Big BOD and small winnie school bag

 For this coming new school year, JJ bring his new school bag BOD THE BUILDER to school.

I intend to brough a new schol bag for JJ since last year. cos the old school WINNE THE POH was too small for him.  I am not saiding that the old school bag was not good and etc.. but was too small. It only able to put on one set of changing cloth plus some memo from the school. Thats all.

So the problem arise when reading day where JJ had to bring his reading story book and parent communication book to school.  Means not enough….. i need to brough a folder for him to put on all this things.  There was one day where the malay teacher want to return all his last term book to the parent. U know what the teacher done? The teacher fold all the book into half and put on the Winnie school bag.

So end up the book become like ” Kam Cai ” (Cheap vegi). When i saw it, oh… my god.. all the book.. but luckily still able to read and do revision. If not… waste my  money.

The BOD school bag was one of the item i brough from the Grand year end sale. the original price was RM79.90. But after discount 50%… it only costed me only RM39.95.  And the inside was big and hopefully.. can last for 3 years lah. (If JJ know how to take card on it)….

Lastly, with the new school bag …. i hope JJ are able to enjoy his school day for this year. (KG5)

happy school day for the whole year… yessssss

Recently, i knew one Mummy who is doing home school with her children.

I came across home school before but i really have not idea how they conduct. So, when i knew this new mummy who is doing  this… so greatlah… i have the chance to knew more about it.

Of course, I am not going to do home school with my 2 boys. Just want to knew for more information.. thats all.

It was an coinccident for this mummy to start  home school. Her husband was transfer to Germany ( Ohh… my boy birth country) for a short period, and she did not plan to send her boy to school due to this reason ( only 1 year ). So she started  home school when their stay in Germany. Up to her surprise, the result was good. And she continue after they came back to Malaysia.

Yesterday, i visited the mummy and would like to know more about this and thet material they use for teaching aid. When i reach her house, the 2 boys was doing their homework. The mummy show me the books, worksheet and some other materials.

According to her, there are 2 main home school syllabus – sonlight and alphaomega. Both of them are ok.. depend on what u what u kids to do. For me, i am more concent on their Englisg subject.

The mummy do show me what they use for thier english syllabus. The kids need to read a fews story books and answer some of the question from the worksheet.  For me, it was great where i am able to use the books  for extra reading  for my boys.

According to the mummy, anyone are able to order the catalouge through the wed site where is FOC. And for thoes who interest… can order from the catalouge according to age and grade.

So mostly, i will order some of books from there… and i will let u knew how is the result..after my boys read the books.

My julie paper box

Actually, this is a biscuits box that made from paper.

Last week, i ask hubby what should i do with the box, it seem like a waste that we through it away.  Later, hubby decided to cut the paper into half. Guess what we use for the box.

For the 1st half, i use it as a dustbin throwing some dry rubbish like paper, plastic and etc. For the other half, i use it to keep some of my stuff like tisu paper, calculator, pen and etc.  

Good idea.. yeh.. now, another new box coming in. So this time, i will use to keep some of my cross stitch box inside. So do try my way on how to recycle the box.

I am sure all of u face the same problem like me. Face with lots of plastic bag and du know what to do with them. For the big size plastic bag is ok cos we can use for throwing our rubbish. but for thoes medium and small size, is a problem for me to keep them. But now i find a way to reuse it.

Answer is : i give all thoes medium and small size plastic bag to one of the hawker that i get to know from  morning wet market.  She was a nice and kind lady. She always told her customer not to use plastic bag due recycle.  At first, i really du know she collect from some of her customer this reuse plastuc bag untill i saw it by my ownself. I ask her what are u doing with all this. She said:” Most of the people will throw it away .. and instend to throw why not u just give it to me and i reuse them.”

What a good idea… and i told her u should tole me early and now i know what to do with this all stupid plastic bag. Thanks god.. find a owner to use it.

I was glad that where there are more and more people reliase how the recycle was so importane to our earth. Beside that, i was also very disappointed where i know most of the people not practice it. So friends… SAID NOT TO PLASTIC BAG.

my boy lantern for this year

There are 4 latern for my boys this year. This is the 2nd time they celebrate fuul moon festival since they are born. (Poor boy cos we never celebrate when our stay in Germany).

The above picture show the lantern for my boy this year. There are 3 belong to JJ and one belong to JH.

The small gray and blue latern was made by jj on his art class and kindy. I personally like the blue latern very much… cos is cute and very creativity.

Both of my kids like Kung Fu Panda movie very much. At the first place, they do request me to buy the kung fu latern for them…. but i though maybe i can buy it later. But when i intent to brought it and it was already sold out. Too bad ..And now i know.. next year should brought the hot sell latern at the first place when it out in the market.

So i only got the Matser Si fu latern for JJ. But for JH, i fell very sorry cos i can’t get the Kung Fu Panda latern for him… so he have to use his brother old fish latern. Hope he don’t mind.

Nowdays, i use to carry a recycle bag when i go market and shooping.

Met some of the aunty and they keep on asking me “why i carry a bay? why don;t u use plastic bag? Is easy for us .. and just through when u reach rome?”

I try to explain to them about recycle but they still cannot accept the concept. nevermind. Just do my part and reduce using plastic bag.

Nothing for this post… just will want to show how nice my recycle bag..

I purchase this bag at one of the jusco shopping mall. There are few colours for u to choose… and u only pay RM4.90 for it.  I personaly like this bag very much.. cos is suit for short travel especially 2 days 1 night trip.

Here are some of other recycle bags….

1.  For the Brown bag that with some lago at the top was given by some of my friends. Don;t like it cos the hander is too short and not suitable for market.

2. the Green Citta yago bag… was given by yoga centre. I like to use this bag for market cos is easy to carry and can put a lot of things inside.

Last time, i use to carry a bag whrere i  put all my kids stuff inside..like pampers, cloth and etc. But now, i carry only this green bag and put all inside. Since my old bag already “kaputt” (damage) so.. now save money ..just use this green bag will do.

3. the Blue tesco bag- where i got it at tesco.. and for thoes TESCO card member- if u bring u recycel bag for shooping, u are able to gain extra point for u card. Can’t remember how much the point u will got.  so for this bag i only use when i shop at TESCO.

Actually, i still use plastic bag for some of the stuff that i brought form market.. i try before where i brought soya and did not request a plastic bag.. END up all my soya “tupah” and all my bag wet.. so.. still think for some way on how to reduce using plastic bag. Any ideas?
