I dunno what to say....

sometimes I ask myself, is this the norm? But it's been 2 yrs and I've been nagging till the cow comes home and still he's repeating it again and again and again..... Dh asked me why? is the work so difficult? It's not true, the work is not that difficult for him. He's average in the subject, but not that bad yet. So we could only 'blame' it on his slow writing. He's really slow in writing. Even copying also so slow. How am I gonna help him write faster? Go by the traditional way of rote learning? Or perhaps it's not the handwriting issue? Maybe it's just his attitude? It's getting so tough trying to help him get off all these bad habits. Quote fm someone on the forum, "Can I resign fm motherhood?" sigh...

Lagging...

ok ok I know I know, this is bad! Just two weeks into blogging and I'm already lagging behind. My concious self has been scolding myself inside. But somehow the unconcious side is always in the lead. Hv been so 'blur' and so aimless the last 2 weeks. Tons of things to do and clear, but yet everything seems to be piling up and my time just slips away without achieving anything. Body seems so weak also. sigh...is this sign of aging? Body and mind seems disconnected? Arrrgghhhh....I hate to look at my list of things-to-finish before CNY. Dun seem to be able to tick off any of them yet and it's already 21 Jan!! OMG OMG OMG.......

Up before sunrise...

It's first day of school again. Was so surprised last night when ds1* actually said that he's excited about going back to school. He admitted that it's the first time he felt this way after a long school holiday. Probably I really didn't do much with them this holidays and the weather also didn't permit for much outdoor activities either. Felt a bit guilty that it's over so soon and they're into a really stressful year now. Am keeping my fingers crossed that they'll keep to their promise and cooperate with me. And I'll hv to gather all my energy and put all my focus on them this year. Not trying to be kiasu or what. But just want to prove to them that with focus and determination, they'll able to push themselves to maximise their potential. I trust we can do it! and we will...

Welcome 2008!!

It's the start of a new year again! And this is a 'special' year for me. 'Special' bcos I've reached another turning point in life. Yes, I'm into the big 4 this year. Time flies past so fast that we could easily forget what had happened in our lives. This prompted me to start blogging, to record my thots, my feelings and my views/opinions on things happening around me, before I lose them to aging brain cells! ha...

Anyway, Happy New Year to all that's reading this. Hope to hv enough support to persist in blogging.
