On 15 July, Jo1 passed to me a paper which is the acceptance letter of Jo2′s to primary school. I was waiting for this letter to arrive since the beginning of July, I expect them to send it to my mail box. Jo1 told me that her form teacher passed it to her, only I realized that once you have your #1 in that school, your #2 will automatically accepted in the same school (for convenient sake, I think)

In the mean while, Jo2 is preparing for his Kindergarten graduation concert now. He will be taking his graduation photos in September, and I need to get him a long pants, white shirt with collar, and a pair of sport shoes too. Looking forward for the day to come.

Next, he said he wanted to buy a BIG house so that he can stay with his best friends. My little boy been asking for a bigger house as we are now staying in a 1100 sq. ft apartment has not much space for him to run around. Sorry, boy….daddy & mommy has no intention to buy another house in Penang at this moment coz the price of landed property is hiking up + I don’t have the energy and time to clean a bigger house .

Of course, he knew that to buy all these, he needs to earn lots of money. He said he wants to be like “Bob the builder”, engineer like papa2jojo, pilot like uncle Ivan….blah blah blah….and this morning, he told me he wants to be a double decker bus driver. FAINT!!!

On Tuesday, they decorate their project folder and make origami. At 5PM, I went to fetch them. In the car, I told them that I got a good news and bad news for them. The bad news is – I am taking them to Dr.Sim’s clinic which is few blocks away from their school. Their annual influenza jab is due, and this time they are taking influenza + H1N1 (2 in 1). Jo1 weight at 29kg and Jo2 is 20.3kg. Both of them asked Dr for a smaller needle so that not so painful, but so shame that Jo1 cried. Dr recalled that when she was a baby, she never cried at all.

And the good news is – mummy will bring them to cinema to watch The Karate Kid tonite. Surprisingly no queue at the ticketing counter, we managed to grab a good seat for a good show. The movie lasts for 2 hrs 15min and we reached home at 11PM.

On Wednesday, the last day of their camp they learned how to make ice-cream in 10min. Both came home happily with their stuff done at the camp in a orange color bag.

What a fruitful holiday they had…

Jo1 is turning 9 (standard 3) and Jo2 is turning 6(kindi 2) this year. Jo1 is in the 1st class this year (more tough and lots of homework) actually I prefer her to stay in the 2nd class. In fact, she told me that her classmates are not friendly and more selfish compared to last year. I am a mommy who put priority on attitute coz I don’t want my kids to grow up with attitude problem. Good thing is that, Jo1 still befriendwith her old classmates during tea break.

Being in the 1st class, her classroom has a big size air cooler, 2 fans and new table and chair. Other than that, I also noticed that there are grill installed on the classroom, and window has curtain. Now, the canteen is cleaner and look brighter with new mosaics.

2 years ago, when Jo1 first enrolled to this school, I was very unsatisfied with the toilet. Now, I am so happy when I see the new cleaner toilet. And also not forget the newly renovated canteen which look brighter and cleaner now.

Meanwhile, Jo2 has not much changes for this year. He is still in the same kindergarten since nursery1 except he insisted not to take his afternoon nap now. Yup, he said he is a big boy now. This big boy will wake up @ 8am, brush teeth, change into uniform (button by himself w/o mommy’s help), choose clothes to bring to school, go to the living room to check whether mommy has prepared “bento” for his tea break @ school, then he will take his vitamins(able to open the cap , play his toy for a while b4 he carry his school bag leaving for school. This year, he will be sitting for 2 exams (mid year & year end). He also has spelling every week since the beginning of this year. In fact, he already get used to these since last year.

Monday – Malay spelling (Ejaan – morning session)
Tuesday – Chinese spelling (听写 – afternoon session)
Wednesday – Dictation (morning session)
Thursday – Malay spelling (Ejaan – afternoon session)

Indeed, I really thank god that I am blessed to have 2 of them as my children… …
I hope it’s a good start for the year 2010, and will lasts forever.

Right after Jo1′s 2 semester first exam (end of August 09), we went for a day trip to kedah. This is more like a education trip for her. We passed by padi field on our way heading to The Padi Musuem where both my kids enjoyed seeing the farm animals. They kept counting the numbers of cows they saw. We did stop by Gunung Keriang since it’s located nearby, but nothing to shout about there except a few crystal shop at the bottom of the mountain.

museum

Next, we have a new addition to the Ng family. Papa2jojo’s eldest brother’s R.OM was held on 20 Sept @ Taiping. The ceremony was held in the morning and we had luncheon right after that.

Next, we have Mid-autumn celebration @ PSC. This year, kids’ PD also invited us to celebrate this festival in his new clinic, but we didn’t turn up coz I prefer to celebrate it with my parents.

October means the month for birthday celebration. Jo2 turned 5 this year. He had his b’day celebrated @ school and @ my parents place.

then……he told me he wanted to wear the light blue shirt that we bought from HongKong Disneyland.

in fact, his school uniform is blue color too!!! Isn’t he very good in “Matching” color. Maybe, he wanted a “blue themed” b’day, juz mommy didn’t notice about it.
