Year End 2017
Coming to year end. Year 2018 will be coming very soon.
What have I been doing for the year 2017? Looking for job...looking for job and looking for job everyday hahaha...... Yes have been looking for job since day one of 2017 and I finally start my new job on August 2017. Have been working for 4 months. So far so good,enjoyed working with my colleagues and working environment. Although I have no annual leave, I still can take leave hahaha (no pay leave) :( Beside working, I still continue my baking. Have a chance to try new recipe which I was very happy with it. I baked shortbread which I never baked before. I tried different flavor of butter cake too. And the most happy thing was I found a good recipe for my biscotti. Yeah.......yeah..... wish that I can find times to bake for Chinese new year. That;s all for me.
Let's mention about my gal. This year is her 1st year of secondary school. She does struggle abit at the beginning of the year. Maybe because of the increase of subjects. There are subjects that she never study at primary school.She picked up quite fast and do well for her class test. Although she did not do well in her PSLE (as what I expected her to get) i'm very pleased with her secondary school result.This year end, we received 2 pleasant surprise from our letter box and we really really never think of her getting this award. She received the Edusave Good Progress Award who are within the top 10% of the level. The other is Edusave certificate of Academic Achievement who are within the top 25%. Felt very proud of her. She is not the genius type but she really put in effort and hardwork to achieve .
Continue doing that Mummy wish that you can get into pure science.

We had another short gateaway on the 24th Nov. Although we already have our holiday during the June holiday, we went for another one to Melaka with my mum and sis. A 3 days shopping and feasting trip. Looking around Jonker Street with another aspect. Cruising along the Melaka River was relaxing. Finding the wall murals along Joker street.

School Holidays
School holidays(31st Oct) started early for secondary school students.It started 3 weeks earlier than the primary school.As I started to work,I really have no time to bring her out .Unless I have to take leave unpaid leave.So far I brought her out last Thursday having some quality time with her.We went for brunch followed by shopping.
I think she will look forward to our next holiday - Road trip to Malacca. Although is a short trip (3 days)at least we have some bonding times doing things together, having fun together.Don't you think this is the most important things.This is our 3rd road trip to 3 different countries and we really enjoyed it.It really feel different from taking public transport in that country.
After the Malacca,there will be one month left to 2018 and school will re-open and she will be in Sec 2.Times really really flies.
Her results was good. Is "good" a good phase to describle her result? Or should I use satisfy?Out of 8 subjects,she has scored 5 As.She has to put in double effort for sec 2 in order to go into pure science.

Our Taiwan Holiday - June 2017
Our trip to Taiwan started at the beginning of the June holiday. We went there for 10 days. Our 1st time experience the super heavy rain in Taiwan. The whole Taiwan has been raining non-stop for 3-4 days.The rain started when we started our journey to Cinjing farm. On the way there,we stopped at Sun Moon Lake (日月潭 )but too bad the rain and wind started here. We not able to walk down to our destination.We sat in the café for a drink hope that the rain will stop. Too bad the rain did not stop.
We drove up the mountain to cinjing farm. The mountain road was very scary especially during this rainy weather. We drove really slow and finally we reach the ming su.
We missed out a few places because of the rain.We did not go to the cinjing farm (a must go when you are at cinjing) .We can only stay in and watched tv programme. Lucky for us, on the last day at ming su the rain finally stop and we were able to take a good look at the beautiful scenery.From there we drove to Taichung.We stayed there for only one nite.From Taichung,we took the bullet train to Taipei. At Taipei we finally got to see Mr Sunshine but it was too scorching.At Taipei,we went to 十分瀑布,九份老街,淡水老街,阳明山国家公园 etc.A lot of walking and climbing for this trip.My poor legs seem going to break.
Overall for this trip: we had a 有惊无险 experience. We not sure walked and climbed how many millions steps to view the fantastic and stunning scenery. It was all worth it (although my leg is breaking) and we are home safety.

SA1 2017
Her 1st Mid-year exam (SA1) had over and result had came out. I could say that she did quite well.There are a few subjects she did well (A1).The only subject that did not do well is her art. I don't blame her as all along (since primary school) her art & craft is not very well done.Now in secondary school art is so different from what I had when I was in secondary school.
Last nite,her physic teacher text them in the group chat for their overall result and she was in the Top 10 position (she is in 6th position) and she had A1.I can proudly say that she so far so good and did better than in primary school.Although I know that I cannot compare primary and secondary level. I said better doesn't mean she done badly in primary school. Her primary school results are above average or even better than above average from P1 to P5 .She had received awards in school and outside school. Until she go to P6,her result started to drop abit .Although I am not very satisfied with her PSLE, I wish that she can do very well in secondary school. Received more medals and awards.
This is only the beginning of her secondary school life and there are still 3 more years to go and I know is too early to judge how well she is doing but I wish she can continue her hardwork. I know is not an easy task but try your very best. I very sure you can do it because you are a smart girl.

