There's a thieve!!!

These two doggies were very obedient. We met them outside the coffeeshop. Wan Qi wanted to touch them but the owner said they bite so upon hearing that Wan Qi decided not to touch.

Wan Qi insisted on climbing down the stairs by herself and if you tried to hold her she will start all over again. She will go up to the top again and come down by herself. Xihong laughed and said restart restart whenever she did that.

Science lesson for Wan Qi haha! we introduce the plant mimosa to her.

Brought Wan Qi to a Tampines neighbourhood yesterday and we had our dinner there. Half way through, Xihong said he wanted to go and put one more car coupon so I waited in the coffee shop for him. While I was waiting, I noticed that my knapsack was gone so I thought he took it away and didnt pay much attention to it.

But after waiting for a while, I decided to look for him. I looked inside the car but couldnt see my knapsack so I asked him where is it. Then he said he didnt see it. Oh shit I thought to myself, my wallet and camera was inside my knapsack then I said :"Someone must have taken it while i was feeding Wan Qi!!!!"

Wan Qi heard me saying and added on "There is a thieve. He had stolen our bag. Papa go and chase him!" Upon hearing this, I was like Wow amazing she know how to use the word thieves and steal and even know how to ask papa to chase the thieve. I thought that was quite clever of her. :) Then I quickly asked Xihong to chase the "thieve".

When Xihong came back with the knapsack, he told me that he caught the person who stole our bag and I asked him several times "is it is it" then he burst out laughing and said no lah the bag was on the chair. aiyo me really sotong luckily nobody took the knapsack while I went to the carpark.

Wan Qi's Lizard Nightmare

Wan Qi's mummy which is me is terrified of lizards. Whether it is a toy lizard or worse a real one, I am scared of it. Two days ago, a notorious student of mine brought a toy lizard into the class to scare people. Though I tried very hard to pretend that I am not scared, in the end I still gave up and asked Hui Li for help. Of course, the students had a great laugh.

Back at home, I complained to Xihong and I forgot if Wan Qi was present at that point of time. But I guess most probably she was. Cos yesterday night, Wan Qi suddenly screamed in her dream. Both Xihong and I got a fright. Then she shouted Lizard! Lizard! in mandarin and started crying in her dream. We woke her up from her dream and comforted her that there isnt any lizard. I also asked Xihong to pretend to throw the lizard out of the window. But she still said" no no its still over there." Then we had to reassured her before she went back to sleep. Poor thing, she inherited this fear from me. Sigh I also tried very hard not to show my fear for lizard in front of Wan Qi so that she wont be afraid but still she knew it. In fact, she knew when she was about 17mths old. There was once when my maid flipped those animal books that happens to have lizard, she actually told my maid "mama scared lizard". And my maid told me when I came back from work. Well, it was all because whenever there is a lizard at home, I will shout for my maid to help me. So Wan Qi probably heard me shouting lo. :P


Anyway, I told this to the principal and the boy was being suspended from school. Yipee revenge taken for Wan Qi. hahaha no la just kidding. The notorious boy together with another girl in my class were being suspended for other reasons. Sigh dont know what these kids are up to.

Anyway, hope Wan Qi is better today.

Wan Qi's Big Day - First Day of School at Talent Plus

On 1st July 2008, Wan Qi is all prepared to go to school. She has been looking forward to this day. After her first visit to the school, she will always drag me to her school while we were walking to PunggolPlaza.
It was a busy morning for all of us. I was busily preparing breakfast for her, bathing her, feeding her and dressing her. My mum laughed and said Wan Qi seems to be going to University - such a grand day. haha




















Unfortunately, Talent Plus didnt turn out to be a good choice. On the very first day of school
the management was late. Parents waited for half an hour outside the school. They did a last minute mopping before the school starts. Sign.

I helped to let the kids form a circle to sing songs cos the teachers are not able to do so. Yes even when there are 3 teachers around. Sign.

Wan Qi listening attentively to the teacher.

In the end, after attending 5 days of lesson and paid an amt of $295 for the fees, I decided to stop sending Wan Qi to Talent Plus. The reason being the school is in a mess. The teachers are not able to handle the kids whose ages ranges from 18mths to 3 yrs old. Many times those younger kids nearly topple on Wan Qi cos they were wobbling around. There was once, a stranger came in and a boy nearly went out with him, luckily i was around to bring him in and the worst thing was the 3 teachers didnt notice it.

Then during the session, Wan Qi always come and tell me that school is over , she wants to go home. Subsequently its worse she told me that she doesnt want to go to school. Then I understoody why when i accompanied her on Youth Day. Simply becos the place is like a crying hell. There were no proper lessons being conducted and the children are crying like crazy and the teachers dont know what to do with them. They simply give them toys and play dough for them to play on their own. Worse some of the kids put those play dough in their mouths and the teachers didnt notice again. Phew after all these i thought i really should forgo the $295, cos i dont want Wan Qi to develope a phobia in schools. She have always love school - Shichida. She is always asking us When is Sunday? When is she going to Shichida? I must really reconsider of sending her back to Shichida. I guess.

Wan Qi insisted on taking the Care Bear train

After we came out from the Escape Theme

we went to have our dinner. Then we proceeded to watch the Care Bear show which was nothing great but Wan Qi was very happy as she manage to kiss the Care Bear.

Then she saw the Care Bear train and insisted on taking the train. Sign it was ex six bucks per ride plus adult have to pay too. Nonetheless, we still took it. And guess what, when we alighted the train, Wan Qi saw two boys who wanted to come in and take the train, Wan Qi told them Gor Gor you can t take the train because you didnt buy tickets. Upon hearing that i nearly fainted, and I have to tell her that the Gor Gor had bought the tickets but she still insisted that they didnt. Goodness!! She is a real bossy girl. Thats why i dedcided to send her to school so taht she can interact with the children.

Escape Theme Park on 29th June

Brought Wan Qi to the Escape Theme Park on 29th June as Lih Ling passed two tickets to me. So I thought why not since I personally have not been there before plus its quite ex. Dont think I will go on my own if i have to pay for it. haha thanks Lih ling.

We reach there about five plus and Wan Qi only started to play about six plus cos she was sleeping soundly in her stroller.

After she had woke up we went to sit on the ferri wheel. Its a nice ride for the whole family. We even go for two rides.

Then Wan Qi get to sit on the airplane too. We thought it wasnt too thrilling for her so we just go for it.

Then we took the choo choo train and Wan Qi get to sit on those toy car and scooter too. But i realise she is not very familiar with these cars. And we have to guide her along cos she cant really coordinate her hands and foot. But after many attempts she finally
know how to ride them. Phew!! I was still blaming myself for not buying all these cars for her to play.

Hee look at Wan Qi 's monkey face. She had fun with this piglet box which i saw it in Guifen's house.

I bought it and Wan Qi decided to become jack in the box that nite.

WanQi and the NTUC trolley

Wan Qi always like to sit on the trolley then she will help us to put the things that we bought into the trolley. But nowadays she attempts to stand up in the trolley which made me furious.
