Proud Moment

I’m bursting with pride and joy as I share the news of Cass’s recent triumph at the Skate Malaysia Figure Skating Competition, Delta Level. Watching her glide gracefully across the rink, executing her routine flawlessly, was a moment I’ll cherish forever. Her performance was nothing short of spectacular, and I knew right then that she…

Cass Reads Roald Dahl’s Books

Cass is growing up too fast. With 2 older tween sisters who are currently into pop music and novels that teenagers read, Cass is following her sisters’ foot steps too. Yesterday, Cass started to read Charlie And The Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl and got hooked on it. Her 2 older sisters are currently reading…

Cassandra’s Graduation From Kindergarten – Sunday, 21 September 2014

It was a glitzy affair and made to look like a university graduation!  The graduation ceremony was held at the Sunway Pyramid Convention Centre (SPCC) on Sunday, 21 September 2014. Yes at a convention centre – don’t play play! My beloved parents were there to witness Cass’ graduation too.   We reached Sunway Pyramid at 2:30pm…

Cass’ Reading Progress

Today while I was helping Cass to shower, she suddenly remembered something that transpired in kindy in the morning during English lesson. Cass – mummy, do you know teacher A gave me a STAR and a “VERY GOOD” in my reading today!? Me – really? *with face all perked up though I was almost going…

Our Saturday – 26 October 2013

My parents have just returned to Ipoh. I am sure going to miss them a lot after having them with us for almost 2 weeks. Alycia and Sherilyn’s final exam ended yesterday but Alycia would have to sit for the Science and Math test papers in English on Monday. Cass’ final exam is also starting…

Cassandra’s First Written Journal

Monkey see monkey do.  Alycia and Sherilyn are required to write a daily journal. This is part of my efforts to help them to improve their writing skill, both in BM and English.  Every evening at around 7ish pm, reminders of “Have you written your daily journal?” resonates in the house, without fail.  Alycia has…

Exam Season Yet Again

It’s the most dreaded time of the year again. This time, I have 3 times the amount of stress as Cass is in her 2nd last year of kindy and has to sit for the twice-yearly exam as well.  Today, I spent my morning doing revision with Cass.  It is a kindy holiday for Cass…

Cassandra’s First Swimming Lesson

At 4 years 9 months, my baby girl finally attended her first swimming lesson. She did pretty well, was very excited and was totally not afraid of the water. She’s a born water baby 🙂 The very first practice that the swimming instructor taught her was to submerge her head in the water in the…

Loving Math

My baby girl loves Math more than reading. She never fails to bug me for Math sums whenever she is bored waiting for something, like when we are waiting for our food to arrive or when we are in a car ride. At 4.8 years old, she can solve 2-number additions up to 20+. 5…

Cassandra’s 1st Art Piece From Art Class

Cass attended her very first art class last Friday.  Her excitement in attending her very first art class was shown all over her, which she took no effort to contain.  The day before her art class, she kept asking me if I was really, really sending her for art class.  And I took advantage of…

Cassandra’s First Day Of Kindy!

My baby girl finally went to kindy today! She is exactly a week away from her 4th birthday. She has missed 1 year of kindy meant for 3 year olds last year but I hope that this isn’t a big problem for her to catch up with her peers. The syllabus used in this pre-school…

Tons of Patience

Of my 3 girls, I think Cassandra has the most patience or should I say, she has the longest attention span in whatever she does. She also has nimble fingers and likes fixing things like jig saw puzzles, building stuff with Lego blocks and today I found out that she is also a handy-girl! Just…
