Farewell Party

We were invited to a BBQ farewell party this evening for Nigel & Karen as they will be leaving Singapore after years of tough thoughts of migration. I'm glad they have finally decided its time for them to go. We wish them all the best and let's keep in touch !

Jeremy 1st Goodie Bag

Today after school, I saw this goodie bag in his school bag and asked his teacher. So realised that they celebrated one kid's birthday earlier on. Then I noticed there's some cake stain on Jeremy's mouth & on his t-shirt as well. Wahahahaa..... this boy must be trying to feed him and got it stained.

Children's First Car Ride

This was their 1st ride at Downtown East last weekend and I'm very surprised that Jeremy was so daring and he wasn't afraid of it at all! He even pestered me to let him ride on it again and again and of course he whinned when its time to leave

AMC Cookware

Ever since I changed my cooking pots/pan to AMC, cooking has been a better experience for me. It saves my time spend in the kitchen and most of all I save on gas and its healthier!

AStar Interactive Maths

We did some Mathematics revision on additions using Astar Interactive multimedia cd. It's always good to recap what we have been taught. Isn't it so?

Addition New Lessons On Tuesdays

I have been teaching Jamie Chinese subject on every Tuesdays since she started school last year. And this year, I have decided to add on one more, that is to teach her some simple yet essential drawing skills so that she is able to draw better as she seems to love to draw. So this morning after our chinese lesson, I taught her how to draw a chick, peanut & sunflower. I am not good in drawing but we will both learn together as we go along :P

Bye Bye Black Long Hair

Don't know where did I picked up the courage to chop down my long black hair which I have been keeping it for years. Yes there were times when I really trimmed my hair to shoulder length but I never changed the style. I cut my hair on last Saturday, colored it on Sunday and highlighted today. The outcome? Hmm, I don't really like the highlighted color though the hairstyle and coloring were good. Wanna see my new hairstyle??

My First Day of School

Today is Jeremy's first day of school at Evergreen Montessori. I am really very happy that this day has finally arrived for him to learn something formally in a school environment. As a matter of fact that I am unable to teach him at this age, its wiser to send him out to continue learning rather than putting a halt to it till next year.

Straws Threading

Didn't want to give up so I got some big straws (those I used it for my bubble tea drinks) and let him thread. As usual, his concentration level is pretty short whenever it comes to this exercise. This time, he managed to string 2 straws I think. Sigh!

Ouch!!!

It happened swiftly while I was taking my shower before bedtime. She was complaining to her papa about some pain and shortly after we were shocked to find out some some blood stained on her right foot! Apparently she had stepped on a small glass particle while playing in her daddy's studyroom. Good thing its not a deep cut.

First Day of School

After 1.5mths of rest & relax, finally it's time for Jamie to go back to school! I think I am happier than her ! She is now in Kindergarten 1. And this year, it will be another new beginning for her to embark on new learning be it at home, school or elsewhere. I am definitely anxious to see how much more she will grow academically, physically as well as emotionally.

Evening Night Out

CQ suggested that we go to Botanic Garden so we were there for a short while before darkness turned in. Night time we strolled along Orchard Road to catch a glimpse of the Christmas decorations before it makes way for CNY.

Last Church Service of the Year

Very happy that papa is free today to go to church with us! One of my Y2008 resolution is that he can go to church with us on every Sundays. See the girl sitting behind Jamie? That's her best friend, Kelly. She's turning 8 this year.

Fruitful School Holiday 2007

Forgotten to include my once a week tuition commitment, relief teaching for 3 days for my friend who was down with chicken pox. So I was pretty packed and busy literally throughout the Nov-Dec school holiday!

Micro Mosquito Helicopter Toy

Saw this interesting r/c toy at a major departmental store earlier this month and it striked me to get it for CQ as Christmas present! Looks cool but in actual fact, not easy to manipulate and control. See the link here.
