It's the 7th day of the lunar new year and this day is known as Everyone's Birthday. :)

Grand mummy prepared a dish of 7 different types of vegetables. It's a dish we have every year. 
Yummy! Haha. 

And we had our yu sheng. C was grinning when she discovered we would be tossing because she absolutely loves this dish and especially the salmon in it. This is about the only dish where she doesn't pick on her vegetables.

"Huat ah!"

Work before play

Precious did a fair bit of work this evening. She started out with her revision for English Spelling and then went on to practise her Math.

They were simple pattern recognition about addition and subtraction.

Then she went on to complete her Chinese homework.


After the serious work, she spent some time playing with her play-doh. :) Soon, it will be story-reading time and she would call it a night.

Cheryl did an art work to usher in the Year of the Dragon.


Daddy teased her and commented that it looked more like an earthworm. Hahaha but Precious said very convincingly that it was a dragon. :)

Several years back, we have developed this culture of dressing in similar styles when it was the new year. Actually, we do it even when it isn't the new year too. Haha.

I always get tees that are of similar designs or colour and this year, we were decked out in the latest craze; Abercrombie & Fitch. :)

:) nice! and I love the cheery colours.

Cheryl wishes her teachers...

Even in her pre school days, C and I had this habit of sending her teachers little well wishes and this year we continued this tradition.

Last year, we packed our mandarin oranges in the same manner for her teachers at Josiah too. However, when she realised that we had only prepared for 4 teachers, she exclaimed very loudly, "What about the other teachers?" Ha ha!

I had to explain to her that the number of staff in a primary school could amount to as many as 80 people and we would not be able to prepare the packages for all of them. She smiled and agreed that as long as the teachers who teach her received them, she was happy. :) We wrapped up the oranges and put a personalised ang bao at the front. Of course, Precious put her name down.

Math on the Internet

This evening, C returned with A note from Ee teacher. Precious can now log in a site that the school has subscribed and practise her math.

The website has several math concepts and topics put in place and Precious can go through the topics and solve the problem sums online.

C tried some sums on Money and she had the sums corrected online too.


Each time the online tutor told her that she had done the sum correctly, Precious broke out in a grin. :) We did not have to pay any subscription this year and since Precious liked the exercises so much, I think we will be visiting this site very often.

This evening, C said she wanted to practise singing her school anthem and school creed.

She had music class today and she was happy that she had learned the songs.


The School Anthem


The School Creed

When we purchased our books from the book store, we had to get this disc too and it was good that these important songs are in there because then we can practise singing the songs at home. C is rather diligent, she was looking at the creed and learning the bibical verses.

Life as a pupil...

This week, with school in full swing, Precious returned with homework.


Daddy and I whisked her off for ballet after she slighted from her bus ride. She changed into her dance gear in the car and arrived just in time for her class with Ms Blue.

An hour later, she was back and after her shower and dinner, we sat down to complete her homework: Social Studies and Math. Precious also learned her Spelling for next week. :)

C has been to school for 3 days now and she is managing well. She had been well taken care of by her senior and this very thoughtful Primary 5 girl gave Precious a parting gift.


The girl even wrote Precious a note.


C loved her little doggie and had it with her as she slept.

Tomorrow on, Precious will be on her own. A little weary, she asked to have her lunch box packed. Daddy assured her that she would be fine. :)
