On Borrowed Time...

In class. The kids having a break before their remedial. I haven't been updating so here I am. I have a few photos to upload. Hope I'll get round to it sooner than later.

Just came back from the sec 4 camp. Exhausting! Eventhough my P gave me permission to go home every night, it was still tiring which is kinda weird coz I hardly did anything. Us teachers just hung around, did some marking and that was about it. On the second day, we played some really cool games...like mind games (Polar Bear?) and some medieval strategic card game which is way cool. I won by the way. Hehe.

Got to know more and interact with the other teachers there. They're very nice. I'm glad we had the camp. The kids enjoyed their time there too I think although they seem dead tired in class today. Haha. Poor kids.

And my little kids? They're doing alright. Ayra's on a school trip even as I write. She's at Health Zone. Actually she's been there before but she was still excited about it last night. She's also doing pretty well with her school work. I'm glad. I'm really not asking for the sun or the moon; just that my daughter grows up to be well adjusted and happy. If she's smart, that's an added bonus, if she's not then let it be. As long as her values are right and she is a good person, I'm happy :)

As for my baby boy, he's adjusting to school well. He no longer resist going to school. Feedback from his Teacher, Bei Xuan, has been favorable. He's pretty much a happy trooper except when his routine or route is changed. Still, they're trying to get him to be more receptive to changes. Well kudos to them for even trying!

And oh! My good friend gave birth to a baby boy earlier this week! So exciting. I still can't believe she's a mommy. Anyway, Fiza, if you get to read this, I just wanna tell you that I feel you'll be a wonderful mommy! Mateen is really lucky to have you and I'll see you soon k babe?

Hell, only 10 mintes left. I'm almost never not busy now but in way, I don't mind. Roshan thinks I'm shooting myself in the foot for trying to be a perfectionist. Yeah I guess I have to loosen up a bit yeah? I'm sorry baby if I drive you up the wall at times. Thanks for being patient and not giving up on me. ......101...... :)

Ok gotta go. Hopefully will write soon. Stay sane people... I'll do likewise.

School's In!

Yup, both my children are back to being busy students! Ayra started her education at a "proper" school on a good note. As expected, she's being an eager beaver, always wanting to tell us about her day in school. She's made quite a number of friends and seems to be settling in well. I'm glad that there's not too much homework (hardly any) from her teachers but I have a feeling that things will change soon. Ayra has also been rather unwell and has developed a rather mean cough. Hope she gets better soon. Poor girl. She seems tired nowadays and there's hardly time for recreation. It doesn't help that Mommy and Daddy are just as tired and busy either. Still, I 'm positive we'll be able to work out something to balance out work and play. Stay strong honey; things can only get better.

Then there's my Fuddin. After settling the Yishun Park's we-don't-have-a-bus-plying-CCK-so-make-your-own-arrangement-we-don't-really-care fiasco, my Baby is once again a full fledged student. 5 times a week! Woohoo! No more being cooped up at home. It's a welcome change. Grandpa says he's been coping well except when he's hungry! Haha...after swimming on Wednesday, Fuddin actually cried on the bus all the way back home. We soon found out he was hungry therefore GRUMPY! We still haven't given up hope on trying to get him to lose some weight so we'll see how that goes.

As for me, I'm alright. Still terribly busy but then if I recall correctly, I've always been busy! Haha! Which reminds me...I should be doing something else now...

K World, talk soon.

Life Goes On....

It's been a crazy week. It is an understatement to say that I have been busy. I'm so busy at work that I haven't even been to the canteen. The good news is that I've lost weight! Haha. I like. However, I do not want to continue being so busy. I haven't even be able to spend time with my babies. Ayra reaches home at almost 7 and next week, Fuddin starts school. I'm only left with a few hours to be with them each weekeday and during those precious few hours, I have to clean the house, fold clothes, bathe them.....blah blah blah.

Still, I am optimistic about the whole thing. I suppose I'm new to the school and therefore, I will need a bit more time to orientate myself. The staff here are ok. They're pretty nice although there are a few "sour plums". Still, I don't see myself being too chummy with them. I guess I just can't click with anyone here. Still, I don't mind. I end up being more productive I suppose. While I had plenty of friends at Dunearn, I was also sidetracked from work more times than I should have been.

As for the kids, they're nice and generally better behaved than those in Dunearn. Still, I miss those rascals in Dunearn. No point being nostalgic though. Life goes on. Just be positive, look to the future and do our best. Right?

Alright I've gotta go and do more work. I'm really looking forward to the weekend.

It's the llittle things in life that matters....

Its the first day of 2010. No countdown for me. Hubby was working. Still, I'm looking forward to 2010. A year of new beginnings for myself and many of my loved ones.

New schools for Syahmi (K1), Syafiq,(sec 1) Ryan (playgroup), Fuddin (EStep year 2), Ayra (P1) and me!


Anyway, I got pretty pissed with Yishun Park, Fuddin's school, the other day. We had brought him along to meet his new teacher and everything seemed fine. Fuddin was pretty cooperative and even started doing "tasks" once he stepped into the classroom and saw some activities in a corner. We were pleased but I received a RUDE shock when I was told by the office that there's no school bus plying Chua Chu Kang. Hmm, after making many frantic calls, it'll suffice to say that no one wanted to help me. So what is my son supposed to do? Be a school dropout at 5 yrs old cause he has a grossly incompetent Principal who can't even arrange my son's transport? Ok I won't elaborate any more but bottomline is, Fuddin has to take a cab with Grandad for the time being. Believe me, I'm not gonna sit back and do nothing. I will get that bus to pick him up and send him to school. Just watch me. Nincompoop.

Anyways, here's my baby with his new teacher and classrroom.



Here's Fuddin trying to get some PSP action by looking over Shauqi's shoulder. Hehe...so cute!



More pics of my baby.



Also celebrated my siblings' birthday. Just a small affair but a good 0ne nonetheless. Happy birthday my dearest (and only) bro and sis!



Ok one last thing. New Acquisitions! I like! An got me a Coach bag for our anniversary which was not too long ago.


And matching wedding bands....and matching I phones! Black for him and white for mua. I love my I phone. I really do. Hehe.



Ok that's it for now. Only the weeken left before all hell breaks loose. How divine...(wry smile).

Happy New Pear peeps..Stay sane..
