A gift

Well, this gift which I redeemed from my Nestle points came just on time. My girl came back for the weekend and she was greeted by this brand new handphone. It's for her as she did well for her SPM. I was indeed proud that she could do well even without any tuition classes. Furthermore, she studied in a Chinese school when she was in the primary school.


She has been studying in Inti for almost 4 months and will be finishing her first semester at the end of June. But she won't be continuing her A-Level as she will come back for her Form 6. We are financially burdened as both her sisters are studying overseas. So with her decision to stay in Ipoh, it will lessen our burden.



And I have got a new cover for my iPad..The red cover has worn out..

    As long as your daughter is happy to study form 6, I am sure she will do her best for STPM too. What is her ambition?

    Doing her form 6 will enable her to spend more time with her family and that is really nice. She will be able to eat homecooked food too.

    Form6 not much burden to the family. Not all can effort to study abroad. There are so many college out there, some.student and parents choose for fame not really care about their studies.

    My brother was studying in Canada and my sister was in Australia when I finished my Form 5. I was hoping to go overseas like them after form 5 but my parents were financially tied up to their necks! So I went out to work and paid for my own evening classes until I graduated with Diploma. During my mid 20s, i finally went to US to pursue my degree studies after my siblings had returned.

      Going overseas so late in my life had its benefits too. I was well supported by my parents and siblings, so I lived like a luxurious student in posh condo and flew everywhere in US during term breaks! What a terror I was!

    I am wondering how many million points you collected from Nestle to redeem a wonderful phone! Congratulations to your daughter for her good results and do share my story with her!!

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
