Mandarin speaker to be

Since the school I am attending is a Mandarin speaking school, I got to learn this whole new language that Mummy thinks is beneficial to me. She was worried that I will have no clue for the first 3 months, but in fact, I know more than what she thinks. So far I can say:

*Lee Lao Shi Zao (Good morning Miss. Lee)
*Ping Guo (Apple)
*Hao Chi (Yummy)
*Bu Yao (No need/ don't want)
*Xiao Peng You (Little friends)
*Zai Jian (Good bye)

I could even sing a song in Mandarin that Mummy can actually understand the words:

Tai yang gong gong, tai yang gong gong, ni zai nar? ni zai nar? kuai dian kuai dian chu lai, kuai dian kuai dian chu lai, (something something- Mummy can't figure out what words go in here) wor, (something something) wor.

Daddy's webcam

Daddy's computer is really cool, the webcam function has a gadget that allows you to do some funny stuff on the face, we had a lot of fun playing with it! See!

No big no small (無大無細)

One afternoon when I woke up from my nap....

Me: Mummy!! Mummy!!!!!!!
Mummy: Coming! (shouting from outside)
Me: Mummy!!! Mummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mummy: Coming! (shouting from outside, still)
Me: LILLLLLLLLLLLLLLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mummy (coming in): What did you just call me??
Me: ....... Lily, Mummy.

Please help my Mummy and Daddy

Ever since Zhe Zhe left, I had been really uncooperative. I scream and shout a lot, refuse a lot of things a lot, and in general difficult. Mummy and Daddy are not very happy with that, and today, while Daddy was reading me the Little Princess book, at the end of the book they had the 'other collections', I pointed to one of the book and said 'Daddy buy me this one, Bean Bean no more crying'. So does anyone want to help my Mummy and Daddy by buying me the book so I can try to be good again?

I want this one

Recently I have this desire to tickle Mummy's foot, I like to sneak my hand under her foot and tickle her when she is off guard. Sometimes I will even squash her foot down with my body so she can't move and tickle her with 2 hands!

Teaching Mummy

Since I am going to be an older sister soon, I should start to learn how to be authoritative. Now I like to tell Mummy what to do, like 'Mummy stay there, I come back soon' or 'Mummy close your eyes, good girl!'. Yesterday when Mummy asked me what I want to do on the weekend.....

Me: 'Disneyland'
Mummy: 'But it's raining'
Me: 'Use umbrella'
Mummy: laughing 'But it is no fun to go there when it is raining'
Me: 'Go Ocean Park'

Can't believe she needs to be taught what to do...

Message for Daddy

Daddy is away for business trip for 9 days in Germany. 9 days is a long time and I don't get to talk to Daddy much at all because of the time difference and that Daddy is constantly in meetings. So Daddy I have a message for you.. so you can watch this whenever you have time.

First week at school

For our first week at school, parents are allow to accompany us for the first 3 days. On the third day I had Daddy and Mummy there with me. Also on the third day I tried to go on a school bus for the first time! I had been wanting to go on the school bus since day one, and I didn't cry all the way from home to school! There are 2 bus aunties accompanying us in the bus, and Mummy specifically asked one of them to sit next to me since she is really worried about me being on a bus without her, and number 2 I am a super wiggly worm and I can't sit still anywhere. Things were fine and I love school and on the forth day Mummy told me she won't be there in the classroom with me and I understood and said 'Bye Bye Mummy, Mummy waiting outside'. But as soon as the door opened into a gap, we saw the teacher guarding the door with her arms and legs and the children from inside were screaming and crying and trying to run out and escape from the classroom, one of them even knocked me over and the teacher dragged me in. I cried immediately since it was so scary. Then children were knocking and banging on the door trying to get out.. it was a scary sight... but I didn't cry as much as the others, and I understood the teacher saying Mummy is outside waiting for me. When I came out, Mummy asked me if I cried, and I said 'Wah wah, Mummy Mummy, like that'. But my eyes weren't red and puffy so Mummy was relieved. Tomorrow is the start of the normal school hours, so 3 hours of school. Hope I will be ok..

Can you see me in the school bus? That is my first day in it!

First day at school

It's my first day at school today! I am officially a Pre-Nursery student at KiangSu and Chekiang School, with uniforms and school bag! Natalie is in the same class as me and we were placed to sit next each other by the teacher. Mummy also came in my class today, she is allowed there for 3 days, after that I will be on my own, which I guess I don't mind since I enjoyed school a lot, and I can already say 'Lao Shi'. Mummy showed me the school bus when one went pass us and I wanted to get on it straight away, even though I know that Mummy will not be on the same bus as me. I also explored the classroom and the playroom on my own without Mummy. When we were having roll call, the girl next to me was crying, and I said to her 'Don't worry, no crying.' . However, I lost control and cried like crazy when I had to leave the playroom... all the teachers came to console me but all I wanted to do was to push them away and have them to leave me alone.... I think no one was pleased about that....

Before going to school, Mummy and Daddy gave me Lai Sees from them and from Gong Gong and Po Po and said some auspicious words to me

This is my classroom! I get to sit next to Natalie for my school year!
