22/12/07 Winter Solstice Festival (Part 1)

22/12/07 (Saturday) Sunny Day

After reading Ellyn’s post on – Kylie’s preschool books, I start panic. Why?? Because in another week’s time, is back to school time! I have not enroll Xuan Xuan in any preschool yet. How?

No panic, no panic, daddy said we will be going to the nearest kindergarten near my house to get it done TODAY! *very confidence that it can be done* we really don’t have much time to visit & compare the kindergarten. Without much thought, the only criteria for us to choose a preschool for Xuan Xuan is the distance from my house, which preschool located nearest to our house win us!

After breakfast, my 2 girls are ready for the move!


Before we left the house, daddy asked me to bring additional RM100 just in case. *We heard of few preschools’ registration fees ranging from RM 800-RM1000 & monthly fees ranging from RM 200-250/month. According to my father, MCA preschool’s monthly fee is only RM120/month as this preschool is sponsored by MCA, so we brought RM500-600 for registration.* We then proceed to this nearest preschool which is only 5-10mins walk from my house. We register Xuan Xuan straight away.

Hah! You won’t believe it! We have to ‘patah balik’ as we didn’t bring enough money for the registration! The registration fee cost us RM700 *Paiseh betul*. No choice, we go back home to top up the money & photocopy Xuan Xuan’s birth cert then we march back to the preschool…

Finally… registration done & these are the things that cost us RM700. *Exclude the school bag - choice of my Xuan Xuan*


Xuan Xuan is so proud of getting all her books & uniforms… she tells everybody that she will be going to school soon! *Hopefully she can take it easily as she is a shy & timid*.

mama of 2littlefellas,

Yes, extremely excited at every single milestones! I wanted to start my 2 gals early but my parents said if started too early children will get bored in the future when it comes to real school time... so no choice, we have to respect the old...

Kelly, if given a choice to turn back the clock, I wouldn't have enrolled Kylie to kindergarten May this year. She started to get sick, almost everyday she is on medication till November. So, better take good care of your child and btw, they will get stronger after being exposed to all those flu, cough & fever. Hopefully lah. I am hoping that Kylie will be stronger but she is now having flu again.
