The past week have been good to me. Although the kids have been a tad under the weather, we managed to do some 'holiday' time-fillers & me some good quality K-drama time.
Last night, I met my KSPS mates again for dinner. Between the 14 of us spread on the Swenson's dinner table, I'm surprised to think that we even managed to get a decent conversation between the laughter & the hallabaloo noise. In other words, yes, it was as simply put - fun. We even started to plan for our next appointment, talk about making up for lost time.
My dear son did us proud by earning himself a spot in the top class of his cohort. Even though his final results were not as satisfying when compared to the mid-year, he was lucky indeed to be placed among the best of his peers. Alhamdulillah. The dad had even gotten ready the assessment books for primary 3 & more reference books for him now that he has an extra science subject under his belt. My tummy is already tightening thinking & anticipating the rigorous practise & revision he would have to go through next year.
The first week of the school holidays went by relatively quickly. The things planned out for them were somewhat limited as Amira is still recovering from her flu cum very bad cough. Amirul met his favourite toy character of the moment when we brought him for the Bakugan meet & greet session at Takashimaya, while Amira had her Princess-moment when I brought her for the highly anticipated Princess show - although I think I expected far too much out of the show & cant help comparing it to the ones we saw in Disneyland, which I felt was far more enjoyable.
My 'East of Eden' drama watch finally took on a good turn (after 25 episodes) now that the baddies (the Shins)are slowly getting what they deserve (go Lee Dong Chul!). I cant say I feel too much excitement about 'Worlds Within'. Although Hyun Bin & Song Hye Gyo are a joy to watch, I still feel the storyline is not as mesmerising & captivating as I thought it would be. Well, it is already halfway through the series at Episode 8,hopefully something exciting could happen & perhaps help escalate the lower than expected viewer ratings & also help boost up my waning interest.
We are taking one day at a time, not planning nor deciding what to do or where to go for the next few weeks. But knowing how our plans always work better in last minute decisions, I'm not too worried about it...:)
