The School Uniform

After I've steamed the rice(to bring along for lunch after lesson) and was getting ready, I received the teacher's sms that she's got fever and will have to postpone today's 'make-up' lesson('cos Thursday's a PH and I'm also not free to go down) to this Friday. However, I've gave her an alternative timing instead and she's not reverted yet...

Did a quick order via a online spree for some Crocs shoes and then we went to meet Janice and Jerome at Kinderland's admin office where we bought our children's uniform today - gotta get new set as they'd be wearing the 'full' uniform from Nursery level onwards. I've only got one piece since they'd have to go on PE(Tees and shorts) attire on alternate days(and also to inculcate neatness in her), I'd rather to have to iron only 1 dress uniform than to have to iron 2 or 3, especially when I'd have to iron the tees as well.

The administrator's on leave, thus a teacher took over and she brought a L size dress for Renee, no lah, where got so kiasu as to buy such a big size! I told her that it's too big and we finally settled for a M size(the length and neck opening are juz nice, so I guess the 'room-iness' would be good for 'ventilation' hahaha). Needless to say, this girl's very happy(but only when I tried it on for her again at home, without her clothes this time and without the distraction of her classmate) and told me that she'd only wanna wear this dress uniform when she learnt about the alternate PE attire days lolz.

Janice had been waking up super late since the school holidays began and so, when I invited her to join us for a snack at Mac's, she said she'd perhaps join us after feeding Jerome his lunch(that was around 2:30pm already). We met Choolin and her kids there instead but as we've not pre-planned on this 'meetup', we didn't stay long with her(she doesnt seemt to have much to talk about anyway, since she's switched school for her children next year) and I went to search for another pair of jeans - not stock, but they've reserved it at Isetan Scotts for me til this Saturday.

Janice phoned at 4:20pm but we both felt that it'll be quite pointless for her to come over since it's already so late and I'd be heading home soon and we decided to call it off, but Renee cried and even over the phone to her "I want aunty Janice and Jerome to come" hahaha.

Took her to Mini Toons to make her happy(actually it's also because I remembered that the Ikea friends cc gets 15% there, hehehe) and bought a solar toy for the car, another 'princess on board' sign for daddy's car and a new set of 'flowers' curtain drop(to replace the current Dora one).
