimmed his hair in class in 3 different occasions.

17 feb - first day of school after CNY. Instead of double greeting it is more like double shocking from yy. He was late for school again. The stunning thing is his daddy was at home today supervising him during his lunch. I totally "surrender".

When yy came back from school, he happily told me something magical happened in school today. That is he could not find his storybook in his school bag and went around asking other kids if they have an extra book to lend him but infact there are 2 storybooks in his bag. In class, he claimed that he could not find his pencil box and asked for stationery from his teacher and "magically" it reappears in his bag after recess break.

Hollywood dino (7 feb 10)

Visited the hollywood dino today. nothing fantastic abt it at all. Only for kids I would say and I'm sure many will agreed.

Have asked charlie many times if she wants to see dino which she said "yap". However when we reached there, she refused and wanted to go home. We tried to persuade and bribe her but failed. To my surprise, when kate is here, the 2 girls just happily went in like nothing has happened earlier.

as expected, yy refused to stand near the dino :(

charlie was scared of the dino which basically just nodded their head and tail.
kate latest photo pose. cute isnt it

charlie only "warm" up at the last part of the tour.

5th week

1 feb (mon) - yy came back with his long and found items today. His classmate siting next to him took his textbook home by mistake. As for his worksheet, the teacher did not return to him as he did not write his name on it. Today "new" pattern. He misplaced his whole pencil box. sigh.

3 feb (wed) - yy did not pack his book for Health Education lesson today :(
