Jared's surgery

He has been troubled by the lower lashes sticking to his eyes since last year..It initially started with a lot of poo in the eyes, then red and watery eyes all the time till we finally realised that it was the lashes which created so much problem.  On the 2nd review with the eye doctor, he pitied his condition and ordered surgery for him in 2 days...(usually, the gov doc would take 1 or 2 mth to schedule a surgery)..

There he is at the surgery center..arrived at 9:30am


crying cos was so worried of the procedure






talking to Kaylen..she was asking how was koko condition all the time via whatsapp..such a sweet girl..but of cos, Koko ignored her nonsense..


The anesthetic doc came to insert the needle at the hand..


The needle was used to administered the GA


Daddy went in with Jared, after he fall asleep, daddy came out..like in less than few minutes.


walking to the operating theatre


The whole procedure took less than 45mins..he even woke up before daddy reached...
No pain at all..


1st slip of apple juice


Ready to eat! He was fasting from the night before..when he was allowed to drink and eat was already close to 2pm


ready to go home..that was like 3pm+


He will be with this magnetic coil to reduce swollen for the next 7-9 days 24hrly..Good thing is he is not afraid of getting embarassed in school.


The cost of the surgery is about 3k, with 2k claimable from medisave.  I learnt that every single part of our body must position well and function well..that few strand of hair beneath the eyes can caused so much trouble!

Collection of the new car!

1 Apr 2015 marked the last day of our drive with the Honda Civic SFU6293A
It was with us for the past 10 yrs..going through with us through pregnancy till Jared is coming to 10yrs old..However towards the end, it was giving us quite a lot of problem, like when there's a traffic jam, the air con wont be cold..and the engine temp will go up, and the tyre also become so botak that it was rather dangerous to drive in rain..

And here comes the brand new Mazda3...I hope it can last us till Jared go army!

Kaylen's Ballet Exam (Primary)

Finally the exam is over! the exam itself was rather very relax, nothing needed from the parents.. and no practising from home also...But, she had to go extra lesson every Tue from January to End March...so those days she will leave the house at 8am and come home at night..Quite terrible!


I just loved how ballerinas look like!





Her reward ..Swenson lunch!




The bun that Ms Mc Cully tie for her..so neat and pretty

Visiting LKY's tribute & Family 1.6km Run challenge

Too many people at the parliament house, we couldn't brave the heart to join the queue..so decided to bring the kids to TPY CC instead.

The moment we stepped into the hall, the fresh flowers fragant smell filled the room..I regreted instantly not bring flowers ourselves..








We all wore white t shirt for the event..and before I go, I told Kaylen that my only white t shirt had a hole on it.  She said its ok,  you must learn from Mr Lee Kuan Yew, he also wear clothes with hole.

Family 1.6km Run Challenge
Jared insisted on practising for his upcoming NAPFA test to complete  the 1.6km run in 12min.  This is the 1st time 4 of us run at a proper padang.  So it was really obvious who can do it and who can't...And I can't believe we had a runner at home!  It was Kaylen's 1st time doing a run, she started off spinning really fast with big steps and she can run at least 2.5 laps without stopping..and finally when she completed the 4 lap, we were far behind doing our 3.5laps...I think she did a total of 6 laps altogether.


Jared is at the right edge of the picture


So God is very fair, gave Jared the brain, while Kaylen got the physique...But at times I really wish that Jared did not have the gifted which caused him sensitive to so many things and just be a happy & simple thinking kid like Kaylen..

Term 1 Update

GEP P4 @ CHS
Jared's school was so nice to send a term 1 feedback, basically he is ok with everything except the need to speak in ALL his classes and also check for accuracy before submit for Math worksheet.

I am still forever nervous about him in this GEP prog, although I knew we are coping better for his daily work, he somehow could complete his sch work faster and lesser problem. Still there were always numerous big, small assignment...Just like the March holiday, he was swam with 13 page of oral copying and memorising, Science ERM, debate booklet, ERP book review and I also got him to draft out his portfolio for SS.  It was likely completely no rest!

And finally I made him starts his Chinese Tuition with HuaCheng@ Thomson Plaza just a week ago..as I get panic too much with his bad Chinese standard..but I felt Hua Cheng's standard might be not good enough for his P4 GEP, after looking at the material.

P1@PCPS
Kaylen of cos still doing very well for her P1..She get to continue with her class monitor task for another term. And she has been very cautious with the boys copying her worksheet...

Kaylen's Grade 2 Violin Result

She came home feeling dissapointed as everyone expected her to get a distinction and she only managed at 122 merit, which is 1 mark lower than koko for the same grade...They both took G2 at P1..but we had much a breeze time with Kaylen..

Since we didn't send her to a prestigious sch, perhaps that's the best she could achieve...The main difference is the payable exam fees and extra class difference its up to 1k compared to Jared's sch..

We knew that with limited sch resource yet she can done so well..Well Done Kaylen! We knew that you tried your best!




Her oral, sight reading scales was quite comparable to koko...She didn't distinction cos too many marks deducted for the songs..

Survived 3D2N!

Jared survived the 3D2N Malacca camp with his school!  He did much better than we expected, set his own alarm clock, pack his bag, apply emu oil..

The moment he got down the bus, even though it was very late at 7.45pm, way passed his dinner time..he told me, Mummy I enjoyed the trip!

One thing for sure, he is not so good..Getting present for everyone at home!..He only bought 1 fridge magnet, 1 binocular and 1 torchlight/laser...all things for himself, and none for Kaylen and the rest of us at home..Not even local food!

The big purchase..Our New Car!

We had finally made the decision to buy a new car ..and its the Mazda 3!
It cost $105,888. Its the final choice between Toyota Altis and Mazda3..daddy finally made the decision..it was the lowest price we could get since we started watching out car price since Dec '14.

Signed the order on Sun, 8-March-2015..expected to get the car by End Apr.

GEP 1st Project: Family Tree

We had divided the job to be done week by week..so it wasn't so much a trouble...
