To Excel - Part 1

Sekarang ni kan musim exam SPM. At the same time, last few weeks, musim ambil report card & majlis penyampaian hadiah. Time tu ramai friends wish good luck to SPM candidates, update pasal pencapaian anak sekolah & upload pic anak ambil hadiah dalam FB.

Impress gak... terdetik dalam hati, pandai² anak² kawan aku. Ada yang baru balik oversea after 4 years, balik sini anak darjah 1, BM berterabur, gi hantar tuition, akhir tahun dapat pencapaian terbaik untuk kertas BM. I just wonder actually what happen to other kids yang memang bertutur BM di rumah & luar rumah? Do kids nowadays even Standard 1 kids, actually need tuition to excel?

Err sambung nanti lah yek.

Parenthood Talk

Yesterday after work & picking up Honey at the nursery, I went to Honey's favorite teacher's house which I called Kak Sal for the 1st time. Actually she had been absent for 2 days, Tuesday & Wednesday. Other teachers at the nursery told me that she wasn't well. So I decided to visit her. Actually I've been wanted to go to Kak Sal's house for quite sometimes now, since she has always offered taking care of Honey not only at the nursery, but I don't have proper reason to do so. So when she didn't show up at the nursery on Wednesday, I guessed I should visit her then.

She's Honey's favorite teacher because Honey only wants to be attended by her. Last 2 days, when I sent Honey to the nursery, Honey would cry because I passed her to other teachers, not Kak Sal since Kak Sal wasn't there. Somehow despite being sent to the nursery almost everyday, Honey's very selective. She refuses to be with just anybody. She meets the other teachers almost everyday too, just like she meets Kak Sal but somehow she only wants to be with Kak Sal.

So the statement that every baby is unique is very true. For me, it's very surprising to see how Honey develops her own character despite the environment where she has grown up. Before I thought we parents were 100% responsible to determine our children characters by providing the right environment & example. Now I know that even 1 year old kid is smart enough to has her own preference regardless her small world that is provided by her parents.

Yesterday at Kak Sal's home we did discuss about this, about how babies can have their own preference & character. The owner of the nursery, Husna, is quite strict & try to discipline the kids while on the other hand Kak Sal prefer to be more flexible towards kids. As for me, I'm glad that Honey is trained to adapt to both situation. Glad that there's someone like Kak Sal with her full of sifat keibuan & Husna with her role as the pengetua taska.

Ok lah I have more to say actually on this matter... so will continue later if the time & mood permit, insyaAllah of course.

Oh Nasi Goreng

Nasi goreng ni aku namakan nasi goreng campak...


Sebabnya campak je bahan² dalam kuali, jadi lah nasi goreng ni. Very easy. Bahan² pun guna leftover yang hari Ahad punya je. Tengok ada nasi sejuk & sambal ayam dalam peti ais, Honey pun dah tido, so sempat lah masak nasi goreng ni before JD balik keje.

Tumis bawang putih & bawang merah, campak cili api, campak garam. Separuh orang ramas dulu nasi dengan garam, tapi aku malas. Pastu campak ayam yang dah dipotong kecil, kemudian campakkan nasi. Gunakan sudip untuk hancurkan nasi yang berkepal. Pecahkan telur dalam nasi tadi, gorenglah sampai telur betul² masak. Siap. Oh takde sayur sebab malas nak potong. Huhuu. Sebenarnya ada je lobak yang dah distim & blend kasar dalam peti ais, Honey punya. Lupa. Kalau teringat, boleh lah campak sekali masuk dalam nasi goreng ni.

Tu pun, masa masak nasi goreng ni terganggu gak sebab Honey tido tak lena. Ada lah dalam 2 kali, tengah² masak, matikan api gi tengok Honey kat hall sebab dengar dia merengek. Kalau biarkan api takut ralit tengok Honey, hangus plak kan.

Walaupun simple, rasanya sedap tau. Hehee puji masakan sendiri. At least menepati lah selera aku. Ni tengok gambar pun, perut jadi lapar.
