Despite facing numerous assessments this week, I asked Junie to play and relax. After all, we can’t live for exams.
Month: February 2013
Good Morning, Singapore
It must have been raining last night…
Damp and moist this morning…
Busy Week
There are numerous tests this week in J’s school. School life in Singapore is not easy… not easy…
Model Making
This is the props that J used in her show and tell. They looked v real to me!
Show and Tell Time!!!
Yes, tomorrow will be the show time, in English. The topic is My Favourite Food. See how she prepared for her presentation.
From Pre-teen to Teen
Junie is turning 8 in June. These 8 years are just like the twinkle of the eye. I am sure very soon, another 8 years would pass. By then, I would be facing a teenager, the most challenging creature in this planet. So I have decided to start early and prepare myself for this trying stage. I am now in the process of searching appropriate stuff to learn from. It’s so nice that nowadays the online bookstore offers trial reading.
Not Feeling Well
One of my ears is clogged. It doesn’t cause any pain but the unbalanced hearing ability made me dizzy. So I decided to see to the doctor, for the first time in Singapore. The clinic I visited was v luxurious (I believe its target patients are expats as it is called the international clinic). Great facilities. Detailed registration procedures. Dispensary filled w the latest medicine. Yet, they failed to identify the cause of my clogged ear. Frankly speaking, I was not surprised. This exactly coincides with my experiences after having been here for a year – you are in a city with everything… But somehow, you can never find what you want.
I left the clinic after paying a fee of SGD183 (USD147 ) in exchange of an unsolved health problem and a bag full of expensive medicine.
Buddy Tutor Training Programme
Today, we arrived school early. Junie was receiving her first training on how to be a buddy tutor. She put into her pocket her favourite pink pen and LOVE notepad. She was all ready to learn something new! Proud of her!
Very Much Behind
my study is… Big big disaster. Readers may wonder why, every now and then, this kind of posts pops up…? Well, all I can say is, that’s life! My life! 🙂
Buddy Tutor
J was selected to be a Buddy Tutor to read English books for P1 and P2 weaker (language wise) students twice a week. Only 4 in the class were chose. I was glad that J’s language proficiency has been recognized.
