The World @ My Fingertips

Towards the end of the year, or at the start of the new school term, we are bound to get asked if we can help fetch xyz back from school. How do you deal with that? If you are only fetching your kid to school, will you oblige to your friend’s/relative’s request? Let me share [...]

The kids are going back to school starting next week.Somehow, i dont seem to have enough time getting things ready for them. Books remain unwrapped, uniforms still in their wrinkled form, missing socks, and godknowswatelse, lol. And oh, i just happened to sharpen all their pencils and color pencils. They seem to bring back so [...]

Many people ask me why i dont send my kids to the kindy behind my house since it’s so convenient to just walk them over through the kitchen entrance. Well, to be honest with you, the quality of the teachers there sucks; big time. I’m not the kiasu kinda of parent who only wants to [...]
