Yesterday I made a cat out of coloured paper that one of my teachers prepared for us. Today I did a show-and-tell about my stuffed toy cat.
I am not sure how that happened. I think it had something to do with mama mentioning my kitty cat within earshot of the teacher. My teacher then suggested [...]
Papa says that I am his muse when it comes to blogging. Hey, I thought I was the one who was blogging all along!
Anyway, papa might be my muse when it comes to drawing! When we were asked to draw stuff in school, one of the things I decided to draw was papa!
This is what [...]
I am mama’s packet of tissue paper. You may be wondering how…
This happened when I was at a food court with mama yesterday. Papa is normally with us, but in his absence mama asked me if I was brave enough to reserve our place (I am told that the correct term is “chope”).
Before she left, [...]
My folks tell me that I am a little horse today. Neigh-neigh.
Nay, nay! What they meant to say is that I am a little hoarse! (Who invented this language anyway?)
I have a sore throat and a gallopy nose, so I did not attend school today. With the exception of some grocery shopping and lunch with [...]
Earlier this week, a teacher tested our motor skills without telling us. When mama came to pick me up, my teacher told mama that I needed to develop some of my “gross motor skills”.
At first I did not know that she meant things like catching a ball without letting it bounce first. Or running in [...]
Papa and I had our haircuts at the usual Malay barber yesterday. As it was crowded, papa sat further in while I enjoyed a window seat.
Apparently one other person enjoyed the view too. A woman outside watched me as I got my hair cut. Then she actually came in and said to the barber, “Very [...]
For some strange reason, mama decided to use some Chinese phrases on me. When I heard her speak, I told her, “Mama, you cannot speak in Chinese!”
Mama asked, “Why?”
I replied, “Because you are not Chen lao shi!”
It was then that I found out that mama used to be a teacher too. I was also told [...]
Happy birthday to pa-paaaaaa, happy birthday to you-uuuu!
Yes, today was papa’s birthday, but we did not have cake. We had Ramly burger instead! (I told you that my folks are weird!)
So how old is my old man? If you ask me, I’ll say that he is five (mama is four and I am three). Papa [...]
Yes, that is my new favourite phrase: “If you say so!”
Why? It is fun to say. It also sounds agreeable and dismissive at the same time! I use it when my folks give me their answers to questions like “Why?” or “What are we doing next?” or “Where are we going?”
So I ask you: What’s [...]
I like Fridays. It’s the last day of the school week and the start of the weekend. I also get to stay up a bit later than usual and my folks let me Wii a lot more. (Did that sound odd?)
When I can’t convince one of my folks to challenge me to a Wii Sports [...]
