Supposed to be meeting Renee's friend again today but I didn't feel like going down town again, especially when the meet-up time's in the morning... Luckily Renee hadn't been too disappointed for not being able to meet up with her friend again and I told her that I'll try to change her S&D class to that of the same as her friend's since her friend would be attending maths classes at the same centre...(now on waitlist on the change of time slot)
Kids these days are learning so much faster than us. Renee's been playing with Papa's Iphone lately and she can even 'control' the features on my mobile better than me! She's always liked to listen to the songs in my MP4 and not wanting her to fiddle with the player, I've only shown her how to move to the next song and I've never let her use it on her own. Last night, I decided to let her have 'full control' of it and taught her how to switch it on and this morning, she's already discovered and using the features on my MP4, some of which I don't even know about, goodness...

Ok ok, back to the main topic, heee, after the usual pre-natal check-up at my gynae's yesterday, we took a cab('cos papa had thought it's gonna be a long wait, so he'd left us there to do some work), not back to home but to Hougang Mall - 'cos our dear girl didn't want to go home yet and I hadn't got my umbrella with me and thus, we couldn't cross over to Paragon/T.S.C(and it's hard to get a cab home from these 2 locations later at night).
Since we were there, we went to the shop where she'd left her pretty hairband behind 1-2 weeks ago but as expected, they didn't have it... Then, at her request, we headed to the Popular bookstore 'cos she wanted to do some 'reading' at the children's section. Although I've warned her that she's not supposed to do that as it's not a library but she wanted to try her luck, hahaha. Indeed, after 2-3 books, we were told that no sitting on the floor to read is allowed but she still wanted to carry on reading the books, hahaha. However, after another couple more books, she began fidgeting and even resorted to half squatting on the floor, hahaha. I told her to get up 'cos it doesn't really matter how she lowered herself, they simply don't allow reading as it's a bookstore, not a library, hahaha. In the end, I urged her again, to go try reading those Enid Blyton's books since she's reading those young readers' very fast(too short). Finally, she agreed to try and after the 1st page, she said she likes it! Aiyoh, if she'd listened to me earlier, she would have gotten the Enid Blyton's titles instead of those she's put on her X'mas list(which she finished reading all the 5 in-a-set within less than 1/2 hour!) and could have enjoyed longer reading now...
I had earlier requested her cousin Wayne gor gor to keep those Enid Blytons' books we've all gotten for him in the past(think I've told pc to keep too) and so, I didn't want to waste getting them for Renee yesterday but today, they confirmed that they've already given those books away... Nevermind, I just have to try and get a few first, hopefully these couple of days(not too many as we'd be moving real soon) for her reading pleassure, :)
