Definately not joking! She made this invitation card herself! So pretty!

Singa Mom

Day : Saturday
Time : 1045hrs
Place : Foodcourt
Why am I there: Waiting for the kitty to finish her Chinese enrichment class.
This has been my routine for the past 2 years i think, which is not bad actually coz for that 1.5 hrs, I have my own "me" time to read, chill while waiting for her.
(There are also days where I am training for races, hence it is a mad rush of run/cycle -> rush home-> bring kitty to class.)
MummyHelen always tell me... Poor violet, so many classes, so stress (!!!!), let her relax a bit lah..
"-___-
But to me, the kitty is not the least bit stressed! ( ok, maybe sometimes practicing the piano with me stresses her coz I'm piano monster) She always go to her classes willingly and happily! She never complains that she have to do the homework and does it all in an instant. She has friends and different classes and I always see them having a good time learning together!
Maybe the caregiver ( me, mummyangie, occasionally mummyhelen will be stressed coz we always have to get her to the classes on time~ha!)
My friends call me the tiger mom... dragon mom (coz of my tattoos) but I feel that I am just a normal mom who is preparing my little kitty to take on the world out there.
Probably in wow terms, I am helping the kitty to get the right skills (classes) , gear (books, maybe?) , hp at the optimal ( eat right, rest well, stay healthy) and maintain her agility through sports (swimming, ballet) to help her gain her xp steadily.
As to wether she belongs to the horde or alliance, it is too early to tell. Probably having a set of horde (smellycat) and alliance (me) parents will turn violet to be hybrid maybe- ha!

Was at the gas station the other day and this mag caught my eye... The Primary one special! Being curious, I bought it and I must say it's pretty informative!
The standards for primary 1 have definitely changed a lot! Standard's Much higher! I would say my kitty is probably 75% ready for the Big P1 at her standard now....

This was done one day when I wanted to gauge her standard before letting her see her spelling list for school.... Let her have a pretest ! I find it quite funny actually with all her misspells . I'm not worried that she didn't know the words then coz I know she will learn it eventually (and she got 9/10 for this spelling test) but it suddenly dawn to me that spelling lists for kids now is tough!

The kitty's happy face after school! I love to see this face! =D

Anyway, this is just a ranting post... So to my Friends who always call me tiger/dragon/ kiasu mom... I am not..

I am SINGA (lion)-Mom!! *roar*

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahha!!!

Absence makes the heart grow fonder....

Nowadays with technology, it's really easier to stay in touch .

The previous years, whenever smellycat is away, I have to wait for him to call me, hope to get an email for him etc etc...

Fast forward to 2012, we can watsapp, skype, FaceTime and the distance don't seem so bad anymore!

The kitty really looks forward to FaceTime with smellycat at night (due to a 7 hour time difference) and they can chat via FaceTime for like almost 1 hour!!
He will chat with her while playing game on his iPad and she will blabber blabber on to him about her day, make funny faces at him and even asked him to play scissor paper stone with her....zzzzzzz

Occasionally, smellycat will tell her to call me coz he have some questions to ask me and then it's back to the cats world.

Digging their noses together...


Silly Kitty is so tickled by Smellycat's monkey faces!

And then last night, I face timed smellycat and the first thing he asked me...

Smellycat : where is violet?
San-d: She's at your mom's place.
Smellycat: Oh....

*after 2mins*

Smellycat: hey I gotta go... Dinner time....
San-d: ........

Kitty: 1 hr face time.
San-d : 2 mins face time.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz........

Swan Lake

Violet pointed to this kick ass Swan Lake poster at her ballet school last week and asked if i can bring her to see... Since I couldn't bring her to Disney on ice anymore and also to cultivate her interest in ballet so why not?
I've never been to a ballet performance before and I'm pleasantly surprised! The Singapore Dance Theater puts up a wonderful performance! I'm glad I came! =D


Hopefully one day the kitty will turn into a swan =p




Kitty's really excited!




Our first Ballet and more to come!