Mid-Year Exam
Today is her 1st Mid-Year Exam. her 1st paper started today which is chinese paper 1.
Although is mid-year exam ,I don't really feel the stress like what I have when she is in primary school.I think this type of feeling should be a good one so that I won't give her any stress or pressure. No stress and pressure from me meaning that she will do well.
Since she entered secondary one, I don't really stress her on her studies. I don't know why. Maybe I had been doing for the past 6 years or maybe I'm getting lazy or maybe I'm getting old Hahahaha......
Whenever she has chinese test (in fact she has test almost every week), I did not even revise with her.Sometimes only let her do assesment book,mark and go through,that's all.Marks for her tests,so far so good.A few of the subjects she even top in class.Recently there was a chinese test on email writing ,she told me she is the highest in class and teacher put up on the transparency to let the class see. I'm so proud of her. Another subject is Food & Nutrient,teacher gave her a lollipo for the top 3 in class.
I really hope that she can continue to keep up the good work. Next year is an important year. If result is good,she will have more subjects choices to choose for her sec 3.

Cuteness
Recently Facebook have been popping up some photos of Val when she was small which I posted a few years back. It gave me memory of her when she is before 7 years old as she looked so so cute at that age.Her yi yi missed her cuteness hahaha..... Mummy missed it too. She really have the cuteness and sweetly pie look.
Children really grown up too fast until I don't even able to catch up with her growing. Now she already a teenager and in no time she is an adult and get married OH My God! Why is times seem like flying. Can time please slow down? Mummy and Daddy will be old if you become and adult.
Last night (28/2) she told us a few of her test marks and I told her she done well and keep up the good job. And I wanted to reward her so I asked her what she want? She told me she wanted to have a CUP of gong cha ("Fainted")Hahahaha.... You must have many question marks above you head why did she requested this instead of other things? Because I don't let her drink those sweet drink.
I found that I have very little quality time with her since she entered secondary school and also because I worked in the half day afternoon instead of morning. I will find time with her when holiday started.

School Life
It had been nearly 2 months after school started.She adapted her secondary school life very well and she enjoyed it so far. She had been participated in her school west zone-C division girls table tennis competition.This is her 1st ever competition and she perform well.She is playing double and won 6 matches to the other school.Her school came in 5th position.Medals only awarded to 1st-4th position. Well Done!
She had been going through many common tests since January and she done well too (except Bio). She had make pizzas and shepard pie during her Food & Nutrition. She had given up the opportunity of going into the Higher Mother Tongue class. I let her make the decision herself after telling her all the good and bad points.I hope that she will not regret making this decision when she is taking her O level.
We only given her Maths and English tuition till now.I hope that we no need to add on any subjects for her.CCA is the things that she enjoyed the most in school and she wish that she can have an understanding perform in table tennis.She want to take part in all the competition and win many medals.Wish her wish come true.

2017 - 1st Day of Her Secondary School Life
Today is her 1st day of Secondary School.
This mornig she woke up a bit early than her usual time when she was in Primary school.As today is the 1st day of school,Daddy said have to go out early to prevent traffic jam and also to time the timing . They reached school at 7am so it was consider early as school start at 7.25am.
This whole week is the Sec 1 orientation camp.There are activities for them so school will end at 4pm (today) and 5pm.I'm worried that she can't get use to her secondary school life.Of course the timing is different from primary school.She may stay up to 6.30pm (estimated) on certain day for her CCA.It will be a long day in school.It will be quite tiring for her too as she has to travel about half and hour journey.
After all,I hope that she enjoy her school life as what she did in primary school and wish that she can done well in the 4 year of secondary school.Wish her all the best in her study

Released of PSLE Result 2016
It's OUT yesterday (24/11). We reach the school at 10.45am. The principle given talks follow by the released of the results.Results is given out according to class.
When received and known about it,my feeling for the outcome is not very satisfied and felt sad.My expectations for her is 3A and 1B but I never expect that one of her subject she got X for it.And this make her T-score lower.If she had a better grade for this subject ,she may have a better T-score.She really can do better than this.I doubt that she must be feeling nervous during the exam time which can't see and don't even know .During that period,only she knows herself best.She might feel nervous or she had not enough time for the paper,who's know.(i told her many time take it as a normal school exam so that she won't feel nervous) I'm glad that she no need to choose between Normal /Express if not that will be another headache thing to decide.
My wish for her is that she can continue her hard work after entering secondary school.Secondary school life will be totally different from primary school.It will be another not easy task.Subjects will be double of what she had in primary school.Studying is already not easy ,some more have to sit for exam.Like what some people say some perform not good for the PSLE but they did very well in their secondary school exam especially for the O level.I hope that she is this type of student.
**daddy also feel that her result not very good**
I really feel sad and cry secretly

Third Paper-Chinese
Today is Chinese Paper.
I already tried my very best to revise with her.Last Friday and over the weekend ,I had spent time revising with her.But I still find that my time is not enough for her and I wish that I have 48hrs in a day.This is not a last minutes revision of course.
My wish for chinese is A* but is not an easy task to aim.Really have to score well for compo,LC and oral.But her compo is not very well written and it will deduct marks if content is not good.Another hope is to do well for paper 2 so as to pull up the marks.She has to do well before the open ended comprehension questions.What do I mean to do well ? Meaning that she cannot make any mistakes for MCQ questions(OAS) (the most 2 mistake).
Wish her all the best of the chinese paper.
