Classroom Stories From Cass

Cass today… Cass – mummy, you know, today J touched my… butt! Me (GASPED!) – what? WHY?? Cass – I was walking in the classroom and he used his hand to touch my butt when I passed his desk. Me – did you tell your class teacher? Cass – yes and teacher whacked J on…

Awesome Pawsome Cass

Last night, I felt really blessed.  While everyone else was watching TV, Cass gave me a massage on my problematic right hand.   Actually I had forgotten all about massaging my hand to loosen  the taut muscles and veins. I have hand numbness and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The physiotherapist that we saw on Wednesday taught…

School Stories From Cass – 11 March 2015

Cass came back from school yesterday with her school bag that looked as if it was about to burst out its contents at anytime. I helped her carry it and gawd, my shoulder was lop-sided and it hurt! I think her school bag weighed over 7kg, at least. Cass told me that the principal informed…

School Stories From Cass – 6 March 2015

Cass came back from school today with  hair that looked as if she was just caught in a typhoon. Her plastic bun holder was almost falling off from her hair. The black hair clips were dangling loosely from her hair. Strands of hair were straying everywhere. I was curious to know why her hair was…

Conversation with my school-loving Cass yesterday… Cass – mummy, today A got beaten by the BM teacher for not doing her homework! Me – Oh no!! Did A cry? C – no Me – and what did the teacher say to A for not doing her homework? C-  Cikgu Ch** said “now I beat with…

Life Of A Primary 1 Girl

This is a daily affair for Cass on a school-going day – she comes home from school at 2ish pm, washes up, has her lunch and after lunch, she gets so knackered that she snoozes away for at least an hour… at the dining table! Sometimes she dozes off while sitting on the throne in…

Cheongsam Girl

Cass this afternoon – just back from school in her CNY outfit for  CNY performance in school today… Can you guess how old this cheongsam is? Alycia wore this cheongsam only once when she was 3 years old!  I think Sherilyn never wore it.  And my soon-to-be 7YO baby girl can still wear it!  And…

Cassandra’s Pop Piano Course

Cass at her fourth pop piano lesson at Yamaha on Saturday…   Cass is now pretty familiar with the do-re-mis, A B Cs and counts of each note and which key on the piano representing which note. At her 4th lesson on Saturday (14 Feb 2015), her teacher taught her to play Twinkle Twinkle Little…

Random Updates

I have been  so so super duper busy the past week. Well, I should say I have not been free since the start of school on 12 January 2015. As with other years, orders at my online store have been very high around this time as CNY is less than 2 weeks away. Plus I…

Cass’ First Two Days In Primary School

For the past two days, I spent my entire morning in the school. It was Cass’ first two days in Primary 1.  By the time we reached home after lunch, it was already close to 3pm. I konked out by evening but had to force my eyes to open till 11pm before I dropped dead…

Lovesick Cass

Cass is lovesick ever since her 2 sisters and grandma left for Auckland yesterday morning.  She  was down and broody the whole day and kept asking me whether her che ches have reached NZ. I made her favorite grilled herbs and turmeric drumsticks for dinner but even when she savored the drumstick, she put one…

Cass Says The Darndest Things

Just now Cass was commenting on how big my tummy was (again)! Cass – mummy, your tummy is SO BIG! (and then hits it like a drum!) Me – yeah, thanks to YOU! Cass – why me??  YOU are the one who wanted 3 kids.  Don’t blame me OK! See see see… see lar… only…

Early Shopping For Cass

Yesterday we went to Mid Valley Megamall for dinner and then brought Cass to shop for her school uniform and school shoes! Yup I know I am a tad early but if I do not shop for the new school stuff now, I am afraid that we won’t have much time. At the start of…

Of Bushy Eyebrows and Light Eyebrows

I have always wished that I have thicker, more refined and more shapely eyebrows. My brows are very light in color (and sparse), as are my hair color (which is brown) and my skin color. I have very fair skin and I guess God has made my eyebrows light colored to match my overall color…
