As if the previous post wasn’t enough bane, we parents even have to look forward to class parties ever so often; each time they complete a concept – like purple, oval or number 5. Whenever these parties are scheduled, your child has to come to school in said colour, have something in said shape and said number. This is all work for me. *GRUNT*
Last fornight was the said moment of trauma. Yes, I really do get traumatised whenever I see a notice in her school bag that I have to WORK.
She chose her own purple clothes, even had to have purple panties and purple socks. Apparently, her boyfriend, who didn’t own a pair of purple socks didn’t want to attend school (purple day must wear purple socks!) so his Mom ‘tricked’ him that navy blue was a type of purple. Haha…..!!
THEN. She wanted me to do the Bob Marley dreadlocks hairstyle for her. Aiyo….
So the night before, I spent half an hour braiding little sections of her hair before she slept. The next morning, she wanted to add a flower to one of her braids and asked me to twist it into a flower. Then she wanted to add some random clips onto her hair plus purple ribbons. She looked ridiculous but felt like she was attending the Oscar Ceremony.
I even had to dye purple hard boiled eggs because we had to bring in purple food. Just imagine, the Hubs and I, at midnight, fighting over the right shade of purple that won’t embarrass our daughter at school.
*sigh* This school thing……I might as well have a job.

I don’t think I will be bothered. Sound so tedious and stressful. What if I don’t have the said item at home?? Have to rush out to buy ah?? Forget about it.
I know I shouldn’t but I was laughing. Not at you though. What got me going was her hairstyle request the night before and especially all the additions the morning of. Poor You. That would be too much for me. I get stressed very easily and I may just be pulling hair out instead of braiding….Oops..did I just say that? 🙂
Aha..how tiring. this girl can really style her hair ah. so many pattern. so cute.
purple eggs? edible meh?
haha…do I sound fierce? I just feel stress if I were to go through that.
