1st Week of School

At the end of the school holidays, Lil Shauna said that she was slightly excited about school. She is in a new class but has some of her old classmates and also her Centris swimming class pal with her. Actually, she was simply excited about using all her new things. Lol. At the end of the 1st week, she still look good and just told me that she enjoys school. She said that her English teacher is super funny. Sounds really good.

Zaky is a totally different story. He wasn't concerned about new things. In fact, he inherited jiejie's old school bag, old textbooks and even her old school shoes. He couldn't care less. He is often a mess anyway. Lol.

School took a toll on the little boy who is not used to waking up that early. By the 2nd day, it was a chore to wake up. Bed time became earlier and earlier at his request. He was totally beat after his 1st encounter with the student care. He doesnt adore school and his reply to whatever that I asked him about school is always "I don't know". I am taking comfort that at least he doesn't hate school  and no tears are involved yet. Probably jiejie's presence helped.

Yday, Daddy Lim fetched them from the student care. He complained that he was dead beat.

When he reached home, he flopped on the floor and complained that his brain and eyes were painful. It wasn't pretense, school life must be too much for the little tiger and he was down with fever. Poor thing.

As a result, we had to postpone the Chinese enrichment class and he had a much needed rest. I was hoping so hard that it wouldn't be a viral fever.

Lil Shauna took advantage that it was Friday and only went to bed at 10pm. Zaky's fever went down after a dose of paracetamol but he was in bed soon after 8pm. Fever or not, student care is tiring.

Finally, we had conquered the 1st week of school and we have 51 weeks more. Haha. I hope it is a matter of getting used for Zaky. It was a short week and he didn't even attend Phonics and Chinese enrichment. I will pray very hard that Zaky will suddenly have a lot more energy next week. Haha.
