A New Term Of Enrichment Class

Today marked the commencement of a new term of enrichment class for me. It is a weekly an hour session between 2.30pm to 3.30pm - not the most ideal timing coz I usually take my afternoon nap around 2pm-3pm. Mommy’s solution is to make me take my nap at around 10am-11am so that I can wake up at around 12pm-1pm.

In order to achieve that, Mommy thought of a plan – which is to make me sleep earlier on the night before and then wake me up early and bombard me with activities.

A busy Morning
Last night, Mommy put me to bed at around 9.30pm. And she woke me up at 6.30am this morning while I was still in my dreamland… =(. I didn’t want to wake up but Mommy knew my “weakness” – she asked me whether I would like to do some painting. My eyes lit up with delight when I heard that… =). I had fallen right into her “trap” unknowingly.

Daddy woke up at 7.30am and we prepared to go out for breakfast. We took a bus ride to Chinatown Point coz there is a greater variety to choose from. The bus ride was a short one (lasted only 5 minutes). If only the ride was longer, we could have went up to the upper deck to enjoy a better view.

After much consideration, we finally settled down in Swensen’s (coz Mommy wanted to take a break from Coffee Bean’s breakfast). Mommy brought along a small pack of corn flakes and a flask of cold fresh milk so that I had something to snack with before the breakfast was served. Mommy had the Florida toast set while Daddy had the omelet set. The toast tasted great – especially with the stuffed ham and cheese. I had some of the toast, egg and sausage.

Aunty Angelia (Daddy’s colleague) happened to be in the area and dropped by to say hi. And I was introduced to Trinity JieJie (Aunty Angelia’s daughter). Trinity is 10 months older than me. Daddy said that we might end up being schoolmate or even classmate when we attend primary school in the future (since we stay very near to each other and there isn’t many schools around our area to choose from). My stranger anxiety is much better than before as I allowed Aunty Angelia to place me on her lap and I was willingly to shake hands with them.

After biding farewell to Aunty Angelia, we went to China Square for a walk. By the time we arrived back home, it was already 11am and I was really getting tired. After drinking a bottle of milk, I knocked out as per Mommy’s plan.

My New Enrichment Session
Daddy dragged me out of bed at around 1pm and we set off for my new enrichment session. We had another half an hour to spare when we arrived at Pasir Ris. And we seek refuge in Aunty Kelly’s place. I managed to consume my lunch there. Sharwyn was early too and she came up to look for Gabriel as well. Other than Gabriel and Sharwyn, Quinn and Jeannieve were there for the session too.

It is a flashcard-based program that focuses on memory training. I was the most attentive toddler during the class coz Mommy had been flashing flashcards to me occasionally.

After the class, I hanged around to play with my friends for a short while before Daddy and Mommy rushed off for their lunch.
