Art Class...not for children but older
Recently, Mom heard people commented that howcome Singapore has such a good education but nothing on Art for older children? Well she knows there is a NAFA, LASALLE, that's it! Hmm...this set her thinking, yah hor? She always see "Art for Children 5 - 7 yrs old" or "Pottery or Ceremic Class for Children" blah...blah...blah...
She thought maybe she been living in the well for too long...Actually, there are courses for older children or Teenages even adult. In general, most adult Singaporeans are busy working to bring home more bacon so much so that their children are able to attend enrichment classess of their interest. Do they? They had neglected their own needs or hobby and interest.
So here are the few links for parents who are interested to enrol their Teenages kids for Art classes, of course Adult are welcome too:

Tennis Training
Today, I've got a letter from MN for Tennis Training next month:(
Initially I was very excited about being selected but upon receiving the long awaited letter, I told Mom that "I don't want to take part" reason being I'm afraid to be "hit" by the tennis ball. Yes! It sounded ridicules but I was hit by a tennis ball during recess sometime ago so the incident tell me "don't play play..."
Mom explained to me that I am selected because I have showed to my teacher that I am good and I CAN DO IT. It is my honor and I should not give up without trying. Dad added that Tennis is a good sport and he will practice with me.
I'm convinced by my parent and agreed to go for IT.

no PE no Music lesson
I am really upset that it isn't PE lesson on Monday because our class made a lot of noise while doing filing so MN deny us of PE lesson. I am very disappointed because I love PE lesson very much...Hope we learn our lesson so that we can have our PE lesson next week.
This is not all, every Tuesday is our Music lesson but it was changed to "Math Test". I know my teacher is doing this for our good and benefit but Music lesson is yet my another favourite class. I am really dishearted.
I know. I know. Mom always say "Study first, Play later". I guessed my teacher is sharing the same feeling as my Mom. Hee! Hee!
Actually I like to study too! Especially with my Mom.

goodbye to my lovely school...
After both my English and Chinese teacher left my center respectively, then soon after during the month of Feb, Mum & Dad decided to withdraw me from this center and transfer me to another center that located sightly further away from our house. With later time slot and no shelter along the journey to this new center, Mum & I have lots of adjustment to make this term and hopefully, we can settle quickly to this new time table and school.
I like my new school but I still missed my old center a lot but luckily Mum took a picture for my remembrance... I apologised for posting such a "plain-looking" photo but my classroom has been this state since January...oh yes, the string of hongbao fish only hung up a day before CNY :(
