That time of the year is here - PSLE

PSLE. Only those parents and primary 6 students living in Singapore will fear this four letter. To some it even brings them nightmare and neverending stress! Parents and students prepare themselves 1 year in advance - armed with loads and loads of tuition and revisions.

Well, my Bella is taking PSLE this year. I know I am blessed with a daughter that's smart or I would say above average student (must know lah genes from who...ahem!) and we are both being very calm when it comes to PSLE. I always remind her don't be too hard on herself. I tell her it's alright...don't worry too much as long as you do your best. While everyone is slogging away...we still enjoy our weekends out and went for holiday in Korea in June. (Relax lah...I always believe that if you can ma can loh...if cannot force also no point ma right?)

Today is the second paper which is Maths. Bella was happy that she did well in her English papers yesterday! (Yay!! Way to go princess!! Few more days to go and it's FREEDOM!) I'm looking forward to the end of PSLE so we can plan more holidays. I love going on holidays with my kids. They bring me so much happiness!

Well, let's pray and hope that my princess and all primary sixers do well in their PSLE. Good luck and gambateh!

Note : Of course what I said may not be the best approach / way to other parents. It is purely my point of view and I am not saying my way is the best way either. I am sure that as a parent, you know your kids better and also the right way to encourage them to do their best.

Mid-Autumn Festival 2013

It's the time of the year again where we gather with family and share the sweetness of mooncakes (and also gossips..hehehe). We Chinese always have a reason to gather and eat, eat, eat! 

Tonight over here at our place, the weather is extremely windy! We couldn't light up the lantern long enough to take pictures. This picture was taken after dinner...after we clean up everything. 


We had BBQ and steamboat for dinner. (Every time also same thing...getting a bit lame and bored dee. Must ask hubby to come up with new idea liao!)

Happy Mid Autumn festival everyone (Even though it's summer all year long here in Singapore) and also happy mooncake feasting!

STGCC 2013 in MBS.


Just last week we went to the Singapore Toys, Games & Comic Convention in MBS. Ticket per person for one day pass is $19.00. It's our first time attending STGCC and let me assure you...the money is well spent.
The place was packed with people cosplaying and mostly fans of toys and comics / animes. To be honest, i'm totally not a fan of either. I'm just tagging along to kepoh and also to see people dressing up as their favourite anime characters.
So when both Bella and Belle was busy looking and judging the cosplayers (is it called cosplayers?) and naming them, i'm also busy admiring (but mostly critisizing la...those of you who knows me well will understand...hehe).
We did manage to take pictures of the cosplayers and also some of the exhibit there.
Bella was suppose to blog about this event but then PSLE prelim and the actual exam is just around the corner, i think it is better that I share it with you guys (sorry didn't give much info cause I really have zero knowledge about all this).
Hope you like the pictures!
