妹妹是个鬼灵精怪 3/3

外头天正在下毛毛雨。 在巴士车上。哥哥:“妈,这里滴水。” 我:“可能是冷气机漏水” 妹妹:“是雨水啦,你们不知道外面在下雨吗?”

妹妹是个鬼灵精怪 2/3

Nikole一家最近从香港回来,买了许多香港零食。外公特地从她家带了一些给我们吃。妹妹吃完,随手把装零食的纸袋丢给外婆。外婆对妹妹说:“自己吃的自己丢。” 妹妹理直气壮地说:“是你开的,当然是你丢咯“ 外婆被她弄得啼笑皆非, 转过头对外公说:“是你带回来的,应该是你丢咯!” 外公笑嘻嘻地说:“这样说来,我要叫那个买的人丢咯。。”

妹妹是个鬼灵精怪 1/3

妹妹是个鬼灵精怪。 常常做出令人意想不到的举动。 讲起话时有时真的一鸣惊人! 在图书馆,妹妹因为坐得不稳而跌了个四脚朝天。哥哥在旁幸灾乐祸,哈哈大笑。幸好妹妹摔的不轻.自个爬了起来。不过看她的神情就知道火山要爆发了。果然,我还来不及开口,妹妹已冲上前摇晃哥哥的椅子,生气地说:“如果换成是你跌倒,我笑你,你会喜欢吗!哥哥哑口无言。我真的有点惊讶。 不知道的人还以为她是大姐姐呢!

Your toy will become my toy

We were shopping for gifts at one of a gift shops. Aislinne had picked a colouring book for herself. Her brother was still struggling what to choose as I told them they could only picked $1-2 item each. "Have you selected what you want?" I asked my 6-year-old. "Gor gor, I can help you." my 3-year-old told her brother. "Nope. I don't need your help." Aldric replied, still haven't decided what he wanted. "Nevermind, your toy will become my toy anyway..."she told her brother... Kids...

Shh..don't tell anybody.

We were inside a public toilet one day. Aislinn was in the toilet doing her 'big business' while I was 'guarding' outside her cubicle. Then someone walked in. "Mummy, don't tell anybody that I am doing big business here ok." Aislinn called out from the cubicle. "Ok, I promised I won't" I chuckled, the lady beside me also gave me a smile.

Saying sorry...

Parenting is no easy feat. Sometimes I am really at my wits' ends. I just don't understand why they can't just listen and stop all the fighting. Constant fighting is a common sight at home and I sometimes just wanted to ignore all those screaming and yelling. But I just have to admit that kids are kids. They can make you cry and laugh. After all, that's what parenthood is all about. Cane can be handy and effective at times. Sometimes it is difficult to discern who is right and who is wrong and I have no choice but to give both of them 'a good treat' each. Once, I took out the cane and beat both of them for hitting each other. "Say sorry to Gor Gor", I told Mei Mei. "Say sorry to Mei Mei", I told Gor Gor. After they apologise to each other, I told them to hug each other. Then I explained to them why I have to beat them. "Did you know why mummy beat you?", I asked them. Both of them nodded their heads. I was relieved that they are willing to admit their wrongs and 'learnt' from their mistakes, though I knew that they will definitely repeat the same mistake again. Then, out of the blue, Mei Mei pouted and cried. I asked her why she cried. "Mummy, you didn't say sorry to Mei Mei." She replied. "Why mummy have to say sorry to u?" I asked her, puzzled. "Because you beat Mei Mei too.".

Our National Pledge, 我们的信约

Aldric loves to recite the Singapore National Pledge (信约) in the Chinese version. I was told that everyone in the class has to recite the pledge every morning. He loves the pledge and would often recite it at home in his loud and clear voice. I am not sure if he truly understand the meaning of the pledge, but I can tell it that he really enjoys reciting. Mummy loves our National pledge too, but mummy still prefer to sing the Pledge. 新加坡信约 我们是新加坡公民, 誓愿不分种族、言语、宗教,团结一致, 建设公正平等的民主社会,并为实现国家之幸福, 繁荣与进步,共同努力。 Singapore's Pledge We, the citizens of Singapore, Pledge ourselves as one united people Regardless of race, language or religion To build a democratic society Based on justice and equality So as to achieve happiness, prosperity and progress for our nation

Mean by Swift, Taylor




Mean by Swift, Taylor

You, with your words like knives and swords and weapons that you use against me
You have knocked me off my feet again got me feeling like I'm nothing
You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard, calling me out when I'm wounded
You, pickin' on the weaker man

Well, you can take me down with just one single blow
But you don't know what you don't know

Someday I'll be living in a big old city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Why you gotta be so mean?

You, with your switching sides and your walk-by lies and your humiliation
You, have pointed out my flaws again as if I don't already see them
I'll walk with my head down trying to block you out 'cause I'll never impress you
I just wanna feel okay again

I'll bet you got pushed around, somebody made you cold
But the cycle ends right now 'cause you can't lead me down that road
And you don't know what you don't know

Someday I'll be living in a big old city
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/t/taylor-swift-lyrics/mean-lyrics.html ]
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Why you gotta be so mean?

And I can see you years from now in a bar, talking over a football game
With that same big loud opinion but nobody's listening
Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things
Drunk and grumbling on about how I can't sing

But all you are is mean
All you are is mean and a liar and pathetic and alone in life
And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean

But someday I'll be living in a big old city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean, yeah
Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Why you gotta be so mean?

Someday, I'll be, living in a big old city
(Why you gotta be so mean?)
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
(Why you gotta be so mean?)
Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
(Why you gotta be so mean?)
And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Why you gotta be so mean?
