Wow! Can you believe it? She’s not even SIX and she has to revise??? Well, if she wants to stay ahead with her peers and keep her marks above 95% then yes, she certainly has to revise!

Having said that, we only revised Bahasa last semester and she actually got better results. So of course, she used that against me, “See? I didn’t even study and I did better. What does that tell you? I should NOT study in future!”

Dream on little lady…….

I do feel sorry for her and the rest of the kids. Even at seven, I feel that our kids are too taxed for Standard One work, what more at five plus.

Today was the Hubs first day at home so I managed to have some alone time with T1 at Nana’s place (she goes to Nana’s every weekend, remember?) and what did we do? We spent an hour revising for her English paper. It was very slow moving as little missy was very tired from her gym class and not in the mood to revise at all but it was our only opportunity to revise this weekend so I told her why she had to do it. Or NO IPAD!!!

Earlier I had threatened her, if you don’t eat your vegetables, then no cupcakes. Nana, bless her, is baking every other day and it is MAKING ME MISS PIGGY MAMA. Nana bakes the best cupcakes and today, she baked an apple crumble. What did T1 say to my threat? “No cupcakes then! I don’t care!”

Grumpily and sulkily, she rudely answered all my English Language questions (plurals, past-tensed, gender, similes, homonyms, opposites, vocabulary); and I didn’t understand what the big deal was. It is ENGLISH, and she knew almost all the answers. So finally, Mommy was comforted that she knew her English quite well so allowed her the ipad. Suddenly her tiredness lifted and she bounced up like she’d struck gold.

Meanwhile, Tok-Tok and Nana were grumbling about why a little girl had to study so hard to me, but they didn’t interfere. So I told them to go look into the matter then!

T1 showing off her ipad. Tok-Tok having a rest in the background because fasting is energy depleting……

Speaking of fasting, T1 came home saying she wanted to fast too because she learnt about fasting in school. What in the world for? She said she just wanted to but I suspect the real reason is because the school food is crap.
