Our new addition to the family - Part 2

It's been 10 days now, Daisy is indeed very active turtle but not T-Rex. Most of the time, T-Rex is hiding inside the shell, and not moving at all. I guess he is still not adapted to this new environment. Both don't like turtle sticks nor bread, and I am kind of worried how long they can survive without food.





So, my kids hired a "guardian" to look after their "pets" while we are away during day time.

Kata dasar for Joshua is 'shua'

Every Thursday, my boy will have rencana in school. So, last nite when we go thru the sentences for today's rencana, I thought juz test him how far he knows on the kata dasar for those words. So, here I go....
Me: What is the kata dasar for menulis?
Jo2: tulis
Me: What is the kata dasar for memelihara?
Jo2: pelihara (this one I knew jiejie hint him)
Me: What is the kata dasar for mengajar?
Jo2: ajar
Me: good.....What is the kata dasar for mengikuti?
Jo2: ikuti
Me: no, just the word 'ikut' only......don't include the "i" behind, ok.
Jo2: ok.......and b4 I proceed, my son said the kata dasar for Joshua is "shua-shua"
Me: no, Joshua is your name, and there's no kata dasar.
Jo2: then why u always only call me "shua-shua" leh?

Registration is done!

Finally, I went to confirm Jo2's seat at Union Primary School on the 3rd of Aug 2010. I did the same registration procedure 3 years back for Jo1, and paid RM1 for the badge. The orientation will be held on the 30 December 2010, and there is a profile form to fill up, school's rules to read thru, and lists of books to buy. To me, I prefer to buy the books now rather than wait until the day where there will be so crowded or some books might be not available/ sold out. Unlike Jo1's time, Jo2 is in 1J(Jingga) which the the 4th class. It's no longer on the first come first serve basis, but according to the child's date of birth. Basically, those who are born in the month of Jan & Feb will be in the 1st class, and Mar & April in 2nd class....etc etc. I noticed that there are only 22 students in Jo2's class.
Jo2's first reaction when I told him about this news: "YEAH! now I can go buy buy things from the school mini store." (Jiejie told him about this store in school selling stationery, and there is always students in long queue buying things) Faint...faint...faint.
