Starry, starry night

Thursday, November 5th, 2009

I have a new night light in my room. Make that night lights… a whole string of them!
Mama wanted some Christmas lights from IKEA so we got some. There are some on our side table and our feature wall in the living room.
One string of LED lights was too short, but papa thought of a [...]

Wig!

Wednesday, November 4th, 2009

As I was walking home with mama and papa yesterday, I spotted a man walking towards us. He was bald.
Is that the word to use? Or should I have said melon head, botak, or follicle-challanged?
Anyway, as we got closer, I pointed at him and said, “That man needs to wear a wig!” Papa shushed me [...]

Moebius

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

I learned about the moebius strip at school today. It’s got something to do with being able to walk along the entire strip without crossing an edge.
It’s got nothing to do with taking off your clothes in a fancy way without crossing a line! Hee-hee!

Bags are LEGO

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

While mama occupied herself by shopping yesterday, I spent the afternoon swimming at a friend’s place.
Mama wanted another new handbag. I did not understand why until papa told me that handbags are to mama what LEGOs are to me. Ah, I see! I also see why she is collecting them in many different colours!

Uplifting

Saturday, October 31st, 2009

Everyday is an adventure because I make it so.
Have I told you about how I like to take the elevator on my own? I can’t remember if I have. But anything worth telling is worth telling twice!
When I get some from school, I look forward to running down a ramp that leads from the carpark [...]

Tooth storage

Friday, October 30th, 2009

Papa likes to say that even though I have half of his DNA and half of mama’s, I have 90% of mama’s genetic expression and only 10% of his.
His latest discovery was that mama and I both store food in our teeth the same way. What he meant to say was that food gets stuck [...]

Gila monster

Thursday, October 29th, 2009

Last week, one of my classmates brought a book to school and one of my teachers decided to read it to us.
She reached the part about a reptile called a gila monster. She pronounced it “geela”, but I knew it was pronounced “heela”. So I told her. When I got back from school, I told [...]

Futuristic farming

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

I am learning about futuristic farming in my junior Science programme at school.
Yesterday, our teacher told us about hydroponics. Then we made our own salad out of some vegetables. Mine had lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers and some crackers.
I had some of my salad for dinner, but the crackers were soggy. Perhaps they shouldn’t have tried growing [...]

Caterpillars!

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

I have two caterpillars!
Some of papa’s trainees did a presentation yesterday, and for some reason or other, they had excess caterpillars. Is this a new  presentation format that I am not aware of?
In any case, I am not complaining. I was so excited to see them. I am more excited now because one has already [...]

Combined happiness!

Monday, October 26th, 2009

What a weekend I had…
On Friday, mama had a girls’ evening out so papa and I had a boys’ evening out. We bought Spore Hero for the Wii. It is so much more fun than the one for the iPod Touch because my creature is now on land!
We also found out that grandpa won some [...]
