Yes, yes, yes!!! I'm lousy & bad!!! Kion just hit her lips against the side of her bed so badly that I saw blood on her teeth & gum =( She cried so badly that I feel her pain, in fact just looking @her swollen lips & gum made my heart ached so much that I burst out crying in front of her....
Yet my poor little girl, upon seein mummy crying, quickly stopped crying, went 2 grab a tissue for me, and asked: " mummy, r u really crying or pretending 2 cry?" OMG!!! think upon careful observations, she quickly clean my tears away with the tissue in her hand, & repeatedly told me that its not painful already...
Poor darling, I wonder if it is going 2 b painful tomorrow.... Nowadays, she always jumping here & there, frequently getting herself injured with bruises that I soooo wish that I could just squeeze her into a tiny baby & put her back into my stomach so that she wont injure herself anymore =(
Anyway, I brought Kion 2 the Esplanade 2 watch a play with G & K today, she really loved it =) Think we're gonna do a lot more soon.... In fact, we already bought the tickets for another one in April =p Hehehee... sounds Kiasu right???

Kion can spell 1 to 5!!!
Hehe, Kion's mummy moment of glory is here again!!!
Yes, my daughter's progress has slowly turned me into a Kiasu cum Kiasee mother.
Kiasu cos I keep wanting Kion to go to better schools, keep google-ing on comments of this school & that school, trying 2 look for a best in everything school, but frankly speaking, where 2 find???
Kiasee cos I'm beginning 2 get worried @ almost everything, like how does Kion feels in her new school? will her fear for her new school make her lost interest in gg 2 school? What will happen 2 her mentally & emotionally if she cant pass the brain olympics test by the end of term 1???
Haiz, I seriously knows the reason for the increase of my white hair now =(
Anyway, was damn proud of Kion yesterday when she managed 2 spell 1 to 5 for me cos I had been spelling 'o-n-e 1, t-w-o 2......' to 10 to her for the last few weeks but so far she had only been able 2 spell 1 & 2.
It happened yesterday afternoon when she accidentally hit me with her elbow while I dressed her after bathing. I pretended 2 b angry & whenever she thinks I'm angry, she will recite the 12months in english & mandarin 2 me 2 try 2 make me happy. So yesterday, after she recited the 12months, she, as usual, asked: Mummy, r u happy already? I said 'no!' & told her to spell her numbers to make me happy =p hahahaaaa....
she spell: o-n-e 1, t-w-o-2, then when she spelled 3, I was shocked that she got it correct. upon further testing, I realized that she had been able 2 spell no.1 to 5. =)
I am of cos, so happy & proud of her cos it meant that my efforts r not wasted. Yet sometimes when I sit down & think back, what's the big deal of knowing her spellings? instead, isn't it kind of a bad mummy I am cos I might have unintentionally made her learn things of which is not supposed 2 b learn @her age.
Think abt it, spelling r only given in K1 or K2.... Even if a child cant spell a certain word @2yrs old, she can definitely spell it @6 or 7 yrs old. So y the rush??? I am trying very hard 2 balance myself, 2 not ask so much from my child, as like what I had read from dunno where, we should b grateful that we had been given a chance 2 b parents, & our duties r to groom them into useful & responsible people 4 our society, not 2 control them & want them 2 live life like what we expect them to be.... It is of cos, easier said than done =p
Anyway, I still havent update my Tokyo trip, although partially had been saved in my draft.... I need more time, TIME, TIME, TIME!!!

2nd day of school, with tears in her eyes!
Hmmmm..... well yes, Kion has started going to Lorna Whiston yesterday. She was perfectly ok yesterday, except 4 crying a bit in bed when I woke her up, telling her 2 get ready for her new school. I was told that I would b allowed to watch her in school for the 1st three days or so, but I didnt wanted 2 stay & watch her cos I'm afraid that she would b clingy & demand that I still stay on after the 1st three days. In the car, we talked about her toys, her fav food,everything, although I avoided the subject of old & new school. At 1 point, Kion actually told me to alight her by the stairs & that she could go up to LW(located @ the 2nd floor) by herself, although on & off she would ask if I could go into her class.
When we arrived, I carried Kion in my arms while waiting 4 the lift, but she immediately told me 2 put her down, guess she was afraid that her classmates would see her being carried. Hehehee... 3yrs old acting like a big kid =)
When we got up to LW, Ms Ann took her temperature & asked her 2 intro herself. I could see that she was a bit scare, but her fears were quickly dismissed when she went into the classroom. I waved goodbye 2 her, but actually quietly watched her from the window, & saw her walking & hopping abt. She caught sight of me, smiled 2 me, then I gesture 2 her that I was leaving & she nodded her head =)
All was well also when I picked her up, she told me how she fed herself, told me she enjoyed her new school, till b4 bedtime, she suddenly changed 360 degree, said she dont want to go LW tomorrow & burst out crying.
It was the same this morning, Kion kept crying, said she want to go back to Weecare. I calm her down by agreeing but when I took out her LW uniform to change her, she burst out crying again =( I got to keep telling her that I would stay in her school with her, b4 she finally agree 2 go 2 LW with me. On the way 2 school, she kept saying: "I want u 2 stay in my class with me, Mummy!"
She was tearing during temperature taking time so I followed her 2 the classroom & stayed there for a few mins. Then I told her that I got 2 go & waved goodbye 2 her. She seems ok, nodded her head @me then followed Ms Ann to the toilet 2 wash her hands.
I;m going 2 pick her up slightly earlier later, 2 see if she's coping well. Haiz, hope it's gonna b better tomorrow.

Tokyo, here I come!!!
Wah, time really flies! I remembered booking the tickets abt 1.5 mths ago, hotel abt 3-4 weeks ago, then YES, tomorrow, we'll be flying off to Tokyo=)
This time round, we'll be staying @ 2 different hotels. 1 @Haneda cos by the time we arrived, it'll b almost mid-night, so better stay somewhere nearby since transportation in Japan isn't cheap =p
I wonder if Mummy is thrill, cos it's gonna b her 1st time visiting Japan =) Its gonna b my 3rd time there so not really that excited, instead am hoping that Kion & Mummy would enjoy this trip. Kelvin, as usual, is only keen on Hard Rock & had been asking me 2 locate the directions 2 get 2 the HRC @Ropponggi as thats the only place in Tokyo which he still doesn't have the T-shirts.... Me, I've already found out that there's a Goyard in Shinjuku, & cant wait 2 find out if they still carries the pink colour ones.
Oh ya, didnt get the DSLR in the end as didnt had enough time 2 really understand the Canon & salesperson wasn't being of any help when she kept pushing me 2 buy a Sony instead...=( Anyway, maybe by August, B4 I go 2 Melbourne, I shall get 1, & know it real well...
Okok, quick update on Kion, she will b going 2 Lorna Whiston when we come back from Tokyo & yes, she will b turning 3yrs on the 10th =) She told me last night that I am her 'darling' & She's mine 'darling', isn't it sweet=)
Sometimes, I feel that she is the only reason y I'm around, she is my Everything=)

My 2011 Resolution???
Yes, 2011 resolution!!!
Ok, for those who knows me well enough would surely had guessed correctly; what else can it be than to lose some extra kilos...=p
I know I had spend half of my 27yrs of life trying 2 lose weight without much success & maybe I should just give up, but who doesn't wanna b prettier, thinner, or maybe I should say, just weighing slightly above being under-weight=p
Anyway, Kion's starting school after we return from Tokyo & with the longer school hours, hope I can shed some kilos from doing extra classes @Amore.
Time flies, Its already the 4th day of yr2011. It also mean that Cynthia has left us for 1yr 4days.... I will always remember this dear friend of mine, she was a darling to me....
Life is full of irony, Cynthia & I were so different, so different we were that it seems like being BFF was the last thing possible. Yet maybe this is what called 'opposite attracts'.
We knew each other since days @PYPS, I was a transferred student & didnt had many friends. She was in the last class while I was in the 3rd. She played volleyball & was in our school team while I played basketball.
I rememeberd seeing her cheering 4 me during 1 of the basketball tournament we had with AMK PS. The volleyball team had just finished their game & Cynthia urged the teachers 2 go support our basketball team=)
Cynthia & I always hung out together bcos @ that time, Daddy & Mummy were too busy with their biz & sad 2 say, neglected me. My after school days would be 2 hang ard in their shop till 10pm when they close shop. As Cynthia was the rebellious one, always didnt wanna stay @home, we would always stick @places near my parents shop 2 pass time. Our fav hung-out when we were 12yrs, were the basketball courts @Khatib. She was always very out-spoken, making conversation with the guys @the basketball courts, borrowing basketballs from them so that we could play our own game. With her around, I was never lonely & didnt have 2 be afraid. She was forever protecting me like a big sister caring 4 her younger sis...
As we grew older, my character didnt changed & neither did hers. I think the only common interest we had after 18yrs old, was 'drinking', sad 2 say, maybe 'binge drinking'... We were always drinking together, partying together & even Kelvin, my hubby, was screened through by her, in fact, highly recommended by her, as a good choice 2 me.
Yet after getting married` & pregnant, the time I had for Cynthia seems to b lesser & lesser... The last time we counted down for X'mas was in 2009, I still carry the chain she gave me in my bag... As Kion grew older, I began 2 concentrate on her more & slowly neglected not only my friends, but also my own social life. It is only then that I began 2 realize y didnt my mummy had any close friends, cos I'm slowly beginning 2 turn like her, turning down parties & such just 2 spend the nights with Kion....
I still remembered Cynthia calling me @0000 on 1-1-2010 to wish me Happy New Year! She promised 2 go 2 Kion's Bday celebration, told me about her dreams finalising & so many things that it was really unbelivable when Rykiel called me the next day telling me that she was gone =(
Life is really too unpredictable, we will never know what is gonna happen next... Dear Cynthia, I miss u! I really misses u a great big deal! Sometimes when I sit down & think of u, I still cant accept the fact that u r gone forever...
